Tang Dynasty：Live with princess Changele, Li Er is going crazy

Chapter 52: Meticulous hot soup to warm your heart!

Li Lizhi nodded, “Yes, Father!”

Li Shimin was in a good mood and smiled, “I haven’t been this happy for a long time!”

I’ve been overwhelmed by heating supply issues recently, but now that matter is resolved. Of course, these developments are gratifying. What pleases Li Shimin the most is achieving success without resources and gain from the aristocracy.

This is truly satisfying!

Additionally, Li Lizhi gave Yujiagou a 30% share of coal, and the expert contributed 10% of the thermal underwear – that’s all money!

Now the treasury is struggling!

“Father’s joy brings happiness to his child too!”

Li Shimin looked at Li Lizhi affectionately, “It’s getting late. Go back and rest early!”

“Yes, Father Emperor. Your child takes their leave!” Li Lizhi bowed and left.

“The road is slippery, be careful!”

“My son, remember!”

Li Lizhi entered the side hall and said, “Let’s go home!”

“Yes, Your Royal Highness!” Yushu hurriedly followed.

Li Shimin looked at the memorials on the table and suddenly felt these things seemed unimportant. Li Shimin lost interest, too.

Seeing Li Shimin’s distraction, Zhang Anan whispered, “Your Majesty, it’s getting late. Rest earlier!”

Li Shimin waved his hand, “I can’t sleep!”

Thinking about what Li Lizhi said earlier, Li Shimin couldn’t contain his excitement.

It’s too late now. Empress Zhangsun had already rested. Otherwise, Li Shimin would have gone to Lizheng Hall to share this matter with her.

…

Thermal underwear, a scarf, and gloves – it’s very cold now, but Li Lizhi didn’t feel cold anymore.

I’m in a good mood. The brazier and coals are burning back in the bedroom, but Xiao Ran is not there.

Li Lizhi initially didn’t see Xiao Ran, feeling a little disappointed. Xiao Ran must have gone to sleep at this hour before. Li Lizhi initially wanted to share with Xiao Ran, but she must wait until tomorrow.

Li Lizhi checked the brazier. The coal inside could still burn for a long time, almost until midnight.

This lasting time is really unmatched by charcoal.

Through the screen, Li Lizhi saw that the light on the other side was still on, and she was overjoyed.

Walking towards the bedroom, Li Lizhi noticed Xiao Ran wasn’t on the bed, indicating he hadn’t slept yet.

“Xiao Ran! I’m back!” Li Lizhi exclaimed as she headed towards the bedroom.

Hearing her from the kitchen, Xiao Ran emerged and asked, “Changle, why were you gone for so long?”

“The Princess Mansion is a bit far from the Taiji Palace!” Li Lizhi replied.

Xiao Ran lightly patted the snow on Li Lizhi’s clothes, suggesting, “It’s not cold here. You can take off the scarf now!”

Li Lizhi extended her hand willingly, saying, “And this too!” As she referred to her gloves.

Xiao Ran chuckled, removed the gloves, and commented, “It’s not cold anymore. Let’s take off the scarf too!”

Li Lizhi, increasingly enjoying the care, nodded and suggested, “Let’s warm up by the heater.”

“Sure!” Li Lizhi agreed.

Xiao Ran handed her a bowl of egg drop soup, saying, “It’s not much, but it should warm you up.”

Li Lizhi added some sesame oil, enhancing the flavor, and happily remarked, “It smells so good!”

Seeing Li Lizhi’s delight, Xiao Ran couldn’t tell if she was overlooking something or genuinely didn’t mind.

Li Lizhi, still wanting more, exclaimed, “I’m so full!” and patted her belly.

“Go wash up and get some rest!” Xiao Ran advised.

Li Lizhi nodded and went to the bathroom while Xiao Ran took care of the dishes. After a quick wash, Li Lizhi returned to the bedroom, checking the brazier before lying down.

Though it was colder outside, Li Lizhi felt warm and cozy.

Once Li Lizhi fell asleep, Xiao Ran joined her in the bedroom, not rushing their acquaintance.

“It’s only been two days. Patience is key,” Xiao Ran thought to himself.

Lying down, he turned off the lights, saying, “Changle, good night!”

“Xiao Ran, good night!” Li Lizhi responded.

Excited by her return and the warm soup, Li Lizhi found sleeping hard. Feeling that Xiao Ran was asleep, she couldn’t resist approaching him, crossing the invisible boundary.

Rubbing against the bed, she thought, “You initiated this. I won’t hold back in the future.”

Xiao Ran’s lips curled slightly in the darkness, continuing to feign sleep.
