When Qingyin opened her eyes, there was a chubby little face smiling at her obsequiously: "Fairy Sister!"
Qingyin: "..."
Looking at the chubby little girl in front of her, whose clothes clearly showed her difference, Qingyin sighed and picked up the rather heavy little girl.
The little girl was very obedient and cooperated perfectly with Qingyin's movements.
Judging from the little girl's identity, Qingyin tentatively asked, "Cuiyue?"
"How did you know my name is Cuiyue, fairy?" the little girl asked, her round eyes wide.
Meeting the little girl's gaze that said, "You really are a fairy sister," Qingyin felt a little tired. This little devil was truly something else.
A girl of this age in the palace, dressed in fabrics clearly bestowed by the emperor, and with a lively personality, is most likely favored. Considering the current emperor's offspring, it's not hard to guess the girl's identity.
"Gurgle, gurgle," her stomach growled at an inopportune moment, interrupting Qingyin's thoughts.
The little girl shyly covered her round little belly and stared at Qingyin apologetically.
Qingyin, who had originally wanted Ah An to send the little princess away as soon as possible, stopped in her tracks, turned around, picked up the chubby little princess, and walked in another direction.
"Fairy sister, where are we going?"
"I'm not a fairy, I'm here to cook for you."
"Oh, fairy sister, she must be a fairy, she's so incredibly beautiful."
"Yes, Princess Cuiyue is very beautiful too."
...
Upon arriving at the newly cultivated field, Qingyin put the little girl down and picked a few red berries and bok choy.
"Fairy sister, what is this red fruit? I like it so much, it's so sweet." The little girl licked her lips with relish.
"Red fruit".
After picking the vegetables, Qingyin led the little girl back to the yard.
After quickly washing the vegetables and cutting off a slice of hawthorn, Qingyin casually popped it into the mouth of the curious Cuiyue. Qingyin continued cooking, and the two of them, one big and one small, looked surprisingly harmonious.
Qingyin simply made a tomato and egg noodle soup for the little girl, adding some bok choy to supplement her vitamins.
In one of her previous lives, Qingyin had a God of Cooking System. Through that world, her simple skills were honed into those of a God of Cooking.
Even simple vegetarian dishes can be made as fragrant and delicious as a gourmet meal.
The little girl ate the whole bowl of noodles without blinking, and if she hadn't been so full, she would have even wanted to finish the rest of the soup.
I was still in shock. How could the fairy sister be so beautiful and cook so well? Even better than the Emperor's chef!
After finishing her meal, Qingyin learned from the little girl that she had come in chasing a kite.
Qingyin raised an eyebrow, pulled the little girl out of the house, and found that an eagle-shaped kite was hanging on the roof of the Dongguan courtyard. Estimating the height, Qingyin pulled out a thin wooden pole, used the corner of the wall for leverage, and knocked the kite down from the roof.
The little girl stared in disbelief, her eyes filled with admiration. "Fairy sister is so amazing!"
Handing the kite to the little princess, Qingyin lowered her head and said to the little girl, "Princess, now that you've eaten, you have to go back, otherwise your mother will worry."
The little girl was quick-witted, and she said eagerly, "Then fairy sister, come with me."
Qingyin shook her head, patted the little girl's head, and said nothing.
When Song An returned, she was astonished to see an extra child in the yard, her mouth agape in surprise. "Sister, this..."
Seeing Song An's surprise, Qingyin was not surprised either. She pointed to the little girl and said, "An, see Princess Cuiyue out."
“Princess Cuiyue?” Isn’t this the second princess? Oh no, she’s the eldest princess now. In Song An’s memory, when the Empress was still in the harem, the second princess had only just been born.
Although curious about why the little princess was in the Cold Palace, Song An did not ask any further questions. He took the initiative to pick up the little princess and prepared to leave.
The little princess, still unwilling to give up, cried out, "Fairy sister, come with me!"
Qingyin: "No, that won't do." Her smile was gentle, but her tone was firm.
Although she didn't intend to stay in the cold palace for the rest of her life, now was not the time for her to leave.
However, with Princess Cuiyue around, Qingyin thought that she probably wouldn't be too late to leave.
The little girl who had been rejected by Qingyin lay listlessly in Song An's arms, holding a kite half her size, her pretty eyebrows furrowed.
Song An's heart softened. Although His Majesty was blind, the little princess was still very cute. She comforted the little princess, "Little princess, your sister must stay here and cannot go out. This place is not good. You can't come here again."
Seeing that Song An had become much more agreeable, Cuiyue blinked her big eyes and asked, "Why can't we go out?"
Isn't it all because of His Majesty? Song An subconsciously thought, but when he remembered that this person was His Majesty's own daughter, Song An swallowed the words that were about to come out.
They made a mess of it and just brushed it off.
Cuiyue naturally didn't believe Song An's perfunctory words. Her eyes lit up. No matter the reason, she would ask her father, the Emperor, to bestow the fairy sister upon her, and then she could get out. Maybe the fairy sister could lull her to sleep every day and cook delicious food for her...
As she thought about it, a suspicious smile crept onto the little girl's chubby face.
Song An also sent the little princess to the gate of the Cold Palace, where guards were stationed.
Song An knocked on the door, briefly explained the reason to the guard, and then left under the little princess's reluctant gaze.
The guards standing at the door were also at their wits' end looking at the little princess who was barely taller than their legs.
They were hardly incredulous when they heard the maid's words, but they knew there were no children in the Cold Palace. Besides, this maid used to serve the empresses in the harem, so she might have seen the little princess. If something happened to the little princess because of their negligence, even if they had several heads, it wouldn't be enough for His Majesty to cut them off.
The two men, as if inviting an ancestor, brought out the little girl. Seeing the expensive fabric on the girl's body, they believed her a little more. But then they wondered how the little princess had ended up in the cold palace. They had been guarding her the whole time, without even taking a nap. How did the little princess get in?
No matter how you look at it, the little princess is a hot potato that needs to be sent away immediately.
Although many people in the inner palace were looking for the little princess, the news hadn't reached the Cold Palace, so the two guards on duty were unaware of it. They hesitated for a moment just now; otherwise, if they had known, they would have rushed out to fetch her immediately.
Inside the palace, people searching for the little princess were going crazy.
When news of the little princess's disappearance reached Fu Lin's ears, he was so angry that he smashed a cup in his hand, but he did not forget to look for his little daughter.
He ordered all the Imperial Guards to be mobilized, and he himself ran to the place where the little princess had disappeared.
The entire palace was mobilized due to the loss of the little princess.
"Princess!"
"Princess! Princess Cuiyue!"
"Princess!"
...
"The princess has been found!"
