Seeing that the emperor really wanted to go find it himself, Cao Yu hurriedly said, "Master, we are all trying to find someone. It's a mess outside. I will ask Xiao Qianzi to find it."
The emperor said, "I have been sitting in a carriage all day, so I might as well go out for a walk." After saying that, he lifted the curtain of the tent and walked out.
Cao Yu hurried to follow.
"Where is the Li family?"
After leaving the tent, the emperor asked Cao Yu.
Like Li Wan, he took it for granted that Li Mu should be with the Li family. After all, Li Mu was only eight years old.
However, when the emperor and Cao Yu arrived at the Li family's tent area, they were told that Li Mu was not there.
The emperor's face immediately turned cold, and he left without saying anything.
Cao Yu gave the man a cold look and followed him away.
Afterwards, when the head of the Li family found out about this, he hurriedly called Mrs. Li to question her.
After finding out that Li Tu was unwilling to let Li Mu stay with them, the patriarch of the Li family was so angry that his face turned blue. He called Li Tu over, got furious, and scolded him severely. Li Tu refused to admit his mistake, so he was slapped in the face by the patriarch of the Li family and ran away crying.
Cao Yu asked someone to lead the way.
When the emperor looked over, he saw Li Mu practicing boxing on an open space. A group of people were surrounding him. Not only Li Wan was there, but also Qin Lin, the little servant, Cui Zhu and the guards. It was a very happy scene.
Li Wan and Qin Lin stood together. Qin Lin was still dressed in black with a stern expression. Li Wan was dressed in light pink palace dress with a smile on her face. She occasionally said a few words to Qin Lin. The two stood together watching Li Mu boxing. One was tall and the other was short, one was cold and the other was hot. They were really a perfect match.
The emperor felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head. His heart was chilled to the ground and he turned around and walked away without saying a word.
When Cao Yu saw this, he hesitated for a moment, but still called Li Wan: "Miss Wan!" and then hurried to chase the emperor.
The emperor said harshly, "You little dog slave! You acted on your own again! Who told you to call her that?!"
Cao Yu felt very aggrieved after being scolded and said nothing.
The emperor walked while listening to the noise behind him. He never heard Li Wan calling him. He couldn't help but asked coldly, "Is she following you?"
“Here I come.”
The one who answered him was not Cao Yu, but Li Wan.
Cao Yu consciously stepped back a few steps to leave space for the emperor and Li Wan.
The emperor froze, without turning back, and said coldly, "Why did you come here? Aren't you having fun?"
He wasn't paying attention for a moment and she actually left him and ran away.
He looked for her everywhere, but she came here to be with Qin Lin.
And smiling so happily.
Li Wan took a few quick steps and walked side by side with him: "Did you come here specially to see me?"
The emperor snorted, "Who came to see you? I'm just walking around."
Li Wan: "Oh. Then Your Majesty, please go for a walk by yourself. I won't disturb you." Then he turned around and was about to leave.
The emperor grabbed her with his backhand, turned his head and stared at her fiercely: "Just try and leave if you dare." He said this with a bit of grievance and squeezed her arm tightly.
"Do you take advantage of my liking for you and don't care about me at all?"
He wished he could stay with her every moment, but she left him and ran away at the first chance to meet Qin Lin.
Li Wan grabbed his hand with her other hand and said, "How could I not care about you? I was just worried that Li Mu was still young, and his family only sent a guard and a little servant to take care of him, so I came to check on him because I was worried."
The emperor said: "Li Mu will naturally be taken care of by Qin Lin. What are you worried about? Or did you come here just to see Qin Lin?"
Li Wan was somewhat amused and confused: "What does this have to do with Guard Qin? How did I know Guard Qin would be here?"
The emperor looked depressed: "I just don't want to see you and Qin Lin together."
Li Wan laughed: "You are being unreasonable."
The emperor glared at her and said, "How dare you say that I am unreasonable?" Then he said angrily, "Whatever you say, I am the emperor. I order you not to run around without my permission."
The emperor who was in love was simply a clingy person.
Li Wan tilted her head and asked, "Your Majesty, you have to face me all day long. Won't you get bored and tired of me?"
The emperor's expression suddenly changed: "Are you fed up with me?"
Li Wan: “…”
After hearing this, Cao Yu could not help but step back a bit, not wanting the emperor's image in his mind to collapse too completely.
When Li Wan saw Cao Yu walking away, she immediately hugged the emperor, blinked her eyes, and said sincerely: "How could I be bored with you? I like you so much that I dream about you every night."
The emperor was suddenly hugged by her while they were outside. He couldn't help feeling flustered, but he hugged her back subconsciously. Then he immediately looked up and looked around. They were now between two tents.
Seeing that there was no one around, the emperor was relieved. He retracted his gaze and stared at Li Wan. He felt a little shy and asked awkwardly, "You dream about me every night? Why haven't I heard you tell me?"
When young people fall in love, they are eager but also a little shy and proud.
It is the most intoxicating.
His lovable side is enough to make people forgive his tyranny and unreasonableness.
Although he often used his status to pressure her, it was just bluffing every time, raising it high and then putting it down lightly.
