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

Chapter 262 Conferring Princess Xiao Ruoying with a Noble Title!
Li Shimin served himself several plates of beef, mainly because the plates were small.

Empress Zhangsun chose mostly vegetarian dishes.

The three little princesses and Li Zhi also began to choose their favorite dishes.

As a little foodie, the little princess's favorite food is meat. Besides beef, she also took lamb and pork belly.

"Sizi, this lettuce is also good. We can't just eat meat." Li Lizhi picked up a lettuce and handed it to the little princess.

"Mmm-hmm~" The little princess took the lettuce.

Feeling that was enough, the little princess didn't take any more and returned to her seat.

The pot boiled, and the little princess started adding the ingredients.

I picked up the beef and put it in, stirring my own dipping sauce as it cooked.

Except for Xiao Ran and Xiao Ruoying, everyone else had sesame paste.

Xiao Ran and his sister are from the southwest, and they prefer dipping sauces made with small red chilies.

At the table next to Xiao Ran and the little princess were the little princess of Chengyang and Xiao Ruoying, and on the other side were Li Lizhi and the little princess of Gaoyang.

"Father, this meat is tender, so it shouldn't be cooked for too long, or it won't taste good." Princess Yuzhang said as she served the dishes to Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun.

"Alright, I understand. Sixth Sister, you go and eat too!" Li Shimin said with a smile, "I'll also have a taste. You can do it yourself."

“Alright!” Princess Yuzhang got up and left.

Li Ke and Li Tai sat at the same table. Li Tai had a big appetite and took a lot, putting it all in at once.

Li Chengqian and Li Zhi were standing nearby. Li Chengqian wanted to help put the food in the pot, but Li Zhi quickly said, "Brother, I can do it myself."

"it is good!"

The little princess cooked the beef and served it to Xiao Ran, saying, "Little Nangjun, first sir~"

Xiao Ran had been watching without making a move, wanting to see the little princess do it herself.

I find it very interesting.

"Okay!" Xiao Ran didn't refuse, dipped it in and blew on it, "Not bad, just right."

"Hehe~ Aren't I amazing~" The little princess laughed happily.

"Yes, our Sizi is amazing."

"Your Majesty, you must say, this feels really good." Li Shimin also ate with relish. "I like this way of eating, and the taste is also quite good."

"It's really interesting." Empress Zhangsun picked up some potatoes.

"This beef isn't fatty or greasy. Try it. Don't just eat vegetables; you've lost weight." Li Shimin said, putting meat on Empress Zhangsun's plate as he ate.

Xiao Ruoying looked at them, then picked up a plate of shrimp paste. "Your Majesty, Auntie's is pretty good too!"

"Alright, I'll try it in a bit."

“Grandpa, there’s plenty of seafood too, but you didn’t take any,” Princess Yuzhang reminded him.

"No rush, finish eating these and I'll get the rest later."

Xiao Ruoying picked up her phone, opened the photo album, and squatted down in front of Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun. "Your Majesty, Auntie, let's take a picture."

Empress Zhangsun put down her chopsticks and cooperated with Xiao Ruoying.

Li Shimin moved closer to Empress Zhangsun. The couple had always had a good relationship, which Xiao Ran and Xiao Ruoying both envied.

Xiao Ruoying, in particular, became a fan of the emperor and empress after researching Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun.

After taking a picture of Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun, Xiao Ruoying took a picture of the others as well.

The three little princesses cooperated well and made a "V" sign.

Xiao Ruoying felt a little awkward when taking photos with Li Chengqian and Li Zhi.

Li Chengqian knew that Xiao Ruoying had refused, but he didn't say anything.

Xiao Ruoying just needs to avoid marrying any other princes of the Tang Dynasty.

The three little princesses don't actually eat much, but they enjoy the feeling of getting things.

"Sizi, I'm full. Take as much as you want, but don't take any of mine." Xiao Ran couldn't eat anymore.

