The room was pitch black.

But fortunately, Li Xuan is a cat.

Through his excellent night vision, he quickly saw the layout of the room.

The layout of the room is one living room and two bedrooms.

The place where Li Xuan entered through the window was the study room of one of the two rooms.

Across the middle of the living room, on the other side is the bedroom.

"Let's make sure we're in the wrong place."

Li Xuan walked out of the study lightly and touched the bedroom.

As soon as he entered, he smelled the smell of the eldest prince during the day, and knew that he was not in the wrong place.

But he climbed to the window anyway and saw the eldest prince who was sleeping.

Even when the eldest prince was asleep, he frowned, and his eyes under his eyelids kept moving.

"It doesn't seem like a good dream."

Li Xuan shook his head, and then began to search for it in the eldest prince's bedroom.

The furnishings in the eldest prince's room are relatively simple, in addition to the bed and wardrobe, the most conspicuous thing is a bookcase that occupies a large area.

Obviously, the study is opposite, but there are also a lot of books stored here.

Just by looking at the title of the book, you know that it is all obscure content, which makes Li Xuan dizzy when he looks at it.

He quickly took his eyes off the book and concentrated on finding where Go was.

But after walking around the eldest prince's bedroom, there was no trace.

Li Xuan knew that he might not be here, so he turned his head and went to the study on the side to look for it.

It turned out to be nothing.

"Where's the hiding?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"It's not going to be a treasure, is it?"

He felt that he had accidentally discovered the secret of the chess piece because he had taken it into his mouth.

The eldest prince should not have such quirks, and it is not very likely that he will discover the secret on the chess pieces now.

"But the question is, where is the prize he won not in his own house?"

Li Xuan was in the room of the eldest prince, looking for it several times inside and out, not to mention the chess pieces, and he didn't even find the shadow of the chessboard.

"Damn, today's stepping on the dot operation is a big failure!"

Li Xuan saw that he really couldn't find the set of Go, so he could only be reluctant to leave.

He plans to come back tomorrow during the day, and when he finds the chessboard, he will find a chance to do it.

I thought I could easily find the chessboard, but I didn't expect the eldest prince to have something and hide the chessboard so well.

But Li Xuan believes that they finally won the prize of a competition, and they will definitely not hide it all the time.

"At least I'll show it off."

Li Xuan left through the window that he had climbed into, ready to wait for a better opportunity.

……

The next day.

As soon as Li Xuan got up, he first studied the two cans of chess pieces at home.

He opened his mouth to the maximum and gestured at the chess jar, but found that he couldn't hold it at all.

"It's so big, it's so hard for my little kitten."

Li Xuan shook his head and quickly gave up this option.

He only remembered today that even if he found the chess jar of the Great Prince, how to bring the chess pieces back was still a problem.

If you bring it back in batches, it will not only be troublesome, but you will have to go back and forth several times.

Li Xuan's mouth contains a dozen chess pieces, which is the limit.

With more than 300 chess pieces, how many trips does he have to go back and forth?

And the risk of exposure is too great.

Originally, the other party didn't react, but instead gave a reminder because he stole the chess pieces, so he wanted to cry without tears.

In Li Xuan's opinion, it is best to do this quietly.

And the important thing is to collect the words on the Qi chess pieces.

Li Xuan guessed that those words were the real rewards of this month's Imperial Garden Competition.

It's just that because two people won, the reward was split into two.

And Li Xuan thought with his toes, thinking that this was Emperor Yongyuan deliberately trying to satisfy his bad taste.

He set the project as a backgammon, as long as the strength of the two is not much different, the probability of a draw in the end is very high.

Moreover, backgammon is not Go, the winning condition is a five-star match, and there are no rules such as sticking to the eye.

In other words, Emperor Yongyuan deliberately created a situation where there is a high probability of a draw in the final and two top spots.

Then deliberately split the real reward into two parts and start a real secret contest.

See who can discover the secret in the chess piece first, and then collect the other half of the text in the opponent's hand to make up the reward.

To be honest, this is a bit like picking a prince.

It can be seen from this that Emperor Yongyuan did not all regard the monthly Imperial Garden Competition as child's play.

But the more this is the case, the more Li Xuan feels that the rewards pieced together by these words must not be simple.

Therefore, he wants to get this reward for Princess Ankang, preferably on the premise of not alarming the other party.

It's just that how to steal the chess pieces silently has become a big problem at the moment.

Li Xuan took two steps forward, and the person stood up, easily picking up one of the chess jars with his two front paws.

He has no shortage of strength, even the weight of the two chess cans combined is not difficult for him.

It's just that in this way, he can only run on two hind legs.

Not only is it not fast, but it also looks funny.

And just as Li Xuan was trying, Princess Ankang walked in with a lazy waist.

She had just finished breakfast and walked around the yard again, so she found the house because she couldn't see Li Xuan.

As a result, when he saw Li Xuan "wrestling" against the chess pot, he couldn't help but be amused and laughed repeatedly.

She didn't know what Li Xuan was preparing for.

Princess Ankang took advantage of Li Xuan's inattention, and sneaked outside again, and when she came back, she had a small vegetable basket in her hand.

"Oops, it's not good to keep the chess jar like this all the time, so let's put it away."

Princess Ankang walked to Li Xuan's side with a self-muttering voice, then picked up the two chess jars and put them in the vegetable basket.

