Tyrant teases cats daily
Chapter 65 Zhou Xiuyao: The national teacher feels lonely...how?
Old Yundi was really surprised, did he help a lot?What can he do to help?
But since Prince Zhou said so, he can only pretend to be stupid hahaha, after drinking for three rounds, it is rare for the host and guest to have a good time.
The old Emperor Yun asked Zhou Xiuyao to be escorted out of the palace by the imperial steward who was beside him. After confirming that the other party had left the palace, the old Emperor Yun breathed a sigh of relief: he finally sent the plague god away, but... there is no rumor about the prince this week. It's not easy to get along with, but it's easy to talk to.
At least there is a limit to advancing and retreating, and it is still polite to him as an emperor.
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao came out of Dayun Kingdom's palace, stood at the gate of the palace, and stopped suddenly.
The hidden guards behind him didn't know why, but they didn't dare to ask too much. When they saw their wise and mighty Crown Prince, they suddenly laughed softly, but the inexplicable laughter made them hairy all over.
"Your Highness, Your Highness? But what happened?" Couldn't hold back after all, the dark guard asked nervously.
"It's okay, I'm very happy to be alone." He has been looking for someone for five years, and it is very likely that he is right under his nose at this moment. How can he be unhappy?
But that little thing...how dare he deny him? !
If tomorrow is confirmed...
Zhou Xiuyao lowered his eyes, covering the light in his eyes, and then thought of something, and slowly clenched the hands hanging by his side: "Go, check the Lingzu."
The dark guards looked at each other, but they didn't dare to say anything, and soon two people went down to make arrangements.
Xu Jinwen didn't know that he was already half exposed. At night, he hugged the cat, thinking about the reunion in three months, and fell asleep happily.
Before dawn the next day, Xu Sheng called Xu Jinwen up, and began to bathe, burn incense and change clothes. In order to make the cat look more like an auspicious beast, Xu Sheng also prepared a set of cat clothes for him, which looked quite decent. He was held in Xu Jinwen's arms, lying there, still snoring like a sleeper.
The eight-person chariot was outside, and Xu Jinwen went out in a serious manner. After he was seated, the curtain fell, and it was even more difficult to distinguish his voice.
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao entered the palace early in the morning, because the other party was Prince Zhou, and now he was an honored guest ordered by the old Emperor Yun, so naturally no one dared to neglect him.
The head of the imperial court personally brought the recipe requested by Zhou Xiuyao, and said respectfully: "Prince Zhou, the emperor has gone to the imperial mausoleum with the national teacher to pray for blessings. This is the list of dishes that the prince wants the national teacher to eat yesterday. .”
Zhou Xiuyao lowered his eyes and took it with a blank expression. He just glanced at it and was stunned.
His phoenix eyes stared deeply at the dishes listed above. Even though he had thought about the possibility long ago and confirmed it, he still couldn't hide the complicated emotions in his heart...
Zhou Xiuyao almost couldn't control his emotions because of the feeling of regaining what was lost, so he immediately ran over regardless and snatched the person away.
He stared at the menu.
If one or two favorite dishes are the same, it may be a coincidence, but if all of them are the same, it is absolutely impossible to be a coincidence.
Zhou Xiuyao clenched the thin paper tightly in his hand, but why...why he was clearly in front of him, why did he refuse to recognize him?
Zhou Xiuyao's thin lips were coldly pursed, and the sudden cooling down of his body made the imperial steward tremble all over. This week, the prince...what's the matter?
Why are you suddenly angry?
"Prince Zhou?" The imperial chief asked anxiously.
Zhou Xiuyao pursed his lips and hummed: "Gu knows, thanked Emperor Yun for Gu, there is still something to do, so don't send me off."
Then Zhou Xiuyao flicked his sleeves and strode directly outside the palace.
After just walking a few steps, all kinds of complicated emotions welling up in my heart were suddenly taken up by the pitiful letters of Miss Xiaodong. Between the lines, Xiaodong obviously had a heart for him, but why did he suddenly What kind of national teacher did you become?
Could it be that his so-called cultivation at that time meant following the old master?
Or, what suffering does he have now that he cannot recognize him?
Zhou Xiuyao thought he knew little things well enough, if it wasn't necessary, he couldn't bear it.
Zhou Xiuyao thought that Xu Jinwen might not have concealed it intentionally, so the dark and handsome face under the mask softened: It is best to have a serious reason, otherwise... just wait for him, and when he catches someone, he will definitely "punish" him.
A group of hidden guards followed behind in fear, what happened, Your Highness?
It's overcast and sunny for a while, and gentle for a while, this... makes me feel creepy, Your Highness.
