On how to make the big cat sleep obediently [Time Travel]
Chapter 24 Secret (1)
Jiang Zhi only knew that His Royal Highness had returned to the mansion suddenly after hearing the report from his subordinates, thinking that His Highness had something important to do.
After knowing that Prince Yu just washed up in the main courtyard, changed into casual clothes and went to Wanfeng Courtyard, Jiang Zhi couldn't help feeling a little weird.
——Is it his illusion? Since when did His Highness value Dr. Jian so much?
When he thought about it carefully, he suddenly discovered a "cruel" fact - His Highness seemed to treat Dr. Jian differently from those famous doctors who had treated his "diseases" in the past!
Setting up a separate yard and building a medicine shed and nursery for him can also be said to be for "cure".
But he obviously didn't care much about the two young princes, but he allowed Doctor Jian who liked them to get in touch with them, and he didn't let Jian Xiaonian go to the school grounds, so that he wouldn't have to run back and forth. Seeing people... These things happened to Prince Yu, who was indifferent to everyone and everything, it was simply unbelievable!
Jiang Ziqian also experienced the youthful years when he knew Mu Shaoai, and always felt that his Highness was "different" this time, with a deep meaning that made people wonder.
Jiang Zhi frowned as the delicate, handsome and amiable face of a certain young man appeared in his mind, thinking to himself: It shouldn't be so!
When it comes to beauty, everyone has different aesthetic tastes, so it's really hard to discuss it uniformly, but in Jiang Zhi's opinion, if His Highness really has the heart, at least the twenty or so charming beauties in Luoyingyuan have already accepted Huan and waited on her. sleep.
You know, there are many beautiful male waiters there, there are ice beauties who are as clear as snow, and there are also enthusiastic little goblins, and there are even teenagers who are younger than Dr. Jian, not without... Your Highness one None touched.
——It would be a happy thing for any beauty to win His Highness's heart, but why should it be Dr. Jian who can treat His Highness's illnesses!
Jiang Changshi thought he had found some clues, and his heart was full of worries, for fear that his conjecture would come true.
At this time, Zheng Rong walked into the room, Jiang Zhi hurriedly looked behind him, but did not see the person he wanted to see, and asked anxiously, "Where is Your Highness?"
Zheng Rong didn't know why he showed such an expression, and replied blankly: "It's in Dr. Jian's medicine house."
"Why don't you follow Your Highness!"
Zheng Rong frowned and looked at Jiang Ziqian, who was about to jump, with "Why are you crazy" written on his face.However, out of 20 years of friendship as a colleague, he still said: "Your Highness asked me to come back."
For some reason, Jiang Zhi became even more uneasy: "You mean, His Highness is alone with Doctor Jian right now?!"
Zheng Rong thought to himself: During the few months when I didn't go to the school to train soldiers, didn't His Highness stay alone with Doctor Jian late at night every now and then?At that time, you, Jiang Ziqian, were still elated and eager to celebrate. Why did you change your attitude after such a short time?
A certain guard with a knife couldn't help but slander when he thought of this: These literati are hypocritical, always moody, ruthless, and love to make a fuss when nothing happens.
Jiang Changshi inexplicably understood his expression: "..."
——You military generals are all big bosses, how can you understand the pain of a meticulous and delicate person like us!
"No, I have to go to Wanfeng Courtyard." He took two steps outside, thought of something, grabbed Zheng Rong's hand and dragged him out: "You have to go there with me!"
Although Jiang Zhi knew that with His Royal Highness's deep (boring), brooding, introverted (extremely restrained) personality, even if he really liked someone, he wouldn't force it, and it was still broad daylight, so it was even more difficult for anything to happen.
But the so-called beauties are easy to find, but doctors are hard to find. The ones who can cure His Highness are the ancestors, so there must be no mistakes!
……
At this moment, the Wanfeng Courtyard, which Jiang Changshi was thinking about, was very quiet.
Seeing the young man looking at him and smiling, Liu Yu's heart twitched slightly. His eyes unconsciously passed across the other's face, and finally looked at the things that Jian Xiaonian had just put on the shelf.
"What is this?" He didn't really care what the clumps of green leaves were, he just wanted to say a few words to the boy.
From the moment Jian Xiaonian saw Liu Yu, the smile on his face never disappeared. Now that he heard that Prince Yu was interested in a certain kind of plant, he immediately supported the wooden shelf and replied: "This is the little nepeta. , dried in the sun and can be used as stuffing toys for little tigers.”
He had seen Jiang Zhi in the morning, but he hadn't heard any news from Chang Shi about His Highness's return to the mansion. It can be seen that Liu Yu didn't inform the mansion in advance when he came back this time.
Fudong and the others also said before that in the past, Prince Yu had to lead troops for drills, and was used to living in the camp all the time. At that time, it was normal not to come back once for ten days or half a month.
Originally, I was still counting the days, wondering when I would see my patient again, but I did not expect to see him suddenly...
Jian Xiaonian attributed the joy in his heart to his eagerness to try new essential oils for Liu Yu, so while talking to him, he wondered whether Prince Yu would stay tonight.
When a certain person heard that this thing was prepared for the cubs, his eyes immediately darkened a little. Thinking about the scented copper ball he had just seen in the yard, his mood suddenly changed from the bright one when he first came in to the general bright one.
Jian Xiaonian, who was always paying attention to Liu Yu's expression, found that his complexion seemed to be gloomy, and then looked up at the sun, fearing that he would be basking in the sun when he rushed back and would feel a little uncomfortable, so he called Liu Yu to sit in his medicine hut first. Sit down and get some rest.
He didn't realize at all that His Royal Highness Prince Yu "tied up" himself and chose a uniform that was said to be the most suitable for his brilliance and martial arts.
"You haven't seen my medicine house yet, have you? Do you want to come in and have a look? It's just for you to try a new medicine oil."
Jian Xiaonian didn't see anyone following Liu Yu, so he asked casually, "Where is Mr. Zheng, didn't he come with you?"
On the face of it, Zheng Rong is Liu Yu's personal guard, but in fact he is in charge of the palace's secret guard camp. Like Jiang Zhi, he is Liu Yu's right-hand man.
Because of this public identity, Zheng Rong spent more time with His Royal Highness than Jiang Changshi spent with Liu Yu.
Therefore, in Jian Xiaonian's impression, most of what he saw was the situation where Zheng Rong was with His Highness.
In addition, he once demonstrated the use of aromatherapy on Mr. Zheng, so he has a good impression of this tall guard who is as serious as Liu Yu, and regards Zheng Rong as his "acquaintance" in the palace.
"He didn't come." Liu Yu actually didn't want to answer this question, but Jian Xiaonian turned to look at him at this moment, making it hard for the young man to feel embarrassed because he didn't get an answer.
Upon hearing this, Jian Xiaonian thought that Zheng Rong had other official duties to deal with, so he didn't take it too seriously.
He was just asking casually, but when he got an answer, he naturally nodded slightly, and then acted as if he kindly invited Prince Yu into the room.
Liu Yu followed him across the threshold and walked into Dr. Jian's medicine house.
It is said to be a medicine house, but in fact, the wing room in the side courtyard has been cleaned up, and wooden cabinets with drawers or antique racks have been placed on the entire wall, so that Dr. Jian can store medicinal materials and other supplies by category.
In the room, there are two specially-made desks according to Dr. Jane's instructions as his workbench, and there is also a dark room that is shaded to store essential oils and other valuables.
Liu Yu didn't intend to visit the darkroom. He glanced at the two desks, and found that there were many green leaves neatly arranged on them, and they were all the small nepeta that Jian Xiaonian said would be stuffed with toys for the little boy.
Liu Yu: "..." How many brass balls and toys do you need to play with two little boys who are bigger than your palms? !
Fortunately, Dr. Jian couldn't hear Prince Yu's voice, so he couldn't answer him with "no amount is enough", otherwise someone could really regret entering this room to "visit".
