Later, in order to apologize to the Seventh Emperor, the Eighth Prince specially asked people to find a quiet restaurant, and then took the top floor down.

The Eighth Prince invited a treat, and after the Seventh Princesses ate some delicious belly, her mood changed slightly.

After the Seven Princesses became interested, they looked at the starry sky outside the window and told everyone how beautiful the stars in the sky were.

What is the name of each star, and what is the meaning of the connection, the one that the Seven Princesses said is called a gushing endlessly.

Li Xuan listened to it for a while and found that these seven princesses really liked stargazing.

It seems that among the royal heirs, not all of them care so much about the throne.

There are also people like the Five Princes and the Seven Princesses, who love other things, and even avoid the throne.

Li Xuan can now understand a little why he hadn't seen these two appear in the previous trials of the Imperial Garden.

If it weren't for the opportunity to leave the palace this time, I'm afraid the two of them would still nest in their own palace, studying their favorite knowledge.

From this point of view, being born to be a prince and princess is not a perfect thing.

On the last day they left the palace, it came to an end in the starry sky and the explanation of the Seven Princesses.

……

Early the next morning.

Xingqing Palace prepared the carriage back to the palace early.

The princes and princesses who are still outside the palace, even if they are still reluctant to fall in love with the palace, can only embark on the return journey back to the palace.

The three little ones are naturally part of this.

They silently looked at the scenery outside the carriage and couldn't help but think of the experience of these seven days.

I have to say that compared to life in the palace, it is indeed more exciting outside.

All kinds of people and all kinds of things made the three little ones experience a lot this time.

The huge imperial city was getting closer and closer, until they passed through the city gate, stepped into the imperial city, and then returned to the west palace.

As soon as I returned to the palace, the feeling of coldness could be clearly felt.

Li Xuan couldn't help but look back at the gate of the Imperial City that was slowly closing.

At this time, he couldn't help but think about what kind of mood a person would feel when he stepped into the palace if he had been living outside the palace.

Li Xuan has lived in the palace since he was born in this life, so he can't imagine such a feeling.

This place, where the power and wealth of the entire Daxing dynasty was gathered, did not seem to be so attractive to him.

Li Xuan turned his head to look at Princess Ankang and Yu'er, who were also a little melancholy like himself, and the next moment, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing his small teeth on one side.

"As long as they're there, no matter where they are, it's pretty much the same."

Li Xuan immediately meowed, hit Princess Ankang's little belly with his head, and rubbed it around.

"Ah Xuan, are you happy to go home?"

"It's so big, and it's still so coquettish."

"It's really a coquettish kitten who has a good life."

Princess Ankang and Yu'er were both attracted to Li Xuan's attention, and two pairs of small hands restlessly touched his body, and after a while, the carriage was filled with silver bell-like laughter.

Returning to Jingyang Palace after a seven-day absence, the three little ones couldn't help but feel a little like a world away.

Although this is a cold palace, the familiar feeling brings them a reassuring peace.

Maybe this is the so-called golden nest and silver nest, which are not as good as their own kennels.

The eunuch in flower, who had been with him for seven days, said goodbye and left after sending the three little ones back to Jingyang Palace.

"Your Highness, you and Ah Xuan will sit outside for a while, and I'll go and clean up the room."

There has been no one living in Jingyang Palace for seven days, and a lot of dust has fallen here.

So Yu'er plans to clean up first, and then continue to live in.

"Sister Yu'er, I'll help too."

"I'm staying anyway."

Princess Ankang stood up from her wheelchair as she spoke, twisted her waist, and then stretched her stiff body.

She's been sitting in a wheelchair for the past few days, but it's very uncomfortable for her.

In the past, when she only stayed in Jingyang Palace, she could still move at will, and it would not be a problem to run around the yard with her head turned upside down.

But outside, it's a different story.

Because she had a lot of scruples, she had to continue to sit in a wheelchair, pretending to be very weak.

Those who have experience will surely know that faking illness is not an easy thing to do, especially if it is long-term.

There are even times when you pretend to be sick for a long time, and you may really start to feel unwell.

"Your Highness, I can come by myself."

Yu'er wanted to persuade Princess Ankang to sit down and rest, but they had accumulated a lot of tiredness after running around outside the palace in the past few days.

