He clapped his hands excitedly, as if he had forgotten all his previous reluctance.
"Sister, look! The kite is flying so high!" Li Haoze pointed at the kite in the sky and shouted excitedly.
Li Lizhi smiled and nodded slightly, feeling deeply relieved.
She knew very well that what Li Haoze was showing at that moment was pure and innocent happiness.
And this is exactly what she, as the elder sister, wants to see most.
The golden sunlight, like delicate silk, gently falls on the shoulders of the two people, adding a touch of warmth to this quiet and harmonious scene.
But amidst the laughter and joy, the sudden and rapid sound of horse hooves broke the silence.
Li Lizhi and Li Haoze glanced sideways at the same time, and saw Zhang Ananda riding his horse hurriedly towards them with a hurried look on his face.
But she did not forget to bow politely, "This servant greets the two Your Highnesses!"
Li Lizhi frowned slightly and asked softly, "Ananda, why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhang Ananda's expression froze, and he replied in a deep voice, "Your Highness Changle, the Sage has summoned Your Highness Jinyang."
"Oh? What's the matter?" Li Lizhi asked immediately.
Considering the noble status of the two people before him, Zhang Ananda said without hesitation, "It's about the armor!"
"Armor?" Li Lizhi repeated softly, feeling a surge of unease in her heart.
She immediately thought of the agreement between Xiao Sizi and Aye to produce 10,000 sets of armor within three months. Could this be related to that?
Zhang Ananda nodded and explained clearly, "That's right, Your Highness.
The story goes like this: The Development and Reform Commission recently developed a new mining machine with unprecedented mining efficiency.
However, this also resulted in the iron ore mine that the Changsun family had promised to provide being completely mined in a very short period of time."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "The steward of the Changsun family is very dissatisfied with this.
They insisted that the amount of iron ore taken away by the Development and Reform Commission was huge, enough to cast 30,000 sets of armor.
This is a huge difference from the production quantity of 10,000 sets of armor previously agreed upon by His Highness Jinyang and Your Majesty.
Therefore, the people of Changsun's family were furious and gathered together to detain the person in charge of the Development and Reform Commission.
Both sides held their own views and argued fiercely.
As the situation escalated, it eventually alarmed His Majesty.
Your Majesty has summoned His Highness Jinyang to hear his opinions and views."
After listening to Zhang Ananda's narration, Li Lizhi felt a little relieved.
She understood that Aye would not blame Xiao Sizi too much for such a small matter.
However, since Aye had specifically summoned her, as the eldest sister, she should accompany him.
"Ananda, go back and tell the sage that His Highness Jinyang and I will be arriving shortly."
Li Lizhi said in a deep voice, her tone revealing an unquestionable majesty.
Li Lizhi said this in an unquestionable tone, her voice revealing majesty.
Zhang Ananda agreed respectfully and turned around to ride away.
However, at this moment, His Highness Jinyang uttered a bold statement, "Is the old emperor an idiot?
"You can't even handle such a small matter, and you still want to summon me? What the hell, I won't go! I won't go!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ananda trembled and almost fell off his horse.
He secretly groaned in his heart, but he quickened his pace and rode even faster.
"Hey, sister, why did you hit me?"
Behind her, the "little princess" looked at Li Lizhi pitifully, with a look of grievance on her face.
Li Lizhi glared at it and said unhappily, "Humph! That's my father-in-law. You're not allowed to make up stories about him like that! Take that back now!"
Seeing this, the "little princess" immediately restrained her attitude and dared not do it again. He muttered, "I know, sister, I was wrong."
Li Lizhi then softened her tone and urged, "Since Aye has summoned us, let's not delay any longer.
"Hurry back to the palace and don't keep Aye waiting for too long." She turned and walked towards the carriage.
However, the "little princess" felt aggrieved and lay straight on the grass, refusing to move even though Tianxiang pulled her.
In the past, Tianxiang would have forced the "little princess" to pick her up.
But now the "little princess" is so strong that even if Tianxiang uses all his strength, he can hardly move the "little princess" even a little bit.
Li Lizhi frowned and looked at the naughty "little princess", knowing that she was just sulking.
She sighed softly, walked forward, and said softly, "Okay, Xiao Ranjun, stop being so angry.
Sister knows you don't want to return to the palace, but Aye has summoned us, so we have to go."
Upon hearing this, Li Haoze turned his head away and pretended not to hear.
He closed his eyes tightly, looking like "I'm asleep, don't disturb me", which made Li Lizhi both angry and amused.
She squatted down, gently patted the "little princess" on the cheek, and teased, "Little beast, are you really not going back? Then I will ride back to the palace by myself."
The "little princess" opened her eyes immediately after hearing this. She stared at Li Lizhi with wide eyes, as if to say, "How dare you!"
Li Lizhi was secretly amused by this. She deliberately put on a stern face, turned her head away from him, and pretended to get up and leave.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Haoze quickly got up, hugged Li Lizhi's thighs tightly, and shouted, "Sister, don't go! Can't I go back with you?"
Li Lizhi then turned around, smiled, patted his head, and said, "That's good. Come, I'll ride the horse and carry you back. That way you won't be tired, right?"
Li Haoze's eyes lit up when he heard this. He nodded happily, a bright smile on his face.
For him, being able to ride on horseback and be held tightly by his sister back to the palace was more joyful and satisfying than anything else.
He had seen videos of beautiful women galloping on horseback on short videos, and they were so awesome.
Although he is now possessed by the little princess's body, he can still empathize with her, right?
But he is a passionate young man at heart, and has long been yearning for the heroic spirit of riding on horseback.
Li Lizhi looked at Li Haoze's joyful expression and felt relieved.
She knew that although this little guy was often naughty, he had a spirit of not admitting defeat in his bones.
Now that he has the opportunity to experience the joy of riding a horse, perhaps it will make him happier.
So, Li Lizhi turned around and walked towards the horse not far away, and mounted it heroically.
She adjusted her sitting position, then reached out her hand to Li Haoze and said softly, "Come, little beast, hold on to my hand, I'll pull you up."
The "little princess" ran over excitedly, jumped up and grabbed Li Lizhi's hand.
With Li Lizhi's help, he easily climbed onto the horse's back and sat in front of Li Lizhi.
"Hold on tight, little brat. We're about to leave."
Li Lizhi said softly, then kicked the horse's belly and galloped towards the palace.
