Mao Tuan always wants to attack me

Syracuse, the capital of Baiguo.Inside the palace.

The arrival of the New Year Festival makes the usually solemn and cold palace a little more angry.It has been less than a year since the new emperor ascended the throne, because he has a dull temper and is busy with state affairs all day long, so he has not established a concubine yet.There is only his biological mother in the harem, and the empress dowager lives there, and there are few people in the palace.In order to prepare for the celebration, the palace people carefully arranged, and the dull palace in the past has now become adorned with lights and festoons.

Taiyi Palace.

A white figure stepped into the garden step by step.Several maids arranged in the courtyard saw the person coming, and put down their work one after another, bowed their heads and saluted: "Welcome Your Majesty."

"Flat body."

Bai Shuyu nodded lightly, signaling the palace people to keep quiet.The palace maids and attendants stood silently on both sides, watching the slender young emperor walk past them and walk towards the door of the Queen Mother's bedroom.

His confidant Shu Ge asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you need to inform the Queen Mother?"

Bai Shuyu said softly: "No hurry, I'm waiting for the Queen Mother outside the door."

Empress Dowager Wen is the biological mother of Bai Shuyu, the current emperor of Bai Kingdom.After the death of the first emperor, the queen mother was immersed in pain for a long time, and her body was always ill, and she was depressed all day long.This time, the emperor adopted Lord De's proposal to hold a selection meeting for the imperial holy beasts, and collected cute and lovable beasts from all over the country, among which was the consideration of pleasing his mother.

The sun was rising gradually, and the thin sunlight in the cold winter was slantingly reflected on the ground. The entourage accompanied the emperor in white clothes and waited quietly.Finally, there was a sound from the Empress Dowager's bedroom, and two court ladies walked out, gently pushing open the vermilion gate of the Taiyi Palace.

As soon as the maids opened the door, they were surprised to see the emperor standing silently at the door.Bai Shuyu was dressed in a luxurious white imperial robe, her beautiful silver-white long hair hung down her waist softly, and her light-colored eyes were as peaceful as water.The sunlight slanted into the front of the Taiyi Palace from behind him, setting a faint golden edge on the white figure.

The emperor's face is handsome but not ostentatious, even if he restrains himself as an emperor, it also implies a deterrent power without anger.The maids didn't dare to keep their eyes on him, and they all bowed and saluted. Someone had already entered to inform the queen mother.

Not long after, the queen mother's personal maid came out and respectfully invited the emperor.Bai Shuyu walked into the palace, and saw that the Queen Mother had finished grooming and was sitting at the small table.

"Why did the emperor come so early, and didn't let anyone inform Ai's family? Have you been waiting outside the palace for a long time?"

"It's okay, I'm just waiting for a while, I don't want to bother the Queen Mother." Bai Shuyu shook his head lightly, and sat down at the table.The maids put the breakfast refreshments on the table one after another, and then quickly retreated, leaving only the emperor mother and son to eat inside.

"It's another new year..." The Queen Mother murmured as she looked at the palace's completely new attire, her gaze wandering into the distance, as if she remembered something.

Bai Shuyu recalled that last year today was the time when the late emperor was seriously ill, and the people in the palace had no intention of celebrating the new year, and he and his mother had been working hard on the late emperor's condition.Now a year has passed, and things are changing in the palace.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager couldn't help feeling sad, he changed the subject and said, "Tomorrow is the New Year's Ceremony. At that time, all the royal families will come to celebrate the New Year. They will bring all the rare and exotic beasts from all over the country to gather here. The front hall of the imperial palace must be very lively. How about the Queen Mother going to see it too?"

The Empress Dowager understood, she stopped her sentimental expression, and changed into a faint smile: "Okay, it's time for the Ai family to leave this Taiyi Palace. It's not good to be bored in the room all day. "

Bai Shuyu personally poured hot tea for his mother.The queen mother thanked him for his kindness, and was about to drink tea, she suddenly asked in a low voice, "I heard from the Ai family that the idea of ​​holding a holy beast selection meeting at this ceremony was proposed by Lord De?"

