Princess Anning did not notice it at all and replied with a grunt. “Then I’ll write to Qingqing and say I want three, but it’ll be good if she has time to come.”
After she finished speaking, she ran to the study room to write a letter.
The Empress, on the other hand, looked at the Emperor with an unpleasant expression. She elbowed him and said, “Why are you pretending in front of the child? Also, did I say I wanted to ride it?”
“Sorry, my love,” the Emperor said with a fawning smile.
After receiving Princess Anning’s letter, Jian Qingqing patted her forehead. Only then did she remember that she had not been to the palace for a long time. She was so busy that she felt dizzy.
A good relationship had to be maintained by both parties. Thus, she decided to give herself a day off and brought five bicycles into the palace.
Princess Anning did not expect Jian Qingqing to come personally. She rushed over in surprise and hugged Jian Qingqing. She said happily, “Qingqing, I thought you weren’t coming! Aren’t you very busy?”
“No matter how busy I am, I still have the time to see you,” Jian Qingqing said with a smile.
Princess Anning’s face was red from the coaxing. She rebuked, “Then who hasn’t come to see me for more than two months?”
Jian Qingqing grabbed her hand and said coyly, “I was wrong. Princess Anning, please be magnanimous and forgive me! I really won’t dare to do it again!”
Princess Anning snorted and said arrogantly, “Then you’re not allowed to do that next time. Don’t forget me no matter how busy you are.”
Jian Qingqing nodded her head and vowed, “I won’t! I’ll definitely put you first in the future and think of you every day!”
When had Princess Anning ever heard such straightforward words? She covered her face shyly. “You only know how to coax me!”
After she finished speaking, she looked at the items that the eunuchs were pushing behind her and asked curiously, “This is a bicycle?”
Jian Qingqing nodded, pushed a bicycle over, and said, “Let’s go, my Princess,
I’ll teach you how to play! Don’t be angry at me!”
Princess Anning’s anger had long been coaxed away by Jian Qingqing. She said proudly, “Alright, then I’ll let you teach me!”historical
Jian Qingqing helped her onto the bicycle and held her hand to teach her. “You sit here first, hold the handle with both hands, then step on the pedal with one foot first, and pedal the ground with the other foot..”
Princess Anning listened to her seriously, then followed her instructions. With one foot on the ground, the bicycle immediately slid out, sliding a few meters on the ground.
“Wow!” she exclaimed in surprise. “This is amazing!’
Jian Qingqing said with a smile, “Alright, you can practice this first. I’ll teach you the others later.”
Princess Anning was very interested in this. She pedaled the bicycle excitedly and had a lot of fun.
Seeing that she was already familiar with the bicycle, Jian Qingqing continued,
“Come, let’s learn the next step.”
Because it was not easy to teach her by just talking, Jian Qingqing also rode a bicycle and demonstrated to her.
“After you kick yourself forward, immediately pull your other foot back onto the pedal and keep stepping on it.”
Seeing how Jian Qingqing rode it so easily, Princess Anning was also full of confidence. She copied her and put her feet back.
However, she underestimated how difficult it was to learn the bicycle. She retracted her feet easily, but after just half a circle, she could not step on the pedal no matter how hard she tried. After a while, the bicycle immediately tilted and was about to fall. Fortunately, she immediately put down her feet to support herself before falling.
Even though Princess Anning thought that she was fine, the palace maids and nannies beside her were all scared out of their wits..
