The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people
Chapter 142 Wangjiang Tower
Wangjiang Tower is built on Chang'an Avenue, the busiest street in the capital, some distance away from Qu'an Street.
Along the way, Li Yu'an never stopped peeling the lychees. Soon, a plate of crystal clear lychees was peeled by him and piled up like a small mountain on the small plate.
Li Yuan carefully picked up the plate with his slender hands and placed it in front of His Highness.
"This is a token of my heart, Your Highness, please try it."
Liang Chongyue picked up a lychee casually and looked up along his hand.
"Grand Tutor Li has a face as beautiful as a crown of jade, but this princess has never noticed it before."
Liang Chongyue put the lychee into his mouth, took only a quick bite and put it down.
Just as she thought, after tasting better ones, she couldn't eat such ordinary fruits anymore.
There was a whole plate of lychees, but His Highness only took a small bite. Li Yu'an was not annoyed. He picked up the one that His Highness had just tasted and put it into his mouth, savoring it carefully.
"Your Highness has good taste. These lychees are simply more delicious than others. As for my appearance, it was given by my parents. If Your Highness likes me, why not take me into your home so you can admire me to your heart's content? Otherwise, if I die in a few years, Your Highness won't be able to see my face anymore."
In response to his presumptuous behavior, Liang Chongyue just smiled and turned away, refusing to pay any attention.
Li Yu'an seemed to be inconsiderate as he came over with the plate of lychees, sat down under her couch, rested his head on it, and after a long, comfortable sigh, he took the plate of lychees and started eating.
Liang Chongyue thought he had calmed down and was just about to plan his future plans in his mind when he heard the person leaning against his legs getting restless again.
"Your Highness, if I really don't have much time left, would Your Highness be willing to give me some alms?"
Li Yu'an's tone was calm but with a hint of sadness, and it sounded like that was the case.
If she hadn't already learned the truth from her grandfather, she would have almost been fooled by this liar.
"Don't worry, Grand Master Li, if that day ever comes, given the friendship between you and me, I will make a generous annual offering to you, ensuring that you will have plenty of food and clothing in the afterlife."
Li Yuan seemed to have expected His Highness to say so, and from an angle that His Highness could not see, a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Then Your Highness must remember me for the rest of your life and never forget me, otherwise no one will burn paper money for me. I have been spoiled all my life and cannot endure hardship, even if I die."
"Just one joke like this is enough. Don't keep talking about death all the time. It's unlucky."
Liang Chongyue only believed in science in her life, but she also didn't like people constantly complaining about the passing of time in her ears.
Compared to this kind of melancholic temperament, she prefers boys with strong vitality, who can be seen to be in good health just by looking at them.
Li Yu'an looked up at His Highness without blinking, as if he was mesmerized by His Highness's beauty. After a long while, he smiled and spoke:
"Okay, I won't talk about it anymore."
When they arrived at Wangjiang Tower, Li Yu'an was about to get off the car when a slender hand suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his way.
"You left the capital with the Emperor's approval. It was also the Emperor's will that you retain your official position and receive your salary. The capital is full of his spies, and you're still with me. If you get off this carriage, the Emperor will quickly know you're back. Aren't you afraid?"
Li Yu'an looked at the owner of the delicate hand, his eyes twinkling like stars. He lifted the carriage curtain, and the scorching sunlight outside instantly poured into the carriage:
"To be able to dine with Your Highness is something I have never wished for. I am not afraid, not even if the sky falls."
Li Yu'an had already gotten off the carriage, but his laughter was still echoing in the carriage.
When Liang Chongyue got off the car, the first person he saw was Jing Suiyang. Li Yuan, who was smiling happily just now, had been pushed aside.
Li Yu'an looked at the Black Guard standing in front of him with a cold look in his eyes, and the smile on his face faded a little.
He had not been back for only two years, and the Black Guards had become increasingly unruly.
Liang Chongyue seemed not to notice what had happened and got off the carriage with the help of Jing Suiyang.
Wangjianglou is owned by the Xiang family and is one of the most famous restaurants in the capital. In the past, it only received distinguished guests. When the shopkeeper who was checking the accounts inside heard that it was Her Royal Highness the Princess's carriage coming, he put away the account book and immediately went out to greet her.
Liang Chongyue stood under the carriage and was not in a hurry to go in. He looked around and sure enough, the people on the second floor of the restaurant opposite took a look at here and then got up and left.
Liang Chongyue teased Li Yu'an as he walked towards Wangjiang Tower.
"The news of Grand Tutor Li's return to the capital will probably reach Father soon. Has Grand Tutor Li figured out how to explain this to Father?"
After all, Li Yu'an has been by His Majesty's side for many years and is highly valued by His Majesty. Although he cannot guess all of His Majesty's thoughts, he at least understands some of them.
His Highness's two harmless words could not scare him.
While Li Yu'an was fanning His Highness, immersed in the satisfaction of their journey together, he was also thinking seriously about how to answer His Highness's question.
"As a subject, I must be honest and sincere. I have always been thinking of Your Highness, and this trip back to the capital is naturally for Your Highness. Your Highness, do you think Your Majesty will believe my answer?"
"Father has always trusted Grand Tutor Li. Whether he will believe him this time depends on Grand Tutor's ability."
She didn't believe it anyway.
Liang Chongyue usually didn't like to have a grand princess procession when she went out, but the people in Wangjiang Tower were all well-known figures in the capital, and each of them was a smart person among smart people.
It is rumored that the owner of Wangjiang Tower is related to the royal family and has always been mysterious. Even the shopkeeper is neither humble nor arrogant even when meeting princes. This is the first time that the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower has come out to greet people in person, and someone immediately sent a servant to inquire about the news.
As soon as Liang Chongyue stepped over the threshold of Wangjiang Tower with his left foot, the news that Princess Zhenguo was coming to Wangjiang Tower spread throughout the entire building.
"I, the servant of Wangjiang Tower, Mo Youqian, pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess. May Her Royal Highness live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years, a thousand thousand years."
The shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower knelt down, and the diners who were having meals in the lobby quickly put down their chopsticks and knelt down towards the beautiful and wealthy princess standing at the door, following the shopkeeper Mo to welcome her.
"Everyone, please get up. This princess is here to have dinner today. There is no need to be so polite."
Only with the approval of Her Royal Highness the Princess did the people kneeling in the hall dare to stand up.
However, it was the Princess Zhenguo who came in person. Thinking of the things that Her Royal Highness had been doing in recent days, those who thought of something was up to them were so panicked that their hands were shaking while holding the chopsticks, and they wished they could disappear right there; those who were honest in their actions would secretly glance at Her Royal Highness the Princess from the corner of their eyes from time to time, wanting to catch a glimpse of her graceful and beautiful appearance.
"I didn't know Your Highness was coming, and I apologize for not coming to greet you. I beg Your Highness to forgive me."
After Mo Youqian stood up, he trotted all the way to the front of His Highness, and his back, which was usually straight, suddenly bent down.
"This princess came here today to try the new seasonal specialties from Wangjiang Tower. Just find me a seat with a good view, and the shopkeeper can serve the rest as he pleases."
"Yes, yes, Your Highness, please come this way. Room 1 is still available. It has the best view in our restaurant."
Liang Chongyue followed Mo Youqian upstairs. She still remembered that the first time she came to Wangjiang Tower was when her uncle brought her here. He said she came to get acquainted with the place so that she wouldn't lose sight of her family's property if she walked on the street.
