I became the leopard cub of the paranoid emperor

After Yuan Fu received the order, he and Hong Si set off from the capital immediately, and after ten days of hard work, they arrived at their destination, a small village outside the city of Weizhou.

When he saw the dilapidated courtyard with four walls and the dirty young man, he did not show the slightest surprise or displeasure, nor did he reduce his respect in half.

He is a smart and prudent person, otherwise he would not have become the current imperial eunuch from a small low-rank eunuch.This time, when I went to pick up people in Muzhou, Junshang not only sent him, but also sent Hongsi, a dark guard with excellent skills, to accompany him. Although I don't know the relationship between this young man and Junshang, he will definitely not ask for a word. .

It's just that the process of persuading Luo Bai to go to the capital with him was very difficult. Yuan Fu spoke dryly, and the young man only used the local dialect, repeating a sentence softly but stubbornly:

"My mother is not at home, I have to wait for my mother to come home."

He never looked at the person in front of him, but only stared at the firewood in the stove next to him, with a nervous expression, holding a straw rabbit in his hand.

Yuan Fu suspected that he didn't understand, so he asked, "Can you speak official Chinese?"

Luo Bai still repeated: "My mother is not at home, I have to wait for my mother to come home."

This time, I used standard Mandarin.

After speaking, he said anxiously to the straw rabbit in his hand: "We ignore them, we ignore them."

Yuan Fu and Hong Si looked at each other, and finally figured out the current situation: this half-grown boy with black and gray marks on his face is not in a good mind.

After finding the crux of the problem, it became much easier later on. Yuan Fu used the method of coaxing children, saying that his mother was waiting in the capital, and only then did he persuade people.

When Hong Si went to the town to buy new clothes, Yuan Fu fetched water to wash his face and comb his hair. After Luo Bai heard that these two people took him to the capital to meet his mother, he became less nervous and talked more.

"Mother often lays down and doesn't get up, she doesn't want to get up..."

"But she said a lot to me that night, even touched my head, smiled at me, and praised me for making a good grasshopper cage..."

"My mother is so pretty when she smiles, she has dimples around her mouth, just like me, look...it's just been a long time since I saw her smile."

"But the next morning when I got up, my mother disappeared, and she went out to play again..."

After Yuan Fu washed away the firewood marks on the boy's face, he saw a face that could be described as beautiful.

Red lips and white teeth, eyes like lacquer, the pupils under the crow's long eyelashes, revealing a kind of ignorance and innocence that is not familiar with the world.

Yuan Fu sighed inwardly, he really couldn't find such a good-looking son in the capital, what a pity he was a fool.

When the wooden hairpin on the top of the hair was pulled out, and it fell down like a waterfall of black hair all over his shoulders, Yuan Fu brushed his hair very lightly, while he quietly played with the straw rabbit in his hand. obedient.

After washing up and changing into the new cloth shirts bought by Hongsi, the three of them are about to go on the road.

Luo Bai is not stupid at this time, he knows to check whether the door of the room is closed, whether he has brought a change of clothes, and also a book left by his mother.

Yuan Fu watched him put the old clothes into the bag, didn't say anything to stop him, and even helped him fold them neatly.

Finally going out on the village road, Luo Bai stopped again.

"What's the matter? But did you forget something?" Yuan Fu asked.

Luo Bai said: "I haven't said goodbye to my friends yet."

Yuan Fu looked at the young boys in the distance, and asked, "Are you with them?"

Luo Bai glanced at him, pouted and said, "It's not them, they are not my friends."

So Yuan Fu and Hong Si followed him to the back of the village and stood by a forest.

There were quite a few hares and hedgehogs at the edge of the forest, but before Luo Bai approached, they scattered in all directions. Even the lazy echidna got up from sleep and hurriedly burrowed into the forest.

Luo Bai put his hands around his mouth and said loudly into the woods: "Mother takes me to the capital, don't miss me too much, I will be back soon."

Yuan Fu stared at them and asked Luo Bai: "Are these your friends?"

"Ah."

Luo Bai bent down suddenly, held down a gray rabbit that rushed to his feet in a daze, raised the back of its neck to his eyes, and said in an affectionate tone: "Rabbit, don't miss me too much."

