Starting with the Magic Absorption Technique: I swept through the fantasy world.

Li Yili walked beside her, feeling as sweet as if she were eating honey. Looking around, she saw that although there were mostly women, there were also men. The happiness on their faces was genuine. Although they were poor and ordinary people, their contentment and smiles were real and without any pretense.

She thought to herself that although she was a princess, comparable to a duke, she had lived in the palace since her parents died. Although she was rich and noble, what did it matter?

She understood the saying that the imperial family was the most ruthless, otherwise she wouldn't be living alone in this world without parents. In fact, she longed for the life of an ordinary person.

She stole a glance at the boy, then looked at the people around her. She couldn't help but move closer to Wang Mu, her face beaming with smiles, hoping that they could stay together like this forever.

When she came back, she was as happy as a little girl, buying groceries and strolling through the market, finding joys she didn't know existed, discovering how fun it was.

As we walked into the college, we were met with many hushed whispers.

Li Yili is beautiful and has the status of a princess, so many people know her. Although Wang Mu doesn't know many people, if even one person recognizes him and mentions his name, almost everyone knows him.

Wang Mu completely ignored the passersby, while the princess was initially somewhat reserved and uneasy about the pointing and whispering of others.

Later on, just like Wang Mu, she didn't care at all, because those people didn't understand the joy in such ordinary things.

Upon arriving at the accommodation, one had to climb a staircase more than two meters high, resembling a stilted house.

Once inside the room, Wang Mu put down the vegetable basket. "Princess, thank you for tidying up my room. As a princess, it's really a bit indebted of you to do such a thing."

“That’s right, my princess comes every day,” Qiao Li interjected from the side.

"Qiao Li." The princess called out to Qiao Li, then said to Wang Mu, "I just want you to have a clean room when you come back."

Wang Mu was very touched. "To express my gratitude, I'll cook you a nice meal today. You've always wanted to, and I have time today."

Upon hearing this, Li Yili wondered if she was after a lavish feast.

Although she was a little disappointed, she felt that she was much closer to the emperor now, and that they could chat and cook together in the same room, which felt like a home.

In an ordinary household, she helped with picking and washing vegetables and cooking, while Qiao Li assisted her. The three of them lived a leisurely life.

Qiao Li brought over a basin of water. "Princess, please wash up."

"Is my face dirty?" Li Yili asked.

Qiao Li smiled, and Li Yili quickly took out a mirror. Seeing her own ashen face, she stole a glance at Wang Mu and said urgently, "Ah, Qiao Li, why didn't you tell me?"

Qiao Li took the mirror from the princess and helped her look at herself, saying, "Princess, I called you several times, but you didn't hear me, hehe."

While washing, Li Yili said, "Laugh at me, but look at yourself, you're pretty much the same, hehe."

Qiao Li looked at herself in the mirror and saw that it was indeed so. She was also anxious. At this moment, the princess said, "Take a look, are you clean?"

"Okay, it's all clean now," Qiao Li said after checking carefully.

"Hurry up and wash yourself, you're so embarrassing!" Li Yili said with a grin.

Without the princess saying anything, Qiao Li put the mirror aside and quickly washed her face.

Wang Mu took out a bottle of wine from inside. When Li Yili saw that it was a gift from her, she said, "Your Majesty, is there any more wine? I will have someone send some more tomorrow."

"There's still plenty left, let's finish it first."

Wang Mu grabbed a few more cups; he had bought three while shopping for groceries. "Qiao Li, let's sit down together when we're done."

Seeing the princess's smile and lack of objection, Qiao Li was overjoyed and grateful to Wang Mu. She knew that there was a difference between master and servant, and they could not simply sit at the same table and eat together.

During the last outdoor training session, Li Yili knew the emperor's temperament. In his eyes, he didn't care about the master-servant relationship at all. As long as he could approve of it, he would sit down and eat and drink with him.

After the three were seated, Wang Mu poured the wine, raised his glass, and said, "Let's raise a glass and wish each other a Happy New Year."

Although the princess and Qiao Li didn't understand, they would agree with whatever the young man suggested, both saying, "Happy New Year."

"Princess, drink slowly and eat more vegetables."

"Yes, yes, so many dishes, I want to eat them all," Li Yili said with a smile, looking at the five or six dishes in front of her, which looked and smelled delicious. Most importantly, she had never seen these dishes before in her life.

"How is it?" Wang Mu asked, looking at the princess.

Li Yili took a bite of the green beans and minced meat and said, "It's so delicious."

"Aren't you afraid of spicy food?"

The princess asked, "Yes, there is a little bit, but it's really delicious, both spicy and sour. By the way, these green beans are sour, I've never seen them before. How did you make them?"

Wang Mu replied, "I made them myself. These pickled vegetables, as well as the cured fish, cured meat, and dried small fish, are all made by myself."

"Your Majesty, you are so capable! Even in the palace, we don't have such delicious food."

“That’s right, this is one of a kind in this world.” Wang Mu laughed, and what he said was true. He then said, “Qiao Li, eat it, don’t just look at it.”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Qiao Li lowered her head, her eyes slightly red, and scooped up some pickled cowpeas and minced meat with a spoon. It tasted a bit spicy.

"Slow down," Wang Mu said. "Are you feeling the spiciness?"

Qiao Li quickly got up to drink water, and Wang Mu said to Li Yili, "Princess, don't bear the spiciness."

"I'm fine now," Li Yili said with a smile. "Your Majesty, do you cook such delicious meals every day in your hometown?"

"Of course, this is just a regular home-cooked dish."

"Ah, so much delicious food! I want to go to your hometown. Can you take me there sometime?" the princess said, looking at the other person with her eyes.

A blank expression flashed across his face, and Wang Mu said in a low voice, "I probably can't go back for now. I haven't found the way back yet."

Is your hometown very far from here?

Seeing that the other party did not answer, Li Yili said again, "I saw that you have several books on spatial spiritual power, as well as notes."

"It is a bit far. Okay, let's not talk about these things. Let's talk about something happy." Wang Mu didn't want to sink into homesickness again.

"it is good."

Seeing the desolate and melancholic look in the other person's eyes, Li Yili felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't know how to comfort them. Now that the other person had taken the initiative to change the subject, she sighed inwardly, but her face remained smiling.

Just then, Qiao Li returned. She picked up her glass and said, "Come on, let's have another drink together."

"Okay, let's drink."

Back at the academy, Wang Mu's life returned to normal.

The next day, I went to class in the morning and to the library in the afternoon, or I went out to find some small things near the college to make by hand, whether they were food or household items. In the middle of the day, I met Princess Lixue in the library.