At this moment, Liu Yu suddenly felt something strange in his body, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
Jian Xiaonian was immersed in the joy and excitement of bringing Liu Yu in to visit his "studio", and did not notice any abnormalities in the other party.
He picked up several tools commonly used by doctors and showed them to Liu Yu one by one, as if sharing his favorite things with a good friend, hoping to arouse the interest and resonance of the other party.
"This is a scale, a small scale. Don't underestimate it. It is very convenient for weighing things..."
"This is a medicine grinder. Hold the two ends and push it to roll stones. It is better than a pestle to apply force. However, if the amount is small, use a pestle and mortar to avoid waste..."
"By the way, the new medicated oil that I told His Highness last time is installed in... Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
Jian Xiaonian was excitedly taking out the bottle to give it to Liu Yu, when he found that the other person was holding his forehead with his hand, his brows were furrowed, as if he felt uncomfortable.
He hurried forward, touched Liu Yu's hand lightly, trying to test his body temperature to see if he was suffering from heat stroke, but Liu Yu grabbed his wrist all at once.
Before he had time to react, Jian Xiaonian felt his eyes spinning, and then found himself lying on the desk.
Liu Yu's tall body covered him tightly, Jian Xiaonian couldn't move at all, and what happened suddenly, he was completely stunned, not knowing what happened to the other party.
Those eyes, which are always calm and reserved, are still deep at this moment, but there seems to be something closed inside, and they may run out uncontrollably at any time.
"Your Highness...Your Highness!"
Jian Xiaonian was so frightened that his voice trembled. He had never encountered such a thing, nor had he seen Liu Yu who was so out of control.
He didn't know whether he was worried about his own situation, or the reason why Liu Yu went "crazy".
……
Even if the emotional world is still a blank slate, Jian Xiaonian is not a real 17-year-old boy after all. Anyone with a little common sense can realize how terrible the situation he is in at the moment.
But apart from fear, there was more disbelief in his heart.
He couldn't believe that the man who had always been silent but treated him with great respect and cooperation would do something bad and terrible to him.
At this moment, Dr. Jian and Liu Yu's two confidantes miraculously thought of going together - he and Liu Yu had so many opportunities to be alone, to put it bluntly, the entire palace is Prince Yu's territory, I really want to treat him "nothing" Li, why wait until this moment?
What's more, Jian Xiaonian doesn't think he is a beautiful woman who can make people think crazy. In terms of handsomeness, he is not as good as Liu Yu himself. How can it be worthwhile for Prince Yu, who has never been close to beauty, to "make an exception" for him?
Just when Xiaonian was trying to maintain his little composure and couldn't help calling Liu Yu's name, the other party suddenly closed his eyes again.
As if using all the strength in his body to restrain something, Liu Yu lowered his head, and his breathing was even a little heavier than before.
"Your Highness?" For some reason, Jian Xiaonian felt that Liu Yu was terrible and pitiful at this time, like a little tiger cub who instinctively bit his hand and blamed himself endlessly, making it impossible for people to treat him indifferently.
Jian Xiaonian's timid and gentle voice seemed to restore some clarity to Liu Yu.He kept supporting himself with his hands, not letting himself get close to the visibly trembling boy.
After a while, he stood up suddenly, but did not leave the medicine shed immediately, but rushed into the dark room on one side, and then there were the sounds of clothes being torn and something heavy falling to the ground.
Jian Xiaonian: "???"
After hesitating for a moment between "escape now" and "see Liu Yu's condition", a kind of unconcealable concern for him prompted Jian Xiaonian to walk cautiously to the dark room.
The door of the dark room had been smashed by Liu Yu, and the light from outside leaked in.
Jian Xiaonian could clearly see in the middle of the room, a huge snow-white beast with black stripes on its back lying on the ground, seemingly enduring some pain.
Scattered next to it is Prince Yu's black uniform, which has been completely torn from the inside to the outside at this moment, and can no longer be put together again.
Jian Xiaonian: "!!!"
The majestic and domineering look of the little tiger cub that he had dreamed of countless times when he grew up appeared before him without warning...
Jian Xiaonian, who swore in front of Liu Yu that he would "like big tigers", felt that if he ran away at this moment, he could vividly explain what "Ye Gong loves dragons".
His first reaction was, when did a big white tiger hide in the dark room of his medicine house, and which door did it enter through?
Then I thought that Prince Yu was gone, and I couldn't help worrying whether he would be eaten by a tiger, but there was neither bloody scene nor bloody smell in the room-the most "tragic" scene was the set of Jian Xiaonian's special I like to see Prince Yu wearing black uniforms that can make Liu Yu more heroic.
……
Jiang Zhi dragged Zheng Rong back to Wanfengyuan, and when he was about to go to the medicine house, a shadow guard appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Zheng Rong noticed an indescribably strange expression on his subordinate's face, realized something, and immediately asked seriously: "Where is Your Highness?"
The shadow guard had thought about it for a long time before the leader came, and although there was still a little embarrassment in saying it now, at least the expression was clear.
"His Royal Highness is with Dr. Jane...to do things."
Although the leader was sent away, they had to protect His Highness, so they hid in a distance that would not disturb His Highness as usual, and were always on guard.
In fact, when Dr. Jian said "Your Highness, what's the matter with you" came from the room, they quickly moved closer, but immediately retreated the moment they entered the room.
——His Highness treats Dr. Jian like that... Do you need to guess what you want to do next?
They had never encountered such a situation before, and even the elites of the dark guard battalion, who had experienced many battles, couldn't help but look at each other in blank dismay.
After all, they didn't dare to listen to His Highness's "corner", so they retreated quickly, and were about to find a way to report the matter to the leader, when Jiang Zhi and Zheng Rong came over.
When Jiang Changshi heard the words, he almost lost his footing for a moment——My dear Highness, this is really fatal!
However, at this moment, Zheng Rong, who was in deep thought, noticed something. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the medicine house, and saw Jian Xiaonian standing at the door holding the door frame, looking over timidly.
Jiang Zhi followed his gaze, and naturally found Little Doctor Jian, he hurried forward and looked him up and down.
——Although the clothes look a little wrinkled, at least they are neat, and Dr. Jian's hair is not messed up... There is indeed fear and confusion in his eyes, but they are still clear and bright, and there is no trace of crying. It seems that he has not been affected by anything enough A blow that destroys the body and mind...
Jiang Changshi heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time cast a reproachful glance at Zheng Rong—what kind of eyes do you subordinates have, and you can’t even speak clearly, what do you mean by “doing things”?Scared people out, okay?
Shadow Guard: "..." According to the situation just now, nothing happened...Jiang Changshi, are you really worried about His Highness's health? !
Seeing Zheng Rong staring at him without turning his eyes, Jian Xiaonian finally felt at ease after seeing someone, and he said, "Come in and have a look."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhi realized that the situation was not so easy, and his face immediately became serious. He followed Zheng Rong who had already started to walk quickly into the house, entered the medicine house, and then entered the dark room under the direction of Doctor Jian. Another form of Your Highness...
Subconsciously, he turned back to look at Doctor Jian, and found that the young man was looking this way with worried eyes, as if he was very concerned about Baihu's situation.
——Poor boy, you should worry about yourself first... Knowing this secret, if you still have a chance to survive, you can only resign yourself to fate!
……
After Jian Xiaonian was sent back to his bedroom, he realized that he should be under house arrest.
He was not allowed to go to Prince Yu's Mansion except Liu Yu's study. He used to be free from any restrictions, but now he couldn't even go to his own yard.
Fudong and Lianqiu didn't know what happened, but they were ordered by Jiang Changshi to take good care of Dr. Jian, but not let him step out of the room.
The two maids had seen big scenes, and they immediately realized that this was a taboo committed by Dr. Jian.But since he was still able to live in his own yard and was not imprisoned in the dungeon of the palace, it meant that things might turn around.
