Chapter 20 Sending Zhang Quangui Away
"If you like it, drink more. The princess should drink too. I'll go and bring you a cup of tea first." After saying that, she poured a cup of flower tea and carried it to Li Lianhua's study on a tea tray.
"Young Master Li, you're not planning to become a miracle doctor, so don't take it so seriously. You've been reading for so long, it's time to take a break and have a cup of tea," Wu You said jokingly, placing the cup on the desk.
"How could you not know that I'm not a miracle doctor?" Li Lianhua put down her medical book, picked up her teacup, and took a sip.
"Just guessing, I'll go now while you're busy. Take care and get some rest." Wu You said and left quickly.
Watching Wu You hurriedly leave, Li Lianhua shook her head and stood up to tidy up the bookshelf.
"Eunuch Zhang, have you decided on your accommodations? Where will you stay?" Wu You sat down in the courtyard and picked up a teacup to drink tea.
“There are many of us, and we’re only staying for three months. Buying or building a house isn’t suitable. I’ve already sent someone to look around for places to rent. We’ll just rent for three months,” Zhang Quangui replied earnestly.
"It's good that you have an idea, Princess. Did you like the snacks I gave you?" Wu You looked at Zhao Ling, who was sipping her tea slowly. "Is this flower tea good?"
Zhao Ling quickly put down her teacup: "Auntie, just call me Zhao Ling, or you can call me by my childhood name, Le Yang. I don't know how to eat the things Auntie gave me. I'll eat them later. The flower tea is very delicious, I like it very much." Zhao Ling took out a chocolate from her sleeve, looking embarrassed.
"Then I'll call you Leyang from now on. Give me the things and I'll help you." Wu You took the chocolate from Leyang's hand, tore open the outer packaging, revealing the dark chocolate inside.
"This is chocolate. You probably haven't had it before. It's sweet, and I think you'll like it." He handed the chocolate to Leyang.
Leyang took the chocolate; it was dark and didn't look very appealing.
Seeing that Wu You was staring at her, she had no choice but to close her eyes and put the food in her mouth. She took a small bite, broke off a piece, and it melted in her mouth in no time. It was sweet and had never tasted anything like it before. It was so delicious that her wrinkled little face immediately relaxed.
Wu You looked at Le Yang, whose face-changing act resembled that of a Sichuan opera performer, and didn't find it funny.
After the group had drunk a few cups of tea, a palace servant who had been cleaning the room came over and bowed: "Greetings, Princess. Eunuch Zhang, the room has been cleaned. You can move the Princess's things over now."
Zhang Quangui stood up and said to the people outside the courtyard, "Bring everything in, and be careful." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the caravan, and soon guards carried boxes into the courtyard, and then followed the cleaning maids to Leyang's room.
Wu You secretly counted them; there were more than twenty boxes. Fortunately, he had the palace servants clean an extra room, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to fit all the things.
After everything was settled, Zhang Quangui stood up to take his leave: "It's getting late, and I still need to find a place to stay, so I won't disturb Your Highness any longer. I'll leave Princess Zhaoling in your care. Princess Zhaoling, please stay with your aunt. I'll come to see you another day, okay? I'll leave Tongzhu here to take care of you."
A palace maid of about fifteen or sixteen years old stepped out from the crowd and bowed: "This servant, Tongzhu, greets the princess."
Looking at this girl who would only be a high school student in modern times, Wu You couldn't help but secretly marvel at how long she had been in the palace.
"Please take care, Eunuch Zhang. There are so many of you today, it's difficult for me to entertain you all. I'll treat you another day. Once you've settled in, you can come and talk to Leyang." Wu You stood up to see them off. Leyang, also helped down from his stool by Tongzhu, saw off the large convoy: "Alright, Eunuch Zhang, please take care."
Zhang Quangui chuckled and said, "I will definitely come to visit Her Highness the Princess." With that, he led a large group of people away in a grand procession. From then on, two more people moved into their small courtyard.
