Youshu still remembers the first time she was taken to Ganquan Palace. The road was full of flowers and colorful butterflies. There were several red lanterns hanging under the corridor, swaying gently in the wind. Now that only three months have passed, the place has become very deserted and empty, and the rotten petals have fallen on the ground and no one is taking care of them, making the redness everywhere.
You Shu's nose was a little uncomfortable, and under the cover of the old ghost's blindness, he ran a few steps and finally reached the inner hall. Concubine Hui was standing by the window looking into the distance, no more delicate makeup and elegant smile on her face, but a cloud of sorrow. The eighth prince just got out of school, and hurried in and asked, "Mother, they all said that my uncle was demoted to a fifth-rank supervisor, is that true?"
Concubine Hui turned around and slapped her fiercely, "You still have a face? If it wasn't for you, your uncle would not have been sent by the emperor to attack Nanman. The court has attacked Nanman for decades, but has it ever been better than once? The hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in your uncle's hands were all damaged. Before he could return to Beijing to report on his duties, the emperor had issued three decrees to punish the crime, and even went and demoted. . My uncle and I have been planning for more than ten years, but in the end we failed, all because of you, this ineffective thing! If you didn't provoke the Seventh, we could have today?"
"If you had killed Lao Qi early, we wouldn't have today! You're not cruel enough, but blame me!" The eighth prince pushed Concubine Hui away, turned and ran away.
Concubine Hui was so angry that she almost fainted, but she couldn't ignore him, and hurriedly asked the eunuch to chase him. She finally admitted that she did pick the wrong person. If she replaced the eighth with the seventh, where would she fall into such a situation now. Although all the evidence from that year has been wiped clean, as long as the emperor has doubts, he can still rectify you without a trace. The emperor is Dayan's god, he can do whatever he wants, and he can hold anyone he wants.
Now it seems that he no longer intends to hold Ganquan Palace anymore. The demoting of his brother is a signal, and it is his turn next. Concubine Hui was shaky, but fortunately, she was not slumped on the ground by being supported by two palace maids. She didn't pay any attention, a puppy ran by and chased the eighth prince.
With the help of the ghosts in the palace, Youshu easily got the jade pendant of the Eighth Prince and ran to the Cining Palace. The eighth prince not only hated Lao Qi, but also hated Lao Qi's puppy, so he hurriedly put aside the mad chasing of the palace servants. After he caught up, he found a hidden corner to kill the dog, trampled it into mud, and then cut off a dog. Claw, quietly sent to the old seventh palace, but to see how heartbroken he will be.
Driven by the evil thoughts in his heart, he only knew how to chase wildly, but did not notice that he had entered the boundary of the Cining Palace. The palace maid guarding the Buddhist hall was distracted by the noise made by the ghosts, and was worthy of passing him, but because of the blindness, she turned a blind eye.
The queen mother was the successor of the previous emperor. She married into the palace at the age of eighteen, and became a widow at the age of twenty. She wanted to choose a young prince to inherit the throne, so that she could be a puppet for herself and her brother. , the first step to obtain the support of the courtiers. After Emperor Jing ascended the throne, she used the pretense of worshipping Buddha to escape the liquidation of the other party, but she did not accept her fate, and from time to time she had to stir up trouble in front of the harem.
At this moment, she and her brother were chasing the clouds and rain in the Buddhist hall, and did not find a puppy sitting at the door watching. After a while, the puppy turned and left, and when he walked to the edge of the steps, he threw the jade pendant in his mouth. Jade Pei Dingling tumbled for a while, and finally fell into the flowerbed next to her. The puppy immediately ran wild, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Who's outside?" The Queen Mother and her brother stiffened for a moment, then asked sharply.
The court lady who was led away was late, but because of her blindness, she neither saw the puppy nor the eighth prince who was trapped in the back garden by a ghost hitting the wall. She stepped forward quickly and said in a trembling voice, "Qi reported to the Empress Dowager, the slave and maid were just taken away, and they were led away."
