No one took the little girl's desire to lose weight seriously, except for Helian Mousisi herself, who took it all seriously.
At dinner, the little girl looked at the fragrant meat but managed to resist the urge to eat it. She only ate one bite of millet rice before putting down her bowl and chopsticks.
No matter how much Consort Lian and Yue'er tried to persuade her, the little girl didn't touch her chopsticks again.
Not only that, after the little girl finished eating, she toddled around the front courtyard of Yongqing Palace with her chubby little legs.
As the last rays of the setting sun were about to disappear, the little girl persevered and continued walking.
Consort Lian felt extremely distressed seeing the little girl so covered in sweat.
I've gone through several handkerchiefs just for wiping my face.
But no matter how much Consort Lian tried to persuade her, the little girl wouldn't stop.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Consort Lian went to Helian Ci's room and pushed him out, as he was diligently studying military strategy.
“Ci’er, come here. You and the little princess are usually very close. You should talk to her and tell her how tired she is.”
Helian Ci, who was forcibly pushed out by his own family without saying a word: "..."
Ruo Youtan raised his dark eyes and looked at the little girl who was walking along, humming along, bathed in the last rays of the setting sun.
His sickly pale face twitched slightly, and his pale, slightly cool fingers clasped together.
He draped the brocade robe over his lap, not in a hurry to speak, but quietly watched the little girl for a while.
The little coward said he wanted to lose weight. Seeing how timid he looked back then, he thought the little coward was just talking. He never expected that he would actually take action.
Consort Lian was extremely anxious. Seeing that Helian Ci still looked unhurried and leisurely, she raised her hand and slapped Helian Ci, scolding him with dissatisfaction.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and persuade the little princess. You're getting more and more unreasonable as you get older."
Helian Ci: "..."
Just as he was about to speak, he received another pat on the shoulder from Consort Lian.
Not only that, but he also heard his own mother looking at him with displeasure and speaking in a very suspicious tone.
"Ci'er, did you say the little princess is fat again?"
Helian Ci: "...??"
During the lunch break, weren't you sitting just a few steps away from us listening?
It was clearly Father Emperor's fault, so how did it become his?
Helian Ci sighed softly, rubbing his throbbing temples. After all, she was his mother, and he couldn't say anything in response.
"Mother, it would be good to let my little princess get some exercise; it's not good for her to be too fat."
Before she could finish speaking, Consort Lian raised an eyebrow, intending to give Helian Ci another slap on the shoulder, but seeing her Ci'er's pale face...
In the end, she couldn't bring herself to do it, but she glared at Helian Ci with her beautiful eyes, clearly displeased.
"The little princess is so young, how could she be chubby? That's called being blessed; others would love to have that."
Helian Ci's sickly pale face, with its unusually red lips pressed together, suddenly felt the pain in his temples intensify.
"Father said that my little princess is fat."
"That was... what His Majesty said?"
Upon hearing that it was the Emperor who spoke, Consort Lian's words, which were meant to be useless, were abruptly cut off. She looked at Helian Ci in the wheelchair and asked in disbelief,
"Is it really true that His Majesty said that?"
Helian Ci: "..."
Helian Ci put down his fingers that were rubbing his temples and sighed helplessly, "Truly, Mother, when have I ever lied to you?"
"Since it was His Majesty who said so, then... then forget it."
Consort Lian looked embarrassedly at Si Si, who was still humming and struggling to walk with her short legs, and said with heartache,
"It's just that the little princess will suffer."
