Chapter 244: Princess Qin Enters the Palace
The spacious and comfortable carriage was moving very steadily, and even on the bumpy road, there was not much bumpiness or discomfort. This speed was specially instructed by the prince, and Mo Yan, the coachman, executed it meticulously.
Fortunately, with the company of Yang Yanqi, a friend who loves to talk, laugh, play and make fun, I will never feel lonely along the way.
It took more than ten days to get back to the capital. When she saw the tall, broad, and majestic city gate tower of Bianjing City, Luo Li, who was eager to go home, ordered, "Mo Yan, hurry up the carriage. I want to go home and eat the delicious food made by Tingting."
Yang Yanqi also missed her mother. "Luo Li, I will go home to visit my mother after entering the city. I can only eat the delicious food made by Tingting another day."
"I've been bothered by you all the way. Go home quickly. Tell Aunt She that I will visit her at Yang's house another day."
The roads here are all bluestone, flat and wide, so you can walk faster without any bumps. Besides, after entering the city, the streets are full of pedestrians, so you can't go faster even if you want to. After Mo Yan agreed, he raised the whip and sped up.
The familiar scenery on the street makes people feel at home. Even the unpleasant drake voice of the fish vendor on the roadside doesn’t seem so unpleasant anymore. Is this the sense of belonging to home?
The carriage galloped to the gate of the Prince of Qin's mansion. The servants at the gate were so excited to see the princess returning that they saluted and hurriedly opened the gate to let the carriage drive in.
The carriage stopped at the second gate. Luo Li was helped out of the carriage by Hong Gu, and servants came over to greet her.
After receiving the letter, Butler Zhao came over jogging, "Princess, you are finally home!"
"Uncle Zhao, how is your family these days?"
"Okay, okay, everything is fine at home! Princess, you have lost a lot of weight, but you have suffered a lot, right?" Butler Zhao's voice was filled with heartache and concern.
Luo Li smiled kindly: "I've been suffering from a lot of bad food, I have to let Tingting nourish me with delicious food."
"Miss Tingting has gone to help at Chuanran Hotpot City. Wu Dacheng, go and call Miss Tingting back!... By the way, Xiaozhi, go to the farm outside the city to pick up Miss Ruhua." Butler Zhao ordered hurriedly.
"Okay! Dad, I'll go on horseback, it's faster." The smart Zhao Zhi agreed and ran towards the stable.
Luo Li looked at Xiao Zhi's running back and asked, "Uncle Zhao, why didn't your son Xiao Zhi go to the academy?"
"Reporting to the princess, this kid refuses to go to the academy to study no matter what, and insists on learning martial arts and joining the army. His mother and I have tried to persuade him but it is useless. Let him be!"
Luo Li said as they walked, "Everyone has their own aspirations. We can't force them. If he likes to practice martial arts, then let him practice martial arts. Anyway, there are many martial arts masters in our palace. If he wants to learn martial arts from a master, he can just pick him up with a stick."
The princess still spoke humorously and pleasantly, and Butler Zhao quickly said, "Princess, please don't let him hear this. It's not right to choose a master by picking a stick when learning from a master."
As soon as they arrived at the gate of Ningxin Garden, the maids who heard the news ran out with tears in their eyes.
"Princess, you are finally home! You must have suffered these days?" Yingchun was so excited that tears flowed down her face as she bowed and greeted her.
"Miss, if you and Master don't come back, Ni Shan'er and I will be left without a mother!" Yu Li pouted and walked forward, hugged Luo Li with her left hand, and greedily hugged Hong Gu with her right hand, crying loudly.
Siyu wiped her tears and did not forget to tease her: "Yuli, you and Ni Shan'er are orphans who lost their mothers when they were young! Our young lady is young and beautiful, but she cannot be your mother."
Yu Li raised her head and angrily said to Si Yu: "It seems that you are talking without any pain in your waist. Next time, I will go out with the young lady and the master and leave you at home!"
Banxia, Wanqiu, Yingxue and Ni Shan'er also had red eyes and tears welled up in their eyes.
"Okay, okay! I didn't expect that I have such a good relationship with people in this palace. My character is really great!" Luo Li joked, her eyes a little red.
I was surrounded by people and entered Ningxinyuan. I was jumping for joy. Everything familiar seemed so good and kind. It felt like home.
