Chapter 87 Fortunately, the pet is a cat
Ever since Yun Fu recognized her master, she has been in a bad state.
Like a dough ball, she was ravaged by her master and senior sister in turn.
When they suggested that she stay with them and not be allowed to stay with Wei Rong, Yun Fu strongly objected.
He rolled and crawled into Wei Rong's arms, and grabbed the man's clothes tightly with his claws. His sharp claws protruded from the pads of his flesh, and the force was so great that he almost tore the man's clothes.
This is enough to show how afraid Yun Fu is of being with her master and senior sisters.
There was a smile in Yunxiazi's eyes, but the smile did not reach his eyes. Looking at Prince Wei who was holding his own disciple in front of him, his eyes were not eyes and his nose was not a nose.
She knew her little apprentice best. From childhood to adulthood, she would collect anything that caught her eye, whether it was alive or dead.
And Wei Rong's face is like a deadly poison to his little disciple, and it's the kind that's addictive.
Looking at her like this, it was obvious that she had been deeply poisoned. To put it more simply, she had jumped into the trap set for her by that person.
Having been in the love field for more than 20 years and having played with countless men, Yun Xiazi naturally saw through this boy's little trick at a glance.
It's just a pity for her young disciple who is so inexperienced in the world. Not long after she came out of the mountains, she encountered such a ruthless person.
She had originally thought that her good disciple would inherit her legacy so that she could experience the joy of being surrounded by handsome men in the future. But now it seems that she can no longer enjoy it.
This man is enough to make the little apprentice suffer.
After they recognized each other, Yun Fu asked Wei Rong to help her deliver a message to Maomao.
With her accompanying the cat back to Lingxi Mountain, there is no need to worry about the cat being scared.
The Zhu family was in a gloomy mood until the words sent by the Wei family made Yun Fu, who was originally reluctant to leave, suddenly change her mind.
Zhu Moshan looked at his lively granddaughter in front of him, his voice full of kindness, "My dear, are you really willing to go back with your master and the others? If you really don't want to, then stay here. Grandpa will support you for the rest of your life..."
The cat looked at the old man in front of it with a kind face and couldn't help but go over and rub his hand with its head.
“No… fear…”
Zhu Moshan almost cried because of his granddaughter's actions.
"Okay, okay, your master and senior sisters are here, so grandpa is relieved. Grandpa will wait for you to come home."
Maomao looked at the old man with red eyes. For some reason, his eyes also felt a little sore, and he nodded in confusion.
Now that everything is arranged, Wei Rong is resting at home on sick leave.
Ji Chenghe vaguely knew that his cousin's condition was not just a simple recuperation. Who would take so long to recover from a hand injury? However, he did not ask any more questions and still approved the petition for a long vacation.
When the Queen Mother learned of this, she strongly disapproved.
In Shoukang Palace, the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and their son were having a meal.
The Queen Mother looked at her son, whose eyes were dark and blue, and who obviously had not slept well for a long time, and could not help but speak.
"He'er, the court is extremely busy right now. Your cousin has such a high reputation in the court. How can you let him take such a long leave with so many things to deal with?"
"Mother—"
Ji Chenghe put down the jade chopsticks in his hand. The smile on his face was still gentle, but there was a bit more oppression in it.
Seeing this, the palace servants wisely retreated and closed the palace gate.
"The Wei family has helped us enough. For the throne of mine, the Duke of Wei and my uncle all died on the battlefield. The Wei family originally did not want to participate in the fight for the throne, but because of you and my aunt, you dragged the Wei family into it!
Now my cousin and aunt don’t look like mother and son, and you still think it’s not enough!!!”
When Ji Chenghe said the last sentence, he couldn't help but sweep the dishes on the table. The crackling sound was so harsh.
The Queen Mother Song's face lost all color in an instant and she was unable to utter a word.
Ji Chenghe stood up and looked at his pale mother. He gritted his teeth and said, "My aunt is now practicing in Foguang Temple. If you really can't stay idle, I will have someone send you over to keep her company."
When Empress Dowager Song heard the emperor's words, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, "No, I won't go. I'm not feeling well and need to rest."
Ji Chenghe raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, "I will be busy with government affairs in the future and will not be able to come to Shoukang Palace to pay my respects often. Mother, please take care of yourself."
After saying that, he pushed open the palace gate and strode away.
The young eunuchs serving behind him hurried to catch up.
When he returned to the Qinzheng Hall, he saw the person sitting on the armchair as soon as he entered the hall. The gloom on Ji Chenghe's face disappeared in an instant.
"cousin--"
Wei Rong put down the coral ornament in his hand and looked at the returning emperor. "I came to tell you a few words before leaving. What are you doing—"
The eunuch beside him quickly said, "Prince, our Majesty just came from Shoukang Palace..."
Before the father-in-law could finish his words, he was scolded by Ji Chenghe.
"Stop talking, step back—"
The chief eunuch stopped talking immediately and left the palace with a smile on his face.
When Wei Rong heard that they went to Shoukang Palace, he immediately understood what was going on.
Looking at the young man in front of him wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, he is now in his twenties.
Wei Rong remembered that when he was first brought back from the State of Chen, he was as thin as a monkey. Now he has become the king of a country, and his eyes and eyebrows have begun to show the appearance of an emperor.
"My father and uncle's deaths were the work of the late emperor and the late crown prince. You don't need to take all the blame on yourself. If your mother had been involved, I wouldn't have supported you to this position. I would have skinned you alive the moment it happened."
After Wei Rong finished speaking, he looked up at the emperor and said calmly, "But the Queen Mother Song used her own life and the lives of the entire Zhenguogong family as bargaining chips to drag the Wei family into the quagmire of the struggle for the throne. She has kept this in mind. I have done what I should do now. I will not be manipulated by anyone else on the road ahead."
When Ji Chenghe heard this, a trace of self-blame and sorrow flashed across his eyes.
Wei Rong didn't bother to watch Ji Chenghe's deathly expression in front of him, so he just finished explaining what he needed to say, and then got straight to the point, "Give me the key to your private vault."
When Ji Chenghe heard his cousin asking for the key to his private vault, he quickly took it out and said, "Cousin, just take whatever you want without telling me. If there's something you like that's not in my private vault, I'll have someone look for it in the national treasury."
Wei Rong snorted and laughed, "What if I emptied your entire private vault, wouldn't you say a word?"
Ji Chenghe quickly said, "Cousin, are you bringing many people? There might be a lot of stuff. If you bring fewer people, you might not be able to move it all at once. I'll ask someone to help you."
Wei Rong shook the key to the private vault in his hand and said, "Alright, I'll just pick out a few small things to appease my little ancestor. I won't empty your private vault."
When Ji Chenghe heard that they were going to pick out a gift for the kitten, he quickly called the chief eunuch and said, "Send the pair of night-shining pearls that were recently presented as tribute to the foreign tribes, as well as the box of oriental pearls, to the Duke of Wei's mansion. Also, send the piece of fine blood jade that I obtained."
The eunuch felt heartbroken when he heard that all these things were to be moved to the Duke of Wei's Mansion and given to the cat raised by the Prince of Wei.
These are all good things to be offered as tribute, and giving them all to a cat is... such a waste.
Of course, he could only whisper these words in his heart, and the eunuch didn't dare to say them out loud.
That cat is the most beloved and precious thing to Prince Wei. No one else in the whole Jing'an can have such an honor.
If this cat were a woman, it would surely arouse the envy and jealousy of many noble ladies.
Fortunately, the prince's favorite is a cat.
