His Majesty Meow Raises Fish [Rebirth]

Since the frequent occurrence of maritime incidents, Qingzhou has ushered in an extremely hot summer after the severe cold this year.

The Seventh Prince was lying on the porch by the lake blowing in the air, very grateful that he recovered in time.

Otherwise, he would be bedridden like every summer, and he was afraid that he would get prickly heat all over his body.

Qi Jing was lying on the recliner, Little Eleven was sleeping on his stomach, and Qiuqiu was squatting on Uncle Eleven's stomach. The two of them were enjoying the time like this, looking very comfortable.

Although he suffered from a sudden illness, the palace exempted the Seventh Prince from paying his respects, and Qi Jing didn't have to go to the Chongwen Museum and the East Campus for the time being. He could close the gates of the mansion to pass the summer, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Qiu Xi came over with a box containing iced fruits, and put the box on the stone table beside her. Seeing this scene again, she couldn't help grinning.She laughed silently, not interrupting their nap.

At this time, the maid raised her head and looked at the distant shore, and saw Young Master Shaoxuan practicing martial arts by the lake, although the other party did not make a sound, but the sharp wind of fists made others fearful just by looking at them.

Originally, Shaoxuan went to Zhenguo Temple in Qiongning to study with Master Hongchou every two months, and he returned after only a month or so.

After leaving Zhenguo Temple last year, he had already gone back once just after the New Year's Eve. He planned to go there again a while ago, but because His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was ill, the trip was postponed.

Even a court lady like Qiuxi who doesn't know much about martial arts can tell that Master Shaoxuan is already very powerful.

No matter whether it is Master Hong Chou who is a strict teacher who produces outstanding apprentices, or Master Shaoxuan who is gifted and rewarded by heaven, in short, he is a character who even Master Liu, who is a master of martial arts, is full of praise.

Last year, there was a martial arts exam, and because the empress dowager lived for a long time, this year there will be an extra exam.

Both Deng Song and Young Master Shaoxuan from the mansion participated in last year's competition, and both became martial arts talents. This fall, they are ready to take the exam again.

Last year, Young Master Shaoxuan won the first place easily, and Deng Song's grades were not bad compared to his age... But this time, I'm afraid it will not be as easy as last time.

Because when it comes to the first level of the rural examination, in addition to the traditional lifting, riding and shooting, and infantry, martial arts also adds a carbine, and it not only tests the military strength of the school's martial arts talents, but also attaches importance to their strategy.

In fact, from the beginning of the rural examination, martial arts has become "strategy first, followed by martial arts".

So starting from here, a young man like Deng Song who was enlightened late has a disadvantage.

When he was in Mengliang, although there was Luo Qin as his master who taught him how to read, there were too many children in the nursery school, and the food and clothing they received were not enough, so Deng Song, who was a little older, had to look for something he could do. Working, making money and subsidizing the living expenses of younger brothers and sisters, there is not much time to calm down and study.

When you arrive at the Seventh Prince's Mansion, you don't have to worry about making a living, but it is not easy for Deng Song to learn martial arts from the hidden guards. If you want to practice both civil and military skills, you will spend more effort than others, and it will not be possible in a short while. the extent achieved.

Deng Song's master, that is, Liu Song, one of Qi Jing's hidden guards, had expected that Deng Song might have to wait another three years before he could be elected.

But he didn't immediately dispel the youth's enthusiasm, but taught him and spurred him as always, so that he could arouse his greatest potential and go all out.

But what they don't know is that Young Master Shaoxuan, who is not young and seems to have a greater advantage than Deng Song, actually started later than Deng Song.

He is a mermaid, and he didn't live on land. Before he met His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, he could only speak a few words in human language, and he couldn't write his own name.

Fortunately, Shaoxuan's physical fitness is astonishingly strong, and he often used his legs to move around the island when he was young, so he is not even used to walking on the road, and there is a monk like Master Hong Chou who carefully teaches him His martial arts, so progressed rapidly.

As for his process of learning calligraphy, reading and writing, at the beginning, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince personally taught him, accompanied by the Eleventh Prince (this didn’t seem to have any effect), and then Luo Fuzi, who was well-educated, listened to the Seventh Prince. Arrangement, give Shaoxuan a small stove to make up for it, and only then taught Shaoxuan that Yuwen has also made great progress.

It's just that if you want to stand out in the second test where the masters gather, you need to work harder.

Qi Jing is in the mansion these days, and he can't always lie on the bed doing nothing, so he temporarily took over the task of taking care of Xiao Chiyu from Shaoxuan's hands, so that he can spare time to practice martial arts.

Little Akabane likes Shaoxuan and Uncle Qi, so he doesn't really care who puts himself in his lapel and walks around.

Anyway, no matter where it goes, the little uncle will follow it, and then jump, play, eat and sleep with it.

It hadn't seen Qi Jing's ancestor return soul yet, only the little leopard cub, and was confused at first—why there were two little uncles who looked different but had the same breath.

Later, after Xiao Shiyi spared no effort to explain, Xiao Akabane finally understood that the fat uncle with no hair and the fat uncle with hair are actually his little uncles.

It sleeps on Eleven's stomach, and moves up and down slightly as he breathes, and occasionally moves its legs, moving its position a little bit, as if it feels a little hot under the buttocks, so change to a cooler place Squat again.

