The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 853

Li Shen didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.

It was like someone had caught a fox by the tail.

Seems a bit helpless.

Xu Tian simply said a few words and turned to leave.

Back at his residence, Xu Tian recounted all the events that had occurred in the past few days.

It seems that all of these things were done by Li Shen.

He didn't seem to care much.

After all, after hearing what he said, Li Shen should no longer cause trouble.

The next day.

Emperor Li Er is about to celebrate his birthday, and all the princes are starting to scheme against each other.

Even the ministers were racking their brains.

They didn't know what kind of gift to give Li Er.

He has everything he could want.

From Xu Tian's conversation with Li Zhi, it was clear that Li Zhi was troubled by this matter.

"I really don't know what kind of gift to give Father Emperor?"

Li Zhi looked conflicted.

They were even more troubled about what gift to give.

Xu Tian picked up the glass of water in front of him.

His finger spun around the bottom of the cup.

"It doesn't matter what kind of gift you give; what matters is your sentiment."

Upon hearing Xu Tian's words, Li Zhi instantly understood something.

Although his father had everything, it was still beyond the reach of a royal family like theirs.

What we lack most is probably affection!

Too many things have happened recently, and Li Zhi is feeling very bad.

His brothers killed each other and even plotted to seize the throne.

He had no idea what those princes were thinking.

But now that he thinks about it, he thinks they should all regret it!

For that illusory and unattainable position, they even killed their own compatriots.

They completely disregarded the bond between brothers.

They never valued the father-son relationship between them.

Inside the Imperial Study, Li Er was quite pleased to receive the gifts from Li Zhi.

He hadn't expected that Li Zhi would actually come up with such an ingenious idea.

They actually gave him a painting.

Moreover, it was painted by Li Zhi himself.

"Not bad, not bad. It seems you've learned a lot from Xu Tian, ​​as you can actually paint like this."

The image of myself in that painting was so lifelike.

Li Er was naturally delighted and couldn't put it down.

I was afraid that if I put it on the table, it would get dusty.

She immediately ordered her father-in-law to have a picture frame made.

Then label that portrait.

"Your Majesty flatters me. I just haven't been able to think of the best gift to give you."

"Later, it was my master who gave me advice, saying that it would be enough to send my own heartfelt wishes."

"Your Majesty, I believe you have everything you need. This painting is something I just learned recently, and I thought Your Majesty might like it, so I painted it."

Li Er nodded. "I like it, I like it."

He truly never misses a chance.

Li Zhi's feelings were quite obvious.

Although the idea came from Xu Tian.

But ultimately it was his own decision.

Most importantly, Li Zhi also drew several of his princes next to them.

How could the Emperor not understand?

What Li Zhi wanted to express was nothing more than the affection between father and son.

Li Shen watched from the sidelines, and seeing Li Er so happy, he was filled with jealousy.
