Chapter 174 The scorching little sun
Manager Shang smiled slightly, and then replied: “Your Highness, it’s about the next Royal Garden Competition.”

“Isn’t there still a few days left?”

Princess Ankang asked curiously.

Counting the days, the next Royal Garden competition is about to begin again.

I don’t know what projects Emperor Yongyuan has prepared this time.

“Your Highness, this time due to some special reasons, the time and location of the competition have been slightly changed.”

As Manager Shang said, he got on a beautifully crafted golden scroll.

Princess Ankang took the scroll and opened it, and found a few lines of words inside.

The content above is very concise, marked with the date, location, and precautions.

The date is tomorrow, the location is Juhan Palace, the precautions are to keep warm, and you are only allowed to bring one valet, etc. These are relatively small, but there are also a variety of things.

The last note seems a bit strange. It is already summer, and even the former Princess Ankang is gradually taking off her fur at this time.

“Manager Shang, what’s this note about?”

Princess Ankang pointed to the content on the scroll and asked in confusion.

Manager Shang just smiled mysteriously and did not respond directly.

“Your Highness the Princess will know when the time comes. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with having a few extra thick clothes.”

Li Xuan was in Princess Ankang’s arms, looking up at the content on the scroll.

He knew that Juhan Palace was not far from their Jingyang Palace.

It’s just that the place is closed all year round and there are no people around it. Li Xuan doesn’t know what it is doing.

It’s just not far from their Jingyang Palace, so I’m afraid it’s not a good place.

“Then Mr. Shang, can I still take Ah Xuan with me tomorrow?”

Princess Ankang is afraid that pets can be considered as valets.

“Haha, that’s okay.”

Manager Shang couldn’t help but smile and said.

“Axuan is not considered a personal attendant. It does not violate the rules if the three of you go together tomorrow.”

After hearing this, Princess Ankang felt relieved and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

“That’s good.”

Seeing that the news had been conveyed, Manager Shang prepared to leave.

“Your Highness, I hope you will take good care of the scroll.”

“I still have to inform the other highnesses, so I’ll take my leave now.”

Princess Ankang nodded and put away the valuable golden scroll.

“Okay, we really have Manager Laoshang.”

Yu’er sent Manager Shang away, and when she came back, she saw Princess Ankang instructing Li Xuan to bite the gold on the scroll to identify the authenticity.

It wasn’t until Li Xuan made a mark with his teeth that Princess Ankang nodded with satisfaction.

“Hey, he turns out to be a real guy.”

“Axuan, you did it beautifully!”

Yu’er smiled helplessly, walked forward and asked:

“Your Highness, Manager Shang just said that he should take good care of this thing, but why did he turn around and get bitten by A Xuan?”

Yu’er took the golden scroll, with some distress flashing in her eyes.

There are two more tooth marks on the beautifully crafted scroll. You said it was caused by this.

“Hehe, I just want to see how pure this gold is.”

“Axuan just bit it without much effort. It seems that the gold is quite pure.”

Princess Ankang has been in good health recently and has become more naughty and energetic for her age.

Li Xuan curled his lips, let alone gold, with his current teeth, he could bite two holes in an iron block.

The two girls at home still have no clear idea of ​​Li Xuan’s strength.

“By the way, sister Yu’er.”

“Do you know where this Juhan Palace is?”

“Why does the name sound a bit unlucky?”

Princess Ankang became superstitious at this time.

“It’s not that there’s anything bad about it.”

Yu’er thought for a while and explained:
“Actually, Juhan Palace is not far from our place. It is the ice cellar of the West Palace. In winter, I even helped them move ice into the warehouse.”

Yu’er used to go out to work for others to make money, and she did all kinds of hard work.

I never miss a single move of ice to the warehouse every year.

In the middle of winter, you will know how bitter it is just to think about sending large pieces of cut ice into the ice cellar.

“Sister Yu’er…”

Hearing this, Princess Ankang looked at Yu’er with heartache.

Yu’er realized that she had made a mistake, so she quickly shut up and didn’t mention what happened before.