The Empress Dowager and Duke Jingguo knew that something was wrong, so they quickly put on their clothes and went out to check, and finally found a jade pendant in the flower garden, with the word "Yong" engraved in official script on it.
"Ji Yongye?" Apart from the Eighth Prince, the Queen Mother couldn't think of anyone else.
But the eighth prince, who had lifted the ghosts to beat the wall, walked to the front of the Buddhist hall just at this moment and bowed his hands in salute.
The Queen Mother squeezed a smile and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Going back to the emperor's grandmother, the dog of the seventh is really abominable. It actually took away the jade pendant of the grandson. The grandson chased him all the way and entered the Cining Palace before he knew it." Then he raised his head and said in surprise, "The grandmother, It is this jade pendant."
The queen mother returned the jade pendant and let him go without asking anything. Lord Yasukuni was still laughing with him one moment, but the next moment he was full of murderous intent, "You believe his nonsense? Puppy, have you seen the puppy come in?"
The palace servants shook their heads in unison, trembling and trembling, "Don't talk about the puppy, I don't even know how the Eighth Highness came in."
The queen mother didn't believe the old man's words, but she would not kill people in her Cining Palace, so she planned to arrange a few nails in Ganquan Palace and slowly poison him to death.
Duke Jing shook his head, "He needs to be dealt with earlier. If he tells Concubine Hui about this, and then tells the emperor, we will be finished."
"Find someone to keep an eye on him. He and Concubine Hui are in a dire situation now. After finally taking such a big handle as Ai's family, they will definitely come to deal with Ai's family. These people in the palace will not waste the slightest chance, they will always try to It is to take the best interests." The queen mother said firmly, "This kind of scandal, but anyone who knows it will not be able to please, how the old eight ends and depends on the emperor's mood, Concubine Hui will definitely be silenced, so they dare not say it, they just want to It has to be arranged, it's better to use other people's mouths. We still have time, no rush. "
After thinking about it, Duke Jinguo also ordered, "You can do it, in short, you can't be held by them. In this world, only the dead can keep their mouths shut."
"Aijia understands." The queen mother stepped forward and rubbed her brother's waistline vaguely.
It was almost dusk when Youshu and the old ghost returned to Guangling Palace. When Xiao Shunzi found that His Highness was asleep, he carried him to the bed and placed him on the bed. Seeing that there was no sign of Shu inside or outside the hall, he was so frightened that he quickly sent someone to look for him. Seeing that His Royal Highness was about to wake up, everyone was so anxious that their heads were sweating. Seeing the puppy jumping out of the grass, it was as if they had seen their own father, and they were so excited that they burst into tears.
"My little ancestor, you're back! Where have you been, and why did you get so dirty?" Xiao Shunzi hurriedly picked him up and ordered, "Hurry up, hurry up and go before His Highness is awake. Boil a pot of hot water to wash it! This master is the lifeblood of His Royal Highness, if you know we almost lost it, everyone in the palace will be whipped!"
Thinking of the maid who was maimed by a whip, everyone immediately split up.
Youshu never let anyone other than the master hold her, but today her body was covered in grass clippings, soil, and flower juice, and it was terribly dirty. He didn't dare to think about that scene, so after struggling a little bit, he accepted it.
After half an hour, You Shu, who was clean and white, was quietly placed by Xiao Shunzi next to His Highness's pillow. The nervous palace servant saw that His Highness was still sleeping soundly, so he let out a sigh of relief, and then filed out. The old ghost floating on the tent flipped his palm and turned into a brown pill, exhorting, "Find a way to get your master to take the antidote, and then massage the acupuncture points on his legs. I'm leaving, Royal Pharmacy. A batch of new herbs has just arrived here, and I have to pick and choose and hide the best ones."
A Shu called twice as an answer.