Although I took a hot bath in the middle of the building and had a good rest, it was difficult to wash away all the tiredness of the seven days.

But Princess Ankang had already taken action at this time, and she was willing to listen to Yu'er's persuasion and help out as much as she could.

Seeing that the two of them were so interested, Li Xuan couldn't help yawning, stretched a big lazy waist on the table, and prepared to take advantage of the sunny day today to squint on the table for a while.

But then he remembered something again, and turned his head to look at a place in the courtyard.

"No, I don't feel like there's something missing."

Li Xuan couldn't help but tilt his head, thinking about what was missing.

"Hey, where's the golden pig?"

Only then did Li Xuan realize that the steaming water tank that had always been steaming in the yard had completely stopped, and there was no movement quietly.

He quickly jumped on the water tank, lifted the lid and looked inside, only to find that the water tank was empty, and the water and the golden pig in the tank were all gone.

Finding out about this, Li Xuan's throat immediately began to scream, and he meowed endlessly.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er were immediately attracted by the cry.

"Ah Xuan, what's wrong with you?"

"Is something going on? Why is it so urgent? ”

The two girls knew that Li Xuan was naughty on weekdays, but they wouldn't make such anxious screams for no reason.

They quickly put down what they were doing and went to the courtyard to check.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er saw Li Xuan standing on top of the water tank and screaming anxiously, and immediately realized what was happening.

Yu'er, in particular, seemed to have thought of something bad, and hurriedly trotted over, and hurriedly asked:

"Ah Xuan, is there something wrong with the golden pig?"

"It can't be that the water is boiling dry, is it?"

Yu'er was worried about this when she was outside the palace before, but she didn't expect it to really happen.

In fact, when the three little ones just returned to Jingyang Palace just now, no one remembered that there was still a golden pig waiting to be taken care of at home.

If Li Xuan hadn't been the first to notice that something was wrong in the yard, they wouldn't have reacted to the fact that the golden pig was gone.

In Li Xuan's eager shouting, the three little ones gathered around the water tank.

The three small round heads looked into the inside of the water tank and found that it was empty, except for a small black scorch mark at the bottom of the water tank.

Looking at that silhouette, it is very similar to the size of the golden pig.

"Golden Pig isn't going to burn himself to ashes, is he?"

Li Xuan blinked his eyes and couldn't help but think so.

He had heard Mr. Shang say before that the Golden Pig's hometown was in a place called the Endless Sea of Fire.

Therefore, Li Xuan naturally felt that the golden pig could live in the fire, and it should not be a big deal without water.

But now it seems that he has some thoughts.

The endless sea of fire that Mr. Shang is talking about may not be a place on fire.

Thinking of such a possibility, Li Xuan couldn't help but start to mourn for the golden pig in his heart.

"Poor big fellow, did you burn yourself to death?"

"What a stupid roasted fish."

Li Xuan looked at the pitch-black scorch marks at the bottom of the water tank, and thought that this was the last trace of the golden pig left in the world.

Obviously, Princess Ankang and Yu'er also thought of such a possibility, and suddenly looked at each other with some uneasiness.

"Sister Yu'er, you said that the golden pig will not be ......"

Yu'er swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a grunt, a little unable to believe the facts in front of her.

After a while, Yu'er said with a crying voice:

"Golden Pig!"

"It's my sister who is sorry for you-"

"Woo woo woo ......"

Yu'er wiped her tears and said very sadly.

Although they didn't get along for a long time, the golden pig brought a lot of convenience to Jingyang Palace.

Twelve hours of uninterrupted hot water, anyone who has used it knows how comfortable it is.

But now it's gone, it's all gone.

In the future, if there is no golden pig, Yu'er will have to add firewood to boil hot water by herself, not to mention the trouble, and it is very time-consuming.

Thinking of this, Yu'er couldn't help but cry even more sadly.

Princess Ankang gently patted Yu'er on the shoulder and comforted her:

"Sister Yu'er, the fish can't be resurrected after death, you better mourn and change."

The atmosphere in Jingyang Palace couldn't help but be dull, occasionally accompanied by Yu'er's soft sobs.

Li Xuan also didn't expect that the golden pig he finally caught in the Sun Moon Yin Yang Lake would be gone.

"It's fate."

"Golden pig, you can't burn like this in the next life."

