little fat chirp

The news of King Jing's assassination reached the palace early the next morning.

The emperor, who was lazily lying on the dragon bed, was unwilling to get up at first, and kicked Ahu's heart, frowned and complained to him vaguely, "I'm annoying you, I'll go to you and help me soon..."

The eunuch hurried through the hall and entered the room, stood five or six steps away from the gauze tent with his head bowed, and said in a serious tone, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Jing was assassinated last night and was seriously injured."

Xiao Yan, who was still lazy at first, sat up in fright, lifted the gauze curtain forcefully, leaned out half of her body, "What did you say?"

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Jing was assassinated last night." The eunuch repeated, his face was not very good-looking, this matter is big or small, and it will definitely cause a certain shock in the court.

Such frightening news broke out so early in the morning, what sleepiness is there?

Xiao Yan was always annoyed by the government, but he came to such a place out of the blue, and he felt a headache, "You should step back first."

As soon as the eunuch left, Ah Hu showed his figure and comforted Xiao Yan, "Don't worry."

Xiao Yan walked back and forth in the room with bare feet, "At this time, if such a moth comes out, if I go out and say that I didn't do it, few people outside will believe it."

Although Xiao Yan never really thought about killing his own uncle, he couldn't help but think that it would be better for Xiao Sui to die directly... It would be easier to clean up the mess. The military power was taken back logically, and the government that had been divided into two halves was naturally integrated into one.

But now it happened that Xiao Sui was injured, and now the news must have spread throughout the court, and he didn't know what would happen if he went to the court.Those officials were already very difficult to deal with, but now... Xiao Yan didn't even dare to think about it.

Ahu went to Xiao Yan's side and took his hand, brought him back to the bed to finish, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, the morning court will be canceled in a while, and go directly to Prince Jing's Mansion to visit."

The assassin was sent out by him, and when he didn't come back last night, the fox knew that nothing happened.He even wondered if Xiao Sui was really injured, he had to take a look to rest assured.

In one morning, the news really spread throughout the government and the public. In a short period of time, the public opinion was in an uproar, and generals like Chen Qiming were even more furious. It was only because there was no other obvious evidence at this time that they could not directly confront the emperor. There was a lot of quarrels in private, if Prince Jing's Mansion hadn't stated that they were not entertaining guests at this time, everyone would definitely rush over.

Hearing that the emperor was going to Prince Jing's Mansion to take care of him, he couldn't help scolding "the cat cries and the mouse pretends to be merciful".

Compared with the turbulent wind and unsteady people outside, Prince Jing's Mansion can be said to be very peaceful.

Dongzao cautiously stood by the basin, held his breath and plunged his head into the water, then got up and shook his head to shake off the water droplets on his face, finally raised his head to greet Xiao Sui who was beside him, and said softly, "Ah Sui, Please wipe my face."

The pink traces on his face that he was worried about have not faded away, and he has washed his face three times since he woke up in the morning.

After Xiao Sui had a good temper and helped him wipe off the water droplets on his feathers again, Dong Zao eagerly spread his wings and flew to the bronze mirror to look at it. It's a pity that he washed it so seriously, but the pink color still didn't fade much.

Xiao Sui leaned over, twiddling Dongzao's round face with his fingertips, looked at both sides, and said in a deep voice, "It seems...it still can't be washed off."

Dong Zao struggled to tilt his round head up, and responded in a panic, "Then, what should I do?"

"Actually, it's a little lighter." Xiao Suo held Dongzao's cheek with his fingertips, and said seriously, "You have to be patient, then you can have it in a few days."

He thought Dongzao looked so cute.

But Dongzao obviously cared very much, "No, I want to hurry up."

When the fat maid in front of his head brought him breakfast, she even poked Dongzao on the cheek, saying that he seemed to be singing a big show.

"Do I look like a big opera singer?" Dong Zao didn't know what a big opera singer is, and when he remembered it, he quickly asked Xiao Sui, "Ah Chun told me."

"Singing big plays?" Xiao Sui turned his head and put Bu Jin aside, and was wiping his hands. He thought for a while, and guessed that the fat maid was talking about characters in folk performances in the countryside. is invisible.

Dongzao's tone was worried, she nodded vigorously, "En!", and then looked at him earnestly, "Is that so?"

The red paint on those faces is not slippery, and the performances they made are also full of vulgar jokes.

Xiao Sui thought, how does this compare with his little work?

