The Great Tang Dynasty's Trans-Dimensional Conference: Little Rhinoceros Arrives

"Grandpa, this is a tonic. Drinking it might improve your appetite," Lin Fan explained with a smile.

"Oh, I see." Li Yuan nodded.

Chengyang carefully took the medicine bottle from Lin Fan's hand.

She first held it in her hand and looked at it, then looked up at Lin Fan and asked, "Brother Lin Fan, is this good? It's not too bitter, is it?"

Little Sizi stared wide-eyed at Lin Fan, eager to know the answer. However, judging from the little princess's instincts, the contents of the small bottle looked like they would taste good.

Lin Fan was taken aback.

To be honest, he didn't know what this stuff tasted like, but he figured it was for kids, so it probably wouldn't taste too bad. He smiled and said, "This should taste good. It won't be bitter, so don't worry."

Xiao Sizi's eyes lit up; she only remembered the first half of the sentence.

Upon hearing this, Chengyang no longer hesitated, bit the straw, and tentatively took a sip, then smacked his lips.

"Wow, Brother Lin Fan, this really isn't bitter at all, it's even sweet, it's delicious!"

The little princess's eyes never left Chengyang. When she heard that this stuff tasted good, her mouth started watering.

After thinking for a moment, Little Sizi quickly crawled over to Lin Fan, then raised her head, blinked her big eyes, and said in a childish voice, "Lin Fan, this is really sweet~"

"Yes, Chengyang just said it's sweet, is there a problem?"

"I want some too!"

Before Lin Fan could even agree, Chang Le reached out and lifted the little princess up: "You little glutton, you're always here! This was specially prepared for Chengyang, can you even drink it?"

"I'll drink it!" the little princess immediately retorted.

Lin Fan smiled and pinched the little princess's cheek: "Sizi, this is something you can't just drink casually. Chengyang needs to supplement it because she has a poor appetite."

The little princess was taken aback. "Wait, what does that mean?"

Then she said with a wronged look, "There aren't many rich kids here~".

"Cough cough..."

Hearing this, Lin Fan almost burst out laughing, and the others next to him covered their mouths as well.

"Hahaha...I can't take it anymore..."

Finally, Chang Le couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Si Zi, what did you just say? You didn't eat much?"

The little princess frowned; she could easily tell that Chang Le was mocking her, and immediately retorted angrily:

"That's true, I only eat very little every day! Not even as much as Lin Fan!"

Huh? How come I'm involved in this? Lin Fan is an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.

Seeing that no one believed her, and even Empress Zhangsun didn't speak up for her, Xiao Sizi turned away in a fit of anger.

"Hmph! I'm never eating again~ I'll just let myself be hungry~"

"Oh dear, Sizi, it's not that serious. You're going on a hunger strike over something so small?" Lin Fan quickly picked up the fuming baby.

"Hmph, I don't care~ I just won't be angry~"

Seeing that the little princess was upset about the small bottle in his hand, Chengyang took the half-empty bottle of oral liquid to Lin Fan's side, then raised his little hand and said:

"Brother Lin Fan, there's still some left here, give it to Si Zi."

Upon hearing this, the little princess immediately turned around and bent down to take the oral liquid that Chengyang was offering, but Lin Fan nimbly turned around and dodged it.

Then he looked at Chengyang with a serious expression and said:

"Chengyang, this was specially prepared for you by the doctor. It's a kind of medicine, and others can't just take it, understand?"

"Lin Fan, my buddy~"

Little Sizi wiggled her body and kept trying to charm Lin Fan, but unfortunately, this trick that usually worked every time failed today.

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Empress Zhangsun, Li Chengan, and Li Yuan all began to persuade the little princess.

To everyone's surprise, the little princess blurted out, "I need seven medicines too!"

That one sentence immediately ignited the atmosphere in the ward.

"Shut up, you brat!" Empress Zhangsun roared. "Don't spout nonsense!"

Empress Zhangsun knew the fate of the little princess in history, and now she only hoped that the little princess could live a healthy and peaceful life.

The little princess was also frightened by the angry shout, and the next second she hugged Lin Fan's neck and burst into tears.

Seeing the little princess so heartbroken, Empress Zhangsun felt extremely regretful. This was the first time in her life that she had yelled at the little princess like that.

Empress Zhangsun wanted to offer some advice, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Lin Fan gave Empress Zhangsun a reassuring look, then carried the little princess to the window and gently comforted her.

"Sizi, don't cry. Your mother didn't mean to yell at you just now. You know, your mother always spoils you the most, right?"

"Waaaaah~" Little Sizi didn't speak, she just kept crying.

At this moment, her little face was covered in a mixture of tears and snot, so Lin Fan could only turn around and grab a few wet wipes to wipe her face.

After crying for several minutes, perhaps out of exhaustion, Xiao Sizi gradually calmed down.

"Sizi, I promise you, even though you can't drink that medicine, I'll buy you all the food the doctor mentioned when we get home, okay?"

The little princess was still sobbing. After wiping away her tears, she asked, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. Not only that, brother can buy more for Sizi, so don't cry, and don't be angry with Mother, understand?"

"Okay, I got it~"

Lin Fan showed his sincerity, and the little princess accepted the offer without hesitation.

Carrying the little princess back to the bedside, Lin Fan quietly waved to Empress Zhangsun, who then came over and took the little princess into her arms.

The little princess turned her head and saw that it was her mother. Then, she angrily turned her head away again.

Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun felt both heartache and helplessness.

"Sizi, you promised you wouldn't be angry," Lin Fan reminded him from the side.

Upon hearing the reminder, the little princess reluctantly turned her head, but still kept her head down, not wanting to look at Empress Zhangsun.

Chang Le and Li Chengan, who were standing to the left and right, came to the two of them and gently comforted the little princess.

Seeing this, Chengyang walked over and gently pulled Lin Fan's hand.

Lin Fan smiled and squatted down, asking, "Chengyang, what's wrong?"

"Brother Lin Fan, is it all because of me that Si Zi is crying?"

Chengyang's thinking was actually very simple: the little princess wanted to drink something that she could drink, but she couldn't, and she believed that this was the trigger for the incident.

Lin Fan gently patted Chengyang's head, then softly comforted him:

"Chengyang, don't overthink it. This isn't your fault at all. Look around, have we ever stopped Sizi from eating anything delicious before?"

"That's precisely why we're doing this—because we absolutely can't let her drink it this time, understand?"

Seeing how serious Lin Fan was, Cheng Yang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
