"Princess, I will grind the ink for you."

The emperor gave the task, and Li Yi could only follow it.

Princess Xiangyu didn't even look at him, she went straight to the inner room, and then everyone in the palace dispersed.

Li Yi shook his head. In this situation, there is no chance of painting, so he should leave as soon as possible.

"Master Si, the emperor asked you to accompany the princess to finish the painting before going back."

“…”

"Excuse me, please go to Sheng Mansion and bring me some clothes. Tell my wife that I won't be able to go back in the next few days." Li Yi said to the person waiting next to him.

What kind of thing does the emperor do? Princess Xiangyu doesn't even like him. She even goes back after finishing the painting. If she wants him to live in the princess mansion, just tell her.

For two hours, there was no movement inside.

What's even more outrageous is that it's already noon, and there's no one to bring him food.

The people in this princess mansion really followed Princess Xiangyu.

Holding the arm of the chair, Li Yi stood up, then turned to one side. With a bang, Li Yi and the chair fell to the ground.

This movement naturally attracted people to check it out, but they ignored it, but if something happened, they would not be able to reap the consequences.

"Princess, I fell unconscious." The maid came into the inner room and reported.

Princess Xiangyu raised her eyes and said, "Go and ask the imperial doctor to send the person back."

Not long after the maid went out, a voice came from outside: "Princess, the emperor has told you that none of us will leave the princess's mansion until you finish painting."

Li Yi, who was pretending to be unconscious, secretly raised his eyebrows. This didn't look like he was doting on him, it was clearly forcing him.

The emperor forced Princess Xiangyu to paint, for what purpose?

Does her painting look good?

If it were that simple, it wouldn't be like this.

Before the imperial doctor arrived, Li Yi woke up with a few coughs.

Thanks to the emperor, he had the honor to live in the princess's mansion.

The emperor insisted on letting Princess Xiangyu paint, but there was no movement from Princess Xiangyu after those words.

This brother-sister relationship is not as good as rumors.

According to rumors, the emperor doted on Princess Xiangyu to the core, wanting the stars but not the moon.

The food in the Princess Mansion was very frugal and not as good as what Li Yi had in the Sheng family. He didn't have to doubt that this was definitely a portion given to him casually in the big kitchen.

There are no pigs in the Princess Mansion, which makes Li Yi feel a little relieved. He loves small animals and it is not good to compete with pigs for food.

Li Yi stayed at the princess's residence. The emperor's explanation to the outside world was that the princess admired Li Yi's paintings very much and the two cherished each other.

Princess Xiangyu asked to keep Li Yi as her companion. How could the emperor refuse to agree if he was so doting on his sister?

As for Li Yi, who was sitting on a push chair with his face ruined, no one would think there was any possibility of ambiguity in this.

It can only be Li Yi's paintings, which are as extraordinary as his poems.

Li Yi almost burst into laughter. His ink painting and chicken stained with ink were all better than his.

The emperor really dares to speak, let's test his strength.

In the Sheng family, Yun Niang put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Father, why did the emperor leave Si Jian in the princess's residence?"

"Princess Xiangyu has spoken. The emperor will not respond. Don't worry, Jian'er will be back in two days." Father Sheng said casually.

Yun Niang mentioned that Li Yi once sold calligraphy and painting for a living. Because Li Yi was so good at poetry, everyone subconsciously thought that he was very good at painting.

Princess Xiangyu is also a strong expert in this field. She is usually taciturn. She is only somewhat interested in painting, so it is not strange for Li Yi to discuss it.

Only Yun Niang knew that this was abnormal. Li Yi could copy poems, but he could not forge paintings.

As for Li Yi's painting, she was disgusted when she saw it, let alone Princess Xiangyu. She didn't kick the person out on the spot, even if it saved Li Yi's face.

Let alone talking to the emperor.

Yun Niang bit her lip lightly, it must not be as simple as it seems, the little eunuch is really a troublemaker, and anything can get involved with him.

But as long as his identity is not exposed, there should be no fear for his life.

After dinner, Yun Niang returned to the courtyard. There was one person missing in the room, and she felt a little uncomfortable with the silence.

Lying on the bed, Yun Niang tossed and turned, knowing that her life was not in danger and no one was around, she couldn't feel at ease.

After putting on her clothes, Yun Niang looked at the night outside and lowered her eyes. After a long time, an inaudible sigh dissipated in the room.

The food was not good, but the accommodation was decent. Li Yi put his hands behind his head and his thoughts flew to Daqian.

If it hadn't been for what happened in Dongxia Mountain, he would never be in Princess Xiangyu's mansion at this moment.

Dabao and Xiaobao can already call daddy loudly at this time.

Even the youngest Runer is learning to speak.

At this stage, as a father, he was absent.

Because Chao'er was born prematurely, her body bones are weaker than those of ordinary children. I don't know how she is being nursed back to health.

The little guy was very light when he was born, but now he is much heavier.

If Guo Tan's daughter Lan'er is still alive, she must be healthy and strong.

It won't be a problem for one to fight three of her peers.

Blame him for being stingy, the longevity lock is not strong enough, otherwise...

Li Yi took a deep breath.

It’s just a full moon!

With his eyes tightly closed, Li Yi forced himself to sleep.

He had to let Princess Xiangyu finish the painting as soon as possible so that everyone could be relieved and he could arrange their departure.

Being stuck here is a waste of time for Li Yi.

One more day wasted will make those people happier.

Li Yi didn't want to see them happy for a moment.

Early the next morning, the boy knocked on the door of Xun Xiu Monastery.

"Miracle Doctor Xun, a man who claims to be your old friend, asked me to bring you a letter, saying that you will know after reading it."

"let it go."

Xun Xiu's voice came from inside.

The boy put the letter in the crack of the door, bowed and left.

It was not until half an hour later that Xun Xiu walked over and took out the letter from the crack in the door.

With his great reputation, many people have sent him messages these days, hoping that he can come to the house.

Xun Xiu often took one look at it and put it aside.

Later, he made it clear that there was no need to send these things over again.

The post doesn't work. Is this another way? Not many of his old friends are dead.

He opened the letter casually, and when he saw the first line of words, his pupils shrank.

You are alive!

Xun Xiu's fingers were trembling, and there was excitement on his usually expressionless face.

"Princess, the sun is shining brightly today, but it is very suitable for painting." Li Yi shouted as someone carried him outside Princess Xiangyu's door.

With Princess Xiangyu's temperament, Li Yi shouldn't expect her to take the initiative.

"Princess, it's very inconvenient for a foreigner to stay here all the time. The cook in your house is really not good either."

"If you don't draw, I won't be able to leave."

"My health is not very good. I have to rely on medicine every day to keep up. If this continues, the princess's house is afraid that there will be many innocent souls."

"In order for you to sleep peacefully, let's paint."

"Princess?"

"Princess?"

"Princess?"

Li Yi shouted in a suppressed voice, each sound louder than the last.

"Go in and see if the princess is depressed?"

The maids who were waiting for orders outside the door glanced at Li Yi when they heard what he said.
