Ever since she guessed that she might have some connection with Yuan Qing's sister, Yuan Dan had been thinking about having a chance to visit the Prime Minister's residence every day.
But for now, she'll play it safe and focus on surviving the tyrant's clutches in the future.
Night falls.
After eating a bamboo seed on New Year's Day, it nestled on the edge of the desk and fell asleep, a chubby little ball with its head buried in soft, fluffy feathers, only the single, dull feather on its head showing.
Before going to bed, Xiao Changqi considered whether to have someone take the chubby little bird back to the Birch Nest Courtyard, but seeing how peacefully and obediently the bird was sleeping, he ultimately decided to leave it in the main courtyard.
I slept well all night.
When she woke up on New Year's Day, Xiao Changqi was no longer in the mansion. Lvya had been punished yesterday, but she still managed to take care of her.
Before leaving home, Xiao Changqi instructed the old steward to find some fresh bamboo shoots, so he ate breakfast as soon as he woke up on New Year's Day and drank some spring water from the back mountain.
The military camp was not busy with official duties, and Xiao Changqi only went to report for duty before returning.
Furthermore, if he really gets busy in the military camp, the emperor will become worried.
In the past, when Xiao Changqi returned from the military camp, he would go straight to his study to read military books, but now that there was a noisy little bird in the mansion, things were a little different.
"Where's Yuanyuan?" Xiao Changqi returned to the courtyard but didn't see the sturdy little pink ball. He asked the boss in a low voice.
The head steward replied respectfully, "Your Highness, Yuanyuan is currently sunbathing in the garden."
New Year's Day is all about sunbathing, but not entirely.
To be precise, she was doing a workout exercise.
When she was in human form, Yuan Dan never had any worries about losing weight. But after turning into a bird, she suddenly found herself struggling with weight loss.
Fortunately, I took an aerobics course when I was taking credits at university on New Year's Day, and I adapted it into a set of weight loss exercises.
So when Xiao Changqi came over, he saw a chubby little bird wriggling around, flapping its wings vigorously, occasionally moving its short legs, its feathers trembling with the movements.
This scene looked rather comical, yet the little bird looked completely serious.
Xiao Changqi's usually expressionless face slowly curled into a smile when he saw the little fat bird wiggle its round, plump bottom.
The old steward, standing to the side, suddenly felt that the gloomy and cold aura emanating from his prince seemed to have dissipated somewhat, replaced by a hint of pleasure.
Halfway through my New Year's Day aerobics session, I suddenly sensed a burning gaze upon me.
She stopped what she was doing and looked precisely in the direction where Xiao Changqi was.
The man standing against the light lost some of his usual aloofness and unapproachability, gaining a touch of noble elegance, and his handsome face seemed to carry a faint, imperceptible smile.
Yuan Dan was slightly taken aback until the man's indifferent voice rang out as always.
"come over."
New Year:"……"
Do you think you're barking at a dog?
On New Year's Day, she stood still and quietly rolled her eyes before slowly walking over.
As soon as she got closer, the man bent down and picked her up. Yuan Dan, who had been doing aerobics for half a day, was indeed a little tired, so she lay comfortably in the man's arms.
Xiao Changqi couldn't stand her leisurely appearance, so he raised his hand and draped Yuandan over the man's shoulder.
Now, Yuandan had to use her claws to grip the man's outer garment to keep her balance.
New Year's Day: "Chirp chirp chirp".
How could you be so mean?
What if I fall?
Xiao Changqi glanced coldly at the chirping little bird, his dark and deep gaze seemingly tangible, settling heavily on her.
On New Year's Day, everything fell silent. She timidly perched on the man's shoulder, becoming a quiet little bird.
