Three days later, the gentle and majestic Empress Changsun, the tall and heroic Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and His Royal Highness Princess Jinyang were dressed in fine clothes.
The three of them were sitting in front of the iron-eating beast, dumbfounded.
In front of them was one of the most outstanding art masters of the Tang Dynasty: Yan Liben.
At this moment, Yan Liben was looking at the family of three carefully, writing and concentrating.
If it were the past painting method, His Majesty would have been painted taller and more powerful, while the characters on the side would have been reduced to a certain proportion.
Only in this way can the heroic appearance and smile of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty be highlighted.
But now, squatting there is not only His Majesty the Emperor, but also the Queen and the lovely Princess Jinyang.
Well, it seems that this one cannot be painted in an exaggerated way, and can only be painted in a more realistic way.
It's just that His Majesty's expression seems a little too serious. No, no, no, since we are a family, how could it be too serious?
It should look majestic and kind at the same time. As for the Queen's expression, it is the most perfect.
Gentle and elegant, his whole personality is so perfect.
As for Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang, this Highness is simply a replica of the Queen. Although she is still a girl now, her features and eyes are exactly like the Queen's.
It is said that although His Majesty has rejected countless marriage suitors from high-ranking officials.
However, there are still countless dignitaries who are shameless and just want to marry the apple of His Majesty's eye.
I don’t know whose family this jewel in His Majesty’s eye will end up with in the future.
As expected of a master of art, even though he was busy with all kinds of gossip in his mind, he never stopped writing.
And every time he raised his head, he would bow his head and draw several strokes in a row.
Zhao Kun, who was standing aside to help with the inkstone, looked at the portrait of His Majesty's family of three by the talented Yan artist.
I have to admit that I am afraid that only this artist Yan can paint all the charm of His Majesty's family of three.
Naturally, the foreground is His Majesty's family of three, while in the rear, two iron-eating beasts can be vaguely seen.
One is eating bamboo, and the other is climbing and playing. They are cute and lively.
Zhao Kun was seen nodding his head frequently, but even if Yan was the artist himself, it took him almost half an hour to paint.
The draft was finalized, and then two eunuchs carefully moved the still-completed painting to Li Shimin's family of three.
Li Shimin looked at the painting with satisfaction, looking at his beloved wife and daughter in the painting, and then seeing himself in the painting who was powerful but not angry, with a kind demeanor.
"As expected of Yan Qing, well done. It's really hard work for Yan Qing's family."
Artist Yan smiled reservedly, said a few words of humility, and then flattered him without leaving any trace.
While he was talking, a eunuch hurried over and whispered to Li Shimin with a bow.
"Your Majesty... Li Bingbu has something to report."
Li Shimin nodded, praised Yan Liben again, and then left quickly.
Not far away, he heard his daughter's crisp and sweet voice. He turned around and saw his daughter there, not knowing what to do with Yan Liben.
It's a pity that I have official duties, otherwise, I would like to hear what my good girl is mumbling about.
Li Shimin walked gradually, and Yan Liben stared blankly at Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang who was standing in front of him.
I really feel that Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang’s request is a bit unbelievable.
Queen Changsun, who was standing aside, saw the look of help from her daughter and could only take a step forward and said with a smile.
"Mr. Yan, please..."
"I don't dare. Since His Highness wants to draw it like that, how about I try my best?"
"That's great, thank you Mr. Yan." Li Mingda's eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his pretty face and smiled brightly at his mother.
Then, Yan Liben once again splashed his brush and ink, but this time, the appearance of Princess Li Mingda has changed.
Then I saw Princess Li Mingda holding her chin in one hand and leaning against the railing with a beautiful parasol in the other.
Not far away, a fat and silly iron-eating beast was sitting in front of a rockery, eating bamboo.
This time, because there were fewer characters, it was naturally much faster. After Yan Liben finalized the draft, Li Mingda was beaming and thanked him repeatedly.
When I saw my mother talking to Hu Shanggong in a low voice not far away.
Li Mingda said in a low voice, "Please Yan Langzhong, can you give me two of these paintings?"
Yan Liben, who was about to take back the two paintings he painted today for finishing, saw the lovely and polite princess in front of him and asked.
He nodded and agreed. Anyway, the draft was already finalized. At worst, it wouldn't take much effort to just copy one more copy.
What's more, His Majesty also ordered a few more copies of the first picture of a family of three for collection.
Hearing this, Li Mingda thanked him repeatedly, and then watched the artist Yan drift away.
I thought that soon, Brother Cheng San would be able to receive his own portrait.
Li Mingda really wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of surprised expression Brother Cheng San would have.
Queen Changsun, who had finished communicating with Hu Shanggong, walked slowly over. She saw the sweet smile on her daughter's face, but her cheeks were flushed, and she couldn't help but wonder.
"Xiao Sizi, why are you laughing? Why is your face so red?"
"My daughter is just happy that her appearance can be left on the painting. Oh, it's so hot. Mother, can we go get some ice cream?"
"Okay, you kid must be hiding something from your mother?"
"No, no, really not, mother, please leave quickly." Li Mingda let out a series of silver bell-like smiles and ran towards her quickly.
"Really, when the children are big, it's not up to the mother..." Empress Changsun's face was full of doting, and she kept up with Li Mingda's cheerful figure.
Hu Shanggong looked at the mother and daughter who had similar looks, well... even their brains were probably on par with each other.

In Luzhou and Xuezhou City, the current Xuezhou City also had a cement official road opened more than two months ago.
That flat, wide and gentle cement official road really made traveling for the people of Xuezhou many times more convenient than in the past.
Moreover, although Xuezhou has complex terrain and changeable mountains, the climate here is humid and cloudy and foggy all year round.
There are not only a large number of wild tea trees, but also a large number of wild camellia oleifera trees, which are most suitable for planting these two economic crops.
In addition, Xuezhou also has coal mines with abundant reserves, as well as abundant limestone reserves.
Therefore, as early as last year, before the cement official road arrived, the Han and Tang dynasties had already settled here.
He also began to recruit manpower, built a cement factory here, and opened up large tea gardens and camellia oleifera gardens in Xuezhou.
Not far to the southwest of Xuezhou is Fengzhou. After leaving Fengzhou for only a few dozen miles, we entered the central boundary of Rongzhou.
