In addition to the sound of barking, there is also the meowing of kittens.

Just as Fan Yunxiao was surprised, a big yellow dog squeezed through the door and walked in, making a whining sound.

Not only that, on top of the big yellow dog's head stood a heroic little black cat, whose voice became much more cheerful after seeing Bai Chi.

"Master, I'm here to save you. I'll have Xiao Huang escort you back to the cold palace so your husband won't be suspicious of you."

Bai Chi hurried over, picked up Xiao Hei, and rubbed him lovingly.

"You're smart. If you don't come to the rescue, forget about playing with the Mastermind next time!"

One man and one cat, one is flattering and the other is threatening, but in Fan Yunxiao's eyes, it is a harmonious and friendly relationship.

The big yellow dog was ignored, walked around the house, and then went outside.

Fan Yunxiao looked at the little black cat rubbing against Bai Chi's arms and asked curiously, "Is this also the Imperial Concubine's cat?"

"This is mine, but I'm friends with Xiao Huang."

As he spoke, he glanced at the big yellow dog that was already in the yard, then turned and gave Fan Yunxiao serious instructions.

"You must not tell anyone. The Imperial Concubine loves her little Huang very much. If she knew that little Hei was riding on little Huang's head, she would be angry."

Fan Yunxiao also glanced outside the door. It was the same big yellow dog that could be seen everywhere in the countryside, but this dog was fatter and stronger, and looked more majestic.

Xiao Huang?

"Are you sure his name is Xiao Huang and not Da Huang? And as a concubine, you can raise all kinds of dogs, so why would you raise such a common dog?"

Bai Chi looked at him in surprise: "It seems like you really just came back, you don't even know this?"

Fan Yunxiao shook his head decisively. He knew nothing in the first place.

"Xiao Huang was a puppy when he was little, so he got used to being called. Even if you call Da Huang now, he won't respond."

Bai Chi was petting the cat while explaining to Fan Yunxiao that in fact he had just learned about the past from Xiao Hei.

"It's said that Xiao Huang was poisoned in her own residence when the Imperial Concubine left the palace to visit her family two years ago. Just as the Imperial Concubine was about to eat the soup, a servant happened to pass by carrying two little yellow dogs. One of them kept screaming and struggling to run over, knocking the poison soup out of the Imperial Concubine's hand."

Fan Yunxiao was surprised: "He is a person who understands human nature and is my lifesaver. No wonder he wants a treasure."

In just a few words, Xiao Huang had already strolled around the yard. Before Bai Chi could say anything else, a voice suddenly came from outside the gate.

"Your Highness, the imperial kitchen has delivered the food."

"Send it in."

At the same time, he pulled Bai Chi a little closer to the house and whispered to him, "Hide for a while. When the people leave, you can come out to eat."

After saying this, he frowned slightly and pinched the wrist he was holding: "You are too thin, don't they usually give you food?"

Bai Chi nodded vigorously: "I'm almost starving to death!"

The door was pushed open. Fan Yunxiao signaled Bai Chi to be quiet with his eyes, then he calmly went out and closed the door.

This is just the bathroom, the actual eating and sleeping rooms are on the other side.

He was a prince after all, and tonight's meal was specially ordered by the emperor, so it was quite sumptuous. It took the palace maid nearly a quarter of an hour to serve the dishes. When Fan Yunxiao sent his people away and went to find Bai Chi again, the room was empty.

Unconvinced, he searched every corner and even went into the hot spring pool to search around.

Not anywhere.

Even the wet clothes he had taken off were gone.

Could it be that he was too tired from traveling and had hallucinations before?

Then he hurried inside and carefully checked the clothes he had prepared before, making sure that a few pieces were missing.

“It’s not an illusion!”

I searched around again and saw that the window in the corner was opened a crack. I pushed the window open and climbed out. I searched along the corner of the wall and found a dog hole behind a cluster of flowers.

Then Fan Yunxiao realized that Xiao Huang, who had been strolling in the yard, was also missing.

“You run so fast!”

Fan Yunxiao gritted his teeth, feeling a little angry. He had clearly been told to wait so they could have dinner together later.

He can even squeeze out of such a small hole, which shows how thin he is.

There was no shortage of food in the palace, yet she, as a concubine, could still be so thin. It was obvious that her monthly salary was often withheld.

In just a short while, Fan Yunxiao had already imagined Bai Chi's miserable appearance, lonely and helpless in the palace, being bullied.

Even eating doesn’t taste good anymore.

I don't know if he was seen by anyone when he returned, if he would have food to eat tonight, or if he would be cold when he slept...

Until I fell asleep, I was about to fall asleep, but suddenly I woke up with a start.

He hadn't asked for his name yet, so who was he? Which empress's palace did he live in?

Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Liar!"

I clearly told him to send it back, but he sneaked away!

"Oh my, Master, look! In just a short while, your husband has lost his appetite and even lost his sleep."

At this time, Bai Chi, who had returned to the cold palace, was lying on the hard bed, paying attention to the movements of Lady Yao opposite.

After hearing Xiao Hei's complaints and seeing Fan Yunxiao getting so angry that he called him a liar, I felt a little embarrassed.

He didn't mean to sneak away, but he felt that he couldn't really crawl through the dog hole, even though the hole did exist.

Of course, he couldn't tell Xiao Hei that, so he said, "What do you know? This is called playing hard to get. Tomorrow he will definitely ask around to find out who the older male concubines in the harem are."

Xiao Hei was successfully misled, and suddenly realized: "It has to be the master, who really knows your husband best!"