After Zhou Xiuyao figured it out, he calmed down, but he still couldn't wait to see people: "Go, go to the altar."
No one dared to say anything, a group of people flew on their horses and went to the imperial mausoleum.
On the other side, Xu Jinwen sat nervously on the chariot, in front of him was the dragon of the old Yundi, and the bright yellow curtain could be vaguely seen clearly.
The sacrifice will be held later, although Xu Jinwen has already memorized the process by heart.
But what if I forget a certain step?
Or if something went wrong, wouldn't it be disgraceful to Master?
Xu Jinwen was nervous here, as soon as he lowered his head, he saw the cat cub who was sleeping stupidly, Xu Jinwen complained: "The little thing wanted to sleep so much, let him eat so many snacks last night."
Those were all prepared for him by His Highness... They were all eaten by little things.
But looking at Mao Zai Zai's soft belly, thinking that the place where he was staying was so close to His Highness, Xu Jinwen couldn't help pursing his lips and giggling.
Cat Zai Zai woke up rubbing his eyes, and saw his father staring at him, smiling strangely, his tail tightened as he stared at him: "Meow?" Daddy—the cub didn't steal it?
Why stare at him so "terribly"?
Xu Jinwen held Mao Zai Zai's two tender paws, "Zai Zai, do you miss your mother?"
The cat's eyes lit up instantly: "Meow!" Think!
Xu Jinwen chuckled: "Your mother is a great beauty, it's a pity...how come you can't see beauty at all?"
The disliked kitty lowered his head and looked at his white fur and fleshy paws. If he could recognize a human, how terrifying would he be?
Maozaizai looked at Xu Jinwen with disgust, and came to a conclusion: Daddy is stupid.
The duo hated each other, so they wandered all the way to the imperial tomb.
When it was almost time to arrive, Xu Sheng was afraid that Xu Jinwen would show some flaws, so he came over to give him some advice.
This is the only way to let it go.
When Xu Jinwen was not talking, he was quite imposing. Under the watchful eyes of civil and military officials and the old Yundi, he came down from the chariot with the auspicious beast in his arms. He walked with a sense of immortality every step of the way. The white robe covered his face with a mask, and there were only two very small openings exposed on the mask, so he could see from the inside, even his eyes couldn't see what it looked like, let alone whether the national teacher was male, female, old or young.
Xu Jinwen hugged the cat cub and walked towards the altar step by step. When he was halfway there, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance. Xu Jinwen looked over reflexively, and everyone looked over, and saw Not far away, a group of people came rushing towards this side, the leading man with his cloak fluttering, staring at this side with sharp eyebrows, because he was far away, Xu Jinwen could only feel that he was looking at him, But not sure.
Just by looking at his figure, Xu Jinwen knew it was Zhou Xiuyao.He couldn't help tightening the hand holding the cat.
Cat Cub was already bored. When he was in the Spirit Race, Uncle Xu Sheng was afraid that his father would make a mistake, so he practiced holding him countless times like this. He could become a national teacher instead of his father!
Mao Zai Zai puffed out his small chest and was very proud, but unfortunately...he couldn't speak human words, so he had a lot of blood, but he had nowhere to show it.
As a result, following his father's line of sight, he saw the prince who was feeding him delicious snacks, and Mao Zaizai became excited.
Xu Jinwen's gaze fell directly on Zhou Xiuyao, staring at him greedily, woo woo woo, I still see clearly like this, Your Highness...
Everyone's eyes were also attracted by Zhou Xiuyao and his party, so no one noticed Xu Jinwen's strange behavior.
But they didn't notice, but Zhou Xiuyao saw it. He squinted his eyes and stared at the figure. It was blocked by a screen before, and Xu Jinwen was sitting, so he didn't see it clearly. Now this familiar figure, even if After five years, he has grown a lot taller, but he is still his...
Zhou Xiuyao stared at the figure with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to engrave the other person's voice and appearance into his eyes and heart.
On Xu Jinwen's side, it was obviously so far away, but seeing His Highness's gaze, his heart jumped.
The kitty was sucking his little tongue and staring at the "feeder"'s chest, but he heard his father's beating heartbeat, which made his ears hurt.
Cat Cub raised his head, and tugged at Xu Jinwen's lapel with his small claws: "Meow?" Dad, did you mess up the sacrifice?
Otherwise, why are you so guilty that your heart is beating like thunder?
Xu Jinwen lowered his head, met his cub's eyes, finally regained some sanity, pinched his sharp ears: "What nonsense? Little crow's mouth."
Cat Zaizai felt aggrieved: "Meow..." Daddy, you are fierce, Zaizai, and Zaizai will not be with Daddy in the future.
