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

Fang Xuanling sensed that Li Shimin's words had a hidden meaning, but Li Shimin didn't want to say more, and they didn't dare to ask any further questions.

Thinking of this, he cupped his hands again and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, we understand."

Changsun Wuji also stood up. "I understand the intentions of these powerful families very well. With me here, they can't cause any major trouble."

As the head of the Guanlong Group, there were some things that Li Shimin couldn't do openly, but that didn't mean he couldn't do them.

Wei Zheng nodded without saying anything more, but he secretly made up his mind.

"Such people who benefit the country and its people should be well protected. I want to see if any fools dare to mess with me."

.........

At this moment, Lin Fan was unaware that several powerful figures in the hall were secretly plotting for him.

With Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong overseeing the roasting of the lamb, he didn't need to help. The ingredients for the barbecue were also being prepared by Mingyue and several people from the Imperial Kitchen, so he didn't need to lift a finger.

So what was he doing? Of course, he was playing games with the little princess.

Perhaps because the wait had been too long, Xiao Sizi was getting bored, so she ran into the palace to get a red rope from Empress Zhangsun.

"Lin Fan, come play cat's cradle with me!"

Lin Fan stared blankly at the rope in the little princess's hand. When he was a child, he often caught fish and shrimp, climbed trees and went up mountains, but he had never played this kind of game for girls.

No, it's not that this is a game for girls, but rather that he's seen other friends play it, but he himself isn't very good at it.

The little princess didn't care about anything else. She put the flower rope around her wrist and then skillfully began to flip the flowers.

There weren't many fun toys in the palace before, and many of the little girls got tired of them. In the end, Mingyue started playing this game with her.

"Lin Fan, it's your turn!"

Little Sizi stretched out her hand, gesturing for Lin Fan to play cat's cradle.

Lin Fan tried to recall how to play cat's cradle, and although he didn't remember it very clearly, it was definitely not acceptable for him to say that he didn't know how.

Lin Fan first observed the flower rope in the little princess's hand and thought about how to flip it.

"Lin Fan, hurry up! My hands are tired from holding it up!"

The little princess shook her short arms in dissatisfaction.

Lin Fan felt that he had observed well and figured out how to flip it before raising his hand to start.

But as soon as he touched the rope, Little Sizi started yelling.

"Lin Fan, no, that's not how it's done. Your hand should go in from top to bottom..."

The little princess went on and on, demonstrating to Lin Fan how to flip the rope with her chin.

Lin Fan had already figured out how to translate it, but after the little princess said that, his mind instantly became a mess.

He tried to do it the way the little princess had instructed, but after flipping through half of it, the little princess started complaining again.

"No, Lin Fan, you're so dense. This is from top to bottom, below, oh, right~"

Chengyang couldn't help but laugh as he watched the little princess chattering away, teaching the clumsy Lin Fan.

With the little princess's guidance, Lin Fan finally flipped the flower rope over.

This time, it's the little princess's turn again.

The little princess looked at the rope and wanted to make a pretty one.

She hooked the two ends of the rope with her little finger, pinched the rope between her thumb and forefinger, and flipped it over. The rope immediately changed its shape, and at the same time, it came back into her hand.

Looking at the little princess's smug smile, Lin Fan began to think about his next move.

"Lin Fan, you're in trouble~"

Lin Fan lowered his head and began to observe how to untie the new rope. The rope seemed very complicated, and he looked at it for a long time but had no idea where to start.

Upon seeing this, Chengyang immediately came to the little princess's side.

"Wow, Sizi actually found such an amazing rope trick! Can I try it out?"

Chengyang's actions were also a way of indirectly helping Lin Fan out of a predicament.

"Okay~" The little princess happily raised her hand in front of Chengyang.

Chengyang raised his hand and tapped his chin with his fingers. "This is a bit too difficult. I need to think about it. Sizi, you'll have to wait patiently."

"Okay~" The little princess held her hands up to her chest and looked at Chengyang with a smile.

Chengyang pretended to study it for a while before reaching out to untie the flower rope.

"Wow, Fifth Sister is amazing!"

The little princess's eyes widened instantly as she watched Chengyang untie the flower rope in her hand.

"Hehe, Sizi, it's your turn now."

The little princess pouted and began to think. Soon, she came up with a solution.

She stretched out her little hand with a smug look on her face and started picking.

Unexpectedly, she lost her grip, her fingers slipped, and the rope slipped right out of her hand.

"Oops, I made a mistake~"

"Haha, it's alright, Sizi, let's start over."

Seeing the little princess pouting, Chengyang immediately began to tidy up the ropes, preparing to start over.

"Chengyang, how about I give it a try?" Lin Fan, who had been watching for a while, reached out his hand.

"OK."

Next, Lin Fan quickly flipped the flower rope into his hand.

"Alright, Sizi, it's your turn now."

The little princess nodded vigorously, looked at the rope in Lin Fan's hand, and quickly began to flip it.

While Lin Fan observed carefully, and with Cheng Yang, his outside helper, constantly reminding him, he quickly figured out the trick to the game.

In no time, the two of them had come up with a whole host of different moves.

"Wow, Lin Fan is getting more and more amazing!" The little princess clapped her hands and praised Lin Fan with sparkling eyes.

Lin Fan was about to laugh, but then he remembered that he was able to fight the little princess to a draw because he had a "teacher" teaching him. So he immediately suppressed his laughter.

"Ahem, it's nothing special. You're really amazing, Sizi."

Chengyang, who was standing to the side, secretly covered his mouth and laughed.

And just like that, without realizing it, an hour quickly passed.

"Lin Fan, when can we have some meat? I'm so hungry~"

The little princess was really getting impatient.

After all, what other thoughts could a child possibly have?

All she knew was that her tummy was hungry, and when she was hungry, she should eat meat.

"Haha, don't worry, Sizi, let your brother take a look first." Lin Fan patted the little princess's head to comfort her.

"Okay~" The little princess's mouth was practically watering as she smelled the aroma of the roasted whole lamb.

Lin Fan first turned on the oven to check it, and Cheng Yaojin next to him also stuck his head over.

"How is it? Is it ready?"

Lin Fan shook his head. "No, I guess I'll have to wait a while." He then glanced at the barbecue grill beside him.

"Mingyue, how are the preparations going on your end?"

Mingyue put down the iron skewer in her hand and turned her head. "Young master, everything is almost ready. We can begin at any time."

"Okay, let's start baking then. By the time this is done, the lamb in the oven will be ready too."

"OK."

Mingyue directed a young eunuch to spread charcoal on the grill, and then lit the fire to start grilling.
