Besides lying down, I also know a little about power struggles

Chapter 104 Going Home
Fang Tong met Feng Twelve's eyes and wagged his tail happily: "Meow."

Feng Twelve looked at her moist and bright amber pupils and gently rubbed her head: "Are you cold?"

Fang Tong shook her head. No matter how cold the night wind was, it could not defeat the passion rising in her heart.

She personally experienced a palace fight tonight. It was not a fight among concubines, but a more cruel and colder fight for imperial power.

She lay on the roof watching the show from beginning to end, and helped pass signals to the prince outside the Twelve Dynasty Palace.

Feng Twelve had made an agreement with the prince long ago that three cat meows, two long and one short, would serve as a signal. As soon as the prince heard the signal, he would lead his ambush troops and attack the hall.

Others only thought that the person who delivered the message was Feng Twelve's subordinate, but they didn't know that this was a role that Fang Tong had volunteered to fight for himself.

Fang Tong squatted in Feng Twelve's arms, rubbed his palms, and held his head high to seek praise.

Feng Twelve smiled and said, "It's still early, do you want to go to the night market to eat something?"

Fang Tong raised his head, looked at him, then turned to look at the brightly lit hall.

She didn't admire Feng Twelve, she only admired the Crown Prince.

The prince had just forced the emperor to abdicate, and everyone was busy, but the prince just let Feng Twelve go. He was really good-tempered.

If he knew that Feng Twelve was not going back to sleep but going to the night market, he would definitely regret it.

"You've been squatting up there for several hours. Even if you're not cold, you must be hungry." Feng Twelve said.

Fang Tong hesitated.

Why did she feel like a troublemaker? Was there any troublemaker in the world who was as bald as her?
She meowed softly, raised her paw and wrote two words on his palm.

Come back home.

She drew in the air, and fearing that he couldn't see clearly, she wrote very slowly, stroke by stroke.

Feng Twelve lowered his eyes and looked at his empty palm, his eyes darkened a little.

Go home, these two ordinary words, but he rarely hears them.

He was the master of the Prince's Palace, and others always talked about returning home, but no one invited him home.

He looked up at the endless nine-story palace. The faint moonlight fell on the glazed tiles, casting a cold light.

He smiled and said, "Okay, let's go home."

Although they were going home, they still went to the night market on their way back.

Coincidentally, the old couple selling wontons were still there, so Feng Twelve ordered two bowls of chicken wonton soup, and went to a nearby food stall to buy some roasted meat and cooling drinks. Then he returned to the Prince's Palace carrying a bunch of soup.

The guards guarding the mansion had already received the news, and Wei Baichuan and his men were waiting outside the door.

This time, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, familiar faces like him were not allowed to enter the palace and could only stay in the mansion and worry.

Seeing Feng Twelve return safely, Wei Baichuan smiled widely, but he complained: "Your Highness, the guards who entered the palace with you are all back, but you are nowhere to be seen. Can you tell me what you have to do that you cannot let them do?"

Feng Twelve took a few food boxes from behind the saddle and gave them to him: "Here."

Wei Baichuan was stunned: "What is this?"

"Take it and share it."

After saying that, Feng Twelve picked up the last food box and walked through the door.

Wei Baichuan opened the box and took a look. He chuckled twice, handed the food box to his colleague, and followed Feng Twelve: "If Your Highness is hungry, just ask Aunt Zhang to prepare a midnight snack. Why go to the night market in person?"

“The guests love it.”

"Guests?" Wei Baichuan turned his head and looked outside the door: "Your Highness, do you have guests tonight?"

"Well," Feng Twelve paused, "he is my spy."

"Secret agent?" Wei Baichuan was stunned for a while, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, "Could it be the one Xiaonian mentioned?" Feng Twelve nodded: "She has been closely monitoring Feng Wuqiong today. It is only with her help that this matter can be successfully resolved."

"I see." Wei Baichuan suddenly realized, "Before you came back, I asked the guards who entered the palace with you. They said that you arranged someone to pass the message to Feng Wuqiong, but they didn't know who it was. It turned out to be Miss Fang."

"That's right," Feng Twelve said, "Although she is my spy, she is not my subordinate. If you meet her in the future, you should treat her with courtesy."

"Of course." Wei Baichuan said, "I admire capable people the most. The palace is full of dangers today. She is willing to go deep into the danger, which shows her sincerity to Your Highness. If I meet her, I will definitely ask her for advice."

"No need to ask for advice." Feng Twelve raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "She can't beat you."

"There is always someone better than you in boxing and kicking," Wei Baichuan said with a smile, "I am the commander of your highness's guards, but I still can't beat your highness."

"Instead of talking nonsense, why not go get someone to prepare a guest room?" Feng Twelve said, "She will stay here tonight."

"That's easy. I'll go right away."

Wei Baichuan left with a smile. Feng Twelve returned to the backyard alone and entered his room.

He placed the food box on the table and pulled open the bottom layer, revealing a fluffy kitten.

Fang Tong meowed and crawled out from the wooden lattice.

"Go inside and change your clothes." Feng Twelve took out a midnight snack from the lunch box. "Your clothes are all in the closet."

He looked natural, as if he was just asking her to wash her hands.

Fang Tong shook his ears, jumped off the table with light steps, and ran straight to the bedroom in the inner room.

After entering the bedroom, she realized why she was so obedient. Why did she transform just when he told her to?

The aroma of food came from outside. The chicken wontons were still hot, the roasted meat was not cold yet, and the smell of smoke and gravy floated in the air.

Fang Tong wasn't going to endure it anymore.

Just transform, being a human is much more convenient than being a cat.

She looked at the low door curtain. Outside the curtain was a small study, and outside the small study was the dining room.

There was a slight sound of dishes coming from the dining room; it was Feng Twelve placing the chopsticks.

Fang Tong unconsciously tiptoed and walked quietly to the sandalwood cabinet against the wall.

She saw her own reflection in the large bronze mirror next to the cabinet and couldn't help laughing.

Cats make no sound when they walk, so why is she being so careful? She's not a thief.

She closed her eyes and focused her mind on one point——

She felt her mind go blank, and when she opened her eyes again, a familiar figure appeared in the bronze mirror.

This wasn't the first time she had used her own power to transform back into a human, but every time she did, she couldn't help but marvel at how powerful she was!

The sound of dishes being placed outside stopped, and the sound of chairs being pulled out was heard.

Fang Tong quickly stopped reminiscing and opened the cabinet in front of him.

The most eye-catching thing I saw was a set of clothes with pretty colors, obviously belonging to women.

Fang Tong took it out and put it on, then tied the belt in front of the mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, and touched his waist-length hair.

Last time in Linshui County, she turned into a cat in Furong Garden. In order not to attract attention, she dragged all her taken-off clothes and hairpins and hid them in the weeds.

Now that she has lost her hairpin, her long hair hangs loosely behind her head. According to the etiquette here, this is called being untidy and inconvenient to meet guests.

She looked around, trying to find something to tie up her hair, and then she heard Feng Twelve ask outside, "Are you done?"
