The Virtuous Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 114 Sending a Cat (3)

Hearing this, the emperor himself was obviously a little dazed. After looking at Liang Jiugong for a while, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in disbelief: "She asked you to say that?"

"Ah... yes." Liang Jiugong replied softly, recalling Jiaorong's expression just now, and coughed slightly, "Miss Jiaorong originally wanted to return the cat, but I heard that you are working hard for state affairs, and I am a little worried .”

In fact, Liang Jiugong didn't see the slightest bit of worry from Jiaorong's expression, but as Jiaorong said, in order to make the emperor feel a little better, it is necessary to tell these white lies.

The emperor probably knew this too, and he didn't appear very excited, but there was still a smattering of joy in his eyes.Afterwards, the emperor looked at Liang Jiugong, and asked indifferently, "So... where's the cat?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Jiugong couldn't help swallowing, he had already talked about this, why is the emperor still obsessed with cats?Liang Jiugong picked his finger at the bottom, and said helplessly: "I don't know what's wrong with Zhuohua. Ever since he was picked up by Wu Ya, he has been sticking to Wu Ya's side, and he refuses to let the slave bring him back."

Hearing this, the emperor frowned puzzledly, and his voice sank a little: "It has been kept in Qianqing Palace from the beginning to the end, but it was picked up for a day and refused to come back? The little girl is right about it. What have you done?"

After all, it is a cat that has been spoiled for many years, and it is really difficult to choose high or low when it is put together with the newly-appointed concubine.Liang Jiugong sighed, and replied: "I don't know about this slave, but since the young master Wu Ya returned the cat on his own initiative, he probably didn't have any thoughts about Zhuohua. The slave will just ask someone to bring it back tomorrow."

Regarding this, the emperor silently nodded his head twice, raised his hand slightly to send Liang Jiugong away, but suddenly thought of something when he raised his eyes, and said: "Wait a minute."

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Liang Jiugong took two steps forward, bowing his body very respectfully.

The emperor didn't know what he was thinking, and after a few seconds, he glanced at Liang Jiugong lightly, and said softly: "There is no need to ask the cat back."

"Huh?" Liang Jiugong obviously didn't expect the emperor to say that, and he was a little dazed.

"I will give that cat to her. There are many cats in front of the imperial court. The one that comes and goes, Zhuohua is rebellious by nature, and she is indeed a match for her. Putting this person and cat together, it can be regarded as a good match." The words in the emperor's mouth It sounds very casual, but the eyes are a bit complicated.

Naturally, Liang Jiugong also saw something wrong in the emperor's expression. If it was really as simple as planning to give a cat, the emperor's expression probably wouldn't be so meaningful.

But who dares to ask more about what the emperor said?Liang Jiugong lowered his head slightly, and said softly, "Yes."

Although Jiaorong said that she had no intention of raising a cat, the moment she really told her that she had given Zhuohua to her, Jiaorong was surprised but also a little surprised.After all, Concubine Yi is now helping Concubine Zhao to take care of the chores in the harem. She can't be bored with Concubine Yi all day long. what a bad thing.

Two days later, Jiaorong was squatting on the ground looking at Zhuohua in a daze, and from time to time she would say to it: "Didn't Eunuch Liang say that you are very favored by the emperor? people?"

"Is it because you ate too much in Qianqing Palace and they don't want to support you anymore?" Jiaorong raised her eyebrows provocatively at Zhuohua. Going to play jiaorong.

After getting along for so many days, Jiaorong's reaction is already very fast now.Seeing Zhuohua's big paw slapping towards him, Jiaorong stood up without saying a word, leaving no room for Zhuohua to react.

At this time, Bai Sang, who was cleaning the table next to her, stopped her work, looked at Jiaorong and smiled softly, and asked in a low voice: "Little master, I have seen you playing with this cat these days." , I always wanted to ask, is this a little male cat or a little female cat?"

"To tell you the truth, I've been thinking about this issue for the past few days, and I haven't come to a conclusion yet." Jiao Rong gave a "tsk", glanced at Bai Sang, and then said: "Every time I want to turn it over When I watched it, it didn't let me move. However, it should be either a kitten, or a father-in-law who has been cleaned."

When Zhuohua heard Jiaorong's words, it seemed as if he understood it, he became anxious immediately, and jumped to grab Jiaorong's knee, his big eyes were shining with anxiety.

Seeing this, Bai Sang chuckled lightly, and said in agreement: "My servant thinks that a beautiful name like Zhuohua must be a little female cat, which is a good match."

Just as Jiao Rong was about to say more, at this moment, a familiar voice came from outside the door, it was Liang Jiugong, he smiled slightly, and replied: "This makes Miss Bai Sang guess wrong, although Zhuohua is a very beautiful name, but it is a clean male cat. You can’t say this in front of it, Zhuohua doesn’t like others to mention it.”

Hearing this, Jiaorong, Baisang and Zhuohua all looked towards the door, only to see that the emperor was slowly walking into the hall, and Liang Jiugong was following behind him.

These days, the emperor is busy fighting day and night, and almost no one in the harem can see his shadow. Jiaorong doesn't know whether he should feel honored to let the emperor come here on his own initiative.

However, Jiaorong just glanced at the emperor casually, and then moved his eyes to Liang Jiugong who was behind him, "Eunuch Liang, you left Zhuohua in Chengqian Palace without even saying hello, you really made me prepare a bit." None. None of us in Chengqian Palace have raised cats, so we don’t know what to feed Zhuohua these days.”

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at Liang Jiugong. Being looked at by these two eyes at the same time, Liang Jiugong's body softened, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead: "It's because the slave is not careful enough. Don't blame me, my master. The slave will leave after a while." The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a servant who specializes in raising royal cats in the palace to Chengqian Palace."

"Thank you, Eunuch Liang." Jiao Rong's voice was very soft, and then she looked at the emperor casually, her voice and expression became much colder, and she said as if asking casually: "The emperor is not in the Qianqing Palace at this time. For official business, why did you come to the harem?"

The emperor snorted coldly, naturally he knew the meaning of Jiaorong's words, he was just asking him why he came here to find trouble again.Regarding this, the emperor didn't look at her, but said quietly: "I was approving the memorial, but suddenly my hands were itchy and I wanted to touch the hair on Zhuo Hua's head, so I came to Chengqian Palace specially to find Zhuo Hua."

When the emperor said the three words "Looking for Zhuohua", he especially emphasized his tone, as if deliberately letting Jiaorong know that he didn't come to find her.
