Chapter 40: Letters strike back!

Li Lizhi was also happy when she saw the letter.

He quickly took the letter.

There was no writing on the envelope.

The texture of this envelope is completely different from that of the Tang Dynasty.

The little princess paid no attention to the letter and was more interested in the ice cream.

She took out the ice cream from the bag and started sharing it.

Empress Changsun took the ice cream and said, "Yes, good!"

It's not just the people here, there are also Li Shimin and his men.

"Hongxiu, the weather is hot now, please send it to His Majesty Cheng Qian and others," Empress Changsun ordered.

Li Lizhi had no appetite for the ice cream. She sat down, picked up the envelope and opened it.

Feeling that the texture of the envelope was completely different from the common envelopes in the Tang Dynasty, I couldn't help but feel a little curious.

She gently opened the envelope and took out the A4 paper inside. Her eyes were instantly attracted by the white and smooth paper.

I gently stroked the paper with my fingers and felt an unprecedented delicacy and smoothness, which amazed me.

"Mother, look at this paper..."

Li Lizhi handed the A4 paper to Empress Changsun, her eyes full of surprise. "The texture of this paper is completely different from what we usually use. It's as smooth as a mirror and as white as snow. It's really rare."

Empress Zhangsun took the paper and examined it carefully, her expression of surprise revealing, "This paper is truly extraordinary. It has a fine texture and a pure white color. It's even more exquisite than the Xuan paper we have in the palace."

Li Lizhi unfolded the letter paper, her eyes fell on the regular script printed on the paper, and she was stunned.

She had never seen such neat and uniform handwriting. Every word seemed to have been measured with a ruler. They were all the same size, with strokes of even thickness, and were arranged neatly without the slightest deviation.

"Mother, look at these words..." Li Lizhi handed the letter to Empress Changsun with disbelief in her tone.

"The handwriting is surprisingly neat. Every stroke looks like it was carved out of a mold. There's no flaw. How...how was it written?"

Empress Changsun took the letter, looked at it carefully, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

As a master of calligraphy, she has a high appreciation for the quality of handwriting.

She gently stroked the words on the paper, feeling the smooth touch, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was thinking about something.

"This handwriting... is truly extraordinary," Empress Changsun said slowly. "Every stroke is perfectly aligned, straight and level, and the structure is rigorous, without the slightest deviation."

“Even the most skilled calligraphers would find it difficult to achieve such uniformity.”

Li Lizhi nodded, her eyes full of doubt: "Mother, although the handwriting is neat, it lacks some spirit."

"Calligraphy is about vividness and energy, but this handwriting seems to be restrained. Although it is neat, it lacks vitality."

Empress Changsun smiled slightly and glanced at Li Lizhi approvingly. "You are quite right. Calligraphy is not just the form of the characters; it is also a reflection of the writer's state of mind."

"Although the handwriting is neat, it seems to have lost its soul and lacks the charm that calligraphy should have."

She paused and continued, "However, the neatness of the handwriting is truly amazing."

“If we can combine it with the dynamic nature of calligraphy, perhaps we can create a completely new way of writing.”

Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi couldn't figure it out, so they didn't bother with it.

Start reading the letter.

Such straightforwardness made Li Lizhi a little uncomfortable.

"It turns out that the young man Sizi has been talking about is named Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran!" Li Lizhi got a relatively important piece of information.

At least now I know the other person's name.

"Sizi, have you told the young master that you are a princess now?" Li Lizhi looked at the little princess eating ice cream.

The little princess looked up and said, "What's going on?"

"Little Nang-kun, how many ways~"

The little princess said truthfully.

Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi looked at each other, a little confused.

The little princess didn't say how Xiao Ran knew Li Lizhi's identity and called her "Your Highness".

"Perhaps it was guessed through Sizi. It doesn't matter. My mother and my young master are willing to share what we have."

The key is to share what we have.

"Mother, the young master is asking how to trade?" Empress Changsun pondered for a moment. "We know very little about the other side right now."

"We don't know what's going on over there, and what we know is very limited."

"We don't know what the young master accepted."

“These matters still need to be negotiated.”

"Lizhi, please write back to the young master!" Empress Changsun looked at the two little princesses who were eating ice cream with the help of a small fan and smiled.

"okay!"

Yushu brought out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Li Lizhi held the pen and pondered, the tip of the pen lightly dipped in the inkstone, the ink was as black as lacquer.

She pondered for a moment, then picked up her pen and wrote:
[I haven't met you yet, but I wish you the best! ]

The cold food you gave me is like a refreshing breeze in this sweltering summer. It tastes wonderful and is truly a wonderful way to beat the heat. I am deeply grateful.

[I heard that the young master wants to exchange what we have with him. This is a good thing.]

However, we know very little about the situation at the young master's place, and we don't know what unique things he has. I beg you to tell us in detail.

[If we can exchange what we have, what would you like the Tang Dynasty to provide?]

[Another question: I found a delicious red fruit the other day. It's sour and sweet, and delicious. What's its name? And what about the melon?]

【I sincerely hope you will write to me in writing! 】

Li Lizhi wrote the letter and put it in the envelope.

The little princess on the other side also finished her ice cream.

There are traces of ice cream on the little face.

"Sister~Ni Kuaiqi~" The little princess was even more anxious than Li Lizhi. In such hot weather, the ice cream was about to melt.

"Okay, I'll eat it right away." Li Lizhi took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the little princess's face.

"Sizi, go find the young master and give this to him."

"Hmmmm~"

The little princess was very happy with this nice job.

"Well, go ahead!" Li Lizhi wanted to get Xiao Ran's reply as soon as possible.

"Hehe~" The little princess took the envelope, skipped to the screen and went straight past it.

"Little Bag~"

After coming here a few times, for the little princess, it was like visiting the next-door neighbor.

For the little princess, this distance is indeed closer than the neighbor's house.

Xiao Ran was also waiting for Li Lizhi's reply and did not go to the supermarket.

"Sizi!"

Xiao Ran prepared a fruit plate and said, "Come and eat some fruit."

Lychees, watermelons, and cherry tomatoes are arranged very delicately.

"Hmmmm~"

"Little Bag~ This is from my sister~"

"Okay, okay!" Xiao Ran quickly took it.

The little princess picked up Ao Da Miao from the sofa and ate a piece of watermelon.

Xiao Ran turned on the cartoon and the little princess continued watching.

Xiao Ran opened the letter and was amazed when he saw Li Lizhi's greeting.

I feel like what I wrote has been attacked by someone else, it's completely not on the same level.

The words cannot be compared, and the content cannot be compared.

"I haven't met you yet, but I wish you the best!"

This is the first time I've seen this, I've never seen it before.
