Chapter 50: Princess Changle’s Secret Heart!
“Now it’s dark, the road is slippery, it’s snowing, and the wind is still strong – I’m freezing!” Xiao Ran grasped Li Lizhi’s arm.
Li Lizhi didn’t object to such close behavior.
“My parents are worried. Let them know soon. Otherwise, my parents won’t sleep well tonight, and I won’t be able to sleep either,” Li Lizhi said earnestly.
Seeing Li Lizhi’s expression, Xiao Ran knew he couldn’t dissuade him.
“Come with me!” Xiao Ran took Li Lizhi back to the living room.
Grabbing a white scarf, he said, “This is mine. Use it for now. I’ll buy you a new one tomorrow.”
Without waiting for Li Lizhi to respond, Xiao Ran tied it around her neck.
“Is it tight? How does it feel?” He asked.
Shaking her head, Li Lizhi replied, “Not tight, just right, and very warm.”
Xiao Ran picked up a pair of gloves and said, “These are mine. They might be big for you, but it’s better than nothing.”
Li Lizhi nodded with a shy smile. Xiao Ran felt it was nice.
“Okay, that should do. Go early and come back early. It’s too late now.”
“Got it!” Li Lizhi was happy.
Returning to her palace, she touched the warm scarf, feeling even warmer inside. The gloves, though a bit big, were fuzzy and warm.
Li Lizhi walked out, calling Yushu. “Princess, accompany me to meet my father!”
Yushu, curious about the snug scarf, nodded and followed Li Lizhi.
Seeing Li Lizhi’s excitement, Yushu could tell she was elated. Li Lizhi tried to stay calm, but the thrill of helping her father, outsmarting the aristocrats, and aiding Changan’s refugees overwhelmed her.
And then there was Xiao Ran’s recent gesture, leaving Li Lizhi with lingering, unusual feelings. Her mind replayed Xiao Ran earnestly, putting the scarf around her neck and donning the gloves.
Thinking about it, her face turned even redder.
“Your Highness, slow down, the road is slippery!” Yushu reminded in a low voice.
“This palace knows!”
…
Taiji Palace…
Zhang Anan quickly entered the main hall, “Your Majesty, Princess Changle, please see me!”
Li Shimin was shocked, “It’s so late, what’s going on?”
Zhang Anan didn’t know either.
Li Shimin didn’t think too much and quickly said, “Let Lizhi in. It’s cold outside!”
Li Shimin said this and got up, walking briskly outside.
Seeing Li Lizhi and Yushu standing in the wind and snow, “I’ve seen my father!”
Li Shimin pulled Li Lizhi, “It’s cold outside, come in!”
At this point, Li Shimin guessed that things were not simple. Seeing Li Lizhi’s appearance, the joy on his face was undisguised. Li Shimin knew it was good to come here at night!
“Yes, Royal Father!”
Entering the Taiji Hall, Li Shimin looked at Li Lizhi’s attire and noticed the scarf and gloves.
I have never seen this, and it seems to be quite warm.
“What’s the rush? You have to come to see me at night!” Li Shimin said and patted the snow on Li Lizhi’s body.
Li Lizhi looked at Yushu and Zhang Anan next to him.
Li Shimin nodded, and Zhang Anan said, “Your maidservant will leave!”
Zhang Anan and Yushu went to the side hall.
Li Lizhi looked at Li Lizhi dotingly, “Can I talk to my father now?”
Li Shimin was also looking forward to the good news that Li Lizhi would bring and was so happy.
“Father, the master can solve the heating problem now.” Li Lizhi said excitedly.
“Tell me quickly!”
Indeed!
Li Shimin knew it was great news, and he did not disappoint Li Shimin at all.
“The expert has found a substitute for charcoal, which can completely replace charcoal. The quantity is huge, and it can be supplied to the people of Changan City to burn for several years.”
Li Shimin was shocked!
The number is so scary. As long as Li Shimin can survive this winter, he will be satisfied.
“Replacing charcoal? What is it!” Even Li Shimin, flattered and humiliated, was a little excited now.
The sound is different.
“Coal!”
Li Shimin felt like being poured down by a basin of cold water. The smile on his face suddenly froze!
“Coal… charcoal? It’s just…” Li Shimin gestured, “Is it the coal that my father understood?”
Li Shimin now feels quite uneasy and uncomfortable.
“Yes! Father Emperor, it’s coal!”
“That works?” Li Shimin felt his IQ being rubbed against the ground like crazy.
Now Li Shimin understood why Li Lizhi did not hesitate to exchange his good land east of the city for the land in Yujiagou that no one wanted.
There are coal mines, and Li Shimin also knows about them.
