Chapter 2 "Little princess, I am here, don't be afraid."
"noob!"
The familiar voice made Jing Xuan open her eyes forcefully, and she saw a man running towards her with an anxious look on his face, his long hair brushing across his handsome face, revealing a pair of eyes full of heartache.
Chu Mo, you have successfully saved the emperor again...
Huh? Why again?
With this question in mind, Jing Xuan fainted.
Chu Mo carefully held the bloodstained kitten in his arms. The kitten was not as lively and naughty as usual. Its body was soft and fragile, so weak that Chu Mo did not dare to use any force for fear of hurting her.
He quickly picked up the kitten and rushed to the bedroom, shouting to the people around him, "Call a doctor!"
Wen Zhixun immediately made arrangements, glanced at the bewildered child opposite him, his eyes slightly deep, and said, "Call the county governor as well."
The group hurried to the bedroom, and Chu Mo put her on the bed, not caring whether the bed would get dirty.
Soon the veterinarian came with a medicine box.
He knew that General Chu cared about the kitten, so he didn't say much and immediately began to wipe the blood off the kitten, apply medicine and bandage it.
The wound was not big but very deep. It hurt even more after applying the medicine. Jing Xuan meowed softly in pain and gasped for breath, which made people feel heartbroken.
Chu Mo clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth, making a crackling sound.
At this time, Wen Zhixun came quietly and whispered in his ear, "Li Sheng is here."
Chu Mo's eyes were cold, he snorted coldly, turned around and was about to leave.
Wen Zhixun hurriedly called him back: "Show some mercy to the county magistrate."
Chu Mo didn't respond to him and just turned and left.
Wen Zhixun looked at his back and sighed softly.
He was so impulsive that he was very similar to the arrogant and inconvenient young master of the Chu family when he was young.
…
In the hall, Li Sheng paced anxiously, his forehead covered with cold sweat.
God knows, when he learned that Ale had hurt the kitten, his heart almost jumped out.
As the saying goes, when beating a dog, you have to look at its owner.
Everyone in Yu'nan City knew that General Chu got a little white cat and he loved it dearly. He would get angry even if his men hurt the kitten, let alone the young son of a county magistrate.
Worried about A Le, he had no choice but to send someone to contact Li Qing and then rushed to the general's mansion without stopping.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and couldn't help shaking his hands.
At this time, there was a sound outside the door, and he immediately turned around and leaned down: "Li Sheng, the governor of Yunan City, greets General Dingguo."
Chu Mo ignored him and walked straight past him to sit in the main seat, tapping his knuckles lightly on the armrest, making a series of "tapping" sounds, making the quiet and somewhat eerie atmosphere even more tense.
Chu Mo didn't say anything, and Li Sheng didn't dare to stand up. He knelt motionlessly for half an hour. Just when his knees were about to give out, Chu Mo's cold voice came: "Get up."
Li Sheng shivered from the cold and stood up tremblingly.
He looked up at Chu Mo cautiously, but saw that his eyes were full of frost and ice, which was so cold that it made his heart tighten.
Li Sheng suppressed his fear and said, "I am guilty!"
"What crime?"
Li Sheng: "I, your humble servant, failed to educate my son properly, and he was injured..."
Chu Mo raised his eyes, his gaze was like lightning striking at Li Sheng, and he opened his mouth without any emotion: "It is indeed a serious crime."
Li Sheng's Adam's apple moved slightly: "I will definitely educate my rebellious son well and let him be around your favor in the future."
Chu Mo played with the teacup in his hand and asked in an ambiguous tone, "Anything else?
Li Sheng closed his eyes tightly: "Your subordinate..."
"General, the military advisor and Miss Li want to see you." The voice of his subordinates came from outside the door.
Chu Mo's face darkened, and he said coldly: "You are really calculating to invite Miss Li here!"
Li Sheng knelt down in a hurry, wanting to cry but without tears: "No, I dare not."
Two people walked in from outside the door. The man was Wen Zhixun and the woman was wearing a blue dress. Although her appearance was not stunning, she was gentle and elegant with outstanding temperament. She had her hair tied in a bun, but her face looked very young.
Chu Mo looked at Li Qing, and the coldness in his eyes dissipated a little: "Why is Miss Li here?"
Li Qing bowed slightly and said softly, "My brother is naughty and has displeased the general. He should be severely punished. Li Qing knows that it is wrong, but still begs the general to calm down."
Chu Mo pursed his lips, glanced at Wen Zhixun who was looking at the sky and the earth but not at him, and curled his lips coldly: "As expected of you, you are Advisor Wen, you have a good plan."
Knowing that he would be impulsive, and also knowing that he would not vent his anger on Li Qing, she came with her so that she could stop him and also so that he would not blame her.
Wen Zhixun touched his nose subconsciously and bowed modestly: "I dare not, I dare not."
"Hmph!" Chu Mo snorted coldly, looking at Li Sheng on the ground and said, "My cat is naughty and loves to wear new clothes. I remember that there is a famous embroiderer in Lord Li's house who is from the Jade Embroidery Pavilion in the capital. Is that true or not?"
