Li Shimin was reviewing memorials in the Liangyi Hall when he saw a little head poking in from the hall door.

The little kid pouted and peeked at him for a while, his eyes rolling around.

After a while, he covered his mouth and laughed, "Hehehehehe."

The little face is mischievous and it seems like he is thinking about something good.

Li Shimin pretended not to know and continued to handle official business.

After a while, his attention was focused on the memorial sent from the local authorities.

Yuan Yuan sneaked into the hall, crawled on the ground, and tactically hid behind a pillar to peek.

He climbed and climbed again, turned over, made a feint to the east and attacked in the west, and hid under the imperial desk.

Li Shimin wrote comments on the memorial with one hand and took out a purse from his bosom with the other hand and put it on the table.

In just a moment, the child's hand reached out from under the table and smuggled the purse under the table.

Soon, the little hand grabbed two Qiuqiu candies and put them back on the table.

Then there was the sound of a child eating under the table.

The good uncle smiled and took a Qiuqiu candy and put it in his mouth.

He sighed in his heart, how nice it would be if the little kid would always be so well-behaved and not cheat others.

As I was thinking this, a chicken crowed "Cock-a-doodle-doo" from under the table.

You know what, I have learned it quite well.

Li Shimin bent down and looked under the table, and happened to make eye contact with the little guy who stuck his head out.

Yuan Yuan said mysteriously, "Uncle Erlang, do you want to be my study partner?"

Li Shimin: "..."

No thanks.

The kid came closer and hooked his chubby finger at him.

"So do you want to be Bao Zhuzhu's study partner?"

Li Shimin: “……???”

Yuan Yuan crawled out from under the table and said anxiously, "Bao Zhuzhu has broken off the engagement with the prince! She doesn't have a husband anymore, she can't be without a study companion!!!"

"Studying together is so much fun. My elder and second brothers are so happy today!!!"

Li Shimin coughed and said patiently: "This... the princesses in the palace have never had a companion. Baozhu is only a princess now. How can she call for a companion without the princess?"

He whispered to the kid, "Why not ask the Emperor to find a wife for Baozhu from the royal family?"

Just as Yuan Yuan was about to speak, Li Shimin interrupted her: "I asked the prince to take out ten sets of dowry from the storehouse of the East Palace. He has let down the precious pig, so in the future he will be asked to give the precious pig a dowry."

Good mother, open your little mouth into an "O" shape.

Da Huang and his family only had ten boxes of betrothal gifts, which were saved by her, the retired emperor, and brother Ying Zheng together! ! !

In the afternoon, Li Chengqian looked at the servants who were going in and out to move things from his private storehouse, and he felt as if he was hollowed out.

He had only been in the Eastern Palace for a short time. When he first came here, all the property belonging to the former Crown Prince Li Jiancheng had been confiscated into the national treasury.

And he has not yet grown up to the age where he needs to be "honored by officials".

The sources of wealth in the Eastern Palace treasury nowadays, apart from the fiefdom and estate he received before being crowned the Crown Prince, are gifts from the Emperor, Empress Dowager, the retired Emperor and other elders.

There weren't many originally.

Now we are back to the time before the enthronement ceremony overnight.

Yuan Yuan craned his neck to watch Zhang Ananda counting the items, and whispered, "Brother Crown Prince is so poor!!!"

The prince was shot in the heart.

"I have more treasures than the prince!!!"

Another arrow.

The little kid patted his chest and said fearfully, "It's a good thing the engagement was cancelled..."

Thousands of arrows pierce the heart.

Li Chengqian reached out and rubbed the little guy's head.

"You little rascal, how can you be so disrespectful to me? You don't have the slightest respect for me."

"Look at those packed boxes. The gaps are filled with money and silk. They are so tight. How dare you despise my brother for being poor???"

Yuan Yuan stretched his neck to look over there, and was so satisfied that he started laughing, “Hahahaha.”

Soon, Li Tai's gloating voice was heard from outside.

"Brother, I am here to see your joke... No, I am here to help!!!"

Li Chengqian's face turned black.

It is true that good news never travels far, but bad news travels far and wide.

In the afternoon, when Yuan Dalang came to pick up his little niece, he saw a convoy following his own carriage.

Upon asking, I found out that it was the dowry of the puppy Baozhu.

Yuan Dalang was shocked.

Whose dog has so much dowry?

No, who's dog is preparing a dowry? ? ?

People are really worse than dogs.

Yuan Dalang secretly discussed with his niece: "After receiving so much dowry, you can't take away your uncle's private money."

Yuan Yuan nodded generously: "Yeah, yeah."

Anyway, she had already left this morning and went to buy candied fruits with Erhuang.

Let’s wait until uncle hides more!