They didn't dare to ask Jiang Changshi, let alone Dr. Jian, so they could only pretend to be ordinary and deceive themselves and others.
The little tiger cubs hugged each other and were soundly asleep at noon when they suddenly smelled a terrible smell and woke up immediately.
When they saw that it was Jian Xiaonian who brought the smell that made them tremble, they wanted to run away immediately, but they didn't want to leave Jian Xiaonian, so they were so tangled up and down on the bed.
Jian Xiaonian had no choice but to wash and change into clean clothes before he hugged the round little fur ball.
"Aww, aww~" Guaiguai saw that he had been distracted, so he patted Jian Xiaonian's face with his small claws, trying to call his attention.
Jian Xiaonian grabbed its little claws and pinched it, feeling that it was very easy to pinch, and couldn't help but pat its little head.
Looking at the obedient and cute little figure, a terrifying figure involuntarily appeared in his mind, muttering to himself: "The white tiger is the sky, the Liu family is the surname, the Yi royal family is born as a martial god, the soul can be seen, and the fate is determined." Return... Occasionally, the ancestors of the royal family will return to their souls, and the world will be prosperous..."
This legend recorded in "Yizhou Jianshu" is well known to the people of Jizhou.
But if you want to ask in detail, I am afraid that it is difficult for ordinary people to explain what a "soul" is - they even rarely see the royal family, let alone the extremely rare "ancestor returning soul".
As far as Jian Xiaonian knows, "ancestors returning to the soul" is auspicious from heaven, but it is recorded in the historical records of Jizhou that there are indeed several emperors in history who are ancestors returning to the soul.
But they are all famous emperors who have been passed down through the ages. As a "modern person", Jian Xiaonian is very suspicious of whether this is a "rhetorical method" to ensure the supremacy of the monarchy and centralization of power.
At that time in the dark room of the medicine house, Jian Xiaonian was so surprised that he didn't think about it at first.
But after returning to the room to calm down, recalling the process before and after seeing the white tiger, and carefully savoring the expressions on the faces of Jiang Changshi and Mr. Zheng, what else can't be figured out?
Realizing that he had witnessed a great secret with his own eyes, Jian Xiaonian finally understood the reason for the worry in Jiang Zhi's eyes and the regret in Zheng Rong's eyes.
Liu Yu is the soul of the ancestors. Historically, the souls of the ancestors of Jizhou have all become emperors, but the person sitting on the throne is Liu Yu's half-brother...
——Even if he has the determination to keep this secret, will Liu Yu give him a chance to keep it... This is a secret that can bring disaster to the entire Yu Palace!
His suitcase and everything in the nearby room had been taken away. It seemed that Jiang Changshi was suspecting that Liu Yu's abnormal condition had something to do with his "medicine".
In fact, even Jian Xiaonian himself doubted himself at the beginning, so he sorted out every detail that happened at that time over and over again.
After accepting the fact that Liu Yu may be the return of the ancestors, and thinking about the little Nepeta in his room, Jian Xiaonian wanted to cry but had no tears.
——I was still thinking about why there are no bigger cats in the palace to try catnip, but the big cats came to my house on the back... My flag stands really tall and straight!
……
"This is the little Nepeta that Dr. Jian mentioned."
Jiang Zhi picked up the clumps of green leaves that his subordinates had brought back from the medicine hut and looked at them. It was really hard to believe that this seemingly ordinary grass could force His Highness to transform under normal circumstances.
Dr. Jian said that this is not a common nepeta, but a strange species he found by accident.
According to investigations, Jizhou does have a cat grass named Xiangru, which is very popular with cats in the wild, but it is not as "effective" as Dr. Jian's Nepeta nepeta.
They didn't know that the catnip in Jian Xiaonian's hand was not a "local product" and that it was full of medicinal herb at that time, which would have a terrible impact on a cat that had never been exposed to it.
After Liu Yu woke up and tried to smell it again, he didn't react as violently as the first time.
Even so, there is still no way to completely rule out Dr. Jane's suspicion.
Or to be precise, Jiang Zhi and Zheng Rong are not qualified to decide Dr. Jian's "remain" and "crime".
They have already investigated the situation of Jian's family clearly. Although the person on the throne continued to do some fictitious tricks and tried to interfere with their investigation, Prince Yu had his own judgment and was not affected by it.
Now that such a situation has arisen, the best way is of course to let Jian Xiaonian, who is "unfortunate" to know the secret, never have a chance to tell the secret.
But just thinking of the other party's clear and bright eyes, and his highness who is suspected of being a red luan star, Jiang Changshi felt extremely headache.
"It's not easy for Your Highness to come back. After resting overnight in his own mansion, I believe the palace will not say anything about it, but this matter must be kept a secret, and the wind must not leak."
Zheng Rong nodded: "Don't worry." The secret guard camp he is in charge of will not let even a single word that His Highness and Doctor Jian said in the courtyard spread out.
In fact, apart from Dr. Jian, the only people who saw His Highness's appearance at that time were their two insiders.
The shadow guards present all thought that Dr. Jian was unbearable to be humiliated and injured His Highness while struggling to resist.
As for how Dr. Jian could hurt His Highness, and where it hurt His Highness... They dare not speculate or discuss such things.
In this way, although there may be an inexplicable embarrassment of being injured by an abrupt beauty, the impact is at least less than that caused by the secret of the ancestor's return being known to more people.
"The incident in the southwest has just come to an end. I thought it would be quiet for at least a few months. I didn't expect... Tell me, how will His Highness deal with Dr. Jian?"
Although Jiang Ziqian had followed Liu Yu for many years, he had never encountered such a difficult problem. He was worried and wanted to find someone to share it with.
It's a pity that Mr. Zheng didn't mean to "discuss" with him, saying that he still had to patrol and strode out of the house.
Where Jiang Zhi couldn't see, Zheng Rong slowed down and looked in the direction of Wanfengyuan, but was completely blocked by the dense bushes. He clenched his fists and quickened his pace.
——A person with such a warm smile should be able to turn danger into blessing...
……
After Prince Yu "woke up", in order to prevent the suspicious Emperor Jizhou in the palace from discovering the clues, he needed to return to the school ground immediately.
Before leaving, he unexpectedly had hesitation that he had never experienced in his life. After thinking for a while, he still walked to Wanfeng Courtyard.
The place is now guarded by Prince Yu's personal guards. Without Jiang Changshi's permission, even the two maids are not allowed to enter or leave at will.
When the guards saw His Highness coming in person, they saluted together, and then continued to perform their duties dutifully.
Seeing that the Wanfeng Courtyard was guarded by such heavy soldiers, those who didn't know it might have thought that there were some vicious people locked up in the courtyard.
In fact, in the eyes of the master of the palace, the doctor who lives in Wanfeng Courtyard should be the most gentle and kind person.
That person will always look at him with a charming smile, tell him some past stories that he thinks are interesting to "set" his words, and find out his likes and dislikes.
That person would also use a pair of white and beautiful hands to attract his attention, so that Xijie would not feel uncomfortable due to the sticky medicated oil.
That person doted on the two cubs, and promised that even if they became big guys, he would still like them.
——Maybe the sudden desire at that time was fake, but I cared about that person's heart, but I didn't fake it...
Just as Xiaonian explained to Jiang Ziqian, the effect of Nepeta chinensis on cats does not last for a while, so when he transformed into a white tiger, Liu Yu had almost recovered his sanity.
It lay with its back facing the door, and to some extent, it didn't want to see the fear and disgust in Jian Xiaonian's eyes.
There are many ways to keep Dr. Jian from revealing his secrets, but Liu Yu is reluctant to use any of them on Xiaonian.Even when he heard that Ziqian put him under house arrest in Wanfengyuan, he couldn't help but want to come and see.
The moment he stepped into the moon gate, his eyes were locked on someone, and he couldn't move away.
