Chapter 33
"Master, King Xian has arrived at the palace, and the Queen Mother is out of the palace to visit him."
A hoarse voice sounded, cold and emotionless.
Chu Yao lowered his eyes and played with the white jade in his hands, "Keep staring."
"Yes, master."
Chu Yao: "Yingyi, how is the progress of Fuzhou's disaster relief?"
Shadow One: "Liu Shilang is fully responsible, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner."
Chu Yao nodded, raised his eyelids, and said calmly: "Is there any clue about Ye Yuandao's matter?"
Ye Yuandao is Ye Yi's father and one of his subordinates.
When he was killed, Chu Yao would never believe that bandits did it anyway.
"It has been found out that it is related to Xian Wang's family. The right minister..."
"Ding - ding dong -"
The crisp bell rang, and Ying was on alert for a moment, murderous intent flashed in his cold eyes.
At the entrance of the hall, a furry head poked in, carefully watching the situation inside.
Yu Tao tilted his head, looked suspiciously at the man in black kneeling on the ground, and opened his mouth.
Clothed in black, masked, murderous Ling Ran.
This is Chu Yao's shadow guard? !
Amazing!
But... so fierce...
Tentatively stretching out his paws, stepping into the hall, Yu Tao took a look at Ying Yi, and saw that he was as motionless as a mountain, with his head held high and his chest high, walking steadily, slipping past him.
Ying Yi followed the nimble cat with his eyes, watching him walk towards his master.
The cat raised its head, with a proud expression, but its eyes glanced aside, not looking at him at all.Following the cat's gaze, Chu Yao paused and said, "Back off."
"Yes, master."
The shadow responded, but for a moment, there was no sign of him in the hall.
Yu Tao opened his eyes wide, looking in shock at the place where there were people kneeling just now, but now there was nothing there.
Just, just disappeared?
Yu Tao blinked and looked carefully.It's not that he is dazzled, but that the person has really disappeared.
so fast? !
Yu Tao raised his head, looked at the carved building above his head, looked here and there, but he couldn't find the hiding place of the shadow guard at all.
Shrugging his nose, Yu Tao frowned. Since he became a cat, his nose has become much more sensitive, and he can't smell any smell.
Where did people hide? !
Yu Tao felt an impulse in his heart, wanting to find the shadow guard.
The cat squatted on the ground, looked up at the surroundings, seemed to be very curious about Ying Yi's sudden disappearance, looked east and west, left and right, but didn't look at him.
Chu Yao coughed lightly and called out, "Tao Tao, come here."
"Meow~"
His mouth was almost over his head, and he responded softly, and it was only then that Yu Tao realized it.
Standing up slowly, stretched, yawned, trotted two steps and jumped into Chu Yao's arms.
And the furry head rubbed against his chest, with two comfortable grunts in his throat, lay down, rested his head on his wrist, and closed his eyes.
A set of movements is extremely familiar, I don't know how many times I have done it, it can be called smooth flow.
The corners of Chu Yao's lips raised slightly, with a slight smile, he pinched the cat's ears.
In the past, if the ear was pinched, the cat would definitely resist fiercely.But today, there was indeed no response at all.
Taking a closer look, the cat is breathing evenly, its lower abdomen rises and falls gently, and has already fallen asleep.
Chu Yao: ...
Fell asleep?
You only woke up at Chen Shi, and now it's not your own time, at most one hour has passed, and you fell asleep again?
These days, cats spend more and more time sleeping.
Chu Yao was worried before, and the imperial physician Xuan came to see him. The imperial physician said straightly: "People have spring sleepiness, summer fatigue, autumn nap, and hibernation, so cats may be like this. Now it's the hot time when the cat can't stand the heat. Naturally, it loses its vitality. When autumn comes and the weather is cooler, it will regain its vitality."
Chu Yao was skeptical, but the explanation was reasonable, so he reluctantly believed it.
