The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 3 Makes up for the absence of the Jiji Ceremony

Li Xichen felt extremely complicated after hearing this, as if something was stuck in her throat, and it took her a long time to calm down, "Grandpa... didn't say anything."

After the queen calmed down, she ordered her servants to prepare dinner, then turned around and smoothed the wrinkles on Li Xi's shoulders, saying lovingly: "Even if His Majesty told you, it won't change anything. It's just that there will be one more sad person and one more person who is worried. Everything is over, so just put your heart at ease now."

Li Xiwei nodded hesitantly, feeling that everything was too unreal.

After having dinner at the Queen's place, there was no sign of the Emperor. As it was getting darker, the Queen arranged for him to temporarily stay in Fengyang Pavilion.

Amber beside him seemed to be about to open the box of words that she had been holding back for a long time. The servants all withdrew, and she asked fearlessly: "Master, does His Majesty want you to live in the palace in the future? But Amber thinks that Muyan Villa is worse than the palace. Although the place is not as big as here, it is free and unrestrained, and..."

Moreover, some palaces are in a dilapidated state, which is not very pleasing to the eye...

At this point, Amber felt the princess's eyes become unusual, and she trailed off after the last sentence.

Li Xiying didn't blame her, nor did she mean to say anything.

Amber nodded and slapped her lips, peeking at the princess who had closed her eyes. Her heart sank. In the past, the princess could not help laughing and joking, but today she just sat on the soft bed and no longer smiled.

This cold and solemn atmosphere lasted for a long time. Amber knew that she had said something she shouldn't have said, and then she said, "Amber dare not say it anymore. Princess, please don't be angry."

Li Xiying came back to her senses. She needed time to organize her thoughts. Everything the Queen said seemed like a lifetime ago.

"It's okay, go down."

After hearing this, Amber retreated angrily.

The next morning, Li Xiying woke up early and went to greet the queen. Seeing that her grandfather had already gone to the early court, she waited for him in the side hall of Ganlu Palace.

She felt that the master must have something else to say when he summoned her back to the palace this time, but he didn't seem to be prepared to say it now, or he hadn't thought about how to say it, otherwise there would be no need for her to wait in the master's study.

Amber looked at her princess who had been silent and felt suspicious. She hadn't seen the princess smile since the queen finished talking to her yesterday. As a maid who had served the princess since she was a child, she felt very uncomfortable.

Grandma had told her to take good care of the princess in every detail, but the princess was already in a bad mood on her first day here. She had no influence and was the dumbest among the maids, so she had no idea what to do.

After waiting for an hour, there was finally a sound outside the door. As the footsteps got closer, a deep and friendly voice reached Li Xi's ears: "Tang Xing."

Li Xi turned her head in a daze. She hadn't seen her grandfather for several years, and when she saw him again, she felt a feeling of both familiarity and strangeness.

He had become very thin, looked tired, and had grown a beard. She always remembered the vigorous and handsome appearance of her grandfather when she was a child, but now he looked a little old, and she felt mixed emotions.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. You've grown a lot taller." The emperor laughed and sat down beside the desk with a smile in his eyes.

Li Xixiao calmed down and said, "Grandma Ye took good care of me. I ate well and dressed well in the past few years. Not only did I grow taller, I also gained a lot of weight."

Although it was just a casual remark, he still noticed something strange and frowned, "It seems you are blaming me?"

She pursed her lips and said, "My daughter doesn't dare. If it weren't for your protection, I wouldn't be able to live well."

"What are you afraid of? When you get angry, you don't even call me Grandpa." He stood up with his hands behind his back and sighed, "Now that you are back in the palace, live here peacefully for a while. I know you blame me for abandoning you in the villa and not caring about you. You have suffered for so many years, but I can't do anything about it."

"Grandpa." Li Xiying called out, "My daughter knows everything."

The emperor's eyes were red. Looking at the eyes in front of him that were three-quarters similar to her mother's, her heart softened completely. "Did the queen tell you everything?"

She nodded, walked forward and helped the emperor sit down, "I don't understand the affairs of the court, but I still can't help but worry about you, Master."

"My Tang Xing has really grown up." The emperor smiled with relief and pinched her upturned nose. "Look how scared you are. The queen must have spoken too seriously. The affairs of the court are complicated. You won't understand even if I tell you. Just keep it in your heart. The sky won't fall."

"Grandpa, why do you like to pinch my nose?" Li Xiying muttered and dodged, but she believed grandpa's words a hundred percent, so she followed his advice and stopped asking further questions.

"Do you still remember the tabby cat you raised when you were a child?" said the emperor.

"A tabby cat? Of course I remember. It always stuck to me but ignored my grandfather, so my grandfather asked people to raise it to be fat and plump. It couldn't even walk and only cared about eating and sleeping. But even so, my grandfather still didn't like it." Speaking of this, Li Xiying remembered the two faces of the fat cat and couldn't help laughing.

"I see you always like to pinch its nose, saying that cats have big, fat faces, but their noses are more pleasing to the eye... Do you remember?"

"I was naughty as a child, how could Grandpa remember it so clearly?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The sun was shining brightly at noon, and in an instant the entire Daming Palace seemed to be clear of the haze, just like the time when I was a child and laughed with my grandfather.

For half a month, the harem was extremely peaceful. She often had meals with her grandfather and met her elder sister, Princess Pingyuan, who locked herself in her bedroom all day.

Pingyuan was in a very bad mood and didn't like to see people. Even when he saw Li Xiying, he didn't say a word and just stared blankly, like a beautiful body with a lost soul.

"Sister?" After calling Pingyuan three times, Li Xiying decided to give up. She walked up to her and found that she was looking at herself sitting in the bronze mirror. Her hair in the bronze mirror was slightly messy and her lips were pale. She must have suffered a lot of injustice, as her eyes were empty and without any emotion.

"Don't come over here, go out." Pingyuan blinked when he saw Tang Xing getting closer and closer to her in the mirror, his tone as calm as water.