……
After a sleepless night, Jian Xiaonian looked at the guards standing at the door, feeling uneasy.
——He could feel that the guards inside and outside the courtyard were not ordinary guards.
I don't know if Jiang Changshi forgot, they didn't take the little tiger cub away from Jian Xiaonian, which comforted the lonely and helpless Doctor Jian.
The little tiger cub has long felt Jian Xiaonian's nervousness and hesitation, so he behaved very well from last night to daytime.
Nesting in his arms obediently, she took the initiative to stuff her little claws and tail into his hands and let him play with her, which fully demonstrated the potential and cleverness of "colorful clothes entertaining relatives".
Jian Xiaonian pinched the little tiger cub's soft paws and stroked its fluffy little tail, and it was indeed not as panicky as it was at first.
——It's time to resign to fate again. No matter how uneasy and afraid he is, can things develop according to his own wishes?
However, Jian Xiaonian didn't realize at this time that in his subconscious mind, he didn't really worry that Liu Yu would "strike hard" on him, not entirely because he believed in Prince Yu's character.
"Aww ow ow~" "Aww ow~"
Staying in the room with Jian Xiaonian for one afternoon and one night, seeing that they can't go out for a walk in the morning, the little guys who can't go out to play but can't live without freedom are finally a little unhappy.
But they will never blame Jian Xiaonian, if they want to blame, they will only blame the familiar "stone statues" standing at the door.
They first yelled at the shadow guards wearing light bodyguards on the threshold, and when they realized that the other party ignored them, they immediately screamed angrily.
Obediently, she climbed over the threshold with ease, ran to the front of the shadow guard with a shake, pouted her buttocks, raised her head and screamed even more "fiercely".
The little tiger cub behaved so fiercely, but the shadow guard at the door kept looking forward, and didn't intend to cooperate. The little tiger cub soon became angry, and stretched out his little paw to scratch his boots.
The shadow guard whose boots are about to be scrapped and who wants to cry without tears: "..."
Jian Xiaonian who watched the entire "murder scene": "..."
Really couldn't stand it anymore, Jian Xiaonian waved to the little tiger cub: "Be good, come to brother."
Seeing Jian Xiaonian squatting at the door, the little tiger cub reached out to it, immediately gave up "attacking" the shadow guard, ran back in a hurry, and was picked up by Jian Xiaonian.
"Wooooow~" The little guy returned to Jian Xiaonian's arms, and immediately "complained", his light blue eyes showed a little grievance, Jian Xiaonian hugged it and coaxed him, making the shadow guards beside him feel grief and indignation.
——I don’t know when the little tiger learned this face-changing skill... When they lived in Xiaolin, they were not like this, but just like His Highness, very cold!
Jian Xiaonian finished coaxing the little tiger cub, looked at the shadow guard's boots, and apologized embarrassedly, but the other party didn't respond to him.
Jian Xiaonian, who was originally amused by the little guy making such a fuss, immediately lowered his eyes when he realized that he was now a "prisoner" with an uncertain future.
At this time, the cub who was watching them on the threshold suddenly hid behind Xiaonian, and the boy in his arms also nestled up and exploded. Jian Xiaonian, who realized what was going on, looked into the yard and saw Liu Yu walking through the moon gate. Pace over there.
Seeing his serious and stern face, Jian Xiaonian didn't feel scared, but felt a little joy inexplicably.
But soon, what happened in the medicine house yesterday suddenly appeared in his mind... This person is so close to him that he can feel each other's breath and heartbeat!
Feeling a little embarrassed for some reason, Xiaonian looked away uncomfortably. He hugged the cub tightly in his arms, and hid behind the door frame.
……
Liu Yu, who had been paying attention to him, immediately noticed that Jian Xiaonian was avoiding his eyes, and his heart sank.
It's all a lie that the Yi royal family was born as a martial god, and that the ancestors returned to their souls to achieve great prosperity!
For an ordinary person, the Prince Regent who already bears a "violent reputation" should turn into a terrifying beast. This is such a terrible thing, even if the other party is kind and gentle, he cannot accept it...
——But he said that he would like Big Tiger... It turns out that it was all a lie.
Liu Yu walked down the steps step by step, but he was still much taller than Jian Xiaonian who stood up. He lowered his head and asked, "You are afraid of me."
This was obviously supposed to be a question, but the person who said it had a firm tone, as if he had sentenced himself to death and would not allow the other party to refute.
Xiaonian hugged the two cubs in his arms, and at first he really didn't dare to look at Liu Yu, but when he heard this sentence, he thought his tone was weird, so he glanced at him cautiously.
From their first meeting to the present, the two of them seem to have never discussed the question of whether they are afraid, and Xiaonian naturally did not think about the answer to this question in advance.
——I must have been afraid before, but after getting along, it seems that it is not so obvious...
Xiaonian originally wanted to answer Liu Yu like this, but suddenly the image of the little tiger cub uttering dissatisfaction with the shadow guard suddenly appeared in his mind, and he suddenly wanted to say something to the person in front of him.
Especially when Liu Yu had this indifferent look again, and said things that made people unable to complain but could not be refuted.
The reason why people are afraid is sometimes because the opponent's strength is unknown, sometimes it is because of the disparity in strength between the two, and sometimes it is simply the fear that they imagined.
Even if Liu Yu never really did anything to him, even if he is the only doctor who can improve the other party's insomnia, but as long as their identities are like this, there is no real equality.
"Your Highness' words can decide my life or death, so of course I will be afraid."
——Unless his heart is strong enough to resist the humiliation and unwillingness caused by inequality, then he is really not afraid.
After listening to Jian Xiaonian's words, Liu Yu looked at his eyes that were still reluctant to meet his gaze, said nothing more, turned around and left the Wanfeng Courtyard, and disappeared at the Moon Gate.
Poking his head and looking around, he felt that the big tiger had really left, and the little guy in Jian Xiaonian's arms immediately came alive.
Obediently stared at Jian Xiaonian with great admiration - its brother is so deadly!By my brother's side, every time the big tiger came over, he had to leave in despair.
It selectively forgot the last "encounter" in the lake. They turned into drowned tiger cubs and were carried back by Jian Xiaonian, who was also wet.
Zai Zai has been very afraid of the big tiger ever since Liu Yu was about to snatch his precious copper ball. When Liu Yu was standing under the steps just now, it opened its small mouth to reveal its small fangs, while looking at yesterday before it was too late to take it back. , Small copper balls scattered in the yard, for fear that someone will not give up.
But after they thought about it for a while, they found that Jian Xiaonian was still in the same posture just now, standing motionless at the door, with his head down and he didn't know what he was looking at.
"Wooooow~" Obediently stood on his hind legs, with his front paws resting on his chest, he stretched his neck and leaned over to rub Jian Xiaonian's chin.
Feeling the little guy's icy soft nose tip and the fluff on his face, Jian Xiaonian smiled wryly.
——Although it was the truth, he just said some messy things to Liu Yu... Shouldn't he swear a poisonous oath and show his loyalty at this time? !
……
Prince Yu returned to the Prince Regent's Mansion, and left the mansion the next morning, and then did not return for nearly a month. To the people outside, it was not surprising.
Doctor Jian's crisis was obviously over, because the guards inside and outside Wan Feng's courtyard were removed after Liu Yu left.
He can do things in the medicine house again, and even walk around in the palace, everything seems to be back to normal.
Whether it's because of good character or to save his life, Prince Yu believes that Dr. Jian will keep his mouth shut. They are still kind and gentle doctors and highly cooperative patients.
The incense stones prepared by Doctor Jian are delivered to Prince Yu by the people in the palace on time every five days.
Deliberately not thinking about this person, taking care of the new seedlings in the nursery, making essential oils, and playing with the little tiger every day, the days are easy to pass.
But when Jian Xiaonian knew that Liu Yu's "illness" had worsened, and even almost fell off the horse because he hadn't slept for ten days, he immediately told Jiang Changshi, who came to "tip the news", that he would go to the school again.