As soon as the old ghost walked away, the seventh prince woke up on the hind legs, and found himself lying on the bed, his expression immediately tense, and when he saw You Shu squatting on the pillow and looking at him, his expression eased, "I just fell asleep? Who picked me up?"
Little Shunzi. You Shu screamed three times, her fat and short front paws pounded under the pillow for a while, and finally freed up a pill, held it in her mouth and handed it to the master's palm, then raised her face with earnest eyes.
"What is this? Where did you get it?" The seventh prince sat up halfway, and pointed the pill at the setting sun to check it repeatedly.
You Shu pointed her paw to her mouth, meaning to let him eat it quickly. Afraid that he would not understand, she pretended that her hind legs were paralyzed, and flapped her two front paws on the bed. After crawling for a distance, she opened her mouth and stretched out. He had a long neck, made a swallowing motion, and made a very appropriate whimper, and then stood up on his hind legs, jumping and screaming as if ecstatic.
The seventh prince raised his eyebrows, unmoved.
There was Shu walking around him, slapping his arm holding the medicine with his fat and tender front paws, and urging him to swallow it quickly. Seeing that he still didn't understand, he performed the same routine again. Paralyzed, crawling, crawling, taking medicine, suddenly stood up, so happy! You should understand now, right? He ran back to his master, his eyes full of hope.
The little dumpling was crawling, rolling, and jumping, how could the Seventh Prince not understand? He was laughing so hard that he was about to tie a knot, but he pretended to be ignorant, but it was to trick Youshu into performing a few more times. He loved the way he fluttered on his bed, so lively, so full of vigor.
Youshu saw that the master was still motionless, and finally got a little anxious. She crawled along his arm to the front chest, put the pill in his palm in his mouth, and then gently opened his lips with both front paws and force-feeding.
The Seventh Prince didn't turn his head to hide, but he didn't open his teeth, and asked vaguely, "Can this pill cure my legs?"
Some Shu couldn't feed it for a long time, and she was a little frustrated. But he can understand his master, and no one will casually eat anything from a pet into his stomach, especially if it is a pill of unknown origin. He nodded again and again, and there was an anxious low hum from the end of his nose.
"Where did you find it?" the seventh prince asked again.
You Shu couldn't explain it clearly, so he could only pat his master's lips with his fat and short paws, and then pat his cheek again. In the end, he couldn't, so he had to throw the pill into his shirt first, and then licked it on his face, especially his lips. He licked back and forth, inside and out, until he licked the gap between his closed teeth.
Yes, that's it, don't close it again! He yelped a few times, then twisted his hips into his collar, looking for the pills.
For some reason, the seventh prince was licked softly by him, and his pale cheeks also showed an abnormal blush. He felt the two points on his chest being rubbed against him. Authentically, "Don't make trouble if you have Shu, can't I eat it?" Hua Luo took out the pills from the front of his clothes and prepared to put them in his mouth, but stopped at the last moment.
eat quickly? Youshu looked at him eagerly, because the hair on her body exploded unconsciously because she was too eager.
"How can I eat without water?" The seventh prince pinched the tip of his pink nose, and then raised his voice to ask the maids waiting outside the palace to pour water.
Seeing that the water was coming, Shu was afraid that the master would regret it, so he rushed over to grab the pill in his palm and fed it mouth to mouth. The Seventh Prince didn't resist, and while he was holding the pill, he also contained Yushu's little tongue, and then he drank water slowly.
After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, I felt that the medicinal power had melted, and only then did Shu force the spiritual power, the Emperor Ziwei Qi, and the golden light of merit into the claws, and massage the acupoints for the master diligently. When the seventh prince saw him stepping on his leg, he thought he was playing, but unexpectedly, there was a needle-like stinging pain in the place where he was stepped on.
How can you feel it? He was horrified and said in disbelief, "You Shu, what you gave me is really an antidote? Are you massaging my acupoints?"
Youshu nodded again and again, her little tail twisted so happily that her buttocks shook.