The little princess looked at the beef in her hand, "Mmm, mmm~ Give it to Grandpa~" The princesses had almost finished eating, only Li Shimin and a few princes were still eating.

The palace maids also brought over the fruit buffet that had been prepared earlier.

It was also a shelf, filled with lots of fruit.

"Xiao Ran! If you opened a restaurant like this in Chang'an, it would probably be just as profitable as a supermarket! The food is so good, there would definitely be people who would want to eat there." Li Shimin put down his chopsticks.

"Your Majesty, making money is certain, but it's far less profitable than a supermarket. You can just grab something from a supermarket and go, but you can't finish a meal in a short time. Besides, these things are hard to come by in the Tang Dynasty, so it's not worth it. Opening a restaurant is not as good as opening a supermarket!"

Xiao Ran knew all too well that the restaurant business was truly tiring, troublesome, and didn't earn much.

"Little Nangjun~ Open a milk tea shop~" the little princess said with a smile.

“That’s a good idea!” Xiao Ran picked up the little princess. “We’ll open a milk tea shop in the East Market another day.”

"Brother, I want one too!" Princess Chengyang said quickly.

"Me too, me too!" Princess Gaoyang insisted, not wanting to be left behind.

"Okay, we have them all."

"It's really open!" Princess Yuzhang looked at Xiao Ran.

"A bubble tea shop is actually a good idea. Sizi Ermei and Shiqi like it, so opening one is a good option."

"Brother, just spoil your second sister, Seventeen!" Princess Yuzhang smiled.

"Hehe~" The little princess laughed too.

After they had almost finished eating, Li Shimin picked up a watermelon and said, "That's good. There's fruit after the meal."

"From now on, we can arrange more of these. They are more interesting than the imperial cuisine served at the Imperial Kitchen, and they taste quite good too," Li Shimin said.

"Grandpa, this was prepared by Sister Ruoying," Princess Yuzhang said with a smile.

Li Shimin nodded, "Yingniang has been busy these past few days, doing a lot for the Tang Dynasty."

"Your region has far more treasures than the Tang Dynasty, and Yingniang doesn't even want what I offer. How about this? I'll grant you a noble title."

Li Shimin pondered for a moment, "I have heard that 'virtue brings official rank, and merit brings reward.' So I hereby bestow upon you the title of 'Princess Anhui,' which means 'to bring peace and prosperity to the country and the people.'"

Xiao Ruoying was overjoyed, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin smiled and nodded, "The fiefdom is eight hundred households, and the actual fiefdom is the same as that of Li Zhi. The salary, carriage, and palace maids are all in accordance with the standards for a legitimate daughter."

According to Li Shimin's status as the legitimate daughter, he showed sufficient sincerity.

"Your Majesty," Xiao Ran pointed to himself, "I want one too!"

"What? You want a princess title too?" Li Shimin teased Xiao Ran deliberately.

"Hahaha!" Xiao Ruoying and Princess Yuzhang laughed the most.

The others laughed too.

It's not that Li Shimin is stingy and wants to give Xiao Ran a big reward, but the time isn't right yet.

Princesses are different from other noble titles.

The title bestowed upon Xiao Ran is hereditary and can last as long as the nation exists.

"Hmph~ Grandpa's annoying~" the little princess spoke up for Xiao Ran, "I'm not playing with Grandpa anymore~"

"Alright, alright, it was Grandpa's fault!"

"It's alright, Sizi. Next time you do business, try to swindle more money from His Majesty." Xiao Ran laughed as well.

"You little brat!"

Li Shimin had no choice; the price of these things was entirely up to Xiao Ran.

There's nothing we can do; they have a monopoly.

"In the future, Yingniang will also have a palace in Fengyang Pavilion. If she likes, she can come and stay for a while," Empress Zhangsun said with a smile.

"Okay, Auntie, I'll remember." Since Li Lizhi and the other princesses aren't here, Xiao Ruoying definitely won't be coming to stay.

All the princesses are at the villa, so there's no point in Xiao Ruoying coming over.
