“Master, you saved the princess, why would the princess…” Tian Yuan was puzzled.
"Why does she need my help?" Guo Daoyi stood up leisurely, staring at Tian Yuan who was packing her luggage. "She went on this journey alone, using herself as bait. Lao Wu has been smart all his life, but he has no idea of this princess's temperament..."
After a pause, Guo Daoyi laughed: "Maybe he doesn't care even if he knows. This man is really crazy. Our master doesn't even know that he has driven his son crazy. It's interesting, really interesting. Come back to Beijing quickly. The show is about to begin. How can I be missing?"
Therefore, Shen Xihe got up early in the morning and learned that Guo Daoyi and his servant were so scared by the snake that they did not dare to stay overnight and set off overnight.
Scared by a snake
Are you calling her a femme fatale
Shen Xihe raised the corner of his lips: "Very good."
The rest of the journey went smoothly. Shen Xihe brought the civet cat to Shangzhou after nine days, and would reach Kyoto in another five days.
The civet cat's injuries healed, and Shen Xihe also collected incense from it three times. On this day, when they passed by the rolling hills and forests, Shen Xihe released it back into the mountains. The little guy was reluctant to leave and looked back every few steps.
"Let's go, you belong to this world."
Shen Xihe only likes to grow flowers and plants, and doesn't like to raise living things because he finds them noisy.
What's more, these things were not born to be domesticated. She knew that the ladies and ladies in Kyoto have liked to keep cats in recent years. In Shen Xihe's eyes, keeping cats in captivity was an act that obliterated their nature.
Shen Xihe didn't expect that when she left Shangzhou, she would meet this little guy again. It traveled for two days and two nights, and seemed to be dependent on Shen Xihe.
Its eyes were round and wet, and it circled around Shen Xihe. Shen Xihe chased it several times, but it caught up again.
The last time, he was injured. One of his feet was cut so deep that the bone was visible.
Even though Shen Xihe was cold-hearted, he was somewhat moved by such a persistent little guy: "You asked for this. If you want to follow me, then follow me."
He brought the civet cat to the outskirts of Beijing and successfully reunited with Mo Yuan and others. Only when Mo Yuan saw Shen Xihe did his soul return to its place.
"Princess, princess, what kind of cat is this?" Hongyu was very curious about this little creature that looked like a fox and a cat, but was covered with leopard fur.
But the little guy is very cold. Apart from Shen Xihe, even Mo Yu would not easily let him get close to him, let alone touch his fur.
Hongyu could only watch helplessly.
"I picked up a stray cat on the road." Shen Xihe glanced at it. "It refused to leave, so I brought it back to keep it as a pet to entertain you."
"Princess, have you given it a name?" Biyu also likes furry little animals.
"Name it?" Shen Xihe had never thought of this, but since it was mentioned, Shen Xihe touched the little guy's neck and said, "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned to the capital?"
"Yes, the Empress Dowager's birthday is not far away. His Majesty ordered the celebration to be held in Furong Garden several months ago. Your Highness the Crown Prince will return to the capital with the Empress Dowager, and His Highness the Crown Prince will be crowned after the Empress Dowager's birthday." Biyu replied.
"Hmm." Shen Xihe responded calmly, her eyes falling on the civet cat that was enjoying her scratching, "Call it a short life."
"Ah?" Hongyu and Biyu exclaimed at the same time.
