PRECIOUS PRINCESS

TWENTY TWO

"Is it really uncle?" uncle Tao just nodded his head, Xiao Lan did not know that his uncle and aunt would follow them here. If the four of them go there will be many loopholes for the criminals to catch them therefore uncle Tao and uncle Tae choose to divide their journey.

"The empress is sober" said one physician, startling everyone at their dining table to rush to the harem where the empress was located,

The emperor and the princes entered the room where the empress was while Xiao Lan and Uncle Tao were waiting outside. As they waited for Uncle Tae and Aunt Fu to arrive. The princes came out of the room where the empress was. The last imperial crown prince Li came out,

"Lanlan let's go in uncle and aunt wait for us for a moment" said the crown prince holding Xiao Lan's hand to enter the empress' room.

Until there the emperor smiled and spread out his arms he hugged Xiao Lan tightly,

"This is the girl I told you about. He was the one who brought your medicine here" the emperor told the empress,

"Thank you little girl come over here and come closer to me, what's your name?" asked the empress in a gentle tone Xiao Lan walked over towards the empress,

"Xuan Lan" he said briefly,

"Who are you here with?" ask the queen again,

"Uncle and aunt" he answered truthfully,

"Where are your parents?" this question was the most painful question for Xiao Lan, she did not know how to answer him just silently then said,

"So your limit in asking" was not that what Xiao Lan wanted to say, it was very difficult to say if her mother had died and her father had never loved her, no,

"If it's time you'll know for yourself who my parents are. You're all strangers to me I don't want to tell a stranger anything about my personal life" he said coldly and then walked out,

"Lanlan wait" said crown prince Li chasing after Xiao Lan,

"Am I wrong to ask that question?" the Queen was surprised, though,

The emperor calmed the empress down by hugging her, "Maybe she still won't tell us who she really is, you remember she doesn't know and trust us completely. I'm going to ask her to speak, I'm out for a while" said the emperor kissing the empress's head gently and then came out looking for Xiao Lan.

He had gone around the palace but had not found any Xiao Lan his ears caught anyone laughing out loud in the palace backyard, he said,

"Hahaha you're so weak that the future crown prince can't chase me hahaha" Xiao Lan said mocking prince Li Xian,

"If caught don't cry" prince Li Xian reminded Xiao Lan,

"No way" Xiao Lan stuck her tongue out toward the crown prince,

Hap, "Because of you" the prince Li Xian immediately tickled Xiao Lan's waist and stomach,

"For mercy hahahaha" Xiao Lan couldn't help but laugh but prince Xian even more intrigued her,

"Even though my stomach hurts hahaha" Xiao Lan said again,

"Call me a new gege I will release you" said Prince Xian still tickling Xiao Lan,

"Unless gege, I will call you gege" Xiao Lan gave up she was no longer able to resist the clumsy prince Xian, he said,

"Have you been content to mess with it?" the emperor looked at them,

"A-father" prince Xian was nervous because he had never played around until like this, whereas Xiao Lan was just being indifferent, instead,

"When you last played until you were like my son, you looked so happy and forgot about your burden for a moment as crown prince, continue if it makes you happy" the emperor patted the head of prince Li Xian, he looked towards Xiao Lan who was still indifferent to his presence he also spread his body on the right side of Xiao Lan the soldier and the servant who was there was surprised instead of playing when their emperor threw down himself on the grass but they also did not dare to remind the emperor,

"Lan'er do you know?" emperor Li had yet to finish his remark but had already cut Xiao Lan off,

"No"

The Emperor sighed trying to neutralize the annoyance that was on his body, "I haven't finished Lan'er, do you know in this palace there is no princess" said emperor Li gazing at the sky Xiao Lan who was beginning to be interested in the story of the emperor was unknowingly bringing his body closer towards the emperor. The emperor only chuckled then hugged Xiao Lan's body from the side and continued his story,

"I didn't know it was a curse or a gift, here all the empresses and concubines no one could give birth to their daughters only gave birth to sons with tremendous physical strength and this has been the case for decades maybe" the Emperor stopped his words for a moment,

"Therefore this empire could become the second strongest empire on this land" Xiao Lan looked up at Emperor Li,

"What was the first strongest empire?" tanyanya was confused,

The emperor chuckled he thought everyone knew the name of the strongest empire on this land turned out he was wrong, "The Wang Empire, Wang Empire, we did win in physical affairs but they had the emperor whose energy level was the highest of all the emperors here they also had a strong military and economic defense" Li said,

"Then the weakest empire?"

"There is no weakest empire here, after the Li empire all empires have the same power so there is no weakest empire"

"Uncle when I came here I saw a lot of olive trees growing, didn't you guys use them?"

"What is an olive?" ask emperor Li,

"Did you see him around the road leading to the palace?" ask prince Xian, please,

"Yes I saw it there"

"The trees will soon be cut down because the fruit is very bitter and no one wants to cultivate it" said Prince Xian,

"Don't" Xiao Lan said suddenly,

"I can use it, can you trust me?" tanyanya looked at them alternately,

"Of course Lanlan, you can do whatever you want while you're here, can't you?" said the prince Li Xian who was given a nod by the Li emperor,

"What if I want to destroy your harem gege?"