Xu Jinwen was amused by Mao Zai Zai's bulging cat face, and poked it.
Mao Zai Zai flicked his tail, and Xu Jinwen finally calmed down, otherwise, he was really afraid that this sacrifice would not be able to go on.
This is to lose the face of their spirit race.
Everyone finally came back to their senses, and the guards stopped Zhou Xiuyao who had finally reached the front: "Bold, who is intruding?!"
The old Emperor Yun and all the civil and military officials also looked confused, what does the prince want to do this week?
Why did they suddenly run to the place where they sacrificed in the imperial tomb?
Zhou Xiuyao turned over with his people and didn't rush in. His sharp eyes calmed down at this moment, and he looked at the old Emperor Yun quietly: "I sacrifice and pray for blessings once every ten years. I have come from a long way this time. I have never seen it before. If Yun If the emperor doesn't mind, I just want to watch it, but I don't know if it's feasible?"
Although Zhou Xiuyao's words were a question, but he was the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was a guest from afar. As the host, the old Emperor Yun would naturally not be so stupid as to directly offend him.
It's just...Although the old Emperor Yun didn't mind much, after all, although offering sacrifices and praying for blessings is a major event, he didn't say that there was no reason not to let others see it, but he was afraid that the new national teacher would be jealous, so he didn't answer for a long time.
Xu Jinwenzhi listened with stunned ears. Hearing Zhou Xiuyao's words, he couldn't help being disappointed. Didn't His Highness come to see him?
He is now a national teacher!
Xu Jinwen didn't dare to look back, but he always felt that His Highness's gaze was still on him, so he couldn't help straightening his back, he, he, he, he, he, he is so powerful now!
Zhou Xiuyao took a glance from the corner of his eye, and naturally saw Xu Jinwen's small movements. Thinking of the dazed and nervous little face under this solemn and dignified mask at this moment, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Why, isn't Emperor Yun not allowed to watch alone?" Zhou Xiuyao said slowly.
Old Emperor Yun was choked: Can you say this?Just when the old Emperor Yun didn't know what to do, the national teacher who hadn't spoken all this time actually spoke up. The ethereal voice came, which was obviously not real, but it was very clear when it came to his ears: "All living beings are equal, Since it is here, it is destined...Emperor Yun, please let me go."
The national teacher said so, and the old Emperor Yun couldn't wait for it, so he waved Zhou Xiuyao to come in.
Zhou Xiuyao walked towards the altar step by step, his eyes fixed on the figure all the time, and the corner of his mouth raised: "Gu... Thank you for your kind words."
Xu Jinwen's small body froze, feeling elated.Maozai raised his head, he has been with Xu Maomao for so long, even though his stupid father is wearing a mask, he still has a clear picture of what he looks like at the moment, he thinks this father is really strange, he always feels that he is so beautiful He was bubbling, and he spoke with a small upbeat ending. If he was taught to change his pitch, he would be ashamed at this moment.
After Zhou Xiuyao was released, the sacrificial ceremony continued, because it had been rehearsed countless times in advance, and generally speaking, there would be no problems.
But just at the moment when it was over, as Xu Jinwen turned around, he finished reading the words of blessing for the coming year...
Suddenly, several men in black flew towards Xu Jinwen in the distance.
"Grab!" Following the word, the entire altar was in chaos.
"Protect the emperor... protect the national teacher..."
Xu Jinwen was stunned: Damn...why didn't Xu Sheng tell him that there is a danger of being robbed as a national teacher?
The cat cub curled up in Xu Jinwen's arms and was startled. Thinking of what he had overheard earlier, he hummed weakly: "Meow?" Daddy—Prince Toshi wants to snatch you!
"Don't talk nonsense, His Highness won't..." Xu Jinwen replied reflexively.
Immediately, I heard a voice from behind: "The national teacher seems to know Gu quite well."
Xu Jinwen: "..." Damn it, when did His Highness come behind him?
Sure enough, as Xu Jinwen turned around with a stiff neck, he saw Zhou Xiuyao coming behind him at some point, suddenly stretched out his arm, put his arms around his waist, brought him into his arms, held the sword in one hand, A man in black swung back.
The sharp eyes were full of bloodthirsty ruthlessness: "Tu, don't leave a single one behind."
The hidden guards he brought immediately nodded in unison, deafeningly: "Here!"
Immediately, the entire altar was in chaos.
Zhou Xiuyao was staring at the newly released "National Teacher", but he didn't expect that someone would dare to snatch him away?It's not a small courage.
At the beginning, Old Emperor Yun also thought that it was Zhou Xiuyao who came to rob people.