Not to mention, the size is just right.

Li Xuan's eyes lit up, and he tried to pick up the food basket, and found that it was much easier than when he held the food box before.

"That's good."

Thinking so, he looked up, only to find that Princess Ankang was staring at him with shining eyes, and her face was full of "Is it easy to use?" Is it easy to use? Expression.

Li Xuan couldn't help but glance at her speechlessly.

"Kid, did you know that instigating a cute kitten to steal is a serious crime?"

As a result, Princess Ankang didn't notice Li Xuan's questioning at all, stepped forward to compare the size of the vegetable basket, and muttered to herself: "Isn't it too big, a little inconvenient." ”

After that, she went out again and got some string back, played with the chess jar for a while, and then helped Li Xuan twice, and actually made a simple knot and put it on Li Xuan.

The knot is fixed on Li Xuan's body, and on both sides of his body are two chess pots that are also fixed, because they are close to his body, but the impact on his body is reduced.

The top of the knot holding the jar is empty, so it can be easily removed and put in.

And as long as you are careful when acting, the chess jar will not fall out, which is very convenient.

Li Xuan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at the knots on his body.

He knew that when Princess Ankang was bored, she liked to play the game of flipping the flower rope by herself.

Although there is no flower rope in the Yang Palace, there are only a few strings that I don't know what they are tied to play with her.

But Li Xuan didn't expect that Princess Ankang would be so ingenious.

The knots he wears now are very practical.

Li Xuan jumped off the table with two chess pots, ran around the room twice, and then jumped back on the table again.

The chess jar is stuffed to the brim, so it doesn't make much noise when it moves.

Coupled with Li Xuan's deliberate reduction of the range of movements, the movement can be minimized.

He tried to remove the jar again, and then put it back in.

There is no problem with this operation at all, but because the claws are inconvenient and need to be operated carefully, it also does not delay much time.

"Okay, well, it turns out that you are my best partner."

Li Xuan stared at Princess Ankang and nodded.

If you had this girl to help you when you "took" the imperial meal before, you wouldn't have to be tired and your cheeks sore every time.

Li Xuan decided, and when he went to steal the eldest prince, he put on this set of knots that Princess Ankang braided for him.

Li Xuan can also put on and take off this set of knots by himself, but there are parts that need to be knotted, and it is easier to hand them over to Princess Ankang, otherwise Li Xuan will need to work a lot of effort to wear them by himself.

After all, at this time, the cat's claw is not as flexible as the fingers of the Terrans.

Li Xuan first asked Princess Ankang to help him take off the knot, and then said hello to her and went out.

No matter how you say it, you can't go to Qingshu Hall in broad daylight to "get" chess pieces.

We'll have to wait until the evening.

Princess Ankang was also very good, and did not urge Li Xuan, but sent him out with a smile.

"This girl, looking honest, has bad water in her stomach."

Li Xuan smiled and shook his head, planning to go to Qingshu Hall to step on it.

You have to figure out where the chessboard is before you can do it at night.

Li Xuan first went to the Imperial Garden and confirmed with the cat bully that nothing had happened recently, and then he went in the direction of Qingshu Palace.

Caiyun Palace is far away from the main activities of the cats, and there are always eunuchs in and out of flowers, Li Xuan still doesn't want the cats to move there as much as possible.

Last time, the cat and the cow met those thin dogs around there, so it was better to be careful.

Li Xuan came all the way to Caiyun Palace, but before he arrived at Qingshu Palace, he met Zhao Feng halfway.

Zhao Fengzheng took a group of eunuchs in flowery clothes and didn't know where to go.

When Li Xuan saw Zhao Feng, Zhao Feng also keenly noticed his gaze and looked at him directly.

Zhao Feng's originally expressionless face bloomed with a smile the moment he saw Li Xuan.

Zhao Feng beckoned to Li Xuan from afar.

Li Xuan knew that he couldn't outrun this old man, so he didn't bother to toss with him, so he walked over obediently.

Seeing Li Xuan approaching, Zhao Feng also squatted down, stretched out his fingers and rubbed his head, and asked, "Ah Xuan, where are you going?" ”

Li Xuan's old trick was repeated, and he turned his head to bite again, but was naturally easily dodged by Zhao Feng.

"Still so naughty."

Zhao Feng shook his head helplessly.

"Meow. (You don't understand what I said.) ）”

Li Xuan replied impatiently.

Zhao Feng also heard Li Xuan's impatience, and then said: "Okay, as long as you don't go to Qingshu Palace, I can't control you." ”

"Uh......"

Li Xuan looked at his feet with a little weakness and didn't squeak.

If he didn't know how to whistle now, he would have to blow twice to relieve the awkward atmosphere at this time.

"Ugh."

Zhao Feng sighed, then pinched the back of Li Xuan's neck and hugged him into his arms.

"It's broken, it's controlled by this old man again!"

Li Xuan was once again oppressed by the invisible energy, and it was difficult to escape Zhao Feng's embrace.

"At least don't make trouble while I'm in Caiyun Palace."

"Meow, meow, meow, woo! (Old man, I'm not here to retaliate, I'm just here to get something, you misunderstood!) ）”

Li Xuan tried hard to defend himself, but he answered his previous words.

He meowed, and Zhao Feng couldn't understand it at all!

"Meow—(let go of me)—"