Xiao Shiyi put his hands on both sides of his stomach, although it was too comfortable to be blown by the small wind, he gradually became a little dazed.But he still cared about little Akabane, whenever the other party moved, the little guy would open his eyes slightly and protect it with his hands.

Qi Jing touched the little guy's neck and found that he was still sweating, so he said: "If the weather is fine tomorrow, I will take you to swim."

Little Eleven lay down and patted his little hands, while Little Akabane turned around - to him, most of the things were new.

Qi Jing gently touched little Chiyu's wings with his hand, and thought: Before Chiyu learned to fly, I wonder if he can learn to swim first.

……

The next day was indeed sunny again, taking advantage of the early morning sun, Qi Jing kept his promise, and together with Shaoxuan took Xiao Shiyi and Xiao Chiyu to the lake to play in the water.

Although the seventh prince thought he was recovering, the imperial doctor Hu who came to ask for his pulse had told the people in the mansion that His Highness should not suffer from heatstroke or cold, so Shaoxuan forbade him to go into the water this time.

——Soak in the cold water for half a day, and then go to the shore to blow the wind, that's okay!

So, the Seventh Prince, who finally got rid of the shameful water and put on loose pants, could only squat on the shore, watching them happily...

If there was no "Jiu Jiu Jiu" from Xiao Akabane, the situation would still be very warm and quiet.

Xiao Shiyi has gourds on his body, so he can easily float on the water. Last year, he has learned to use his hands and feet together to move forward. He also practiced in a basin in the past, so he didn't feel unfamiliar.

Because he was happy, he inevitably became excited, and because he wanted to show his heroic posture in the water in front of his little nephew, he was extra excited. He almost did a toss in the lake for a week and then turned around.

Little Akabane was originally floating with his little uncle, but he soon found out that neither staying on the gourd nor standing on his little uncle's head was not safe at all.

With a huge desire to survive, it stretched out its small wings to Shaoxuan who seemed to be able to stop motionless in the water, and made a hasty cry for help.

Little Eleven heard the sound of the ball above his head and thought it was cheering for himself, so he became more energetic and slapped the water splashing everywhere, making a loud noise.

The little Akabane who suddenly turned into a drowned bird: "..."

Qi Jing was next to him, and he was so contented to watch, especially when he saw that the little Akabane's feathers were wet and shrunk even smaller, and the upturned hair on his head became docile. Laugh out loud.

He wasn't afraid that the two children would be in the water, after all, Xiao Shiyi was fully equipped (hugua) and Shaoxuan was watching over him, so there was no need to worry.

However, Qi Jing was still concerned that it was the first time for little Akabane to go into the water, so he immediately signaled him to "rescue" the little guy.

Little Eleven watched Qiuqiu standing on top of Shaoxuan's head, but he didn't realize that he had become a dangerous person in the eyes of his little nephew.

He snorted and swam to Brother Shaoxuan, stretched out his chubby hand to reach for the ball on top of his head.

How could Little Akabane be willing to go with him again, she fluttered her little wings in fright, and later found that her little uncle couldn't reach it at all, so she was relieved and tweeted twice.

The Eleventh Prince looked at the little Chiyu who was thrown into someone's arms (head) and hugged (top), and then at the tall and tall Brother Shaoxuan. He was about to hum to express his grievance when he heard his own brother calling for him.

"Eleven, come here." Qi Jing waved to Xiao Eleven by the plank road.

Hearing him calling himself, the little guy looked at his little nephew again, and finally swam towards his brother.

When he swam to the edge of the plank road, Qi Jing reached out and touched his little head, and comforted him: "The ball is on you, how can I see how you swim? You can only see it better if you stand farther and higher. Clearly understood."

Xiao Shiyi immediately recovered his smiling face when he heard the words, accepted the reason cheerfully, and when he turned to look at Shaoxuan and Qiuqiu, he showed an extremely bright smile.

Little Akabane suddenly felt her body tremble, and somehow felt like she was being watched.

But it turns out that it may have thought too much, because after the little uncle whispered to the seventh uncle, he stopped pestering it, and swam in the water on his own.

However, his side was still as lively as ever.

It was obviously just a baby doll swimming, but he insisted on creating a battle of several adults playing in the water. The water splashed and splashed, and those who didn't know it thought that the fish in the water had rebelled.

The point is, the little ones are swimming, and they have to turn around and grin at them.

Little Eleven: Hehehe, Qiuqiu must have seen his heroic figure!

Little Akabane: Chirp Chirp Chirp, fortunately I escaped early, otherwise my life would be lost!

……

The second and fifth princes, on behalf of the royal family of Qingzhou, went to neighboring Jizhou to congratulate the new emperor on his enthronement.

When they returned to Tianjing, Qi Heng immediately went to the Seventh Prince to visit Qi Jing.

After observing the other party's face, Qi Heng breathed a sigh of relief: "It looks really good."

"Thank you, brother, for your concern," Qi Jing said with a smile to the second prince, "Brother, this trip went well, and I will definitely win more favor in front of my father."

Although there are five princes accompanying them, but when they are outside, they pay attention to the order of seniority, so naturally Qi Heng comes out more often.

There were rumors in the palace that the seventh prince could not go to Jizhou because of illness, but Qi Heng felt that with his father's temperament, it was absolutely impossible for the two of them to go together.

But he was worried that Qi Jing would be depressed because of this, so he came to visit him.

"I was in a hurry when I went, and I brought you something when I came back." While talking, Qi Heng handed him a box.
