The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

Li Qingyi actually didn't understand what the fourth princess said.

But soon, she understood what the Fourth Princess meant by "I have an idea in my mind."

On this day, Li Qingyi woke up from the comfortably furnished bed as usual, washed as usual, listened to the system muttering about what infrastructure project Wang Xuan and Chen Qicong had planned with other students, ate as usual, and prepared to go to class as usual...

Then the process was interrupted on her way to the study.

News came from outside the palace that the fourth princess launched an attack early this morning.

Because Li Qingyi has always been concerned about the Fourth Princess's affairs, he had specifically instructed her to tell her when the operation started. Although Li Qingyi would most likely not be allowed to go to the scene in person as a family member, he still needed to know the news in time to feel at ease.

The reason why the news of the early morning launch was only conveyed to Li Qingyi at this time was that it was heard that it was the fourth princess's instruction before entering the delivery room. The reason was naturally that she did not want to disturb her younger sister's sleep because of her own affairs.

Li Qingyi didn't get anxious immediately after hearing this. After all, her sisters had given birth before her, so she had some experience in this regard and knew that the first baby would not be born too quickly.

Li Qingyi only asked: "It started in the early morning... How long has it been over there, Fourth Sister?"

The palace servant who delivered the message bowed his head respectfully and replied, "It has been two hours."

Li Qingyi nodded after hearing this: "Okay, I understand. Keep watching and let me know if there is anything going on."

Although she really couldn't be of much help in this regard, the melon-eating system was basically useless other than eating melons. Although the formula mall was given later, in the end it still depended on Li Qingyi and Wang Xuan to practice it themselves and be self-reliant. They didn't have the ability to create something out of nothing.

But, as I said, it is better to know the news than not to know it.

Palace attendant: "Yes."

Afterwards, Li Qingyi resumed his usual daily life, attending classes, going home from school, and having meals.

After the meal, Li Qingyi looked out the window, but saw nothing. He turned to Fang Xin and asked, "Is there any news from outside the palace?"

Fang Xin replied: "It's not that easy to get news inside or outside the palace. It's a good thing to have no news."

Li Qingyi nodded: "That's right."

When information is not so circulated, the lack of news proves that things are still under control.

The system then whispered: [Host, why don't you ask me? ]

Li Qingyi: [Well, because my acting skills are not good. ]

system:【? 】

Li Qingyi did not explain anything, but prepared for a nap at noon as usual. However, she was still worried about the fourth princess, and the lack of news did not allow her to fall asleep without any worries at this time.

So, after rolling around on the couch for a while, Li Qingyi sighed, stood up and called Fang Xin: "Aunt, please help me find out."

Fang Xin also saw why Li Qingyi was uneasy, so she didn't say much. She just responded softly and walked out.

In fact, before Li Qingyi opened her mouth, Fang Xin had already asked someone to inquire.

Although she told Li Qingyi that no news was good news, in fact, based on Fang Xin's life experience in this palace for so many years, she had a bad feeling.

Even if the news inside and outside the palace is not well-informed, as the Eleventh Princess has clearly expressed her concern for the Fourth Princess, it is not difficult to get news of whether the Fourth Princess is safe or not within an hour, even if she doesn't send someone to deliver news to the palace every half hour.

Neither the Emperor nor the Empress would say anything about this matter.

But there was no news, not a single word of news, which gave Fang Xin a bad feeling.

And this is indeed the case.

A quarter of an hour later, Fang Xin heard a palace maid's whispered report and almost couldn't control the expression on her face.

Even so, the gentle smile that always hung on her face faded, and she tilted her head slightly to ask the palace maid: "Are you serious?"

The maid seemed to be afraid that Fang Xin would think she was lying and blame and punish her for it, so she nodded quickly: "Really, when I first heard it, I couldn't believe it either, and I deliberately took a detour to take a look at Concubine An's place. It was a mess over there at the moment."

Fang Xin couldn't help it after all, frowned, then took a deep breath and said to the maid: "I know, you leave first, if the young prince asks you later, you know what to say, right?"

The maid nodded repeatedly and whispered, "I know, your Highness is still young."

After saying this, he paused again, and then continued, "I heard that the emperor has already known about this matter and asked people from the Imperial Hospital to go there. The person who reported before was all good news. I think it's a blessing from heaven. It may not be..."

Fang Xin: "Be careful with your words."

"Yes."

Fang Xin stood there for a while, her eyes fell on the copper bell hanging from the eaves. It was a bell that Li Qingyi had a sudden idea for last year. He drew the pattern himself and asked craftsmen to hang up the bell. It doesn't ring, it's just a simple decoration.

Her eyes were not focused, but only vaguely on the copper bell swaying in the wind. However, she did not stay in a daze for long. She quickly came to her senses and turned back into the room.

Li Qingyi couldn't sleep, and even lying down couldn't help but give rise to many random thoughts in his mind. So he simply sat on the edge of the couch, holding a travel book in his hand, but his eyes were not on it, and it was obvious that his mind was not here.

When Fang Xin saw this, her heart skipped a beat.

The best case scenario is that the little prince is just in a daze at the moment, and the worst case scenario is... the little prince is communicating with the system and getting information about the fourth princess' current situation from the system.

At this time, Fang Xin couldn't help but smile bitterly.

If the young prince was just an ordinary person, it would be much easier for them to hide any news from him.

But the little princess is not like that. In fact, as long as she wants, it is difficult for anything in this world to be truly hidden from her.

This is not the point. The point is that the little prince is still a child.

For most adults, children should live a carefree life instead of worrying about all kinds of messy things like adults.

Most of the time, the carefree life that adults create for children is achieved by cutting off some information channels that they think are not suitable for children to hear.

This is obviously impossible for Li Qingyi to achieve.

Fang Xin's mind was in turmoil at this moment. She had been struggling with the idea of ​​whether to conceal some of the information. When she saw Li Qingyi looking up at her, she sighed in her heart and finally concealed her thoughts.

Li Qingyi had no idea that her closest aunt was feeling mixed emotions. When she looked up, she saw that Fang Xin did not look relaxed, and she had a bad feeling.

When Fang Xin slowly told Li Qingyi the news she had just heard, her eyes slowly widened, her hands loosened, the book fell from her hands, and then slid from her knees, making a dull sound on the carpeted floor.

Li Qingyi: "Fourth sister...had a difficult birth?"
