Chapter 1097 A Wise Monarch and Her Invincible Dog
To prevent her from being hurt by her own family while traveling with His Highness.
Her injury is a minor matter; if His Highness were to be injured, the Jiang family would be doomed.
Minglang chatted with Jiang Jiaoyun for a while, then saw that Li Xianqing was seeing someone off and wasn't coming back himself.
"She must be tired of drinking. But then again, in that rural area, even if she wanted to drown her sorrows in alcohol, there was no one to drink with her."
After saying goodbye to Jiang Jiaoyun, Minglang returned to his room, washed up, and quickly fell asleep.
Jiang Jiaoyun wasn't in a hurry to go back to her room.
I first went to Li Xianqing and Xue Wan's room and saw that they were both lying down.
Only then did he feel relieved enough to go back and induce vomiting.
While vomiting, he couldn't help but curse:
"Have these two been secretly meeting up several times in the past year? Why is their alcohol tolerance increasing instead of decreasing?"
After vomiting, Jiang Jiaoyun felt a little better.
After washing up, I lay in bed, imagining the days when I would travel with His Highness.
As a result, I fell asleep while lying down.
Liang Chongyue didn't have to wait for the kitten for long, not even for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Liang Chongyue was on a call with the system.
The kitten arrived.
The system disabled the kitten's permissions, and it just stood there like a ghost, spying on it.
Liang Chongyue was speechless at the system.
She could have communicated with the kitten, but the system suddenly cut off their communication. Isn't that just burying her head in the sand?
"Hurry up and turn on the connection, or I'll slap you."
The kitten meowed twice at His Majesty, and when it didn't hear a response, it knew that the stinky dog was behind it.
Once the connection was established, the kitten found a secluded corner to hide in.
They were just waiting for Xiang Yu to come to them.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late, I'll take the children to bed now."
Since His Majesty promised to give the children gifts, there couldn't be any fakes, so Xiang Zheng wasn't in a hurry.
She can ask for it again tomorrow with the children, and His Majesty will surely grant it.
"Very well, I see that Xiang Yu is also sleepy, so let him go to sleep first."
Xiang Zheng called out to the two children, and Xiang Sheng led Xiang Yuyu out of the inner hall.
"How about we sleep in the palace tonight?"
Xiang Sheng understood everything; she naturally knew that entering the palace so late meant she would definitely be spending the night there.
Before she had a younger brother, she was always asked to stay overnight whenever she came to the palace.
She's used to it.
Xiang Yu wasn't shy at all, and nodded in agreement while yawning.
There were still tears squeezed out from the corners of her eyes.
"Alright, then Mother will take you to the washroom to wash up first."
When Xiang Yu looked in his direction, the kitten seized the opportunity and made eye contact with him.
Liang Chongyue sent Yunling to help Xiang Zheng, while she dismissed all the palace servants serving in the Yangxin Hall.
The kitten jumped out from the shadows and stood in Liang Chongyue's arms.
Her eyes shone like gold, captivating all who looked into them.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready and we can begin at any time."
Liang Chongyue nodded, and the screen no longer focused solely on the system.
Instead, the scene switched to what the kitten saw through Xiang Yu's eyes.
Seeing Xiang Zheng helping the two children wash up, Liang Chongyue decided not to rush and to wait until the two children were in bed.
Liang Chongyue didn't have to wait long; the child washed up quickly.
After lying down in bed, Xiang Zheng began to tell stories to the children.
I don't know why, maybe it's because His Majesty mentioned Xiang Yu's fear of dogs too many times today.
Xiang Zheng, as if possessed, told Xiang Yu a story about a puppy.
"Long, long ago, there lived a very wise ruler who, along with her little dog, was invincible and won countless battles..."
This gave the kitten an opportunity.
Sensing Xiang Yu's fear, the kitten's pupils flickered.
Xiang Yu slowly raised his hand and took Xiang Zheng's hand.
"I've heard this story before."
Xiang Zheng looked at her son in surprise. For Xiang Yu, the word "puppy" was taboo.
Few people dared to mention those two words to Xiang Yu.
"Yu'er, tell your mother, where did you hear this story?"
Xiang Yu remained silent for a while, as if he was thinking.
After a while, he slowly began to speak:
“When I was very young, even younger than I am now, an older brother told me this story. He also had a very, very big dog, several times bigger than me, and he sat on my bed telling me the story.”
At first, Xiang Zheng thought Xiang Yu was telling a story.
But the more I listened, the more something felt off.
"That older brother said that the monarch's dog became so powerful because it ate children, and it even ate the little boys here. So the monarch suffered retribution and could only have one daughter in this life, and could not have a son."
Xiang Yu's words made Xiang Zheng break out in a cold sweat.
She quickly covered Xiang Yu's mouth with her hand. This was the imperial palace, and there were likely guards on duty everywhere.
These bodyguards have amazing hearing.
Xiang Zheng put her right index finger to her lips and lowered her voice to say to her son:
“My dear son, I’m not counting on you anymore. Don’t ruin your sister’s career.”
Upon hearing this on the control panel, Liang Chongyue chuckled helplessly.
The kitten nestled in His Majesty's lap, listening to the intoxicating laughter, feeling itself about to succumb.
"No, it really was that older brother who said it. That older brother even had his dog bite me, biting me through my clothes. It hurt so much."
"Ayu, how old were you when you heard this story?"
Xiang Yu scratched his head and looked at his sister.
"I don't remember, I just remember that I wanted to chase the dog away, but I couldn't move, it was like I was tied to the bed."
At this point, Xiang Yu turned to look at his mother.
"Mother, didn't you say I was your precious baby? Then why are you tying me to the bed?"
Xiang Sheng had already remembered when that happened.
"Sister, were you ever tied to the bed by your mother when you were little?"
Xiang Sheng immediately covered Xiang Yu's mouth with his hand.
Xiang Yu, who was being controlled by the kitten, didn't make a fuss; that was exactly the effect the kitten wanted.
Constantly controlling people to speak consumes a lot of its skills.
Occasional use is acceptable, but continuous use would be...
It will likely become exhausted and then fall into a deep sleep for a long time.
“Good boy, Yu’er. We won’t listen to this story anymore. Mother will tell you a different story.”
Liang Chongyue gently patted the kitten's head, signaling that she could stop using her charm.
Is that all?
Liang Chongyue looked down and met the kitten's beautiful golden eyes.
Smiling and nodding.
"That's enough. When it comes to children, no one is more vigilant than a mother."
Liang Chongyue had read the whole story. If she told it all to Xiang Zheng, Xiang Zheng could learn more about those people tonight.
