Chapter 54: The Fish in the Pond
Xiao Cong heard two words floating out of the mouth of the palace maid of the Tai Hospital who bandaged him, squinted his eyes, and saw that she had already got up and knelt on the ground, trembling slightly, and then looked at the arm exposed by his half-open clothes, and the two rabbit ears wrapped around the white cloth, pulled up the collar, Xiao Cong adjusted his breathing.

"Come, minion." Cheng Fangyuan didn't look at Ruowei who was kneeling on the ground, walked straight to Xiao Cong's side, and stretched out his hand to sort out the scattered robes.
As soon as he came up with the idea of looking for an opportunity to try Ruowei, Cheng Fangyuan received the news that Xiao Cong was injured, he didn't mention how he was injured, and Cheng Fangyuan didn't dare to ask, this situation is naturally not suitable for too many people to know, so he didn't announce the imperial doctor, and secretly found someone to call Ruowei from the Tai Hospital, who didn't go to the Tai Hospital for a long time, but it should always be a simple bandage and take medicine, right? Fortunately, Ruowei lived up to his expectations and was quite skilled in bandaging his wounds, but who explained to him why Ruowei was like a different person, not as flexible and clever as before, but seemed timid and afraid.
Did she do it on purpose?
Why?
"Let's go down." After serving Xiao Cong, Cheng Fangyuan asked Ruowei to leave, and when he saw her get up and salute, he called her again. "Have you been here today?"
"When I go back to the general manager, the slave has been staying in the hospital and has never left half a step." I don't know which play the chief manager sang, if she answered slightly, and at the same time buried her head lower, indeed, she just didn't want to get close to Xiao Cong before learning Xiao Xuan's purpose.
Unbeknownst to her, it would be very dangerous for her.
"Hmm." With a satisfied smile, Cheng Fangyuan knew that she really deliberately stayed away from Xiao Cong, instead of breaking her brain when she went out in the morning.
With her beauty, with a little training, it is not difficult to climb onto the dragon bed, following Xiao Cong's side for many years, how could he not understand his preferences, in recent years, under the control of the queen mother, the harem has added a lot of beauties, but Xiao Cong is not always too interested, to be honest, a faint monarch who is greedy for beauty is naturally not as good as an emperor who is dedicated to state affairs, but it has been five years since Xiao Cong was eighteen years old, the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is really anxious, and the succession can be a major event for the country!
If you have a slight heart, Cheng Fangyuan may be able to pull the thread.
It's also a good thing to get married to one more lady, after all, everyone knows that Xiao Cong doesn't like the queen and the queen.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Not long after Ruowei left, Cheng Fangyuan went to the imperial tea room, where she waited.
"Boss." Saluting, she waited for him to speak.
"Ruowei." The palace maids in the imperial tea room made tea and retreated one by one, Cheng Fangyuan picked up the cup of steaming tea, cocked his fingertips, uncovered the tea lid, brushed the tea leaves floating on the tea water, smelled the aroma, and said after a long time. "Do you want to stay in the hospital for the rest of your life?"
Ruowei was stunned, I didn't expect a play today, in order to promote her?
"Please let the chief know."
"Hehe, cunning little girl." If he saw through everything, Cheng Fangyuan laughed, looked at her, and shook his head. "Sit down, you don't get tired when you stand, and the miscellaneous family looks tired."
"If you don't dare, the chief manager is still ......" said, she saw that Cheng Fangyuan's facial expression became faster than the weather, she was still smiling just now, and suddenly changed to a serious face that was ready to train people, Ruowei hurriedly sat down, and she had heard the story of toasting and not eating and drinking.
"The harem is full of deception, be cautious, and you can also protect your wealth and glory." Cheng Fangyuan said quietly.
If you smile indifferently, you don't say anything.
In fact, she cursed in her heart, old fox! When she hasn't seen Gong Dou? wanted to dig a pit for her to jump, she just didn't jump, if Wei understood the meaning of Cheng Fangyuan's words, wanted to climb onto the dragon bed, begged him, he could help her, in the future, hello, I am good, everyone, but the key is that as long as it is a person, it can climb onto the dragon bed, and there is no lower limit to Xiao Cong's IQ when he is a person? !
"Alas, the chief manager, you also know, if it weren't for Ruowei's sister-in-law asking her brother to send the slave to the palace, the slave and maid would ......" With an idea, she blushed, looked strangely shy, and turned sideways. It's time to marry Jiro from the next village. β
"Erlang from the next village?" God came to a sentence and stunned Cheng Fangyuan.
If you smile, as if your eyes are full of spring, your fingers pinch the pleats on the long skirt, as if you think of her Erlang, gently swaying from side to side, and the girl's feelings are immediately revealed.
"Erlang asked someone to bring a letter to the slave maid, and he will always wait for the slave maid to leave the palace." This is of little practical significance, she has not yet arrived at sixteen this year, and it is nearly ten years away from the day she leaves the palace, which man is in a hurry?