Therefore, he shook his head at Dongzao with certainty, "It's not like, it's not like at all."

Only then did Dongzao breathe a sigh of relief.

The emperor tidied up a bit, but he didn't dare to be lazy. Although he kept dozing off in the carriage when he came, he immediately cheered up as soon as he got out of the car.

"You're going to be with me later, I'm a little scared." He whispered.

The eunuch standing not far away thought he was talking to him, and asked quickly, "Your Majesty, what did you just say?"

Xiao Yan flicked his sleeves, pretending to be calm, "It's nothing, you stand far away from me."

The fox, who concealed his figure from the side and was only seen by Xiao Yan, raised his hand and gently touched Xiao Yan's neck, with obvious consolation, "I am here."

Ahu looked up at the lintel of Prince Jing's Mansion, and without saying anything else, it was inevitable that he would first think of Dong Zaolai.Ever since Dongzao bumped into here by mistake, he has never heard any news about him.

The fox has practiced for hundreds of years, has been alone and has never had any friends. Dongzao fell from the sky 30 years ago in a daze, with a pitiful and silly appearance. The fox's compassion moved slightly, and he named Dongzao. , and told him some truths about how to behave.

The fox knows Dongzao's nature well, it is not accurate to say that he is stupid, Dongzao just sees the world and people too simply.Even if the fox can give up a lot of things, but on Dongzao's side, he really can't bear to drag him into the water.

"After going in, find a way to rescue Dongzao." The fox stood beside the emperor, and entered the second gate with him all the way, surrounded by the accompanying guards, until they walked to the gate of Mingzhu Courtyard, but there were no figures other than slaves and maidservants to greet them. .

Xiao Yan didn't care about this, but he obviously cared about the fox's words, and frowned suspiciously, "Are you still thinking about that bird?! Save him, I think it's a fart!"

The guards next to him were frightened by Xiao Yan's sudden talk to himself, and so was the eunuch. Although he didn't dare to show it on his face, he was already muttering in his heart, secretly thinking about telling the queen mother about it.

What the queen mother said was indeed correct, there were still monsters around His Majesty, and they did not retreat.

"You know Xiao Sui's temper. How can he care about Dongzao? He must be locked in a corner to fend for himself at this time. It was my mistake that made him come to the capital, so naturally I have to send him back. Needless to say anything else, just say that you are now worried about King Jing's health, and it will be inconvenient to raise Dongzao."

Even though Dongzao seemed to be doing well in the rumors, but he hadn't seen anything with his own eyes, the fox was still skeptical, especially Xiao Sui.

With the fox being so patient, Xiao Yan restrained himself a bit, snorted and stopped talking, which was a tacit attitude.

While talking, the two had already entered the Mingzhu Courtyard. When the communication sounded, a man in charge came up to meet him. He saluted Xiao Yan first, and then said, "My lord was injured by an assassin yesterday and is recuperating."

Xiao Yan had no choice but to show concern, and said, "Is the injury serious? Take me to have a look."

Inside the room, Dongzao stood on the bedpost and tilted his head to look at Xiao Sui who was lying on the bed. The two maidservants beside him were tidying up the blood-stained bandages. After they took two steps outside, Dongzao carefully landed on Xiao Sui's shoulder. She leaned into his ear and asked softly, "Ah Sui, do you want to sleep?"

He didn't quite understand why he lay down all of a sudden when he was fine.

Xiao Sui smiled lightly, and stretched out his hand to tuck Dongzao into the bed, "Yes, you can stay with me."

Hearing that it was sleeping, Dongzao let Xiao Sui do it. He originally wanted to find a small pillow to sleep on, but he didn't expect such a good thing to happen today, letting Ah Sui sleep with him in broad daylight.

As soon as the door opened, Xiao Yan put his hands behind his back immediately to his sides, just like when he was scolded by Xiao Sui when he was young, this habit has never been changed.

The fox took his hand and walked in together with him. All they saw was Xiao Yan going into the house alone.

Dong Zao sleeps beside Xiao Sui in a daze, and vaguely hears someone talking.

"At this time, we must conduct a thorough investigation. I will order people to deal with it strictly. King Jing will take a good rest for a period of time. It is important that he is in good health."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Xiao Sui's tone was a little cold.

Dongzao poked his head out from the warm bed, looked out curiously, and hid it in a corner inconspicuously.When he opened his eyes, he first saw Xiao Yan, and then he saw the fox standing behind Xiao Yan.

Huh, Ahu?
