The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 505

Xu Tian didn't pay much attention to what Li Er said.

He said, "On the day of the General's birthday, I will present a generous gift to celebrate his birthday."

Li Er finally smiled.

"Very well, I'll wait and see."

When they returned home, everyone in the manor felt sorry for Xu Tian after hearing about what had happened.

But they dare not say anything openly.

Because this was done by the Emperor himself.

You can say in the palace that he is not even the Grand General, but you cannot say that he is not even the Emperor.

Regardless of whether there are ears on the other side of the wall, this is a capital offense for them.

They wouldn't dare take that risk.

"My lord, are you really determined to let the general go this time?"

Song Ren felt extremely unwilling.

Even though there are witnesses and physical evidence, the general cannot be convicted.

What kind of world is this?

But then Xu Tian said, "Can you find someone more suitable to go to the border than the General?"

These words immediately left Songren speechless.

Where could he possibly find it? The great general's success is precisely because of his numerous military achievements over the past few years.

That's why he acts so arrogantly, and no one takes him seriously!

If it weren't for this, how could he have treated Xu Tian like this without being punished?

Xu Tian was even trying his best to cover up his crimes.

They clearly hated each other.

Since it is possible to do this.

Songren also greatly admired this Lord Xu.

But he was just a guard, and he couldn't get involved in these things.

I could only offer some opinions, even though I was very angry inside.

But he couldn't very well speak ill of the General and the Emperor.

Even their adults no longer talk about it.

"Remember, the same thing happened when I was assassinated in the city. Don't mention it again."

As long as this matter is brought up again, it will put him and the general in the spotlight.

At this critical juncture, Xu Tian didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

Many things are already set in stone.

If he does something unexpected again at this time...

It's possible that no one can reverse this situation.

"I've heard that the General's birthday is coming up soon. You'll have to come with me then."

Songren looked completely bewildered!

"Does Your Excellency intend to send a gift to the General?"

This event destroyed all his ideas.

He wanted to know that this wasn't true at all.

But Xu Tian said, "On that day, all the officials will be there. Am I not going?"

He glanced at Song Ren, but did not blame him further.

He simply said, "Go and have the steward arrange for all the treasures in the storeroom to be brought out."

“Treasure, I’m telling you, you’re not just going, you’re also giving away treasure. This general is…”

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Xu Tian's face instantly turned cold.

“Songren, you were bestowed upon me by the Emperor no matter what. Don’t you understand the things that happen in the court? Even if you didn’t understand before, you must learn to understand them now.”

"You are now a member of my household, and you must be responsible for your every word and action."

This is not a private residence where you can do whatever you want.

In places like this, sometimes a single word can cost you your life.

He once served by the Emperor's side; how could he not even know this much?

As soon as Xu Tian said this, Song Ren understood instantly.

He didn't dare say anything more.

Because of this matter, Xu Tian has made his final decision.

Song Ren was naturally aware of the current affairs in the court.
