Every festive season, it has become an unchanging rule to give out porridge and money outside Prince Yu's Mansion for three consecutive days. As soon as Hua Ling was about to go out in the morning, she was startled by the people outside the door and turned around to find Li Chengyu.
.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! There are many people outside!"
Li Chengyu had just finished washing himself, and while waiting for Hua Ling to come for breakfast, he was flipping through the military books. Hearing the chirping sound, he said lightly: "They are giving out porridge and money outside."
"Ah," Hua Ling sat down, "Why do you need to give out porridge and money?"
"They are all poor and these can help them survive."
Hua Ling still looked like she didn't understand. Li Chengyu shook his head helplessly, closed the military book, touched her head, and just said: "Eat, I will take you to see it later and we will know."
Hua Ling does not know love, the ways of the world, and the sufferings of the world. Therefore, she cannot imagine what it means to be poor, what it means to not have enough to eat, and what it means to be unable to survive.
So when Li Chengyu took her to the slum, he looked surprised and a little unbelievable.
Mu Lin has strong financial resources, but not every family of the people is well-clothed and well-fed. There are always people who are still suffering from cold and hunger in unknown places.
The amount of money others get from listening to a ditty may be more than they can earn in a year.
There is no absolute fairness in this world. Some people who are born in the mud or poor struggle desperately, fighting against the sky, themselves, and the world, gritting their teeth and making their way out, while some only see their way through it.
Looking to the sky and complaining about the unfairness of the world, some people become numb. Since this has been the case for the rest of their lives, let's just live like this.
But no matter which one, they have experienced hardships and hardships.
Li Chengyu could not completely help such people, so he could only do his best. Relatively speaking, in Mulin, there were very few such poor people.
The soup kitchen was set up in three places, one of which was the place where they were. Li Chengyu taught Hua Ling to help in the slums for a whole morning.
"They are so pitiful." Hua Ling murmured when she came out.
Li Chengyu didn't reply, only Hua Ling said again: "Can I help them in any way?"
Li Chengyu smiled and patted her head habitually: "You can do a lot of things."
Hua Ling's eyes lit up again.
Li Chengyu looked into these eyes: "Are you willing to help them?"
"Um!"
Li Chengyu took the little girl's hand.
"Let's go home."
This winter, Li Chengyu taught Hua Ling something very important and meaningful to her.
Well, the cold will eventually pass, either quickly or slowly, but we have to wait and don't be easily disappointed.
………………
The year has passed, and in the blink of an eye, the new year has arrived. The relationship between Hua Ling and Li Chengyu seems to have not changed much, but it seems to have changed a lot.
Li Chengyu would sometimes grab this little girl who spoke out loud and put her on his lap to tell her to be quiet. Hua Ling's active and unconscious teasing made Li Chengyu always look like he had a headache in the past.
, now he will become a guest. The previous title of quasi-imperial concubine seemed to be made up out of thin air, but now there may be some changes.
Of course, these flower spirits are confused, even if it is her own business, because in her subconscious, Li Chengyu is her man - although she does not know how she formed this concept.
.
"My lord, why do you always kiss me?"
"Huh? Didn't you say you wanted to kiss me?" Li Chengyu asked, raising his eyebrows.
"oh……"
Yes, she was the one who said she wanted to kiss...
Well, she always remembers who spoke first, but never forgets who took the initiative.
In Tanyou's words, the idiot prince just bullied Hua Ling.
Ming Feng patted Hua Ling on the shoulder: "Not bad, you managed to get that rogue prince so quickly? Well, brother, I'm very pleased!"
Tanyou rolled his eyes and sneered: "It's not you who did it, why are you so happy? Besides..."
Tanyou looked the little flower spirit up and down and curled her lips, hey, we still don’t know who is responsible for this!
Ming Feng played with a strand of his hair and chuckled: "Of course I'm happy. Xiao Hua'er can handle this guy. Maybe he got a bit of my true inheritance unconsciously by being with me."
Tanyou snorted and cursed "Fox Mei Zi".
Hua Ling just looked at them arguing with her tea cup in hand. Gardenia pinched her face and said in a soft voice: "Little Hua Ling, how much do you like that idiot prince?"
Hua Ling groaned silently, thought about it seriously, and said, "I think he is probably my favorite man. No matter how many men I have in the future, I will like him more!"
Gardenia: "..."
Tanyou, who was having a verbal spat with Ming Feng, instantly forgot what he was going to say when he heard this and opened his mouth silently.
Even the smile on Ming Feng's face froze for a moment.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and three pairs of eyes stared straight at her, wanting to say something, but something seemed to be stuck in their throats.
Hua Ling shrank back when they looked at her, and asked weakly: "What's wrong?"
