I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shen spoke bluntly, which Li Shimin didn't expect. He didn't speak, waiting for Li Shen's next words.

"Aye, actually if I say no, you won't believe it, Aye.

But I want to ask Aye, how is your life now? "

"Fine clothes and fine food are not enough to describe it. Folks say it is extravagant." Li Shimin thought for a while and replied.

"I'm asking Aye a question, what do you think his rights are now?"

"A first-grade prince, although he has no real power, has a high status, and all the officials are very jealous of you. Generally speaking, although he has no real power, it is of little use to you whether he has real power or not."

Li Shimin's answer was very pertinent. Although Li Shen did not have real power now, he still had influence. Many ministers did not dare to offend Li Shen and could not withstand his revenge.

Moreover, Li Shen is not interested in government affairs, so it is really of little use whether he has real power or not.

"Aye, I'm asking the last question. Please forgive me for being presumptuous. I think who of us, father and son, has a better life?

Or if you ask this, Aye thinks who of us brothers is more comfortable and has a more pleasant life compared with my eldest brother. "

"That goes without saying, let alone being clever, even I can't enjoy it as much as you, Prince Ji. There are more rare treasures in your Prince Ji's palace than in my palace." Li Shimin replied angrily.

"Then Aye, why do you want to do something treacherous and set your life back? You have a comfortable life, but you have to live such an uncomfortable life.

For rights? But now your rights are big enough. You can do whatever you want now, and you can't do anything if you don't want to do anything. No one can restrain you.

Of course, Aye can restrain the son, but there is no one else but Aye. In the future, when the eldest brother succeeds to the throne, the son's life will remain the same.

I don’t understand why you would do something so treacherous and unethical?

Many people live a poor life because they have no rights, no wealth, and no status.

That’s why they do it. They want money, power, and status, but Aye, I don’t lack any of these three. "

Li Shen's three consecutive questions made Li Shimin so confused that he didn't know how to answer them.

His son is right, being an emperor is not just for the overwhelming power, the world's wealth, and the unparalleled status.

He is the emperor, but for the sake of the common people? Well, that may be part of the reason.

If he was in the same situation as Li Shen and Li Jiancheng were like Li Shen and Li Chengqian,

He really may not do such a thing.

Li Shimin sighed in his heart. Sure enough, his son's ideas were different from others, and what he said made sense.

As long as his son remains as he is now, even if he acts lawlessly, even if he commits murder and arson,

In the next few decades, they will live a comfortable life.

"Alas~~~" Li Shimin sighed. He knew that this son saw things more clearly than anyone else.

In the past ten years, three sons have won the title of heir, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Zhi. If the tenth son, Li Shen, had not been in the middle to make peace,

How could the three sons still live in peace and harmony now? Li Shimin was the one who had been here before, and the succession to the throne was bloody.

"Old Shi, do you think Aye is getting old and is seriously ill?" Li Shimin's tone was full of vicissitudes of life.

This was the first time he felt this way, and he wanted to ask his son who dared to tell the truth the most.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear Li Shen's answer, so he turned his head and looked at Li Shen.

At this moment, Li Shen's eyes were wide open and his mouth was also opened wide, looking incredible.

This was the first time his father said the word Aye to him, and he was still so kind.

At this moment, Li Shen really wanted to hold Li Shimin and cry, and then ask, Dad, are you terminally ill? Don't worry, no matter how much money you spend, I will treat you.

"What are you doing?" Li Shimin's mood was immediately destroyed by Li Shen's appearance.

"Ah~~It's nothing. In fact, I can understand Aye's mood. It's normal.

It’s just that everyone in the world takes this position too seriously.

Aye, what if you imagine this Tang Dynasty as the property of my Li family?

Aye is the head of the family, which can also be said to be the shopkeeper. The ministers are the ones in charge, and the common people are the servants.

Aye has the final say in the property, just like the property in Prince Ji's Mansion, Er has the final say, but Er never thought that Er's children would harm Er for the sake of the family property.

Of course this may not be an appropriate comparison, but it seems to me to be the same.

Aye may not believe it, but he has already planned to distribute the family property to his children and grandchildren at the age of fifty, and then take the princess and the others to enjoy life.

And while my son is still alive, I can also help my descendants to frighten those Xiaoxiao who are plotting against our Prince Ji's family business.

You can also correct your children and grandchildren in time when they make mistakes. If you encounter unfilial children and grandchildren who ruin the family fortune, you can teach them a lesson. If it doesn't work, we will find another profession. "

Li Shen's words made Li Shimin fall into deep thought, which was what Li Shen was thinking.

In his previous life, he never understood why all dynasties had to wait until the emperor died before letting the prince succeed to the throne.

Why not let the new emperor ascend the throne while he still has some power, so that if someone with disobedience wants to control the government,

He can also eliminate future troubles for the new emperor.

In history, most powerful ministers appeared when the old and the new changed, and many of them were the trustees of the old emperor.

The most famous ones are Obai and Dorgon.

But Li Shen discovered that in large consortiums and business empires, few would let their sons manage them until their principals died.

"Old Shi, do you mean to ask me to abdicate early?" Li Shimin came back to his senses and stared at Li Shen and asked.

"No, no, no. Aye, that's not what I meant. I was just talking about my own thoughts.

I don’t understand the affairs of the imperial court, so I don’t dare to speak nonsense.

I just want to prove that I have no disloyal heart, and I also want to enjoy life. "

Li Shen waved his hands repeatedly. He suddenly regretted that he shouldn't have said so much just now.

I had a disease called retirement syndrome in my previous life, let alone an emperor who had been in power for half his life.

He now wishes he could give himself a mouth. Why is this mouth always faster than his brain?

Seeing that Li Shimin was still looking at him, Li Shen carefully added:

"Aye, I really don't mean that. I know that the country and the family industry are different. I was just talking nonsense and nonsense.

Aye, please don't be angry. "

Li Shimin still didn't say anything and continued to look at Li Shen, but Li Shen started to feel uncomfortable. They said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, so his father wouldn't let him go.

"Aye, I'm your biological son, you don't want to kill me.

At most... at most... I'll give the mutton-fat white jade wine set I got from the Western Regions to Aye's head office as an apology. "

"make a deal."

"..." I made a mistake

(Personal opinion, if I don’t like to spray it casually, even black fans are fans.)
