In the end, Yan Jiyuan had no desire to sleep, but the little fat boy did not move.
Fish don’t have eyelids and cannot close their eyes. The little fat boy sleeps with his eyes open because he is really too sleepy.
After being sad for many days and being carried by a flying rabbit for so long, he stepped into the vermilion door.
If he hadn't been so eager to see his father, he would have slept a little longer during this time of going against the tide.
But his instinct forced him to wake up, just to see the person he missed most.
Now that he saw it, he couldn't describe how happy he was, but also how heartbroken he was. Fat Fish was so sad and happy that he blew bubbles for at least two hours.
Even staying in the water the whole time would make me exhausted.
The emperor loved him deeply in the past. The little fat boy would often close his eyes and faint while eating or talking.
The people in the palace were scared by him several times, and later the emperor could catch the fallen fat radish with his quick eyes and hands while eating.
Only His Majesty knows how many bitter tears are involved.
Your Majesty is only a fifteen-year-old boy today. He usually stays at home and rarely goes out. He has never seen such a strange creature.
Seeing that he didn't move again, Yan Jiyuan felt a little uneasy.
Poke it once, poke it again.
The scales are not hard but elastic.
For some reason, the onomatopeia "duang" suddenly popped up in Yan Jiyuan's mind.
?
I'm afraid I'm crazy.
What is this thing.
When I met Fat Fish, everything seemed different.
This feeling of surprise and doubt even diluted his worries. Yan Jiyuan calmed down and looked at the little fat boy with a frown for a long time.
Only then did I realize that he had fallen asleep.
The eyelashes of the innocent Crown Prince trembled. Obviously, a fish that fell asleep as soon as it was told to did so had given him a great shock.
He was even more surprised than the fact that the goldfish could change color, have glowing eyes, and had a soft touch.
"If he is really stupid, then so be it." Yan Jiyuan thought Fatty Yu'er was cute and couldn't help but touch him a few more times.
I don't know how it grew, but there's nothing sticky on it.
Not like a fish, but like auspiciousness itself.
A blessing from God that belongs only to me.
The fat fish seemed to be dreaming, and its tail began to flick again. The crown prince stroked him stiffly and coaxed him stiffly: "Don't be afraid."
If others saw this, they would think the prince was crazy.
Although stiff, it inexplicably reveals tolerance, compassion, and love.
Maybe it was a familiar voice.
The amazing thing is that Fatty Fish really stopped moving. He just moved closer to Yan Jiyuan's position and was already sticking to the wall, but he was still not satisfied.
I can't wait to jump ashore and stick close to my father.
The Crown Prince was so trusted and clingy to Fatty Yuer that the fifteen-year-old boy could not remain calm in the future.
The tips of his ears turned slightly red, and his heart felt as if he had eaten honey.
A thin mist rose in the inky night, birdsong could be heard from the green branches, and crickets whispered in the low bushes.
Yan Jiyuan didn't hear any of this. He was just watching a fish sleeping.
That's all.
The moonlight pouring from the white jade cup spread over the willow branches. Such a beautiful night was broken by a voice full of malice and jealousy.
"Hey, I'm your humble servant, greeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." With a lazy tone of provocation, two young men of similar stature appeared in front of Yan Jiyuan.
"The prince was in good health, but now he's sitting by the Taiye Lake like a drowned rat. Ha, if this gets out, it will be such a disgrace to the royal family." They laughed and sneered.
His eyes flashed with malice.
The fourth and fifth princes begged their father for a long time, and their mother also whispered in their ear, before the emperor showed mercy and let them go out to have fun.
The two of them walked back to the palace arm in arm, talking and laughing loudly about the interesting things that happened outside the palace.
When passing by Taiye Lake, they saw a dark shadow sitting by the covered bridge. They thought they saw a ghost and were scared to death.
Until the figure moved, and low voices were heard in the silent night sky. The flat tone made them know who it was at once.
The "Crown Prince" raised in the deep palace.
Tsk tsk, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who usually never leaves the house, is still sitting by the lake at three o'clock in the morning.
When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong. The two of them smelled something and went up.
Yan Jiyuan ignored the two people, just like two quacking ducks quacking in his ears.
Let’s not talk about whether the two dare to fight or not. Even if they do, they are ten times more numerous than him and are no match for him.
He has always behaved like this, and it is precisely this insolence and indifference towards others that makes the other princes uncomfortable.
How dare a man who is not favored and has only the title of Crown Prince ignore them like this?
The fourth prince and the fifth prince had already drunk some wine, which made them bolder, and they had forgotten what happened a month ago.
The crown prince, who was constantly abused by them, beat them until they cried for their parents, but his hair was not even messed up.
"If you don't accept my toast, I'll drink the punishment. I want to see what harm you are doing here!" The fourth prince said as he walked forward, and the fifth prince stood by to support him.
Yan Jiyuan didn't move at all and continued to sit.
Because he was holding a swimming fish in his palm. Although most of its body was exposed, the little fat boy would wake up as soon as he moved.
Yan Jiyuan, who didn't want to wake up Fatty Yu'er, had a darkened look in his eyes and said in a cold voice, "If you take another step forward, I'll skin you alive."
