Self-cultivation after the cannon fodder

Chapter 70 Part 1

"I seem to have a voice...do you hear it?"

"Yes, I heard it. It seems to be a wild cat. I saw it nearby before. It's quite cute, but it's a bit skinny."

Passing palace people approached the grass.

"It just so happens that I have some leftover meat here, let it eat."

"Meow-"

The wild cat let out a cry, the fur on its back stood on end, and squinted its eyes at Zhu Sining.

A man and a beast confront each other in the grass.

Zhu Sining didn't dare to move, fearing that the wild cat would pounce and whimper and be finished if he was hungry.

As the footsteps of the palace people got closer, Zhu Sining became more and more nervous.

"Meow, come over to eat, there are delicious food here."

The palace man shouted softly, and there was a faint smell of meat.

"Meow." The wild cat sharpened its paws at Zhu Sining.

"Here!" The palace man put down the piece of meat excitedly, "Meow, come here, look over here."

Zhu Sining retreated step by step, taking advantage of the wild cat's distraction, he rushed into the grass.

"Meow!"

The wild cat screamed and chased Zhu Sining for a few steps, but still couldn't resist the meat delivered to him, so he gave up on Zhu Sining.

Not to mention walking the palace road, Zhu Sining didn't even know which direction to go to get out of the grass, so he turned around aimlessly and returned to the original point.

The palace servants who were feeding had already left.

The wild cat licked a few pieces of meat and stared at Zhu Sining with burning eyes.

"Are... are you full? I, I'll borrow a way, and say... ah ah ah..."

"Meow -" the wild cat chased after him.

I wish Si Ning didn't have to choose a direction, as long as he could outrun the wild cats now.

"Cat! Be careful!"

A group of palace people walked by, startled by a wild cat that suddenly jumped out.

"Where is it! Oh, sister, you stepped on me!"

Zhu Si Ning was small and ran fast, the palace people didn't notice him, but the wild cat got caught, kicked all the way and disturbed many palace people, disrupted their rhythm, and was even scolded.

I don't know how long it took, but Zhu Sining couldn't run anymore: "No, is it... let's discuss it, brother cat, don't chase after me, let me go, can I bring you food later?"

"Meow?" Wildcat tilted his head.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Zhu Sining took a few breaths and looked at the surrounding scenery. After running for so long, he still hadn't reached the front court, "Why don't we cooperate?"

"You...you are good..."

Zhu Sining stretched out his hand and carefully touched the wild cat's furry front legs.

"Meow."

The wild cat looked down at Zhu Sining.

"It's too high, I can't touch it." Zhu Sining touched his legs twice to comfort him, "You just make it up."

"Ow—" the wild cat opened its mouth, revealing its cold white fangs and pink tongue.

"Cat... Brother Cat..."

Zhu Sining slightly bent his legs to get into the starting position, and took a deep breath.

Be prepared to run if something goes wrong.

The wild cat bent its front legs, lowered its front body to the ground, pouted its rear body, stretched its waist, and slowly closed its mouth.

Zhu Sining: "..." Are all cats yawning this enchanting?

"Brother Cat, can I give you a ride?"

The wild cat lowered its eyes halfway, and glanced at him lazily.

Does this mean agreeing?

Zhu Sining tried to touch the wild cat's side: "Then I'll do it."

Still able to ride and shoot, Zhu Sining scratched the wild cat's neck: "Let's go to the meeting hall!"

Zhu Sining only knows how to walk the palace road. The wild cats are somewhat afraid of crowded places, and try to go as far as they can. Sometimes Zhu Sining can hardly sit still, and there are many situations along the way, which once again disturb the rhythm of many palace people.

"Shhh, now that you're here, you have to be quiet and stop rushing around."

That is to say, now that Concubine Xu Shu has sealed off the harem and is looking for Zhu Sining everywhere, they have a chance. When they arrive at the front court, it is within the scope of Zong Qihao. Foreign ministers come and go, and they are required to be serious, and the guards are always on guard.

The wild cat meowed softly, and approached the meeting hall with a low body.

On the tall and white jade steps, spiritually promoted guards stand with guns and look forward. If there is any abnormality, they will quickly find it.

"No, you can't go up, you will definitely be beaten." Zhu Sining touched the cat's neck.

"Meow?" the wild cat muttered.

"Don't make a sound!"

It was too late, the guards were more sensitive than the palace guards, and soon noticed the wild cats: "Where are the wild cats, go fast!"

There will be other courtiers coming to the meeting in a while. If they can't figure out which one is afraid of cats or allergic, then they will be in trouble.

