Li Er couldn’t even understand that his beloved “padded jacket” (referring to Changle) had already sprung leaks everywhere. “If you feel unwell, rest more and avoid moving around recklessly. Su Li, you should stay by Changle’s side during this time. Your medical skills are good, so take good care of her. Changle is still young, don’t leave any lingering illness behind.” Li Er’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as he spoke. Changle’s single statement was enough for Li Er to believe it…-

“Father, I’ve been bedridden for four months. I just woke up. I still feel unwell sometimes and can’t bear to be away from my husband,” Changle looked at Li Er with slightly evasive eyes. Speaking of it, this was the first time she lied, especially to her father. Su Li looked surprised at Changle. He hadn’t even thought about having Changle come out to help. At this moment, he felt a slight warmth in his palm – Changle had reached out his hand. Changle’s heart gradually calmed down by…

Li Er looked at White Dragon in front of him, utterly bewildered. Meeting each other’s gaze, White Dragon responded with another contemptuous snort. It seemed to be quite mocking. Li Er’s obstinate temperament flared up, partly due to the excitement of the hunt and partly due to his own stubbornness. “I must tame you today!” Li Er muttered to himself, attempting to stand up. However, the White Dragon seemed to understand his words at this moment. Seeing Li Er attempting to stand up, White Dragon…

At this point, Li Er was far from being the Heavenly Khan who united various tribes to pay tribute. To be honest, the state of the Tang Dynasty in the fourth year of the Zhenguan era was not particularly stable. Despite the Tang Dynasty’s military strength extending to various regions, with numerous frontier commanderies established around the periphery… Many barbarian tribes didn’t truly respect the empire, fearing the Tang’s military might. In the years following Li Er’s declaration as…

Li Er turned to look at the female officers and maids, only to realize later. Indeed, there were so many people at the scene. He could check Little Princess’s stance’s validity by asking these people. “Tell me, what exactly happened?” The female officer quickly lowered her head and said, “Your Majesty, I personally witnessed it. Every word Princess Jinyang said is true.” Hmm? Li Er couldn’t help but furrow his brow. If only Little Princess had said this, he might not have been able to…

After a while, the surroundings finally quieted down. “Your servant failed to protect the princess. Please punish me, Your Majesty!” The female officer knelt on the ground, asking for forgiveness from Empress Zhangsun. Although Empress Zhangsun was generally benevolent, such a significant incident wouldn’t be easily overlooked. Even though Empress Zhangsun treated people generously, she understood that a mistake of this magnitude wouldn’t be easily forgiven. Moreover, Little Princess had grown…

Su Li glanced down at the little princess hanging from him, lost in thought. Su Li was in the midst of self-reflection. He felt so foolish, honestly… He only realized he could gain points from Changle, and he often felt frustrated due to lacking points. He even briefly considered involving his father-in-law in this scheme. He had been narrow-minded. This mindset had limited his options. The system’s rigid requirement for earning points involved physical contact with esteemed individuals. Su Li’s…

When White Dragon spotted Su Li, it let out a joyful chirp and dashed straight towards him. “Be careful, dear!” Changle couldn’t help but softly exclaim. That horse appeared to be a magnificent steed, exuding extraordinary energy. Not to mention the horse’s significant weight, a collision at its thundering speed would be unbearable for anyone. As one challenge subsided, another swiftly emerged. The little princess in Su Li’s arms still displayed traces of fear on her face, instinctively…

“Sister, elephant, the elephant is drinking water!” exclaimed the Little Princess excitedly. Changle, linking arms with Su Li, cheerfully introduced him, “Meet Deputy Commander-in-Chief. These majestic elephants are a tribute from South Vietnam. Despite their massive size, they possess gentle personalities. There are dedicated trainers in the Forest Garden who handle their training. They accompany His Majesty during his tours and are part of festival processions. The forest garden even holds…

The Royal family typically drew 50%, which sounded like a lot, but cultivating the imperial manor didn’t involve harsh taxes or burdensome levies, and there was no official oppression. The lives of the people were not difficult. Even into the Ming Dynasty, due to deteriorating governance, many peasants voluntarily merged their fields into the imperial estates… Princess Changle explained each point. As a princess, she was well-informed about these matters. After Princess Changle set up her own…
