I rewarded myself by watching short videos for two hours. I almost forgot everything that happened before. I put on my headphones and started typing on the keyboard.
Immersed in the virtual world of my own creation, I slowly forgot what happened before.
At least I've forgotten it for now!
After eating the cakes and playing for a while, the little princess had to take a nap.
The little princess sleeps for a long time.
Qinglan stood beside the bed, watching the little princess sleep.
The door of Princess Jinyang's palace was pushed open.
Princess Changle Li Lizhi slowly entered the palace.
She was wearing a brocade robe, looking dignified and elegant.
Seeing Li Lizhi coming, Qinglan quickly stood up and walked over to salute: "Your servant greets Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Li Lizhi was the eldest daughter of Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun, and the big sister among the princesses.
They also lived in Fengyang Pavilion. When Empress Changsun did not come, Li Lizhi had to take care of her other sisters.
"How is Sizi?" Li Lizhi spoke slowly.
"Your Highness, the little princess is fine, there's nothing wrong."
"The weather is quite cold, and Sizi kicks off the quilt frequently at night. She needs to wear more clothes." Li Lizhi walked to the bed and saw the little princess taking a nap on the bed.
"Yes, Your Highness, I will remember this!"
Li Lizhi gently put the little princess's hand into the quilt and pulled the quilt.
The little princess was sleeping soundly, so this didn't affect her at all.
Seeing her sister's cute appearance, Li Lizhi smiled.
Seeing that the little princess was fine, Li Lizhi turned around and said, "The temperature in the inner hall is acceptable now. It gets colder at night, so we can add more stoves and braziers. Sizi is young, so she must not catch a cold."
Because she is afraid of catching a cold, the little princess cannot go out during the day. It has been freezing cold recently.
"Yes, Your Highness, I will remember this!"
"Sizi is very active and eats a lot. How is he doing?"
"It's about the same as usual, except for the pastries at noon today. I felt like I ate them a little slower and less, not as much as before."
Qinglan didn't dare to hide anything from Li Lizhi and had to tell her all these little details.
Li Lizhi looked at her personal maid Yu Shu beside her and asked, "What kind of pastries did the Imperial Food Bureau prepare today?"
"Your Highness, it's Hundred Flower Cake!"
Li Lizhi looked at the sleeping little princess, "Sizi has always liked Baihua Cake..."
Baihua Cake, formerly known as Baizi Cake, is a traditional cake delicacy with a small and simple shape.
The taste is pure, sweet and fragrant, and the cake patterns include people, birds, flowers and plants, etc., which are especially popular among children.
"Maybe he's tired of it. That's okay." Li Lizhi didn't think it was a big deal.
"Your Highness, the little prince likes to climb onto the dressing table." Qinglan didn't dare to forget this matter. It would be fine if it happened once, but it happened twice that day.
Li Lizhi looked at the dressing table and asked, "How can Sizi get up to this height?"
"I don't know how he got up there specifically. It happened to be when I was not in the inner hall. It should be this small stool." Qinglan pointed to the small wooden stool next to the bed.
Li Lizhi smiled and shook her head. She didn't expect that this little girl, who was less than two years old, knew how to climb up using the stool.
"I understand. Please pay more attention to it. Sometimes when you are not in the inner hall, hide the stool."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
There was no problem. Li Lizhi looked at the little princess and the rattle next to her pillow, then left the inner hall.
Empress Changsun was not in good health. As the eldest daughter, Li Lizhi had to shoulder the responsibilities of an older sister.
There are now nineteen princesses in Fengyang Pavilion of the Princess Courtyard, and the youngest is Princess Jinyang Li Mingda.
Both Li Lizhi and Empress Changsun need more attention.
As the youngest daughter of Li Shimin and the legitimate daughter born to Empress Zhangsun, she was naturally the darling of the group and the apple of everyone's eye.
Not only was she cared for by Empress Changsun and Emperor Li Shimin, but she was also loved by her other brothers and sisters.
Li Lizhi came, but the little princess was completely unaware of it.
From time to time, he smacked his lips and muttered a few words.
The reason Qinglan was watching over her was that the little princess was restless when she slept and tended to kick off the quilt.
I have to pull the quilt from time to time.
The bed is so big that the little princess doesn’t know where she will be when she wakes up.
Even when asleep he is restless.
......
Lizheng Hall
After looking around Fengyang Pavilion, Li Lizhi had to go and report to Empress Changsun.
As the eldest daughter, she had a noble status and could enter Empress Changsun's bedroom directly without notifying her.
"Mother!" Li Lizhi shouted.
Empress Zhangsun, who was standing by the stove, smiled slightly and said, "The beauty is here!"
Empress Changsun put down the scroll in her hand and pointed to the side, "Come sit here, mother."
Empress Changsun's personal maids Hongxiu and Yushu untied Li Lizhi's brocade robe. There was no need to wear a heavy brocade robe in the Lizheng Hall.
Li Lizhi knelt down beside Empress Changsun and hugged her arm.
"Mother, the other sisters are all fine, don't worry."
The weather was cold, and Empress Changsun was worried that the other princesses would catch a cold and get sick.
"That's good! How's Sizi doing lately? I haven't seen you in a while."
What Empress Changsun was most worried about was her young daughter.
"Sizi is fine, don't worry, mother!"
"Cough cough cough..." Empress Changsun suddenly started coughing.
"Mother!"
Li Lizhi looked worried.
"It's okay, it's just an old problem. It happens when the weather is cold. It will be fine when spring comes next year!"
Empress Changsun looked very weak and her smile was forced.
Li Lizhi could see that her mother didn't want her to worry.
"Mother, what did the imperial physician say?"
"It's an old ailment. I can only take some medicine to treat it. It's not a big problem. Don't worry."
The more calmly Empress Changsun spoke, the more Li Lizhi knew the situation was not good.
Li Lizhi picked up the Hundred Flowers Cake beside her and handed it to Empress Changsun. "Qinglan said that Sizi didn't enjoy the Hundred Flowers Cake as much as usual today."
"I've been eating Baihua Cake more frequently recently, which is normal." Empress Changsun took the Baihua Cake.
"Mother, Sizi likes to climb onto the dressing table recently. Qinglan always has to go away by herself sometimes. I'll go over and keep her company for the next two days."
Now Li Lizhi can't leave and has to look after Empress Changsun.
Although Empress Changsun had palace maids around her, Li Lizhi was still worried and had to watch over her herself.
"Okay, that's fine too."
"Do you want to put on more clothes?" Li Lizhi was worried that Empress Changsun was cold.
"It's not cold if you don't go out in Lizheng Hall. There's no need for this."
Li Lizhi nodded and said nothing more.
"There are so many things to wear in the palace, and there are stoves and braziers, and it's still like this. I wonder how hard life is for the people." Empress Changsun couldn't help but worry.
Recently, Li Shimin has been very busy with this matter.
It's not just Chang'an City that is cold, the entire north is cold now, and the worst hit area is Guanzhong.
It's much colder than ever.
"Mother, with Grandpa and the officials in the court, there will definitely be no problem with these matters."