But...Twelve hours a day, Tao Tao sleeps for about ten hours, even if it is Xia Fu, it is too abnormal.
Chu Yao frowned, and brushed the cat's back with his palm.
"His Majesty……"
Liu Fang walked over quickly, entered the hall, then slowed down and took a breath.
Chu Yao: "Shut up."
Liu Fang's words stuck in his throat and he closed his mouth.
Chu Yao asked in a very soft voice, "Where did Tao Tao go just now?"
"I went to the imperial dining room," Liu Fang said softly, looked up at His Majesty's expression, and continued, "Tao Tao ate a chicken leg, two lion heads, and...a few silver thread fish, a dozen or so lotus seeds... ..."
Chu Yao: "..."
The cat's appetite has increased recently, Liu Fang thought about it, and then said: "Tao Tao is still at the maid's place, begging for a bunch of candied haws."
Chu Yao lowered his eyes, and really saw a trace of red near the cat's mouth.
It is the syrup of candied haws.
Chu Yao laughed angrily. The cat was greedy, lazy, and had a bad temper. He poked the cat's head, and Chu Yao put his palm on his abdomen.
...very thick.
Sleep after eating, eat again after waking up, no wonder.
Squeeze it, full of sensuality.The cat struggled, its paws staring wildly, the soft pad of flesh pressed against the back of Chu Yao's hand, and pushed it out forcefully.
Chu Yao: ...
It should be punished.
Pushing away the annoying hand, Yu Tao rubbed his head, and the skirt of Chu Yao's clothes fell apart, and he buried his head in it.
With a blank expression on his face, Chu Yao took out the cat and put it on his lap.
The cat twisted its body, curled up into a ball, and slept soundly.
Liu Fang glanced at it twice, then quickly lowered his head, lest His Majesty would not like it.
After waking up from sleep, Yu Tao stretched his body, stepped on Chu Yao's leg with his paws, and stepped on it again and again.
Chu Yao put down the brush stained with cinnabar, and looked down at the cat.
He remembered that Chu Ting once said that cats would be very close to people they trusted, and would perform many intimate behaviors.
Stepping on milk is one of them.
It was the first time that the cat got close to him.
With the warm pads on his legs, Chu Yao could feel the temperature under the cat's paws through his clothes.
A smile flashed in his eyes, Chu Yao raised his hand, and before he could put it down, the cat was taken aback, and then jumped to the ground.
Stomach growled, Yu Tao lowered his head, glanced at his stomach, jumped off Chu Yao's lap, and jumped onto the window.
Outside, in the scorching sun, the hands of the sundial cast shadows, pointing exactly to noon.
"Meow!"
Yu Tao turned around and urged: "Meow meow meow! Meow!"
Chu Yao, Chuan Shan, let's eat!
Jumping out of the window, Yu Tao went to the table first, sat upright with his tail curled up in front of his paws, and looked obediently at Chu Yao.
Chu Yao: "...pass the meal."
"Meow~"
When the food was on the table, Yu Tao's eyes were shining brightly, looking at the food.
Seasonal vegetables... I don't like it.
Cucumbers...don't want to eat them.
Eggs... fishy, I don't like it.
……
Tofu with cabbage, bland...don't eat it.
Yu Tao tilted his head, looked at the little eunuch who was serving food, "Meow~"
carry on.
The little eunuch held the tray and lowered his head, not even looking at him.
Yu Tao: ...
that's it?Gone? !
After scanning the dishes on the table in shock, Yu Tao looked at Chu Yao in disbelief.
As the ruler of a country, Ninety-five Supreme Beings, you only eat this...vegetarian for lunch?
Not even a trace of meat? !
Chu Yao remained calm, as if he hadn't noticed the cat's gaze, calmly picked up a piece of tofu and put it on the plate in front of Yu Tao.
"Dinner."
Yu Tao lowered his head, looked at the tofu, then looked up at Chu Yao's face, "Meow?"
