Chapter 76:

Su Li glanced down at the little princess hanging from him, lost in thought.

Su Li was in the midst of self-reflection.

He felt so foolish, honestly

He only realized he could gain points from Changle, and he often felt frustrated due to lacking points. He even briefly considered involving his father-in-law in this scheme.

He had been narrow-minded. This mindset had limited his options. The systems rigid requirement for earning points involved physical contact with esteemed individuals. Su Lis initial idea was indeed correct.

After all, who could surpass Li Ers family in terms of status in the Great Tang?

Looking back, he probably underestimated Little Princess due to her young age and habitually ignored her, leading to an oversight.

He underestimated her importance!

The three-year-old Little Princess was Li Ers own daughter and his favorite. Li Ers most cherished treasureher status was unquestionably noble.

Why didnt he realize this earlier?

Su Li was curious and used an attribute detector on the Little Princess.

Name: Li Mingda

Age: 3

Power: 48

Physique: 46

Sensitivity: 53

Perception: 77

Charm: 71

Status: Respected

Beginner intimacy: 1000 points/hour.

Level 2 intimacy: 1800 points/hour.

Level 3 intimacy: 3600 points/hour.

Level 4 intimacy: 7200 points/hour.

Unbelievable Su Li was shocked by the revelation.

The speed at which points were being swiped was shockingly identical to Changles.

Truly, she was the only princess in the history of various dynasties over thousands of years to be personally raised by an emperor!

However, Su Lis brows furrowed as he noticed that the attributes of Little Princessstrength, physique, and insightwere all quite low. While her young age played a role, these attributes were still exceptionally low. In comparison, her intelligence and charm attributes were both over 70 points, which should have been the norm for her age.

Could it be due to her congenital asthma? No wonder she passed away at such a young age! Su Li thought and raised his brows further.

Nevertheless, Su Li realized that holding Changle in one hand and Little Princess in the other would cause his points to double. This dual-tasking wasnt even tiring.

Su Li began to come up with a plan. While Little Princess was still young, he could get close to her and accumulate points. It wasnt that he had ulterior motives. He wasnt a beast. But considering her young age, he could swipe points without gender concerns. Once she grew older by a year or two, her awareness of gender would increase, and Su Li would need to be more cautious to avoid raising suspicion.

Moreover, Su Li wasnt entirely focused on his own gain. There were other factors at play.

He still remembered that the Little Princess only lived to be 12 years old in history!

Nine years later, what disease did Little Princess die of? Su Li just guessed that it was a medical condition.

But no one knew exactly how.

Might another solution be needed?

That was 2 million points, which was quite expensive. However, ultimately, the cost was worth the reward. Saving Little Princess was their duty!

After pondering all these thoughts, Su Li finally had a clear understanding and felt refreshed.

Su Li didnt know that the young child in his arms watched his expressions attentively with her head tilted. From Little Princesss perspective, her brother-in-law appeared contemplative, softened his gaze towards her, and eventually seemed to recall something joyful, revealing a faint smile.

The adult world was truly complex!

Little Princess might have expressed such sentiment if she were a bit older.

Even though she was born into the royal family, she was showered with countless affections when she was born. There wasnt much difference between Little Princess and an average 3-year-old child.

Most of the time, her main tasks were eating and playing, and her favorite activities also revolved around those!

Truthfully, at Little Princesss age, she couldnt understand intricate relationships. She wouldnt get closer to Su Li because she was close to Changle.

For her, her brother-in-law was simply a name, nothing more. Her good behavior and cuteness were a result of her upbringing and politeness.

Su Lis identity as her brother-in-law held no significance in Little Princesss understanding, even compared to delicious candies.

However, in the moment of danger, the scene where her brother-in-law suddenly appeared to shield her left a deep impression on her.

Little Princess couldnt comprehend the term sense of security, but lying in her brother-in-laws arms made her feel safe.

Su Li and the others returned to the Princess Mansion an hour later. After such an incident, even the Little Princess had lost her appetite to finish her meal.

Throughout the journey, her female attendants were still in shock. Their faces remained pale even now.

Little Princess was frightened. Its best not to stay outside for too long. You should return to the palace first, Su Li instructed Little Princesss female attendants.

The attendants quickly nodded and hurriedly left with Little Princess.

Darling

Watching the carriage turn the corner, Changle still had a frightened look. Su Li affectionately patted her head and gently embraced her.

Its all over! Lets go back to the mansion. My dear, Ill comfort you!

Changle suddenly blushed, seemingly remembering something. Nonetheless, she obediently held Su Lis hand and walked inside.

On the other side, inside the palace.

Empress Zhangsun walked anxiously in front of Little Princesss chamber entrance.

Just a moment ago, a eunuch reported that Little Princess and Changle had encountered danger in the Forest Garden today. Fortunately, Consort Su Li was present, preventing a major disaster.

This news had made the usually composed Empress Zhangsun lose her composure. If the eunuch hadnt mentioned that Su Li and the others had returned to the city, she might have even left the palace to look for them.

After waiting for a while, a childs familiar, tender voice finally reached her ears. Empress Zhangsun heaved a sigh of relief.

In the distance, she saw a female attendant walking towards her, holding a palace maid. Empress Zhangsun was prepared to scold them, but when she saw the tear marks on her daughters face and her gentle, vulnerable appearance, the words of reprimand caught in her throat.

Mother!

Upon seeing Empress Zhangsun, Little Princess called out and immediately burst into tears, reaching out her arms for a hug.

After all, she was just a young child who had experienced a great fright. Seeing the person closest to her, she couldnt hold back her emotions.

Little Princesss cries were heart-wrenching, a mixture of fear and grievance evident in her small demeanor, making Empress Zhangsun feel sympathy.

Empress Zhangsun quickly took her daughter into her arms, comforting her gently with soothing words.

The attendants and maids accompanying Little Princess had already been quite shaken, and their fear was compounded.

Witnessing this scene, they couldnt hold back their emotions any longer. Instantly, cries filled the air around them.
