Chapter 019 The game between master and pet is over
Rong Yin couldn't believe it: Are you using my hands as chopsticks?
Zong Zhengxiao swallowed the cake and drank a sip of tea before explaining, "You lost just now, and my punishment for you is to feed me cakes."
Rong Yin: ...
He snorted angrily: You evil emperor, why are you talking about something else?
Although he didn't want to recall his miserable failure, Rong Yin was still very trustworthy. After Zong Zheng Xiao held his hand and fed him twice, he took the plate on his own initiative and stuffed the cakes into Zong Zheng Xiao's mouth piece by piece.
By the time the plate was almost empty, Rong Yin's original semi-voluntary attitude had turned into a moment of enjoyment.
Because he experienced the joy of feeding.
Watching the object being fed chewing the food I feed it seriously, it will open its mouth obediently when I reach out my hand to it, with a happy expression and its eyes always falling on me.
A feeling of satisfaction that was difficult to describe in detail rose from Rong Yin's heart, and he wondered why Zong Zheng Xiao liked to feed him so much, and it turned out to be because of this.
Rong Yin: If the bad emperor also has dark circles under his eyes, then wouldn’t I be a “panda keeper”?
He automatically imagined Zong Zheng Xiao in front of him as a panda and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
The contrast between the ferocious Zong Zheng Xiao and the cute panda is too great, and forcing the two to fit in will only produce a strange sense of humor.
Zong Zheng Xiao heard his inner thoughts and saw his expression of trying not to laugh: ...Who are you punishing?
In the end, he made a mistake.
After feeding him a whole plate of cakes, Rong Yin still felt it was not enough, so she squeezed into Zong Zheng Xiao's arms and forced him to drink the tea.
Zong Zhengxiao couldn't refuse, so he was forced to drink a bellyful of water, which resulted in him being unable to eat dinner.
Rong Yin still wanted to feed Zong Zheng Xiao, but Zong Zheng Xiao didn't want to be bullied, so he deliberately refused with a cold face. He was afraid that he would be unhappy and bully him again, so Rong Yin had to give up.
Seeing Zong Zheng Xiao in trouble, Si Xi not only did not feel distressed, but he secretly smiled in his heart.
Their wise and powerful Emperor has finally met his nemesis.
If Zong Zheng Xiao knew what he was thinking, he would definitely beat him with a stick.

It was a rainy summer day. There were thunder and lightning the night before and the sun came out early the next morning.
It wasn't too hot today, so Rong Yin waited for Zong Zhengxiao to come back from court and have lunch with her. She thought the afternoon would be like usual, with Zong Zhengxiao handling government affairs while she took a nap.
But who knew that Zong Zhengxiao did not review the memorials, but instead picked him up, his eyes shining brightly, and said with a smile: "I'll take you to a place."
Rong Yin didn't understand and couldn't ask directly, so she could only shrink into Zong Zheng Xiao's arms and let him carry her out the door.
Anyway, Zong Zheng Xiao would never harm him.
Rong Yin had never left the palace since he was transferred to the bathhouse on the first day he traveled through the book. When he suddenly saw the bright sunlight outside, he subconsciously narrowed his eyes.
Zong Zhengxiao knew that he couldn't stay away from water for too long, so the place Zong Zhengxiao mentioned wouldn't be too far away.
The air outside was fresh. Rong Yin gradually got used to the feeling of being held. She also became much bolder. She climbed onto Zong Zheng Xiao's shoulders and looked around.
Unlike the last time when they moved in the middle of the night, today they went out during the day, so Rong Yin could see more.
The most visible things are still the palace walls and pavilions. In summer, the grass and trees are lush, and the scorching sun cannot stop the grass and trees from growing and the flowers from blooming.
From time to time, some palace maids could be met on the road. All of them shrank to the side before Zong Zhengxiao arrived, bowed their heads and knelt to salute. Not to mention looking directly at the emperor, they didn't even dare to show their faces.
Rong Yin couldn't help but think: If my identity in this world was not a mermaid, but one of the palace maids, I wonder how many days I could survive under such strict palace rules?
In ancient times, people were not equal. Once they became slaves, it was difficult for them to control their own destiny. They faced more persecution from the upper class.
Rong Yin felt that he was not a smart person and could not resist the oppression of feudal society. If he was reincarnated as a slave, he would probably have to live a hard life for the rest of the year.
Rong Yin's inner voice reached Zong Zheng Xiao's ears, and he paused slightly in his forward steps.
This world?
What the mermaid means is that he is from another world?
Zong Zhengxiao couldn't help but wonder what the world was like for the little mermaid before? Not only did he know how to make ice and paper, he also read a book that could predict the end of all of them.
However, a place that can nurture such a free and lively character like the mermaid cannot be worse than this world.
How did the mermaid get here? Will he ever go back?
Thinking of this, Zong Zhengxiao unconsciously tightened his arms around Rong Yin until Rong Yin felt uncomfortable and gently pushed him away.
Zong Zhengxiao came back to his senses and looked down to see Rong Yin looking at him curiously, as if asking him what was wrong.
"Sorry, I hurt you." This was all Zong Zhengxiao could say.
Hearing this, Rong Yin silently thought to herself: It doesn't hurt, but the bad emperor suddenly did this. Could it be that he is too weak to hold me? How far do we have to go? What if he loses his grip and drops me to the ground?
Zong Zhengxiao: “…”
The next second, Rong Yin, who was still considering whether to get down and walk slowly, was suddenly thrown upwards. He was completely unprepared and almost thought that he was really thrown down by Zong Zheng Xiao. He was so scared that his heart almost stopped.
"Ah!" Rong Yin looked at Zong Zheng Xiao in surprise.
But Zong Zheng Xiao did not bow his head to comfort him as he did before. Instead, he seemed to be deliberately ignoring him and stared straight ahead with a cold face.
Before Rong Yin could figure out the situation, he took two steps and Zong Zheng Xiao bumped him again.
He was frightened and trembled, and instinctively hugged Zong Zhengxiao's neck.
Looking up again, he saw Zong Zheng Xiao's lips raised.
He knew that Zong Zheng Xiao did it on purpose.
She was apologizing to him in a gentle voice one second, and started to scare him the next second. Rong Yin almost suspected that Zong Zheng Xiao was mentally ill.
Rong Yin: Is Zong Zheng Xiao going crazy?
Just as he finished thinking this, he was thrown away again.
Rong Yin: ...
Rong Yin: I’m angry ahhhh!
He roared in his heart, and reality was no longer weak, biting Zong Zhengxiao's shoulder very fiercely.
Rong Yin used some strength this time, and even through the clothes, Zong Zheng Xiao could feel the pain.
But not only was he not angry, a happy smile appeared on his face.
Si Xi and Lu E walked behind them and watched everything that happened.
When Lu'e found out that Zong Zheng Xiao was bullying Rong Yin, she felt very distressed but was powerless to stop it. After seeing Rong Yin biting Zong Zheng Xiao, she was frightened and almost cried out, fearing that Rong Yin would anger Zong Zheng Xiao and lose his life.
After all, in her opinion, the image of Rong Yin opening his sharp fangs and biting people was still quite scary.
She didn't feel relieved until Zong Zhengxiao showed that he didn't care at all.
Compared to the newcomer Lu'e, Si Xi, who already knew the relationship between Zong Zheng Xiao and Rong Yin thoroughly, seemed as stable as a rock.
Haha, this is just a little game between the master and the pet. Whoever takes it seriously will lose.