But seeing Princess Ankang’s eyes, I still felt warm in my heart.

“It’s really nothing.”

“And now that our lives are better, we don’t have to do those things anymore.”

Princess Ankang nodded, lowered her head and said apologetically: “Sister Yu’er, you worked really hard in the past.”

“Your Highness, this is what I should do. It doesn’t have to be like this.”

Yu’er touched Princess Ankang’s hair and comforted her.

In fact, although the past days were bitter, Yu’er didn’t feel anything.

I even somewhat enjoyed my efforts at that time.

Because she can really feel what she is doing for Princess Ankang.

Yu’er then changed the topic and said, “Mr. Shang is right. You really need to prepare some thick clothes when you go to Juhan Palace tomorrow.”

“Even though the weather has improved recently, it’s still very cold in that place.”

“Calculating the time, it should be almost time to use ice.”

“I don’t know what will be played there tomorrow?”

As soon as Yu’er said this, Li Xuan and Princess Ankang also became curious.

This was the first time that Emperor Yongyuan changed the time and place of the competition, and he didn’t know what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd.

……

On the second day, the three little ones arrived at Juhan Palace on time.

When they arrived, many princes and princesses had already arrived at the entrance of Juhan Palace.

According to the requirements, each person can only bring one attendant.

Therefore, today it was Princess Ankang who was the one with the biggest show.

After all, she has an extra cat here.

Compared to the previous games, today was deserted.

None of the concubines and ladies were present, which made Li Xuandu feel a little strange.

The note on the scroll mentioned that you can only bring one attendant, but it didn’t say that you couldn’t bring your mother.

Those concubines are all so interested in the competition, even if they change places, none of them should come.

“what happened?”

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Li Xuan noticed something was wrong.

On the other hand, the other princes and princesses were calm and composed, and were not surprised at all by the concubines who were not present.

“It’s strange, it’s so deserted today.” Princess Ankang looked around and whispered.

“Yes, none of the ladies are here.”

Yu’er said, distributing the clothes in her hands to Princess Ankang and Li Xuan.

Princess Ankang still wears the familiar fur, and also has a pair of gloves and cotton shoes.

Yu’er was dressed similarly, except that she was wearing a thick cotton coat.

And Li Xuan also has a lot of equipment. In addition to a small cotton-padded coat, he also has four small cotton-padded shoes, which are exquisitely made and cute. Yu’er rushed to make them yesterday.

Li Xuan looks even cuter in this outfit.

It wasn’t that they didn’t mind the heat and were dressed like this before entering the Juhan Palace, but when they arrived at the door, they felt that the temperature had dropped several degrees, and even the cold air escaped from inside, making people shiver.

The other princes and princesses waiting at the door also changed into winter clothes early.

But compared to the cotton-padded clothes worn by the three little ones from Jingyang Palace, they were covered in various fur products, which looked much more high-end.

Among the three little ones, only Princess Ankang has a fur, which is relatively old.

Of course, if we were to count it out, Li Xuan barely had one on him.

Originally, with Li Xuan’s current physique, a little coldness could no longer affect him.

But Yu’er tried her best to make small clothes and shoes. How could Li Xuan not wear them?

Moreover, Li Xuan is now afraid of cold rather than heat, so wearing more layers will not have much impact.

The three little ones were muttering to themselves when suddenly a voice sounded from beside them.

“His Majesty has specifically ordered that no one else is allowed to watch this time.”

The three little ones were startled and turned around to see that Zhao Feng had appeared beside them at some point.

“Manager Zhao, you should say something first.”

Princess Ankang was startled and complained softly.

“Your Highness, didn’t I make a sound?”

Zhao Feng replied seriously.

“…”

Princess Ankang was speechless.

Li Xuan looked at Zhao Feng silently.

Although Zhao Feng came over to joke, Li Xuan could feel that his interest was not high.

Although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile at all.

It seems that the previous events still had a lot of impact on him.

Li Xuan didn’t know how deep the relationship between Zhao Feng and Zhao Bugao was.

