Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

"Aye, that's true. At the beginning, due to slow production, we could only supply our own needs.

But things were different later on. The craftsmen became more and more skilled, and more and more workshops were built.

So the output is getting bigger and bigger.

In addition to being transported to Japan for construction.

I also plan to use it to repair the road this year, which will save me a lot of money."

When Li Shen was repairing the road, he had to put iron bars to fix it, because the quality of the cement made by Li Shen was not that good.

Put iron bars to prevent cracking and for firmness.

In this way, Li Shen used a lot of iron bars.

The money spent on materials over the years is incalculable.

If you use your own iron and steel, you can save a lot of money.

"You really don't plan to sell it in the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a little surprised that Li Shen didn't intend to sell it.

This kind of thing that can both take revenge and make money, how could his son, who loves money so much, not do it?

"Aye, are you sure you want me to sell the steel to the Tang Dynasty? If so, the first place I'll talk to is the Ministry of Industry."

Li Shen looked at his father and asked.

Of course, he was the first to get the moon because he was close to the water, and the amount used by the court was the largest.

The army's equipment needs to be replaced every once in a while.

Most of them are due to rust or damage.

Especially the imperial guards. There are more than 200,000 imperial guards in Chang'an City. Their weapons and equipment are a big business.

But the key point is that 80% of the share of this big business was provided by the Changsun family, which also made the Changsun family earn a lot of money.

Li Shimin immediately understood what Li Shen meant. If he really let Li Shen go to negotiate, wouldn't that be robbing the Changsun family of their wealth?

How am I going to explain this to the Queen when the time comes?

Li Shimin was stumped by Li Shen's question.

Just now I wanted Li Shen to sell steel at a low price, but now I don’t know what to say.

You can't tell Li Shen to go grab it, or not to sell it? Wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?

When Li Shimin was in danger, Li Chengqian said to Li Shen:

"By the way, Tenth Brother, I heard that you went to Zhinu's house. I wonder what you were doing there?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the subject was immediately changed.

"Brother, I just missed my ninth brother, so I went to see him."

Li Shen began to talk nonsense.

"Then what is the meaning of the letter included in the memorial you gave me?"

Li Shimin asked immediately.

"This..." Li Shen felt that there was something wrong with his father's tone.

I was a little impulsive. I blamed Li Shimin for being partial, so I wanted to disgust my father on impulse.

But looking back now, it was a mistake that I will regret forever.

Isn't this a clear deception to my father? I designed the box to be discovered.

After so many years, if Li Shen didn't know who the undercover agent was around him, then all his time would have been in vain.

You can be honest and upright, but you cannot be ignorant of who belongs to whom.

It was he who asked Wang Xuance to burn the carriage.

"Don't worry, you can take your time to edit it." Li Shimin said leisurely, leaning back in his chair.

"Then listen to me, Aye... No, listen to me, Aye, explain."

Li Shen almost told the truth.

"What do you say."

“Yes, this is what happened, um… Brother Jiu told me himself.

Yes, that’s right, Brother Nine admitted it himself.”

Li Shen really needs to be better for himself, as he could actually come up with such a ridiculous lie.

"Zhi Nu admitted it himself?" Not to mention Li Shimin, even Li Chengqian didn't believe it.

How could someone frame someone else? When he was almost successful, he admitted it. Did he finally find his conscience or go crazy?

"That's right, it was Brother Jiu who admitted it himself. When I went to visit Brother Jiu, he told me that he was the one behind this.

He felt sorry for me, and then he admitted it. "Li Shen nodded.

"Li Shen!!"

Before Li Shen could continue his story, he heard Li Shimin's angry shout.

Li Shen was frightened.

"Do you think I'm old and confused? I'll believe whatever you say.

Do you think I'm so gullible?

I tell you, my mind is clear and my body is still healthy.

If you don't believe me, I don't mind challenging you to a duel to verify it."

"No, no, no, Aye is still strong and energetic. I don't mean to compete with him. I am definitely not Aye's opponent."

After hearing this, Li Shen quickly waved his hands and thought, if you want to leave I should just say so. You even call it a duel, only a fool would duel with you.

"Hmph, if that's the case, then why don't you tell the truth." Li Shimin snorted coldly.

Li Shen thought about it, his eyes turned and a plan came to his mind. His face changed to a gloomy look, and he said slowly:

"Father, I actually knew a long time ago that this was done by my ninth brother in collaboration with the noble families, and that my ninth brother was the mastermind.

He persuaded Wang Wenchao to commit crimes in the name of his son in Xizhou. Only my ninth brother knows what my seal looks like. "

"Then why didn't you report it to me immediately?" Li Shimin looked at Li Shen and asked seriously.

"Father, how should I report this? Should I tell Father that Brother Nine did many wrong things in Xizhou just to frame me?

Aye, if that's the case, what will happen to mother? She just recovered from a serious illness and has just started to feel better.

Doctor Sun repeatedly reminded his mother not to be too happy or too sad, and especially not to be anxious, for fear of getting a heart attack due to anger.

How could I ignore my mother's safety just for my own personal grudge?

As a son, you should put filial piety first. Even if you suffer a great injustice, you should report good news rather than bad news to others.

My mother has always treated me as her own daughter and doted on me much more than my older brother. No matter what I do, I will never make her sad.

If my mother's safety is the basis for revenge, I would rather not take revenge.

Otherwise, how can I be worthy of my father and mother's love and care over the years.

Ah Ye, I can’t do it! "

At the end of his speech, Li Shen cried and shed a few crocodile tears.

He wiped his tears with his sleeves and then bowed to Li Shimin.

"I lost my temper, please forgive me, Aye."

The scene was somewhat quiet. After hearing Li Shen's words, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian, father and son, both fell into deep silence.

The two people did not doubt what Li Shen said, because Li Shen was really filial to Empress Changsun.

Even outsiders know this.

Li Chengqian even fell into deep self-blame. Compared with his younger brother in front of him, Li Chengqian felt guilty.

As the eldest son, I have been loved by my mother since I was a child.

But he was not as filial as Li Shen, the illegitimate son.

Li Shen alone took on all the responsibilities of his mother's legitimate sons. He took good care of his mother and made her happy.

From this perspective, his legitimate sons can definitely be described as unfilial.

After a long time, Li Shimin came back to his senses and sighed to Li Shen:

"Oh, forget it, I didn't expect you, Old Ten, to do this for your mother.

I am really pleased.

I was wrong and shouldn't have favored him. If you have any requests, just let me know. As compensation, I can satisfy you in any way I can."

Li Shimin was really moved by Li Shen. For the sake of the Queen, he gave up revenge on Li Zhi. What a broad mind he had.

I really underestimated my son in the past, and I should make up for it to him in some way.

Li Shen shook his head and said sadly:

"Aye, this is what I should do, I don't need anything.

If you really feel bad, then give me a few million coins to spend.

I must..."

"Wait, what did you just say?"