The author has something to say: ——Little Theater——
Big Meow King (sorrow):
After knowing that Prince Yu just washed up in the main courtyard, changed into casual clothes and went to Wanfeng Courtyard, Jiang Zhi couldn't help feeling a little weird.
——Is it his illusion? Since when did His Highness value Dr. Jian so much?
When he thought about it carefully, he suddenly discovered a "cruel" fact - His Highness seemed to treat Dr. Jian differently from those famous doctors who had treated his "diseases" in the past!
Setting up a separate yard and building a medicine shed and nursery for him can also be said to be for "cure".
But he obviously didn't care much about the two young princes, but he allowed Doctor Jian who liked them to get in touch with them, and he didn't let Jian Xiaonian go to the school grounds, so that he wouldn't have to run back and forth. Seeing people... These things happened to Prince Yu, who was indifferent to everyone and everything, it was simply unbelievable!
Jiang Ziqian also experienced the youthful years when he knew Mu Shaoai, and always felt that his Highness was "different" this time, with a deep meaning that made people wonder.
Jiang Zhi frowned as the delicate, handsome and amiable face of a certain young man appeared in his mind, thinking to himself: It shouldn't be so!
When it comes to beauty, everyone has different aesthetic tastes, so it's really hard to discuss it uniformly, but in Jiang Zhi's opinion, if His Highness really has the heart, at least the twenty or so charming beauties in Luoyingyuan have already accepted Huan and waited on her. sleep.
You know, there are many beautiful male waiters there, there are ice beauties who are as clear as snow, and there are also enthusiastic little goblins, and there are even teenagers who are younger than Dr. Jian, not without... Your Highness one None touched.
——It would be a happy thing for any beauty to win His Highness's heart, but why should it be Dr. Jian who can treat His Highness's illnesses!
Jiang Changshi thought he had found some clues, and his heart was full of worries, for fear that his conjecture would come true.
At this time, Zheng Rong walked into the room, Jiang Zhi hurriedly looked behind him, but did not see the person he wanted to see, and asked anxiously, "Where is Your Highness?"
Zheng Rong didn't know why he showed such an expression, and replied blankly: "It's in Dr. Jian's medicine house."
"Why don't you follow Your Highness!"
Zheng Rong frowned and looked at Jiang Ziqian, who was about to jump, with "Why are you crazy" written on his face.However, out of 20 years of friendship as a colleague, he still said: "Your Highness asked me to come back."
For some reason, Jiang Zhi became even more uneasy: "You mean, His Highness is alone with Doctor Jian right now?!"
Zheng Rong thought to himself: During the few months when I didn't go to the school to train soldiers, didn't His Highness stay alone with Doctor Jian late at night every now and then?At that time, you, Jiang Ziqian, were still elated and eager to celebrate. Why did you change your attitude after such a short time?
A certain guard with a knife couldn't help but slander when he thought of this: These literati are hypocritical, always moody, ruthless, and love to make a fuss when nothing happens.
Jiang Changshi inexplicably understood his expression: "..."
——You military generals are all big bosses, how can you understand the pain of a meticulous and delicate person like us!
"No, I have to go to Wanfeng Courtyard." He took two steps outside, thought of something, grabbed Zheng Rong's hand and dragged him out: "You have to go there with me!"
Although Jiang Zhi knew that with His Royal Highness's deep (boring), brooding, introverted (extremely restrained) personality, even if he really liked someone, he wouldn't force it, and it was still broad daylight, so it was even more difficult for anything to happen.
But the so-called beauties are easy to find, but doctors are hard to find. The ones who can cure His Highness are the ancestors, so there must be no mistakes!
……
At this moment, the Wanfeng Courtyard, which Jiang Changshi was thinking about, was very quiet.
Seeing the young man looking at him and smiling, Liu Yu's heart twitched slightly. His eyes unconsciously passed across the other's face, and finally looked at the things that Jian Xiaonian had just put on the shelf.
"What is this?" He didn't really care what the clumps of green leaves were, he just wanted to say a few words to the boy.
From the moment Jian Xiaonian saw Liu Yu, the smile on his face never disappeared. Now that he heard that Prince Yu was interested in a certain kind of plant, he immediately supported the wooden shelf and replied: "This is the little nepeta. , dried in the sun and can be used as stuffing toys for little tigers.”
He had seen Jiang Zhi in the morning, but he hadn't heard any news from Chang Shi about His Highness's return to the mansion. It can be seen that Liu Yu didn't inform the mansion in advance when he came back this time.
Fudong and the others also said before that in the past, Prince Yu had to lead troops for drills, and was used to living in the camp all the time. At that time, it was normal not to come back once for ten days or half a month.
Originally, I was still counting the days, wondering when I would see my patient again, but I did not expect to see him suddenly...
Jian Xiaonian attributed the joy in his heart to his eagerness to try new essential oils for Liu Yu, so while talking to him, he wondered whether Prince Yu would stay tonight.
When a certain person heard that this thing was prepared for the cubs, his eyes immediately darkened a little. Thinking about the scented copper ball he had just seen in the yard, his mood suddenly changed from the bright one when he first came in to the general bright one.
Jian Xiaonian, who was always paying attention to Liu Yu's expression, found that his complexion seemed to be gloomy, and then looked up at the sun, fearing that he would be basking in the sun when he rushed back and would feel a little uncomfortable, so he called Liu Yu to sit in his medicine hut first. Sit down and get some rest.
He didn't realize at all that His Royal Highness Prince Yu "tied up" himself and chose a uniform that was said to be the most suitable for his brilliance and martial arts.
"You haven't seen my medicine house yet, have you? Do you want to come in and have a look? It's just for you to try a new medicine oil."
Jian Xiaonian didn't see anyone following Liu Yu, so he asked casually, "Where is Mr. Zheng, didn't he come with you?"
On the face of it, Zheng Rong is Liu Yu's personal guard, but in fact he is in charge of the palace's secret guard camp. Like Jiang Zhi, he is Liu Yu's right-hand man.
Because of this public identity, Zheng Rong spent more time with His Royal Highness than Jiang Changshi spent with Liu Yu.
Therefore, in Jian Xiaonian's impression, most of what he saw was the situation where Zheng Rong was with His Highness.
In addition, he once demonstrated the use of aromatherapy on Mr. Zheng, so he has a good impression of this tall guard who is as serious as Liu Yu, and regards Zheng Rong as his "acquaintance" in the palace.
"He didn't come." Liu Yu actually didn't want to answer this question, but Jian Xiaonian turned to look at him at this moment, making it hard for the young man to feel embarrassed because he didn't get an answer.
Upon hearing this, Jian Xiaonian thought that Zheng Rong had other official duties to deal with, so he didn't take it too seriously.
He was just asking casually, but when he got an answer, he naturally nodded slightly, and then acted as if he kindly invited Prince Yu into the room.
Liu Yu followed him across the threshold and walked into Dr. Jian's medicine house.
It is said to be a medicine house, but in fact, the wing room in the side courtyard has been cleaned up, and wooden cabinets with drawers or antique racks have been placed on the entire wall, so that Dr. Jian can store medicinal materials and other supplies by category.
In the room, there are two specially-made desks according to Dr. Jane's instructions as his workbench, and there is also a dark room that is shaded to store essential oils and other valuables.
Liu Yu didn't intend to visit the darkroom. He glanced at the two desks, and found that there were many green leaves neatly arranged on them, and they were all the small nepeta that Jian Xiaonian said would be stuffed with toys for the little boy.
Liu Yu: "..." How many brass balls and toys do you need to play with two little boys who are bigger than your palms? !
Fortunately, Dr. Jian couldn't hear Prince Yu's voice, so he couldn't answer him with "no amount is enough", otherwise someone could really regret entering this room to "visit".