But then I thought about it wrong, the national teacher agreed to help Prince Zhou find someone, why did Prince Zhou bother?
And Zhou Xiuyao's next actions to protect the national teacher confirmed the old Emperor Yun's thoughts. Sure enough, these people did not belong to Prince Zhou.
While being protected by the guards, Lao Yundi shouted: "Be sure to save the life of the national teacher."
There is only one national teacher of the Spirit Race in a hundred years, if something happens, they Dayun Kingdom...
So the national teacher absolutely can't have an accident.
The cat cub shivered in Xu Jinwen's arms in fright. This was the first time the little guy had encountered such a thing. Although Xu Jinwen usually had a lot of "tricked" sons, his heart ached right now.
The voice softened, and he couldn't help touching the half of Mao Zai Zai's head: "Zai Zai is not afraid...not afraid,...I am here."
Xu Jinwen originally wanted to say that his father was here, but when the words came to his lips, he quickly changed them.
Just kidding, he is the national teacher now, how can he be the father of the auspicious beast, this is messed up...
Zhou Xiuyao killed people while protecting people and leading them to avoid, and was distracted to hear these gentle words.
Zhou Xiuyao frowned, glanced at the trembling little thing from the corner of his eye, obviously he should be jealous, it was the first time Mao Mao coaxed others so tenderly and patiently besides him...
However, the shy little appearance of this little brat actually made Zhou Xiuyao feel inexplicably soft-hearted.
He stretched out his hand and stroked the cat's hair: "There is loneliness, and nothing will happen to you."
I don't know if Zhou Xiuyao and Xu Jinwen's reassurance played a role, the cat cub was really not afraid, he poked his head out secretly, and glanced at the killing Prince Feeding. Looking at Zhou Xiuyao: "Meow!" The prince is so powerful!
Xu Jinwen was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but his eyes flashed, hehehe, His Highness is usually fierce, but he is very gentle with the cubs, I don't know if His Highness knows that he really gave birth to a cat, How will he react?
It's a pity that we have to wait for three months...
Because Zhou Xiuyao was by his side, Xu Jinwen felt inexplicably at ease, so one person and one cat became the melon-eating crowd and even clapped their paws to encourage them.
Not far away, the old Emperor Yun and the civil and military officials who were still worried: "..."
It seems they were worrying for nothing.
The national teacher is worthy of being a master, facing life and death, he can face it so calmly.
On the other hand, they trembled, what's the point?
So, the old Emperor Yun directly raised his head and straightened the dragon robes on his body: "Cheer up your spirits, they are just a few thieves, with the national teacher here, why should we be afraid?"
Everyone was crying without tears, but they could only respond: "The emperor is absolutely right."
Xu Jinwen didn't know what old Emperor Yun was thinking, the only feeling he had now was that His Highness was really handsome.
Even the posture of cutting people is so handsome.
These thieves are so bold that they must not be let go.
Because of Zhou Xiuyao's presence, and the people he brought, each of them was an elite hidden guard, soon, those men in black were all killed.
Those who were captured alive immediately bit their tongues and killed themselves, and did not survive.
These people looked like dead soldiers who had undergone special training. Zhou Xiuyao put his arms around Xu Jinwen tightly, frowned and stared at the hidden guard who came to complain: "Go and find out who wants to snatch the national teacher."
All the dark guards nodded: "Here."
But I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, as expected, His Highness is so infatuated, in order to find out the whereabouts of the young master, he even protects the life of the national teacher like this, it is so touching.
Seeing that the crisis was resolved, Lao Yundi and others breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his clothes, and walked towards Xu Jinwen.
Old Emperor Yun: "Is the national teacher okay?"
Only then did Xu Jinwen realize that he was still in Zhou Xiuyao's arms, his face was flushed under the mask, but his voice was serious: "It's okay, thanks to Prince Zhou's help, I am very grateful."
Zhou Xiuyao's arms were empty, and the body temperature of the other party remained on his fingertips. He took a deep look at Xu Jinwen: "It's a trivial matter, and it's nothing to worry about."
The old Emperor Yun did not expect that the violent Prince Zhou in the rumors was actually such a good person, and his eyes changed when he looked at Zhou Xiuyao: "It is not a trivial matter, Prince Zhou has helped me a lot this time, if something happens to the national teacher, it is impossible Imagine... when I return to the palace later, I will definitely hold a banquet for His Highness to express my heart."
Zhou Xiuyao narrowed his eyes slowly: "Then I will be disrespectful. But before that, Emperor Yun needs to consider one thing."
"Ah? What is it?" Old Emperor Yun was frightened just now, and now he can't think of anything else to consider?
