    Chapter 56 The evil cat concubine who confuses the country 17

    After a stick of incense, the study room of the General’s Mansion.

    There was a sudden roar in the house, and the snow on the roof was so startled that it trembled and slid down.

    “I thought you had fallen in love with the emperor’s concubine, but you ended up falling in love with a cat?” General Gu was so angry that he threw the tea cup, “Why did my Gu family give birth to such an unworthy thing like you?”

    “He’s no ordinary cat.”

    General Gu sneered: “A cat is still a cat even if it pierces the sky.”

    Gu Qiansi said: “I have been thinking about him ever since he gouged out one of my father’s eyes.”

    “I will snatch him away and learn from my mother how to make the dried fish he likes to eat.”

    General Gu’s face instantly turned pale.

    The conversation ended unhappily.

    On the day of the New Year’s Eve banquet, the dignitaries in Beijing got wind early that His Majesty was going to bring the imperial concubine to the banquet.

    They were inevitably curious about what kind of wonderful person was so beautiful that he could seduce the king and not want to go to court in the morning for several months.

    “Your Majesty has arrived——”

    During the banquet, the guests knelt down and saluted one after another, but their eyes were restless, and they looked at the imperial concubine who was being held by the emperor’s side.

    He was holding on so tightly, as if he was afraid that someone would run away.

    Xie Rong really wanted to run away.

    He saw butterflies several times on the road and always wanted to pounce on them.

    Later, Lu Wenjing stopped halfway and caught him a jar of butterflies before leading him to the Jinluan Palace for the banquet.

    Xie Rong held the glass jar in his arms like a treasure, not caring about the dim and unclear sight around him.

    Just when he passed by Jiang Yebai, he deliberately stepped on the man to vent his malice.

    The layers of brocade clothes carried the fragrance and rubbed past the tip of Jiang Yebai’s nose. His stepped fingers curled up and the tips of his ears turned red, as if he was ashamed and angry.

    The colleagues around him all knew that he had been targeted by a noble concubine in the prison of the Criminal Department. They should have been gloating about his misfortune, but they felt inexplicably unhappy in their hearts.

    The imperial concubine was as tall as a willow tree, and her appearance was even more pleasant than that of a Bodhisattva. She stepped on her lightly and placed it under His Majesty’s nose, as if she was flirting with her. Who knows how happy this guy was in his heart!

    Lu Wenjing seemed to realize something. He turned his head and glanced at Jiang Yebai coldly, as if looking at a dead person.

    What a dead man, he is obviously a bitch.

    Xie Rong took one step ahead of Lu Wenjing and sat directly on the dragon chair.

    After sitting down, he felt that the chair was uncomfortable, so Eunuch Liu hurriedly took out three layers of soft cushions, so that the noble concubine’s delicate body could sit safely on the dragon chair.

    When the imperial concubine is safe, your majesty will be safe.

    Everyone at the table had different expressions, and they couldn’t help but glance upward.

    His Majesty looked evil and took the orange from Eunuch Liu’s hand, peeled it off himself, and fed it to the imperial concubine’s mouth.

    After the imperial concubine ate, his complexion looked better.

    What’s even more strange is that Eunuch Liu was robbed of oranges and was so angry that he became angry.

    Could it be that he, a eunuch, still dares to miss His Majesty’s beloved concubine?

    “Jiang Yebai, haven’t you met the imperial concubine?” Tongtiao came over with ill intentions, but his eyes were fixed on the person beside the emperor, “Has he also flirted with you? Otherwise, why would he only step on you and not others?”

    Jiang Yebai suddenly raised his head and looked at him coldly.

    “I just saw it all,” said the colleague, smiling with unclear meaning, “Isn’t it very refreshing to be stepped on by such a male Bodhisattva?”

    Jiang Yebai glanced at him, stood up and said calmly: “Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang asked me if the imperial concubine goes around seducing men, but I dare not answer.”

    The expression on the colleague’s face changed suddenly. He never thought that this guy was so single-minded. He cursed in his heart and hurriedly knelt down to apologize.