At this moment, Liu Yu suddenly felt something strange in his body, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
Jian Xiaonian was immersed in the joy and excitement of bringing Liu Yu in to visit his "studio", and did not notice any abnormalities in the other party.
He picked up several tools commonly used by doctors and showed them to Liu Yu one by one, as if sharing his favorite things with a good friend, hoping to arouse the interest and resonance of the other party.
"This is a scale, a small scale. Don't underestimate it. It is very convenient for weighing things..."
"This is a medicine grinder. Hold the two ends and push it to roll stones. It is better than a pestle to apply force. However, if the amount is small, use a pestle and mortar to avoid waste..."
"By the way, the new medicated oil that I told His Highness last time is installed in... Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
Jian Xiaonian was excitedly taking out the bottle to give it to Liu Yu, when he found that the other person was holding his forehead with his hand, his brows were furrowed, as if he felt uncomfortable.
He hurried forward, touched Liu Yu's hand lightly, trying to test his body temperature to see if he was suffering from heat stroke, but Liu Yu grabbed his wrist all at once.
Before he had time to react, Jian Xiaonian felt his eyes spinning, and then found himself lying on the desk.
Liu Yu's tall body covered him tightly, Jian Xiaonian couldn't move at all, and what happened suddenly, he was completely stunned, not knowing what happened to the other party.
Those eyes, which are always calm and reserved, are still deep at this moment, but there seems to be something closed inside, and they may run out uncontrollably at any time.
"Your Highness...Your Highness!"
Jian Xiaonian was so frightened that his voice trembled. He had never encountered such a thing, nor had he seen Liu Yu who was so out of control.
He didn't know whether he was worried about his own situation, or the reason why Liu Yu went "crazy".
……
Even if the emotional world is still a blank slate, Jian Xiaonian is not a real 17-year-old boy after all. Anyone with a little common sense can realize how terrible the situation he is in at the moment.
But apart from fear, there was more disbelief in his heart.
He couldn't believe that the man who had always been silent but treated him with great respect and cooperation would do something bad and terrible to him.
At this moment, Dr. Jian and Liu Yu's two confidantes miraculously thought of going together - he and Liu Yu had so many opportunities to be alone, to put it bluntly, the entire palace is Prince Yu's territory, I really want to treat him "nothing" Li, why wait until this moment?
What's more, Jian Xiaonian doesn't think he is a beautiful woman who can make people think crazy. In terms of handsomeness, he is not as good as Liu Yu himself. How can it be worthwhile for Prince Yu, who has never been close to beauty, to "make an exception" for him?
Just when Xiaonian was trying to maintain his little composure and couldn't help calling Liu Yu's name, the other party suddenly closed his eyes again.
As if using all the strength in his body to restrain something, Liu Yu lowered his head, and his breathing was even a little heavier than before.
"Your Highness?" For some reason, Jian Xiaonian felt that Liu Yu was terrible and pitiful at this time, like a little tiger cub who instinctively bit his hand and blamed himself endlessly, making it impossible for people to treat him indifferently.
Jian Xiaonian's timid and gentle voice seemed to restore some clarity to Liu Yu.He kept supporting himself with his hands, not letting himself get close to the visibly trembling boy.
After a while, he stood up suddenly, but did not leave the medicine shed immediately, but rushed into the dark room on one side, and then there were the sounds of clothes being torn and something heavy falling to the ground.
Jian Xiaonian: "???"
After hesitating for a moment between "escape now" and "see Liu Yu's condition", a kind of unconcealable concern for him prompted Jian Xiaonian to walk cautiously to the dark room.
The door of the dark room had been smashed by Liu Yu, and the light from outside leaked in.
Jian Xiaonian could clearly see in the middle of the room, a huge snow-white beast with black stripes on its back lying on the ground, seemingly enduring some pain.
Scattered next to it is Prince Yu's black uniform, which has been completely torn from the inside to the outside at this moment, and can no longer be put together again.
Jian Xiaonian: "!!!"
The majestic and domineering look of the little tiger cub that he had dreamed of countless times when he grew up appeared before him without warning...
Jian Xiaonian, who swore in front of Liu Yu that he would "like big tigers", felt that if he ran away at this moment, he could vividly explain what "Ye Gong loves dragons".
His first reaction was, when did a big white tiger hide in the dark room of his medicine house, and which door did it enter through?
Then I thought that Prince Yu was gone, and I couldn't help worrying whether he would be eaten by a tiger, but there was neither bloody scene nor bloody smell in the room-the most "tragic" scene was the set of Jian Xiaonian's special I like to see Prince Yu wearing black uniforms that can make Liu Yu more heroic.
……
Jiang Zhi dragged Zheng Rong back to Wanfengyuan, and when he was about to go to the medicine house, a shadow guard appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Zheng Rong noticed an indescribably strange expression on his subordinate's face, realized something, and immediately asked seriously: "Where is Your Highness?"
The shadow guard had thought about it for a long time before the leader came, and although there was still a little embarrassment in saying it now, at least the expression was clear.
"His Royal Highness is with Dr. Jane...to do things."
Although the leader was sent away, they had to protect His Highness, so they hid in a distance that would not disturb His Highness as usual, and were always on guard.
In fact, when Dr. Jian said "Your Highness, what's the matter with you" came from the room, they quickly moved closer, but immediately retreated the moment they entered the room.
——His Highness treats Dr. Jian like that... Do you need to guess what you want to do next?
They had never encountered such a situation before, and even the elites of the dark guard battalion, who had experienced many battles, couldn't help but look at each other in blank dismay.
After all, they didn't dare to listen to His Highness's "corner", so they retreated quickly, and were about to find a way to report the matter to the leader, when Jiang Zhi and Zheng Rong came over.
When Jiang Changshi heard the words, he almost lost his footing for a moment——My dear Highness, this is really fatal!
However, at this moment, Zheng Rong, who was in deep thought, noticed something. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the medicine house, and saw Jian Xiaonian standing at the door holding the door frame, looking over timidly.
Jiang Zhi followed his gaze, and naturally found Little Doctor Jian, he hurried forward and looked him up and down.
——Although the clothes look a little wrinkled, at least they are neat, and Dr. Jian's hair is not messed up... There is indeed fear and confusion in his eyes, but they are still clear and bright, and there is no trace of crying. It seems that he has not been affected by anything enough A blow that destroys the body and mind...
Jiang Changshi heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time cast a reproachful glance at Zheng Rong—what kind of eyes do you subordinates have, and you can’t even speak clearly, what do you mean by “doing things”?Scared people out, okay?
Shadow Guard: "..." According to the situation just now, nothing happened...Jiang Changshi, are you really worried about His Highness's health? !
Seeing Zheng Rong staring at him without turning his eyes, Jian Xiaonian finally felt at ease after seeing someone, and he said, "Come in and have a look."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhi realized that the situation was not so easy, and his face immediately became serious. He followed Zheng Rong who had already started to walk quickly into the house, entered the medicine house, and then entered the dark room under the direction of Doctor Jian. Another form of Your Highness...
Subconsciously, he turned back to look at Doctor Jian, and found that the young man was looking this way with worried eyes, as if he was very concerned about Baihu's situation.
——Poor boy, you should worry about yourself first... Knowing this secret, if you still have a chance to survive, you can only resign yourself to fate!
……
After Jian Xiaonian was sent back to his bedroom, he realized that he should be under house arrest.
He was not allowed to go to Prince Yu's Mansion except Liu Yu's study. He used to be free from any restrictions, but now he couldn't even go to his own yard.
Fudong and Lianqiu didn't know what happened, but they were ordered by Jiang Changshi to take good care of Dr. Jian, but not let him step out of the room.
The two maids had seen big scenes, and they immediately realized that this was a taboo committed by Dr. Jian.But since he was still able to live in his own yard and was not imprisoned in the dungeon of the palace, it meant that things might turn around.
