Once Yi Chongyuan died, the sixth prince Li Yi lost his mother and concubine. .
But he is still young, and he cannot live without elders to help him take care of him.
So the emperor decreed that the sixth prince should be sent to Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu would be responsible for raising him from now on.
Concubine Shu is only in her early twenties this year. She is the daughter of the left minister of the dynasty. She not only has a prominent family background, but also has a beautiful appearance and an arrogant and uninhibited temperament. She is very popular with the emperor.
She was canonized as a concubine as soon as she entered the palace, and was promoted to concubine Shu the following year.
This glamorous and beautiful resume can be said to be proud of the entire harem, even the queen has to give her three points.
If there is anything unsatisfactory about her, it is the problem of her children.
She had been pregnant twice, but both were lost due to accidents.
She never got pregnant again after that.
Although the imperial physician's order didn't say it clearly, she knew very well in her heart that she was afraid that it would be difficult for her to get pregnant again in this life.
It was precisely because of this that the emperor pitied her even more, so he deliberately recorded the sixth prince under her name.
He held Concubine Shu's hand and said softly.
"Haven't you always wanted a baby
From now on, Yi'er will be your child, and you will be his mother and concubine.
You raise him well, and when he grows up, he will definitely respect you well. "
Concubine Shu didn't really want to accept the sixth prince.
She really wanted a child, but what she wanted was her own child, not helping others raise children.
However, the emperor spoke well.
Concubine Shu couldn't refuse, she could only smile and thank her.
The sixth prince, Li Yi, was soon sent to Concubine Shu's residence.
Concubine Shu had asked people to tidy up the room long ago, and everything that should be prepared was properly prepared.
She treated Li Yi with the most gentle attitude, hoping to gain his favor.
However, Li Yi didn't appreciate it at all.
He has been crying since he entered the door, crying heartbreakingly.
No matter how others comfort you, it is useless.
Concubine Shu was so pained by his crying that she couldn't take it anymore, so she had to let the nanny take him down.
That night, it started to rain again.
The rain slapped on the doors and windows, making a pattering sound.
The rain continued until the third day, and there was still no sign of stopping.
Hua Manman lay on the desk, looking at the rainy scene outside the window, couldn't help yawning.
"In this weather, you should lie in bed and sleep."
As soon as her words fell to the ground, a ruler stretched out from the side and knocked on the table in front of her, making a snap.
Li Ji: "Sit up straight and continue practicing your calligraphy."
Hua Manman was so frightened that she lost all sleepiness, so she immediately sat up and continued to practice calligraphy bitterly.
After this period of practice, her handwriting is much better than before.
However, Mr. Li's requirements are too strict, and he is still very dissatisfied with her current writing level, so he has to urge her to practice calligraphy every day.
Jin Shu walked in and blessed the body respectfully.
"My lord, Eunuch Wu Wang is here, and he said he has something to ask for your help."
Li Ji said to Hua Manman: "You continue to practice calligraphy, and I will come back as soon as I go."
Hua Manman responded obediently: "Yeah!"
Jin Shu pushed King Zhao out of the study.
As soon as they left, Hua Manman immediately threw away the brush in his hand, and he jumped up like a wild horse, and rushed out of the study excitedly.
She went straight to the kitchenette.
She stayed up this morning, so she got up a little late.
When she finished washing and went to have breakfast, she found that King Zhao had almost eaten.
As a punishment for her staying in bed, King Zhao deliberately had all the breakfast taken away, leaving her only a bowl of white rice porridge.
How can such a bowl of rice porridge be enough
She felt hungry soon, but King Zhao was staring at her again, so she dared not say anything, so she could only practice calligraphy honestly.
At this moment, King Zhao finally left.
She didn't have to bear it anymore, and quickly ran to the small kitchen, looking for food everywhere.
Finally she found two big meat buns from the steamer.
She walked back while eating.
She had to go back to the study before King Zhao.
Unexpectedly, just as she walked out of the small kitchen, she saw a familiar thin figure.
In the corner of the courtyard, stood a thin boy, wearing a blue brocade robe, with his back pressed against the wall, his head turned around, and he kept looking around.
Because of the heavy rain, he was soaked all over, and the rain dripped down his cheeks, looking rather embarrassed.
Hua Manman has met him before, he is the sixth prince Li Yi.
Why is he here
Hua Manman looked around, but saw no one else.
She hesitated for a while, and finally greeted the other party.
"His Royal Highness Sixth Prince!"
Li Yi was taken aback.
He subconsciously wanted to run, but due to his haste and the slippery road in rainy weather, he accidentally slipped and fell heavily on the ground.
Seeing this, Hua Manman hurriedly put the meat bun into her arms, ran over in the rain, and helped Li Yi up.
Li Yi sprained his foot, and now he couldn't run even if he wanted to, so he could only let her help him into the small kitchen.
Hua Manman asked him to sit near the stove.
She lit the firewood in the stove.
The flames burned, emitting heat continuously.
Li Yi felt this warmth, and his body, which was trembling slightly due to the cold, finally felt a little more comfortable.
Hua Manman looked him up and down.
Li Yi's appearance is more like Yi Chongyuan, giving people a gentle and harmless feeling.
His eyes were red and swollen as if he had just cried.
Because of the fall just now, his clothes were covered with mud and looked dirty.
At this time, he didn't look like a prince at all, more like a beggar.
Li Yi noticed her gaze.
He pursed his lips, lowered his head, and stared at his muddy toe, as if he could see a flower from the toe.
Hua Manman asked, "Why is Your Highness here? What about the people serving you? Why didn't they follow you?"
Li Yi still lowered his head, not saying a word.
He made it clear that he refused to communicate.
Hua Manman had no choice but to temporarily give up communicating and continue eating her meat buns.
Li Yi salivated involuntarily when he smelled the aroma of meat buns.
He only ate some pastries yesterday, and he didn't eat anything today, and he was already starving.
The aroma of the meat buns was too tempting for him.
But he didn't want to open his mouth, so he could only endure with all his might.
But the next moment.
There was a loud grunt in his stomach.
Even the sound of rain outside could not cover up the grunt.
Hua Manman eats meat buns for a while.
She looked at Li Yi.
The kid buried his head even lower, as if he was going to stuff his head into his stomach.
Like a little ostrich.
Hua Manman endured the pain, and handed over the other untouched meat bun.
"Eat?"
Li Yi glanced at the savory meat buns, and the saliva in his mouth became more drooling.
He swallowed involuntarily, but said in his mouth.
"I don't eat buns."
Hua Manman asked with a good temper: "Then what do you want to eat?"
Li Yi whispered authentically: "Nuomi Duanzi, I want to eat Nuomi Duanzi."
