"Uncle, you're too polite. This is what a nephew like me should do!"

The fat man narrowed his already small eyes slightly, and the flesh on his face piled up with his smile, forming deep nasolabial folds.

That look is really a bit naive.

Li Shimin's eyes fell on the fat man's round face. For some reason, the more he looked at him, the more satisfied he felt.

"I never thought that at my age, I would still have a good nephew like you!"

As Li Shimin spoke, he turned his gaze to the two boxes of calligraphy and paintings beside him, and the admiration in his eyes was revealed without any concealment.

Lin Pangzi naturally noticed Li Shimin's favor and understood it.

"Uncle, if you like it, I will give it to you later. This suite will belong to you. If you have nothing to do in Xianyang, please come visit often."

The fat man grinned, revealing a row of fairly neat teeth, and his smile became even brighter.

When Li Shimin heard the extremely generous words of the fat man Lin, his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

In this world, who doesn’t desire to have a generous friend?

After all, he was a man who had experienced many ups and downs. After a moment of sighing, he quickly calmed down and remembered the important purpose of coming here.

"Nephew, uncle has something to ask you."

Li Shimin sat up straight, his expression became serious and earnest, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

"Uncle, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it!"

The fat man patted his chest loudly.

Li Shimin waved his hand gently, his tone softening slightly as he said, "My dear nephew, it's nothing serious. I just saw this steam engine in the newspaper and wanted to go see it for myself. Do you think it's too much trouble?"

When Lin Dafu heard that Li Shimin wanted to see the steam engine, he was startled for a moment, but then he quickly reacted and raised his voice to say, "Uncle, what's the big deal?"

"But uncle, I can't do that today. His Majesty will be arriving soon, and I have to go to greet him. Can you take me with you tomorrow?"

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, nephew."

After saying that, he picked up the exquisite teacup, took a sip of hot tea, and felt the tea fragrance spreading on the tip of his tongue.

After a moment, he put down the teacup and changed the subject, saying, "My dear nephew, when did you first discover that cotton can keep you warm?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Lin Dafu's originally relaxed expression instantly tensed up, and a barely perceptible panic flashed in his eyes.

This matter is a secret and must not be disclosed easily.

Even if the person in front of you is your Majesty's old man, it won't work.

Not one of us.

After the fat man rolled his eyes quickly a few times, a warm smile appeared on his face and he started to do his old job.

Serious nonsense.

"Uncle, I discovered it by accident. Someone gave Your Majesty a flower, and Your Majesty thought it was beautiful, so he kept it. At that time, he didn't expect it to have such an effect."

As Lin Dafu spoke, he picked up his teacup and gently blew away the hot steam on the surface.

Then he took a sip of tea as if nothing had happened.

Li Shimin stared closely at Lin Dafu's eyes.

This fat man seems to be honest and harmless, but he is so careful in dealing with key issues. He is really evil-minded.

But even though I was unwilling, I couldn't force myself to ask at this moment. I could only bury this doubt deep in my heart for the time being.

The fat man continued to pretend nothing had happened and slowly drank the tea in his hand.

"My dear nephew, if that's the case, I'll be leaving first. Cheng Qian will be here soon, and it will definitely be lively."

"My uncle's two daughters are still at home, and he's worried about them, so he definitely wants me to take them with him to join in the fun."

After Li Shimin stood up, Fatty Lin immediately stood up with him.

"Uncle, I'll have someone deliver it to you. It's just right to take these two boxes with you."

The stingy fat man said this with a sincere face.

Li Shimin looked at Fatty Li and nodded.

"Well, it's a shame that you're so thoughtful. I'd be remiss if you didn't agree."

The fat man immediately shook his head.

"Uncle, what are you talking about?"

"This is what we, the younger generation, should do. If you want something, just send someone to say hello to your nephew."

"Okay, okay, uncle won't be polite."

Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Then uncle, I'll take you there."