Yuan Fu looked at the rabbit that was about to faint in fright, but didn't make a sound.

The three of them set off, and after the carriage traveled on the official road for ten days, they finally arrived at the capital.

In the carriage, as soon as Yuan Fu lifted the curtain to look outside, he noticed that the person sitting opposite moved and snorted twice, like a mosquito.

Yuan Fu immediately lowered the curtain and asked, "Mr. Luo, do you want some water?"

Luo Bai had a bun on the top of his head, and his black hair and tie were hanging down his shoulders.He was holding a bag of broken flowers in his arms, and he didn't make a sound after hearing Yuan Fu's words, he only pouted his mouth, his fair face was flushed red, and his big eyes seemed to be full of grievances.

Yuan Fu caught a glimpse of the two legs under the cloth shirt tightly twisted, and suddenly realized, he hurriedly called the coachman to stop, took out a stack of yellow papers from the hidden box under the seat, and said to the cloth shirt boy: "Mr. Luo, Let's get out of the car and relieve ourselves."

"Hey, let me go." Luo Bai quickly responded, and was about to jump off the car with his own baggage in his arms, but was caught by Yuan Fu, "Slow down, slow down, be careful not to fall."

After getting out of the car, Yuan Fu pointed to a bush beside the road: "Mr. Luo, you go to the back, the little one is waiting here."

Luo Bai hurried towards the bush with his bundle in his arms, and Yuan Fu asked tentatively, "Shall I help you carry your bundle?"

"No need, no need." Luo Bai shook his head as he walked, his thin white fingers gripping the bundle tightly.

This is the official road from Wuzhou to the capital, and they are the only car on the whole road.Yuan Fu stood by the bushes and looked into the distance, Luo Bai's broken and clear youthful voice was next to his ears.

"Auntie, it's very kind of you. Once I was in the carriage of Tie Zhu's family. I was not allowed to come down to relieve myself. I held back all the way."

"Auntie, do you know horse trace grass? I have a few here. Rabbits like to eat them."

Yuan Fu answered questions and answered them patiently.

"Master Luo, the younger one is neither an aunt nor a woman."

"Aren't you aunt? But you look so white."

Yuan Fu didn't know how to explain the word eunuch, so he laughed: "You are the master, just call me the young Yuan Fu."

"Aunt Yuan Fu, what is master?" Luo Bai's curious voice came from behind the bushes.

Yuan Fu pondered for a while, and said: "I got the order, and I will be at your disposal on this journey. You are the little master. But when you arrive in the capital, if you see that person, that person is your master and all of us." Your master, you have to obey his orders."

After a moment of silence, Luo Bai asked again: "Who is that one?"

"That one...you will know when you arrive."

"But I went to the capital to look for my mother, so that one is gone." After Luo Bai finished speaking, he added firmly: "It's gone, it's gone."

Yuan Fu was afraid that he would make trouble, so he coaxed: "Okay, okay, no see, no see."

The two did not continue on this topic, Yuan Fu sighed lightly.

It was already afternoon when he entered Beijing and returned to the palace, Yuan Fu hurriedly cleaned himself up and changed into his palace clothes, and took Luo Bai to stand in the empty imperial study.

The excitement and novelty that Luo Bai had just entered the palace had faded away. After staring at the paperweight on the desk for a while, he gradually became restless and kept asking Yuan Fu: "Aunt Yuan Fu, where is my mother? Why didn't I Seeing my mother?"

Yuan Fu looked at his nose, nose and heart, so he bent down and put his head on Yuan Fu's chest, looking from bottom to top: "Aunt Yuan Fu, where is my mother? Where is my mother?"

Yuan Fu really had no choice but to comfort him in a low voice: "Be quiet first, and find your mother later, we will see the master soon, so we can't make a fuss at this time."

"I don't want to see any master, I want mother..." Luo Bai stood up straight, pursed his mouth, and muttered slowly.

Yuan Fu was about to say something, but he caught a glimpse of the screen next to the inner room from the corner of his eye, and at some point there was a tall and tall figure, and he immediately shut up and kept his eyes shut, without saying a word.

"It's the palace that I sent someone to take you into. Your mother is not here." With a low voice, Chu Yuzhao slowly walked out of the screen.

"His Majesty."