The emperor gently put the teapot on the table, nodded: "Exactly." His light eyes met the empress dowager's deep gaze, and he saw the warning look in the mother's eyes, and said softly: "My child has a sense of propriety."

People in the harem are not allowed to interfere in politics, it is inconvenient for the Empress Dowager to say it clearly, but Bai Shuyu already knows what she means.

This Prince De is the younger brother of the former emperor and the uncle of the new emperor, and he is extremely powerful in both the court and the army.For a period of time after the death of the first emperor, the people in the court were unstable, and Prince De's own attitude towards the new emperor's ascension was also vague for a time, neither expressing his support nor actually doing anything against him.

The queen mother and Bai Shuyu were very afraid of this prince.After all, Bai Shuyu was still young, and the previous emperor passed away early. Compared with the full-fledged Prince De, the power in his hand seemed weaker.

Fortunately, in the days after Bai Shuyu ascended the throne, Lord De did not make any obvious moves, and the new emperor's regime gradually stabilized.The only move Lord Reed made recently was to propose to hold a strange beast selection meeting to celebrate the first Chinese New Year after the new emperor ascended the throne.

Bai Shuyu didn't know what Prince De's plan was, but he knew that this person was greedy for power and would definitely not give up on the throne.What's more, Bai Shuyu has not been married so far, and has no imperial heir.Before setting up the crown prince, Lord De still has a lot of opportunities.

After breakfast, the Empress Dowager's personal maid walked over with a fiery-colored flame-tailed dog.The decorations in the palace are all in plain and elegant colors, and the fiery red Yanwei dogs are jumping excitedly in the palace. This bright color adds a lot of festiveness to the cold palace.The Queen Mother picked up her beloved pet from the ground and put it on her lap. The Flametail dog whined and obediently warmed its master with its scorching body temperature.

"Queen Mother, I still have some things to deal with, so I'll go back to Zhengyi Palace first."

The queen mother sent Bai Shuyu out of the palace, raised her cold hand and shook his wrist.Bai Shuyu looked into her mother's eyes, nodded slightly, bid farewell to the queen mother, and walked away.

The Alien Beast Selection Conference... Maybe it will be a good show?

The corner of Bai Shuyu's mouth curled up into a warm smile, his mind was heavy.

=====

"General, why don't you let Dongming come... we're running out of time."

"Don't stop, it will be fine in a while."

There was a panic in the carriage.Xiao Yuntian was pressed on the car seat by General Mo's big hand, snoring non-stop.There is no other reason, General Mo's family wanted to rush to the last moment before the draft, and put more makeup powder on Tuanzi's fur with the makeup powder his wife gave him, but he made a mess because of his hands and feet.Xiao Yun, who was being manipulated by him, lay on the seat hummingly - he had already chosen to give up treatment.

The follower Dongming looked anxiously: "Master, if we don't go out, we will be late!"

"Okay, right now." The impatient General Mo shook his hand, and only heard a puff, and a small half box of makeup powder was poured on Xiao Yuntian's head, and the flying powder made the ball cough repeatedly.

"Cough, cough, snort...!"

Seeing this, the general glanced at Dongming with a stiff expression guilty, wiped the hair ball twice randomly, then picked up the ball and got out of the carriage.

"Alas—sir, wait!"

General Mo has a strong physique and walks with wind. Even the light-footed Dongming is out of breath after chasing him, not to mention that Xiao Yuntian, who is caught by him, has already been turned around.The two hurried into the gate of the palace with a beast, and attendants came to welcome him into the palace.

"Hey, this palace, tsk tsk, tsk tsk... really spectacular!"

On the large square outside the front hall of the Zhengyi Palace, the venue was decorated extremely gorgeously.Relatives of the emperor, descendants of the family, important government officials...these important figures of the Bai Kingdom gathered here.The attendant made a "please" gesture to General Mo, signaling him to take a seat in the front row.

General Mo hugged the hairball, and Dongming followed behind him. They found the reserved seat and found that the surrounding area was almost full.The man on the left of his seat was chatting happily with other people, when he raised his eyes and saw General Mo rushing over, he teased, "General Mo, you are late again."