Li Xuan shook his head and looked up to the sky with emotion.

But at this time, there was a knock on the door of Jingyang Palace.

Yu'er immediately wiped her tears, collected her grief, and then walked towards the door to see who was coming to visit.

The three little front feet have just come back, and someone on the back foot has come to visit Jingyang Palace, and I don't know who is so anxious, what is the matter?

Li Xuan and Princess Ankang silently closed the lid of the water tank, hoping that Yu'er would not think of things and fish in the future, and think of more sad things.

And after opening the door, Yu'er saw the person who came clearly, and at the same time was surprised, she immediately saluted respectfully:

"Manager Zhao, it turned out to be you."

"Are you asking to see the princess?"

The person who came was Zhao Feng, and he was not alone, and there were many palace maids behind him.

Zhao Feng nodded, and then said:

"I know that His Royal Highness just came back today, and there is no one living in Jingyang Palace these days, so I need to clean it up, so I specially brought someone to help."

Zhao Feng said with a smile, and then after he saw Yu'er's face clearly, he frowned, and couldn't help asking:

"Yu'er, but what happened?"

With Zhao Feng's eyesight, he could naturally immediately see that Yu'er had just cried not long ago.

Zhao Feng has been doing his best to teach Yu'er's martial arts in the past few months, and he has long regarded Yu'er as his own, so he naturally wants to find out what grievances she has suffered.

And Zhao Feng is also very aware of the feelings between the three little ones, and knows that there will be no conflicts between them on weekdays.

Zhao Feng couldn't help but think about it, thinking that the three little ones had suffered some grievances outside the palace.

"It's nothing, Mr. Zhao."

"Yu'er will take you to meet His Highness first."

Yu'er was embarrassed to talk about the golden pig in front of so many people, and planned to wait for a while when there were fewer people, and then talk to Zhao Feng in detail.

Zhao Feng didn't continue to ask, just nodded lightly.

Zhao Feng followed Yu'er to meet Princess Ankang, and then explained his intention.

In this regard, the three little ones naturally welcomed the helpers brought by Zhao Feng.

Otherwise, their Jingyang Palace is really not small, and if they only rely on three small ones to clean up, I'm afraid it will take a whole day.

After getting the consent of Princess Ankang, Zhao Feng immediately sent the palace maids to start cleaning up Jingyang Palace.

These palace maids are all good workers brought by Zhao Feng, and they clean up the hygiene of Jingyang Palace, which can be described as clean and neat.

Coupled with their abundant manpower, Jingyang Palace began to clean up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And the three little ones and Zhao Feng were sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting leisurely.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, they told Zhao Feng the bad news of the golden pig.

When Zhao Feng heard about this, he laughed out loud without humanity.

"Your Highness, the golden pig is well raised in my internal affairs office."

"It's you guys overthinking."

After Zhao Feng laughed, he explained the cause and effect.

It turned out that a few days ago, the golden pig really boiled the water in the water tank.

After the guy boiled all the water in the tank, he splashed around at the bottom of the tank, but as it continued to generate heat, it gradually began to paste the tank.

Although the three little ones were not in Jingyang Palace a few days ago, the two eunuchs in flowery clothes who were in charge of standing guard at the gate of Jingyang Palace were still there.

When they found that white smoke suddenly rose from the Jingyang Palace, they immediately reported it to the Internal Affairs Office and notified Zhao Feng.

After Zhao Feng learned about this, he went directly to Jingyang Palace to check, and immediately found the golden pig that caused all this.

Seeing that it was not a big deal, Zhao Feng just added another tank of water to the golden pig that day, and then left Jingyang Palace, thinking that he would come to add some water every day in the future.

When he returned, he told Mr. Shang about it.

As a result, Manager Shang asked him to take the golden pig back to the Internal Affairs Office to raise it for two days.

Zhao Feng naturally followed his godfather's words, thinking that he had some profound intentions.

But......

"Your Highness, the golden pig is well raised in the Internal Affairs Office, if necessary, the old slave will bring the golden pig back tomorrow."

Zhao Feng said.

Hearing that the golden pig was safe and sound, Princess Ankang and Yu'er were naturally overjoyed.

After all, it's the second pet of your own family, and if you say no, it's gone, and it's inevitably sad.

