On how to make the big cat sleep obediently [Time Travel]

"Even if Liu Kui intends to retire, the officials around His Majesty only need to mention the fact that Imperial Doctor Jiang gave Miss Zhang's leg ailments, and they still don't understand what the Emperor of Jizhou is thinking. The eldest son has just experienced great sorrow and joy. Don’t dare to disobey His Majesty’s will.”

Thinking of this, Xiaonian felt that the emperor of Jizhou on the throne smiled softly, but he was actually an unfathomable person.

Recalling the scenes of talking with him several times, I only feel chills in my heart.

The little tiger cubs were nestling in Xiaonian's arms and nibbling at each other's claws when they suddenly noticed that their brother was shaking and thought he was feeling cold, so they hugged each other and used their own belly to warm his brother's hand.

Xiaonian felt the little guy's fluffy belly against the back of his hand, and the fear in his heart disappeared instantly, and he immediately smiled.

Seeing that his brother laughed, the little tiger cub didn't seem to be shaking anymore, so he wailed and wailed softly for a while, and sure enough, he was treated by his brother rubbing his stomach.

Before Prince Yu could hug his little doctor, he was cut off by two scheming boys.

He stretched out his hand expressionlessly, still put his arms around Xiaonian, patted his shoulder lightly, and said, "Don't worry, he can't hurt you."

Liu Xin couldn't hurt Xiaonian because Prince Yu was there.

As the regent, Liu Yu owns the three counties of Liyang, which are almost the most affluent places in the entire Jizhou. The annual tax revenue is far ahead among the fiefdoms of the kings, even surpassing the northern border with Xing'an Xueling.

Moreover, he also possessed various privileges, and the Liyang Army in his hands could not even be controlled by the emperor. Although the number was not as large as the sixteen guards of the capital, it was a fierce and invincible army that was brave and good at fighting.

A great man in the country of Hua said that political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Having your own armed forces is the real confidence, otherwise it is useless to have a rich fiefdom. Sooner or later, like the deceased Prince Yu, even the grandson's life-long event will be calculated by the Emperor Jizhou.

The existence of the Liyang Army was the source of Prince Yu's supreme power. Even if Liu Yu was in Beijing, the Emperor Jizhou would not dare to touch him in the slightest.

In fact, this point is also where Xiaonian has been very confused for a long time.

——The city of Liu Xin is still under the dual constraints of the Xu family and the regent until today, no matter how you look at it, it is the fault of Emperor Li!

Emperor Li had no son, and before he died, he passed the throne to his grown-up younger brother, but at the same time made another younger brother who had not yet reached the crown as the regent... Such a behavior is indeed a bit weird, as if deliberately making life difficult for Liu Xin .

Outsiders said that the reason why Emperor Li arranged this way was because Liu Xin was not in good health. At that time, his only son was also born weak, and he was born not long ago, so he wondered if he could grow up well.

Xu's relatives are powerful, if they can't find a way to contain them, in case the new emperor unfortunately happens, Liu Quan will be a child even if he doesn't die young, and he will be kidnapped by his relatives.

Although only the royal family surnamed Liu possessed innate martial arts and could frighten demons, but if the Xu family was not able to hold the emperor to order the world...then the Liu family's country existed in name only.

Therefore, although the well-known and prestigious Prince Yu was not crowned, he was named the Regent and led the Liyang Army to fight against the rich and powerful families of the Xu family.

In Xiaonian's view, it is not impossible for Prince Yu, who has a large army, to disregard the stability of Jizhou and launch a war instead.

Perhaps for Emperor Li, it made no difference whether Liu Xuan was sitting on the throne or Liu Yu was sitting on the throne.

But why didn't Emperor Li directly appoint Liu Yu as the new emperor at the beginning? Was it just because the Xu family supported Liu Xin, who was easier to control and more "obedient"?

