Huo Youcai sneered, "Dyed, right?"
Pan Quan's face immediately darkened, because Huo Youcai was right; the golden feathers of this myna bird were indeed dyed.
Upon seeing this, Huo Youcai's mood instantly improved. He sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of hot tea: "Gold is the color reserved for royalty. Pan Mazi, do you want your family to die too soon?"
Upon hearing this, Pan Quan's expression changed slightly, and he retorted loudly, "What the hell are you talking about?"
After saying that, Pan Quan immediately threw the myna bird out of his hand, as if he had picked up a hot potato.
"Bring wealth, bring wealth." After being thrown out, the myna bird fell to the ground, stood up shakily, and flew back to Pan Quan's side.
Pan Quan remembered what Huo Youcai had just said—that he never wanted to see the myna bird again—and slapped Zhao Cai away with a wave of his hand.
Huo Youcai frowned and said, "Pan Mazi, are you crazy?"
Pan Quan sneered, "He's just a little beast. He's dead, so be it."
Yuan Dan immediately slapped Huo Youcai's hand in displeasure: "Chirp chirp."
This is intolerable.
Get him!
It's not something that can be done right now.
Without Gan Wang's backing, Xiao Niao could only have Huo Youcai bring the myna bird back. But it was just a myna bird, so Pan Quan considered it a gift to them.
“Little Yuanyuan, this myna bird…” Huo Youcai hesitated as he looked at the little bird perched on the table.
"Chirp chirp." Yuan Dan pointed at him, the meaning was clear: you raise him.
The Prince Gan's mansion already has three birds. If they add a talking myna, wouldn't that cause chaos?
Besides, Xiao Changqi had already gotten angry once because she agreed to help Sun Jianchou take care of the little bald boy. If she brought another myna bird back, Xiao Changqi might withhold her bamboo seeds when he returned to the capital.
Huo Youcai is also a bird lover. He had wanted to raise a bird like Xiao Yuanyuan, but he couldn't find such a plump bird anywhere in the mountains.
As a chubby boy, Young Master Huo also wanted to raise a little fat bird.
Unfortunately, birds of Xiaoyuanyuan's size are really hard to find.
In the end, Huo Youcai took the myna bird home and had someone boil water to wash off the dye on its body.
After Yuandan and Jinjin were sent back to the Prince's Mansion, Yuandan resumed her daily routine of eating, sleeping, and doing weight loss exercises.
After ten days of this, on New Year's Day, news finally arrived that the Gan King had returned in triumph with his troops.
At that moment, the little bird was following the old steward when it saw a servant rushing in and reporting to the old steward, "Your Highness... Your Highness is back."
Yuandan immediately raised its head: "Chirp chirp??"
real?
Xiao Changqi is back?
Although they were delayed for a few days on the road, Xiao Changqi and the others did indeed return.
Xiao Changqi did not return to the Prince's Mansion, but went to the palace to report to the old emperor. The old emperor naturally bestowed a lot of gifts upon him, and then sent Xiao Changqi out of the palace.
He never asked Xiao Changqi about his injuries from beginning to end.
The imperial court is heartless; the old emperor had no regard for Xiao Changqi as his son, and Xiao Changqi did not regard the old emperor as his father either.
The relationship between the two was solely that of ruler and subject.
After leaving the palace, it started snowing again in the capital.
Knowing that the prince would definitely enter the palace first upon returning to the capital, the chief steward sent a carriage to wait at the palace gate.
Xiao Changqi did not ride in the carriage, but instead mounted a chestnut horse and rode away.
On New Year's Day, thinking that Xiao Changqi would not be back for a while after entering the palace, I went to Qique Courtyard to play leaf cards with Jin Jin and the others. Leaf cards are cards made of leaves.
The stakes were their respective snacks.
However, on New Year's Day, she was reluctant to use her bamboo seeds as a wager, so she tricked a few fruits from a sparrow into using them as a wager.
