Looking at the way his father was looking at him, Li Kuan had a feeling that he was hiding something bad.
He had a bad premonition.
"Imperial Father, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first.”
Li Kuan said to Li Shiming.
He was afraid that his premonition would come true if he stayed any longer, so he wanted to escape quickly.
He had already achieved his goal. If he didn't slip away now, when would he?
Li Shiming looked at his son, who wanted to leave quickly, and a smile flashed across his eyes.
"Run. No matter what, I have to make sure you enter school today."
Li Shi Min thought to himself.
"Cough cough, Kuan 'er, this place is so close to your Chu royal residence. Aren't you going to invite Imperial Father to your place?”
Li Shiming looked at Li Kuan and smiled.
Li Shi Min's words made Li Kuan's heart quicken.
The bad premonition was getting stronger.
"Imperial Father, your son's place is rather simple, so it's better not to go. Moreover, Imperial Father has just obtained two divine items, so we should immediately spread them so that the people of the Great Tang will not suffer from hunger as soon as possible.”
Li Kuan smiled and refused.
He definitely couldn't let his father go to his own territory, even though the more confidential things inside had been moved elsewhere.
However, in order to prevent his premonition from becoming a reality, Li Kuan quickly refused.
Hearing Li Kuan's tactful rejection, Li Shiming smiled.
"It's fine. It's not something that can be popularized in a day or two. I'll go to your place for dinner today.”
Without waiting for Li Kuan's refusal, he asked most of the officials to go back. Then, he led a few close officials to Li Kuan's manor.
Li Kuan had no choice but to follow.
The group soon arrived at Li Kuan's manor.
"Kuan 'er, this place of yours is not bad. It's elegant and quiet.”
Li Shiming said with a smile as he looked at Li Kuan's manor.
"It's not bad. It's suitable for an old guy like me to live in retirement.”
Du Ruhui stroked his short beard and echoed.
Not long after they entered the manor, Liu Bowen came up to them.
Li Shi Min hurriedly bowed as he looked at the crowd.
"Greetings to the emperor and the lords.”
Although Liu Bowen had never seen Li Shimin before, he looked at the person walking in front and he looked a little similar to His Highness.
If he couldn't guess who this person was, then he wouldn't be Liu Bowen.
Li Shimin nodded at Liu Bowen, who was neither servile nor overbearing.
"Mister Liu, go and instruct the kitchen to prepare some food. Today, Imperial Father will be having a meal in the manor.”
Li Kuan said to Liu Bowen.
Liu Bowen nodded and left.
Sitting on the chair that Li Kuan had ordered the craftsmen to make, Li Shimin and the others looked at the chair curiously.
"What is this?"
Li Shi Min asked in surprise.
"This is a chair. Your son felt that kneeling down is too tiring and not good for the body, so he asked the craftsman to make it according to the Hu stool."
Li Kuan said.
Li Shi Min and the others leaned back in their chairs and nodded their heads in satisfaction.
"It is indeed much more comfortable than kneeling. Get the craftsmen to make a few more and send them to the palace.”
At this moment, a servant served tea.
The transparent glass cup attracted the attention of Li Shiming and the others.
Glass cups had been circulating in Chang 'an for a long time, but Li Kuan's cup was specially made by craftsmen.
The crystal clear glass cup had all kinds of patterns on it.
The exquisite design made Li Shimin and the ministers unable to put it down, playing with it in their hands.
Seeing this, Li Kuan's mouth twitched and he was speechless.
"Looks like I can't keep these cups."
Li Kuan thought to himself.
"Everyone, have some tea first."
Li Kuan interrupted everyone's play and ordered someone to pour the tea leaves he had fried into a cup.
Although Li Kuan didn't know how to make tea in his previous life and had never seen it before, he still knew a little about it.
It was very simple to clean the freshly plucked tea leaves and stir-fry them in a pot over low heat.
After a few attempts, he succeeded.
The boiling water was poured into the glass and mixed with the green tea leaves.
The tea leaves kept rolling in the water, and the fragrance of the tea leaves assaulted his nose.
Li Shiming and the others were shocked by the way Li Kuan drank his tea.
"This is tea? Why is it different from what we usually drink?”
Li Shi Min looked at the tea in the glass and asked in surprise.
"This subject researched this matter on his own.”
Li Kuan looked at the group of country bumpkins and pursed his lips.
Everyone picked up their cups and took a sip. Their eyes immediately lit up.
"This tea smells so good!"
"The fragrance is elegant and the taste is rich. It's indeed not bad.”
"This is much better than the tea we usually drink.”
....
"Kuan 'er, your tea is not bad. En, the cups are also not bad. Send some to the palace later.”
Li Shiming sipped his tea and looked at Li Kuan calmly.
Well, he hadn't even started talking and he had already lost a few things.
Li Kuan thought to himself.
"Yes, Imperial Father."
There was no other way. The Emperor had given an order, and he could not disobey it.
You are the emperor, you are the most important.
Wei Zheng and the others also looked at Li Kuan eagerly.
"Both, both."
Li Kuan said helplessly as he looked at the big shots.
Since the big shot had already spoken, he could not refuse.
Hearing that the emperor and the few big shots were going to eat here, Wang Dade, who was in the kitchen, did his best.
After studying the recipe given by Li Kuan for a few months, Wang Dade's culinary skills improved by leaps and bounds.
Li Kuan and the others had only taken a few sips of tea when the kitchen placed a large table of dishes on the table.
After three rounds of drinking, Li Shimin looked at Li Kuan with a strange expression.
"Kuan 'er, have you recovered?”
Li Shi Min looked at Li Kuan and said lightly.
Li Kuan was shocked.
"Much better, Imperial Father."
Li Kuan said carefully. He had a feeling that what his father was going to say next was not good.
At the very least, it was not a good thing for him.
"Since that's the case, I'll go to the Imperial Palace and study the Confucian classics with Teacher Kong.”
F * ck, I knew it wasn't a good thing.
Li Kuan thought to himself.
In her previous life, she hated studying and would doze off whenever she read.
If he were to learn from those people.
Li Kuan estimated that he might fall asleep in the future.
"I don't think so. Your son is good at reading by himself.”
Li Kuan replied weakly.
"How can you read by yourself? Teacher Kong is a great scholar of the present age. I believe you will definitely learn a lot.”
"It's decided then. From now on, you'll go to school with your crown prince and the others every day.”
Before Li Kuan could say anything, Li Shimin made a decision.
Li Kuan knew that his dark life was about to begin.