In the past, although Xiaonian had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask Liu Yu directly. One reason was that they were not that close. This kind of "why aren't you the emperor" was too "rebellious" in this era. Xiaonian said no. Second, he focused on treating Liu Yu's nightmares, and didn't have too much contact with the intrigues and turbulence in the palace, so he didn't care about the matter, so he wasn't interested in asking more.

But now that he and Liu Yu have connected with each other, and they have already started sharing the same bed, they should be very close, so it doesn't hurt to ask.

Coupled with the fact that he had just experienced a series of major events in the northern border and was afraid of the city of the Emperor Jizhou, his doubts could not be suppressed.

Xiaonian told Liu Yu what he was thinking, and the other party was silent for a moment, then said:

"You just have to remember that Liu Kun doesn't like Liu Xin, and he doesn't like me either. He hates people all over the world, and he doesn't have any kindness towards my Liu family. The arrangement he made when he was dying was not for the sake of Jizhou. , but to make it difficult for everyone, and even hope that the world will be in chaos."

When Xiaonian heard the words, his eyes widened immediately—it was rumored that the Emperor Li was tyrannical, moody, and would kill people at every turn, so it turned out to be so crazy!

However, just by listening to the posthumous title of "Li", one can feel the fear and hatred of the clan and court towards Liu Kun at that time.

After all, not only civilians died at the hands of Emperor Li, but also many dignitaries, even the royal family surnamed Liu.

In fact, just as Emperor Li Liu Kun expected, now Liu Xin, the aristocratic family represented by the Xu family, the powerful officials, and the regent, present a tripartite confrontation, restraining each other, which is indeed not satisfactory.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Xin, who was the puppet of the Xu family back then, can survive to this day under the double threats of the Xu family and the regent, and can stand up to him, how can he be a gentle and kind person!

Xiaonian leaned in Liu Yu's arms, stroking the cub's warm and soft belly with his hands, and suddenly felt that no matter how scary Liu Xin was, he was not afraid.

They have relatives and friends, but the emperor of Jizhou is not even close to the eldest son, so why should they be afraid of a real loner.

After finishing talking about Emperor Jizhou, Xiaonian still sighed: "Although there are other people's calculations and Liu Kui's own considerations, he has met Miss Zhang's family and made a silent promise for her, which shows that he loves her. Miss Zhang's injury is well, and it's a lucky thing for them to get married and live a happy life in the future."

……

Later, just as Xiaonian expected, there was no unreasonable conflict between the princess Wang and her son.

Liu Kui quickly persuaded her mother that the marriage had not been withdrawn. Instead, Prince Yu's Mansion took the initiative to find the Zhang family, expressing that they would invite Doctor Jiang from Beijing to treat Miss Zhang's leg problems.

Doctor Jiang examined Zhang's daughter's pulse and said that although the situation was indeed a bit serious, Miss Zhang's family was young after all, and she had just been injured, so she still had a chance to recover.Not to mention completely cured, at least it can be no different from ordinary people.

The Zhang family was very grateful for this, but because of their previous behavior, they did not dare to be courteous to the eldest son. Even if the young lady of the Zhang family later married Liu Kui, who was already crowned king, they were ashamed to call themselves the Yue family.

After Liu Xuan and the rest of the Miao family were almost cleaned up, the Emperor Jizhou, who was unable to perform the canonization ceremony in person because of illness, finally ordered Liu Kui, the eldest grandson of Prince Yu, to be the King of Kui County, inheriting the three counties of Huai'an, which was the fief of Prince Yu. And there is no need to go to Beijing specially, just receive an order from Xing'an to thank you.

Prince Yu didn't want to point fingers in Xing'an and cause people to misunderstand, so he immediately took Doctor Jian out for "inspection".

As for those families who have been involved with Liu Xuan's lineage but have not died for their crimes, they will all be handed over to the newly named Kuijun King, who will be arrested or released to gain prestige or favor.

In fact, staying in Xing'an was pretty good, but Prince Yu didn't like that Kui Junwang would talk to his little doctor whenever he had something on his mind, so he left the county mansion as soon as summer came and went further north.

