The two of them traveled through the Tang Dynasty to open a supermarket, and the little Sizi was sup

Chapter 170 A Different Empress Zhangsun!

"You little rascal, you're not modest at all." Li Lizhi walked over and rubbed the little princess's face.

The little princess pushed Li Lizhi's hand away, "Sister, you're so annoying~"

The little princess shouted at the top of her lungs, "I'm awesome!"

"Alright, alright, let's eat!" Li Lizhi shook her head.

"Hehe~ Qifanfan~"

Princess Chengyang went to the other side and got two bibs, which she then tied on.

Now both little princesses wear bibs before eating.

"Brother, is everything ready?" Princess Yuzhang handed chopsticks to Xiao Ran.

"Everything is ready. After we finish eating, we can go to the warehouse, deliver the fruit and ice cream there, pick up His Highness, and then we'll come back and go straight to the hospital," Xiao Ran said.

"okay!"

Princess Li Lizhi and Xiao Ran were talking about the supermarket. The two little princesses ate very quietly.

Not very happy about other things, just quietly eating rice.

After finishing her meal, Princess Yuzhang returned to her room and took the clothes she had prepared for Empress Zhangsun.

Li Lizhi also helped the two little princesses change into Tang Dynasty dresses.

"Little Nangjun~ We're here~" The little princess tugged at Xiao Ran.

"Alright, let's go!" Xiao Ran led the princesses out of the room.

Xu Wenya and Liu Ziyue, who were in the supermarket, also saw this and were surprised that the four sisters were here with Xiao Ran so early.

Xu Wenya and Liu Ziyue didn't think much of it and greeted the princesses with smiles.

Princess Yuzhang was intelligent, beautiful, and had a pleasant voice.

After he started using his phone, he even treated Xu Wenya and the others to milk tea and snacks.

Other people like her very much.

In terms of interpersonal skills, Princess Yuzhang was clearly better than Li Lizhi.

The two little princesses also greeted the group warmly; all the princesses were very likable.

It wasn't actually that hot in the morning, so Xiao Ran drove the group directly to the warehouse.

"The boss hasn't been paying much attention lately!" Liu Ziyue said with a smile.

"The boss gave me a raise, that's good, that's great." Xu Wenya smiled.

"That's true."

When they arrived at the warehouse, Xiao Ran stopped the car.

Open the warehouse door and go inside.

While we were at it, we locked the warehouse door from the inside.

The conveyor belt is turned on; someone will come and move the things in a bit.

Empress Zhangsun had already made arrangements for the palace maids and eunuchs, so Xiao Ran didn't need to worry about it.

Xiao Ran and the little princess led the people to the warehouse and told the others what to move.

The group went to the front hall, while the unloading of goods took place in a side hall of the Lizheng Hall.

I feel more at ease here.

"Mother~" The little princess skipped and hopped towards Empress Zhangsun.

Princess Yuzhang brought clothes for Empress Zhangsun to change into.

"Your Majesty, is he not here?" Xiao Ran was a little surprised not to see Li Shimin.

Empress Zhangsun smiled and said, "I have some business to attend to at the Taiji Hall."

Xiao Ran and the others need to wait a moment while the others move their things over.

"Mother, why don't you try this dress on and see if it fits?" Princess Yuzhang said.

"Alright!" Empress Zhangsun and Princess Yuzhang went to the inner palace, while Xiao Ran, Li Lizhi, and the others waited outside. Soon, Princess Yuzhang helped Empress Zhangsun out, and Xiao Ran looked at Empress Zhangsun in surprise.

Xiao Ran suddenly felt as if a modern mirror image of "Lady with a Fan" was appearing before her eyes. The sheer texture of the moon-white top and the dark blue wide-leg pants swayed lightly with her steps, making her look even more dashing than when she wore a high-waisted ruqun in her memory.

