I heard you have nine tails

Tan Chang lay on his big tail, lay down with his head buried, closed his eyes, and refused to communicate with any creature.

However, the good sense of smell and hearing still brought back all the nearby news: After returning to the hall, the master changed his clothes and sat down, correcting the memorial at the desk, writing and drawing never stopped.Didn't even look at him.

Although surrounded by the gentle dragon energy, and the inner alchemy is rapidly condensing and absorbing, Tan Chang still has infinite resentment in his heart: This fox is of noble blood and looks so cute, did you just catch it and eat it?

Even if it's for food, can you ignore it like this?

Don't you take a second look at your ingredients?

Don't you look at your little cutie?

Feeling dispirited, Tan Chang turned over and curled up, completely lying dead.

After reading several memorials patiently, Li Lin's heart became more and more angry.In the past few years, the father stayed behind closed doors, and the cabinet was used to handing the booklets directly to him.But after all, he just observes politics and cannot be arbitrarily judged. For this reason, the people below seem to disregard him and fight for blood.

For example, the Yao family contracted the bridges and dams in the Huainan area, but something happened in autumn, and some people impeached them for being greedy for ink.

The Yao family is both an official and a merchant.What's worse is that the Yao family is the mother family of Li Lin's third younger brother, Li Ji, and the natal family of Concubine Hui.

Li Lin rubbed his brows, tapped lightly on the table, the room was the same as before, there was no sound at all, it was extraordinarily quiet.Suddenly, he realizes that he's left some little guy out for too long.He stood up and moved around, and glanced sideways by the way.I was stunned when I saw this:

The little red fox's eyes were closed, his limbs were exposed while lying on his side, his big tail was placed straight behind him instead of under his body before.

Li Lin walked over to explore, but couldn't feel breathing anymore.

After a while, what happened?Are you too timid to be scared to death?

Li Lin couldn't figure it out.He didn't really intend to skin and eat the meat, and he didn't have any feelings for the fox, but the pet that the emperor gave him died on the same day, which was too ugly.

In fact, he wasn't that annoying, at least when he was reviewing the memorial, he didn't bother him aloud, and he even died silently like this.Thinking of this, Li Lin felt a little guilty again.

He stretched out his hand to feel it, there was still temperature, and he didn't know if it could be saved.

Li Lin straightened up and went to open the door of the palace, shouting: "Come on, call the imperial physician!"

"Are you unwell?" Jinse walked quickly and asked worriedly.

"No, it's the fox..." Li Lin paused, remembering that he hadn't given the fox a name, and that it would be difficult for him to ask the imperial physician to treat the fox.But now I can only die a horse... a dead fox is a living fox doctor.He turned sideways to let Jinse in, and walked a few steps into the hall, ready to let her see if the fox was still alive.

However, the cage that came into view was empty again.

Li Lin's gaze was fixed, and he quickly turned his head to the palace gate, just as he saw a ball of fire rushing out like a cannonball.

"Quickly call someone to chase after him!" Before he finished speaking, he rushed out first, Jinse gritted his teeth, and followed closely behind.

His Highness the Crown Prince gave an order, and the palace people of Xianyang Palace started to act in unison.

Tan Chang ran fast.Nonsense, can you not hurry up, if he waits until his former master gets the bow and arrow, he will be captured again!Playing dead is a unique skill of the fox family, and it is the only way to confuse the enemy and take the opportunity to escape at a critical moment.Although he is a nine-tailed fox, it's a bit cheap to use such a trick against mortals, but he really doesn't want to become a fur or food!Not even the Queen's fur!

The nine-tailed fox runs very fast.In the past, Tan Chang was always lazy and slow-moving, but his life was at stake, so he dared not slack off!

Running out of Xianyang Palace, dodging guards one by one, Tan Chang landed on all fours, hid behind a rockery and looked around.It seems to be a garden, did it go the wrong way?

No matter, just avoid that guy!

Tan Changxiang stumbled upon an extraordinarily tall palace wall, and decided that it might be the outer wall of the palace. He threw himself on it desperately, preparing...ready...ready...

"Wang! Wang Wang!"

Can anyone tell him why there are dogs here? !

"Huang Er! Come back!" A childish voice called from behind.

Tan Chang glared at the dog that looked a whole circle bigger than him, this stupid thing was wondering what it was and if it could be eaten!As he backed away slowly, he yelled bravado: "Go away! Do you know who is in front of you! This fox has spells, be careful, I will strike you to death with a lightning strike!"

The big dog couldn't understand his squeaks, but when he met this completely unfamiliar little thing, he stepped forward curiously and greeted him: "Wow!"

Tan Chang almost fainted from fright.

When Li Lin arrived, what he saw was this situation: the little boy called his pet helplessly and stubbornly again and again, while the big yellow dog still sniffed the little fox curiously and barked from time to time.And the fox... squatted there, with his eyes closed, his big tail wrapped around his body, and his whole body and tail were shaking.

Are you afraid of dogs?

Li Lin stood on the sidelines and motioned for Jinxiu to pull Huang Er away and bring the little fox back. He greeted the little boy in the golden robe, "Fourth brother, are you playing in the garden?"