Li Sheng's heart skipped a beat and he thought it was all over.
His Adam's apple moved slightly, and he said with difficulty: "Yes, I will go back to the mansion immediately to call Yunniang."
The people in the backyard love Yunniang's cooking skills the most. Now that Yunniang has been transferred to the general's mansion, the backyard will make him restless again!
Chu Mo ignored Li Sheng's suffering and just said calmly: "In that case, thank you very much, Lord Li."
Li Sheng wiped the sweat off his face and said quickly, "No, no, I will go back home right now."
Wen Zhixun, who was standing by, said in a cold voice, "By the way, Lord Li, your precious son is still in the backyard, remember to claim him back."
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away." Li Sheng hunched over and left in a hurry.
Chu Mo snorted heavily: "He still got it cheap!"
Wen Zhixun rubbed his brows and said, "I heard that you went a little too far."
Chu Mo paused and looked away: "How is Xiaobai?"
"The doctor said that if you take good care of yourself in the next few days, there will be no problem." After Wen Zhixun finished speaking, he looked at Li Qing and said, "Thank you for your help, Miss Li."
Li Qing shook his head gently: "How could that be? I didn't help at all."
Wen Zhixun: "Thanks to the girl for giving us a way out, otherwise the situation would have remained stalemated."
Chu Mo looked at Li Qing: "From now on, Li Le should not come to the mansion again, and Miss Li can relax."
Li Qing smiled and said, "Indeed, thank you, General."
After she finished speaking, she also walked away slowly.
Wen Zhixun looked at Chu Mo and said disapprovingly again: "I heard that you are too impulsive."
Chu Mo looked away and whispered, "I know."
Wen Zhixun felt a lump in his throat and didn't know what to say.
He felt a little distressed.
The young man who was full of vigor and vitality and rode a horse in fine clothes in those days, finally put away his arrogance and became cautious, looking ahead and behind, hesitant and careful with every step he took.
Because behind him were tens of thousands of Chu family soldiers, and behind him was the huge Dasui.
These burdens forced him to grow and mature, but also caused him unbearable pain. He was only twenty-three years old, but he had to bear these suffocating responsibilities.
Chu Mo interrupted his thoughts, "I'll go see Xiaobai."
Wen Zhixun thought about it and walked towards the bedroom with him.
As I approached the bedroom, I heard bursts of laughter.
"General Shen, Xiaobai doesn't like to eat citrus fruits! Don't feed him!"
"Hey you little brat, what do you think Xiao Hui likes to eat?"
"Xiaobai must like to eat fish."
"Do I need to tell you that?!"
“Meow meow meow!!”
Are you going to feed it or not?
The princess is hungry! It’s going to make trouble!
Six men surrounded the bed, holding all kinds of food in their hands. They were smilingly teasing the little white cat whose head was wrapped in gauze but whose paws were fiercely patting the wooden bed.
Chu Mo looked at the scene in the house, thinking that the little guy had just woken up and was being disturbed by this group of people. Suddenly, the veins on his forehead throbbed.
He was so angry that he shouted, "Get out of here!"
The people in the house were so frightened that they trembled all over. Jing Xuan also exploded into a little ball of fur, looking at the entrance with horror on her face.
Seeing that things were not going well, the men led by Chen Fu ran away faster than rabbits, leaving Jing Yu alone... No, a cat was staring at Chu Mo stupidly.
Wen Zhixun beside him also left quietly, leaving the man and the cat alone.
Chu Mo walked to the bed, gently held the kitten in his arms, and stroked her fur. Jing Xuan squinted her eyes comfortably, with a look of enjoyment on her face.
"Does it still hurt?"
Jing Xuan raised her little face, her little whiskers trembled slightly, and her amber eyes reflected Chu Mo's figure.
She gently rubbed Chu Mo's cheek and meowed softly.
——It doesn’t hurt anymore, it doesn’t hurt anymore.
I wasn't lying to him, it really didn't hurt.
Oddly enough, she felt great pain at the moment of being hit, but when she woke up she had lost all sense of pain.
Maybe it’s because kittens have excellent healing abilities.
Chu Mo couldn't help but smile again: "So good."
Jing Xuan hummed twice in her heart and thought proudly: Of course, who am I? I am the seventh princess of Dasui, the most favored little princess, how can I not be obedient? snort!
Chu Mo seemed to sense the kitten's emotions, smiled and pinched the little pink plum blossom paw, and said softly: "Fortunately, you are okay..."
Jing Yu was stunned and lowered her eyes.
Just now in her dream, she finally remembered why Chu Mo succeeded in saving the emperor again.
Because Chu Mo had saved her a long, long time ago, but she was still young and frightened at the time, and rarely recalled what happened then.
But she has never forgotten that year when, in the prison cell that was as dark as the abyss, the young man came in light armor, bringing with him the scorching sun and warmth.
His eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting, and he said with a gentle smile: "Your servant Chu Mo, I am late to save you."
"Little princess, I am here, don't be afraid."
