Chapter 100: The Wild Beast
Hua Luo and Zhan Xing walked in and saw Zhaoyue and other maids gathered at the door.
Looking inside, there was a small gray beast in the corner of the room, strangely shaped, with slimy skin and rough pits, unspeakably ugly, lying there silently, motionless.
Zhao Yue picked up the box next to him and threw it at the little beast, but the little beast just moved, and it scared the group of maids to scream.
"What is this doing?" Hua Luo asked aloud.
When the maids saw Hua Luo coming, they shouted in a gossipy voice, "Your Highness." "Your Highness."
Darling, Zhanxing pushed aside the maids and leaned over to look, "What is this, miniature Godzilla? It's really spicy."
Zhao Yue said the reason for the incident intermittently: "When I just went to the warehouse to pick up the box, I found this thing, and as soon as it saw me, it immediately ran out from my feet, and I chased it all the way here."
"Then you don't arrest it yet." Zhan Xing said to Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue's head shook like a rattle: "No! I don't dare, I don't even know what this thing is, what if it's poisonous and bites me."
"This is a wild beast, slightly poisonous, it is very cautious, it is easy not to bite, even if it is bitten and the hand is only red and swollen, it will not kill you." Hua Luo said as she rolled up her sleeves.
"Luo, you know this thing?" Zhan Xing savored its name, "Savage Retreat Beast...... And it came from the wilderness?"
"Yes, its ancestors did come from the wilderness."
Hua Luo said as she slowly approached the little beast.
The maid in the back shouted, "Your Highness, be careful!"
Hua Luo, with a ruthless iron hand, grabbed the back of the little beast with lightning speed.
The little beast was grabbed by the back of the flower, and kept swinging its limbs and struggling.
Blossom pinched it and leaned over to the maids.
"Look, this one is still fattening."
"Ah!!h
The maids screamed in fright and scattered in all directions.
Hua Luo walked up to Zhaoyue and Zhan Xing, and continued to popularize science: "Don't look at it ugly, this guy's vitality is tenacious, and he won't die for a year without water or food."
"Also, you see that it is grayish-brown, which is especially easy to camouflage, and it is easy to blend into the environment when it hides in the jungle, and it is difficult to be discovered. And its saliva is also a holy product for beauty and beauty, every night before going to bed, put saliva on the face for half an hour, and then wash it with water, and the skin will become smooth and soft like a peeled egg for half a month."
"Really?" Zhao Yue looked at this ugly guy with some disgust, "This ...... If it weren't for the ugliness of it, I might consider taking its saliva and putting it on my face......
Hua Luo pinched the little beast, and her face was puzzled: "It's just why this thing is here, shouldn't it, Zhaoyue, you said it ran out of the warehouse?"
"Yes."
Zhao Yue nodded affirmatively.
Hua Luo raised her voice, "Who's in charge of the storeroom? Come out."
The two maids trembled and came out of the ranks.
"Your Highness, the slave maid is responsible for taking care of the treasury, but the slave maid has always been conscientious and does not dare to take it lightly, the slave maid has never seen this thing before."
"yes, the slave hasn't seen it either." Another maid said.
"Slaves and maidservants dare not neglect their duties."
"Let's go to the storeroom."
Hua Luo pondered, it was strange, she didn't believe that this thing still appeared out of thin air.
Opening the door of the warehouse, Hua Luo took a look, everything in the warehouse was fine, only the box that Yan Wujian gave her last time was opened, and the top lid fell to the ground.
Hua Luo glanced at the lid, there were traces of destruction on it, and suddenly seemed to understand something: "Could it be that this wild reclusive beast came out of the box?"
Zhan Xing walked over and checked the top cover: "It seems that it is, so the gift that Yan Gongzi gave you turned out to be this?" He's really ingenious."
"Ah Luo, what are we going to do with it?"
"Let's keep it first."
"What!"
Zhaoyue and Zhanxing spoke in unison.
"Find an iron cage and lock it up, don't worry, this thing is very easy to raise, just think of feeding it once in a while, do you see that it stays in the warehouse for so long without eating or drinking, and it can live well." Hua Luo said indifferently.
"It's not a question of whether it's good or not, Aro." Zhao Yue wrinkled her face, "This is also too ugly, I feel disgusting at a glance, you actually want to keep it, Ah Luo, you have a special aesthetic and think it is very good-looking?"
"Of course not."
While the two were talking, Zhan Xing had already brought over the appropriate iron cage.
She opened the iron cage, Hua Luo put this thing into the iron cage, and Zhan Xing hurriedly closed the cage and carried it away.
"The Savage Retreat Beast is the hero who saved a state, and I raised it with reverence."
"Huh? This thing also saves people, why don't I know." Zhaoyue was puzzled...
Hua Luo glanced at Zhaoyue: "Let you read more, you want to feed the pigs, go down and check it yourself."
"Boom...... Ah Luo, you scolded me~ Even if it's what you say, wouldn't it be nice if you just let it go."
"Release? Most people don't know what it looks like, but Kyoto is densely populated, so you're sure to meet people when you release it from here."
"Once you meet someone, there are only two kinds of fate for it, the first is that people don't know it, and seeing it look so ugly, it will be the same as you, and subconsciously think that it will hurt people, beat it to death, and cause unnecessary panic."
"Second, if someone knows it, and then understands the characteristics of the Savage Retreat, and knows the efficacy of its saliva, it will be caught and forcibly taken from it, and then it will be worse than dead."
