Chapter 245: Miserable

Li Zhi said with a smile after listening to Li Tai's words

"Fourth brother, I know that Aya has rewarded you with a lot of good things."

Li Shimin did reward Li Tai with a lot of money, and Yu Lu was even closer to the prince. It's just that after the Shenzhu incident, Li Tai went bankrupt.

Fortunately, Li Shimin did not let him pay back the gold he borrowed, otherwise he would not have been able to pay it back for the rest of his life.

"Fourth brother, are you talking about me? I'm also poor, okay? Li Shen came out and retorted after auditing.

"Brother Jiu, I don't have anything to give, it's too cheesy to send money, I have created a long-life lock, may my nephew live a long life."

After Li Shen finished speaking, the stone stepped forward holding a red sandalwood box.

"Pheasant, open it and take a look. The things that Lao Shi gave were all valuable and good things. Li Tai wanted to see what kind of longevity lock Li Shen had sent, even if one or two pieces of gold made of gold were only ten dollars. None of this rosewood box is worth much.

Li Zhi was also very curious, so he didn't care about any etiquette, took the box and opened it on the spot.

"Sure enough, there are rich people," this is Li Tai's sigh.

"Alas~~~" This is Li Chengqian's sigh

I saw a longevity lock lying in the box, this is not an ordinary pure gold longevity lock,

The material of this longevity lock is gold-coated jadeite, jadeite is inside, and the carved pattern is wrapped in gold on the outside, which is also a lot of patterns. On both sides are peony flowers, and in the middle is a unicorn.

The carving is lifelike. Jadeite is inlaid in gold, which shows the nobility even more.

"Old ten, the color of your piece of jadeite is no less than three thousand, right?" Li Chengqian asked after taking a closer look.

"No, no, it's all something outside the body, of course Brother Jiu's first son should pay attention to it." Li Shen waved his hand again and again,

But this action seems to others to be full of show-off.

"Old ten, the fourth brother has a nephew at home, you can't favor one over the other." Li Tai also has a son, but he was born a few years ago.

"Okay, I'll send one to the fourth brother when I get home, okay." Li Shen was helpless

"Big brother, won't I give you all one?" Seeing that Li Chengqian was about to open his mouth, Li Shen hurriedly took the lead.

"The eldest brother has two sons," Li Chengqian said.

"......." Li Shen was speechless

"Hahaha," everyone laughed heartily at Li Shen's appearance.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Majesty's guard of honor is here." At this time, the eunuch beside Li Chengqian said,

As soon as everyone turned around, sure enough, a large group of people in the distance drove over.

The first person is none other than Ang Lee.

The four brothers hurriedly stood respectfully at the door, waiting for Li Shimin.

"I've seen Aya, I've seen my mother."

After Li Shimin and Empress Changsun came down to fight, several people saluted in unison.

"What are you four doing here if you don't go in? Are you waiting for me? ”

"Back to Aya, let's talk here for a while" On this occasion, the first person to answer must be Li Chengqian.

"yes, Aya, we were just talking about the gift from the old ten." Li Tai fanned the flames

"Oh? What kind of gift are you giving? Li Shimin was quite curious.

This son must have made an extraordinary move.

"It's nothing, it's just an ordinary long-life lock, not worth mentioning." Seeing Li Shimin, Li Shen's vigilance suddenly increased a hundredfold.

As soon as he heard the longevity lock, Li Shimin also lost interest, even if a longevity lock is made of gold, it can be worth a few dollars, and it just means better.

"Aye, you may not have seen such a long-life lock, a long-life lock worth three thousand times" Li Tai gave Li Shen eye medicine at a critical moment.

"Three thousand long-lived locks? Show me it. Li Shimin immediately came to the spirit.

took the box handed over by Li Zhi, and after opening it, he was also shocked, the gold-wrapped jadeite is still a high-grade jadeite.

"Guanyin, have you ever seen such an ordinary longevity lock?" Li Shimin showed it to Empress Changsun.

"Hehe, Erlang, don't be cautious." Empress Eldest Sun smiled and relieved Li Shen.

"yes, Aye, let's go in and talk." Li Zhi also said on the side

Li Zhi led everyone into the banquet hall from the middle door, and Li Shen also secretly sighed along the way, Li Zhi's palace is indeed big, although the decoration is decent, it is much more atmospheric than his palace.

For a while, Li Shen had the urge to expand the palace, and secretly decided to go back to study and study.

Of course, Li Shen sat at a table with Li Shimin, and after Li Shimin finished speaking, everyone began to push the cup and change the lamp.

"Tenth brother, this meal is the chef of your flavor restaurant." Li Chengqian asked after eating a few bites of food.

"Yes, big brother, I borrowed it with great difficulty." Li Zhi replied on the side.

"Brother Jiu, if you want to say that, then you won't borrow it next time. If you borrow it from me, why is it not easy, am I embarrassed for you? Li Shen gave Li Zhi a roll of his eyes.

"Lao Jiu, the fourth brother you said definitely doesn't believe it, if you want to say this, it's still okay for Lao Shi, it's definitely no problem to have a few people,

But if you ask him for money, the fourth brother probably won't come out. Li Tai, the little fat man, is still angry about Li Shen's refusal to cooperate several times.

"Haha, Lao Shi is really slamming the door, I have a deep understanding of this." Li Shimin, who was on the side, saw that the brothers were having a good time and joined in.

"Look at you, what are you doing, don't I love money a little, which of your houses has my big expenses.

Brothers, don't just watch your brother make money, you can't understand the hardships that your brother endured. Saying that, Li Shen sighed sadly, feeling like he couldn't look back on the past.

If you don't know the truth, you are really deceived by him.

"You can run a carriage in the vault of your house." Li Shimin reminded.

"Yes, now I can only run the carriage, I have spent more than 100,000 yuan in the past half a month to repair the palace, and now the rats can starve to death when they enter." Li Shen said.

"Old ten, are you crying poor like this for fear that we will ask you for money?" Li Chengqian's words simply spoke to Li Shen's heart.

It's not that I'm afraid, it's very afraid.

"Big brother, the younger brother left the palace at the age of twelve, and the palace was all fifty acres of land bought by the younger brother himself.

You are looking at your mansion, there is a palace outside the palace, the fourth brother is more than 200 acres, and the ninth brother is a square of land.

Besides, from the eleventh year of Zhenguan to the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, my younger brother has not received a penny, and there is no money in the next three years.

The younger brother has a huge palace to maintain, dozens of maidservants and eunuchs to eat, and 3,000 guards.

Dongshan's research institute and Sun Shenyi's medical hall all cost money. There are also school fees, fees for more than two thousand students. My brother is bitter! Li Shen said with tears, if it is accompanied by an erhu solo, it is really sad for those who hear it, and those who see it cry.

It's just that he forgot that there was another person who knew everything about him.

"Do you mean that I haven't prepared a palace for you?" A joking voice reached Li Shen's ears.

Li Shen felt the murderous aura, the killing intent for his money.
