Bai Zhi'er shook her little head, touching her round belly.
"I'm full! The meat I've missed the past two days has been made up!"
This amused Bai Xilie into laughter.
Qingmei added, "Emperor, the Princess has just recovered, and the Imperial Physician said it's best to avoid meat."
Bai Xilie waved his hand, "She hasn't eaten much, it's fine. Besides, Zhi'er rarely has an appetite; nothing is more important than a full stomach."
Bai Zhi'er nodded softly in agreement, "Yes!"
Bai Xilie smiled and said, "Zhi'er, I've selected a few people to be your study companions. Once you're fully recovered, they'll enter the palace for you to choose from, how does that sound?"
"Study companions?" Bai Zhi'er was curious, "What are study companions?"
"Naturally those who accompany you in your studies, and they are around your age, so you'll have someone to chat with," Bai Xilie explained.
Throughout history, study companions for Princes and Princesses were quite common.
