A group of little eunuchs woke up like a dream, dragging the guy who had been soaking in the water for a long time and was already delirious, and ran out of the palace in a panic.

The little mouse watched the group of guys who had bullied him flee with a blank expression, without a trace of joy, picked up the water-stained willow branch from the ground, and held it in his hand in a daze.

The crown prince Liu Chan, who had been watching from the side, was obviously a little disappointed, not because he was reluctant to let the group of little eunuchs who were knocked out of the palace by Liu He, but because he felt that his new companion didn't look like a master who could play any tricks.

Liu Chan walked up to the new companion who was several years older than him, but was about the same size as him, turned around a few times, and asked with the last glimmer of hope: "Little mouse, what do you know?" ”

Perhaps because of the proximity of age, the little mouse did not face Liu He's restraint when facing Liu Chan, the new master, and said generously: "They will, slaves and maids will." ”

Liu Chan, who regarded playing as more important than anything else, suddenly had his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to ask the little mouse to show it.

The little mouse nodded expressionlessly, looked around, and finally landed on the branch of a large tree next to him.

He walked under the tree, stretched out his hand and measured the width of the tree, and looked up to measure the height.

Liu Chan pouted from the side, what's so great about climbing trees, which little eunuch next to him can't, nothing unusual.

It's not unusual to climb a tree, but it's not unusual to climb faster than a monkey.

Looking at the little mouse that climbed onto the branch in an instant, not only Liu Chan, but even Liu He on the side widened his eyes in surprise.

The little mouse glanced down at the stunned master and apprentice under the tree, and continued to climb upwards until he was close to the canopy of the tree before stopping at a bird's nest.

"Little mouse! See if there are any eggs inside! Liu Chan, whose face was blooming with joy, jumped under the tree and commanded.

"No eggs," the little mouse hesitated and held out his hand, "only ...... Only this one. ”

"Birdie!" Liu Chan slapped his face excitedly, "Quick, come down and show me!" ”

The little mouse holding the bird in his hand, the speed of coming down from the tree, obviously not as fast as the speed of climbing the tree, Liu He has always observed quietly, it is not the bird that limits the speed of the child, but the child is simply afraid of hurting the little life in the palm of his hand.

The little mouse carefully handed the bird to Liu Chan's hand, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, and from the moment he entered the palace, the child who was instilled with countless rules of etiquette understood that even if there was something he wanted to say, he couldn't say it in front of the master.

Liu Chan's attention was all focused on the little bird, and he didn't notice the subtle changes on the little mouse's face at all.

Liu He suddenly felt that Liu Chan's smirking appearance was not like the real Liu Bei he knew before, but more like the stupid fake Liu Bei that Zhuge Liang found from the people later.

"You go find a bird cage, I'm going to keep it." Liu Chan ordered without raising his head, and there was already a bit of a master's flavor in his tone.

However, the little mouse who has always behaved submissively did not follow Liu Chan's words this time, standing in place and not moving.

Liu Chan frowned and said impatiently: "Are you deaf?" ”

This attitude of treating people as inappropriate is obviously due to the little eunuchs who volunteered to be cattle and horses before, just to make the prince happy, Liu He just wanted to scold, but after thinking about it, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, stood next to him, and watched quietly.

The little mouse rubbed his hands together, was silent for a long time, and said cautiously: "In that case, it will never see its mother again." ”

Liu Chan was stunned for a moment, and looked down at the little bird in his hand, which was fledgling, with only a layer of sparse fur on its body, and it looked like it had just hatched from the egg not long ago, and it was the time when he needed to be taken care of by his mother.

"It's pitiful to be locked in a cage and not be able to fly out for the rest of your life." The little mouse mustered up his courage and added another sentence.

Liu He was a little sad, he noticed that when the little mouse said this, he subconsciously glanced at the four high walls around him.

In this life, they are all destined to be locked up in this cage called the palace, whether it is a lowly little eunuch or a prince who will have to be dressed in a yellow robe sooner or later, they will not be able to break through this strongest cage under the world.

After struggling repeatedly in his heart, Liu Chan finally handed the little bird back to the little mouse's hand, and told him seriously: "Be careful, don't hurt it." ”

The appearance of the little bird seemed to make Liu Chan regain his original heart, and the tone of his speech was no longer a commanding tone, but just the way it should be between two children of the same age.

Looking at the little bird on the branch that returned to the nest, the faces of the two children showed happy smiles.

Liu He didn't bother the child who was laughing very happily anymore, quietly turned around and left the palace.

He was very relieved that at least from today onwards, he could have a little mouse by Liu Chan's side.

The two children not only let the bird go, but also themselves, and the moment they decided to let the bird go free, how could it not be the salvation of their own lives?

It is completely different from the Tai Womb, which is full of vitality everywhere, and the more magnificent Son of Heaven's Bedroom is obviously a little more majestic, but Liu He saw this splendid hall for the first time, but he felt that there was a lingering cloud that shrouded the entire palace.

Mrs. Gan, who has become the queen of the East Palace, according to the rules of the palace, can no longer accompany the emperor every day like in the previous Yizhou Pastoral Mansion.

The reason why Liu He thinks that after the fake Liu Bei becomes the emperor, he will immediately pass the throne to the crown prince Liu Chan is also due to this, without Mrs. Gan's cover, after a long time, it will inevitably show his feet.

Although the new eunuchs and maids in the palace have never seen what the real Liu Bei looks like, whether this person is sick or born stupid is different after all.

The longer they stay in the palace, the smarter they become, unlike the original subordinates of the Yizhou Pastoral Mansion who were full of thoughts about making some money to go home and marry their daughters-in-law, the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace who are destined to die of old age in this life are dedicated to pleasing the master, but they are always hot and cold buttocks, in exchange for a noncommittal smirk, it is inevitable that they will not be suspicious.

blatantly proclaimed everywhere, they naturally didn't dare, even if they borrowed their courage again, they didn't dare to arrange their own masters, let alone the emperor.

But in the palace where the relationship is intertwined, who doesn't have one or two bosses who have to flatter and flatter, in case they chew a few words of tongue in order to invite credit, it will be a big deal.