Zhu Sining jumped to the ground: "You hide first, and I will go find you later, and I will definitely give you meat to eat, be good."

"Meow!"

The wild cat screamed, suddenly picked up Zhu Sining, jumped onto the railing of the white jade steps, and rushed into the hall.

"stop!"

Several guards strode up the stairs to intercept: "Stop it!"

The wild cat jumped nimbly, walking on the railing for a while, jumping off to avoid the guards for a while, and getting closer and closer to the gate.

"What's going on?" The palace servants in the palace came out, "You... ah, wild cats!"

"Meow--"

The wild cat entered the palace smoothly while the palace people and guards were in a mess.

"what happened?"

There was no need for Jiang Wei to speak, Zong Qihao said first: "What are you doing around... cats?"

The wild cat jumped onto the desk, arched its body and approached Zong Qihao slowly.

"His Majesty!"

Jiang Wei and several palace officials turned pale and screamed.

Zong Qihao squinted his eyes and noticed that the wild cat still had something in its mouth.

Zong Qihao: "Go out."

Jiang Wei: "What?"

"I told you to go out."

The door of the palace closed, Zong Qihao stretched out his hand, and took Zhu Sining from the wild cat's mouth.

Zhu Sining was so shaken that he didn't know when he stopped, "Brother Cat, it's so dangerous..."

The voice was not loud, but Zong Qihao heard clearly: "Brother Cat?"

He glanced at the wild cat.

"Meow!" The wild cat meat pad patted the table.

"It's considered meritorious."

Zong Qihao smiled, seeing that Zhu Sining would not be able to calm down for a while, he found a small cup to pour some water, and put it in front of Zhu Sining.

"Ah Ning, drink some water."

Zhu Sining tried to lift the water glass.

I can't move... I can't move it.

After a pause, Zhu Sining just buried his head in and drank.

Zong Qihao: "..."

"Meow." The wild cat rolled its eyes indiscriminately, and stretched out its tongue to lick its paw.

"Why is Ah Ning getting smaller?" Zong Qihao asked, "Did he eat something strange?"

He already had a faint guess in his heart.

"Yeah." Zhu Sining nodded lazily, and roughly explained the matter, "I thought that medicine was some kind of magic medicine, how could I know it was so tricky, and now I don't know when I will be able to recover, Concubine Xu Shu sent people to look for me everywhere .”

"This is troublesome." Zong Qihao took the opportunity to touch Zhu Sining's upturned hair, "I have to think of a suitable reason."

Returning to Qin-Wangfu is not an appropriate reason, Zhu Sining has simple interpersonal relationships in Beijing, and there is no other place to go.

Zhu Sining: "Just say that I am here with His Majesty."

"Okay." Zong Qihao's eyes were full of smiles, and when Zhu Sining encountered a situation, he immediately thought of looking for him, which made him very satisfied.

"I'm still busy, Ah Ning may have to wait."

The courtiers who were coming to the meeting are estimated to have entered the palace gate by now.

Zong Qihao reopened the palace door and asked the palace servants to take away the wild cats, clean them up and feed them, fulfilling Zhu Sining's promise.

Wiping away the ashes from Zhu Sining's face, Zong Qihao said: "Jiang Wei may come up next to me to add water and grind ink, and it may be better for Ah Ning to stay in my pocket."

"I can help you, let Jiang Wei stay below."

He deliberately found a few high books, and gestured between Zhu Sining's head and the books. After making sure that Zhu Sining would not be seen from below, Zong Qihao asked Jiang Wei to summon other courtiers.

Although Zhu Sining's clothes were not tattered, they were not much better after being scratched all the way. What's more, he suddenly changed during his afternoon nap. Lots of marl seeds.

"Take it off first, I don't want this clothes anymore." Zhu Sining took off his coat, thought for a while, and then took off his shoes. He couldn't get Zong Qihao's table dirty, everything on it is very important .

Clothes and shoes were placed on the table, and returned to their original size after a few breaths.

The courtiers who were going to attend the meeting had already entered the palace under the guidance of the palace servants, and happened to bump into Zong Qihao, carrying his clothes and shoes down the golden steps and looking around.

His Majesty is fully dressed, this is obviously not his.

"Jiang Wei, put these away first." Zong Qihao didn't change his face, as if nothing happened, paused, and then said, "No, let's send it back to Jiaofang Hall first, and tell Concubine Xu Shu and the others that the queen is here. ..."

He glanced back at Zhu Sining, but still didn't say the specific time: "I'll be back in a while."

Oh Queen.

A courtier couldn't help but look up at the upper seat, and regretfully saw that there was only one empty chair above.

