At midnight in early spring, the wind is still very cool. I curled up in a ball, struggling to resist the surging sleepiness.

I vaguely heard the sound of rustling, and the moment I opened my eyes, I realized when I had closed them.

I looked forward, and at one glance, my whole body jumped up like a spring.

That tiger, unknowingly, has already walked up to me!

The reason why it didn't attack me before was probably because it was too full to move, and now, it's not necessarily because of hunger when it's approaching me. Most likely, it is because of the great psychological enjoyment and self-satisfaction it obtains in the process of preying on donkeys.

It's like a cat likes to deliberately put the mouse it catches, catch it a second time, and then put it back and catch it again...... In this way, you can get the fun and pleasure of catching~ feeling.

Therefore, this tiger may not eat me if it bites me, but it likes the feeling of predation and conquest, and I will not be able to escape tonight.

A sudden roar of the tiger startled the birds in the garden, but I had no wings and could only watch it pounce on me......

Death came so fast that I didn't have time to think about anything, so I closed my eyes tightly, hoping that the process wouldn't be too painful.

One second, two seconds......

After a while, I didn't wait for the fatal blow, and I had the courage to open my eyes.

There was a blinding light in front of me, and I was dizzy.

It took me a few seconds to get used to it, and then I could see that it was a torch in front of me. Behind the firelight was the tiger's jealous eyes, which wandered unwillingly, but did not dare to move forward for fear of the fire.

"Take it." A voice came from behind me.

I was so scared that I realized and looked back.

Standing outside the cage behind me was a eunuch with a striking hooked nose, a man I had never seen before.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you......" Tears unconsciously filled my eyes, I couldn't describe my feelings, the only thing I could do was to keep saying thanks.

He handed me the torch, nodded, and turned to leave.

"Wait!" I hurriedly stopped him, "The benefactor saved my life, and I don't know who the benefactor is?" ”

He paused in his footsteps, but said nothing, and continued walking.

I knew he didn't want to say it, but I still didn't want to give up the last possibility, and continued to shout: "Please, tell me, I swear to keep it in my heart, benefactor!" ”

Seeing that I was so persistent, he may have relented, but finally stopped, still with his back to me, and said, "I am not your benefactor, I am just sent by others." My family is ...... The master said that it was a pity that a wise man died like this, so he sent me. ”

He walked a few more steps and disappeared into the night, leaving only a stunned me, a burning torch and an unwilling tiger.

In the second half of the night, the tiger finally couldn't stay up and couldn't sleep, and let out a rumbling snoring sound. And I was so energetic that I only held the torch and pondered the words of the palace man just now.

"My king...... The master said that it was a pity that a wise man died like this, so he sent me. ”

There was a small pause when he temporarily changed his words, if I guessed correctly, the master he said was a certain prince, and the prince who participated in this matter, according to the speculation of the two little palace maids, was King Mu.

If it was him, then this person was strange enough, first helping the prince win me, and then sending someone to save me.

The torch burned until dawn, and I couldn't help but be amazed when I looked at the ground, I didn't know what kind of material the torch was made of, and the ashes fell to the ground only a shallow layer, and when the wind blew, it was taken away, leaving no trace.

I can't help but sigh that this prince is really clever! Both do things and clear the relationship without a trace. But even if it weren't, I wouldn't betray him, no matter what his purpose was, but he saved my life.

As soon as the day dawned, the outside of the cage was full of palace people, and they pointed at me and talked about it, just because I was very different from what they expected, and in their imagination I should be as bloody as a donkey on the ground.

The news soon reached the ears of the prince, and he sent for me to be taken back to his study.

In the study, it is quiet and quiet, and the incense is wafting.

It's just that the prince is not focusing on books, but me. He circled around me several times, still unable to figure it out, frowning and asking me, "Why are you not dead, how is it possible?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, the tiger may have eaten the donkey and was full, so he didn't eat the slave and maid." I said.

"Shit! That thing is cheap, if you get a bargain, you will have to bite you to death if you don't eat it! He glared at me with fierce and suspicious eyes: "What a fucking weird......"

I didn't speak, but I was calm.

He suddenly approached, glared into my eyes and asked, "What's your name?" ”

My heart trembled, didn't this guy come up with some perverted idea and kill me.

I was so nervous that I forgot what shampoo I was called.

Oh! Yeah!

"Back to Your Highness, Qingyang."

He immediately frowned and scolded: "Which stupid cock got up, it's not smooth at all!" Changed it! ”

I have a sense of confusion when I hear this.,Stupid~Dick!? I've heard my second-hand friend say silly ~ dick is a crepe word, with a long history. I didn't expect it to be true!

This prince scolds well! I wonder how the old emperor felt when he heard it?

"Don't you like to ride donkeys, so you'll be called a little donkey in the future!"

Forehead...... I'm a hundred speechless, it's terrible to be uneducated! This moment I suddenly cherished my shampoo name a little.

I hurriedly told the truth: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this is not very good......"

"Huh?" He couldn't hear the words, and his face immediately darkened.

I hurriedly continued: "Although the name Qingyang is not pleasant, it is the name of the slave and maid given by the emperor himself when he selected and served His Royal Highness, and it is also the emperor's heart......"

He pursed his lips when he heard this, his face still did not ease, and he said after a long time: "Father likes to do this...... That's it, that's it! Bengong didn't bother to care. The tone was somewhat audible.

It seems that the problem between father and son is not small, the son is a noble prince in front of him, and a perverted hooligan in the back; And Lao Tzu knows his son's virtue well, but he can only do useless superficial work and still recognize his status as a prince.

The brain circuits of the ancients may not be the same as ours and cannot be understood.

A eunuch next to him seemed to have been with the prince for a long time, and then said with a bright eye: "This is enough to see that the emperor attaches great importance to His Royal Highness, and this is a blessing that others can't ask for." The emperor attaches great importance to His Royal Highness like this, not because he wants to hand over the great power of the country to His Royal Highness in the future, and then His Royal Highness will be able to show his strength. ”

Playing hard? I sneered in my heart, if I really wait until the day he takes power, I am afraid that the only thing to show is his fists and feet.

However, this eunuch is not simple, these words are subtle and skillful, and the blueprint of the prince becoming the emperor is extremely beautiful, and the underlying meaning is that you can endure it for the time being, and you can do whatever you want when you become an emperor in the future.

I raised my eyes to look at the eunuch, with a triangular face, prominent cheekbones, and an improper gaze, which looked like a traitor, but it may also be my subjective assumption.

The prince really listened to the eunuch's words, pondered for a while, and finally nodded slightly, and his face quickly returned to normal as soon as he was in a good mood. When he turned around and saw me, his eyes were fixed......