They didn't dare to ask Jiang Changshi, let alone Dr. Jian, so they could only pretend to be ordinary and deceive themselves and others.
The little tiger cubs hugged each other and were soundly asleep at noon when they suddenly smelled a terrible smell and woke up immediately.
When they saw that it was Jian Xiaonian who brought the smell that made them tremble, they wanted to run away immediately, but they didn't want to leave Jian Xiaonian, so they were so tangled up and down on the bed.
Jian Xiaonian had no choice but to wash and change into clean clothes before he hugged the round little fur ball.
"Aww, aww~" Guaiguai saw that he had been distracted, so he patted Jian Xiaonian's face with his small claws, trying to call his attention.
Jian Xiaonian grabbed its little claws and pinched it, feeling that it was very easy to pinch, and couldn't help but pat its little head.
Looking at the obedient and cute little figure, a terrifying figure involuntarily appeared in his mind, muttering to himself: "The white tiger is the sky, the Liu family is the surname, the Yi royal family is born as a martial god, the soul can be seen, and the fate is determined." Return... Occasionally, the ancestors of the royal family will return to their souls, and the world will be prosperous..."
This legend recorded in "Yizhou Jianshu" is well known to the people of Jizhou.
But if you want to ask in detail, I am afraid that it is difficult for ordinary people to explain what a "soul" is - they even rarely see the royal family, let alone the extremely rare "ancestor returning soul".
As far as Jian Xiaonian knows, "ancestors returning to the soul" is auspicious from heaven, but it is recorded in the historical records of Jizhou that there are indeed several emperors in history who are ancestors returning to the soul.
But they are all famous emperors who have been passed down through the ages. As a "modern person", Jian Xiaonian is very suspicious of whether this is a "rhetorical method" to ensure the supremacy of the monarchy and centralization of power.
At that time in the dark room of the medicine house, Jian Xiaonian was so surprised that he didn't think about it at first.
But after returning to the room to calm down, recalling the process before and after seeing the white tiger, and carefully savoring the expressions on the faces of Jiang Changshi and Mr. Zheng, what else can't be figured out?
Realizing that he had witnessed a great secret with his own eyes, Jian Xiaonian finally understood the reason for the worry in Jiang Zhi's eyes and the regret in Zheng Rong's eyes.
Liu Yu is the soul of the ancestors. Historically, the souls of the ancestors of Jizhou have all become emperors, but the person sitting on the throne is Liu Yu's half-brother...
——Even if he has the determination to keep this secret, will Liu Yu give him a chance to keep it... This is a secret that can bring disaster to the entire Yu Palace!
His suitcase and everything in the nearby room had been taken away. It seemed that Jiang Changshi was suspecting that Liu Yu's abnormal condition had something to do with his "medicine".
In fact, even Jian Xiaonian himself doubted himself at the beginning, so he sorted out every detail that happened at that time over and over again.
After accepting the fact that Liu Yu may be the return of the ancestors, and thinking about the little Nepeta in his room, Jian Xiaonian wanted to cry but had no tears.
——I was still thinking about why there are no bigger cats in the palace to try catnip, but the big cats came to my house on the back... My flag stands really tall and straight!
……
"This is the little Nepeta that Dr. Jian mentioned."
Jiang Zhi picked up the clumps of green leaves that his subordinates had brought back from the medicine hut and looked at them. It was really hard to believe that this seemingly ordinary grass could force His Highness to transform under normal circumstances.
Dr. Jian said that this is not a common nepeta, but a strange species he found by accident.
According to investigations, Jizhou does have a cat grass named Xiangru, which is very popular with cats in the wild, but it is not as "effective" as Dr. Jian's Nepeta nepeta.
They didn't know that the catnip in Jian Xiaonian's hand was not a "local product" and that it was full of medicinal herb at that time, which would have a terrible impact on a cat that had never been exposed to it.
After Liu Yu woke up and tried to smell it again, he didn't react as violently as the first time.
Even so, there is still no way to completely rule out Dr. Jane's suspicion.
Or to be precise, Jiang Zhi and Zheng Rong are not qualified to decide Dr. Jian's "remain" and "crime".
They have already investigated the situation of Jian's family clearly. Although the person on the throne continued to do some fictitious tricks and tried to interfere with their investigation, Prince Yu had his own judgment and was not affected by it.
Now that such a situation has arisen, the best way is of course to let Jian Xiaonian, who is "unfortunate" to know the secret, never have a chance to tell the secret.
But just thinking of the other party's clear and bright eyes, and his highness who is suspected of being a red luan star, Jiang Changshi felt extremely headache.
"It's not easy for Your Highness to come back. After resting overnight in his own mansion, I believe the palace will not say anything about it, but this matter must be kept a secret, and the wind must not leak."
Zheng Rong nodded: "Don't worry." The secret guard camp he is in charge of will not let even a single word that His Highness and Doctor Jian said in the courtyard spread out.
In fact, apart from Dr. Jian, the only people who saw His Highness's appearance at that time were their two insiders.
The shadow guards present all thought that Dr. Jian was unbearable to be humiliated and injured His Highness while struggling to resist.
As for how Dr. Jian could hurt His Highness, and where it hurt His Highness... They dare not speculate or discuss such things.
In this way, although there may be an inexplicable embarrassment of being injured by an abrupt beauty, the impact is at least less than that caused by the secret of the ancestor's return being known to more people.
"The incident in the southwest has just come to an end. I thought it would be quiet for at least a few months. I didn't expect... Tell me, how will His Highness deal with Dr. Jian?"
Although Jiang Ziqian had followed Liu Yu for many years, he had never encountered such a difficult problem. He was worried and wanted to find someone to share it with.
It's a pity that Mr. Zheng didn't mean to "discuss" with him, saying that he still had to patrol and strode out of the house.
Where Jiang Zhi couldn't see, Zheng Rong slowed down and looked in the direction of Wanfengyuan, but was completely blocked by the dense bushes. He clenched his fists and quickened his pace.
——A person with such a warm smile should be able to turn danger into blessing...
……
After Prince Yu "woke up", in order to prevent the suspicious Emperor Jizhou in the palace from discovering the clues, he needed to return to the school ground immediately.
Before leaving, he unexpectedly had hesitation that he had never experienced in his life. After thinking for a while, he still walked to Wanfeng Courtyard.
The place is now guarded by Prince Yu's personal guards. Without Jiang Changshi's permission, even the two maids are not allowed to enter or leave at will.
When the guards saw His Highness coming in person, they saluted together, and then continued to perform their duties dutifully.
Seeing that the Wanfeng Courtyard was guarded by such heavy soldiers, those who didn't know it might have thought that there were some vicious people locked up in the courtyard.
In fact, in the eyes of the master of the palace, the doctor who lives in Wanfeng Courtyard should be the most gentle and kind person.
That person will always look at him with a charming smile, tell him some past stories that he thinks are interesting to "set" his words, and find out his likes and dislikes.
That person would also use a pair of white and beautiful hands to attract his attention, so that Xijie would not feel uncomfortable due to the sticky medicated oil.
That person doted on the two cubs, and promised that even if they became big guys, he would still like them.
——Maybe the sudden desire at that time was fake, but I cared about that person's heart, but I didn't fake it...
Just as Xiaonian explained to Jiang Ziqian, the effect of Nepeta chinensis on cats does not last for a while, so when he transformed into a white tiger, Liu Yu had almost recovered his sanity.
It lay with its back facing the door, and to some extent, it didn't want to see the fear and disgust in Jian Xiaonian's eyes.
There are many ways to keep Dr. Jian from revealing his secrets, but Liu Yu is reluctant to use any of them on Xiaonian.Even when he heard that Ziqian put him under house arrest in Wanfengyuan, he couldn't help but want to come and see.
The moment he stepped into the moon gate, his eyes were locked on someone, and he couldn't move away.
……
After a sleepless night, Jian Xiaonian looked at the guards standing at the door, feeling uneasy.
