The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 4 Choose a Prince Consort According to Your Personality

Li Xiying did not retreat. She picked up the comb on the dressing table and tried to comb her messy hair: "Sister, we haven't seen each other for several years. Do you really want to kick me out?"

Pingyuan fell into a trance again, letting her comb his hair. Li Xiying said to herself, "My sister combed my hair for me when I was little. At that time, I was naughty and played around and my hair was always messy. Every time, grandma combed it tightly, fearing that it would get messy again. As a result, Xiying had a headache all day. My sister loved me so much that she took my hair apart and used your most precious cherry blossom oil to comb it again. It was so beautiful and neat. Later, I cherished it so much that I was afraid it would get messy again. I didn't dare to do anything big for several days."

Pingyuan raised his eyes and glanced at Li Xiying. This time he did not look away, and his lips moved: "Tang Xing?"

"Yes, sister." Li Xiying put down the comb and squatted in front of her, looking up and said, "I miss you so much, but I haven't been to the palace. I always hope that you can go out of the palace to play with me. To be honest, I have been back to the palace for half a month, and I found that everything has changed a lot. There are fewer fun places, so I thought of coming to take a look at my sister's place."

"You said you missed me, but on the other hand you only remembered to look for me half a month ago. Isn't that contradictory?" Ping Yuan picked out the loopholes in her words just like he did when he was a child. Only then did Li Xiying relax. Seeing that she seemed to remember her childhood, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

"If my sister found out, I thought she would be mad at me."

"You didn't blame me for neglecting you, so how could I be angry with you? I won't be angry with anyone..." She paused, "I just feel a little uncomfortable."

"I think my sister doesn't look too well. Why don't we go for a walk in the garden? The plum blossoms are in full bloom at this time of year, and the fragrance is fragrant. The sun is shining brightly. If we wait for the spring snow to melt completely, we'll have to wait until next year for them to bloom again. You can also pick a branch and bring it home to add a touch of color to the house, which will make you feel better."

Li Xixiao took her slender arm and went out. The servant outside was slightly surprised to see Pingyuan go out. Thinking that it was cold outside, he immediately went back to the house to get a cloak and put it on her.

The sunlight shone on his cheeks, and Pingyuan subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands. After slowly adjusting to the light outside, he arrived at the garden.

Many branches and leaves have sprouted green leaves, and the ground is still covered with a thin layer of snow. The air is filled with the fragrance of plum blossoms, and under the white sky, the clusters of red look extremely gorgeous and dazzling.

Pingyuan followed Li Xi's example and closed his eyes, feeling the fragrance of plum blossoms at the tip of his nose. It seemed as if the haze in his heart was instantly washed away.

Li Xiying broke off one and put it in her hair, but the light reflected by the tears in the corners of her eyes dazzled her eyes.

She was slightly stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and then smiled and said, "I remember my sister once said that when you grow up, you don't want to waste your years like the old concubines in the harem. You like plum blossoms, landscapes, painting, and songs... I'm afraid you will never be able to finish the things you want to do in this lifetime..."

Tears kept flowing from Pingyuan's eyes. She stopped talking and felt a little helpless. The next moment, Pingyuan put his arms around her waist.

Pingyuan's tears flowed out like a river bursting its dam, almost wetting Li Xiying's shoulders.

After a long while, she spoke vaguely: "Xi Xi... I don't know what to do..."

Li Xiying gently patted her back, calmed her down and said, "We can never go back to the carefree days of our childhood. We should look forward to the future, isn't it?"

Pingyuan choked with sobs and couldn't utter a word.

"Sister, just cry and it'll be ok. When I was a kid, you comforted me when I was wronged. Now that you're wronged, it's my turn to comfort you."

Pingyuan cried even louder. Now she didn't care about the people around her, her own identity, or anything else. When she was wronged, she would just cry her heart out.

Li Xiying hummed her favorite childhood ballad over and over again. The servant beside her stepped far away, not daring to disturb her, but she was inevitably infected by the scene and her eyes became red.

Maybe he cried too hard and fainted on her shoulder. Several maids sent Pingyuan back to his room, and he woke up after half a minute.

She looked at Pingyuan on the bed, and suddenly heard a "Gurgle Gurgle..." sound, and they burst out laughing at each other.

When you are in a good mood, you will be hungry easily. The maid beside you was also very considerate and immediately went out to tell someone to prepare some food.

Pingyuan sat up, took her hand and said, "Xi Xuan, Grandpa asked you to return to the palace. Do you know why?"

Li Xiying thought for a while and wondered, "I don't know either. Maybe he misses me very much."

"You should have reached the age of 15 last year, right?"

"What does sister mean?" Li Xiying guessed.

Pingyuan nodded, and said tacitly: "It's almost certain. You are old enough. Although Grandpa is a saint, he is also a father. Of course he has to think about you."

Li Xiying shook her head fiercely, "Sister, you're overthinking. I think I'm still young!"

A girl is of marriageable age when she reaches the age of 15, so it is not impossible that her grandfather would call her back to the palace to urgently resolve this major event in her life.

Pingyuan stroked her hair and smiled, "If that's the case, you don't have to be afraid. Grandpa will definitely choose a consort according to your personality. Our Xi Xi is so beautiful, how bad can the consort be?"

"Sister, stop teasing me. If this is true, I won't have time to escape! How can a child who is still a half-grown child get married? At least... at least I have to wait another two years." Li Xi said with a blushing face.

"Okay, okay, as long as Grandpa doesn't say anything, just have fun. You can marry a good husband in ten years, not to mention two years."

After a short break from the laughter, the maid brought in food. Li Xi could no longer wait and muttered, "I feel very upset about what my sister said. I will go to my grandfather and ask him about it. If this is the case, I will sneak back to the manor and wait two years."

"Xi-Chen!"

Li Xiying ran to the door, turned around and waited for her to speak.

Pingyuan continued, "Will you really always follow your heart?"

Li Xiying nodded affirmatively, "Of course, once I make a decision, even ten cows can't pull me back!"

After they finished talking for a long time, Pingyuan stared at Li Xiying's graceful retreating back in a trance, until that back completely merged into the scenery outside the window.

Amber followed Li Xiying. She had just seen her chatting with Princess Pingyuan. Her mood was gradually getting better, but now her brows were furrowed again.

Li Xi asked where His Majesty would be moved to if he was not in Ganlu Palace.

When she was about to reach the door of the Queen's bedroom, she made a gesture to silence the palace maids who were about to report at the door, indicating them not to pass on the message.