They also didn't expect that the golden pig was taken by Zhao Feng to take care of it for a few days.

"It turns out that this is the case, it really annoys Mr. Zhao."

Princess Ankang patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu'er knew that she didn't have to boil hot water herself in the future, and she cried with joy.

"Your Highness, in the future, you must remember that you can't leave the golden pig at home."

"Although the Golden Pig is a golden flame fish from the endless sea of fire, it can survive without water, but because of its self-heating characteristics, it always needs someone to take care of it."

"Otherwise, it will easily cause a catastrophe and be criticized."

What Zhao Feng said is also very reasonable, the golden pig's self-heating characteristics are indeed very dangerous, if it is left in a random place, it is very easy to cause a fire.

Especially in the palace, starting a fire is not a small culpability.

"Ankang has written it down, thank you Manager Zhao for reminding me."

Princess Ankang replied solemnly, saying that she had taken these words to heart.

Zhao Feng nodded and didn't say anything more.

A few people were chatting over tea, and Princess Ankang told Zhao Feng about what she had seen outside the palace in recent days.

Of course, she didn't elaborate on many of these things, especially about the deaths of Zhao Si and Hou San.

Princess Ankang only told this matter as a bystander, and did not tell the specific content of Li Xuan's involvement.

Although she also knew very well that the eunuchs in flower clothes who had been guarding them in the past few days would also give Zhao Feng a report.

But what does it say in the report of the eunuchs in flowery clothes, that is where the director of Ankang can't go.

There are some things that must not be admitted, especially when it comes to the lives of the sons of the two squires.

Although Princess Ankang did not participate in person, she also instructed Li Xuan after all.

Hearing Princess Ankang talk about this, Zhao Feng also said:

"The murder of the son-in-law of the household department and the official department has also caused a stir in the court and the central government in recent days."

"But now the murderer has also been arrested, and the case has also been revealed under the murderer's explanation."

"For this case, His Majesty ordered the hundred officials to follow suit, and no one was allowed to connive at their families, act recklessly, and oppress the people. If there is a recurrence, it will be severely punished. ”

"Zhao Jingcheng, the head of the household department, and Hou Qingbo, the head of the department, have already been hated by many people before they have time to complain."

"After something like this happened in their family, they were unlucky with many people."

"I heard that those who have gentlemen in the family have locked up their children and are not allowed to go out for half a step."

"This can make the people of the capital quiet for a few days."

After Zhao Feng finished speaking, he took a sip of tea and moistened his throat.

Listening to his tone, it seemed that he did not have a good impression of these officials.

Li Xuan also didn't expect that the imperial court had come to a conclusion on this matter so quickly.

If the case was closed so quickly, it is estimated that there is also a reason why Sissi's uncle was immediately arrested.

In addition, Fang Muyang had already prepared a series of incriminating evidence, and Ayimu was on the side, even if Qianqian's uncle had a hundred mouths, I am afraid that he would not be able to argue clearly.

But Sissi's uncle betrayed Sissi's family back then, and then sold Sissi into Hu Yulou, and now it is considered that she deserves it, and it is not a pity to die.

After saying this, Zhao Feng then asked:

"I don't know what the result of His Highness's trial out of the palace this time?"

Princess Ankang knew that Zhao Feng was asking her about the case, so she immediately smiled, and then replied:

"I solved the case by mistake, but it took a long time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to win the top spot this time."

After all, Princess Ankang didn't investigate well from the beginning this time, and later when she was helping Fang Muyang, Li Xuan unexpectedly found that the case in Princess Ankang's hands was related to Fang Muyang, so she solved the case by the way.

This also caused Princess Ankang to solve the case in her hands on the fourth day after leaving the palace.

Judging from the seven-day deadline for solving the case, Princess Ankang's time is stuck in the middle, which is not bad or bad.

Of course, this is a comparison between the princes and princesses who have solved the case.

Princess Ankang also knew that there were still many people who didn't think about solving the case at all, such as Princess Yuan'an, who played with her for seven days, and the Five Princes and the Seven Princesses who didn't care about the Imperial Garden Competition.

Zhao Feng heard that Princess Ankang didn't solve the case until the fourth day, but he didn't show a disappointed expression, but comforted:

"Your Highness, you don't have to think about it."

