Chuck, chuck, a burst of silver bell-like laughter came from far away. Although he couldn't see clearly, from the size, Zhu Youxiao could tell that it was a little girl of five or six years old, running towards him happily after something on the ground.
"I've traveled through time! I didn't lie to you, did I?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
Zhu Youxiao suddenly looked up and looked for the source of the sound in surprise.
"Have you seen this super beautiful girl?" The voice came again, but it seemed to be coming from all directions and it couldn't be found where it was specifically.
"Oh my god, it's you." Zhu Youxiao recognized him. Isn't this the big liar? He even made it into surround sound!
"Hehe, how rude of you." The voice didn't sound too angry.
Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes, straightened his back, coughed dryly, and said in a deep voice: "I am the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Who are you? Tell me your name quickly. System, immortal, God..."
"Don't worry about what I am. It's enough for you to know that I can give you the golden finger."
The voice did not take Emperor Zhu Youxiao seriously, and seemed to sneer, "However, it is not easy for you to get what you want. You must complete the task."
Goldfinger?!
Zhu Youxiao blinked his eyes, laughed, and said, "You're really funny. I'm the emperor now. I'm the supreme ruler, don't you know? I can do whatever I want. Why do I need a cheat code?"
As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao stretched out his middle finger and pointed it randomly in one direction, teasing, "You don't have to give it to me. I'll immediately plate this finger with 24K gold. Don't you think it's a gold finger? Haha."
A modern person travels through time, and he's a brilliant man who's read "Stealing the Ming Dynasty." Isn't he someone who knows five hundred years in the past and five hundred years in the future, who can pacify the world with his literary skills and determine the fate of the world with his martial arts skills, who waves a feather fan and whose IQ crushes everyone?
Zhu Youxiao thought so. He thought, "I came here from a higher starting point. It's not like I'm suffering. Why do I need a bicycle? What kind of bullshit task do I need? Being an emperor is so tiring, I won't do it!"
The voice was silent for a long while. Just when Zhu Youxiao thought he had been intimidated into silence, he spoke again slowly, "Don't be so hasty to show off. With your limited knowledge of history, it's really not easy to make a name for yourself."
As if knowing that Zhu Youxiao was about to retort, the voice continued: "Of course, you have traveled through time and space to become the emperor, you are not miserable, so let me, your little sister, grow up with you!"
Sister? Zhu Youxiao blinked, and just as he opened his mouth, someone pulled his sleeve.
"Big brother, my name is Xiao Ji!" The little Lolita who was running and playing came to Zhu Youxiao's side at some point, raised her little face, and pulled his sleeve.
Little chicken? Zhu Youxiao looked down at it. Although it was still blurred, he could still see that it was a small round face with baby fat.
"You should go." The big liar didn't wait for Zhu Youxiao to continue speaking, and said threateningly: "Treat my little sister well, otherwise - hmph!"
Zhu Youxiao was about to refuse and say a few more words to this guy, but the little girl at his feet tugged at his sleeve again and said crisply: "Big brother, Xiao Ji is giving you her favorite cat, you have to do your best!"
Before he could finish his words, a furry creature quickly jumped onto his shoulder.
What the hell? Before Zhu Youxiao could react, he felt dizzy and then everything went dark.
"Ah——" A hoarse scream was heard right next to his ear, which scared Zhu Youxiao so much that he almost jumped out of his chair.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the frightened "Fengsheng Madam" screaming and jumping. Zhu Youxiao blinked, and the furry feeling in his hand made him look down again.
"Meow!"
Zhu Youxiao widened his eyes. It was a white kitten with long fur, a big head and round eyes. It was looking at him cutely and calling out.
What is amazing is the kitten’s eyes, one blue and one yellow, clear and transparent, crystal clear.
Oh my god! Zhu Youxiao finally understood that it wasn't a dream!
"Lady Fengsheng" Keshi prepared the meal, which of course included the "dragon eggs" that Emperor Tianqi loved the most, and she delivered it personally.
The only person who could enter the inner hall without being summoned and come before the half-asleep Emperor Tianqi was Keshi. Historically, even the later Empress Zhang Yan did not have this privilege.
When Ke Shi saw that Emperor Tianqi was half-leaning in the armchair and fell asleep, she took a blanket and tried to cover him with it.
But just as she got closer, she suddenly saw the furry thing in Emperor Tianqi's hand, and two shining "different eyes" staring at her. She couldn't see it clearly for a moment, and she couldn't help but scream and jump back.
Zhu Youxiao was woken up, and the palace maids were also attracted by Keshi's screams.
Keshi's scream attracted many palace maids and eunuchs, who gathered around her, not knowing what was going on.
Zhu Youxiao also came to his senses, snorted in displeasure, and frowned at the palace servants who had gathered around him, saying, "That's my pet. Why are you making such a fuss? Why don't you leave?"
"Meow!" The cat opened its round eyes and called out twice to the surroundings, with a bit of a dog-like attitude.
The palace servants looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they had never seen this cat before, they all bowed and retreated.
"Your Majesty..." Keshi took a few steps forward, forcing a smile on her face, and said, "So this is the cat your Majesty keeps. I've never seen one before. It scared me."
The cat played a big role in scaring the old witch.
Zhu Youxiao felt a surge of pleasure in his heart. He reached out and gently stroked the cat's soft fur, saying lightly, "This is my new cat. Look at its eyes, one yellow and one blue, and its fur is pure white. I named it - Xiaobai."
Ke Shi took a closer look and saw that it was indeed the case. She smiled and said, "I have heard of it. It is called the Linqing Lion Cat, also known as the Mandarin Duck Eyed Lion Cat."
Zhu Youxiao also liked cats in his previous life, but he was too busy with school and work to have time to raise one, so he really didn't know the breed of this "hetero-eyed" cat.
"Your Majesty, lunch is ready. I cooked it myself." Ke Shi shook off the lion cat and Xiaobai and smiled even more brightly.
Zhu Youxiao sniffed and smelled the fragrance of the food, so he said, "Let's eat, I still have a midday court to attend!"
Keshi felt the Emperor Tianqi's indifference, which she had never experienced before. When the meal was served, she showed her utmost courtesy, constantly serving food to the Emperor and saying flattering words.
Zhu Youxiao's eyes swept over the charming and attentive Keshi from time to time. He didn't know why a woman could be so cruel and harm the concubines in the harem, leaving Emperor Tianqi without an heir.
However, the food was indeed delicious, especially the special dish "dragon eggs", which tasted neither fishy nor muttony and was very delicious.
Emperor Tianqi lost his mother when he was young and was often treated harshly when he was raised by Xi Li. His wet nurse Keshi was very kind to him, and it would not be excessive for him to repay her appropriately after he ascended the throne.
But the foolishness of Emperor Tianqi was that he allowed Keshi to dominate the harem, act tyrannically, and even harm concubines and princes, resulting in Emperor Tianqi having no heir.
