The implication is that you have to treat me well.
Xiao Changqi rubbed the little bird, raised an eyebrow and said, "Am I not good to you?"
Yuan Dan coughed reservedly and said, "It's so-so."
Looking at the little bird's appearance, Xiao Changqi couldn't help but let a faint, almost imperceptible smile appear in his eyes.
Then the little bird said, "You have to be very, very good to me, otherwise I might still go back."
Xiao Changqi responded softly, "Mm."
Yuandan jumped happily onto his shoulder: "Okay, the story is over, I'm going to sleep now."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the little bird tilted its head and looked at him again, asking, "Your Majesty, may I sleep in your dragon bed?"
Xiao Changqi glanced at the naughty little bird: "Approved."
"Good night, Your Majesty."
New Year's Day flew from the man's shoulder to the pillow, squatting there round and chubby, burying its head in the feathers.
Don't be fooled by how well the little bird sleeps now; when it gets drowsy, it will lie sprawled out on its back and love to use its little claws to tug at its hair.
The tyrant, who hadn't had a good night's sleep for several nights in a row, slept exceptionally well that night. When he woke up the next morning, sure enough, a few strands of his hair were caught by the little bird's claws again.
Xiao Changqi had no choice but to first free his hair from the bird's claws before getting up to call someone in to serve him.
The palace servants all knew that His Majesty hadn't been sleeping well these past few days. Every morning when he woke up, he carried an intimidatingly low-pressure aura, so the servants dared not make too much noise when they were doing their work.
They were afraid that His Majesty would punish them for being disrespectful in front of the Emperor.
When the palace maid who came to set up the dragon bed saw a small bird perched on the pillow, she exclaimed in surprise, and this exclamation woke Yuandan up.
"Chirp?" Yuan Dan opened her eyes groggily, and the palace servants had already rushed to find the chief eunuch.
So on New Year's Day, all we saw was a hurried figure running away.
"Chirp chirp?" The sparrow, hiding on the windowsill, only dared to peek out its head when it saw that Yuandan had woken up and that no one was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Owner.
May I come inside?
Yuan Dan leaned lazily against the headboard, and upon hearing this, she slightly raised her small, beady eyes: "Come in."
The sparrow immediately flew over: "Master, why didn't you go home last night?"
"He's with Xiao Changqi."
"What about the Emperor?" Sparrow looked around.
"He went to the morning court session."
As the two little birds were talking, the palace servants who had heard the chief eunuch's suggestion ran back.
They discovered that there was another little bird on the dragon bed.
Palace servant: "...!!"
He really suffered a lot of shock today!
"Um, Little Yuanyuan..." the palace maid said almost obsequiously to the little pink ball on the bed, "This is His Majesty's dragon bed. If you want to play, may you go somewhere else?"
"Chirp chirp??" Yuan Dan tilted her head blankly, perfectly portraying her complete ignorance.
"My lady, please have pity on your servant and let me go play somewhere else."
As the palace maid spoke, she reached out and grabbed Yuandan and the sparrow from the bed, placed them on the ground, and gently pushed them: "Go outside and play."
The palace maid, thinking she had handled the situation properly, turned around and continued making the bed.
Yuandan and the sparrow exchanged a glance, and the sparrow said, "Master, I still have quite a few wild fruits stored up there."
Yuan Dan gave a deep "hmm" and then followed the sparrow back to the palace where the little birds lived.
So when Xiao Changqi returned from court and specially accompanied the little bird for lunch, he found that the Hall of Mental Cultivation was empty.
"Where is Yuanyuan?" He turned to look at the chief eunuch behind him and asked in a deep voice.
The chief eunuch hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, Little Yuanyuan is playful; she's probably off playing somewhere again."
Xiao Changqi gave him a cold glance, and the chief eunuch immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