Zhou Xiuyao's eyes fell on Xu Jinwen's mask from the face of the old Emperor Yun, as if he could see the person under the mask through the mask.
"The identities of these villains are unknown. I'm afraid they won't give up if they don't achieve their goals. Since the other party can sneak into the altar of the imperial tomb, they may also hide in the palace. The safety of the national teacher... I'm afraid it's not safe." Zhou Xiuyao said slowly. In a word, old Emperor Yun and all civil and military officials changed their faces in fright.
Cat Zaizai also trembled: "Meow——" Dad——!You can't have an accident, you can't let the cubs go.
Xu Jinwen looked at Xu Sheng resentfully: Brother, before you came, you didn't say that being a national teacher is still a dangerous job.
A few more times, his little heart might not be able to bear it.
The old Emperor Yun responded again and again: "Prince Zhou is very right, the national teacher can rest assured, I will definitely send heavy troops to protect the Xiangyun Palace, and will never let the national teacher have any accidents."
Zhou Xiuyao slowly reminded: "Even if it is guarding, it is only outside Xiangyun Hall. If something happens, it may be too late."
Old Emperor Yun also has a headache, he can't let the guards enter Xiangyun Palace, right?
This national teacher does not allow it.
Old Emperor Yun looked at Zhou Xiuyao, for some reason, he always felt that Prince Zhou seemed to have a way: "I don't know Prince Zhou...is there a way to kill two birds with one stone?"
Zhou Xiuyao took a deep look at Xu Jinwen who was beside him: "I think...the best way is to find a person with strong skills to protect him personally by his side."
Old Yundi: "Huh?" Where can I find such a person?Even if I found it, it might be too late...
Zhou Xiuyao suddenly smiled: "Meeting is fate, the national teacher feels lonely...how?" Following these words, Zhou Xiuyao's deep phoenix eyes were fixed on Xu Jinwen.
Xu Jinwen: "..."
But since Prince Zhou said so, he can only pretend to be stupid hahaha, after drinking for three rounds, it is rare for the host and guest to have a good time.
The old Emperor Yun asked Zhou Xiuyao to be escorted out of the palace by the imperial steward who was beside him. After confirming that the other party had left the palace, the old Emperor Yun breathed a sigh of relief: he finally sent the plague god away, but... there is no rumor about the prince this week. It's not easy to get along with, but it's easy to talk to.
At least there is a limit to advancing and retreating, and it is still polite to him as an emperor.
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao came out of Dayun Kingdom's palace, stood at the gate of the palace, and stopped suddenly.
The hidden guards behind him didn't know why, but they didn't dare to ask too much. When they saw their wise and mighty Crown Prince, they suddenly laughed softly, but the inexplicable laughter made them hairy all over.
"Your Highness, Your Highness? But what happened?" Couldn't hold back after all, the dark guard asked nervously.
"It's okay, I'm very happy to be alone." He has been looking for someone for five years, and it is very likely that he is right under his nose at this moment. How can he be unhappy?
But that little thing...how dare he deny him? !
If tomorrow is confirmed...
Zhou Xiuyao lowered his eyes, covering the light in his eyes, and then thought of something, and slowly clenched the hands hanging by his side: "Go, check the Lingzu."
The dark guards looked at each other, but they didn't dare to say anything, and soon two people went down to make arrangements.
Xu Jinwen didn't know that he was already half exposed. At night, he hugged the cat, thinking about the reunion in three months, and fell asleep happily.

Zhou Xiuyao's thin lips were coldly pursed, and the sudden cooling down of his body made the imperial steward tremble all over. This week, the prince...what's the matter?
Why are you suddenly angry?
"Prince Zhou?" The imperial chief asked anxiously.
Zhou Xiuyao pursed his lips and hummed: "Gu knows, thanked Emperor Yun for Gu, there is still something to do, so don't send me off."
Then Zhou Xiuyao flicked his sleeves and strode directly outside the palace.
After just walking a few steps, all kinds of complicated emotions welling up in my heart were suddenly taken up by the pitiful letters of Miss Xiaodong. Between the lines, Xiaodong obviously had a heart for him, but why did he suddenly What kind of national teacher did you become?
Could it be that his so-called cultivation at that time meant following the old master?
Or, what suffering does he have now that he cannot recognize him?
Zhou Xiuyao thought he knew little things well enough, if it wasn't necessary, he couldn't bear it.
Zhou Xiuyao thought that Xu Jinwen might not have concealed it intentionally, so the dark and handsome face under the mask softened: It is best to have a serious reason, otherwise... just wait for him, and when he catches someone, he will definitely "punish" him.
A group of hidden guards followed behind in fear, what happened, Your Highness?

