He Chuan didn’t take it seriously.
But Princess Changning took it to heart.
The next day, she came to the library pavilion with her big and small bags as if she was moving house.
“What is Your Highness doing this time?” He Chuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Why did it seem like she was running away from famine?
“From now on, I will live in the library pavilion! I will train with Little Eunuch He every day!” Princess Changning said very seriously.
!!
He Chuan was dumbfounded when faced with such a situation.
Live in the library?
“Your Highness, please don’t joke around. The environment here is simple and crude. You’re a royal family member. What if something happens to you?”
What kind of joke was this? He didn’t want this princess to live here.
“Didn’t Little Eunuch say that if I want to become a strong person, I must be able to endure hardship and hard work? If I can’t even endure this little bit of hardship, how can I talk about becoming a strong person!” Princess Changning said confidently.
He Chuan now had a deep understanding of what it meant to throw a stone at his own feet.
He didn’t think that the other party would take it seriously.
“Your Highness, you must be joking. This place is really not suitable for you!” He hurriedly tried to persuade her.
“No, Eunuch He promised me yesterday. You can’t go back on your words!” Princess Changning began to play the fool, saying that she would stay behind to practice martial arts no matter what.
He Chuan could easily defeat the four half-step saint cultivators.
However, facing this person in front of him, he could neither hit nor scold her.
After all, she was a child he had watched growing up. How could he not have feelings for her.
“Has the Emperor and the Empress agreed?” At this point in time, he would definitely be unable to persuade them, so he could only ask Zhou Shiming and Qin Lihua for their opinions.
“Little Eunuch He, don’t worry. Father Emperor and Mother Empress have already agreed to my request to learn martial arts from you!” Princess Changning was very determined.
“In that case, the Princess will stay here to learn martial arts for the time being. But let me say this first. If you feel that it’s too hard and tiring, you can end it right away.” He Chuan first set the rules so that she would not come to trouble him every few days.
He Chuan specially arranged the best room for Princess Changning to stay in.
No matter how hard and tiring the training was, he could not really mistreat the Princess.
After a period of time, Princess Changning actually gritted her teeth and persevered. She had no intention of leaving.
He Chuan was not the only one who was surprised. Zhou Shiming and Qin Lihua were both very surprised. They did not expect that Changning would be able to persevere under such tiring circumstances.
They were also very helpless about this.
After all, it was actually a good thing that Changning was able to persevere through one task.
Recently, Crown Prince Cheng’an had also grown quite a bit. He looked like a future wise ruler. This also made Zhou Shiming feel much more at ease.
Because of the poisoning incident last time, his body was deteriorating day by day.
As the Emperor of Great Zhou, it was impossible for him to stop to rest, let alone take care of his body.
Empress Qin Lihua was slightly worried about Changning’s actions. As a woman, she would marry sooner or later. She couldn’t possibly practice martial arts for the rest of her life.
Being in the royal family, there were many things that she couldn’t control.
“Your Majesty, when you have time, go visit this child, Changning. She can’t forget to eat and sleep. There needs to be a specific standard for what she should and shouldn’t do.” Qin Lihua gently rubbed Zhou Shiming’s shoulders.
“I happen to be going to the library pavilion in two days. I will have a talk with Changning.” Zhou Shiming closed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
Inside the library pavilion.
He Chuan had his hands behind his back as he looked at Princess Changning, who was cultivating. He couldn’t help but nod his head.
It was indeed beyond his expectations. This person was more persistent than he had imagined.
“When cultivating, you must be calm!” He warned.
At this moment, Zhou Shiming arrived at the library on the dragon carriage.
He Chuan had actually heard it long ago. He went up to welcome him unhurriedly.
“This Minister Greets Your Majesty,” He Chuan said.
“There’s no need to go too far. I heard that Changning is practicing martial arts at your place. What do you think?” Zhou Shiming asked straightforwardly.
“In reply to Your Majesty’s words, Her Highness the Eldest Princess’ tenacity is beyond my expectations. I originally thought that she wouldn’t be able to last three days. Who would have thought that she would be able to last for so long,” He Chuan said honestly.
He wouldn’t lie because of the Emperor.
“Oh, there’s such a thing? I have to take a good look.” Zhou Shiming knew very well what his daughter was like.
In the past, no matter what she did, she had no patience.
Now that she was able to last for so long, it was indeed not a small change.
When he walked into the inner room and found that Changning was indeed still persevering in her cultivation, Zhou Shiming revealed a gratified look.
He didn’t stand at the door and observe for a long time, nor did he go forward to disturb her.
He went to the other inner room to read some books, but he could not find the feeling he had before.
He could not help but feel melancholy.
His body was getting worse and worse. The sequelae from the last time were not small. He did not know when his soul would return to the ground.
Although he was very satisfied with the current Crown Prince Cheng’an, his age was still there. When he ascended to the throne, he would probably encounter many obstacles.
In his limited life, he should remove as many obstacles as possible for his son.
…
In the blink of an eye, five years passed.
Zhou Shimin’s body continued to deteriorate, and he was basically bedridden.
He had even paved the way for the new Emperor Cheng’an, and Crown Prince Cheng’an smoothly presided over the court affairs.
Qin Lihua ate vegetarian and prayed in the back palace every day and would not interfere in court affairs.
Only when Cheng’an ran into difficulties would he come forward to resolve them.
Many ministers proposed Princess Changning’s marriage, thinking that the royal family’s face was important and that they should find a suitable son-in-law.
But Princess Changning did not marry at all.
As time passed, no one mentioned her marriage anymore.
He Chuan’s cultivation had also improved a lot, and he had already reached saint cultivator’s seventh-stage.
He had basically signed in every special place in the Imperial Palace.
A saint cultivator could maintain his appearance. After so many years, He Chuan still looked like he was 20 years old.
Under He Chuan’s guidance and medicinal pills, Princess Changning had already become a Xiantian ninth-stage expert. She was only one step away from becoming a saint cultivator.
He had stayed in the Imperial Palace long enough, and suddenly had a yearning for life outside.
He didn’t know if it was because he had stayed in the library long enough.
Or perhaps he was tired of it. All in all, He Chuan wanted to go outside the Imperial Palace and see the great rivers and mountains of the central plains.
Perhaps he could improve his current cultivation.
It wasn’t good for people to live too comfortably.
“Master, take this!”
Princess Changning held the Autumn Water Sword in her hand and suddenly launched a sneak attack on He Chuan from behind.
He Chuan didn’t even turn his head. He stretched out two fingers, and the Autumn Water Sword was obediently clamped as if it was being pulled.
No matter how much strength Princess Changning exerted, the sword did not budge an inch.
“Master is too powerful. I’m no match for you!” After a few years of practice, Princess Changning no longer addressed him as Little Eunuch He. Instead, she addressed him as Master.
He Chuan did not care about this. It was just a form of address. She could call him whatever she wanted.
“When are we going to explore the martial arts world? What’s the point of being cooped up in the palace all the time?” Changning withdrew the Autumn Water Sword. She was in the prime of her life and yearned for the outside world very much.
The inner courtyard of the Imperial Palace was too boring.
“With your mediocre martial arts level, you still want to explore the pugilistic world? Speaking of which, you’re not afraid of being laughed at all!”
