After traveling through time, I became a princess in ancient times

The raindrops hit the bluestone floor of the palace, splashing tiny ripples.

Xia Yurou sat in the pavilion, playing with the mobile phone that was isolated from the modern world. From time to time, she looked at the empty gate of the palace. The recruitment notice posted at the door had become a little blurred due to the rain.

She sighed softly and threw the melon seed shells into the stone bowl beside her, making a crisp sound.

Is the Chen Palace really going to fade into obscurity?

At this time, Ren Chenxi came to the pavilion in the back garden and saw Xia Yurou sitting alone in the pavilion fiddling with a strange object he had never seen before.

He walked closer and asked softly, "Why is your little follower not here?"

"I asked Xiaoxue to go to the market to collect ingredients. I plan to open a hot pot restaurant."

"Hot pot restaurant?"

A puzzled look appeared on Ren Chenxi's face: "What is that? Why have I never heard of it?"

Xia Yurou put down her phone, stood up and walked to Ren Chenxi, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "People are sitting around the stove, dipping all kinds of delicious ingredients. You can imagine, meat slices, seafood, vegetables rolling in the steaming pot, paired with special sauces, that taste..."

Before she finished speaking, Ren Chenxi held her hand and said worriedly, "Rou'er, I don't want you to worry about these trivial matters."

Xia Yurou gently patted the back of Ren Chenxi's hand and said, "Prince, I know you feel sorry for me. But you also know the current situation of the palace. Without money, we can't maintain daily expenses, let alone recruit talents to revitalize the Chen Palace. I want to earn some extra income for the palace by opening a hot pot restaurant, so that we can better face future challenges in the days to come."

"Rou'er, I understand your intentions. I will work harder to handle government affairs and strive to make a difference in the court."

During the conversation, his eyes fell on the glowing object again.

Seeing the prince's confusion, Xia Yurou picked up the phone on the table and explained to him: "This is our communication tool, called a mobile phone."

Ren Chenxi gently stroked the smooth body of the mobile phone. He had never seen an object so small yet containing such huge power.

Xia Yurou pressed the power button and the screen lit up, illuminating her face and the world in Ren Chenxi's eyes.

"Look, it can display the time, take photos, record videos, listen to music, and play games..."

Ren Chenxi touched the screen of his mobile phone cautiously, fearing to break the magic from another world.

"Your Majesty, this is an album. It contains all my old photos."

Xia Yurou slid her fingers across the screen of her mobile phone, showing pictures of modern life.

"This...how is this possible?"

Ren Chenxi was deeply attracted by the magical world displayed on the mobile phone. He stared at the screen intently, as if exploring an unknown universe.

His eyes sparkled with wonder and excitement, and every swipe brought a new discovery.

Seeing how devoted he was, Xia Yurou quietly moved closer and before Ren Chenxi could react, she quickly kissed his cheek.

At the same time, she slid her fingers quickly across the screen to capture this warm and sweet moment.

"Look, this is our first photo together."

Xia Yurou showed Ren Chenxi the photos she had just taken. Looking at the pictures on the screen, a shy yet happy smile appeared on his face.

The rain stopped, and the sun shone through the clouds onto the earth, covering the Prince Chen's Palace with a layer of golden glow.

Ren Chenxi and Xia Yurou walked hand in hand in the garden. The lotus in the pond swayed gently in the breeze. The pink petals and the green lotus leaves complemented each other, and it was as beautiful as a painting. A rainbow suddenly appeared in the sky, spanning the sky, colorful and breathtakingly beautiful.

"The clear blue sky reflects the rainbow, and the moonlight on the lotus pond is hazy. Let's enjoy this beautiful scenery together, and live up to the good time and love."

Ren Chenxi was deeply moved by Xia Yurou's poetry. He stared at the gorgeous rainbow and spoke slowly in a low and magnetic voice: "The rainbow hangs in the sky, and the beautiful shadows of the lotus pond dance in the breeze. I wish to be with you forever in this life, and live up to the Tathagata and you."

After hearing this, Xia Yurou's face broke into a bright smile. She held Ren Chenxi's hand tightly, and their eyes met.

The light of the rainbow sprinkled on the two of them, covering them with a layer of dreamy colors.

"My Lord, I want to learn the Dragon Kingdom's writing system. Can you teach me?"

Ren Chenxi's eyes moved across Xia Yurou's face, his surprised expression clearly revealed: "Your poems are so beautiful, don't you look like an illiterate woman?"

"Your Majesty, what I know is another language, called Chinese, which is completely different from the language of Dragon Country."

Ren Chenxi nodded slightly: Chinese...what kind of writing is that?

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Rou'er, since you are willing to learn, I will teach you."

The two walked side by side towards the study, which was antique in style, with neatly arranged books and a faint scent of ink.

Ren Chenxi picked up an exquisite brush and dipped it in the ink on the inkstone, then held Xia Yurou's hand and gently placed the tip of the brush on the rice paper.

"This is the Chinese character 'Xia', which represents your last name and also symbolizes the heat of summer."

His voice was low and gentle, allowing Xia Yurou to feel the direction of the strokes and the changes in strength.

Xia Yurou stared at the tip of the pen intently, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and desire for new knowledge.

Gradually, a clear word "Xia" appeared on the paper.

Ren Chenxi held Xia Yurou's hand and gently wrote the next word on the rice paper.

"This is the Chinese character 'yu', which is composed of 'yan' and 'wu'. It means words spoken, expressing one's thoughts."

Xia Yurou stared at the movement of the pen tip. She felt the friction between the pen and the paper, and seemed to hear the sound of ink flowing on the paper.

She tried to imitate Ren Chenxi's strength, outlining the outline of the word "yu" stroke by stroke.

When the word "语" was completed, Ren Chenxi smiled and let go of her hand, allowing her to try to write the last word.

Xia Yurou calmed herself down, picked up the brush and slowly wrote the word "rou" on the paper.

The pen tip jumps on the paper, the ink flows, and the word "soft" also appears on the paper.

The sunlight shines through the window lattices, and mottled light and shadows slowly flow in the study, adding a bit of liveliness to this quiet space.

Ren Chenxi sat next to Xia Yurou, leaned forward slightly and said, "Rou'er, you learn really fast. This character is written with great charm."

Hearing the prince's praise, Xia Yurou's face flushed and her eyes sparkled with joy.

This afternoon seemed to be frozen in every corner of the study by Xia Yurou's pen.

The sunlight slanted down on the tips of her hair; the golden light intertwined with her jet-black hair, like a delicate painting.

Her eyes were focused and bright, sparkling with a desire for knowledge.

Ren Chenxi sat quietly by the side drinking tea, his eyes sometimes falling on Xia Yurou's profile, sometimes on the rice paper she was writing on.

He occasionally whispered instructions, his voice gentle and magnetic, like a clear spring in a mountain stream flowing into Xia Yurou's heart.

The number of words on the rice paper gradually increased. From the initial awkwardness to the later fluency, Xia Yurou's progress was obvious.

She outlined each word stroke by stroke, as if she was carving her own future.

Every word is filled with her hard work and sweat, and also testifies to the deep friendship between her and Ren Chenxi.