The seventh prince held his fat short tail, rubbed his butt again, and said in a very uneasy tone, "You Shu, are you a monster? Did you come to me to repay your kindness?"
Youshu first shook his head, then nodded again, because he was speechless, so he could only bark.
The seventh prince's mind was a little confused, he pondered for a moment and then asked, "You are not a monster, but you are here to repay your kindness, right?" To be honest, knowing that Youshu is not a monster, he felt not relieved, but disappointed. In recent days, he often goes to some fairy tales of repaying his kindness, and then thinks of Youshu.
What would it be like to have Shu become a human? when? He even imagined many scenes, such as a bright moonlit night, a flash of white light, and the fluffy ball that was lying in his arms turned into a person, a naked one with snow-white hair, a beautiful face, and pink skin. people. He was definitely not old, and his dark eyes were filled with tears because of fear, but because of the instinct of intimacy with his master, he kept digging into his arms. I hugged him, comforted him softly, and then kissed his forehead, cheek, lips tightly...
These fantasies have appeared in the Seventh Prince's dream more than once, making him both sweet and guilty. How could he have such fond thoughts about his pets
But if Shu is really a goblin, why not? How can an ordinary puppy be as smart as him? All kinds of questions have been lingering in the seventh prince's heart for a long time, and now he has received a negative answer. Even if his legs are conscious, there is no joy at all.
"You are so smart, how can you not be a monster?" The seventh prince wanted to pick Youshu up, but he scratched his paw, his face darkened in an instant, and he said sadly, "Youshu, don't be on guard against me, even if you know you are You monster, I won't hurt you either. Look, I also took the medicine you brought, which is enough to prove my trust in you, should you repay me with the same trust?"
Youshu nodded helplessly, wondering why the master insisted on admitting that he was a monster. But it's strange, but his fat claws are still pressing and rubbing diligently.
Seeing the puppy nodding, the seventh prince's eyes flashed a bright light, and he said in a trembling voice, "You admit it? Are you really a monster? Can you become a human?" Instead, his legs that felt inch by inch were thrown into his head. back.
With three questions in a row, Youshu didn't know which one to answer, and his meaningless barking couldn't explain his current situation at all, so he could only choose to nod his head.
The Seventh Prince, who felt that he was about to fall into the abyss, flew into the sky in an instant. No matter how mature and prudent, he is only a thirteen-year-old half-year-old, and it is almost impossible to restrain his ecstasy. His Shushu is a goblin who can become a human and can stay by his side forever. No one knows, when Xiao Shunzi learned from Xiao Shunzi's mouth that his life expectancy is only ten years at most, how his spine was bent by the overwhelming despair. He even thought that he was poisoned and would not be able to live for a long time. It was a kind of luck. In this way, he can grow up together with Shu, die together, and die together.
But now, he wants to live and live well, because You Shu is likely to live for a long, long time.
"When will you become a human?" Barely suppressing the ecstasy and anxiety in his heart, he asked in a hoarse voice.
You Shu barked while massaging, saying that she didn't know. He also wants to recover his body, but not now, at least after the master's legs are fully recovered.
The Seventh Prince automatically filled in the words, "That's right, you are still young, and you are shallow in your conduct. Maybe it will take another two or three years. You Shu, what do you look like when you become a human? You are a fairy, and you must be beautiful. Bar?"
Youshu was extremely confident in her IQ and appearance, and quickly nodded her head.
The seventh prince laughed lowly, with layers of blush on his face. When he was thirteen years old, the gift that surprised him the most was You Shu, and the moment that made him happiest was now. When You Shu finished rubbing his legs and lay down on the mattress with his belly turned over, he immediately picked him up and kissed him on his lips. The kiss this time was light and soft, revealing a fervent desire and agitation.
He casually touched the legs that felt a little bit, and put You Shu in the front of his shirt, then propped up his upper body, moved with difficulty into the wheelchair next to him, and slowly turned the wheel and walked towards the desk. He grinded the ink, spread out the rice paper, lifted the sheep's hair, and said in deep thought, "You Shu, after you become a human, will your hair be black or white?"