No one dared to say anything, a group of people flew on their horses and went to the imperial mausoleum.
On the other side, Xu Jinwen sat nervously on the chariot, in front of him was the dragon of the old Yundi, and the bright yellow curtain could be vaguely seen clearly.
The sacrifice will be held later, although Xu Jinwen has already memorized the process by heart.
But what if I forget a certain step?
Or if something went wrong, wouldn't it be disgraceful to Master?
Xu Jinwen was nervous here, as soon as he lowered his head, he saw the cat cub who was sleeping stupidly, Xu Jinwen complained: "The little thing wanted to sleep so much, let him eat so many snacks last night."
Those were all prepared for him by His Highness... They were all eaten by little things.
But looking at Mao Zai Zai's soft belly, thinking that the place where he was staying was so close to His Highness, Xu Jinwen couldn't help pursing his lips and giggling.
Cat Zai Zai woke up rubbing his eyes, and saw his father staring at him, smiling strangely, his tail tightened as he stared at him: "Meow?" Daddy—the cub didn't steal it?
Why stare at him so "terribly"?
Xu Jinwen held Mao Zai Zai's two tender paws, "Zai Zai, do you miss your mother?"
The cat's eyes lit up instantly: "Meow!" Think!
Xu Jinwen chuckled: "Your mother is a great beauty, it's a pity...how come you can't see beauty at all?"
The disliked kitty lowered his head and looked at his white fur and fleshy paws. If he could recognize a human, how terrifying would he be?
Maozaizai looked at Xu Jinwen with disgust, and came to a conclusion: Daddy is stupid.
The duo hated each other, so they wandered all the way to the imperial tomb.
When it was almost time to arrive, Xu Sheng was afraid that Xu Jinwen would show some flaws, so he came over to give him some advice.
This is the only way to let it go.

The white robe covered his face with a mask, and there were only two very small openings exposed on the mask, so he could see from the inside, even his eyes couldn't see what it looked like, let alone whether the national teacher was male, female, old or young.
Xu Jinwen hugged the cat cub and walked towards the altar step by step. When he was halfway there, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance. Xu Jinwen looked over reflexively, and everyone looked over, and saw Not far away, a group of people came rushing towards this side, the leading man with his cloak fluttering, staring at this side with sharp eyebrows, because he was far away, Xu Jinwen could only feel that he was looking at him, But not sure.
Just by looking at his figure, Xu Jinwen knew it was Zhou Xiuyao.He couldn't help tightening the hand holding the cat.

Otherwise, why are you so guilty that your heart is beating like thunder?
Xu Jinwen lowered his head, met his cub's eyes, finally regained some sanity, pinched his sharp ears: "What nonsense? Little crow's mouth."
Cat Zaizai felt aggrieved: "Meow..." Daddy, you are fierce, Zaizai, and Zaizai will not be with Daddy in the future.
Xu Jinwen was amused by Mao Zai Zai's bulging cat face, and poked it.
Mao Zai Zai flicked his tail, and Xu Jinwen finally calmed down, otherwise, he was really afraid that this sacrifice would not be able to go on.
This is to lose the face of their spirit race.
Everyone finally came back to their senses, and the guards stopped Zhou Xiuyao who had finally reached the front: "Bold, who is intruding?!"
The old Emperor Yun and all the civil and military officials also looked confused, what does the prince want to do this week?
Why did they suddenly run to the place where they sacrificed in the imperial tomb?
Zhou Xiuyao turned over with his people and didn't rush in. His sharp eyes calmed down at this moment, and he looked at the old Emperor Yun quietly: "I sacrifice and pray for blessings once every ten years. I have come from a long way this time. I have never seen it before. If Yun If the emperor doesn't mind, I just want to watch it, but I don't know if it's feasible?"
Although Zhou Xiuyao's words were a question, but he was the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was a guest from afar. As the host, the old Emperor Yun would naturally not be so stupid as to directly offend him.
It's just...Although the old Emperor Yun didn't mind much, after all, although offering sacrifices and praying for blessings is a major event, he didn't say that there was no reason not to let others see it, but he was afraid that the new national teacher would be jealous, so he didn't answer for a long time.
Xu Jinwenzhi listened with stunned ears. Hearing Zhou Xiuyao's words, he couldn't help being disappointed. Didn't His Highness come to see him?
He is now a national teacher!
Xu Jinwen didn't dare to look back, but he always felt that His Highness's gaze was still on him, so he couldn't help straightening his back, he, he, he, he, he, he is so powerful now!
Zhou Xiuyao took a glance from the corner of his eye, and naturally saw Xu Jinwen's small movements. Thinking of the dazed and nervous little face under this solemn and dignified mask at this moment, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Why, isn't Emperor Yun not allowed to watch alone?" Zhou Xiuyao said slowly.