"As long as the case is solved this time, it will be considered that the trial has been completed."

"When the time comes, Your Majesty will reward you."

"Of course, the quality of this reward naturally depends on the performance in the process of solving the case."

"With His Highness's performance, it shouldn't be a problem to get a good reward."

Hearing Zhao Feng say this, Princess Ankang smiled happily:

"I hope so."

They sat and chatted for a while, waiting for the palace maids to clean up Jingyang Palace.

After an hour, Zhao Feng took someone to leave.

I have to say that these palace maids brought by Zhao Feng are really professional, and it only took an hour of effort to clean Jingyang Palace up and down, and it was spotless.

"Your Highness, the old slave is retiring."

"If you have any other needs, you can send someone to the Internal Affairs Office to inform the old slave."

Princess Ankang nodded, and then thanked Zhao Feng:

"Thank you so much for Mr. Zhao today."

After some politeness, Princess Ankang asked Yu'er to send Mr. Zhao out.

After Zhao Feng led the people away, Jingyang Palace was quiet again.

There are only three of them in the huge Jingyang Palace, but this kind of quiet three little ones have long been used to it, and even only in this way will they feel more comfortable.

If it is like other places in the palace, people come and go, and there is constant excitement, it is estimated that it will make them feel uncomfortable.

Princess Ankang returned to the house after a long absence, and lay down on her bed.

It doesn't matter where you sleep or lie in your own bed.

Princess Ankang stretched comfortably on the bed, the backs of her hands and insteps were also straightened, and she pulled her body to the longest.

There was a crackling sound on her body, and the bones of her body were screaming with joy.

"Hmm, it's so comfortable."

Princess Ankang lay on the bed and said inarticulately.

Although it was still morning, Princess Ankang, who was lying on the bed, felt a wave of sleepiness hit her.

She blinked twice, felt her eyelids sink more and more, and began to cry out from her mouth:

"Ah Xuan, Ah Xuan......"

After Li Xuan heard the movement, he walked in from outside, but as soon as he came in, he saw Princess Ankang lying on the bed and coquettish.

She was opening her arms at this time, waving to Li Xuan constantly.

"Ah Xuan, come on!"

"I'll show you a good thing."

Princess Ankang's eyes flashed with a narrow gaze, and she said shyly.

Every time she wanted to trick Li Xuan into going to bed, she had such an expression.

Princess Ankang knew that at this point in time, Li Xuanke was not sleepy at all, it was when he was full of energy, and she wanted him to sleep with her for a while, and she couldn't do it without any means.

But Li Xuan pretended not to know every time and deliberately went to the role of Princess Ankang.

"Meow~"

Li Xuan let out an ignorant cry, and then staggered and climbed onto Princess Ankang's bed.

As a result, the next moment, Princess Ankang lifted the quilt and covered Li Xuan's entire body into the quilt, and then there was a bad laugh in the quilt.

"Hey, hey, hey~"

"Such a simple kitten was born to be deceived by the princess."

"Tell the princess to go to bed, otherwise, I won't let you go."

Princess Ankang recklessly put her hands up and down, playing with every inch of fur on Li Xuan's body, and the evil laughter that came out of her mouth was even more proud.

Li Xuan let out an unwilling cry, resisting weakly, after all, it was difficult to escape the clutches of Princess Ankang.

……

Half an hour later, Li Xuan dragged his tired body out of the bed.

He looked at Princess Ankang, who was sleeping unconscious with her mouth slightly open, and couldn't help but shake her head and smile:

"It's not easy to coax children to sleep and have to role-play."

Li Xuan thought so, and wiped the crystal clear liquid from Princess Ankang's mouth with his tail.

"It seems that I am indeed tired of playing, and I don't have the princess's sleeping appearance at all."

Li Xuan re-folded the quilt for Princess Ankang, and then when he came out, he saw that Yu'er had already started practicing martial arts in the courtyard.

In the past few days, when she was outside the palace, Yu'er could only secretly practice twice when there were no outsiders, so she fell behind a lot of progress on weekdays.

After returning to Jingyang Palace, Yu'er hurriedly resumed studying and practicing hard, striving to catch up with the progress that had fallen in the past few days.

Yu'er finally worshipped Zhao Feng as a teacher, so she naturally didn't want to waste such a good opportunity.

