Chapter 13 A Show with Several Tomcats
It had been two days since Chu Mo left. Jing Yun ate, played and slept as usual, with no changes from the past.
Chen Fu has been sticking around her a lot these past few days. Jing Xuan was unhappy at first, but later on she didn't care.
Because she gradually realized that Chen Fu's purpose was not just to take advantage of her, but also to monitor her.
After all, when they were discussing matters a few days ago, Chu Mo had always held her in his arms. Although he was relieved, Wen Zhixun and Shen Fu were still suspicious.
Jing Xuan didn't care. She let them monitor her and felt very comfortable.
She was squatting on the city wall and looking into the distance.
Huizhou Qing County is in that direction, and Chu Mo is also there. He said he would bring her food and gadgets, but he didn't know if he would forget. If he forgot...
She slapped the wall hard with her little paws, thinking ferociously: This princess will beat you!
She was silent for a moment, then let out a "meow", bent her front legs, and lay down lazily, squinting her eyes and enjoying the autumn sunshine.
Winter will come in a few days, and Jing Xuan felt worried when she thought about it.
She was afraid of cold since she was young. When she was in the capital, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would send her a large amount of silver charcoal and quilts every winter, fearing that she would catch a cold.
Whenever she fell ill, the old doctor in the Imperial Medical Bureau would be so anxious that his hair would turn white.
The reason is simple: the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Empress and the Crown Prince... which one of them could they afford to offend, and which one of them didn't love Jing Xuan?
Therefore, every winter, the imperial doctors prayed devoutly every day - may the Seventh Princess be healthy, healthy, healthy...
With countless good health, Jingxuan survived winter after winter without any danger, but this year...
She was silent, wondering whether the imperial doctors' prayers could reach her across thousands of mountains and rivers.
After all, love always lasts forever.
In fact, she was in good health, but she was too afraid of cold and couldn't stand the cold, even though she was covered with hair.
Here, she couldn't be as pampered as she was in the palace, without countless silver charcoal and thick quilts for her to enjoy. She could only carry on.
Just thinking about it makes me feel that the road ahead is dark and cold.
Now we can only take one step at a time. What if she returns to the capital before winter?
——Return to the capital.
Thinking of this, Jing Xuan paused again.
After arriving at Yunan Pass, except for the first two days when I had this thought, I never thought about it again.
How nice it would be to go back to the capital, with its delicious food, colorful clothes, all kinds of interesting things, and family and friends.
Want to go back?
I thought so, but Chu Mo said——
"I will take you to see the unique scenery of the border, to see the golden stamens blown by the autumn wind, the sparkling water under the scorching sun, and the vast prairie with fertile fields for thousands of miles."
Chu Mo said: "The border is great, I want you to like it here."
Jing Xuan chuckled in her heart, stood up, jumped lightly off the city wall, and walked towards the general's mansion.
——It’s noon, time to eat.
The autumn sun is warm and gentle, without the scorching temperature that burns people, but with a warmth that extends from the body to the heart.
Gently, without the slightest sense of aggression, it blows along with the autumn wind across the sky full of fragrance and the various forms of the human world.
Jing Yu thought: Chu Mo said so, so I believe him.
…
After returning home, the meal was not yet fully prepared, but...
Jing Xuan stared expressionlessly at the coquettish male cats on the wall, feeling so complicated that she lost her appetite.
A male cat with bright fur slightly raised his chin, seemingly casually glancing at Jingxiu, and then faced the sunlight, letting his fur shine, and slowly said, "The trees are all in autumn colors, and the mountains are in the setting sun. Autumn is a beautiful season."
He met Jing Yu's eyes, and moved his tail in a way that he thought was extremely charming: "Beautiful girl, what do you think?"
Jing Xuan: “…”
It's outrageous!
Seeing that she didn't say anything, he sighed again: "Beautiful girl, I wonder if you have ever heard of - 'The clouds are like clothes, the flowers are like faces, the spring breeze blows on the threshold, and the dew is gorgeous'. In my opinion, this poem is written for you."
Jing Xuan: “…………”
Far from the truth! !
Not to mention her, even the male cats nearby couldn't stand it anymore and turned around and started a group fight. The fight was so spectacular that Jing Yu was amazed.
Just when the cats were fighting and it was hard to tell friend from foe, a white male cat walked up to Jing Xuan and looked her up and down. After a while, he exclaimed: "Your fur is so beautiful and never gets dusty. Unlike me, I can turn into a yellow cat in a few hours."
Jing Yu paused for a few breaths and flattered: "No, your fur is also beautiful."
"Liar! You female cats are the best at lying to cats!!" He suddenly shouted angrily as if his tail was stepped on, "She kept saying that she loved me the most and would love me no matter if I had white or yellow hair! But she still ran away with another cat!!"
"I love her so much! I bathe her three times a day and lick her fur all the time, for fear that her fur will turn yellow!! I love her so much!!"
Jing Yu shuddered and subconsciously took a step back.
Seeing this, the fighting cats hurried over, protecting Jing Yu behind them and trying to persuade him.
"Alright, alright, I know you're in pain."
"Look at it more positively. After all, you were the one who dug the wall first."
"You've already had several children, just give up."
Jing Xuan listened and felt that life was full of surprises and joys, but there were only surprises and no joy in front of her.
It's outrageous. Why should she, a princess, listen to the love story of two cats?
As expected, unexpected things in life always happen unexpectedly. When we encounter them, we are either happy and joyful, or heartbroken. It is impossible to have both.
