Yumoxuan
Leng Qisu opened his arms and let his maid Linglong take care of the Chinese artillery on his body with a lazy expression.
"Your Majesty hasn't been to Youmei Garden for some days, is it Princess?" Linglong squatted down and gently smoothed the wrinkles under his clothes, but hesitated to speak.
"Have you ever seen anyone keep a pet?"
Linglong was startled, straightened up, and looked at him doubtfully. She didn't understand what this had to do with not going to Youmei Garden.
Leng Qisu raised the corners of his lips, walked towards the washstand, rolled up his sleeves, put his hand into the copper basin filled with hot water, and turned around.
"There is a lot of knowledge in raising pets. Don't feed them too much. If they are too full, they will become fat, lazy, and arrogant. But you can't starve them all the time. A hungry ghost cannot withstand the temptation of others. If you give it a little food, it will run away from you, so being hungry and half-full is the way to raise a pet.”
It only took a moment for Linglong to suddenly understand. She couldn't help but curl her lips. She stepped forward and took off the brocade towel hanging on the nanmu shelf of the washstand. She handed it to Leng Qisu with a smile, "What are your plans today, Your Majesty?"
"It has been many days since the princess married into the palace, and she has not yet gone to the palace to greet the Queen Mother. At first, it could be said that Xiaohong was crazy and it was unlucky. Later, there was the reason that the Queen Mother's body was against the rules and could not be disturbed. Now her body has recovered. It’s really unjustifiable if we don’t go again.”

Youmei Court
Mo Shuang stood in the yard, raising his head and squinting at the magpie robin that kept flying over the yard. He didn't know what he was thinking.
The spring sunshine shines through without any obstruction. Although it is very warm, it still hurts people's eyes.
Leng Qisu was really angry and never set foot in Youmei Garden again after that day.
Are you too impatient
"I haven't seen you for a few days. The princess is very good at training birds! She even doesn't need a birdcage!"
She was startled, turned around, and saw Leng Qisu, with a trace of panic in her eyes.
He was dressed in purple cannon and stood far away, looking at her calmly. Under the sun, he was incomparably handsome.
"Your Majesty!" She bowed and saluted.
Leng Qisu raised the corners of his lips, stepped forward, and helped her up. He was as gentle as before, as if nothing had happened. He raised his hand and pointed at the magpie robin hovering in the sky, "Princess, you are not afraid of it." Did you fly away?"
Mo Shuang curved her lips and smiled, looking at his handsome face with watery eyes, and said firmly: "Don't be afraid, because it won't leave."
"Oh?" Leng Qisu raised his eyebrows with interest.
"This is thanks to the story that the prince told me that day. In fact, raising birds is the same as raising dogs. As long as it behaves well, I will give it the most comfortable birdcage and the best bird food. If you still don't know what's good and insist on flying away, then just let it go. You can't escape the hunter's gun outside, and you can't escape the eagle's attack. Who would let go of a good life, said the prince? Yes or no?"
While talking, Mo Shuang looked at Leng Qisu's face carefully.
She wanted to use objects as metaphors to express her determination to this man. In the palace, she was the princess that everyone envied, but outside the palace, she was just a slave that everyone could trample on.
She won't have a second thought about him.
As if he didn't expect her to say such words, Leng Qisu was a little startled, but soon he chuckled again and put his big hands on her shoulders, "I am so pleased that the princess can understand it so well! Get ready. , follow this king into the palace!"
"Enter the palace?" Mo Shuang's face turned pale.