——He could feel that the guards inside and outside the courtyard were not ordinary guards.
I don't know if Jiang Changshi forgot, they didn't take the little tiger cub away from Jian Xiaonian, which comforted the lonely and helpless Doctor Jian.
The little tiger cub has long felt Jian Xiaonian's nervousness and hesitation, so he behaved very well from last night to daytime.
Nesting in his arms obediently, she took the initiative to stuff her little claws and tail into his hands and let him play with her, which fully demonstrated the potential and cleverness of "colorful clothes entertaining relatives".
Jian Xiaonian pinched the little tiger cub's soft paws and stroked its fluffy little tail, and it was indeed not as panicky as it was at first.
——It's time to resign to fate again. No matter how uneasy and afraid he is, can things develop according to his own wishes?
However, Jian Xiaonian didn't realize at this time that in his subconscious mind, he didn't really worry that Liu Yu would "strike hard" on him, not entirely because he believed in Prince Yu's character.
"Aww ow ow~" "Aww ow~"
Staying in the room with Jian Xiaonian for one afternoon and one night, seeing that they can't go out for a walk in the morning, the little guys who can't go out to play but can't live without freedom are finally a little unhappy.
But they will never blame Jian Xiaonian, if they want to blame, they will only blame the familiar "stone statues" standing at the door.
They first yelled at the shadow guards wearing light bodyguards on the threshold, and when they realized that the other party ignored them, they immediately screamed angrily.
Obediently, she climbed over the threshold with ease, ran to the front of the shadow guard with a shake, pouted her buttocks, raised her head and screamed even more "fiercely".
The little tiger cub behaved so fiercely, but the shadow guard at the door kept looking forward, and didn't intend to cooperate. The little tiger cub soon became angry, and stretched out his little paw to scratch his boots.
The shadow guard whose boots are about to be scrapped and who wants to cry without tears: "..."
Jian Xiaonian who watched the entire "murder scene": "..."
Really couldn't stand it anymore, Jian Xiaonian waved to the little tiger cub: "Be good, come to brother."
Seeing Jian Xiaonian squatting at the door, the little tiger cub reached out to it, immediately gave up "attacking" the shadow guard, ran back in a hurry, and was picked up by Jian Xiaonian.
"Wooooow~" The little guy returned to Jian Xiaonian's arms, and immediately "complained", his light blue eyes showed a little grievance, Jian Xiaonian hugged it and coaxed him, making the shadow guards beside him feel grief and indignation.
——I don’t know when the little tiger learned this face-changing skill... When they lived in Xiaolin, they were not like this, but just like His Highness, very cold!
Jian Xiaonian finished coaxing the little tiger cub, looked at the shadow guard's boots, and apologized embarrassedly, but the other party didn't respond to him.
Jian Xiaonian, who was originally amused by the little guy making such a fuss, immediately lowered his eyes when he realized that he was now a "prisoner" with an uncertain future.
At this time, the cub who was watching them on the threshold suddenly hid behind Xiaonian, and the boy in his arms also nestled up and exploded. Jian Xiaonian, who realized what was going on, looked into the yard and saw Liu Yu walking through the moon gate. Pace over there.
Seeing his serious and stern face, Jian Xiaonian didn't feel scared, but felt a little joy inexplicably.
But soon, what happened in the medicine house yesterday suddenly appeared in his mind... This person is so close to him that he can feel each other's breath and heartbeat!
Feeling a little embarrassed for some reason, Xiaonian looked away uncomfortably. He hugged the cub tightly in his arms, and hid behind the door frame.
……
Liu Yu, who had been paying attention to him, immediately noticed that Jian Xiaonian was avoiding his eyes, and his heart sank.
It's all a lie that the Yi royal family was born as a martial god, and that the ancestors returned to their souls to achieve great prosperity!
For an ordinary person, the Prince Regent who already bears a "violent reputation" should turn into a terrifying beast. This is such a terrible thing, even if the other party is kind and gentle, he cannot accept it...
——But he said that he would like Big Tiger... It turns out that it was all a lie.
Liu Yu walked down the steps step by step, but he was still much taller than Jian Xiaonian who stood up. He lowered his head and asked, "You are afraid of me."
This was obviously supposed to be a question, but the person who said it had a firm tone, as if he had sentenced himself to death and would not allow the other party to refute.
Xiaonian hugged the two cubs in his arms, and at first he really didn't dare to look at Liu Yu, but when he heard this sentence, he thought his tone was weird, so he glanced at him cautiously.
From their first meeting to the present, the two of them seem to have never discussed the question of whether they are afraid, and Xiaonian naturally did not think about the answer to this question in advance.
——I must have been afraid before, but after getting along, it seems that it is not so obvious...
Xiaonian originally wanted to answer Liu Yu like this, but suddenly the image of the little tiger cub uttering dissatisfaction with the shadow guard suddenly appeared in his mind, and he suddenly wanted to say something to the person in front of him.
Especially when Liu Yu had this indifferent look again, and said things that made people unable to complain but could not be refuted.
The reason why people are afraid is sometimes because the opponent's strength is unknown, sometimes it is because of the disparity in strength between the two, and sometimes it is simply the fear that they imagined.
Even if Liu Yu never really did anything to him, even if he is the only doctor who can improve the other party's insomnia, but as long as their identities are like this, there is no real equality.
"Your Highness' words can decide my life or death, so of course I will be afraid."
——Unless his heart is strong enough to resist the humiliation and unwillingness caused by inequality, then he is really not afraid.
After listening to Jian Xiaonian's words, Liu Yu looked at his eyes that were still reluctant to meet his gaze, said nothing more, turned around and left the Wanfeng Courtyard, and disappeared at the Moon Gate.
Poking his head and looking around, he felt that the big tiger had really left, and the little guy in Jian Xiaonian's arms immediately came alive.
Obediently stared at Jian Xiaonian with great admiration - its brother is so deadly!By my brother's side, every time the big tiger came over, he had to leave in despair.
It selectively forgot the last "encounter" in the lake. They turned into drowned tiger cubs and were carried back by Jian Xiaonian, who was also wet.
Zai Zai has been very afraid of the big tiger ever since Liu Yu was about to snatch his precious copper ball. When Liu Yu was standing under the steps just now, it opened its small mouth to reveal its small fangs, while looking at yesterday before it was too late to take it back. , Small copper balls scattered in the yard, for fear that someone will not give up.
But after they thought about it for a while, they found that Jian Xiaonian was still in the same posture just now, standing motionless at the door, with his head down and he didn't know what he was looking at.
"Wooooow~" Obediently stood on his hind legs, with his front paws resting on his chest, he stretched his neck and leaned over to rub Jian Xiaonian's chin.
Feeling the little guy's icy soft nose tip and the fluff on his face, Jian Xiaonian smiled wryly.
——Although it was the truth, he just said some messy things to Liu Yu... Shouldn't he swear a poisonous oath and show his loyalty at this time? !
……
Prince Yu returned to the Prince Regent's Mansion, and left the mansion the next morning, and then did not return for nearly a month. To the people outside, it was not surprising.
Doctor Jian's crisis was obviously over, because the guards inside and outside Wan Feng's courtyard were removed after Liu Yu left.
He can do things in the medicine house again, and even walk around in the palace, everything seems to be back to normal.
Whether it's because of good character or to save his life, Prince Yu believes that Dr. Jian will keep his mouth shut. They are still kind and gentle doctors and highly cooperative patients.
The incense stones prepared by Doctor Jian are delivered to Prince Yu by the people in the palace on time every five days.
Deliberately not thinking about this person, taking care of the new seedlings in the nursery, making essential oils, and playing with the little tiger every day, the days are easy to pass.
But when Jian Xiaonian knew that Liu Yu's "illness" had worsened, and even almost fell off the horse because he hadn't slept for ten days, he immediately told Jiang Changshi, who came to "tip the news", that he would go to the school again.