"Let's get started, get the results as soon as possible and go home early." Zong Qihao didn't bother to find out what the people below thought. Compared to this, he wanted to see how Zhu Sining would help him.

Zong Qihao wanted to pick up a brush, Zhu Sining quickly moved a brush and put it in his hand.

"Not bad." Zong Qihao smiled and nodded Zhu Sining's head.

The courtiers at the bottom were encouraged and talked even more.

The inkstone bottomed out, Zhu Sining moved water and added it, picked up the pine smoke ink, and glanced at Zong Qihao.

He was concentrating on the memorial in the hands of the courtier below, and had no time to pay attention to his movements.

Zhu Sining took a deep breath, pushed the pine smoke ink into the edge of the inkstone with more strength, and pushed the ink out along the edge.

Zong Qihao's pine smoke ink block has been used for a while, but it is still very heavy and heavy.Zhu Sining pushed for a long time, panting from exhaustion, saw a wolf cub next to him, moved it upside down and pushed the ink with the pen holder.

A courtier at the bottom accidentally raised his head, and saw a pen tip moving in circles.

"Hey, you, take a look..." He tugged at his colleague's sleeve, "Is it my eyesight? There is a writing brush moving on Your Majesty's desk."

The colleague's tone was weak: "I may also be dazzled."

Several courtiers made a little commotion, and found that Jiang Wei was uncharacteristically not following Zong Qihao.

"Eunuch Jiang——"

This sound was a little loud because of excitement, not only Jiang Wei heard it, but Zong Qihao who was seated also heard it.

But he only thought they wanted to drink water, without raising his eyes, he said: "Jiang Wei, add a pot of hot tea for the adults."

Zong Qihao has always treated his courtiers generously, he can have some hot porridge and soy milk to warm his stomach before going to court in the morning, and he never stops drinking tea and snacks on weekdays.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Pen!" Jiang Wei also noticed the tip of his pen moving on the table under the gesture of several courtiers.

Zong Qihao raised his head during the memorial, and finally noticed the tip of the pen protruding from the book, and Zhu Sining who was pushing hard.

"..."

"The wind was a bit strong, so the pen shook." Zong Qihao found an excuse to fool him, and took out the pen in Zhu Sining's hand, and grabbed the culprit by the way and put it in his pocket, "Jiang Wei, come up and grind the ink."

Zhu Sining was still a little dizzy, not knowing what happened.

With Jiang Wei around, Zong Qihao couldn't speak directly, so he put one hand into his pocket and scratched Zhu Sining's chin to tease him.

Even if Zhu Sining didn't get smaller, Zong Qihao's one hand was enough for Zhu Sining to be busy, but now that he's getting smaller, Zong Qihao's whole body is held by Zong Qihao, and he puts it in his pocket after being teased a few times. Moved.

The courtiers below looked at Zong Qihao, and felt that Zong Qihao was becoming more and more unpredictable.

This kind of silence with downcast eyes and a smile is the scariest thing. It makes them reflect on whether they have said the wrong thing or made some stupid mistake.

I couldn't help but shiver.

"Your Majesty, the rewards given by the King of Qin after his return are related to the stability of the country," a courtier boldly said, "Now the King of Qin is unsealable, and he is the empress' father..."

It's about yourself.

Zhu Sining immediately pushed Zong Qihao's hand away, leaned on the edge of the pocket and stood on tiptoe, trying to see what the speaker looked like.

Zong Qihao pressed him down just after he emerged.

Zhu Sining whispered, "I can't hear you clearly in my pocket."

"..." Zong Qihao looked at the courtier who was speaking below, "Speak louder, I can't hear you clearly. "

The subject felt uneasy: "..." Does this mean that he is satisfied or dissatisfied with his reward proposal to the King of Qin?

Zhu Sining didn't hear the voice for a long time, and was very confused: "Why didn't he talk?"

Zong Qihao: "..." I was frightened by him.

Can't explain yet.

Zong Qihao: "Don't be shy, speak freely, Qin King's reward is indeed very important. Although this battle is a big victory, but the frontiers still need to be guarded by Qin King, so you can't be sloppy at all."

Zhu Sining added in a low voice: "I don't mind this at all, I just do what I want... If there is something extra, can I ask for a wedding for my brother? I have made a lot of money and I want to give some things to him. he."

Zong Qihao: "You don't need to worry about that."

If Zhu Xiuyong is willing to get married, he won't have the energy to worry about his affairs with Zhu Sining. He will definitely send a lot of things to thank the bride.

The subject still has concerns: "Queen... Hey, I seem to be too late."

Zong Qihao: "..."

Today was probably the day he had the most speechless moments.