    “Your Majesty, the villain Jiang Yebai complained first, confusing right and wrong. I am really unjust!”

    There was a moment of silence during the dinner.

    Only the emperor’s indifferent voice came from the dragon throne.

    “Drag him down and kill him with a stick.”

    “Wait a minute,” Xie Rong supported his chin. Seeing Master Zhang’s eyes light up and looking at him eagerly, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up maliciously, “Before you kill him with the stick, dig out his heart first.”

    “If you dig it after it’s dead, it won’t be new anymore.”

    The guard hesitated for a moment.

    Lu Wenjing said: “Do as the noble concubine says.”

    The guards blocked Master Zhang’s mouth and dragged him out of the Golden Palace.

    During the dinner, the old minister shook his head and sighed, numbing himself with wine.

    If things go on like this, the great prosperity will probably be in chaos.

    In the early spring of the sixth year of Sheng Yu, the emperor built a new Qifeng Terrace in the palace to please the imperial concubine. Every plant and tree was the imperial concubine’s favorite, and he spent millions of silver.

    In the seventh year of Shengyu, in the middle of winter, Qifengtai was completed. In the early dynasty, the emperor ignored the advice of all his officials and insisted on making the imperial concubine his queen.

    In January of the eighth year of Sheng Yu, the emperor and empress got married at Qifengtai.

    Xie Rong sat on the edge of the couch and tugged at the complicated tassel around his waist irritably.

    Damn Lu Wenjing, how could he let a cat wear so many clothes? He was very uncomfortable!

    Fortunately, Mi’s claws were very powerful and she was able to tear off her bright red wedding dress.

    When Lu Wenjing pushed the door open and entered, he saw his queen sitting among a pile of scattered cloth strips. Her wedding dress was in tatters and her black hair was disheveled, unable to cover her thin snow-white back.

    Xie Rong seemed to be annoyed, and angrily tore off another piece of fabric, so that even the graceful curvature of his lower back was exposed in front of the man.

    Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned around and glared at Lu Wenjing. He opened his mouth and cursed: “Where did you get these tattered clothes again? They make me feel uncomfortable all over! It’s hard for you to find pleasure in your cheap love. Don’t drag me along. I’m not an ugly hairless cat like you.”

    My hair is more beautiful than my clothes, so I don’t want to wear clothes.

    Lu Wenjing’s dark eyes were bottomless. She strode over, knelt down and picked him up. She said hoarsely, “If you don’t feel comfortable, I won’t wear any more.”

    For some reason, Lu Wenjing desperately wanted to get married, but she also wanted to take the day by storm.

    He was always afraid that if he took one step slower, Xie Rong would disappear.

    Fortunately, after the wedding night, his cat was still curled up in his arms and sleeping soundly.

    Xie Rong was only so quiet when he was sleeping. Of the objects in the Yangxin Hall, the only one that had not been scratched, bitten or smashed by a cat so far was the dragon chair.

    Without him, Xie Rong couldn’t bite or scratch him.

    During lunch at noon, Lu Wenjing saw no one, so he looked around hurriedly, and finally found Xie Rong in front of the side hall of Qifeng Terrace.

    Xie Rong sat on the ground, his eyes pressed to the door, holding a dagger in one hand, and he was carving words on the door very carefully.

    Lu Wenjing took a closer look and smiled, “Why isn’t it Xie Rong’s hut, but a big house?”

    Xie Rong swung his tail and swung it at the man’s face, looking at him coldly, “It’s my business anyway, so don’t worry about it.”

    Everything that belongs to the brand must be marked with the mark of the brand.

    “You also engraved my name, and I am yours too,” Lu Wenjing grabbed Xie Rong’s hand and pressed it on his heart, “Do you still remember?”

    Xie Rong smiled strangely, “Remember.”

    Lu Wenjing is his food.

    But now that two years have passed, his magic skills are about to be perfected, and Lu Wenjing will be useless.

    The Imperial Master hunkered down in Xuanqing Palace for two years, thinking that he was just a showman. By then, he would have Xie Rong’s name written on the entire palace.

    Once you write your name, it all belongs to me!