"Luo Cheng, you came early. I was delayed on the way." General Mo panted slightly, and took his seat anyway.Beside him, his friend Luo Cheng, who is also a famous general in the army, exchanged pleasantries with him, and his eyes fell on the Mao Tuan that Mo Chengwei was carrying in his arms.

"Haha, Cheng Wei, I didn't expect you to be so squeamish, and even bring a pistol here!" Luo Cheng, like General Mo, has a carefree and bold temper. He glanced at Mao Tuan roughly, and said haha Laughing, "Why, are you afraid of the cold?"

"This is not a pouch." Mo Chengwei said, and took the whole hair ball out of his arms, "Look, this is a gift that the general wants to present to the Holy Majesty today!"

"what?"

Hearing what he said, Luo Cheng took a closer look and saw that Mao Tuan rolled his purple eyes and smacked his lips lazily as a greeting to him.

"Hey, it's true, this thing is a living thing! It looks like a pistol, and it can move unexpectedly."

He stretched out his hand to snatch it, but Mo Chengwei withdrew his hand quickly, "Hey - wait, I just groomed my precious spirit beast carefully, don't mess it up again."

"Hmph, stingy." Luo Cheng teased, and immediately, he leaned over and said mysteriously: "Although your white-haired ball is cute, it is by no means as good as my strange beast."

"Oh?" Mo Chengwei showed dissatisfaction, and said, "Take a look. I don't believe there is anything more watery and moving than my spirit beast!"

Xiao Yuntian, who was held tightly by him, rolled his eyes: General Mo, you are really not good at words, this compliment is so nasty!

But Luo Cheng played tricks again, closed his eyes and shook his head with a very awkward expression: "Hey, you will know when the time comes."

After a while, the guests were seated, and the Spring Festival ceremony began.Xiao Yuntian listened to the prime minister reading out the lengthy emperor's edict in front of him, as if he had returned to the speech of the principal in middle school, listening to it was boring.

His eyeballs rolled around, looking for the location of the legendary beauty emperor, wanting to catch a glimpse of the holy face.Helpless, the emperor sat too far away from him, and Xiao Yuntian was hugged tightly by Mo Chengwei as if he was a treasure, and it was difficult for him to move his body.

No matter how much he straightened his body, he couldn't see the beauty, so Xiao Yuntian had no choice but to give up, lying on Mo Chengwei's lap and dozing off.

Finally, after all kinds of cumbersome ceremonies, Mo Chengwei, who was almost as sleepy as Xiao Yuntian, cheered up under the reminder of his friend, poked Xiao Yuntian by the way, and reminded in a low voice: "Hey, Mao Tuan , don’t sleep, it’s almost your turn to play. Today is the first day of the new year, you have to give our Mo family a good omen!”

Mao Tuan yawned lazily and stretched his limbs.

"The imperial sacred beast selection begins—please arrange the contributors in order..."

"The time has come, let's go!"

On the spot, Luo Cheng ordered his followers to open the cage covered with black cloth behind his seat.Xiao Yuntian turned his eyes curiously, wanting to see what this "superior baby" who "comes out after a thousand calls" looks like, but the moment the other party showed up, he was stunned: Luo Cheng was locked in a cage. What he saw was nothing but a strange guy with a huge head and colorful skin.As soon as the thing saw the light of day, it seemed to be stimulated by the sunlight, and after a moment of daze, it roared loudly:

"Quack! Quack! Quack—"

The sudden roar made all the people present look sideways, but Xiao Yuntian and Mo Chengwei, who were in front of them, were unprepared and were almost knocked to the ground by the deafening loud croak.

"Ha! This is the magic weapon of this general - the hibiscus frog in the wetland!"

Seeing a man and a beast stunned in place, Luo Cheng proudly introduced.And this is not finished yet, after the Furong Frog roared loudly, the huge sound waves shook Xiao Yuntian's stomach, and his body trembled involuntarily.

The hairball shrank back, and a familiar tingling sensation passed over the skin all over her body. There were several sounds of "Zi La", and the dazzling lightning flashed by.General Mo flinched from the shock, and instinctively let go of his hand with an awow.The hairball fell to the ground with a puff...
