Chapter 1853 Going to Cuiwei Palace Again
"Alright, I get it. You're just nagging me. I'm just angry. That's all.
Naturally, I would not disobey the prince's orders.
Just do your own thing, and if you dare to bother me, I will beat you to death."
Li Shen glanced at the stone and said unhappily.
"Yes, I'll go down and arrange it right away." Shitou quickly put on a smile and saluted.
"Go ahead." Li Shen waved his hand. He had no way to deal with the little eunuch beside him.
You might say he is stupid, but he knows everything and understands everything. No matter what Li Shen wants to know, he can answer it as long as he is asked.
You have to say he is not stupid, but he does things in a confused manner, which can be really annoying when something happens.
There was no way around it. This was the person Li Shen trusted the most and the person who was most loyal to him. He was the one who helped Li Shen test poison when they went out to eat.
In fact, princes and dukes do not need to test for poison when eating normally, as they are all trustworthy people.
But Li Shen was timid and there were too many enemies. Assassination attempts happened several times. Since then, Li Shen became very cautious because he was really afraid of death.
There are quite a few of them in the palace. The cooks are basically eunuchs' maids. They cannot leave Prince Ji's palace and have no way of contacting the outside world.
But it was different when he went out to eat. Li Shen was afraid, so he needed Shitou to help him taste the food.
This is also the reason why the prince seldom eats out. After all, he has his father’s experience as a lesson.
Shitou received the order and prepared to leave, but just as he reached the door, Li Shen stopped him again:
"and many more."
"Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?" Shitou turned around.
"I remember that it seems that it is time for my mother to take some tonic food. Tomorrow I will take out a batch of good medicinal materials from the warehouse according to the prescription of Dr. Sun.
I am going to use aged ginseng to stew a pot of black chicken soup. I am going to go to Cuiwei Palace to discuss football with His Majesty.
Also, bring some of the modified hawthorn meatballs, they are good for your appetite and help with your sleep."
How can you go to do things empty-handed? Li Shen knows the ways of the world.
"Then Your Majesty..." Shi Tou had to remind his master that there was still one person missing.
Li Shen showed a conflicted look on his face, and after a long while he sighed.
"Forget it, forget it. Just give it to me. I will go to the vault to pick something myself tomorrow."
After saying this, he showed a distressed look, as he was going to lose another treasure of his.
The next day,
Li Shen got up early, took a bath, changed his clothes, and had a meal, then went out and headed for Cuiwei Palace.
This time, Li Shen brought Lu Dingniang and Xixi Yangyang with him, but did not bring anyone else.
He went to discuss serious matters this time.
We enjoyed the spring scenery along the way and arrived at the foot of Cuiwei Palace in less than half an hour.
He ordered people to move the things out of the carriage and sent someone in to report. After a long time, Wang Decai finally arrived.
"This old servant greets His Royal Highness Prince Ji, His Royal Highness the Princess, and the young master and young lady."
After Wang De came over, he saluted Li Shen and the others with a smile.
"No need for gifts, just ask someone to move all the things upstairs, they are all gifts for Aye and mother.
There are also medicinal herbs in it, telling you to keep your hands and feet clean.”
Li Shen waved his hand and walked inside with his family without waiting for Wang De to tell them whether they could enter or not.
Wang De shook his head helplessly and immediately ordered the eunuchs to move the things quickly.
He also knew that everything Prince Ji brought was extremely precious, so he specifically instructed them to handle them with care.
They arrived at Hanfeng Palace, reported everything, and then Li Shen walked in with his family.
Li Shimin was seen sitting in the main seat, with Empress Changsun, Concubine Wei and several other important concubines sitting beside him.
"And see Aye, mother, mother queen."
"See Aong."
Bringing his family with him, Li Shen stepped forward and saluted.
"Well, no need to be polite. Didn't I tell you not to come here again? Why are you here again?"
Li Shimin hummed through his nose and asked with a look of disgust.
"Uh..." Li Shen was speechless for a moment, wondering if he was so unpopular.
Can't you even try to hide your disgusted expression? You are being too ruthless to yourself, aren't you?
"Xixi Yangyang, come to grandma quickly and let grandma take a look."
Empress Changsun, who was standing by, knew that the father and son were about to start fighting again, so she ignored him and waved to Lu Dingniang.
Suppressing the impulse in his heart, Li Shen replied:
'Aye, I came here specially to bring some tonic medicine to mother.
The son calculated the date and found that today was the day for his mother to take tonic, so he brought the best medicinal materials according to the prescription of Doctor Sun.
He also specially cooked a pot of black chicken soup with ginseng for his mother and his mother.
Oh, and I also brought some pills for my mother to take to stimulate her appetite and help her sleep.'
After Li Shen finished speaking, he waved outside, and the eunuch outside came in carrying a tray.
They are lined up in a row, filled with all kinds of medicinal herbs.
Finally, Shitou was holding a casserole containing ginseng and black chicken soup.
"Mother, this black chicken soup has been stewed for more than an hour. I'll have them heat it up and drink it later."
Li Shen handed over the black chicken soup.
"Haha, Shen'er is thoughtful." Empress Changsun waved her hand, and the maid beside her immediately stepped forward to take it.
"What are you talking about, mother? It is my duty to respect my mother. And these pills, mother Aye, take one every morning and evening.
It can stimulate appetite, help digestion, and help sleep." Li Shen handed over another tray of porcelain bottles.
At Li Shimin's signal, Wang De took it. Li Shimin picked up a bottle, opened the cork and smelled it.
"Well...how about trying one first to see the effect?" Li Shen asked tentatively.
Li Shimin did not respond, but poured out a pill and threw it into his mouth.
"Your Majesty..." Wang De quickly spoke out to stop him.
"It doesn't matter. This rebellious son will not die with me." Li Shimin shook his head.
His son was very smart. If he were to be poisoned to death, no one in Prince Ji's mansion would survive.
Li Shen would not be so stupid. Even if he wanted to poison himself, he would not do it himself.
Li Shen is not a stubborn man who would not exchange his entire family's lives for his own.
Li Shen did not expect that his father would eat it directly. After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward and took a bottle of medicine from Wang De, opened it, poured out two pills and swallowed them.
Li Shimin was stunned by what he saw.
Li Shen chewed and said helplessly:
"Well...I'd better take two pills. In case they are poisonous, we father and son will have some company."
"go away."
After hearing this, Li Shimin was almost angry to death and kicked Li Shen hard.
The rebellious son is still a rebellious son and will never change. He actually dares to say such words in front of me. It is so treasonous.
Li Shen was kicked but acted as if nothing had happened. He even said to Wang De:
"It's a bit sticky. I put too much honey in it. Go and pour me a cup of tea."
This made everyone laugh and cry. Li Shimin handed Li Shen a cup of tea in a bad mood:
"Come, Your Highness Prince Ji, have some tea."
"Thank you, Aye." Li Shen took it and drank it without hesitation. In fact, he wanted to ask if the tea was poisonous.
It's a pity that he doesn't dare to reciprocate.