After a long time, Ming Feng asked: "You, how, uh, when did you have several...men?"
The word "several" is really hard to bite.
Ming Feng and the others have been in the world for many years and understand many things in the world. Therefore, they will not come to the world with the purpose of love like Hua Ling, and then open and close their mouths and say things like "I want men! Several!"
Even though Ming Feng was like this, he was a little dumbfounded by Xiao Hua Ling's behavior.
And, since when did she have more than one?
Hua Ling shook her head: "No, I mean, no matter how many I have, I don't have one yet. Now I only have the prince. When I have the second one, my favorite will still be the prince."
"..."
Ming Feng's face twitched.
There was another long silence, and Tanyou thought to herself, what would Li Chengyu's face look like if he heard this?
Hua Lingyou coughed, probably because she couldn't bear the atmosphere, and added: "This is called... special favor."
Tanyou, who was drinking water to calm down his mood, directly started to spray out "Puff!"
Gardenia sighed, pinched Hua Ling's little face, and said helplessly: "Forget it, just ask for your blessings. The idea at the beginning is that it is difficult to change, and there must always be a transition.
"Yes," she patted Hua Ling's head, and continued with an expression like "the child is stupid but can't be thrown away": "When you really know what love is, you will understand!"
Hua Ling came here as if she knew nothing about this world. She was ignorant of worldly affairs. No one had ever taught her what feelings were. There were some things and certain perceptions that only she could understand by slowly exploring them.
You will truly understand that the current flower spirit is actually similar to a child who has just been born. His mind is blank. He is looking at everything in the world and understanding bit by bit what he sees and what his initial impression is.
, all new, all for the first time.
Many years later, Hua Ling realized that when she first entered the world, she had certain perceptions and things that she found a little funny.
Descriptions of love in the human world can be found in long poems throughout the ages. In the sky, I wish to be a winged bird, and on earth, I wish to be a twig. This was the first sentence Li Chengyu taught her.
In the days that followed, Hua Ling continued to be careless, but from time to time she would go to the slums to help those people do something, and Li Chengyu continued to accompany her.
Just after the New Year, Li Chengyu went to court to report that Beihen was about to attack. There had been many minor and minor violations. He begged to lead the troops in advance to stabilize the morale of the army and make preparations in advance. The Emperor agreed that after March
Set off.
The next month, Mu Sirong's wedding shocked the capital, and Li Chengyu congratulated her with a heavy ceremony.
The sweetness of the newlyweds, both of them probably knew that the army was about to go out, so it was particularly prickly in Li Chengyu's eyes, so he simply left it alone for the next few days after the wedding.
Fortunately, Li Chengyu rubbed the little flower spirit who was busy preparing to give things to the people in the slums the next day. He would not be bored by this little man's presence.
What Li Chengyu didn't expect was that he would actually see this scene.
On the street after returning from the previous court, Li Chengyu saw the figures of a man and a woman, who looked particularly familiar, but he didn't pay much attention to them.
"Hey? What are you doing?" It was a man's voice with a relatively gentle voice. Li Chengyu just thought it sounded familiar and couldn't help but look in that direction.
"I think this is pretty good, it looks good!" This voice was very clear, and this voice was no longer familiar to Li Chengyu.
Li Chengyu stepped forward and patted the woman on the shoulder, and the two men turned back at the same time.
Hua Ling was holding a hairpin, saw the person coming clearly, smiled and said: "Your Majesty! What a coincidence!"
Li Chengyu nodded slightly and glanced at the man next to him, who was Lu Min, the eldest son of Bei'an Marquis.
"Well, what are you doing?"
How did this girl know Lumin?
Hua Ling ran over and pulled him, raising the hairpin in her hand, "Num, does this look good?"
Lu Min bowed his hands to Li Chengyu and said, "Your Majesty, Ling'er has fallen in love with a hairpin, and I am planning to buy it for her and give it to her."
Ling'er? Hey~ It's so annoying!
Huh? That’s not right! Ling’er? Li Chengyu seemed to have a ball of anger in his heart. How familiar is this? He was called Ling’er?
Hua Ling was very happy: "Really? Really? Great! I like this!"
The ball in Li Chengyu's heart seemed to have grown bigger again, no, if you like it, can't I buy it for you?
Why would you want someone else’s!
Hua Ling has a lot of little Jiujiu in her heart. She is worried that the prince will have no money and he has to take her to eat and help the slums from time to time. She is worried that the prince has no money!
Of course, what she didn't know was that Li Chengyu didn't need her to worry at all.
In Hua Ling's mind, Li Chengyu had become a poor prince with no money for the first time, and he really only needed a cane to beg!