The most exquisite thing was that lotus-colored cardigan, which, when draped over her arm, resembled a water lily about to bloom. The pearl buttons reflected the morning light, just like the dewdrops on the white hibiscus she often wore in her hair.

Compared to traditional Tang Dynasty clothing, this outfit is less cumbersome and more light, yet it is in no way less dignified.

The three-quarter bell sleeves draped naturally, revealing an inch more wrist than usual, but the sheer fabric added a touch of demureness, like a woman holding a pipa (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument).

Xiao Ran suddenly realized that Princess Yuzhang's wisdom in choosing clothes lay in this: instead of using modern clothing to subvert tradition, she used more ergonomic tailoring and more climate-adaptable fabrics to allow Empress Zhangsun to maintain her status while truly "wearing" the comfort and elegance of summer.

Just like her wisdom in managing the harem, her true skill is revealed in the details and her elegance is shown in the intangible.

Empress Zhangsun in this way is like a virtuous empress who came from the Zhenguan era, and also like an elegant lady who can stroll leisurely in the modern city. The beauty of these two times and spaces has achieved a wonderful reconciliation in this light dress.

“Mother, you look good dressed like this too.” Li Lizhi got up and walked over.

Empress Zhangsun smiled, clearly pleased with the outcome.

"Brother, what do you think?" Princess Yuzhang asked Xiao Ran.

"Your Highness, you're a walking clothes rack; you look good in anything," Xiao Ran quickly said.

"It looks great!" the little princess agreed.

Li Lizhi took out her phone and said, "Mother, let me take a picture of you."

"Alright!" Empress Zhangsun readily agreed.

"There's a nest too!" The little princess ran over to join in the fun.

So I took a few more pictures.

"Mother, do you feel comfortable wearing this?" Li Lizhi pulled Empress Zhangsun down to sit.

"It's different from my previous clothes, and it feels different too, but it's quite nice." Empress Zhangsun looked at her clothes and was quite satisfied.

Hongxiu hurried over and said, "Your Highness, everything is ready."

"Okay, young master, let's go!" Li Lizhi stood up.

"it is good!"

Seeing Xiao Ran get up, the two little princesses naturally couldn't be left behind.

All the goods were loaded onto the carriages, and Li Lizhi's carriage was ready well in advance.

Tianxiang, who was standing nearby, handed the imperial edict that Li Shimin had prepared long ago to Li Lizhi.

This will make it easier for me to enter and exit the palace gates later.

Li Lizhi accepted the imperial edict and handed it to Princess Yuzhang.

“Mother, let’s deliver the things first and come back later,” Li Lizhi said.

Empress Zhangsun nodded slightly, "Alright, go!"

Empress Zhangsun walked to the entrance of Lizheng Hall and watched Xiao Ran and the others get into their carriages and leave.

The convoy slowly approached the palace gate. Although they recognized it as Li Lizhi's carriage, there were many other carriages behind it, so the imperial guards did not allow it to pass directly.

Only after seeing the imperial edict from Princess Yuzhang did they respectfully bow and step aside.

The sun at three-quarters past noon scorched the bluestone slabs of the East Market, and the cicadas' chirping wove a dense net between the eaves, but it couldn't drown out the bustling noise in front of the "Datang Supermarket".

Beneath the three-zhang-high vermilion archway, a winding procession stretched from the shop entrance to Zhuque Street. There were noblewomen wearing veils leading Persian hunting dogs, Chang'an citizens carrying shoulder poles, and foreign merchants wearing white hats pushing oxcarts loaded with silver coins. Many of them were whispering and chatting about the things they bought from the supermarket.

Upon seeing Li Lizhi's carriage appear, someone shouted, "It's Her Highness the Princess's carriage! Make way!"

People quickly made way for each other, and many became excited.

The arrival of Li Lizhi's carriage means the supermarket will soon open for business.

A long convoy followed behind Li Lizhi's carriage, laden with goods.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu exchanged a glance in the crowd and squeezed forward.