"Oh, so that's the case, Ah Luo, why did you say that Yan Gongzi would give you this kind of thing, even a girl wouldn't like this, it's so ugly."
Flora replied, "It's easy, he thinks I'll like it, so I'll give it away."
Listening to Jun's words again, as if listening to a seat, the corners of Zhaoyue's mouth twitched.
She thought about it, but she was still a little moved: "Ah Luo, does its saliva really have such a good effect?"
"You want to try?" Hua Luo looked at Zhao Yue.
Zhaoyue touched her face: "Recently, I always feel that my skin is getting drier and drier, if it really has such a miraculous effect, I ......."
"But don't you think it's disgusting?" Hua Luo was a little helpless, in order to become beautiful, Zhaoyue really gave up.
"But if it's that powerful...... Well, forget it, I feel creepy when I think about that thing now."
Suddenly, she looked down and saw the hand that Hua Luo had just grabbed the Savage Retreat Beast.
Thinking that Hua Luo had touched the slimy body of the Savage Retreat Beast with her hand, she couldn't help but feel numb on her scalp.
「…… Ah Luo, to be honest, when I see your hand now, I think of what slimy and ugly wild reclusement beast you just grabbed with this hand, just think about it...... I see, don't hit me with this hand all this time."
"What do you mean, disgusted with me? Just now you crowded at the door to throw things and smash them, but no one dared to catch them, and if I caught them, I thought my hands were dirty?" Hua Luo forced her eyes to look at Zhaoyue.
"No, no!"
Zhao Yue hurriedly explained, "I, I just thought of that thing, and I definitely didn't mean to dislike Ah Luo."
"Hehe~"
Hua Luo sneered twice, and approached Zhaoyue step by step, an inexplicable sense of oppression made Zhaoyue retreat: "Ah Luo, you, what do you want to do."
Hua Luo turned her wrist and moved flexibly like a spider shaking its tentacles, and her tone was gloomy: "Sister Zhaoyue, have you ever heard of a saying that magic can defeat magic."
"I just grabbed the Savage Retreat Beast with my hand and you felt that it was in response, but if I touched you with this hand again, it would be equivalent to you being in indirect contact with the Savage Retreat Hand, fighting poison with poison, so wouldn't you not respond to it? see
Claws!"
"Hey! Don't come...... Yes! Ahahahaha...... Itchy...... Hahahaha........."
Female Officer Guo walked to the door and heard a burst of girl's crisp laughter.
She was full of doubts and went in to take a look, and she saw such a scene.
Hua Luo grabbed Zhaoyue's shoulder with one hand and pressed her against a pillar, and caressed half of Zhaoyue's cheek with the other.
Perhaps feeling itchy, Zhaoyue subconsciously turned her head and put Hua Luo's hand between her cheek and collarbone, laughing with tears in her eyes and trembling all over.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, ...... are you?" Female Officer Guo's voice of disbelief came.
「……」「……」
Hua Luo and Zhao Yue turned their heads in tacit agreement and saw the shocked face of Female Officer Guo.
The next moment, the two retracted their hands in tacit agreement and stood up.
Only then did Lady Guo recover from her shock and coughed: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty asked you to come over, she has something to ask you."
"What does the Queen Mother have to ask me?"
"You'll find out when you go."
"Oh."
Hua Luo had no choice but to follow Female Officer Guo to meet the empress.
The empress looked at Hua Luo and asked, "Prince, I heard that Yan Wuqian just came to your East Palace?"
"It seems that the queen mother is very well-informed."
Hua Luo said meaninglessly.
"How do you feel when you see Yan Wuji?"
"It's okay." Hua Luo replied casually.
"You didn't snub him, did you?" The empress didn't believe in Hua Luo.
"The queen mother's words are serious, how dare the sons snub him."
When this question was asked, Hua Luo was already a little uncomfortable.
Who knew that the empress continued to ask, "Where did you and Yan Wujian go just now, what did you say and what did you do?"
"The queen mother's question is too detailed."
Hua Luo finally couldn't help but turn her face.
The empress said as a matter of course, "I am your mother, is it wrong to care about your marriage?"
"How the son gets along with him is a matter between the son and him, what does it have to do with the queen mother?" Hua Luo's tone was very unkind.
The empress's face was not good, and she was obviously forbearing: "I didn't say that I wouldn't let you get along with him, so I can't really ask a word, could it be that the prince did something with him that I can't let me know?"
"Erchen said, this is Erchen's own business, which code does the queen *** count? The queen mother worries so much, if the son gets married in the future, will the queen mother still move a stool to observe the candle night in the son's cave room?" Hua Luo's face has always been not thin, and she will come when she opens her mouth to say anything.
"You're ......!"
The empress was once again so angry that she couldn't speak.
With a plop, Hua Luo knelt down, and her tone was neither humble nor arrogant: "Thank you for your concern, but it's better for the queen mother to worry less about her own affairs, if the queen mother has anything else, the son will retire."
There was a strong smell of gunpowder in the air.
"Look, this is my good daughter, who will only go toe-to-toe with me all day long! I don't ask, she has this attitude, but if the boss can fight for it, I will abolish her long ago!"
Female official Guo didn't know what to do on the side, the empress and the crown prince Hua Luo were the norm, and the smell of gunpowder came out when they chatted, and the two of them didn't have a few times to talk calmly.
Moreover, every time the empress got angry, she threatened to abolish the prince, but in the end she didn't abolish it, they were so used to it that they were numb, and they couldn't persuade them.