But it is precisely this false love story that makes Cheng Fangyuan believe that the girl in front of him has IQ but no emotional intelligence, this kind of words only a girl in a spring dream will believe it, he is over half a hundred years old, he has already seen through the world, where can he believe in those ethereal sweet words? Being in the palace, he knew very well that he was the most ruthless emperor, and he should have laughed at it, but in an instant, he thought of himself, and Cheng Fangyuan suddenly didn't want to expose her dream.
"Do it well, maybe you can leave the palace a few years early." After clearing his throat, Cheng Fangyuan put down the tea cup in his hand.
"Thank you, Archmaster." Seeing that his expression seemed to be in a trance, Ruowei got up and made a big salute, secretly happy.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Back to Tai Hospital, Ruowei sat on the stone steps outside the north gate to bask in the sun.
Yunfeng Villa is indeed much cooler than Jinghua City, the sun is shining on the body, like the warm sun in May, warm, not hot, his head leans against the door frame, bribing Du Kang with the food he picked up, Ruowei ran out to be lazy, planning to bask in the sun, Xu didn't sleep well last night, and after a while, she squinted.
"Batu, what are you running?"
"Slow down, slow down! This king can't catch up with you, stop! β
In a daze, Ruowei heard someone shouting loudly, and suddenly fell silent, something ran extremely fast, but her steps were extremely light, and she had not yet opened her eyes, and then, there was a wet feeling on her cheeks.
"Oh my God......" For some reason, when he walked near the Tai Hospital, Batu broke free from the reins like crazy, and when the man chased after him, he saw the nearly one-meter-high hound open its big mouth, revealing its sharp canine teeth, and was about to swallow the palace maid's head in one bite.
The man was shocked, but in the next moment, he was even more surprised.
The fierce Batu actually stuck out his tongue to add to the cheeks of the palace maid, the latter opened his eyes, disgusted, and pushed Batu away, usually so arrogant, Batu actually exposed the nature of the dog's legs and then leaned over and stuck it at her feet, looking like a 'dog is good, the master loves love'.
Covering his chest, he felt that he would never be able to accept this situation - the sense of disobedience was strong!
"Oh my God, my God, my God!" Not daring to touch her cheek with her hand, Ruowei could already smell a unique smell that belonged to the dog, and the saliva was smeared on her face through its big tongue, drop by drop, dripping on the ground.
"Why are you so ......" glared at the coquettish hound viciously, Ruo slightly pulled up her sleeves to wipe her face, wanting to say why it was so annoying, but she knew in her heart that this was a way for dogs to express their love, so she had no choice but to let it go. But she didn't get angry with the hound that had been working happily yesterday, and for its owner, Ruowei didn't mind the man standing stupidly opposite, glaring angrily, she roared. "Hey!"
Still immersed in a world where 'reality is simply unacceptable', the man holds half of the reins used for hounds, looks at her, looks at it, and is shocked.
Such a large hunting dog, in the entire Jinghua City can not find the second, and even look at the entire Chengguo will not see a few people to know, the hound Batu, is the dog breed in the sacred mountain of Quliang country, born in the deep mountains, brave, fierce and aggressive, after Quliang was destroyed, this dog breed was almost extinct, and three years ago the queen mother's birthday, the blonde and blue-eyed messenger from the West accidentally found it young, and gave it to Chengguo. Specially guarded, carefully raised, there is now Batu, but it is close to one person, no one else buys it, from now on, it has bitten several eunuchs and palace maids, the people in the palace saw it from afar, so they ran away, for fear of missing an arm and a leg for a while.
"Hey, stupid?!" The tone was not good, and Ruo wiped his face slightly while looking at the man in front of him.
Half a head taller than her, full of black silk tied behind the head, a golden hairpin through the same quality auspicious cloud pattern gold crown, inlaid with a finger-sized pearl, the man is wearing the best and rare glass brocade in Chengguo, the color is soft, the texture is light, the clothes are novel and chic, with a pair of jujube red half-tube boots, look at his face carefully, the appearance is not lazy, the eyes are huge and round, the eyes are dark, the skin is fair and tender, he looked at her, dumbfounded, Ruowei thought, if he is a little fat, he can have a fight with the national treasure.
That's right, the man in front of him is the queen mother's baby youngest son - Xiao Yu, it is said that he is spoiled and domineering, lawless, nostrils facing the sky, and wants to compete with the heavenly princess, whether it is the palace people or the palace ministers, he teased him all over, but no one dared to offend him, just because not only the queen mother spoiled him, but even Xiao Cong was used to him.
Of course, there are always exceptions, and at this moment, the exception in his life is the opposite Ruowei.
"What a fool!" There was no one left and right, when Ruowei said this, she was secretly happy in her heart, she remembered how a few years before the palace, when the little kid with a slingshot laughed at her, today, she finally 'shamed' with a grudge.
