Nine

The little boy couldn't hear Xu You's heart, and continued to "meow" for a long time, and "meow" for a short time, Xu You was dead, jumped on him, retracted his sharp claws, and touched his red and swollen little face with a pink soft cushion.

It hurts! Obviously not much older than Xiao Shizi, he is also a cute child, but he has such a difficult time.

"Meow, why are you here alone?" The little boy whispered while giving Xu You a smooth hair: "I heard that there are snakes in the forest, and there are eagles that can catch cats, are you afraid of ......?"

No way! Xu You's eyes immediately widened, her eyes were originally round, and she suddenly looked frightened, becoming more and more cute. The little boy laughed out loud, and then he was afraid that Xu You would be angry, so he quickly covered his mouth and endured it, his little face was red, and he whispered comfort in his mouth: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

After he said that, he felt a little incredible, tilted his head and looked at Xu Yu curiously, his big eyes were dark, "Meow, can you understand me?" ”

Xu You wagged her tail and tapped lightly on his arm, she actually wanted to nod at him, but she felt that it seemed too weird, this little guy would not be too frightened to throw her, and then ran in a panic to complain that she was a monster.

"Really...... I really understand. The little boy's eyes were as round as Xu You's, dumbfounded, and he looked very cute. Xu You couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch his little face, but he still didn't do it after all. The wound on the child's face is not light.

The little boy was both excited and nervous about the sudden discovery of this new world, and he was a little incredulous, so he tried a few more times, such as "Meow, if you can understand, scream." "Then you wag your tail again" and so on, Xu Yu patiently played with him. In front of children, she is always more patient.

It's afternoon in a flash, little boy, no, Xu You now knows that his name is Shen Rong, and Shen Rong has to go back to work. He is now helping in the kitchen, because he is young, he can't do anything else, only help to light the fire and choose vegetables, and now he has no monthly money.

"When I am older, I will go and ask the steward to let me go to work in the Zhuangzi, where I have 200 wen a month, and I can save a few more months to get a good doctor for my mother." Shen Rong counted with a serious face: "I don't spend money on food and accommodation in the house, and it's enough to save for half a year." ”

"Meow, I'll go back, and I'll come to see you again tomorrow." Shen Rong grinned at her, waved vigorously, and then hurried out of the forest.

Xu You's heart was sour, watching his figure disappear at the entrance of the garden in a hurry, thinking about it, and quietly following him.

Although it was not yet dark, the kitchen was already busy. Mama Li was choosing vegetables in the house, and when she saw Shen Rong coming in, she quietly beckoned to him. Shen Rong understood, hurriedly paced over, and called in a low voice, "Mother Li." ”

"You have a fight on your face?" Mama Li's husband is the chauffeur of Lord Rui, so he is still a little decent among the subordinates. She was soft-hearted, and when she saw that Shen Rong was bullied at a young age, she always stood up to help him speak, and the people in the kitchen saw that Mother Li was protecting him, and looking at her face, they treated Shen Rong kindly, only the fifth child relied on himself to be a distant relative of Concubine Ning Shu and did not sell Mother Li's account, and scolded Shen Rong from time to time, and sometimes had to do it. Therefore, as soon as Mama Li saw the injury on Shen Rong's face, she knew that it was Lao Wudong's hand.

Shen Rong lowered his head a little uncomfortably and didn't speak. Seeing this, Li's mother felt more and more pitiful for him, said "You wait", and then got up and went to the house. After a while, she took a small white porcelain bottle in her hand and stuffed it to Shen Rong, and said, "This is the gold sore medicine given by your Uncle Hong last time when he fell and injured the prince, and some of it has not been wiped off, you can take it back and use it." ”

Shen Rong hurriedly excused himself, "This ...... This can't be done, this ...... It's very expensive. ”

Mother Li deliberately said with a straight face: "If you say it, I'll give it to you, don't push it." It's just a bottle of medicine, what am I hiding it for, are I still looking forward to getting hurt next time? ”

Shen Rong suddenly didn't know how to reply, hesitated for a long time, and finally put the medicine bottle into his arms, and thanked Mama Li earnestly. Mother Li smiled and whispered: "You should be clever in the future and avoid him." ”

He ...... He always called me. Shen Rong muttered quietly, a look of embarrassment and fear on his face.

"What he asks you to do in the future, you just say that I asked you to help me do things, and I'm busy." Li's mother taught him in a whisper, "The fifth child is a bully who is afraid of the soft and the hard, if you are powerful, he will not dare to provoke you." Having said that, Mama Li knew very well in her heart that Shen Rong was young and helpless in the house, no matter how tough he was, it was just a showmanship, how could the fifth child take him in his eyes, "Anyway, you be careful." She admonished again.

Sure enough, it's that bastard old thing!

Xu You squatted on the roof beam, heard the conversation between Li Ma and Shen Rong clearly, and was very angry in his heart. She wanted to vent her anger for Shen Rong, but after thinking about it, she couldn't do anything at all. If she was still a person, she could have secretly put that bastard old thing in a sack and beat it up, but now, let alone beating people, she couldn't even lift a sack.

Or, while the old thing isn't paying attention, jump over and annoy him in the face? But if you miss and get caught...... I'm afraid her life will not be guaranteed. Although she has Zhao Cheng's support, she can't always follow him 24 hours a day, there are always times when she is alone, that old five, at first glance, is a ruthless person, Xu You does not doubt that he will secretly kill him.

Xu You has been thinking about this on the way back to Liyuan, and his head has grown bigger when he thinks about it.

In fact, she has a lot of ways to clean up the old five, and it is not even difficult to kick him out of the house, after all, no one will be wary of a cat - it gives her too many opportunities to frame him. It's just that for Xu You, she still has a scale in her heart, although the old five are bad, Xu You can't wait to beat him up, but that's it.

