Xiao Luzi looked around and found nothing.

Thinking about it, the cat was most likely hiding under the chair of some nobleman, and was covered by his robe.

He didn't dare to act rashly, so he walked to the little emperor and explained the situation in his ear.

When the little emperor heard this, his face suddenly changed.

"Are you sure she escaped here?"

"The minions really saw that the cat really came up."

There is a lake under the stage, and cats can't jump into the lake, right?

The little emperor glanced left and right, frowning and considering.

If the regent was not there, he could have ordered someone to search for the cat on the spot.

But now, Zong Yue'an is sitting here listening to the play, and it seems to be very Yaxing, the little emperor never dares to make a big fight for a cat, and he is rude to everyone.

He was afraid that he would be reprimanded in public by the stern Zong Yue and lose face.

Xiao Luzi's head turned quickly: "Your Majesty, why don't the minions search under the pretext that a snake has broken into the pavilion?" It's a matter of the safety of the masters, and the regent can't say anything. ”

The little emperor's eyebrows unfolded and said appreciatively: "You still have a lot of ghost ideas." ”

The tune was stopped.

When the people heard that the poisonous snake had crawled in, where could they care about watching the show? They all stood up in horror and hid in the open space behind them.

The situation under dozens of tables and chairs can be seen at a glance.

Only Zong Yue sat still.

Xiao Luzi stood in front of him and said worriedly: "Lord Wang, you have ...... for your work."

Yun An stood in front of Zong Yue and said, "There are no snakes here. ”

Zong Yue felt that the little head in his arms was constantly arching, and the little paws were also pressing his abdominal muscles through the clothes.

He looked down and saw that the kitten was looking up at him through the ventilated opening, and there was uneasiness in its large, bead-like eyes.

Zong Yue stretched out a finger as slender as jade and gently pressed back her head that was about to poke out.

- Be nice.

He warned with his eyes, and he didn't know if the kitten could understand.

Xiao Luzi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zong Yue's next words.

"What do you do when you stop at the tune, go on."

Zong Yue didn't even give Xiao Luzi a trace of afterglow, and gave orders directly to the people on the stage.

His tone was calm, but with the air of a superior who could not be disobeyed, and he didn't seem to take anyone seriously.

The people on the stage did not hesitate for a moment, and immediately resumed singing.

This made the little emperor who stopped the song very embarrassed.

However, the gloom in his eyes only appeared for a moment, and then quickly disappeared, and he put on a kind and gentle smile again: "Since Uncle Wang said no, then there is no, there is no need to search again." ”

Xiao Luzi hurriedly retreated.

The lively tunes and musical instruments sounded again, and Zong Yue was relieved.

He didn't mean to lose the emperor's face in public, but he was worried that the environment was too quiet, and if the kitten in his arms barked, it would not end well.

The little emperor who was holding his breath in his heart didn't look long before leaving.

Zong Yue asked people to take a cloak, rolled the kitten without a trace, and left the stage.

……

The masters all have a fixed residence in Yujin Garden.

The emperor lived in the most gorgeous Hanzhang Building, the Queen Mother lived in the quiet Taiqing Building, and Zong Yue used to live in the Yangui Building, which was close to the back mountain.

Remote, wide, the emperor is not good at ambushing eyeliner around, disturbing his life.

As soon as Zong Yue stepped into the room, he ordered someone to bring a basin of warm water.

It's late autumn now, the cold wind is blowing, and the chill is already a little bit in the bone.

As soon as the cloak was opened, Cha Jiu sneezed into the wind.

Her hair was still wet, shivering from the cold, and her little head and body were shrunk together.

The maid called for warm water.

Zong Yue said to Yun An: "You give it a bath." ”

Yun An was surprised and hesitated: "My subordinates haven't raised cats, so I don't know how to wash it......"

Zong Yue glanced at Cha Jiu, who was about to freeze to death, and said quickly: "Just wash it casually and make it warmer." ”

Yun An didn't have any experience, so he directly carried the back of the cat's neck and lifted it over, who knew that as soon as the cat's paws touched the water, it struggled frantically, and screamed more than the other.

"Whew!" Don't wash!

"Woohoo!" Don't touch the mourners!

Yun An was at a loss, and he didn't dare to force it into the water.

Zong Yue was helpless, folded his sleeves and stepped forward: "I'll come." ”

Cha Jiu fell on his hand, obviously much quieter, but as soon as he touched the water, he still wanted to break free uneasily.

She even took a bite on Zong Yue's tiger's mouth.

But I didn't use any force, and the sharp teeth were tickling.

Zong Yue was not used to her, and warned: "You are very dirty, if you don't let you wash it, I will throw you out." ”

Cha Jiu stiffened.

Yun'an: "Lord Wang, how can a beast understand human speech...... Well? ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the cat was no longer struggling, let go, and obediently was carried by his master and put into the water.

Although Cha Jiu no longer struggled, the cat was naturally afraid of water, and she trembled desperately in Zong Yue's hands, and her two front paws were tightly attached to his wrists.

But even if she was scared, she put away her nails well and only touched Zong Yue with a soft meat pad.

Zong Yue's tone was no longer stern just now: "Don't be afraid, I will hold you steady." ”

His big broad palm steadily supported Cha Jiu's head and neck, and his other hand poured warm water on her back.

The mud, sand, and leaves on the hair were all washed away one by one, and Zong Yue also used a soap horn for her to carefully wash every strand of clumped hair.

The warm water was changed one pot after another, just to prevent the water from being cold and making Chajiu cold.

The skillful movements made Yun An begin to wonder if the prince had raised these pets in the past.

Zong Yue wrapped the washed Cha Jiu with a thick soft towel, wiped her hair, and said lightly: "Anything in the world, when talent and hard work are promoted, bathing the cat is the same, and the same is true for governing the country." ”

It's a pity that the current emperor doesn't understand this truth and can't do it.

Cha Jiu's head was rubbed back and forth in the soft towel, although he was a little dizzy, but he could also hear his unfinished words.

Obviously, it means that Zong Qiguang is stupid and lazy.

The washed Cha Jiu obviously looks much better, with snow-white hair, a beautiful long beard, a pink and lovely nose, and yellow and blue eyes, as pure as two springs.

The more Yun An looked at Cha Jiu, the more worried he became: "Lord Wang, this cat is so beautiful and humane, I think Your Majesty has put a lot of thought into it, will it be ...... if we take it away rashly like this?"

Got in trouble?

Zong Yue has little interest in raising cats, and even less interested in occupying the little emperor's things.

But when he was watching the stage and was pitifully looked at by this cat with a pair of mandarin duck eyes, he ghostly pulled off his robe and protected her.

It can't be said that it is not fate.

But he really didn't have to keep the cat.

Zong Yue looked at the tea Jiu in the soft towel.

Cha Jiu was also looking at him quietly.

Suddenly, Zong Yue took off the jade pendant and sachet on his waist and put them in front of Cha Jiu at the same time.

"Pick one." He said, "If you choose the one I have in mind, I will keep you." ”

"If not, I'll give you back."