Yuan Fu immediately prostrated himself on the ground and made a big salute. He caught a glimpse of Luo Bai who was motionless, and wanted to stretch out his hand to grab the hem of his shirt, but he didn't dare to make any moves when he saw the corner of the dragon robe with black background and gold painting standing in front of him.

"Who are you?" In the silence, he heard Luo Bai's curious voice.

Yuan Fu's heart trembled, and he pressed his two hands on the ground, subconsciously tightening them slowly.

After traveling for more than ten days, his feelings for the young man beside him had changed from inquiry and pity to something else.He was afraid that this sentence would offend the king, so he couldn't help holding his breath nervously.

After a suffocating silence, the emperor actually responded, his voice was still very flat, not as angry as he imagined.

"I am your master."

But Yuan Fu's heart still hasn't let go, Luo Bai's next words make his eyes dark again.

"Who am I? I am not my master, I don't want a master, I want a mother."

Tick.

A drop of water slipped from the corner of Yuan Fu's forehead, and dripped on the stone bricks that can be seen.

This sentence can be described as treasonous, not to mention that Luo Bai will be punished, even if he is not sure, he will be angered.

Emperor Zhao didn't answer, Yuan Fu didn't dare to raise his head, and couldn't imagine his expression at the moment, he just weighed quickly in his heart, if Emperor Zhao made trouble, whether he should intercede for Luo Bai, and there was a small chance that Emperor Zhao would spare him.

But Emperor Zhao's next answer made Yuan Fu almost suspect that he had heard wrong, or that there was something wrong with his ears.

"I am Zhen, I am your master, your mother has entrusted you to me."

But Luo Bai continued: "You are me, you are my master? Let's forget it, I don't want you to be my master—huh?"

Yuan Fu's heart was about to jump out of his throat when he was puzzled by the hey, he didn't know what shocking words he would say next.

"You look...have I met you? You used to be from our village?"

Emperor Zhao was silent, Luo Bai finished talking on his own, and then twitched his nose as if sniffing the air. Yuan Fu was anxious to remind him, when he heard his charming voice with joy: "You are...you are Beautiful bro!"

"Presumptuous! This is Your Majesty!" Yuan Fu suddenly raised his head and blurted out to scold him, and then knelt down deeply in front of Emperor Zhao, "Your Majesty, this kid has a mental illness, and his words were unintentional. I implore His Majesty to forgive you. I will teach him a lesson."

His voice was fast and urgent, and after he finished speaking, he lay on the ground, staring at the corner of the clothes in front of him, holding his breath.

However, after a while, he saw that the corners of the dragon robe painted with gold on the black background moved, and the hem of the clothes was wrinkled. Emperor Zhao actually walked to the back room like this. Only the still indifferent voice came from the air: "Yuan Fu, take him Placed in Yuqing Palace."

"Yes."

It took a while for Yuan Fu to wake up from the daze, slowly stood up, looked around the empty imperial study room, and looked at Luo Bai beside him.

Luo Bai stood still uncharacteristically, but there were two blushes on his face, his eyes were fixed on the passage leading to the inner room without blinking, and there was a hazy broken light in his eyes.

"Let's go." Yuan Fu pulled him away and strode away from the imperial study.

On the way to Yuqing Palace, Luo Bai didn't speak, Yuan Fu was thinking about what happened just now, both of them were very quiet.

"I've decided, I'll live with my pretty brother and wait for my mother."

"Ah?" Yuan Fu looked at Luo Bai in a daze, and after he realized it, he covered his mouth with a pale face, "What nonsense are you talking about? Beware of being slapped."

Although Luo Bai's mouth was covered, his eyes turned into crescent moons happily, and he said softly under Yuan Fu's palm: "Aunt Yuan Fu, I want to live here, and I want to see me every day."

Meow--

A cat meowed outside the window, and the shadow of the cat with its teeth and claws was reflected on the window paper, which startled Yuan Fu and interrupted his memory.

He couldn't sleep left and right, so he simply went to the main house next to him to see Luo Bai.

Luo Bai had really fallen asleep this time, snoring lightly, his face was flushed, and he was breathing heavily in sleep.

When Yuan Fu exited the room and closed the door, he heard him chuckle dreamily twice: "...Beautiful brother."