And only if he has stronger strength, can he better protect Princess Ankang and Li Xuan.

This is Yu'er's simple idea, so she can work tirelessly in the cultivation that seems boring to outsiders.

Seeing Li Xuan coming out of the house, Yu'er said to him while cultivating:

"Ah Xuan, if you are free today, can you go to the Internal Affairs Office to bring the golden pig back?"

"It's been very troublesome for Mr. Zhao to take care of the golden pig these days, and it's really embarrassing to let Mr. Zhao send the golden pig back."

Li Xuan also understood what Yu'er meant, nodded immediately, and agreed to come down to the matter.

"This guy is really a cat trouble."

Li Xuan complained in his heart, and then left over the wall.

He has been out of the palace for a long time this time, and he doesn't know how the cat brothers in the palace are doing.

Before Li Xuan left the palace, Maoba and Fat Orange had already faintly shown signs of breakthroughs, and I don't know if they have gone further in the past few days.

When Yu'er was in the palace, she would cook some meat for them to eat every day to ensure that they could have sufficient nutrition when they broke through.

It's a pity that in the past few days when the three little ones are away, the cat canteen has to be temporarily closed for a period of time.

"I don't expect them to break through, as long as they don't starve."

On the way to the Imperial Garden, Li Xuan couldn't help but think with some concern.

After a few days of delicious food and drink, I have to forage for food by myself, and I don't know if the cats can eat enough.

Li Xuan also experienced this stage at the beginning.

When you break through the Blood Condensation Realm, the feeling of being hungry will be magnified several times, as if you are hungry and can even digest your own flesh and bones.

Before leaving the palace, Li Xuan and Yu'er prepared some cooked meat and raw meat in advance and put them in the kitchen of Jingyang Palace.

In this way, the cats can come to Jingyang Palace to eat by themselves.

It's just that the meat can only be stored for two or three days at most, and then it will start to spoil, so I don't prepare too much.

Moreover, Maoba and Fat Orange said that they also have their own solutions, so Li Xuancai left with confidence.

When he came to the Imperial Garden, Li Xuan saw a lot of traces of cats at a glance.

Some are basking in the sun, some are fighting, and some are sucking nepeta.

And under the black dragon statue in the center of the imperial garden, there are three cats that are particularly eye-catching, and it is the three of them who are the cats.

Cat Ba and Fat Tangerine are attacking the black dragon statue with their teeth and claws.

Although the attacks of the two of them could not leave traces on the Black Dragon Statue, unlike before, the shock of the Black Dragon Statue could not hurt them now.

"Oh? Have you learned to control your powers? ”

Li Xuan felt a little surprised.

You must know that the intelligence of the cat bully and the fat orange is far inferior to Li Xuan's.

Although Li Xuan had already seen that the two of them had not yet broken through to the Blood Condensation Realm, such progress was enough to surprise the cat.

Li Xuan quietly came to the vicinity of the black dragon statue, and then stood aside elegantly, encircled his body with his tail, and silently watched the three of them cultivate.

Maoba and Fat Orange have made extraordinary progress, as for the cow, they are still the same as before, listlessly touching the fish on the side, and at first glance, they are being forcibly pulled over to practice.

However, the attack of Cat Ba and Fat Orange is already in shape, and if they face the siege of the previous few thin dogs, I am afraid that they can easily handle it by themselves now.

Such progress is insignificant for Li Xuan, but for Maoba and Fat Orange, it is of great significance.

After all, Li Xuannai is an auspicious spirit beast from the sky, and the cat bully and the fat orange are just ordinary wild cats in the palace.

The fact that they were able to embark on the path of cultivation of Terran warriors through Li Xuan's guidance was a miracle in itself.

At the same time, Li Xuan couldn't help but have a question:

"Over the years, there are probably quite a few orcs with spiritual intelligence, haven't any of them discovered this secret?"

The original physical talent of the beast race, plus the martial arts of the human race.

In Li Xuan's view, this kind of cultivation is the real royal way.

"Maybe I'm not the first to discover this secret."

Li Xuan didn't dare to underestimate the heroes of the world.

And at this time, the three of them also noticed Li Xuan's arrival.

The three cats, who were still cultivating seriously, immediately let out an excited cry, abandoned the black dragon statue, and went straight to Li Xuan.