Until dinner, Princess Rui and her two children did not come back, and Prince Rui did not return to the house, this is the first time in the palace. The people in the house began to discuss, and Xu You also had a faint premonition of bad feelings.

"Is there something going on in the palace?"

"Yes, seeing that it's getting dark, the palace gate is about to be locked......"

The little maids in Liyuan got together and whispered, even Xue Fei was a little nervous, and instead of hiding in the house to embroider, she came out to inquire about the news.

What will happen? There is a queen mother in the palace! Xu You kept comforting himself that Prince Rui and the current emperor are brothers who are close relatives, and they are protected by the Queen Mother, so there must be nothing wrong! But she was still uneasy, and she walked around the house, her tail pressed low, her ears pricked up, and she listened carefully to the voices of the maids outside.

Until the sky was completely dark, Zhao Chengjin and they still did not return home. Steward Xu ordered the courtyard to be sealed to prevent people from walking around, and the air pressure in the house suddenly dropped.

“…… I heard that the prince had an accident in the palace......"

Xu You's ears twitched, and he quickly rushed out of the half-open window, his round eyes staring at the two people who were hiding behind the rockery and talking. One is Steward Xu, and the other is Mama Su next to Princess Rui with a dark face.

Mama Su's face changed immediately, her body trembled slightly, and her voice trembled, "The world ...... The prince ...... What's wrong? ”

Steward Xu shook his head lightly and said with a bitter face: "I don't know, I just heard that the palace urgently invited Imperial Doctor Liu into the palace, and there has been no news since then." ”

So...... What does this mean is that Imperial Doctor Liu entered the palace to see Zhao Chengjin? He was still alive when he went out early in the morning, why did he suddenly ......

Xu You suddenly had a feeling that the sky was about to fall, and the kid talked to her happily before leaving, and promised her with a serious face that he would take her into the palace next time, why did he suddenly ...... Sick? There is always a joke on TV that the palace is full of murderous machines, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be crushed, is Zhao Chengjin also falling for someone else's way?

He...... Can you still come back?

Will the boy who always blinks and loves to pretend to be a little adult come back?

Xu You's heart was heavy, she stayed in the house for a while and decided to go to the palace to find him, she had to go to see the child who had protected her for so long, the cute little ghost who smiled all day long, if something really happened to him, she always had to see him the last side.

As soon as she made her decision, she immediately put it into action.

There was a curfew in the capital as soon as it passed, there was no one on the streets, and there was silence all around. Because it was the middle of the month, the moon was as round as a big baked cake, illuminating the entire capital bathed in a faint glow, and Xu You spread his legs and ran all the way.

She overestimated her physical strength a little, and after only running for about ten minutes, she was a little out of breath, her front legs were weak, and she fell to the ground with a grunt and rolled several times......

Since following Zhao Chengjin to mix, Xu You eats and drinks spicy food every day, and it didn't take long for him to grow into the appearance of his current fat shoulders and round waist, and his actions were not particularly neat, this fall made her whole person stunned, and she sat on the ground for half a minute before she came to her senses, shook her head and shook her hair, and finally got up, and suddenly heard a sound of breaking wind overhead.

Dangerous!

Probably cats always have an instinctive vigilance against danger, so Xu You immediately sensed that something was wrong, and subconsciously rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding the claws that hit above his head.

She rolled around on the ground a few times, flicked her claws, and grabbed a few feathers. The big bird overhead screamed and flapped its wings and hid on a high place.

The danger is not gone. Xu You arched his back and stared vigilantly at the big bird hovering in mid-air.

Is it an eagle?

Probably not! Otherwise, where would she still be alive at this time.

The big bird still refused to leave, flying above Xu You's head, mung bean eyes staring at her fiercely, ready to find an opportunity to take revenge.

She's so reduced to the point that she can be bullied by even a bird! Xu You felt the green tendons on his head jumping, even though those things were all hidden in the thick cat hair. She was helpless, had a headache, and was more of a deep sadness. If the big bird refused to leave, would she just spend the night with it? It's also too ......

Xu You was still secretly sighing, and suddenly heard a clear whistling sound in the distance, and her face suddenly changed - of course, if you could see her face through the dense cat hair.

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and she couldn't deal with a bird, and there was still one, which simply didn't give her a way to live! Xu You immediately made a decision, spread his hooves and turned around and fled......

Run! Come on!

Turn left ahead!

Climb trees!

Jump!

Ahh

Xu You was like a panicked and clueless mouse, scurrying around the alleys of the capital. The two big birds above her seemed to be deliberately teasing her, striking back and forth for a while, and deliberately letting her go for a while, Xu You felt that even if she could escape the attack of these two bad birds, I was afraid that she would have to die of exhaustion on the road at the worst.

No, she still has to go into the palace to see Xiao Shizi.

Xu You wanted to ...... "bang-" lyrically while running wildly. She didn't notice it for a while, she hit the wall, her head was suddenly dizzy, and the big bird in the sky took the opportunity to pounce, Xu You "Whoa-" made a strange cry and rolled on the spot......

Huh-

Didn't get scratched by the claws of the big bird? Xu You opened her eyes and looked around curiously - God forbid, she actually rolled into a dog hole!

This dog hole is not big, and it has not been drilled by a dog for a long time, and there is a thick pile of soil around it, and the hole is getting smaller and smaller, just enough for her to get into, and the other side of the hole is a dense and lush shrub, densely blocking the exit, and the two big birds fluttered their wings and watched for a long time, and finally did not find a path to get in.

Xu You didn't dare to look outside again, so he only pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and waited for a long time, but he didn't see any movement outside, so he cautiously poked out half of his head.

Luckily, the two big birds were finally gone.

At the same time, the question arises - where exactly is she now?
