Chapter 168 Little Rhinoceros's Favoritism!
"Come on, let's go try the food that Si Zi made." Li Shimin picked up the little princess.

"Hehe~ Yeah yeah~"

Empress Zhangsun gave a few instructions, and the group walked to the screen. The little princess held Li Shimin's hand with one hand and Empress Zhangsun's hand with the other.

Xiao Ran could only hold onto Li Lizhi's arm.

It was a skirt before, and there was clothing in between.

Now that Li Lizhi is also wearing short sleeves, she feels a little awkward.

During the Zhenguan era, without the constraints of Neo-Confucianism, Princess Li Lizhi of Yuzhang could accept modern clothing.

Both sisters were wearing short sleeves.

Several people emerged from Xiao Ran's bedroom one after another.

"Ah, it's really cool here!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Tie the duck~"

Upon hearing the noise, Princess Yuzhang and Princess Chengyang also came out of the kitchen.

Seeing Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun was a bit of a surprise.

"Grandpa, Mom!"

Li Shimin said with a smile, "Sixth Sister, your father almost doesn't recognize you anymore."

The current Princess Yuzhang has a different hairstyle and clothing, and she even wears a floral apron. It's hard to imagine that this is a princess of the Tang Dynasty.

“Grandpa, the clothes here are quite comfortable. You should try them on when you have the chance,” Princess Yuzhang said.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, please have a seat." Xiao Ran gestured to the sofa.

Compared to the Lizheng Palace, Xiao Ran's house was indeed small, ridiculously small.

"Okay, okay, okay," Li Shimin said, glancing at the sofa, which he had seen in a photo before.

Princess Chengyang pulled Li Shimin along, saying, "Grandpa, sit here, it's soft."

"Tie the duck~"

Li Shimin pulled Empress Zhangsun to sit down, and she was not used to this sitting posture when she got up.

But it felt quite comfortable.

"Hey, this feels good." Li Shimin took a look.

Empress Zhangsun nodded in agreement.

Upon seeing Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun arrive, Princess Yuzhang went to the kitchen and added two more bowls and chopsticks.

After everyone took their seats, the two little princesses, as usual, sat next to Xiao Ran.

Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun were on the sofa.

Xiao Ran brought over some baijiu (Chinese liquor). "Your Majesty, would you like some?"

"That works too!" Li Shimin recognized it; it was Mao Zi.

Xiao Ran poured himself a small half-cup.

The juice that the princesses were drinking.

"Mother, try this. This was made by Sixth Sister." Li Lizhi served food to Empress Zhangsun.

"Yes, good!" Empress Zhangsun nodded. "Not bad, not bad, Sixth Sister's skills are excellent."

Xiao Ran and Li Shimin clinked their wine glasses together, and the little princess, wanting to join in the fun, quickly raised her own little cup, "Grandpa~ Little Princess~ Cheers~"

"Good, good, good!" Li Shimin readily agreed and bumped hands with the little princess.

"Good wine!" Li Shimin took a small sip.

Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun also felt that this was quite good, and their relationship became more harmonious.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang are now very good at cooking; they can teach the imperial chefs of the Imperial Kitchen in the future.

The food in the Tang Dynasty gradually became similar to that in Xiao Ran's place.

"The temperature here is just right, neither too hot nor too cold." Li Shimin looked around; Xiao Ran's house actually had very few things.

"The air conditioner temperature can be adjusted, and it's very hot outside now," Xiao Ran said as he served food to the two little princesses.

"This is wonderful. It's even more comfortable than being the emperor myself," Li Shimin said with a smile.

People in this era had much better living and eating conditions than those in the Tang Dynasty.

After the meal, Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang cleaned up the dishes, and the two little princesses followed suit.

I went along to help.

Empress Zhangsun nodded in satisfaction; this was what she had hoped for. Xiao Ran turned on the television, and Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun were immediately captivated.

This is quite different from the previous projectors.

Hearing the TV, the two little princesses ran out of the kitchen, shouting, "Little Nangjun, look at Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf!"

"Okay!" Xiao Ran changed the cartoon for the two little princesses.

She got up and made a cup of tea for Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun.

It was indeed very comfortable here. Li Shimin leaned back on the sofa, drinking tea, feeling quite content.

“No wonder Sizi Erniang likes this place,” Li Shimin said with a smile.

The two little princesses were not paying attention to what Li Shimin was saying; they were staring intently at the television.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang also came out of the kitchen and sat down next to Empress Zhangsun.

"Mother, should we go to the hospital for a check-up?" Princess Yuzhang asked, holding Empress Zhangsun's hand.

"Yes, go in the next couple of days!" Empress Zhangsun said.

"If Your Highness is free, how about tomorrow?" Xiao Ran suggested.

"Hmm, that's fine too." Empress Zhangsun also had some free time.

“Brother, Mother doesn’t have that.” Princess Yuzhang gestured, “An ID card! I saw they need ID cards to go to the hospital, will that be okay?”

“You do need an ID card to register, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be your own. A family member’s or another relative’s ID card will do,” Xiao Ran said. “We don’t have medical insurance reimbursement, so you can use my ID card to register. There’s no problem.”

Empress Zhangsun, wife of Emperor Taizong of Tang, came from a wealthy and powerful family and did not need reimbursement.

Not bad money!
"I see! I understand." Princess Yuzhang nodded.

"Girl, are you getting used to the hospital?" Empress Zhangsun asked Princess Yuzhang.

“I’m used to it, Mother. I find it very interesting.” Princess Yuzhang was very excited, as she was experiencing things she had never heard of before.

I learn every day, and I learn a lot of things.

Princess Yuzhang has no access to medical matters; her knowledge is mostly limited to common sense.

I saw how other nurses worked.

It wasn't easy, but Princess Yuzhang was interested and didn't feel tired.

"It's not easy working at the hospital, it's very tiring. If you're tired, take a rest," Xiao Ran said.

This is a princess of noble birth, someone of high status; she certainly hadn't experienced this level of work before.

“Brother, it’s alright, I feel fine, I don’t feel tired,” Princess Yuzhang said.

"That's OK!"

Li Shimin picked up the little princess and said, "Sizi, let Grandpa hug you."

Li Shimin had been drinking and smelled strongly of alcohol.

The little princess frowned, "Grandpa smells bad~"

The little princess climbed down from Li Shimin's arms and snuggled into Xiao Ran's embrace.

“You little rascal, your young master has been drinking too,” Li Shimin said quickly.

"No, there isn't one~" the little princess denied.

"Hahaha!" Xiao Ran laughed too; this was the feeling of being favored.

Li Shimin shook his head, looking rather helpless.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang led Empress Zhangsun to her room.

Let Empress Zhangsun see where Princess Yuzhang lives.

Xiao Ran's place is small, but compared to the palace, it definitely feels more like home, warmer, and more humane.

It's just a pity that it's too small.

Given the current situation, it's impossible for Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun to stay overnight.

Xiao Ran is also contacting real estate agents, hoping to buy a villa nearby.

Apartment buildings are still a bit lacking; with a large family, buying a villa would be better. We're not short of money now.

I definitely want to buy something better; I don't need to worry about the money.

“Mother, it’s too hot over there. You should come and stay here to recuperate!” Princess Yuzhang suggested.
