I was really angry on New Year's Day, so angry that I wouldn't even eat my favorite bamboo seeds.
Xiao Changqi said he would only feed the bird one bamboo seed a day, but the bird is a bird with only consciousness and its behavior is just like a human's, so it definitely needs to eat three meals a day.
But at this moment, the little bird curled up on the table like a pink ball of fluff, burying its head in its warm feathers, completely unmoved by the bamboo fruit in the man's hand.
"Are you really not going to eat it?" Xiao Changqi frowned as he saw the bird's pink feathers all over its body seemed to be protesting.
The bird responded to the man with a remarkably spirited chirp!
I won't eat it!
Even if I starve to death on New Year's Day, I won't eat a single bamboo seed from you!
“If that’s the case, I won’t force you any further.” Xiao Changqi put the bamboo fruit back into the plate and called out to the people outside, “There are no birds eating bamboo fruit in the manor, so throw away all the bamboo fruit we bought this morning.”
Upon hearing the man's words, Yuan Dan, who had been pretending to be a quail, instantly poked out its round bird head and glared angrily at the man with its tiny bean-like eyes: "Chirp!"
You dare!
After berate the future tyrant, Yuandan pounced with lightning speed, picked up the bamboo with its beak, and while cracking off the outer shell, it complained to the man, "Chirp chirp chirp!!"
Who said there are no birds to eat?!
You can accuse me of being a spy, but that's fine.
They even tried to skimp on my food.
Is this how you raise birds?
Xiao Changqi raised an eyebrow: "..."
Although I couldn't understand what the bird was saying, I figured it wasn't anything nice.
"Small in size, but quite bold." Xiao Changqi sneered as he poked the little bird's belly, which was hidden by its feathers.
On New Year's Day, she sat on the table pecking at bamboo berries, then turned away from the man as if throwing a tantrum.
Xiao Changqi raised his eyebrows even higher, it seemed that he was not only bold, but also had a temper.
Just as the man and the bird were standing in silence, the head steward led in a royal physician: "Your Highness, Physician Su has arrived."
Yesterday, Xiao Changqi sent someone to inquire about the imperial physician who treated the pets kept by the concubines in the palace. However, because one of the concubines caught a cold last night, Physician Su was invited away, so he was only able to come to treat the bird today.
"Your Highness, this humble official pays his respects." Physician Su, carrying a medicine chest on his back, first bowed to Xiao Changqi, who was sitting at the table leisurely sipping tea.
Xiao Changqi nodded indifferently, glancing at the little bird that was still facing away from him: "Let Yuanyuan take a look first."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Physician Su put down his medicine box and then, under Xiao Changqi's terrifying and intimidating gaze, stepped forward to examine the bird's condition.
But after examining the bird from all angles, Physician Su couldn't see that it looked sick, so he reached out to check its pulse for any abnormalities.
But just as Physician Su's hand was about to touch the little bird, he clearly felt that the prince's gaze on him had changed.
It has become even more sinister and terrifying.
Physician Su broke out in a cold sweat, his hands trembling as he wondered whether he should continue, but his strong will to survive compelled him to withdraw his hand.
"Your Highness, this little bird doesn't seem to have any problems," Physician Su reported in a trembling voice.
"Has Physician Su ever treated a bird before?" Xiao Changqi narrowed his phoenix eyes, his sharp gaze shooting straight at the terrified Physician Su.
Physician Su hurriedly replied, "This humble official once treated the thrush kept by Consort Shu."
"Does Physician Su know what kind of bird Yuanyuan is?" Xiao Changqi's voice was calm, but his powerful aura made people dare not fool him.
"This..." Imperial Physician Su glanced at the little bird, which was as plump as a pink ball, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "This humble official is ignorant."
