Chapter 33

Do brothel signs have to be this inspirational?

Is it a warning to others not to go in, because it's just a transaction, and you shouldn't be deceived by the girls inside, losing both your heart and your body?

With the signboard changed, Young Master Piao walked out of the room with a smile to her and the Young Master. "Let's go."

"Hey? Where are you going?"

"I'll go back to the palace with you."

"... So, this means you're agreeing to come with us?"

"Yes." He tilted his head and continued to smile.

"Tch... Getting in the way." The Young Master let out a disdainful snort.

"Little Jing, don't be like that. I'm willing to go with you so that the Pig Kid won't be punished, right?"

"..." Considering this, I'll let it go.

"Oh, wait. I almost forgot something very important." Young Master Piao slapped his forehead, immediately darted back into Liu Rongrong's room, and, disregarding his imperial image, knelt down abruptly, reaching under the bed to rummage around. "My Imperial Noble Consort? My Imperial Noble Consort! Come on, come on, let's go home together."

"..." Which emperor's Imperial Noble Consort was hiding under the bed waiting for him?

"My Imperial Noble Consort, you're being naughty again! Come out here right now."

"Meow... meow meow..." Two affectionate meows came from under the bed.

Zhu Bafu then realized just how much their emperor loved cats...

Seeing that he couldn't get his Imperial Noble Consort to come out, Young Master Piao curled his lips, glanced at Li Chenjing standing to the side, and suddenly unleashed his trump card, "My Imperial Noble Consort, Little Jing is here. If you don't come out, he'll leave, won't he?"

"... Meow!"

It happened so fast!

Suddenly, a large, dark figure with a large belly sprang out from under the bed and pounced on Li Chenjing, who was standing next to Zhu Bafu, with lightning speed.

Before Li Chenjing could react, he noticed a snow-white Persian Cat had somehow appeared at his feet. The cat was heavily pregnant and was meowing and rubbing against his black boots...

"Ah... my Imperial Noble Consort, when will you be able to give up your lust for men?"

"Meow... meow--"

"Hey... is this stupid cat yours?" Li Chenjing frowned.

"Yes, isn't it cute? You used to spoil it a lot, didn't you?"

"..." He used to dote on this cat? Pshaw... Whatever, he doesn't like small animals anymore, unless Little Eight shrinks into a tiny thing. Hmm, but Little Eight is already small enough; any smaller, and he'd crush Little Eight if he tried. So, this size is best. But right now, this one at his feet—"It's in the way, take it away."

"Don't be like that, Little Jing."

"If you don't take her away, I'll kick your Imperial Noble Consort to the Western Paradise."

"..." That much hasn't changed. From the beginning, Little Jing has always wanted to kill this little cutie who has a particular fondness for his male beauty. "Alright, alright, Little Jing doesn't like his Imperial Noble Consort. How pitiful. It's alright, I'll still pamper you." He bent down and hugged his Imperial Noble Consort Young Master Piao into his arms, then walked towards the door.

Zhu Bafu stopped him in his tracks. "Your Majesty, shouldn't you say goodbye to Miss Liu?"

It seems that ever since His Your Majesty praised her terrible poem, Miss Liu has locked herself in her small, elegant room and refused to come out again. That's understandable; she's probably furious...

"Hmm? Say goodbye to Rongrong?" He blinked, seemingly puzzled, and gave an awkward smile. "No need, right? I never specifically told her anything when I came or went."

"... I still think this is inappropriate. You should tell Miss Liu."

"Really? You think this is better, Pig Kid?"

"Of course! After all... Miss Liu must have been quite upset today..."

"..." Raising an eyebrow, he looked at Zhu Bafu with a smile, then shook his head with feigned helplessness. "Alright then. I'll listen to the Pig Kid." Turning around, he took two steps closer to the door of the small inner room and said nonchalantly, "Rongrong, I'm leaving. Be more magnanimous; getting angry will make you ugly."

"..." How can His Your Majesty to a young woman like this! Ah!

Author's Note:

When I wrote this part back then, I inexplicably felt a sense of relief? Miss Liu was completely someone you couldn't sympathize with QAQ It seems like a certain Sakura wrote it.

Female supporting role

They're all pretty annoying, haha. Actually, people often say that the female characters I write aren't likable either~~~ Only the male characters are quite popular~

Going back to work tomorrow~~ How was everyone's Dragon Boat Festival holiday?

Chapter 34 Chapter 33

"Hey... you two, don't leave me walking ahead alone. Come over here, come over here."

The Holy Emperor's affability is truly unparalleled. With a pot-bellied Persian Cat perched on his head, he can still smile and wave at Zhu Bafu and Li Chenjing, signaling them to come closer.

Li Chenjing was naturally unwilling. He frowned, and without thinking, refused the imperial favor, "No. I want to go with Little Eight."

"That Pig Kid... come closer to people, okay?" He blinked innocently, his pitiful tone making Zhu Bafu freeze, three black lines appearing on his forehead.

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate. There is a distinction between ruler and subject. You should go first, and I will follow."

"Hmm? Is that so? I seem to think that when escorting prisoners, the prisoners go first, and the guards follow."

"Your Majesty... this humble subject had absolutely no intention of being offensive."

"Then let's go together."

"This..."