They didn't walk this way in a hurry, they almost stopped and walked, and when they entered the mountains, they slowed down even more, and the itinerary was very loose.

Xiaonian liked the feeling of slowing down the pace, but at first he was worried that Prince Yu would follow them to "herd the sheep" so that the Emperor Jizhou would find a reason to say that he was not, that he was negligent of duty.

After all, Liu Yu came to the north with official duties, so it seemed a bit loose to spend all his time traveling around the mountains and rivers.

But Liu Yu didn't take it seriously: "We go into the mountain now, he can't find anyone, so he can guess well."

Xiaonian: "..." Even Zaizai and Guaiguai still want to be affectionate after fighting each other, you two royal brothers really only kill each other but not love each other.

Based on his "knowledge" of Liu Xin during this period of time, he felt that His Majesty the deep-minded emperor would really be like what Liu Yu said, and he had to think too much if he couldn't find anyone.

If Liu Yu stays in Xing'an, Liu Xin will feel that he wants to collude with Liu Kui and create an ally so as to form a pincer attack on the capital in the northeast;

If Liu Yu went around the counties, the other party would suspect that he wanted to join forces with the local aristocratic families to harm the interests of the imperial court;

But if Prince Yu said that he wanted to return to Beijing, he would definitely not agree... In short, it was very contradictory.

Perhaps for Liu Xin, it doesn't take him much energy to think about this kind of thought.

If Liu Yu lives like this, Xiaonian will definitely feel distressed, but whether the Emperor Jizhou will be tired is not something he cares about.

After seeing the beautiful scenery of Xing'an Xueling, the astonished little doctor Jian quickly forgot about Emperor Jizhou and never thought about it again.

……

After summer, most of Xing'an Xueling has no snow, but the scenery is excellent.

It has been a long time for Xiaonian to walk in such a green forest oxygen bar. Now breathing the fresh air in the mountains, he feels that his body and mind have been cleansed.

Although Prince Yu was there, ordinary beasts and demons dare not approach at all, but for safety reasons, they still took the local hunter's road into the mountain, only occasionally leaving the route to encounter unexpected scenery.

"The mountains and forests here are long in winter and short in summer. There are seven or eight months of winter in a year, and summer only lasts for two months. If we come back after two months, I am afraid it will not be like this. After the coldest Sometimes, it can even be sprinkled with water to form ice."

For them, the northern border is a strange place, and Jiang Changshi made sufficient preparations before departure.

When approaching Xueling, he also made a special trip to find some experienced mountain people at the foot of the mountain, and inquired about the situation of Xing'an Xueling in detail, so he can calmly act as a half-expert at the moment.

"Since it is a snow ridge, it is natural that the snow scene is the most beautiful, but it should be very cold at that time,"

Xiaonian looked up at the tall tree canopy that could cover the sky, and echoed Jiang Zhidao: "If I were from here, I would definitely not dare to enter the mountain after the heavy snow closed the mountain."

Some beasts hibernate, but some don't necessarily. Foraging for food in winter is more ferocious, not to mention that there is something even more terrifying hidden in this deep forest.

The little tiger cub was repeatedly ordered by his brother not to run around, so he walked close to his feet.

Because the legs are too short, half of the little guy's body is often sunk in the thick fallen leaves. From above, it seems to be swimming in it, only the little head, back and buttocks are exposed.

They are just the age when they are curious about everything, especially in this kind of strange place where there are differences everywhere. From time to time, the little tiger cubs turn their heads to look at the wild flowers next to them, the unknown grasses, and the smoky Small animals that hide and disappear.

As they walked, they drew attention to a cluster of fruit-hanging plants.

Seeing that they were about to crawl into the grass, Xiaonian quickly picked them up, and then took them to find a place where the grass was not so dense and stopped to look at the bushes.

