Tang Dynasty: The pot is tied to the duck nest, the little rhinoceros is here!

Jiang Fan and Li Lizhi exchanged a smile and played along with the little ox.

Chengyang carefully patted the sand wall firmly, and occasionally wiped the sand off Xiao Sizi's face with a handkerchief.

At noon, they found a clean, home-style restaurant near the beach for lunch.

Little Si patted its round belly and said contentedly, "Hehe, I'm full again!"

Because it was too hot at noon, Jiang Fan didn't take them out to play any more, but instead drove them back to the villa.

The car drove out of the parking lot and merged into the traffic. The two little ones in the back seat were initially full of energy, and after a while they started talking in their baby voices.

For a moment, she curiously watched the scenery rushing past the window, but perhaps she was tired of playing.

Before long, the little ox began nodding like a chick pecking at rice.

Chengyang rubbed his eyes, leaned back in the soft chair, and slowly fell asleep.

Jiang Fan changed the car music to soft instrumental music. After parking the car at the villa, Jiang Fan unbuckled the child seat belts and each of them, including Li Lizhi, took one child in their arms.

The two little ones slept until after 3 a.m., and then Jiang Fan took them swimming and had a meal.

Even after 8 p.m., the two little ones were full of energy because they had taken a nap at noon and showed no signs of sleepiness.

"Sizi, go to sleep." Li Lizhi said to little Sizi.

"Sister, I don't want to sleep, I want to go out and play with my boyfriend~"

Xiao Sizi glanced at Jiang Fan somewhat reluctantly.

"What time is it? How can we still play? It's getting late, and it'll disturb Brother Fan's rest!"

It's getting late? Will it disturb your rest?

Jiang Fan smiled upon hearing this: "Lizhi, you're not very familiar with our local customs. Since Sizi and Chengyang don't want to sleep, I'll take the three of you to the City That Never Sleeps!"

Jiang Fan said slowly that he had never taken Xiao Sizi and the others out to play so late before, and Jiangcheng's Never-Sleeping City was very prosperous and lively, which was perfect for Princess Chang Le of the Tang Dynasty to experience.

"A city that never sleeps?"

"Yeah, it's just a tourist attraction. You'll see when you get there."

Seeing Jiang Fan's words, Li Lizhi nodded slightly: "Alright! I'll do whatever Brother Fan says."

"Mmm-hmm~ Hehe~" The little princess highly agreed with Li Lizhi's decision.

Chengyang nodded happily.

……

Summer nights are much more lively than days. After Jiang Fan drove the three princesses to the City That Never Sleeps, he found them much more lively.

Jiang Fan carried the little princess and walked with Cheng Yang on the streets of the city that never sleeps, with Li Lizhi following behind. For the first time, she felt that her two eyes were not enough.

The city at night feels completely different from the daytime. The city is full of vibrant nightlife, with lights shining everywhere.

The dazzling lights and shimmering neon lights complement each other, creating a magnificent and mesmerizing street scene.

Rows of streetlights stretched to the horizon, their destination unknown. The neon lights atop the skyscrapers gleamed in the night.

Huge, colorful screens showcase the city's prosperity and vitality.

The interplay of lights creates a beautiful picture of the night sky.

When I arrived, the streets were bustling with traffic, but now the streets of the city that never sleeps are teeming with people, and the crowds are surging like a tide.

People were either browsing shops, taking leisurely strolls, or enjoying delicious food at roadside food stalls.

They drank heartily, and laughter filled the air, creating a lively and festive atmosphere.

Jiang Fan held Xiao Sizi in one arm and Chengyang in the other. Compared to the quiet Chengyang,

The little girl, with her two milky lumps, saw so many people and kept making milky noises.

He was clearly very excited.

The two big, dark eyes reflected the colorful lights, making them appear even more lively.

Upon seeing so many people, Li Lizhi stayed close to Jiang Fan, her hand secretly grabbing the hem of his clothes without him even realizing it.

"Sizi, Chengyang, how about your brother treats you to some meat?" Jiang Fan said, looking at the two little princesses in his arms.

"Good duck, good duck!" Little Sizi didn't stand on ceremony at all. Chengyang nodded without saying a word.

At a barbecue stall, Jiang Fan found a spot and sat down, holding his little princess.

Li Lizhi sat obediently beside her, appearing somewhat reserved in the unfamiliar environment.

Jiang Fan chose to eat at this kind of place so that Li Lizhi and the two little princesses could experience the lively atmosphere even at night.

He ordered some grilled pork belly, lamb skewers, and grilled chicken wings and squid, which are popular with children.

Xiao Sizi and Chengyang would probably like the grilled corn too. And another serving of garlic crayfish.

Jiang Fan drove here. He can't drink alcohol, so he only ordered four bottles of soft drinks.

All done!

"Pork, it smells so good! It smells so good!" The little princess smelled the aroma of roasted meat.

"Young master, it's so lively here!" Chengyang's big eyes looked around.

"Mmm~"

"Brother Fan, is there no curfew here?" Li Lizhi asked, looking at the bustling crowd.

"A curfew?" Jiang Fan suddenly remembered the curfew system of the Tang Dynasty, shook his head, and said.

"We don't have a curfew here. When the weather is hot like this, it's normal to stay out until 11 or 12 at night."

"11 or 12 o'clock?" "Oh, that's... that's midnight."

"Zi Shi? That's the middle of the night!" Li Lizhi was surprised.

"Yes, playing until midnight is quite normal, and it's not uncommon for people to play all night."

Li Lizhi was even more surprised: "In the Tang Dynasty, people are not allowed to go out on the streets after 3 a.m. (the first watch of the night)." — 3 a.m. is around 8 p.m.

As we were talking, the waiter brought the skewers over and placed them on the table.

Xiao Sizi couldn't resist the aroma of the roasted meat wafting from the table, and Chengyang couldn't help but lick his lips as well.

"Honey~ Hiss~ Honey~"

Jiang Fan quickly picked up a piece of roasted meat, wiped the ash off the skewer with a napkin, and handed it to the little princess: "Here, Sizi, have a taste."

The little princess reached out to take it, but Jiang Fan said, "Brother will let you eat it; this shovel is dangerous."

The little princess nodded and opened her mouth, eagerly starting to eat the meat.

But it's never as satisfying to have someone else hold it as it is to hold it yourself; the little princess had a piece of meat in her mouth.

He couldn't bite it off for a long time, and saliva dripped down his chin onto the floor.

Jiang Fan had no choice but to hold down the little princess's head with one hand and pull the kebab backward with the other.

The little princess successfully finished her skewers, saying as she chewed, "Brother~ this is the best~"

Jiang Fan kept feeding Xiao Sizi and Chengyang, and watching the two little dumplings eat with gusto was a very enjoyable thing.

"Sizi, Chengyang, there'll be other things later, take your time eating."

Little Sizi nodded, chewing on meat, its chubby little pink cheeks twitching, looking adorable and cute.

"Young master, I understand!" Chengyang nodded very ladylike.

Jiang Fan looked at Li Lizhi: "Lizhi, eat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Fan!"

Following Jiang Fan's example, Li Lizhi first wiped the dust off the shovel with a tissue, and then ate it in small bites.
