Tonight, the palace is destined to be a sleepless night.
However, that doesn't stop some people from sleeping soundly.
The Empress looked at Qiuqiu in Eunuch Liu's arms, not daring to even hold her. She shook her body and said, "I only asked you to bring Qiuqiu into the palace. How dare you!"
Eunuch Liu cried out in protest, "Your Majesty, Miss Qiuqiu is fine. She stuck her tongue out herself. Look, she's just asleep!"
Chiu Chiu was breathing steadily, leaning her head on Eunuch Liu's shoulder and sleeping soundly, but she still had a bit of her tongue sticking out and would occasionally slurp her saliva.
It's clear that she truly keeps her "dumb beauty" persona in mind at all times.
The Empress placed her pale fingers under Qiuqiu's nose and breathed a sigh of relief when she felt her breathing. She looked at Yuewen, who was sitting quietly to the side, and asked, "What should we do now, Imperial Advisor?"
Yuewen thought for a moment and said, "Sleep."
"who?"
Yuewen was surprised that the Empress had an accent, and repeated, "Sleep, sleep."
"Who's sleeping?" the Empress asked in surprise. How could anyone be sleeping at this hour!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
Queen: Oh, except for Chuchu.
Jiang Jiaoyue: "Master means that children won't grow tall if they don't sleep."
"Chirp, sleep? Isn't she asleep?"
Yuewen said, "His Majesty is not in danger at the moment. If Qiuqiu wants to save His Majesty, then Qiuqiu must be willing. If we wake Qiuqiu up now, we will be forcing him to do so."
"Your Majesty, let things take their natural course; the opportunity will come naturally."
The Empress couldn't afford to gamble, but she had no other choice.
Fearing that forcibly waking Qiuqiu would disrupt the opportunity, she placed Qiuqiu in a side hall and stayed by Emperor Jingming's bedside all night without daring to close her eyes.
The candlelight in Zhengyang Palace flickered and shone all night, as everyone waited for the little dumpling in the side hall to wake up. But the child in question was fast asleep, soundly enjoying her sleep.
Just as dawn was breaking, Chirp rolled over and reached out her little hand to touch something furry.
The familiar touch made her reflexively open her eyes. Uncle Cat is back?
Chiu Chiu opened her eyes groggily, her vision blurry. It took her a long time to realize that the furry creature in front of her wasn't Uncle Cat, but a big black cat that looked just like Uncle Cat.
The black cat sat gracefully beside Qiuqiu, as if deliberately watching her wake up. Seeing that Qiuqiu was awake, it reached out a paw and patted her forehead. It then patted the blanket twice, seemingly urging her to go back to sleep.
Oh my god, what a gentle cat!
The chubby little cat pounced and pinned the big black cat down, rubbing against it frantically.
As someone who's been "bullied" by cats all year round, heaven knows how rare it is to meet a gentle cat!
I love it!
The big black cat's ears were sticking out from being weighed down by Chiu Chiu; it was much heavier than the kitten it had rescued.
"Meow!"
Chiu Chiu had forgotten that she wasn't at home; the unfamiliar environment didn't arouse her vigilance at all. Just as she was happily rubbing against the big black cat, a shrill meow rang in her ears.
She shuddered, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw a flash of orange pounce towards her. Instinctively, she rolled over on the bed to dodge the deadly cat punch.
[A vicious cat!]
The little orange cat was so angry that its fur stood on end. It had just returned from hunting and saw the fat fish bullying its foster mother. "Meow!"
It will fight for its family!
Chirp: [Let's have a fight!]
The cat and its kitten were poised to attack, but the big black cat, feeling a headache coming on, subdued them with a single punch each.
It's already stressful enough, but taking care of kids makes it even more stressful!
It turns out that regardless of race, anyone who takes care of children is bound to be irritable.
The Empress, who was guarding Emperor Jingming in the main hall of Zhengyang Palace, suddenly felt a daze and was startled. She immediately stood up and ran to Yuewen: "Imperial Preceptor, I heard a cat meowing!"
Eunuch Liu asked in confusion, "A cat? Zhengyang Palace doesn't keep cats."
Yuewen opened her eyes, lifted her robe and stood up. She calculated with her fingers and understood.
"The time has come, Your Majesty, we can go find Chuchu now."
As dawn broke, the first rays of sunlight shone into Zhengyang Palace.
The group entered the side hall in a grand procession. Chiu Chiu, with her messy hair, stared at Little Fatty Orange. The big black cat said they should love each other, but she felt that they were like oil and water.
Seeing the Empress enter with her entourage, Qiuqiu became even more arrogant, spreading her arms wide in a menacing gesture towards Little Fatty Orange, [See these? These are my underlings. One command and they'll take you down!]
Having been a stray since birth, the chubby orange cat naturally knew the power of two-legged creatures. The little fish in front of him looked just like a person and had a group of two-legged followers; it was not to be trifled with!
The little chubby orange cat's ears flew back, its back arched, threatening Chiu Chiu. Just as it was about to run away quickly, Yuewen, who was prepared, scooped it up.
"Meow?!" The chubby orange cat's pupils contracted, its face filled with confusion. How could such an agile cat be caught so easily?!
Chirp grinned and mocked it, but before she could swagger around, Yuewen's other hand had already landed on her.
Yuewen said, "Your Majesty, the opportune moment has arrived."
Chance Encounter & Chance Encounter: "???"
Yuewen dismissed the Empress and the others, leaving only Jiang Jiaoyue holding the restless little chubby orange cat. He wanted to talk to the two little ones.
"Chirp chirp, there's something very important waiting for you to do now."
Just as Chiu Chiu was about to nod, she suddenly remembered her "silly beauty" persona and stuck out her tongue in front of Yue Wen.
In short, there's nothing I can do.
Yuewen: "..."
"Chirp chirp, I know you can do it."
Chirp got anxious: [Three words: Can't do it.]
Yuewen was not in a hurry and said slowly, "If something happens to His Majesty, it will cause chaos throughout the world."
"The world is in chaos, and heroes rise up in times of turmoil. You can't save anyone. Life and death are predestined, and fortune is found in danger!"
"How about we take a gamble?"
"You're betting on the fate of your entire family and the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Chirp: 【!!!】
This imperial advisor is really skilled! He's different from a charlatan.
Qiuqiu didn't know how Yuewen knew she was going to save her family, but if His Majesty got into trouble, her family would definitely be implicated.
Her maternal grandfather and uncle worked so hard to build their empire, they couldn't let others have a chance to take advantage of them.
This can definitely be done!
Chiu Chiu patted her chest and declared, "I'll take care of this!"
Yuewen curled the corners of her lips, and the little fish took the bait.
"Chirp chirp, Your Majesty has used witchcraft. According to my divination, you and your partner are the ones who will untie the knot."
The gathering of the morning sun signifies the appearance of a destined person.
When the first ray of sunlight shone in, it was Chuchu and this little orange cat who appeared. If I'm not mistaken, they are the ones who solved the problem!
"Now I hope you can help me find a way to save His Majesty. Do you have the determination?"
Chiu Chiu and Little Fatty Orange exchanged a glance, then looked away in disgust.
"Meow meow meow!" I won't do it with her!
Chirp Chirp: [Don't be mean to the cat, I can manage on my own!]
