Sister Xin quickly looked at him and suddenly realized, "Oh, Grandpa Huang, don't you know how to count? It doesn't matter. I'll teach you."

"Cough cough cough!" Huilan almost choked on her saliva.

Li Chengze patted her and shook his head to express that it was okay.

The emperor ignored them and just played with the children, "Then you can teach Grandpa Pope."

"Well, come and let me teach you. Give me your hands and count like this."

Sister Xin was like a master, teaching the emperor to count with great patience.

Seeing that the emperor and the children were having a good time, Yu Heguang poured them a cup of tea and offered it to them, "The emperor hasn't been this happy for a long time, it doesn't matter."

Sister Xin glanced at her halfway through the count and said, "Eunuch Yu, I'm thirsty too."

"Okay, I will give you a glass of water and go get some honey."

Yu Heguang immediately agreed repeatedly, but instead of serving tea, he asked the young eunuch for honey to mix with water for the child.

Sister Xin drank the honey water and said with a sweet smile, "Thank you, father-in-law."

"Oh! What a good boy."

Yu Heguang was as happy as anything, with wrinkles on his smiling face.

Sister Xin handed the water to the emperor and said, "Grandpa Emperor, please drink some too. Look, the corners of your mouth are peeling and you are getting angry. You need to drink some honey water. Drink it. It will be sweet."

"Okay, Grandpa Huang, drink it, um, it's sweet."

The emperor's eyes suddenly became dazzled with joy, and the expression on his face while holding the child relaxed, and his expression became more and more loving.

"Okay, Sister Xin, stop pestering Grandpa Huang and come down quickly. Grandpa Huang and your father have serious things to talk about, so we should go back."

"Okay, Grandpa Huang, I'll step back now and won't disturb you anymore."

Sister Xin slipped out of the emperor's lap again, stood up and bowed before running towards Huilan.

"Yu Heguang, go to the warehouse to pick out some toys that the children like and give them as gifts to the mother and daughter. Ms. Ding, you have taught your children very well."

The emperor nodded slightly to Huilan with satisfaction.

"This is my duty, so I have to step aside first."

"Go ahead."

The emperor wants to talk to the prince about something serious.

Li Chengze touched his daughter's little face, and Huilan led her back to the East Palace.

"Chengze, you have changed. I am very pleased that you have changed. You did a great job on this trip to Yunnan. I am very satisfied."

The emperor looked at his son who had changed greatly and felt very proud in his heart.

"This is what I should do, and I don't deserve the praise from my father."

"Okay, you go back and rest first. For dinner, father and son, we will have a drink together, and you can also tell me about Yunnan."

"Yes, the son will go see the Imperial Grandmother and the Queen Mother before going back."

"Well, go ahead."

The emperor nodded.

Li Chengze visited the Queen Mother and the Empress respectively before returning to the East Palace. Today, the Prince has achieved military success and his prestige is no longer the same. Even the Empress can no longer scold him with the same attitude as before. Instead, she expresses her very kind condolences.

After caring about him, he let him go.

Huilan and her children immediately went to Yongning Hall to pay their respects to the Crown Princess.

"I, Liangdi, wish the Crown Princess well and ask the Crown Princess Zhuang well."

"Sister Xin asked the Crown Princess about her makeup arrangements."

This was not taught by Huilan, but by Li Chengze.

"Get up, Sister Xin, you should call me your legitimate mother-in-law. Didn't your mother teach you?"

Zhou Ying glanced at Huilan provocatively, and Huilan's eyebrows were downcast and motionless.

Sister Xin blinked, "Hey? But my father taught me to call you like this. My father said that you are the Crown Princess and very noble. He asked me to call you the Crown Princess. Otherwise, it will be considered disrespectful. Who should I listen to, Mother?"

?Did I do something wrong?"

She is young and doesn't quite understand the difference. This is what her father taught her.

Zhou Ying's expression changed on the spot, she tightened her handkerchief and said nothing, her face as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Sister Xin was so frightened that she hid in Huilan's arms.

"You can shout whatever you want, as long as you respect the Crown Princess."

Huilan will not wrong her own child. My daughter was not wrong in the first place. What are you trying to do to an ignorant child?

"Okay, please step back."

Zhou Ying quickly waved her hand and sent them away.

"yes."

Huilan took her daughter and turned around to leave.

When she returned to Qinghui Garden, Sister Xin lowered her head and pouted, not very happy.

"What's wrong with Sister Xin? Are you scared?"

Sister Xin shook her head and said, "Concubine, I don't like the Crown Princess. She is so fierce. The way she looks at Concubine makes me scared."

"Don't be afraid. My parents are protecting Sister Xin. Sister Xin is the bravest female warrior, right?"

Huilan knelt down and looked at her daughter's little face, giving her gentle encouragement.

Sister Xin nodded, "Well, I want to be a female warrior."

There are always soldiers in armor around her, and she has the most direct impression of soldiers. She always says that she wants to be a soldier, so Huilan just coaxes her to play with her, hoping that she can learn the advantages of being strong and brave from soldiers.

"So, why is our female general even afraid of a black face? Isn't she a little timid?"

Huilan pursed her lips and sighed deliberately.

"No, I'm not afraid of her. I just don't like her."

"Good daughter, if we don't like it, we can keep it in our hearts, but we can't show it on our faces or say it out loud, otherwise our father will be very embarrassed. We are the most obedient little cotton-padded jackets, aren't we?"

Sister Xin nodded and sighed like a little adult, "Hey! Daddy is so pitiful for marrying a dominatrix."

"Who is the dominatrix?"

Li Chengze heard this sentence when he entered the door.

"Father, you are back. Let me tell you that I just went to pay my respects to the Crown Princess. Her face was so ugly and scary, especially like the hag in the story."

Miss Xin's little mouth may have complained, and she also said that Zhou Ying is a dominatrix.

"Don't talk nonsense. Who taught you to talk nonsense? You are uneducated."

Huilan was a little angry. How could the younger generation slander the elders?

"Okay, Sister Xin, you can't say that, and you're not allowed to say that to anyone, remember."

Li Chengze looked at his daughter and gave special instructions.

"I remembered it, but I thought no one would know, and I wouldn't tell anyone."

Sister Xin understood quickly, holding her head up proudly, with a look of reluctance to admit defeat.

"Dad's daughter is the smartest and most sensible. Let's not tell anyone that she is ugly, otherwise it will embarrass other people, which is not good, right?"

Li Chengze comforted the girl that we should be more generous in our lives.

"okay."

Sister Xin nodded. She also felt that it was not her fault that Zhou Ying was ugly. It was a bit pitiful. Forget it, I won't say that you look like a dominatrix. Children must be kind. I am the kindest little cutie.

"Be good! Go take the princess to take a bath."

Li Chengze then smiled and asked someone to take his daughter down to bathe and change clothes.

"How was your chat with the Emperor?"

"It's not bad. I just said a few words and didn't say much, but it looks like my father is in a good mood."

"I will take Sister Xin to visit the Queen Mother in the afternoon. I visited the Queen when I came back just now."

Huilan was never short of etiquette. She didn't go to the Queen Mother because she wanted to sort out the gifts she had brought back, so she brought a gift to the Queen Mother to send there specially.

"Okay, go ahead. Grandma Huang asked about you. I said you were preparing gifts to send to her."
