Li Yu was right beside King Jing. When he learned that the imperial concubine was coming, he also wanted to take a look at her. He

had already seen the emperor, and it was roughly the same as what was written in the book. Li Yu also wanted to know what a woman who dared to offend a tyrant looked like. But his position at the moment was a little off, and his line of sight was blocked. Li Yu swam back and forth and kept adjusting the angle, but after several attempts he still couldn't get it right. Just when he thought he could only listen to the sound, King Jing, who had been staring at him for a while, suddenly moved the bowl of fish to a direction that happened to be facing the palace door. Li Yu: !!! How could it be such a coincidence? Could it be that King Jing realized that he wanted to see the imperial concubine? But even King Jing, who occasionally cared about the fish, would not be so meticulous. Maybe he just moved the bowl on a whim. Li Yu quickly convinced himself not to bother about these things. Since he could see it, he could see it openly. Soon, a graceful woman in palace dress, led a tall young man, and walked into the curtain surrounded by eunuchs and palace servants. Concubine Qiu had pearls and jade on her head, and a light purple palace dress with golden crabapples in full bloom on the hem of her skirt. Her skin was whiter than snow and she was beautiful. Concubine Qiu was very well maintained. If it weren't for the tall and strong Second Prince following closely behind her, and the Second Prince's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Qiu's, it would be hard to imagine that Qiu was already in her thirties. Li Yu couldn't help but sigh. With such a beautiful face, it was no wonder that she was the most favored concubine in the emperor's harem in recent years. According to the book, Qiu was at the most proud moment of her life at that time. The emperor had privately revealed to her that he planned to make her second son Mu Tianzhao the crown prince. The emperor, like many ancient emperors, hoped that the legitimate son would inherit the throne. In the early years, he had made the eldest son of Empress Xiaohui the crown prince. Unfortunately, the eldest son died at the age of seven. The emperor and empress were sad for several years. Empress Xiaohui gave birth to the fourth prince, and the emperor wanted to make him the crown prince again. Unfortunately, the fourth prince was unlucky. He caught a cold when he was two years old and died. Empress Xiaohui had experienced the pain of losing two children and her health was very poor. She didn't care about the fourth prince. The fifth prince was born, who is now the King Jing. However, God played a vicious joke on the emperor and Empress Xiaohui. This youngest legitimate son who was highly anticipated was born mute. It was a heavy blow to the emperor and Empress Xiaohui... After Empress Xiaohui passed away, the emperor felt that he might not have a legitimate son in his life, and never mentioned the matter of establishing a crown prince. After more than 20 years, suddenly some news leaked out, and Qiu was ecstatic. Although the emperor's favor to her in recent years is obvious to all, he has never intended to make her the queen. But what does it matter? As long as her son, the second prince, can be the crown prince and ascend the throne in the future, it doesn't matter whether she is the queen or not! Qiu felt that she was about to get through it, and she was walking with the wind! Qiu saluted the second prince, and the emperor ordered the imperial concubine to come forward. Since he intended to establish the second prince as the heir, he had to give her some respect. Qiu smiled coquettishly and sat down next to the emperor. She glanced at King Jing who was sitting below her with the attitude of a victor, and thought with disdain in her heart, even if the second prince was the son of the previous emperor and had a higher birth than her, so what? In the end, he still had to bow to the crown prince and the future emperor. Qiu and the second prince smiled in tacit understanding, but King Jing did not react. King Jing looked straight ahead, his fingers still immersed in the bowl, occasionally pinching the smooth back of the small carp. Li Yu was a little angry because he was pinching her: Oh, so hard, the fish can't bear it! Li Yu dodged and stared at King Jing warily. King Jing's fingers missed, and his dark eyes stared at the small carp without blinking. Li Yu: "..." Li Yu felt the air around him suddenly condense. ...Will the tyrant be angry if he doesn't let you pinch him? Forget it, a good fish doesn't fight with people, let alone his master. He knew that King Jing must be unhappy when he saw Qiu sitting next to the emperor. Which child would like another woman to replace his mother? Although Qiu was smiling, she was just showing off and provoking King Jing. Considering that King Jing was in a bad mood... Li Yu was justified and frightened, and snuggled up to him again, rubbing King Jing's fingers in a flattering manner. I'll pinch you, but don't be so hard, okay? King Jing pursed his lips at the fish's opportunism and continued to pinch the fish's spine with his fingers. Li Yu endured silently, and felt that King Jing was too strong and could not bear it any longer, so he dodged to the side and shook his tail lightly, but after a moment he swam back again, letting King Jing vent his anger. King Jing also found that the little carp did not seem to hate his touch, but why did it dodge and come back? ... Was it because his strength was too great for the fish? King Jing's finger movements became gentler. Li Yu immediately felt comfortable, which was good enough. It didn't seem to be particularly uncomfortable to have his back pinched, it was a little itchy... Li Yu rolled King Jing's fingers with the tip of his tail to show his love. King Jing: "..." King Jing found that this little carp was not particularly difficult to understand. The man and the fish were immersed in their own world, and they didn't care about how others reacted. The emperor had seen Prince Jing like this before, and he watched with interest the interaction between Prince Jing and the little carp. He never knew that this cold-hearted and cold-faced son could also tease fish. Qiu's smile froze on her face. Prince Jing treated her as if she didn't exist, which was a silent humiliation for her. "What's wrong with your Highness Prince Jing?" Qiu tried to make the emperor aware of Prince Jing's rudeness. But the emperor smiled and said, "My concubine, Prince Jing recently raised a fish. What do you think of it?" Qiu: "..." Of course Qiu didn't think much of it. She had her own purpose for this trip, so how could she let a dull fish get away from it? The emperor was like this, most likely because he had forgotten her previous advice and softened his heart towards Prince Jing. Concubine Qiu had already prepared a response. She gave a wink to her trusted palace maid, who understood and left. After a while, she reentered the palace with a snow-white object in her arms and walked over quickly. Qiu was delighted, and she held the snow-white object in her arms and said softly, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten my snow after seeing King Jing's fish?" The emperor also remembered the purpose of summoning King Jing, touched his nose and smiled.