Old Emperor Yun was choked: Can you say this?Just when the old Emperor Yun didn't know what to do, the national teacher who hadn't spoken all this time actually spoke up. The ethereal voice came, which was obviously not real, but it was very clear when it came to his ears: "All living beings are equal, Since it is here, it is destined...Emperor Yun, please let me go."
The national teacher said so, and the old Emperor Yun couldn't wait for it, so he waved Zhou Xiuyao to come in.
Zhou Xiuyao walked towards the altar step by step, his eyes fixed on the figure all the time, and the corner of his mouth raised: "Gu... Thank you for your kind words."
Xu Jinwen's small body froze, feeling elated.Maozai raised his head, he has been with Xu Maomao for so long, even though his stupid father is wearing a mask, he still has a clear picture of what he looks like at the moment, he thinks this father is really strange, he always feels that he is so beautiful He was bubbling, and he spoke with a small upbeat ending. If he was taught to change his pitch, he would be ashamed at this moment.
After Zhou Xiuyao was released, the sacrificial ceremony continued, because it had been rehearsed countless times in advance, and generally speaking, there would be no problems.
But just at the moment when it was over, as Xu Jinwen turned around, he finished reading the words of blessing for the coming year...
Suddenly, several men in black flew towards Xu Jinwen in the distance.
"Grab!" Following the word, the entire altar was in chaos.
"Protect the emperor... protect the national teacher..."
Xu Jinwen was stunned: Damn...why didn't Xu Sheng tell him that there is a danger of being robbed as a national teacher?
The cat cub curled up in Xu Jinwen's arms and was startled. Thinking of what he had overheard earlier, he hummed weakly: "Meow?" Daddy—Prince Toshi wants to snatch you!
"Don't talk nonsense, His Highness won't..." Xu Jinwen replied reflexively.
Immediately, I heard a voice from behind: "The national teacher seems to know Gu quite well."
Xu Jinwen: "..." Damn it, when did His Highness come behind him?
Sure enough, as Xu Jinwen turned around with a stiff neck, he saw Zhou Xiuyao coming behind him at some point, suddenly stretched out his arm, put his arms around his waist, brought him into his arms, held the sword in one hand, A man in black swung back.
The sharp eyes were full of bloodthirsty ruthlessness: "Tu, don't leave a single one behind."
The hidden guards he brought immediately nodded in unison, deafeningly: "Here!"
Immediately, the entire altar was in chaos.
Zhou Xiuyao was staring at the newly released "National Teacher", but he didn't expect that someone would dare to snatch him away?It's not a small courage.
At the beginning, Old Emperor Yun also thought that it was Zhou Xiuyao who came to rob people.
But then I thought about it wrong, the national teacher agreed to help Prince Zhou find someone, why did Prince Zhou bother?
And Zhou Xiuyao's next actions to protect the national teacher confirmed the old Emperor Yun's thoughts. Sure enough, these people did not belong to Prince Zhou.
While being protected by the guards, Lao Yundi shouted: "Be sure to save the life of the national teacher."
There is only one national teacher of the Spirit Race in a hundred years, if something happens, they Dayun Kingdom...
So the national teacher absolutely can't have an accident.
The cat cub shivered in Xu Jinwen's arms in fright. This was the first time the little guy had encountered such a thing. Although Xu Jinwen usually had a lot of "tricked" sons, his heart ached right now.
The voice softened, and he couldn't help touching the half of Mao Zai Zai's head: "Zai Zai is not afraid...not afraid,...I am here."
Xu Jinwen originally wanted to say that his father was here, but when the words came to his lips, he quickly changed them.
Just kidding, he is the national teacher now, how can he be the father of the auspicious beast, this is messed up...
Zhou Xiuyao killed people while protecting people and leading them to avoid, and was distracted to hear these gentle words.
Zhou Xiuyao frowned, glanced at the trembling little thing from the corner of his eye, obviously he should be jealous, it was the first time Mao Mao coaxed others so tenderly and patiently besides him...
However, the shy little appearance of this little brat actually made Zhou Xiuyao feel inexplicably soft-hearted.
He stretched out his hand and stroked the cat's hair: "There is loneliness, and nothing will happen to you."
I don't know if Zhou Xiuyao and Xu Jinwen's reassurance played a role, the cat cub was really not afraid, he poked his head out secretly, and glanced at the killing Prince Feeding. Looking at Zhou Xiuyao: "Meow!" The prince is so powerful!
Xu Jinwen was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but his eyes flashed, hehehe, His Highness is usually fierce, but he is very gentle with the cubs, I don't know if His Highness knows that he really gave birth to a cat, How will he react?