"I've met the prince and brother." The 11-year-old Li Xiao is different from his brothers, he has completely inherited his mother's willow eyebrows and peach blossom eyes, and he smiles a little shyly. "Brother Huang, my younger brother has just finished his homework and is coming out with his yellow ears to get some air."

"En." Li Lin nodded.Li Xiao's performance in Shangshufang is the best among brothers, even the cabinet ministers often praise his knowledge, and the clan has a good reputation as a young prodigy, and he never worries about his mother.But given the age difference between the two, Li Lin really didn't know what to talk about.Seeing Jin Se standing behind him with the fox in his arms, he said: "Tomorrow I will go to greet the queen mother, and you will return to the palace earlier, so don't let the queen worry."

Li Xiao obediently responded one by one, and then looked eagerly into Jinse's arms. "This... is the nine-tailed fox that the father gave to the emperor?"

Li Lin didn't want to say much, and nodded slightly.Li Xiao hesitated to speak, lowered his head and raised his head, and finally asked cautiously: "When the emperor goes to the mother's harem, can...can you take him with you?"

No matter how child prodigy, it is inevitable that he is still a child at heart.Li Lin felt relieved, and smiled and accepted the younger brother's request.

When he returned to Xianyang Palace, Tan Chang was buried in Jinse's arms and refused to lift his head.

He was desperately reflecting on himself.It's a shame, it's really a shame!It's just an ordinary dog, you may not be able to beat him even if you beat him, if you just use spells to confuse him, you'll be fine!How could he freeze there motionless, not only was he caught back, but also made a fool of himself in vain!

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this man and woman were laughing at him, so he buried his head lower.

This time it’s great, I’ve revealed my shortcomings, I won’t be able to run in the future, I can only turn into a coil of fox fur!

While complaining to himself, he lowered his head, and a few tears flowed out of his glass-like eyes.

Jinse carried Tan Chang back to the main hall, but he still refused to look up.Jinse put him down carefully, saw the wet marks on the sleeves, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, he may be ashamed." She liked this cute little fox from the bottom of her heart, and hoped to speak well for him in front of His Highness. sentence.

"You go out first, the fox will be taken care of by Deshan for a few days." Li Lin had already sat down and didn't lift his head when he spoke.

Jin Se immediately knelt down, "I am guilty of this slave, please punish me, Your Highness!"

"You talk too much. Today, Deshan should accompany Gu out, right?" Li Lin's few simple words made Jinse's face turn pale. "Since you're tired, go back and rest for a few days."

Li Lin burst into a fit of zeal simply and neatly.Finally he stopped writing, closed his eyes and counted to ten, and then opened his eyes to read the memorial again.Jinse has been with him for many years, and was bestowed by his mother, so he is very respectable in Xianyang Palace.But no matter how decent he is, he will not allow a slave to do it for him.He is a prince, and he has only a court lady by his side in the imperial garden. What is it like to spread the word?

After a while, Deshan came to plead guilty.Deshan is an honest person, but his shortcoming is that he is too honest.Li Lin nodded perfunctorily and let him go down.

This little guy is the one who needs cleaning up the most.

After a while, Li Lin put down his book, walked slowly to the front of the cage, and looked down at the little fox who was still buried in his head. "Play dead?"

He also made a special trip to ask someone to ask, saying that foxes do have the habit of playing dead in times of crisis.Critical moment... Well in the palace, where did the critical moment come from?

Li Lin, who found out that he had been cheated, was very upset, and his worry just now turned into a mockery.

The little fox was still curled up, with its tail in front of it, swaying.

Facing the temptation, Li Lin squatted down, stretched out a hand, and pinched his tail.

Tan Chang was stunned.

That's his tail!

The tail is the most important part of a nine-tailed fox!It's very private!How can this person just touch it!

Are you a hooligan! ?

"Squeak squeak!"

Li Lin was satisfied when he found that the fox finally looked up at him, opened his mouth with wide eyes showing four canine teeth, and made a sound.It seems that this little guy knew he was wrong. "It's good to know that you're wrong. I'm in a good mood today. I'll forgive you first." The touch is also good, as soft and soft as imagined, smooth and delicate. Little by little.

"Squeak creak?" Tan Chang shook his paw, hit it with one paw, and yelled at him desperately.Are you a fool?Who knew it was wrong!Let go of your stinky hands!

In Li Lin's eyes, Tan Chang's wave with all his strength was just an act of begging for mercy.Li Lin smiled as he pinched that tiny paw. "It's good if you know you're wrong, and you don't have to beg for mercy. Gu has always been magnanimous." The more the other party shouted, the happier Li Lin felt.Although he knew that the fox could not understand what he said, he continued to say: "You don't have to worry, what Gu said before..."

"Your Highness."

"It's all to scare you." Before finishing the five words, Deshan's voice came from outside the door.Li Lin finally let go of his hand, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

"The third prince asks to see you." Deshan replied.

Some of the smile also disappeared.Li Lin straightened up and smoothed the folds of his robe, "Call him in."

Tan Chang, who was let go, felt relieved, but unexpectedly felt a little empty.Thinking back to the master's words just now, he felt uneasy for a while. Could it be that what he was going to say just now was "What I said before, I made you into a fox fur and postponed to see your performance?"

No!
