Raising a Dog is Better than Palace Fight Chapter 3
Chapter 3: Appearance
Emperor Wu of Zhou slept very deeply last night, until Bishui approached his willow basket and was about to reach out to pull his little quilt before barely waking up.
Seeing that Ah Bao woke up, Bi Shui immediately picked him up, wiped his face, mouth and paws with a handkerchief dipped in hot water, and carried him into the bedroom. No one knows better than Bi Shui how much Empress Defei likes small animals, so she expected that Defei would be very happy to see Abao early in the morning.
Emperor Wu of Zhou struggled in Bishui's hand, he wanted to scold him twice, but his little milk dog could only whimper sweetly, so he opened his mouth and closed it immediately, feeling ashamed in his heart.
As soon as you enter the palace, you will be greeted by the fresh and elegant fragrance of green grass, which is invigorating. It is not at all sticky like sandalwood in other palaces, nor heavy like ambergris in Qianqing Palace. Attached to the dog's body, Emperor Wu of Zhou, whose sense of smell was more sensitive than before, struggled slightly, and looked up at Concubine De, who was dressing in front of the glazed mirror.
The woman sat sideways, and the snow-white clothes wrapped in crimson turned into light white and deep and light gray in the eyes of Emperor Wu of Zhou. The feeling, especially the ankle-length black hair, flowing down like a waterfall, emitting a faint fluorescent light, is shockingly beautiful.
After going through more than a dozen gloomy and anxious days and nights, this extremely ordinary picture scroll of getting up in the morning is the most colorful and touching to the soul in the eyes of Emperor Wu of Zhou. At this moment, he seemed to be the original wise and mighty Emperor Wu of Zhou, waiting for his concubine to help him change his clothes and freshen up.
However, he soon woke up from this illusion, because the woman in front of the glazed mirror had reached out to hug him, lowered her head and dropped a kiss on his eyelids, her soft lips slid past like butterfly wings, numb and itchy, and still... With a unique fragrance.
This is the kiss an owner gives to a pet, not a woman to a man. For a moment, Emperor Wu of Zhou was indescribably desperate, and then angry because of the weakness he showed at this moment. He began to struggle violently.
"Oh, don't move around, be careful of falling!" Meng Sangyu was scratched on the back of his hand, and quickly bent down to put Abao down, lest he hurt himself.
"Ma'am, are you okay?" Yin Cui and Bi Shui asked in unison.
Nanny Feng stepped forward angrily, stretching out her legs to kick A Bao over.
"No, ma'am! I'm fine!" Seeing this, Meng Sangyu hurriedly stopped her, raising the back of her hand to indicate that she was not injured.
There was a red mark on the porcelain white and delicate skin, but there was no bleeding, even this made Nanny Feng very distressed. She took out a can of snow skin cream and dabbed it on Meng Sangyu carefully, her deep voice was still full of anger, "This little beast is unruly and unruly, it is indeed a fan dog! Madam, you should send him back to the cat and dog shop, we will go to the cat and dog house again." Pick a docile Shih Tzu and bring it back.”
No one noticed, Ah Bao, who was squatting quietly in the corner, razed Nanny Feng with a knife-like gaze after hearing this. But this sharp line of sight was blocked by his thick hair, coupled with his petite and lovely body, it was not lethal, and did not attract the attention of everyone in the hall.
His body was stiff, and he turned his head to look at Concubine De, waiting for her sentence. He made a mistake, since he had already decided to temporarily attach himself to Concubine De, he had to make necessary compromises and concessions. Now he is no longer a high-ranking emperor, but a pet. A pet has to be docile and know how to please its master.
Thinking that these women used to do everything possible to please him, Emperor Wu of Zhou felt a sense of desolation that Feng Shui took turns.
