Chapter 2084 High EQ
Chapter 2084 High EQ
It can be said that Li Shen has now reached the pinnacle of his life, even higher than the peak.
His own aunt now treats him as her own son, even closer to him than her own son.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Li Shen was full of doting.
Li Shen saved Empress Changsun, Princess Changle, Xiao Sizi, and this time he saved the emperor, saving most of the family.
He also taught Li Chengqian and pulled the prince back from the abyss several times.
All these added together are a huge achievement for the royal family, in no way inferior to those of the founding fathers.
Originally, Empress Changsun liked Li Shen, who was filial and considerate.
Since saving Li Shimin this time, Empress Changsun has become even more fond of Li Shen, and it is almost the same as if he had the two sons or not.
"Mother is right, I am wrong. Old Ten is a kind person, I am not as good as him."
Seeing that his mother was a little angry, Li Tai immediately stood up and bowed to apologize.
It can be seen that Li Shen is now more favored by his mother than the other two.
Li Zhi, who was standing aside, had an ugly look on his face. He was the youngest son of Empress Changsun, and Empress Changsun loved him the most.
But since the emergence of Li Shen, his status has become lower and lower, and now it has been completely occupied by Li Shen.
He and Li Shen were born in the same year. If outsiders saw this, they would think they were taken away by mistake.
Seeing that their mother loved an outsider so much, Li Tai and Li Zhi both felt complicated emotions.
"Well, since Old Ten is leaving tomorrow, let's have dinner here today.
Wang De sent someone to the palace to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come over."
Li Shimin interrupted Li Shen's performance and gave an order to Wang De.
Li Chengqian had returned to the palace for two days and was driven back by Li Shimin.
He had suspended court for many days. After Li Shimin's condition stabilized, he let Li Chengqian go back to continue regulating the country.
"Follow Aye's instructions." The three brothers also stood up and saluted to receive the order.
Li Shen drank a cold drink, squinted his eyes, and enjoyed the summer scenery, feeling very comfortable.
"Old Ten, how about you practice for a while longer? You'll be leaving tomorrow, and I won't be able to guide you."
Li Shimin suddenly sat up and looked at Li Shen with a look of regret on his face. It would have been better if he had been allowed to practice for two more days.
This was the move he had been thinking about day and night. It could both allow him to take revenge and leave others speechless.
Li Shen had never learned those things in the first place. Music, dance, chess, these fun things, Li Shen had never learned them at all.
Li Shen had practiced martial arts, horse riding and archery. His archery skills were so perfect that he would never miss the target within ten feet.
Li Shimin took this opportunity to avenge the incense ash water.
"Aye, my back and waist are aching now, it seems that I have injured my tendons and bones, so I can't practice anymore.
Besides, Aye is not good at using a gun, so when I return to the army, I will ask Xue Rengui to teach me."
Li Shen shook his head and refused. If he continued to practice, he would get heatstroke.
"Ridiculous! You actually said that I don't need a gun?" Li Shimin immediately got angry when he heard Li Shen doubt his ability.
"Father, as far as I know, Father is good at using a ring knife. In the battle of Huoyi, he killed dozens of enemies in close combat with a ring knife, showing his might and domineering power.
There is also the horse lance. In those days, Aye often charged into battle with a horse lance in his hand to expand the territory of our Tang Dynasty.
Aye was best at horse riding and archery. With the Juque Sky Bow in his hand, he could defeat an army of one million. He turned the tide in the Battle of Hulao Pass and killed thousands of enemies. He was considered the best horse riding and archery expert in the world.
That’s why I said that Aye is not good at using guns.”
Li Shen's words were full of admiration and awe, which greatly benefited Li Shimin. Praising oneself is arrogance, but when others praise oneself, it is talent.
I didn't expect that this rebellious son knew me so well that he even knew what weapons I was good at using back then.
Especially Li Shen’s last words that he was the best archer in the world made him very happy.
He was good at riding and shooting, and had loved hunting since he was a child, and was quite proficient in riding and shooting.
Although I am happy in my heart, I still have to be reserved on my face:
"Old Ten, you're going a bit too far. You should know that there are always people who are better than you, and I don't deserve the title of the best in the world.