"This is bilberry, which is the red bean from the north." Jiang Changshi saw Xiaonian squatting on the ground with the cub in his arms, looking at a cluster of ruby-like fruit, and said with a smile, "It's edible, Doctor Jian, would you like to try it? "

Xiaonian was holding the little tiger cub and couldn't move his hands. At this time, Liu Yu, who was following behind him, squatted down, picked a bunch of cranberries, and handed them to his mouth.

Embarrassedly peeking to the side, Xiaonian noticed that everyone was looking away with interest.

His face was slightly hot, but finally he lowered his head and took a bite of a bilberry. Immediately, he felt a fragrance and sweet and sour taste pouring into his mouth, and he thought it was quite delicious.

Liu Yu had been watching his expression from the side, and it was obvious that Xiaonian still liked this kind of fruit, so he picked some more and fed them to his little doctor.

"Aooooooow~" "Aooooow~" The little tiger cub was on Xiaonian's wrist, staring at the "big guy" who put the bilberries into his brother's mouth one after another, and then patted Xiaonian's cheek with his little paw. Arm, seems to want to try too.

They are not very keen on the sense of color, and the reason they are attracted to this plant is only because the fruit on it looks edible (fog).

Xiaonian was a little hesitant, thinking about whether he could give this to the little guy, but Liu Yu said firmly, "No."

Little Tiger Cub: "..." How can there be such a bad person!

They looked at Xiaonian expectantly, hoping that his brother would not listen to the "big guy".

However, Xiaonian has always believed in Prince Yu in a field he is not familiar with, so he rubbed his chin against the little tiger cub's head helplessly: "From now on, my brother will not eat, and stay with you."

At this time, the most taboo is that adults do not feed children, but they eat happily, so they cannot lead by example.Although Xiaonian quite liked this taste, but in order to appease the little tiger cub, he decided to be more restrained.

Fortunately, what made Little Doctor Jian feel more relaxed was that in this Xing'an Snow Mountain, the little tiger cubs had no time to lose their temper - because they would be distracted by new things in a short time.

Sure enough, before writhing in Xiaonian's arms for a while, the cubs stopped suddenly. They pricked up their ears and looked towards somewhere in the forest without blinking, showing a vigilant look.

After a while, there was a rustling sound in the grass, and then the sound spread farther and farther, and became smaller and smaller, until there was no movement at all, and then the little tiger cub looked away and nestled back into his brother's arms.

Xiaonian squeezed their little paws, and said with a smile, "What did you find, baby?"

Although he knew that he would not be able to understand what they were saying, Xiaonian still liked to "talk" to them.

Little Tiger Cub also likes to "communicate" with his brother, so when Xiaonian asked, he immediately wailed and wailed. Although the cubs were not together, he would occasionally groan and groan twice, as if to supplement it.

After hugging Xiaonian for a while, he felt a little sore in his hands. Before he could say anything, Liu Yu had already picked up the little tiger cub.

The little guy only wriggled in Prince Yu's arms at first, and then found a comfortable position, and he was not polite to him.

Little Tiger Cub: "This way the big guy won't be able to hold hands with his brother, great!"

Prince Yu: "This way the little brat can't rely on Xiaonian's arms, good!"

Xiaonian feels very relieved to see how they get along more and more harmoniously (Fog)—outing is indeed a way to promote a better parent-child relationship!

……

The Xing'an Xueling forest covers a very wide area, and all kinds of rare and exotic animals thrive in the vast green forest.

As the spring is over, it is the time when many animals move around with their newborn cubs, so the woods are much more lively than in winter.

When encountering small and docile animals, Prince Yu would restrain his breath so that Xiaonian and the little tiger cub could observe them closely.

So they successively saw deer, mink, hare and several kinds of pheasants, and even wild boar, roe deer and bear.

Although they saw many small animals that were rarely seen along the way, the purpose of their trip was to find a creature that was only found in Xing'an Snow Ridge, so they kept heading north until they found their group.

This kind of forest elf named horned deer, if Xiaonian guessed correctly, should be a reindeer, but he has never seen a wild reindeer before, so he is still looking forward to it.