"Bold!" It seemed that there were some familiar words, and Xiao Yu came to his senses. "Who are you? See Benβ"
"Who are you?" snatched the conversation, Ruowei deliberately did not let him tell his identity. "Oh, I know, you're the one with the dog, right?"
"Dog owners?" Xiao Yu was angry, who in the palace dared to talk to him like this? Moreover, is this palace maid blind and a dog breeder with a golden crown?
"You're amazing." In order not to stiffen the atmosphere, the conversation changed, and if he smiled and gave a thumbs up, there was admiration in his eyes. "It's called Batuu, right?"
Without waiting for Xiao Yu to react, Ruowei Batu wagged his tail at her, as if he could understand her.
"Batuu." Squatting down, if she touched its back slightly, her hair was soft and as black as oil, she looked up at Xiao Yu, her face full of adoration. "I heard that it is fierce, but when I saw it today, it was quite docile, you trained it so well!"
"Meek ......" was instantly distracted, Xiao Yu reached out and scratched the back of his head, repeating a word that had nothing to do with Batu.
"What does it eat?" Thinking of last night's bolognese, it seemed to like it, but she stole a mixture of chicken, pork, and beef from the imperial dining room.
"Batu likes raw beef and occasionally eats fish." Seeing the intimacy of the big traitor, Xiao Yu began to feel unhappy in his heart. "Hey, why does it like you? Is there something hidden in you? β
"I'd rather it doesn't like me that much...... muttered, if it doesn't like it that much, it won't smear her face with saliva, mentioning this, if she feels slightly uncomfortable, she is ready to take a shower and change clothes.
"Uhhh
Xiao Yu had to be shocked again, Batu, who had been raised for so many years, turned out to understand human language?!
"Man, don't be coquettish, Batu, get up." Pretend to be angry, if you point at it. "I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously."
Tumbling around, Batu sat up, rubbed his head against her calves, and begged to be touched.
"You!" Shaking his head, Xiao Yu hurriedly took a few steps back, the scene was too weird. "Why can you communicate with Batuu? Could it be that you are from Qu Liang? β
This time, she was stunned.
Saying that she is Qu Liang means that she is a spy who sneaked into the palace, Qu Liang died early, how can anyone communicate with Batu? If Xiao Yu screams and attracts the guards, she may not be convicted of treason immediately.
"Qu Liang? What Qu Liang? "Pretend to be an innocent and kind little sheep, if you blink slightly." Come, I'll tell you a secret quietly. β
Seeing her ignorance, Xiao Yu was suspicious and leaned over.
"Because I was born in the Year of the Dog, I can communicate with the dog in one direction." Ruowei saw that he was really close, and secretly said, "If she is really stupid", she is not afraid that she is really a bad person, and sighs silently. "Do you know what a one-way communication is? It means that they understand what I say, but I don't just say what they say, after all, we're not a breed. β
"I see." As if waking up from a big dream, Xiao Yu nodded.
Ruowei continued to snicker and fool Xiao Yu effortlessly.
What is flying and domineering, it seems that it is just his protective color, obviously a simple boy, put on the protective case made for him by his mother and brother, he can live freely and happily, carefree, but they forget the other side of the coin, in a high position, where will he be truly carefree? A very simple example, his best friend, named Batu.
"Let's not talk about it, I flashed."
"Flashed?"
"It means that if I leave for too long, it will be time for people to find out that I am lazy and have to go."
"Where are you on an errand?"
Ruo pointed behind him and wanted to turn around, so he grabbed his wrist.
"Let's play together, go to the island in the middle of the lake, I'll wait for you." Knowing each other for less than two quarters of an hour, he had already put her into her camp, and finally there was someone who was not afraid of Batu, and Batu liked her.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
About Mo You, the island in the middle of the lake on the north side of Yunfeng Villa.
"Why does Batu love fish?" Xiao Yu and Ruowei were sitting side by side, he was fishing, and Batu was walking back and forth on the shore, so excited. "Aren't you afraid of fish bones stuck in your throat?"
"This guy is lazy, he has to pick a thorn before he will eat it."
"Uncle Batuu."
"Haha." Xiao Yu smiled heartily, and secretly glanced at Ruowei, fortunately, she didn't know her identity, otherwise she wouldn't have said these interesting words, the people around her, either extremely afraid of him, or tried their best to flatter him, when alone, Xiao Yu would always feel unusually alone, and could only be in the middle of the night when he couldn't sleep, hugging Batu's neck, looking at the dark sky together, although he could go to Xiao Cong and the queen mother, but as he grew up, he realized that he could no longer be the same as before.
"Where are you going?" Ruowei got up, and he immediately grabbed her wrist, worried that she was a meteor in the night sky and would disappear in an instant.
"Eh...... I want to pee. For a moment, she forgot how to express herself when she went to the bathroom.
