King Jing seemed to have expected Li Yu to make such a suggestion, and he shook his head at him, his eyes then fell on Li Yu's abdomen.

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu immediately understood what King Jing meant. He was worried that he would be inconvenienced while carrying the little cotton-padded jacket.

Li Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm not raising it myself. I want to find a proper family to place it."

Although Qiu scolded the cat fiercely, Li Yu felt that Qiu must have some sincerity towards the cat. The guard brought Qiu here, and the cat had been staying in the cloth bag. Qiu must have known that if he really didn't want it, why would he go through all these troubles and throw the cat to King Jing's mansion?

She actually knelt down to King Jing for this cat. Although she cursed, she was actually helping the cat find another way out. This cat should have been living with Qiu in the cold palace since Qiu was demoted.

Qiu, who was once courted by countless people, now only has a cat by her side.

The praise when you are in glory is not as sincere as the companionship when you are in the lowest point.

I didn't expect that the noble concubine Liangliang, who was so high and mighty before, would bow her head and think about a pet cat...

Li Yu talked about the matter at hand. This was not a matter of principle. As Qiu said herself, she had answered King Jing's question and hoped that King Jing could help her.

Just treat it as an exchange.

King Jing originally refused because he was worried that Li Yu and the child would be in danger. Since Li Yu was not the one who wanted to raise

a cat, he had no objection. After Li Yu made up his mind, he asked Wang Xi to look for

a family that was suitable for raising a cat. This was a very small task, and Wang Xi quickly found a family that was well-off and willing to raise a cat. Piaoxue the cat would not be hungry if he went there, so it should be a good place.

Wang Xi quickly sent Piaoxue there. Considering that Piaoxue the cat might be upset if he was suddenly given away, Li Yu also asked Wang Xi to get some things that the cat would like and take them with him.

Everything went well at first, but the next day the family came to report that the cat had disappeared in the middle of the night.

Li Yu was stunned. What should he do?

The effort brought some trouble. He asked Wang Xi to send the cat away, so he couldn't just leave it alone. Li Yu hesitated for a while and asked Wang Xi to look for Piaoxue.

Wang Xi couldn't find it for a while.

In the middle of the night, a cat kept barking outside Li Yu's house, waking up Li Yu who was sleeping. King Jing helped Li Yu out of the house and saw Piaoxue in the yard, being chased by Li Yu's pet ducks and rabbits.

Li Yu's ducks and rabbits were very brave and were not afraid of cats at all.

King Jing took action and decisively separated them and took Piaoxue aside.

Compared to the previous few days, the cat has become dirtier. When it sees Li Yu and King Jing, it cries louder and louder.

Li Yu's mind moved. Could it be that the cat disappeared and ran to King Jing's mansion on its own?

But he and King Jing are not familiar with this cat. Why did the cat come to them?

Piaoxue cat kept meowing. Wang Xi prepared some food for it. Piaoxue ran over to smell it, licked it and walked away, still meowing.

What's wrong with this cat?

Li Yu kept wondering in his heart. He didn't understand the cat's mind.

But if it is a pet...

Li Yu smiled. He is also a fish pet. If his owner gave him to someone else, he...

might be very unhappy, and would... want to go back to find his owner!

So Piaoxue should want to go back to Qiu's?

Because it was carried out of the palace in a cloth bag, it didn't know the way back to the palace, and only knew the location of Prince Jing's Mansion, so it ran to Prince Jing's Mansion, hoping that he would send it back?

Li Yu turned to Prince Jing and said, "Tianchi, can you do me a favor?"

Prince Jing guessed what he was thinking, smiled and said, "No need. My people are also your people."

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu nodded with a smile, and ordered the guards who had brought Qiu back before to quietly send the cat back to Qiu.

He and Qiu were wrong, thinking that Piaoxue would have a better home after leaving the cold palace with harsh conditions. However, for Piaoxue, perhaps a nest of gold or silver is not as good as the nest next to its master?

Even he himself thinks that where Prince Jing is is his home, it should be the same principle.

Li Yu asked the guard to send Piaoxue back. Piaoxue seemed to understand, and her sapphire-like cat eyes sparkled.

Before leaving, Wang Xi wanted to give the cat a bath and wipe it clean, but the cat broke free from Wang Gonggong and ran to a corner of the yard. He dug in the soil twice and dug out something, and brought it to Li Yu's feet.

Wang Xi picked it up and saw that it was a small dried fish.

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu's mouth twitched, thank you so much, you gave the fish a dried fish! !

The guard sent Piaoxue away, and the system was refreshed the next step.

"Host, the main storyline of 'Sharing the Country with the Tyrant' is in progress, please be prepared."

Li Yu: "..."

He just sent Piaoxue away, what does it have to do with "Sharing the Country with the Tyrant"!

However, the system's meaning is obviously related, and maybe he will know it soon.

I always thought that this mission would not make progress until King Jing ascended the throne, but it turned out not to be the case.

The guard came back soon to report and told Li Yu that Qiu was very happy to see the cat that was lost and found. It turned out that Qiu regretted it after he went back and said that he would never send Piaoxue away again.

Although Li Yu worked in vain, Piaoxue's ending was unexpectedly good.

The guard also told Li Yu that for some reason, the guards in the cold palace were much more relaxed than usual.

Li Yu did not react to the guard's words, and King Jing frowned slightly.

