The next day, I slept until the sun was three poles high before I woke up.

Is my mother being so kind and not coming to torture me today?

Oh! Now I live in my father emperor’s palace!

When Chen Liangfu saw that I was awake, he smiled and asked a maid to bring the washbasin.

I let them toss me around like a puppet.

Freshened up, changed clothes.

Today, the maid tied double buns for me and secured them with red ribbons. It was very festive and matched my round face.

Heh, why do I look like a New Year painting doll?

Afterwards, Chen Liangfu picked me up and walked out.

When I saw the route we took.. Dude!

This is the way to go to the court in the Zichen Palace!

I put my panicked hands around Chen Liangfu’s neck and asked, “Eunuch Chen, where are we going?”

Chen Liangfu replied with a smile: “The emperor took pity on the princess and was afraid that the princess would be bored when she woke up, so he ordered this slave to carry the princess to the court.”

Oh my God! Damn it, after this, I’ll definitely become the sieve of the entire harem!

I really didn’t know which nerve of my imperial father didn’t connect correctly!?

In the Zichen Palace, I nestled in the emperor’s arms and was watched by all of the civil and military officials.

Not long after, the Prime Minister spoke.

“Your Majesty! This is contrary to the norm!”

I curled my lips and thought to myself.

[This old man is very bad. It is mostly his fault that the second prince decided to rebel! It’s normal that he won’t be able to see me being favored!]

The emperor hugged me tightly.

“It’s not your turn to dictate what chen wants to do. If there are things, say them directly, if there are no things, leave the court.”

I and all the civil and military officials below put on the same horrified expression.

[Hey, is this cheap dad being posessed by something? Hasn’t he always been the most tolerant towards the Prime Minister!? Because of his merits in accompanying the dragon, the emperor has never shown a black face towards him!]

I took a glance and saw that the Prime Minister’s face was as black as coal.

“Your Majesty, hundreds of people are now in dire straits due to the heavy floods in the southern region. This minister pleads with Your Majesty to allocate funds for disaster relief!”

Here it comes!

My little hands tightened and I grabbed my father’s dragon robe.

Father looked at me with an unclear look, and then asked the Prime Minister to continue his words.

“This minister believes that the eldest prince holds a distinguished status, so it would be more appropriate to delegate other prince to deliver relief money and food to the disaster area instead.”

[Oh, his next words must be, ‘This minister thinks that the second prince can go and hone his skills’!]

“This minister thinks that the second prince can go and hone his skills!”

[Look, look, look… Then the second prince takes 300,000 taels of disaster relief money to recruit troops, buy horses, and purchase land in the southern region, lies to this foolish father of mine, and then rebels with the reasons of the people being in dire straits, the emperor being unworthy of his throne, and being condemned by God. It’s really ridiculous, how can you blame this silly dad of mine for natural disasters?]

The emperor lifted me up and patted my back, as if coaxing me to sleep.

“Chen already has other plan for the second prince. My estemeed ministers, who among the remaining princes do you think should be sent?”

[The Third Imperial Brother is the best for sure. He is wholeheartedly devoted to the eldest imperial brother and to the people. His martial arts are also very good. Although he is a little stupid, he is very loyal! When the Second Prince rebelled, he even stood in front of the Emperor and the Eldest Imperial Brother by himself! Oh, and in front of me too! My third imperial brother is the regret that I couldn’t get over!!]

“This minister thinks the third prince is suitable for this task!” The General of Weiwu stepped forward and said.

The General of Weiwu is the martial arts teacher of the third prince.

“This minister thinks the Fifth Prince is suitable! Although he is young, it’s time for him to gain experience.” The speaker was the Minister of Finance.

I snorted in my heart and thought.

[Funny, if you regard disaster relief as a field to gain experience, doesn’t that mean you treat the people as playthings?]

Bang! The memorial on the father’s desk was thrown in the face of the Minister of Finance.

Everyone in the hall knelt down in fear!

“Third Prince, obey the order!”

The confused Third Prince stepped forward and knelt down.

“Son is here!”

“Accept the order to take three hundred thousand taels of silver and one hundred carts of grain as an imperial envoy to the southern region for disaster relief!”

“Son obeys the order.”

The matter of disaster relief was settled.

After the court, I broke away from my father’s arms and asked for some time to go out and play!

After that, I rubbed my little hands and waited in the Imperial Garden.

Every time my third imperial brother saw me, he would accompany me to play in the Imperial Garden, and then brought some snacks from his residence for me.

But, our meeting time wasn’t really much. After all, the Third Imperial Brother is older and it is not convenient for him to enter and leave the harem.

But he saw me in the main hall today and he would definitely come!

My ears twitched, and sure enough, he was here!

“Sixth Sister!”

“Third Brother!”

The Third Imperial Brother picked me up and pinched my nose.

“Sixth Sister has gained a lot of weight again, not bad! Look, the pear blossom cakes that imperial brother had the servant bring for you are so delicious!”

Before the food box was opened, I could already smell the tangy fragrance.

I happily let Biyu accept it!

This time, the Third Imperial Brother was going to travel far, and I had a gift for him.

The Second Prince failed to get the task for disaster relief as he wished, he might resort to some dirty tricks.

I quietly stuffed the sleeve crossbow I made into the sleeve of my third brother. I secretly collected the materials and made it to save my life. Now that the emperor had personally raise me, it wasn’t necessary anymore.

“Third Brother, this is the weapon that I made for you. It is suitable for life-saving use. Others will not find it easily.”

Third Brother touched the weapon in his sleeve, pinched my fat face and said, “I’m indeed not wrong for doting you!”

At this time, I didn’t know that this sleeve crossbow would really save the Third Brother’s life.