Guessing that the master was going to paint a portrait of himself, You Shu hurriedly got out of his shirt, climbed along his arm to the table, and tapped the thick black inkstone with his fat and short claws.
"Is your hair black?" The Seventh Prince was obviously a little surprised. He thought that Youshu's hair was the same color as his coat, both pure white. But black is better and less noticeable.
"Do you have a round face or a pointed face?" he asked again, and before Shu could answer, he smiled first, "How can you have a pointed face with such a round face, it must be round, with a Some tender, soft meat."
Youshu nodded frantically, trying to give his master a thumbs up, but it turned out to be a fat paw. But the Seventh Prince understood what he understood, and he laughed more and more deeply, and continued, "Is your nose high or not? Is your mouth big or small? Are your eyebrows sword-brow or curved? Are your eyes round or Danfeng?"
You Shu opened his mouth to bark, and then snorted in frustration.
The seventh prince rubbed his head and said in a very indulgent tone, "Understood, my aunt must have a tall, dangling nose; the mouth is not big or small, beautiful in shape, and the color of the lips is a light pink, like the blooming flowers in March. Peach blossom; eyebrows..." He deliberately lengthened his tone and smiled under Youshu's gaze, "The eyebrows can't be sword eyebrows, because they are too heroic and very different from your appearance, they should be light and tangible, with a slight curvature. Liu Mei. The eyes are round, the eyeballs are black and white, and the ends of the eyes are slightly upturned, very smart and energetic."
all hit! It's really heartfelt! You Shu was so surprised, she dipped a little ink on her paws, drew two hearts on the rice paper, and added two pairs of wings.
The seventh prince, Ying Wu, looked at it for a while and then pondered, "I have no phoenix and wings, but I have a good understanding of the heart. Does that mean that? My family has Shu really brilliant!"
This is called literacy? Youshu couldn't help covering her face with her claws, expressing her shame, but she printed a few jet-black plum blossoms on the snow-white fluff, which made the seventh prince laugh. After laughing, he thought about it for a while, and then picked up the pen to draw slowly, first the outline, then the costume, and then the facial features. The outline and costume only took a quarter of an hour to complete, but the facial features took a lot of thought. One must have thought about it for a long time.
After more than half an hour, he put down his pen and stared at the painting, and a look of surprise quickly slid across his dark pupils. He knew for a long time that Youshu was so cute even as a puppy, and she would definitely be unparalleled in beauty when she became a human being. However, when he actually saw what he looked like, he was far more moved than he imagined.
He stood a little further away, looked at the painting, and then at the puppy circling around the painting, with a scorching heat in his eyes. When the restlessness in his heart subsided, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Is this painting similar to your human figure?"
Youshu nodded, shook her head again, wiped the ink from her paws a little, and added two faint dots on both sides of her cheeks.
The seventh prince's eyes lit up and he said with joy, "This is a pear vortex? You still have two small pear vortexes?"
Just based on speculation, the master was able to describe his own appearance in an inseparable manner, and it was very charming, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. Some Shu Wangwang called out twice and had to express admiration.
The seventh prince hugged the puppy, looked left and right on his face, and said with a low smile, "My family Youshu is indeed the cutest fairy in the world, and she even has a pair of small pear vortexes. When you become a human in the future, I'll have to poke it." And of course, have a taste.
Poking the pear vortex has always been the habit of the master, and it will not change for a few lifetimes. Youshu has long been used to it, so he licked his face violently, and stretched out his dog's paw to poke the master's cheek in revenge. The seventh prince held his pink paws and laughed loudly.
From this day on, a portrait has been hung in the palace of His Highness the Seventh Highness, and no one is allowed to touch it except the eunuch who is swept away. It was also from this day that he became more and more cheerful and energetic, which greatly comforted Emperor Jing.