When they came to Li Xuan's body, they meowed together.

The cat's personality is more introverted, and he just meows as a greeting, and then falls silent.

But the fat orange and the cow are like two chatters, and the meow is endless.

Listening to them talk about their daily life in the past few days, Li Xuan listened patiently, occasionally meowing in response.

Li Xuan suddenly felt that being surrounded by cats like this, it seemed to be a good feeling to be the boss of the cat.

After some exchanges, Li Xuan found that the cats had not been hungry in the past few days, and it turned out that they had already prepared some reserve food.

Li Xuan followed them to a rooftop near the Imperial Garden.

I saw that there were dense dried rats neatly placed on the roof, and I don't know who taught them, but they learned to dry this kind of thing.

Regarding Li Xuan's question, Fat Tangerine proudly straightened his chest, obviously it was his idea.

The rats are eviscerated, then spread out into a piece, and after a few days of exposure to the sun, the meat becomes brittle, so that it can be preserved for a longer time.

This is still the idea that Fat Orange thought of after eating bacon in Jingyang Palace before.

For Fat Orange's intelligence, Li Xuan is no longer surprised.

Just looking at so many rats in front of me, I'm afraid that the rats in the palace have been wiped out during this time.

In the long run, the royal rat master with pure blood in the palace is afraid that he will be wiped out.

In the future, only foreign rats from outside the palace will continue to multiply in the palace and continue to become cats and their meals.

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw that their daily lives and cultivation had not been affected.

And during the period when the three little ones were out of the palace, according to the report of the cats, nothing happened in the palace, which can be regarded as calm.

Li Xuan communicated with the three of them for a while, and then made an appointment to let them continue to come to Jingyang Palace to eat meat later.

With the return of the three little ones to Jingyang Palace, it means that the cat canteen has reopened.

And after Li Xuan said yes to the cats, he left the Imperial Garden.

If the cat canteen wants to reopen, it still needs an important role.

After Li Xuan left the Imperial Garden, he went straight to the Internal Affairs Mansion.

When he came to the courtyard of Mr. Shang, he saw the location of the golden pig at a glance.

That's right, if the cat canteen wants to reopen, it is indispensable to the free stove of the golden pig.

And Li Xuan found that the golden pig was also doing his old job in the Internal Affairs Office.

At this time, the golden pig was placed in a large glass jar, which was filled with steaming hot water, and it was bubbling and bubbling.

On the top of the glazed jar, a thick layer of tea leaves is spread.

The steam from the tea leaves is constantly ironed, and then the steam from the scalded tea leaves is sent down the glass pipe above to another round glass cup, condensing drops of transparent liquid with a little turquoise.

"What is this doing?"

Li Xuan tilted his head and began to seriously look at the strange device in front of him.

As a result, he looked at it for a while, and immediately understood what it was doing.

"It's steaming the tea, and then using the gas from the steamed tea to make the tea soup."

Speaking of which, the scene in front of me is similar to the distillation experiment I learned when I was in school.

While Li Xuan was studying this device, Manager Shang walked out of the room, still holding a large teapot in his hand.

"Ah Xuan, you're back."

Manager Shang greeted Li Xuan.

Li Xuan was not polite, jumped on the table in two or three clicks, and then gestured with his paw in the direction where the golden pig was.

"Haha, that's what you say."

"This is my newly researched way of making tea."

"I call it steamed tea extraction."

"I wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to work so well."

"Ah Xuan, you can also take two sips and taste it."

Mr. Shang said excitedly, then picked up a teacup, poured out a full cup of tea from the large teapot, and handed it to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan licked it curiously, and sure enough, he found that this tea had another taste.

Compared with the tea brewed by Mr. Shang before, this tea is obviously sweeter.

Li Xuan tasted it, and the tea was still the original tea, but the taste was slightly different.

The tea is good tea, but Li Xuan looked at the complicated utensils in front of him, as well as the golden pig that was burning hard, and suddenly felt again, "No, right?" ”

Manager Shang noticed Li Xuan's gaze, and immediately asked with a smile:

"Ah Xuan is here to take this guy home, right?"

"I'm actually pretty much done with this experiment, why don't I help you get it out now?"

Li Xuan turned his head to look at the golden pig.