The people imprisoned in the cold palace were those who had lost favor and were punished, and the guards would not change easily. Why did it change?

King Jing pondered for a long time and ordered Wang Xi to send a message to the palace.

King Jing also had people in the palace, but he almost never contacted them. It was extremely difficult to contact the other party.

But after waiting for another night, there was no news from the palace.

Even Li Yu felt that something was unusual this time. Could it be that King Jing's people encountered a temporary situation?

King Jing had not seen the emperor for several days. Thinking that if there were really remnants of Loulan's power in the palace, it would also be a threat to the emperor, King Jing decided to enter the palace to ask for an audience.

According to the rules, he had to submit a memorial to ask for instructions first. However, before Wang Xi left the house, someone came from the palace.

"Your Highness Prince Jing, Princess, the emperor wants to see you."

The person who came to deliver the imperial eunuch was a stranger. In the past, he was either Luo or Luo's man. Wang Xi was very familiar with him. It was rare to see a stranger. Wang Xi became more alert and asked him a few questions. The eunuch was not talkative. After being asked too many questions by Wang Xi, he just took out the imperial edict and put it aside.

Wang Xi saw the imperial edict with the imperial seal, and he didn't say anything more.

The emperor summoned him. Prince Jing didn't want Li Yu to be tired, so he wanted to go first and plead guilty for Li Yu.

Li Yu took his arm and smiled, "I rest all day long, how can I be tired? Don't worry."

Pregnancy does not mean that you can't walk, but I always feel that Prince Jing is exaggerating.

Moreover, the decree issued by the emperor only required him to go to the Qianqing Palace to meet the king. So far, Li Yu had met the emperor many times and was familiar with the process. There was really no need to go against the emperor's wishes on this point.

King Jing was now only one step away from the throne. If he was criticized for this or made the emperor unhappy, it would be a loss.

Li Yu's face was full of an expression of "take me with you, I'm super sweet". King Jing smiled and finally agreed, but he still insisted on bringing a lot of attendants to accompany him to take care of Li Yu.

Li Yu himself suddenly remembered that the "Gong Jiangshan" prompt had been refreshed. Could this entry into the palace be related to King Jing's ascension to the throne? Would it be a big event?

There were still hostile forces in the palace. To be cautious, Li Yu put a few things he often carried in his personal space, plus a sharp dagger.

They entered the palace quickly, but the eunuch did not take them directly to the Qianqing Palace to see the emperor. Instead, he took them to the Qianqiu Palace, which was closer, and asked them to wait inside.

The two had just entered and sat for a while when several teams of guards came outside the palace and surrounded the palace.

The eunuch apologized, "The emperor has been unwell recently. This is the emperor's order. Please forgive me. Several princes are currently in the Qianqing Palace to take care of the sick. The emperor asks you to go there as soon as possible."

King Jing and Li Yu looked at each other and both caught something wrong. The emperor was in good health before. How could he suddenly feel unwell after not seeing him for just a few days?

And why didn't the eunuch mention it when they left King Jing's mansion?

I remember that the emperor was not sick at this time in the original book...

No, the plot has changed a long time ago.

Li Yu's heart was pounding so hard that he stopped the eunuch and asked, "What's wrong with the emperor? Which imperial physician has examined him? What's the diagnosis?"

The eunuch hesitated and said, "The emperor caught a cold at night. The imperial physicians... the entire imperial hospital is here to diagnose the emperor. Please rest assured, princess."

The eunuch was not very clear. Some details that should have been clear to him were even wrong. If it was Steward Luo, he would definitely not make such a mistake. But the eunuch not only got it wrong, but also had to ask him before he was willing to reveal a word or two.

Li Yu always had a bad feeling. Could it be that the emperor was unwell for some reason?

There were many guards outside the Qianqiu Palace, so why were there fewer guards in the cold palace?

Li Yu exchanged glances with King Jing, and the two kept looking at each other. He felt that King Jing should also be suspicious.

The eunuch seemed to want to separate them, Li Yu tried: "I have entered the palace anyway, why don't I accompany His Highness."

The eunuch hesitated for a moment, looking embarrassed: "Although the emperor allowed the princess to enter the palace, he only summoned His Highness to take care of the sick. You should wait here. Perhaps the emperor will summon you soon."

The eunuch used the emperor's order as an excuse for every sentence, and Li Yu could not stop him.

Regardless of the hidden truth, King Jing must obey the order this time.

Because only by going there can he know the emperor's true situation.

King Jing pulled Li Yu close to him and straightened his crooked collar.

"Tianchi..."

Li Yu said softly, he wanted to remind King Jing to pay attention to safety.

King Jing nodded, took Li Yu's hand, and quickly wrote the word "Guard" on his palm.

This was to remind Li Yu that the guards around him would protect his safety. King Jing might have thought of what Li Yu was afraid of and worried about.

King Jing shook his hand again, as if saying goodbye.

"Your Highness, wait a moment, let me help you straighten your clothes." Li Yu thought for a moment and said.

The eunuch who had been staring at them might have felt annoyed and turned his head away quietly.

Li Yu neatly straightened King Jing's collar and cuffs.

Not only that, he also squatted down and helped him adjust a pair of Dengyun boots.

King Jing didn't expect him to do this, and was surprised and wanted to help him up.

Li Yu put his finger on his lips and said softly.