The snow-white cat in Qiu's arms, in coordination with the movements of its master, meowed and slowly raised its head.

Li Yu, who was playing with King Jing, suddenly heard the cat's meow and was so frightened that his scales were about to explode.

How come there is a cat in the Qianqing Palace?

Li Yu carefully swam to the surface of the water to find out what was going on, and saw that the imperial concubine was holding a big white cat in her arms, and her jewel-like blue eyes turned to him at once.

With this size and this voice, isn't this the enemy cat? !

Li Yu shuddered and quickly dived into the water, but it was too late. The big white cat found him, meowed excitedly, broke free from the imperial concubine's arms, and swooped over to him as fast as an arrow.

Li Yu: Oh, help me, the cat is going to eat the fish! !

He originally thought that if he met the enemy cat again, he would definitely find a way to escape, or at least slap the cat with his tail. But when he really met the cat again, he realized that the instinct of the fish and the pain of being bitten by the cat made him shudder.

Li Yu was in the bowl, with no escape. In desperation, he jumped under King Jing's palm and curled up into a ball, hoping that the big white cat would not see him.

But this was just deceiving himself.

The big white cat jumped up in a blink of an eye. The cat was not afraid of water and raised its mouth to grab the fish. Seeing that the fish was about to fall into the cat's mouth again, King Jing's hand scooped up the curled-up small carp to protect it, and the white cat only had time to bite a mouthful of wind.

"Meow?"

The white cat pounced in vain, raised its head in confusion, and met a face it would never forget.

"Meow!!!"

The white cat felt hopeless for a moment.

King Jing's face was as cold as frost. He flicked his finger lightly, and the white cat was swung away and hit the leg of the palace maid who brought it into the palace. The

palace maid screamed in pain, and the white cat was dizzy for a while after being hit. He stood up and shook his head. He didn't dare to think about fishing anymore, and turned around and ran back to Concubine Qiu's arms.

Li Yu hid under King Jing's hands, secretly peeking out from between King Jing's fingers, laughing so hard that he fell backwards. He was indeed a tyrant monarch. The big white cat was crazy again!

Seeing that King Jing actually attacked the emperor, Concubine Qiu was secretly delighted. She bent down to pick up the crying white cat and pretended to check it. Qiu

pretended to be distressed and scolded: "Piaoxue, you evil beast, why don't you learn your lesson after being punished once? Why do you want to provoke King Jing for no reason? You don't take me seriously, do you?"

Li Yu was originally very happy, but he was so angry that he wanted to jump up and down after hearing this. Concubine Qiu was scolding the cat on the surface, but in fact she was just trying to make the emperor pay attention to her. King Jing had taught her favorite a lesson more than once and didn't take her seriously.

When the Imperial Concubine spoke, the Second Prince Mu Tianzhao of course supported his mother and said, "My Fifth Brother was just young and playful, he had no ill intentions, please don't blame me, Father and Mother."

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu rolled his eyes to the sky, blew a big bubble, and pointed his tail at the Second Prince with disdain.

The Second Prince's voice sounded gentle, but he was more cruel than the Imperial Concubine. If the Imperial Concubine was a bitch, the Second Prince even admitted the crime for King Jing and said that King Jing had no ill intentions. Was he afraid that the Emperor would not think that he had bad intentions?

These vicious cannon fodders!

Although he knew that King Jing would ascend the throne in the future, and that Mu Tianzhao and Concubine Qiu would not have a good ending, but now the mother and son were singing the same tune, bullying King Jing, who was speechless, and King Jing did not bring Eunuch Wang Xi with him, Li Yu was a little anxious. King Jing had saved him several times, and he couldn't just watch King Jing being bullied, right?

But he was just a fish after all, how could he do anything to Concubine Gui and her son who were in the limelight?

Li Yu was so angry that he puffed his mouth and anxiously made circles in the bowl.

The eye drops of the concubine and her son took effect. The emperor remembered the concubine's previous complaints and said with a gloomy face: "Prince Jing, I heard that you once smashed her cat on the concubine's birthday. Is that true?"

The concubine cried and told the emperor on her birthday that Prince Jing smashed her pet Piaoxue. Now the emperor saw Prince Jing attack Piaoxue with his own eyes, and he still believed what Qiu said.

It's not that he likes Piaoxue this cat so much, but it's just a toy. What if Prince Jing beats and kills it? The emperor didn't care selfishly, but it involved the concubine. After all, the concubine was Prince Jing's concubine mother, and there was the second prince standing behind her, who was his preferred candidate for the crown prince. The emperor didn't want Prince Jing to be at odds with the future crown prince because of this. He summoned Prince Jing to ask clearly, give an explanation to the concubine, and comfort the concubine.

King Jing glanced at the Imperial Concubine coldly, without any intention to explain, and continued to fiddle with his little carp with his eyes downcast.

For some reason, the cheeks of this little fish were bulging, and they were especially obvious when Qiu was talking, as if it was angry. King Jing found it a little funny. Could it be that even the fish could understand the tricks of the Imperial Concubine and her son?

The author has something to say:

The Imperial Concubine’s head is full of "pearls" and jadeite, and there are pearls!

Small drama (angry)

King Jing: You look like a puffer fish when you are angry.

Li Yu: I want to bite them for you! Wuwuwu, Your Highness, is you angry too? QAQ

King Jing: No, I just feel bored.