Don’t let others laugh at you when you get out.”
"Father, you are too modest. These are not what I said, but what Duke Wei and Duke Lu told me.
They told me how wise and brave Aye was in the past, and how good he was at fighting. I was really impressed by him.”
Li Shen observed his father's words and expressions and realized that he was overly vain. Naturally, he couldn't stop flattering him. How could he show off his high emotional intelligence if he didn't flatter him?
"Hahahaha." Sure enough, when Li Shimin heard that it was Li Jing and others who said it, he immediately burst into laughter.
I felt so proud in my heart.
Alas~~~, Empress Changsun glanced at Li Shen, then at her two sons, and sighed in her heart.
Look at that person's son, he is so good at talking and he makes Your Majesty so happy. How could Your Majesty not love such a sensible child?
Looking at his two sons, although they also flatter, they are still well-behaved, unlike Li Shen who invisibly elevates His Majesty.
"This is all because of the Duke of Wei's flattery. I am not as capable as they say. When it comes to military affairs in the Tang Dynasty, the Duke of Wei is second to none.
When it comes to bravery and fighting skills, Duke Lu, Duke E, and Duke Yi are invincible.
They have made great contributions to our Tang Dynasty."
There was a hint of reminiscence in Li Shimin's eyes, as if he was remembering the days when they conquered the world together.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
Just then, an eunuch came to report.
"Xuan."
Soon Li Chengqian was taken to Hanfeng Palace.
"See Aye, Mother."
The three Li Shen brothers also stood up and saluted;
"I've met brother."
"Brother, come and sit down. We are talking about how Aye is invincible." Li Shen said to Li Chengqian.
"Asshole, when did you become invincible?"
Li Shimin felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Li Shen.
"Gao Ming, please sit down. We just talked about the achievements of the Duke of Weiguo and his men. They have made great contributions to our Tang Dynasty, so you must also treat their descendants well in the future."
In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Li Shimin changed the subject.
"Yes, Father, I will treat them well. I will never forget everything they have done for our Tang Dynasty." Li Chengqian agreed after sitting down.
After he succeeds to the throne in the future, he will still have to use people with merit, as people with merit have higher loyalty and no conflicts of interest.
Since ancient times, emperors have been willing to use relatives and people with merit, but not clan brothers.
Because under the ancient idea of loyalty to the emperor, seizing power by a person of a different surname was considered a heinous act, so it was a very remarkable thing for the emperor's relatives to be able to monopolize power in the court, and few dared to usurp power.
The simplest reason is that clan brothers have the legitimate right to inherit the throne, but relatives by marriage do not. When the next generation of emperor ascends the throne, the relationship is distant and they are naturally no longer valued.
(Some people commented that they wanted to popularize the saying of "Ankang" during the Dragon Boat Festival. I also found that some people were saying "Ankang".
First of all, the story about Ankang has been widely circulated ten years ago. It was said by a so-called intangible cultural heritage expert, Professor Yang Guangyu.
The Dragon Boat Festival is a sad day, because Qu Yuan, Wu Zixu and Cao E all committed suicide by jumping into the river, so we can say "Ankang" instead of "Happiness".
However, this rumor has already been debunked.
Qu Yuan also celebrated the Dragon Boat Festival; he just chose this day to jump into the river. The so-called commemoration was just added by later generations.
The Dragon Boat Festival first became popular in the Wuyue region. Activities such as dragon boat racing are also for worshipping, praying for peace and health, and creating a joyful atmosphere.
For example, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, wrote in "A Preface to the Dragon Boat Festival Banquet for Ministers in Three Palaces" that "I sigh at the cycle of solar terms and admire the happiness between the monarch and his ministers."
Lu You wrote in his poem "Poem of Double Fifth Day in Yimao": "The mountain village is beautiful on Double Fifth Day, and the pomegranate flowers are suddenly in full bloom. The rice dumplings are divided into two buns, and mugwort is tied to the hat. According to the old custom, medicine is stored, and the frail body is also painted with elixir. When the sun sets, my work is done, and I smile to the cups and plates."
There are many more that I won’t mention. Don’t be brainwashed. These are all from ten years ago. Another point is that there is no such person as Professor Yang Guangyu to this day.