Before she could finish her sigh, the white cat came forward again, its dark eyes slightly brightened, no longer sad, and said excitedly: "I believe that you will not make me so sad, why don't we give it a try."
Jing Xuan: “……?!”
"Meow!" Several male cats became angry immediately.
Seeing this grand scene, Jing Xuan suddenly remembered what her brother, the Crown Prince, had said -
"Xuanxuan, there will be many men who express their feelings to you in the future. You must remember that you must not be easily seduced. You are the Princess of Dasui and deserve the best man in the world. When someone says that he likes you, you need to think calmly - is this man's martial arts stronger than General Chu? Is he smarter than your brother? Is he as loyal as Lord Wen?"
"If not, let him go!"
Jing Xuan turned her eyes to the direction of the palace and was silent for a moment, thinking: Brother Emperor, you, who have a great reputation in your life, probably never thought that there are not only people who express their feelings to the emperor's sister, but also cats...
The male cats didn't make much noise for long before Shen Fu came.
He strode over and shouted at the meowing male cats in a sullen manner: "Go away! Stop causing trouble for our Little Gray!"
"Meow! It's Shen Dazhuang, his face is dark! Run!"
The cats all ran away. Shen Fu didn't understand cat language. When he saw the cats running away, he bent down and held Jing Yu in his arms, saying with a smile, "It's time to eat."
Jing Xuan looked at him, with a hint of pity in her eyes.
Deputy General Shen, you probably don’t know that in Maomao’s mind, you are dark and strong.
When the man and the cat walked into the dining room, Wen Zhixun had already started eating.
Chen Fu put Jing Xuan in the nest, tied a scarf for her, and set out some delicious food. Seeing the kitten eating with such relish, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, and almost burst into pink bubbles.
Wen Zhixun's mouth twitched slightly, he cleared his throat, and after regaining Shen Fu's consciousness, he said, "The general should have arrived in Qing County."
"Yeah." Shen Fu responded, eating meat with big mouthfuls, looking heartless.
Jing Xuan, on the other hand, stopped and looked at Wen Zhixun, who paused for a moment, picked up the food slowly, and said to her, "Don't worry, the general is safe."
Jing Xuan nodded and continued eating.
Shen Fu looked at the kitten while eating, with mixed emotions, feeling relieved and worried at the same time. His expression changed several times, as if he was setting up a stage to perform a play, which almost made Jing Yu lose interest in eating.
Wen Zhixun raised his foot and kicked him: "Are you free?"
"No." Chen Fu was so worried that he almost didn't finish his fourth bowl of rice. He said faintly, "You don't know that there were five cats trying to make love with Xiao Hui just now."
Jing Xuan: “…”
The word "seeking pleasure" is used very cleverly.
Wen Zhixun frowned slightly: "As soon as the general left, the tomcat jumped out, as cunning as a fox."
Jing Yu blinked. What does it have to do with Chu Mo?
As if he had guessed her doubts, he explained, "That's right. After knowing that Xiao Hui was a little girl, the general sent people to drive away all the male cats lying in ambush outside the mansion. As soon as he left, the kittens all came out and wanted to harm our cats. We should all be taken away and castrated."
The way he said "cut" with indignation seemed as if he had forgotten that he also had that thing. Wen Zhixun even admired him for a moment.
Chen Fu didn't think it was wrong, and said viciously: "What a joke, Xiao Hui is still a little girl! Don't touch me, you ugly bastards out there!"
He had a masculine and tough look, with regular and deep facial features, slanted sword-like eyebrows, sharp eyes and a hideous scar at the end of his eyebrow. Normally, he smiled and didn't look very vicious or bandit-like, but now that he was angry, he was quite scary, like a ball of fire burning wildly, hot and dangerous, and would get burned if you weren't careful.
But Jing Xuan was not afraid. She raised her pink and white little plum blossom claws and pressed his thick big hand, as if to affirm his words.
This made the mighty and domineering General Shen soften his heart, and he immediately turned into a stupid strong man who only knew how to pet cats.
He also coaxed the kitten softly: "Xiao Hui, you are still young, right? You must, must, must, must not pay attention to those male cats. Brother will not harm you, just be obedient."
Jing Xuan: “…Meow.”
Wen Zhixun: “…”
He just felt so ashamed.
But when it comes to age, he murmured softly: "November..."
"What's wrong?" Shen Fu looked at him.
"It's almost mid-month, and the general's birthday is coming." Wen Zhixun said.
Shen Fu stopped petting the cat and Jing Yu also stood up.
Wen Zhixun: "General, you don't want this to be known to everyone, so you'll do it the same as in previous years?"
Shen Fu was silent: "But, the general is twenty-three years old."
Twenty-three is not a special age, but...
"Yes, it has been three years since I came to Yunan Pass, but the general has never celebrated his birthday properly." Wen Zhixun lowered his eyes. His eyelashes were unexpectedly long, enough to hide the complex emotions in his eyes.
What’s more, it’s been more than three years.
He sighed in his heart. Since the death of General Chu Yi when he was seventeen and Madam Chu's seclusion in a Taoist temple, Chu Mo has never celebrated his birthday again.
Even Prince Jingce or the man from the grassland had not changed his mind.
As a teenager, Chu Mo was domineering; as a young man, Chu Mo was gentle and elegant, but no matter when, he was always a man of his word, and once he made a decision, no one could change it.
but……
Wen Zhixun glanced at the kitten calmly, not knowing what it was thinking. With a slight smile on his lips, he continued to eat slowly.
We should be able to look forward to it, hoping that Chu Wenxi of this year can be as happy, free and carefree as he was before he was seventeen.
