Rong Qi had originally told Jiao Jiao to rest at home for two days before coming to see her. However, she couldn't resist and went to Luoyue Pavilion the next afternoon.
At this moment, in the courtyard of Luoyue Pavilion, Feng Qinghuang was teaching the little snow wolf. In the month or so that she had been gone, the little snow wolf had been allowed to run wild, and now, fed by Tinglan, its entire body was shaped like a ball.
The snow wolf lay on a small stone table in the middle of the courtyard. Feng Qinghuang tapped the little snow wolf's nose to scold it, and the little snow wolf looked utterly hopeless.
"Little Xue, do you still remember you're the Snow Wolf King? You've eaten so much, how are you going to hunt? Ah... tell me, during the month I was away, didn't you constantly pester Tinglan for meat? Tinglan spoils you, feeding you so much, how am I going to carry you in the future? You're so fat now, you know that?"
Every time Feng Qinghuang spoke, Xiaoxue would paw at her with her front paws, signaling her to stop talking. She didn't want to do this either, but the meat was too delicious, and she couldn't help herself.
Feng Qinghuang swatted away its little paw: "Stop whining, whining won't work. Starting today, you'll have three meals a day, no extra meals allowed. And each meal will have a maximum of two pounds of meat, no more. Every morning you must run fifty laps in the yard, otherwise you'll skip the meat for today."
When the snow wolf heard its owner say that not only was its meat intake being reduced, but it also had to run fifty laps every day before it could eat, it pricked up its ears and looked at her with a face full of accusation, as if to say, "Master, are you serious? If you mistreat me like this, I'm going to go and complain to the mistress!"
Feng Qinghuang couldn't help but laugh: "So you still know to complain to my mother? Is it my mother who made you eat so much fat? Go ahead and see whose opinion my mother listens to."
The snow wolf's ears drooped, and it whimpered, expressing its dissatisfaction. In the palace, although the mistress's favorite beast was herself, comparing herself to her mistress was utterly incomparable, and she decided not to embarrass herself further.
It must be said that the little snow wolf is clever and very clear-headed.
Seeing the snow wolf looking listless, Feng Qinghuang was about to pick it up and make it run when Rong Qi walked in.
“Jiaojiao, fifty laps a day is too little for the Snow Wolf King. Think about it, if we release it back into the snowfield, it will face hunting every day. If it doesn’t catch any prey, it will starve to death. It won’t be like it is now, so fat that it can’t even walk. Besides, prey won’t just stand there waiting for it. In a day, it would have to do at least a hundred or so laps around this yard.”
When Blood Wolf King heard his former master's words, he was filled with disbelief. He thought his master had come to speak well of him, but instead, he was adding fuel to the fire.
The Blood Wolf King looked at him with resentful eyes, whimpering... "Have some decency! Running a hundred laps a day, how can it survive?!"
When Feng Qinghuang saw Rong Qi approaching, she temporarily forgot about the snow wolf.
"Aqi, what brings you here today?"
Rong Qi held her hand: "I miss Jiaojiao. A day apart feels like three autumns."
Feng Qinghuang chuckled to herself, "We just got back yesterday."
Rong Qi pulled her to sit down: "I came today because I have something else to tell Jiao Jiao. The palace will be holding a welcome banquet in a couple of days."
Feng Qinghuang asked in confusion, "A welcome feast? Who are we welcoming? My senior brothers?"
Rong Qi nodded: "Yes, Uncle said that it's rare for the royal families of the other three kingdoms to gather so together this time, so he wanted to hold a banquet to entertain them properly, which is also for the sake of peace among the four kingdoms. But I heard from Uncle that You Xuewu and Mu Yanzheng also came along this time."
"Wasn't You Xueming sending You Xuewu back? How come she's hanging out with Mu Yanzheng again?"
When Rong Qi heard this, he also found it strange, so he sent someone to investigate.
"You Xuewu was probably unwilling to accept being sent back, so she took the opportunity to escape. On the way, she happened to meet Mu Yanzheng, who was coming to Qinglong Kingdom, and the two of them came together."
Feng Qinghuang pouted: "These two really know how to cause trouble."
"If this banquet can lead to a peace agreement among the four countries, then even if they cause trouble again, they can be forgiven. The problem is that they might try to muddy the waters."
Feng Qinghuang stretched out her little fist: "Whoever dares to cause trouble, let the snow wolf bite him."
Rong Qi couldn't help but laugh when he heard Feng Qinghuang's words.
"Look at the snow wolf, do you think it can catch up with them?"
Feng Qinghuang turned to look at the snow wolf and sighed. It was time to get Xue's training started.
"Xiaoxue, hurry up and move, or you won't be able to catch up with me even if I bite you."
Little Snow looked at the two unscrupulous people with a wronged expression, stood up angrily, and ran out of Luoyue Pavilion to calm down.
Feng Qinghuang and Rong Qi exchanged a glance and shook their heads helplessly as they watched Xiaoxue run away frantically. This little one has quite a temper.
