Chapter 402: The King's Favor Returns



“Ohhhh~”

“Ohhhh~”

“Ohhhh~”

September 25th, 1:15 PM.

In the Laifeng Kingdom's royal palace, bursts of rooster crowing suddenly rang out from the Qiongyu Hall.

"This is really strange! In the middle of the night, there is a rooster crowing in the backyard of the imperial palace?" Inside the Mingzhu Palace, Situ Mingting, who had already gone to bed but was woken up by the crowing of a rooster, exclaimed in surprise.

"My lord, it seems to have come from the Qiongyu Palace of Emperor Ouyang." The eunuch Xiao Lizi who was guarding the bed said after yawning quietly.

"Could it be that the vixen Ouyang is using some new tricks to seduce the Emperor?" Situ Mingting murmured.

"Sir, it's getting late. You should go to bed early." Little Lizi reminded him.

"Little Leo, you're right. If you don't sleep well, you'll have dark circles under your eyes. I need to get some rest quickly."

Situ Mingting touched his face and felt that it seemed a little shriveled. Then he lay back on the spacious bed, covered himself with the quilt, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

"Mee-mee-mee~"

"Mee-mee-mee~"

"Mee-mee-mee~"

However, Situ Guijun had just laid down and rested for less than a cup of tea when bursts of sheep bleating came from the Qiongyu Palace.

"Little Leo, do you think there's something wrong with Ouyang Yuming? Could it be that he has raised chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, horses, cows and sheep in his own bedroom, planning to slaughter and stew one for the emperor every day?" Situ Mingting was speechless when he was woken up by the bleating of sheep when he was about to continue his beauty sleep.

"Your Excellency, who cares what kind of animal it is! If it makes such a noise in the middle of the night, Your Excellency Emperor Ouyang might get a reputation for not being strict with his subordinates and having poor moral character." Little Leo said with a hint of gloating.

"Little Leo, you're right!"

Situ Mingting's lips curled slightly, and his originally depressed mood immediately improved. He made up his mind to go to Qiongyu Palace tomorrow morning to test the waters and make some sarcastic remarks about Ouyang Yuming.

Situ Mingting, feeling completely satisfied, didn't even think the roosters or sheep were noisy; he even wished they could crow even louder. It would be best if the noise disturbed the imperial harem, causing the emperor to banish Ouyang Yuming to the cold palace. That would be the best...

Situ Mingting, in a happy mood, closed his eyes again and went to sleep. Just as he was feeling sleepy and was about to fall asleep, a noisy sound came from outside again.

But this time, it wasn't the "cock-a-doodle-doo" of a rooster, nor the "bleating" of a goat, but the "Awoo~Awoo~" roar of a tiger. Although it still had a hint of childishness, the domineering aura of the king of the forest was enough to scare people.

"Little Leo, did I hear it right? Was that the voice of old... Tiger?" Situ Mingting, who almost fell off the bed, sat up in shock.

"Well...it seems so!" Little Leo couldn't help but swallow his saliva and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. (This is really exciting! There are tigers in the backyard of the palace?)

"Someone, come and help me change my clothes and comb my hair. I have to go and take a good look at my brother Ouyang!" Situ Mingting's bright eyes flashed with gossip.

"But... Your Excellency, it's already three quarters past midnight!" Little Lizi reminded.

"Who cares? Do you think the ladies in the harem can still sleep peacefully after Ouyang Yuming made such a fuss?"

Two quarters of an hour later, Situ Mingting, who had changed into a noble indigo-blue palace dress and combed his hair into a dignified bun, and was surrounded by pearls and emeralds, walked out of the Mingzhu Palace in a very proud manner, surrounded by palace servants, and went to the Qiongyu Palace where Ouyang Yuming lived.

At six quarters past midnight, in the Qiongyu Palace.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Ouyang Yuming approached Nalan Yunzhi again without giving up, but was pushed away by her again.

Ouyang Yuming had just been having a secret affair with Han Shuying, and was almost caught by Nalan Yunzhi. Fortunately, the emperor was knocked unconscious by a wild cat that jumped out from the roof, which bought him some time.

The palace servants immediately carried the unconscious emperor to the bed of the royal noble, but before the imperial doctors arrived, the emperor had already woken up.

However, what made Ouyang Yuming very depressed was that the emperor, who was usually very gentle to him, not only did not show him a good face after waking up, but even imitated the crowing of a rooster, the braying of a goat, and now he even imitated the roar of a tiger.

Although we knew it was the emperor's voice, the lifelike sounds of roosters crowing, sheep bleating and tiger roaring were still scary enough.

"Your Majesty, Lord Situ is coming to the Qiongyu Palace." Deshan helped Ouyang Yuming, who was pushed to the ground by Nalan Yunzhi, and reported to him.

"What is this foul-mouthed Situ Mingting doing in my bedroom in the middle of the night?" Ouyang Yuming said unhappily.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, this Ouyang must have heard the crowing of chickens, the bleating of sheep and the roar of tigers just now. He is like a weasel wishing a happy new year to the chicken and has come here specially to laugh at you." Deshan said expressionlessly.

"You mean... I am a chicken and Situ Mingting is a weasel? That's ridiculous, slap your face!" Ouyang Yuming snorted coldly.

Deshan: ...

"yes!"

Having a master who is not well educated, Deshan feels miserable. She can only raise her hand and slap herself a few times.

"Oh, Brother Ouyang, what's wrong? I am ignorant and have made you angry again?" As Situ Mingting stepped into Ouyang Yuming's bedroom, he saw Deshan slapping himself in the face.

This is rare!

Deshan was Ouyang Yuming's dowry, having entered the Princess's residence with him. Something serious must have happened for the vixen Ouyang to punish Deshan, Situ Mingting muttered to himself.