Li Wan felt amused and soft-hearted at the same time. She suppressed her laughter and asked instead of answering, "Has the emperor ever dreamed of me?"
The emperor blushed immediately.
Of course he dreamed about it.
But the dreams he had about her always became difficult to talk about.
"I never dream."
Li Wan looked at the suspicious red color rising on his cheekbones, but did not point it out. She just smiled and kissed him on the lips: "Your Majesty, don't be angry. I just miss my brother and want to come and see him. In my eyes and heart, there is no room for anyone except you."
As long as she wants, there is no one she can't appease.
The coldness between the emperor's eyebrows had long melted away. After hearing what she said, he just said awkwardly: "Anyway, in the future, you must tell me where you are going first."
Li Wan let go of his neck, bowed, and said with a smile: "Yes, I understand."
The emperor glared at her helplessly, then said, "I'm hungry, let's go back and eat." After a pause, he called Cao Yu over and said, "Go and ask someone to move Li Mu to a tent that's closer."
Cao Yu took the order and left.
Li Wan tugged at the emperor's hand: "Your Majesty, you are so kind."
The emperor snorted: "It's good that you know it. Now you can go without worry, right?"
On the way back, Li Wan followed the rules and lagged behind the emperor.
When I returned to the tent, I had just returned from Li Mu's tent, and when I saw the emperor's tent, I suddenly felt that there was a world of difference between them.
However, for an emperor, no amount of luxury is too much.
As soon as the emperor returned to his tent, Li Wan asked Xiao Qianzi to serve the meal.
The emperor washed his hands, sat behind the desk and picked up a book to read.
Li Wan was about to go out and pour him some tea. As soon as she reached the curtain, the emperor immediately looked up and asked, "Where are you going now?"
Li Wan said: "I'll go get the tea."
The emperor frowned and said, "Just ask the palace maid to go, and you stay here."
Li Wan had no choice but to lift the curtain and order the palace servants outside to pour hot tea. Then he returned to the tent and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, you are reading a book and you don't need me. Why do you have to let me stay here?"
The emperor was dissatisfied and asked, "Why do you always want to go out? Can you stay here honestly?"
Li Wan had no choice but to sit down at the table and eat the pastries and drink the cold tea.
The emperor said without even looking up: "Eat less. If you eat too much cake, you won't be able to digest it. We'll have dinner soon.
Li Wan almost choked and glanced towards the emperor with some resentment.
This person is nosy.
After a while, a palace maid came in with hot tea.
Li Wan had nothing to do, so he walked over and said, "Let me do it." Then he brought the tea to the emperor and placed the hot tea on his upper right side.
Holding a bowl of tea, she walked around the tent.
After spinning for a while, the emperor suddenly raised his head and stared at Li Wan: "Why are you spinning? You've made me dizzy. Can't you just sit quietly for a while?"
Li Wan didn't know why, but when she was in the palace, her heart was always calm. Even if she was just guarding the palace gate for a day, she seemed to be able to stay calm. But once she was outside, she could never sit still. She wanted to go outside, take a walk, take a look, even if it was just to breathe a few more breaths of free air.
The emperor also noticed that something was wrong with her, frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Li Wan said pitifully, "I want to go outside."
The emperor frowned even more tightly, and then said helplessly: "Please bear with it for a while. After dinner, I will accompany you wherever you want to go. Is that okay?"
Li Wan immediately smiled and nodded.
Xiao Qianzi's voice rang out from outside through the curtain: "Miss Wan, everything is ready."
Li Wan immediately said, "Please upload it."
Xiao Qianzi immediately lifted the curtain and came in, then rolled it up and hung it up.
The palace maids serving the meals came in one after another.
The emperor usually eats little at night, and after all, he is outside rather than in the palace.
Six side dishes were served in the blink of an eye.
Li Wan walked to the desk and said politely, "Your Majesty, please move and have your meal."
The emperor glanced at her before putting down the book and moving to the table.
Li Wan sat down without being asked.
The imperial chef from the palace also came out. This side dish was made with ingredients freshly picked from the farm. They were fried and served on the plate. They still looked green and juicy, and were very tender and delicious when eaten.
There were also some local pickled vegetables. The taste was not very exquisite, but they were special and went well with rice. Li Wan had eaten a lot of cakes and drinks that day, and the spicy pickled vegetables whetted his appetite. He used two bowls of rice just for this plate of pickled vegetables.
Seeing that Li Wan liked the pickles so much, the emperor ate more too. He only finished one bowl of rice, put down his chopsticks and watched Li Wan eat.
He never told Li Wan that he really liked watching her eat.
She ate with great relish, but didn't think her eating manners were ugly at all. On the contrary, she ate in excellent manners, putting food into her mouth in big mouthfuls without making any indecent noises. Whenever she took a few more bites of a dish, the emperor would think that the dish must be delicious and would not be able to resist wanting to have a bite as well. He was always tempted by her to eat more.
He also liked to see her eating with big mouthfuls and wanted to feed her to make her fatter and healthier.
Li Wan put down his chopsticks, picked up the tea and took a sip of the cold tea, then sighed with satisfaction.
The emperor particularly liked these little actions of hers, and couldn't help but pinch her face and said, "You look much better recently, and your face has become fatter. I have not raised you in vain."
