Tiger Roars Across the Heavens presents "The Great Tang Dynasty: The Pot Master is a Duckling, and the Little Rhinoceros is Here," exclusively premiered by Cola Novels!

"Grandpa, hurry up...we're waiting to see what happens."

Chengyang urged.

"Yes, yes, Grandpa is too slow..." Little Sizi followed up in his childish voice.

Crown Prince Li Chengqian and Li Tai remained silent; they dared not urge Li Shimin.

"Alright, alright, Grandpa will start cutting the melon now!"

After showing off for a while, Li Shimin picked up the Longquan sword, wiped it with clean water, and then...

Just as I was about to make my move, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't asked how to cut the melon yet. After all, this was a melon from Baiyujing, and the way to cut it was different from that of a cold melon.

Li Shimin, somewhat embarrassed, asked, "Sizi, Chengyang, you haven't told your father how to cut it? Should we cut it horizontally? Or vertically? Or...?"

"Well……"

Everyone was speechless.

Seeing how foolish her grandfather was, Si Zi imitated Jiang Fan's actions when cutting a melon and began to direct Li Shimin.

The Longquan sword was exceptionally sharp, and Li Shimin didn't use much force before the watermelon was split in two.

The watermelon, once cut open, resembled the rosy dawn under the bright sun, its color a vibrant red, its translucent appearance making it incredibly tempting.

"It truly lives up to its name as a watermelon; the inside is completely different from a cold melon, and it looks delicious!"

Looking at the expectant expressions around him, and following Xiao Sizi's instructions, Li Shimin...

Quickly take the Longquan sword and cut the watermelon in half, dividing it into eighteen pieces.

"Alright, everyone, come and have a taste." He handed the Longquan sword to Zhang Anan.

He immediately grabbed a slice of watermelon and started walking with great enthusiasm.

He gazed tenderly at Empress Zhangsun: "Empress, the watermelon looks delicious, why don't you try some?"

Empress Zhangsun felt a warm feeling wash over her and reached out to take it.

Looking at the children around him, he said, "You should all hurry up and get it too, don't just stand there..."

As soon as the words were spoken, the palace maids quickly placed the watermelons on their respective tables.

Empress Zhangsun took a small bite and found her mouth filled with sweetness and rich juice, which was very delicious. She wanted to eat more and more.

"Is Mommy very good?" the little girl asked in her childish voice.

If she hadn't eaten before coming, she probably would have been the first one to run up and grab some food, despite her short legs.

Empress Zhangsun nodded gently, watching as the adorable little Sizi broke the watermelon in half again.

He handed the uneaten half to the little princess, saying, "Sizi, it's delicious, you should try some too..."

Little Sizi wasn't going to hold back this time. Even though her tummy was full, she could still squeeze out some room. She grabbed a watermelon and ate it with gusto. Suddenly, she felt hungry again.

"So sweet! The watermelon is so delicious!"

The little ox kept biting with its mouth, its mouth full of food.

Seeing this, Li Shimin also took a bite. "This watermelon is quite novel. It tastes sweet and cloying. It's fitting that it's called a seedless watermelon."

He boasted about it while letting out a sigh.

"Grandpa, I'm finished eating, but I still want more..." Li Tai finished his watermelon first, his eyes constantly glancing at his grandfather.

Li Shimin's lips twitched upon hearing this. He silently took out another piece and said gently, "Qingque, look how fat you've become!"

Eat less watermelon, too much is bad for your health. Just eat half of this slice! I'll save the rest for you!

After saying this, Li Shimin prepared to cut it in half, but Li Tai quickly stopped him, shaking his head vigorously: "Grandpa, it's alright, I'm very strong, I'm not afraid!"

After saying that, he quickly took the watermelon from Li Shimin's hand and proudly showed it off.

Li Shimin quickly glanced at the watermelon in his hand, then hurriedly opened his mouth and began to eat it.

"Kukuku..." Little Sizi and Princess Chengyang giggled as they watched.

Li Lizhi's lips also slightly curled He revealed a faint smile.

Empress Zhangsun glanced at Li Tai: "Qingque, eat slowly..."

Little Sizi also quietly sped up her eating.

A watermelon was cut into more than a dozen pieces. Two pieces were given to each person, and the remaining princes, princesses, and Empress Zhangsun were given one piece each.

Even Li Yuan, far away in the palace, received a watermelon. Looking at the watermelon in front of him, Li Yuan had no idea what it was.

However, Li Yuan did not respond well to the gifts sent by Li Shimin. He snorted coldly with a dark face, "I will not eat anything from Li Erlang."

He said this while angrily pushing it aside.

Although the food looked delicious, Li Yuan refused to accept Li Shimin's gift.

The palace servant who brought the goods had anticipated this and cautiously uttered a single sentence.

"This item was brought back by Princess Jinyang; it was a special gift from His Majesty to Your Majesty the Retired Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and his expression changed incredibly quickly, instantly becoming jubilant.

"You sent this to me, Si Zi? Why didn't you say so earlier? Bring it here quickly so I can taste it and see if it's good."

Li Yuan ate watermelon with a look of enjoyment: "As expected of the sweetness given by Si Zi."

"Your Majesty, please let me have a taste too," Consort Zhang pleaded.

……

After finishing the watermelon, everyone took another look at the toys that Si Zi and Cheng Yang had brought. Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, and Li Tai, the father and his three sons, clearly didn't show much interest in these women's and children's toys.

Soon, the group left one after another.

"Sizi, how's Chengyang? How's it going? Has the immortal agreed?"

Little Sizi nodded and stretched out her chubby little hand: "Big sister, big brother, we promise, we'll take you over to play tomorrow."

"Really? Chengyang!"

Li Lizhi was overjoyed, but still looked at Chengyang beside her with concern.

"What Sizi said is true, and the young master also told me! Let my sister go too," Chengyang nodded.

……

The Tang Dynasty at night.

In Princess Chang Le's palace, upon learning that she could go to Baiyujing the next day, she suddenly couldn't fall asleep.

When I close my eyes, images of various celestial realms appear in my mind from time to time, such as people walking on clouds or immortals...

She had seen Jiang Fan's photo; he was a young man.

"Sizi, last time you said you wanted me to be your brother's wife. According to Sizi, a wife is a lady. Although Sizi was joking, Li Lizhi still feels too embarrassed when she thinks about it!"

"Will the immortals not welcome me? Is it just because of Xiao Sizi and Chengyang?"

"..."

Lost in her thoughts, she couldn't sleep all night. The next day, her maid, Chunyu, slowly pushed open the door.

As soon as she entered, she saw that Li Lizhi had already woken up, which startled her.

"Your Highness has woken up so early. This servant will help Your Highness wash up right away."

As he spoke, he took out a basin of water and walked over, then suddenly looked at Li Lizhi in surprise.

"Your Highness, what happened to your face!"

Li Lizhi touched her face in confusion: "What happened to my face?"

She hurriedly walked to the mirror. Looking at herself carefully, she instantly noticed dark bags under her eyes.

Li Lizhi panicked immediately: "How could this happen? Chunyu, quickly bring the pearl powder!"

Chunyu hurriedly and carefully took out the pearl powder.

Li Lizhi hurriedly covered her dark circles with pearl powder, for today she was to meet the immortal.