"Keeping pets depends on fate. I fell in love with Abao the first time I saw him, so I won't change!" Concubine De shook her head resolutely, and added, "Abao is still young, so it's inevitable to be afraid of others. When we get along for a long time Once you get it, you will be intimate. A dog is the most loyal animal in the world, as long as you treat him with sincerity, he will also treat you with sincerity, which is much better than most people!"
Emperor Wu of Zhou relaxed his tense heartstrings when he heard the words, and looked at Concubine De's tender face with complicated eyes. He didn't expect that Defei, who is cruel and harsh to people, would be so open-minded and magnanimous towards animals. But he knew that Concubine De didn't need to put on a show when facing a dog, so this was her true thought. He was extremely touched in his heart, and had to accept that what Concubine De said made sense. The human heart is the most unpredictable and sinister thing in the world. Perhaps because she sees too clearly, she can only relax completely in front of simple animals. Why not?
Thinking of this, Emperor Wu of Zhou looked at Concubine De with pity in his eyes. This woman is not as unbearable as he imagined, there are still merits.
Seeing A Bao hiding in the corner and staring at him blankly, Meng Sangyu felt pitiful, and while ordering the maid to serve breakfast, he waved to A Bao, "Come here, A Bao, breakfast is ready."
This body has only been born not long ago, so it cannot withstand hunger. Emperor Wu of Zhou was moved, he walked up to Concubine De, and looked up at her. Meng Sangyu picked him up, put him on the dining table, looked at Nanny Feng while stroking his back, and said with a smile, "Look, Mommy, my Ah Bao is actually very cute."
Seeing that the master really liked it, Nanny Feng's resentment subsided no matter how big she was, and she echoed lovingly.
Ah Bao squatted on the dining table with two short legs, while being intoxicated by De Fei's caress, he secretly warned himself not to be seriously domesticated by this woman into a worthless pet. (You got the truth, this is your future destiny)
The breakfast was served quickly, and Emperor Wu of Zhou could smell the aroma of minced meat porridge from a long distance away. He twitched his nose, and quickly secreted transparent saliva from his mouth, dripping on the table. This is the instinct of animals, and even the wise and mighty Emperor Wu of Zhou couldn't control it.
"Puchi!" Concubine De covered her mouth and chuckled, beckoning to the palace people, "Hurry up, Ah Bao is hungry!"
Closing his mouth tightly, gulping down the excess saliva, Emperor Wu of Zhou's cheeks burned red, wishing he could dig a hole with his claws and get in. Fortunately, his hair is so thick that Concubine De didn't notice the abnormality.
"Your Majesty, let Ah Bao eat under the table, otherwise it will spoil your appetite if you make the table dirty." Yin Cui suggested softly with the minced meat porridge.
"It's okay, I like Abao to eat with me." Concubine De waved her hand, took the porridge bowl in front of Abao, and said warmly, "Eat."
Let a dog eat at the table? Emperor Wu of Zhou looked at her in surprise, feeling a little moved in his heart. But at the moment of delicious food, he can't allow him to think too much, and the animal's instinct prompts him to lick his mouth immediately.
Seeing that he was eating well, Meng Sangyu picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat. She suffers from hypoglycemia and usually has no appetite in the morning, but because of Ah Bao's company, she managed to finish a bowl of shredded chicken porridge and a small plate of pastries, which made Madam Feng beam with joy.
Wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, Meng Sangyu propped his cheeks, admiring Abao's eating with a smile in his eyes. The one-month-old puppy is not as big as the mouth of a bowl, and now half of its body is almost buried in it, looking very happy. He licked mouthfuls one after another, at a leisurely and elegant pace.
Meng Sangyu raised her eyebrows and said to Yin Cui, "Look, my Po won't dirty the dining table. This gesture is more elegant than the Lion King!"
Lion King, what is it? Emperor Wu of Zhou was confused, but he was also very satisfied that Concubine De was comparing himself with a king.
Yincui smiled and agreed, seeing that the time was almost up, she helped Meng Sangyu get dressed and was going to pay her respects to Concubine Li's Fengluan Palace.