Are you serious? !
Pushing away the plate, Yu Tao tilted his head and hummed, "Meow!"
His Highness does not eat.
Chu Yao: "Gu fasting, Tao Tao stays with Gu, how about it?"
The tips of Cat's ears trembled, and he glanced at him from the corner of his eye.
Yu Tao couldn't believe it: "Meow?"
Really?
Staring straight at Chu Yao, Yu Tao's eyes flickered when he saw his stomach eating.
Chu Yao shouldn't lie to His Highness, right?
His Highness is just a cat, he can't be fooled...
Yu Tao was skeptical, so he simply smashed the jar, almost pinched his nose and ate a piece of tofu.
It was bland and unpalatable.
Yu Tao stuck out his tongue, and the next moment, a pinch of green vegetables was put into the bowl.
Yu Tao: ...
Looking up at Chu Yao pitifully, Yu Tao dragged out his voice: "Meow meow——"
Chu Yao, stop pinching——!
Mao'er frowned and buried himself in eating vegetarian dishes. Chu Yao curled his lips and put down the bowl and chopsticks.
After eating slowly for a long time, Yu Tao looked disheveled, hiccupped, and lay down on the table, feeling hopeless.
Your Highness wants to eat meat.
Chu Yao caressed the cat's smooth hair, and said, "There are still three days left in the fast, and Taotao has been working so hard to accompany Gu."
Yu Tao was weak, "Meow."
It's okay, just three days.
"Meow?!"
three days? !
Yu Tao turned over and sat up, and glared at Chu Yao angrily, "Mimimi!"
No!Your Highness will not accompany you!
Your Highness has regretted it!
Liu Fang stood aside, lowered his head, listening to His Majesty's nonsense fasting, trying to reduce the sense of presence as much as possible.
Chu Yao: "Ahem."
Liu Fang said at the right time: "Your Majesty, Tao Tao is really lively and happy to be with you."
Chu Yao: "Are you serious?"
Liu Fang: "Of course, Your Majesty, look how happy the cat is!"
Chu Yao nodded thoughtfully, apparently accepting Liu Fang's statement.
Yu Tao: "Meow meow?"
Opening his mouth blankly, Yu Tao's head was full of question marks, Liu Fang was talking nonsense to Chu Yao!
Yu Tao bared his teeth and grinned fiercely, "Mimimi!"
Liu Fang!Just talk shit!
Even flattering, it's not like you!
If you open your eyes and talk nonsense again, His Highness will really let you flatter you, the ass of the war horse in the stable.
As soon as you shoot, I will kick you with a kick.
Let's see if you dare to flatter me!
Yu Tao smiled, and the fluffy cat's face forced a smile, which was so creepy.
Liu Fang: ...
Bowing his head hurriedly, Liu Fang thought silently: Tao Tao, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame His Majesty, I, I was forced!
Yu Tao scratched the table angrily, moaned and looked at Chu Yao pitifully.
Chu Yao said: "Tao Tao doesn't want to, so let it be."
Yu Tao: "...Meow!"
Who doesn't want to?
Dog Emperor, you say, who is not willing?
Anyway, Your Highness...
Yu Tao glanced at Chu Yao with a guilty conscience, who lowered his eyes and couldn't see his expression clearly.
Yu Tao was startled, and hummed: "Meow meow~"
Seeing how pitiful you are, my Highness still condescends... to accompany you once.
Hmph, next time, don't even think about His Royal Highness accompanying you.
After eating vegetarian food for two days in a row, Yu Tao's face was covered with vegetables, and his face was almost green.
On the last day, the glutton in his stomach was always screaming, Yu Tao couldn't help it, and before Chu Yao went to court, he sneaked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and rushed to the imperial dining room in the morning light.
"Hey, cat!"
A low voice of surprise came out, Yu Tao was taken aback, turned his head to look, and took a step back.
