Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 92: "Pet Trouble" within the Palace Walls

One day, Ning Yao quietly left the palace to do some work. On the way back to the palace, she saw a small animal lying on the ground, dying, with obvious scars on its body. Ning Yao's heart was instantly tugged, and she felt pity. She gently held the little guy in her arms and looked at it carefully. She saw that it looked very cute, and its big watery eyes flickered smartly, which made people happy. Ning Yao decided to bring the little animal back to the palace and treat it carefully. She also gave it a nickname "Qiuqiu" and ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to take good care of it. Qiuqiu's body recovered quickly under the care of everyone. Its lively and active temperament was fully revealed. It explored around the palace all day, causing many funny things. Qiuqiu often sneaked into the imperial kitchen to steal food. Once, while the chefs were busy, it quietly climbed onto the table and ate up a whole plate of exquisite pastries. The chefs searched left and right, and after a lot of effort, they found Qiuqiu hiding under the table, holding his round belly and laughing. Qiuqiu also has a special liking for the study and always likes to play there. From time to time, it messes up Shen Yu's memorials. Every time Shen Yu sees this chaotic scene, he is so angry that he doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. One day, Qiuqiu was having fun in the imperial garden, but he accidentally triggered a hidden mechanism. In an instant, the fountains in the entire garden started up, and water splashed everywhere. Qiuqiu was frightened by this sudden situation and ran away. Shen Yu and Ning Yao heard the noise and hurried over. Seeing Qiuqiu's panic and embarrassment, they couldn't help laughing. Seeing this, Eunuch Li smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Queen, Qiuqiu is so naughty." Shen Yu smiled and said, "Yes, it is really naughty." Ning Yao smiled and said, "Brother Yu, why don't we hold a pet competition and let all the pets in the palace participate." Shen Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I think this is a good idea." One day, the weather was fine and the Qiuqiu was happily playing hide-and-seek with the palace maids in the imperial garden. Its small and flexible body shuttled among the flowers, causing the palace maids to laugh continuously. However, Qiuqiu accidentally touched the extremely hidden mechanism hidden deep in the flowers while running. In an instant, a series of fountains suddenly started like a wild horse running away, and the water splashed high. The palace maids were frightened by this sudden situation and scattered screaming. But the ball was not frightened, but was rejoicing in the water, moving swiftly in the fountain, its agile figure seemed to be dancing a unique and cheerful dance. Shen Yu and Ning Yao heard the noise and hurried over. Seeing the ball playing in the fountain, they were stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing. Seeing this, Eunuch Li hurried forward and said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Qiuqiu is so cute." Ning Yao said with a smile: "Brother Yu, why don't we hold a pet competition and let all the pets in the palace participate." Shen Yu smiled and nodded, and said: "Okay, I think this is a good idea." Eunuch Li also smiled and echoed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I think this is a good idea. This way, all the pets in the palace can show their talents, and it can also make the atmosphere in the palace more lively." Shen Yu smiled and nodded, and said: "Okay, that's settled, Eunuch Li, you go and arrange it." Eunuch Li smiled and nodded, and said: "Your servant obeys your order." Ning Yao continued: "Brother Yu, do you think we should prepare some prizes for Qiuqiu?" Shen Yu smiled and said: "Okay, then let Eunuch Li prepare it." Eunuch Li smiled and nodded, and said: "Your servant obeys your order." On the day of the pet competition, Qiuqiu successfully attracted the attention of the audience with its unique charm and continuous "mischief", becoming the well-deserved focus. It jumped happily on the wide stage, like a lively elf, and from time to time it blinked its round eyes at the audience to make them laugh, making everyone laugh. When it came to the talent show, Qiuqiu shined even more. It first performed a funny "dog paddle" dance with great effort, and its clumsy and cute movements made people laugh. Then, it raised its head and barked, the sound was sometimes high and sometimes low, the rhythm was strange, and it was also interesting. The audience applauded. The most exciting thing was that Qiuqiu accidentally knocked open a box full of colored paper, and in an instant, the colored paper fluttered out, like a gorgeous "artificial rainbow", instantly pushing the atmosphere to a climax, and Qiuqiu won the hearts of everyone. After the competition, Qiuqiu was solemnly named the "palace mascot". Its appearance filled the palace with laughter and joy all day long, and also made Shen Yu and Ning Yao's relationship closer. Qiuqiu always liked to rub around Shen Yu and Ning Yao intimately, and acted coquettishly and cutely from time to time, always making them laugh. At the same time, some of Qiuqiu's naughty actions accidentally revealed some little secrets of the palace. Once, Qiuqiu accidentally broke into Concubine Shen's bedroom. It jumped up and down in the room, rummaged through the boxes, and actually took out some of Concubine Shen's private letters. Qiuqiu delivered the letter to Ning Yao, who curiously opened the letter and took a look. This was incredible. It turned out to be a love letter written by Concubine Shen to other men. Ning Yao hurriedly presented the letter to Shen Yu. After Shen Yu read it, his face instantly became extremely ugly. He immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. In the end, Concubine Shen was banished to the cold palace, and her family was also implicated. The arrival of Qiuqiu has added a lot of fun to the palace life and made the relationship between Shen Yu and Ning Yao closer. At the same time, some of its unintentional actions seem to have revealed some palace secrets, laying a witty and interesting foreshadowing for the subsequent stories. However, just when everyone was intoxicated with this joy, an uninvited guest suddenly arrived and broke the tranquility. On this day, Qiuqiu was playing with the palace maids in the garden. The sun fell on the flowers, reflecting mottled light and shadow. Suddenly, a mysterious man wrapped in a black robe appeared in front of Qiuqiu. The man in black had a cold look and stared at Qiuqiu for a long time, then suddenly stretched out his hand and tried to grab Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu keenly sensed the approach of danger, turned around in an instant, and ran away like an arrow from a string. Its petite body dodged left and right in the garden and fled everywhere. In a panic, Qiuqiu hid in a dark room. The man in black refused to give up and followed the trail to look around. Finally, in a corner of the room, he found Qiuqiu. The man in black stretched out his rough hand again, trying to catch Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu ran back and forth in the room in panic, and finally curled up in a dark corner. The man in black approached step by step, and his ferocious face seemed to want to eat Qiuqiu alive. At this critical moment, Qiuqiu suddenly jumped up and bit the man in black's hand fiercely. The man in black screamed in pain and subconsciously let go of his hand. Qiuqiu took the opportunity to escape, and the man in black chased after him. Qiuqiu fled desperately in the palace, and hid in a room in a panic. The man in black chased after him and found Qiuqiu again after searching. He made another move, trying to capture Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu ran around the room in panic, and finally hid in a corner again. The man in black slowly approached, stretched out his hand, and was about to catch Qiuqiu. At this critical moment, Qiuqiu jumped up again and bit the man in black's hand. The man in black screamed in pain and had to let go. Qiuqiu took the opportunity to escape, but the man in black was still chasing him.