But looking at Zhao Feng’s unforgettable look, he probably valued this adopted son very much.

It’s just that things in the world are unpredictable, and no one could have imagined that it would turn out like this in the end.

Zhao Feng noticed the way Li Xuan looked at him, and just smiled gently at him, then stretched out his fingers and swept the hair on his head.

“Get ready, it’s time to begin.”

Zhao Feng left these words and left their side.

He silently walked to the door of Juhan Palace, closed his eyes and rested, waiting for the time to start.

When the other princes and princesses saw Zhao Feng arriving, they couldn’t help but become quiet.

It’s just that Zhao Feng’s previous actions in talking to Princess Ankang made many people a little concerned.

As Princess Ankang won the imperial garden competition prize twice in succession, other princes and princesses could no longer ignore the existence of Jingyang Palace.

Especially those who are interested in preserving the throne, regard Princess Ankang as their formidable enemy.

It may be luck once, but twice in a row cannot be explained simply by good luck.

And just when everyone was afraid of Princess Ankang, an exclamation suddenly sounded from her side.

“so cute–“

“Ah, I’m dead!”

When Li Xuan heard this voice, he felt something bad and turned his head to look. The little girl who appeared in his sight was indeed the little girl in his memory.

The configuration is similar to that of Princess Ankang. At the same time, she is accompanied by a palace maid and a cat in her arms.

It’s just that there is a shakudama in the other person’s arms.

“Meow~”

Bai Xiao happily greeted Li Xuan.

Bai Xiao’s outfit is even more exquisite, with a small hat and tail cover, and a cape that is as white and flawless as her hair.

Bai Xiao’s appearance immediately made Li Xuan look like a cat-like cannon.

“So curly?”

Before Li Xuan could say anything, Yu’er silently stepped forward, covered his eyes, and muttered:
“Axuan, let’s not compete on food or clothing.”

“Only better than…”

“It’s just about competition results.”

Yu’er still had some conscience, at least she remained silent for a moment before continuing to talk nonsense.

Li Xuan felt a little funny.

He is not a child, how can he feel inferior to these things.

At this time, Princess Yuan’an’s voice continued to sound:

“Sister Thirteenth, I am Yuan An, the fourteenth. This is my first time meeting you. Please give me your advice.”

Princess Yuan’an was also dressed in white today, looking like an enlarged version of Bai Xiao.

But his words surprised Li Xuan.

“Is this her first time meeting Ankang?”

“It’s strange. Has she never been to the Royal Garden Party before, and she didn’t participate in the two previous competitions?”

When Li Xuan saw Princess Yuanan before, he felt a little familiar and thought he had seen her somewhere before.

But from what she meant, it seemed like it was her first time meeting the three little ones from Jingyang Palace.

Princess Ankang was frightened by Princess Yuanan’s enthusiasm. She nodded somewhat bewilderedly and replied: “Hello, Princess Yuanan.”

Princess Ankang was also very curious when looking at this imperial sister who was ranked just below her.

This was her first time meeting this sister.

With just one glance, Princess Ankang could see Princess Yuanan’s personality.

Princess Yuan’an is like a little sun, warm and dazzling.

That eye-catching light made Princess Ankang feel a little uncomfortable subconsciously.

There is even an urge to run away from this little sun.

Because for some reason, Princess Ankang felt fear for the first time, a complex emotion intertwined with fear and longing.

Princess Ankang felt as if she had done something wrong in front of this imperial sister, and unconsciously avoided her eyes.

But Princess Yuanan was unwilling to give up, and then came over and asked:
“Sister Huang, can I hug the little black cat in your arms?”

Princess Yuanan asked with burning eyes. Although it was a question, the expectation in her tone made people unable to refuse.

Princess Ankang was silent for a while, hugged Li Xuan tightly, and said quietly:
“Axuan doesn’t like people hugging him when there are other cats.”

Princess Yuan’an was stunned after hearing this. She looked at Bai Xiao in her arms with a stiff expression, and then at Li Xuan in Princess Ankang’s arms. She was speechless.