Because the glazed vessel is transparent, the golden pig can receive almost the maximum amount of light, so the heat it emits now is extraordinarily large, and the water is constantly bubbling and bubbling and cooing.

But the current golden pig does not look very happy, but looks listless, and the eyes of a pair of dead fish are full of lovelessness.

"Doesn't it like to bask in the sun?"

"Why don't you look so happy?"

Li Xuan gestured his tail and asked Mr. Shang.

Mr. Shang smiled slightly, and then explained with an analogy:

"Ah Xuan, no matter how much you like to eat dried fish, but if you eat it for several days in a row, I'm afraid there will be times when you get tired of eating, right?"

Hearing what Mr. Shang said, Li Xuan felt that there was some truth.

Just thinking about it, I can't help but feel a little strange.

For the golden pig, basking in the sun is the same as eating, will you get tired of eating?

"Do you remember the first time you saw the Golden Pig?"

Mr. Shang continued to ask.

Of course Li Xuan remembers.

At that time, he dived into the Sun Flame Pond and almost took his own life.

And the golden pig at that time was very arrogant, and he was extremely dissatisfied with Li Xuan, and collided with Li Xuan several times with his big fat head.

If it weren't for the fact that the Dihong bone ring on Li Xuan's tail was harder, I am afraid that the golden pig would not be so easy to succumb.

Seeing Li Xuan's expression, Manager Shang knew that he still remembered the situation when he met the golden pig.

Then, Mr. Shang went on to explain:

"Ah Xuan, aren't you curious, why has he been staying at the bottom of the Sun Yan Pond instead of staying on it to bask in the sun?"

Li Xuan immediately flicked his tail and replied:

"Isn't it because the bottom of the lake is hotter?"

As soon as Li Xuan finished answering, he realized something.

That is to say, compared to the sun's irradiation, if there are other heat sources, it will be more favored by the golden pig.

"Eat every day, and when you encounter a small snack, you can't walk, is that what you mean?"

Li Xuan felt that he had somewhat understood what Mr. Shang meant.

Seeing that he was thoughtful, Mr. Shang didn't say anything more and went to put away his own set of distillation equipment.

"Ah Xuan, do you need to prepare a wooden basin for you?"

Mr. Shang brought over the glazed vessel containing the golden pig.

This glazed vessel is very valuable, and it will be of great use in the future, so naturally it will not be given to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan shook his head decisively, and then a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he directly stretched his tail into the hot water.

The next moment, he directly wrapped his tail around the golden pig's tail.

The golden pig suddenly left the hot water, and suddenly fluttered and began to struggle.

Li Xuan was not polite, jumped directly to the ground, and then flicked his tail and smashed it hard.

The big fat head of the golden pig made intimate contact with the ground, and there was a loud bang, and he immediately stopped struggling, but the eyes of the dead fish looking at Li Xuan were full of resentment.

"Honest now, aren't you?"

Li Xuan shook the golden pig and couldn't help but think proudly.

It's just that the size of the golden pig is too big, even if Li Xuan tries his best to raise his tail, this guy's head is still almost dragging to the ground.

And the tail is always raised, and Li Xuan will have an urge to poop.

"Ah Xuan, are you okay?"

"Why don't I bring it back for you?"

Originally, Manager Shang asked Zhao Feng to bring the golden pig in order to relieve his boredom and do some small experiments.

It was he who borrowed the things, and of course he was obliged to send the borrowed things back.

But Li Xuan was not afraid of trouble at all, and with the traditional virtue of respecting the old and loving the young, he rejected the kindness of Mr. Shang, and after meowing and saying hello, he happily left the Internal Affairs Office.

The size of the golden pig is indeed a trouble, but Li Xuan has extraordinary intelligence, and this little problem naturally can't bother him.

Originally, Mr. Shang was afraid that Li Xuan would drag the golden pig back and drag the golden pig to death halfway, but he saw Li Xuan, who jumped on the wall, constantly waving his tail and throwing the golden pig's body around.

In this way, there is no possibility of mopping the golden pig's body, because the body that has been thrown by Li Xuan has been kept in mid-air.

It's just that Manager Shang couldn't help but be even more worried, whether the golden pig could return to Jingyang Palace alive.

"Alas, no matter what fish meets a cat, it will not end well."

Mr. Shang sighed as he tasted tea and sighed casually.