Yingchun helped the princess to sit down, Banxia poured her a cup of hot tea, Wanqiu and Yingxue squatted down one by one to massage the princess' legs, Yingchun massaged her shoulders and neck... Luo Li was enjoying the treatment of being treated like a star.
Yu Li's attention has been attracted by Meng Qian and Meng Xue. She pulled Ni Shan'er and seduced the two timid and reserved children.
"My name is Yuli, and I have a group of younger sisters and brothers under me. What are your names? How old are you? Do you want to learn martial arts from me?"
Meng Qian answered the question honestly: "My name is Meng Qian, and this is my sister Meng Xue. I am nine years old and she is five. We don't want to learn martial arts. We want to learn medicine."
Yu Li straightened up in disappointment, but continued to seduce him, "What's the point of learning medicine? It's more fun to learn martial arts. If you practice a set of superb martial arts, you will be very powerful in fighting. Isn't that right, Shan'er?"
Ni Shan'er supported Sister Yuli, "Yes, learning martial arts can strengthen your body and beat bad guys. Sister Yuli's kung fu is amazing."
Yu Li looked at the two little guys with pride and anticipation, "Learn martial arts from me, and you'll have lots of delicious snacks to eat."
Meng Qian was unmoved, "Sister Yuli, no, we have already promised Grandpa Ghost Hand to learn medical skills from him."
Meng Xue did not lose her principles due to the temptation. "Sister Yuli, Grandpa Ghost Hand said that he will accept both of us as his disciples when he comes back. We can't learn martial arts from you anymore."
These two seemingly clever little ones have been spotted by the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor, and Yu Li was immediately deflated.
: "Well then! You learn medicine from Ghost Hand, and I will teach you martial arts in your spare time. Can I take you as my younger brothers and sisters?" After a pause, he continued to add chips: "Delicious snacks will still be provided for you to eat."
Meng Xuexian smiled with curved eyebrows and eyes: "Okay! Sister Yuli, when we are free, we will learn martial arts from you, you give us delicious snacks, and we will be your little brothers and sisters."
Meng Qian thought about it and finally nodded, agreeing to acknowledge this big sister and be her younger brother.
"Oops! Oops! Done!" Yuli jumped excitedly.
Hong Gu looked at Yu Li lovingly. She loved this mentally ill and simple-minded disciple like her own daughter. The young lady always spoiled Yu Li with endless pampering.
Tingting, who was always introverted and steady, rushed in in a hurry, "Miss,... you are finally back. I was so worried and missed you so much!"
Luo Li stood up and hugged Tingting, "I miss you so much, and the delicious food you cook! Tingting, hurry up and make a seafood dinner for your young lady to replenish her body."
Tingting laughed, wiped the tears from her eyes, turned around and ran to the kitchen outside, "Miss, I brought all the ingredients back, just wait, you can eat in a while."
Luo Li thought about the delicious crabs, prawns, and large yellow croakers, her stomach drooling, enjoying the gentle shoulder and leg massages from the maids, and watching the lovely Yu Li seriously giving Ni Shan'er, Meng Qian, and Meng Xue her original brainwashing technique...
"My Lord, someone has come from the palace. The Emperor has ordered the Princess of Qin to come into the palace." Butler Zhao reported from outside the house.
"What the hell! I just got home to take a breath and haven't even had my seafood dinner yet, but the Emperor has issued an order to summon me to the palace. Is it really necessary to be so impatient?"
Luo Li cursed angrily, but did not dare to delay, so she had to put the seafood dinner aside for the time being.
When he arrived at the front yard, he met the eunuch who announced the imperial edict. After kneeling down to receive the order, he was immediately taken into the palace to meet the emperor.
Sitting in the carriage, Luo Li closed her eyes and leaned back, thinking about how to deal with the emperor when she went to the palace. Zhao Defang was most worried about the emperor's suspicion and questioning. When they were in Yizhou, they had discussed many countermeasures.
However, this also depends on how well the silly princess Luo Li can perform on the spot.
Luo Li took out a chili pepper and asked Tingting to rub it on her eyelids, and warned her in advance: "Tingting, be careful this time. If you rub it into your eyes again, I will punish you by not having dinner."
Thinking of the last time when she accidentally rubbed chili pepper into the princess' eyes, causing her tears to flow continuously and her eyes to be swollen like peaches, Tingting laughed so hard that her hand holding the chili pepper was shaking.