In Xing'an Xueling, there is actually a people who specialize in raising horned deer. Because horned deer are good at crossing forests and swamps, they become the main production and transportation tools of local hunters, and are known as "the boat of forest and sea".

It's just that they don't want to go where there are people, so what they are looking for is a herd of horned deer that has not been domesticated.

In the first few days, they clearly arrived at the place the mountain people said, but they found nothing... Those beautiful elves seemed to be hiding in the depths of the dense forest, and there was no possibility of them showing up.

But one afternoon, they finally found the traces of the horned deer passing by, and saw their traces near the water source where litmus grew.

I saw horned deer in twos and threes in the forest, both male and female, and some were accompanied by smaller horned deer, which were cubs just born in spring.

The hair on their bodies is grayish brown or chestnut brown, and the face, abdomen, underside of the tail and inside of the limbs are all white. Adult individuals have long horns on their heads, with complicated branches.

"The antlers of the horned deer are actually short and straight for the first time. The antlers will fall off in the next spring, and then grow antlers again. In autumn, they will ossify into horns, and then the long horns will fork. After that, the antlers will fall off every year, and then re-grow. grow, and branch out one more fork."

Jiang Zhi lowered his voice and said to Xiaonian.

They were separated from the herd of horned deer by a water source, and they were in a downwind place, so the other party did not notice that someone was secretly admiring their beauty.

Xiaonian and the cub in his arms looked straight at the horned deer opposite, their expressions were exactly the same even though they were humans and tigers.

Their eyes are full of joy, excitement, and amazement, but there is no greed.

Until the horned deer ate the litmus, drank water, and then slowly left, finally disappearing into the woods, they didn't step forward to disturb them, but just watched quietly and carefully.

In fact, whenever Xiaonian said he wanted to touch or even own a horned deer, Prince Yu and his personal guards could easily catch the live deer and fulfill his wish, but Xiaonian had never given birth to such a deer. idea.

Although the little tiger cubs liked the little horned deer very much, but their elder brother said that they should not cross the river to scare them, so when they were about to call, they swallowed back the sound in time. In Nian's arms, his eyes were bright.

When Liu Yu looked back at this scene, a strange emotion flashed in his heart.

——Maybe only his little doctor can teach them so well...

……

After several days of hard trekking and waiting silently, they finally saw the horned deer today, which made Xiaonian and the little tiger cub feel very excited, and they were immersed in joy for a long time.

Then they camped in a clearing in the woods, and had a simple supper.

The starry sky in Xueling in summer is simply breathtaking.

"Before and after the summer solstice every year, there is almost no night here. Looking at the sky at midnight, it is not deep darkness, but like evening or dawn, with a twilight."

Jiang Changshi introduced to Xiaonian: "I heard from the locals that if you are lucky enough, you can still see a changing and colorful light curtain in the northernmost sky, which only appears once or twice in a few years, which is really rare. gone."

Xiaonian thought silently: This should be the phenomenon of eternal day and aurora, but now it is more than a month away from the summer solstice, so we must not be able to see such a spectacle.

Although he missed the ultimate beauty, Xiaonian didn't feel much regret. This time he was able to see the scenery that he couldn't see in the past, and he was able to experience it with Liu Yu and the others. He already felt very satisfied.

Xiaonian was sitting leaning against Liu Yu's chest, while the little tiger cubs were sitting on his stomach, holding their heads up to look at the stars in the sky, occasionally they couldn't help stretching out their little paws and pointing at them, as if they wanted to call Xiaonian what to look at.

Xiaonian touched their little heads, but held Liu Yu with the other hand, humming the melody softly.

Hearing that familiar melody, Liu Yu suddenly remembered that one night last year, he had stood outside the wall of Wanfengyuan and listened to Xiaonian humming these melodies to the little tiger cubs, but he was not his own at that time.

But at this moment, Xiaonian was in his arms, and he was no longer an observer.
