Chapter 360 Will the Second Prince Bully Me?
In the imperial palace, Li Suining was led by Yuan Huaihong into the East Palace.
This was not her first time coming to the East Palace, but it was her first time staying here.
The East Palace was just as she had imagined, very big and beautiful. Although she liked it very much, she didn't want to stay there for long.
The place she most wanted to go was always home.
"Sister Suining," Yuan Huaihong was in a good mood. He lowered his head and looked at the little girl tenderly. "From today on, treat this place as your second home, okay?"
The little girl tilted her head back and squinted her eyes at Yuan Huaihong, "Thank you, Prince. Sui Ning is sorry for causing you trouble."
"How could that be?" The smile in Yuan Huaihong's eyes became even more intense.
In fact, from the first time he saw Xiaotuanzi, he couldn't help but envy Bai Qingan for having such a sister.
Emperor Yuan Tianchen of Jin had always had few offspring. In his huge harem, he only had a few princes and not even a daughter.
Yuan Huaihong, as the crown prince and the future king of a country, has always been placed with high hopes. He is not very close to his younger brothers in daily life and has not felt much sibling love.
However, when he saw the little dumpling chasing Bai Qing'an and calling him "Big Brother" and "Big Brother", he loved him so much.
Therefore, Yuan Huaihong's little selfish desire at this time was to hope that Li Suining could stay in the Eastern Palace for a longer period of time.
When they arrived at the main hall, he carried the little Tuanzi to a chair, and called several aunts in charge of the East Palace, palace maids, and eunuchs in charge, and introduced the little Tuanzi to everyone very solemnly.
"This is Li Suining. She was recently named Princess Suining. She will be staying in the Eastern Palace for the time being."
The servants looked up cautiously and saw a fair and tender little fellow sitting on the chair, shaking his short legs. He was so adorable that they all looked delighted.
Everyone said in unison, "Greetings to the Suining County Master."
The little girl blinked her big eyes. She didn't learn many rules in the general's mansion. When she arrived at the East Palace and faced with so many servants, she didn't know how to respond to everyone.
She thought for a moment, then stretched out her little hand and waved, "Hello, I'll be bothering you guys from now on."
Everyone chuckled.
The eldest maid Shaoyao couldn't help but speak up, "Your Highness, this county lady is so cute. Can she stay in the East Palace for a while longer?"
The others immediately nodded in agreement.
"No, no." Before Yuan Huaihong could speak, the little girl shook her head anxiously.
"I still want to go home." She lowered her head and couldn't help feeling a little sad.
These days, Yuan Huaihong met many people regarding the affairs of the General's Mansion, so everyone in the East Palace also knew that something had happened to the Bai family.
So, seeing Xiaotuanzi like this, they couldn't help but feel distressed.
Regardless of whether Bai Yunfeng was wronged or not, Li Suining was just a four-year-old child. What could she have done wrong?
"Your Highness," Shaoyao said immediately with concern, "Shall I go get some snacks for the Princess?"
"Okay, go ahead." Yuan Huaihong waved his hand.
The people in his palace all have the same personalities as him, and they are all kind-hearted. Therefore, he feels at ease letting the little girl live here.
"Sister Suining," Yuan Huaihong took the initiative to change the subject, "you live in the east and west, and you need someone to take care of you. Look at these people, who do you want to take care of you?"
Everyone immediately looked at the little dumpling eagerly, as if saying, choose me, choose me.
"No need." Little Dumpling said seriously, "I can take care of myself."
Everyone laughed.
In the palace, the masters, let alone those who were four years old, even those who were ten years old, needed someone to take care of them when they were dressed and fed. Therefore, they could not imagine that the little dumpling could take care of himself.
Yuan Huaihong laughed and saw Shaoyao bringing back snacks and milk, so he simply handed the matter over to Shaoyao.
"Peony, you will be the one taking care of Princess Suining while she lives in the Eastern Palace. Can you do a good job?" Yuan Huaihong asked in a gentle voice.
The little girl looked at the peony with big eyes, curiously.
The palace maid in front of him looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with chubby cheeks, big eyes, and two dimples when she smiled at him.
Li Suining likes it very much.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. I will take good care of Princess Suining." Shaoyao happily accepted the task.
Afterwards, Yuan Huaihong took Xiaotuanzi to choose a room and asked Shaoyao to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some things Xiaotuanzi needed. Then Xiaotuanzi finally settled down.
"Sister Suining, you live in the East Palace and you can go anywhere in the East Palace." Yuan Huaihong said with a smile.
The little girl listened carefully and promised not to run around.
"It's okay. I have classes almost every day, so I don't have much time to play with you. If you're bored, you can just walk around."
Yuan Huaihong was very thoughtful. "However, if you leave the Eastern Palace, you must let Shaoyao accompany you. Otherwise, the harem is too big, and I'm afraid you will get lost."
"Okay! Thank you, Prince brother!" Little Dumpling responded in a baby voice.
"One more thing..." Yuan Huaihong seemed a little hesitant and stammered, "In the harem, you will inevitably meet a concubine or a prince..."
"There are five princes in the palace now, including me. The youngest is one year younger than you..." He paused, looking at the little boy's nervous expression, and then quickly said, "Don't worry, the princes are all easy to get along with, but..."
Yuan Huaihong scratched the back of his head, "If, you accidentally met the Second Prince..."
A little girl next to him immediately said, "Just run, run far away."
Little Dumpling looked bewildered, "Why? Brother Crown Prince, brother Second Prince...will they bully me?"
"Not really." Yuan Huaihong didn't know what to say. "Anyway, if you meet an unfriendly brother, just stay away from him. When the time comes, you'll have Shaoyao with you, so nothing will happen."
"Okay." Little Tuanzi couldn't help but say, "I'll have to trouble my brother the Crown Prince, my sister Shaoyao, and my other brothers, sisters, and aunts these days."
When everyone heard this, they shook their heads in fear, not daring to be the county lord's brother or sister.
Soon, Shaoyao came back with something.
She couldn't help but sigh, "To your Highness, there's no princess in our palace... so the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave me some of the Fifth Prince's things, saying... that the County Lady should make do with them first, and they'll rush to make some more."
"It doesn't matter." Little Dumpling didn't care. "What I wear and use doesn't need to be so elaborate."
Yuan Huaihong had guessed this would happen, and he gently instructed Shaoyao, "It's okay, tell the Ministry of Internal Affairs that there's no need to prepare anything. When we have time, I'll take Sister Sui Ning out to buy some."
As he spoke, he picked up Xiaowu's clothes and compared them on Li Suining.
The Fifth Prince is a boy after all. Although he is one year younger than Li Suining, his clothes fit Li Suining perfectly.
"Okay, then let Xiao Suining wear Xiao Wu's clothes for the next few days."