She took off her spacious and comfortable outer robe, put on a graceful and luxurious court dress, and put on a Liuyun bun, and inserted a dazzling Huasheng Buyao, and finally used a sharpened charcoal pencil to thicken and pull down the corners of her eyes. Covering up its inadvertently flirtatious demeanor, the usually stern and imposing Concubine De appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing the woman whose temperament changed drastically, Emperor Wu of Zhou who raised his head from the bowl was stunned. He didn't understand that a woman could become so completely different just by changing her clothes and putting on some makeup. He somewhat misses the casual and natural Concubine De just now.
Meng Sangyu walked to the dining table, stroked Abao's little head, and gently told her, "Abao stay in the palace obediently, don't run around, I'll be back soon after I go out."
Go to Fengluan Palace? Emperor Wu of Zhou was not interested. He planned to sneak into Qianqing Palace to have a look after Concubine De left. Bixiao Palace is very close to Qianqing Palace, and it doesn't take a cup of tea to walk. From this point of view, being with Concubine De might not be a bad thing.
But De Fei's next words quickly shattered his wishful thinking.
Meng Sangyu looked at the several court ladies waiting at the table, and said cautiously, "Look carefully at Abao, and don't let him run out of Bixiao Palace. He is still young, so it is easy for people to ignore him on the road and get trampled on him."
The court ladies responded in unison, which made Emperor Wu of Zhou a little annoyed.
As if feeling Abao's depression, Meng Sangyu picked him up, kissed his wet little nose, and said with a smile, "When Abao grows up, I will take Abao to the Imperial Garden for a walk. The Imperial Garden is very beautiful and open. There are so many interesting places, Bao will definitely like it.”
What's with this pampering attitude? It's not like treating an animal, but more like treating a child. But it cannot be denied that, as the most direct beneficiary, Emperor Wu of Zhou was still moved for a moment.
"Okay, get to work! Bring your glamorous and noble looks to me!" Meng Sangyu carefully handed Abao to a court lady, then solemnly clapped her hands and ordered.
"Yes!" The palace people behind her first covered their mouths and chuckled, then straightened their backs and raised their chins, showing a faint tendency to look at people with their nostrils, their sharp eyes were full of arrogance and contempt, domineering The feeling is overwhelming.
Emperor Wu of Zhou was stunned, and lay down in the arms of the maid, watching Concubine De majesticly walk away. This kind of Concubine De and the palace talents are the appearance he is familiar with, but it turns out that all this is just a disguise, an appearance deliberately made by Concubine De. Why is she doing this?
After a little thought, Emperor Wu of Zhou quickly understood that this was just a way for Concubine De to protect herself. She didn't want to make public but had to make public, and didn't want to be ruthless but had to be ruthless, so that she could deter her enemies and make them dare not attack easily. At least, if you don't reach the level of empress and noble concubine, you can't knock her down at once. Others don't dare to rush in easily. They can't bear the revenge of concubine De, so it saves a lot of unnecessary trouble.
After thinking it through, Emperor Wu of Zhou had to bear it. He originally thought that the woman with a simple mind and crude means turned out to be so intelligent. Thinking a little further, he was even more surprised. Concubine De is indeed arrogant and domineering. There are too many concubines who have been punished by her, but she has always known who can be offended and who cannot be offended. She has always stepped on her own limit, but never crossed it, so , even if I don't like it in my heart, I am willing to give her a certain amount of honor and rights. This is the result of her painstaking efforts.
This woman is not simple, even I was deceived! Emperor Wu of Zhou sighed, feeling even more afraid of the Meng family. But at the same time, he didn't find that his dislike for Concubine De was decreasing.
A smart woman is always admirable, but a smart and beautiful woman is even more irresistible. Accompanied day and night with such a woman, the fall of the soul is only sooner or later.