It's a pity that we have to wait for three months...
Because Zhou Xiuyao was by his side, Xu Jinwen felt inexplicably at ease, so one person and one cat became the melon-eating crowd and even clapped their paws to encourage them.
Not far away, the old Emperor Yun and the civil and military officials who were still worried: "..."
It seems they were worrying for nothing.
The national teacher is worthy of being a master, facing life and death, he can face it so calmly.
On the other hand, they trembled, what's the point?
So, the old Emperor Yun directly raised his head and straightened the dragon robes on his body: "Cheer up your spirits, they are just a few thieves, with the national teacher here, why should we be afraid?"
Everyone was crying without tears, but they could only respond: "The emperor is absolutely right."
Xu Jinwen didn't know what old Emperor Yun was thinking, the only feeling he had now was that His Highness was really handsome.
Even the posture of cutting people is so handsome.
These thieves are so bold that they must not be let go.
Because of Zhou Xiuyao's presence, and the people he brought, each of them was an elite hidden guard, soon, those men in black were all killed.
Those who were captured alive immediately bit their tongues and killed themselves, and did not survive.
These people looked like dead soldiers who had undergone special training. Zhou Xiuyao put his arms around Xu Jinwen tightly, frowned and stared at the hidden guard who came to complain: "Go and find out who wants to snatch the national teacher."
All the dark guards nodded: "Here."
But I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, as expected, His Highness is so infatuated, in order to find out the whereabouts of the young master, he even protects the life of the national teacher like this, it is so touching.
Seeing that the crisis was resolved, Lao Yundi and others breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his clothes, and walked towards Xu Jinwen.
Old Emperor Yun: "Is the national teacher okay?"
Only then did Xu Jinwen realize that he was still in Zhou Xiuyao's arms, his face was flushed under the mask, but his voice was serious: "It's okay, thanks to Prince Zhou's help, I am very grateful."
Zhou Xiuyao's arms were empty, and the body temperature of the other party remained on his fingertips. He took a deep look at Xu Jinwen: "It's a trivial matter, and it's nothing to worry about."
The old Emperor Yun did not expect that the violent Prince Zhou in the rumors was actually such a good person, and his eyes changed when he looked at Zhou Xiuyao: "It is not a trivial matter, Prince Zhou has helped me a lot this time, if something happens to the national teacher, it is impossible Imagine... when I return to the palace later, I will definitely hold a banquet for His Highness to express my heart."
Zhou Xiuyao narrowed his eyes slowly: "Then I will be disrespectful. But before that, Emperor Yun needs to consider one thing."
"Ah? What is it?" Old Emperor Yun was frightened just now, and now he can't think of anything else to consider?
Zhou Xiuyao's eyes fell on Xu Jinwen's mask from the face of the old Emperor Yun, as if he could see the person under the mask through the mask.
"The identities of these villains are unknown. I'm afraid they won't give up if they don't achieve their goals. Since the other party can sneak into the altar of the imperial tomb, they may also hide in the palace. The safety of the national teacher... I'm afraid it's not safe." Zhou Xiuyao said slowly. In a word, old Emperor Yun and all civil and military officials changed their faces in fright.
Cat Zaizai also trembled: "Meow——" Dad——!You can't have an accident, you can't let the cubs go.
Xu Jinwen looked at Xu Sheng resentfully: Brother, before you came, you didn't say that being a national teacher is still a dangerous job.
A few more times, his little heart might not be able to bear it.
The old Emperor Yun responded again and again: "Prince Zhou is very right, the national teacher can rest assured, I will definitely send heavy troops to protect the Xiangyun Palace, and will never let the national teacher have any accidents."
Zhou Xiuyao slowly reminded: "Even if it is guarding, it is only outside Xiangyun Hall. If something happens, it may be too late."
Old Emperor Yun also has a headache, he can't let the guards enter Xiangyun Palace, right?
This national teacher does not allow it.
Old Emperor Yun looked at Zhou Xiuyao, for some reason, he always felt that Prince Zhou seemed to have a way: "I don't know Prince Zhou...is there a way to kill two birds with one stone?"
Zhou Xiuyao took a deep look at Xu Jinwen who was beside him: "I think...the best way is to find a person with strong skills to protect him personally by his side."
Old Yundi: "Huh?" Where can I find such a person?Even if I found it, it might be too late...
Zhou Xiuyao suddenly smiled: "Meeting is fate, the national teacher feels lonely...how?" Following these words, Zhou Xiuyao's deep phoenix eyes were fixed on Xu Jinwen.
Xu Jinwen: "..."
