Stay calm, don't panic, Her Royal Highness the Princess is going to reveal more news
Chapter 152 The fish pond owner's fish pond was poisoned
What black widow and what female praying mantis? The emperor felt a chill when he heard these descriptions.
He resisted the urge to smell his own scent and was about to change his clothes when he heard someone reporting outside.
"Your Majesty, Hua Li came to visit and said that it was a matter of great importance to your safety."
This news was delivered by Eunuch Cheng himself, which shows how much importance he attaches to it.
If it were before, the emperor would definitely not believe it, but the emperor, who had just been scared by the little guy, had a dark face and asked Eunuch Cheng to bring him in.
It is rare to see a man from outside the palace in Qifeng.
Hua Li looked straight ahead and walked in, kowtowed and bowed politely.
"Get up, Eunuch Cheng said you have something important to say about my safety. What is it that bothers you to come at this hour?"
The emperor has complicated feelings towards Hua Li.
Now that I'm staying in Dachen, it's hard to say what my future arrangements will be.
"Your Majesty, Hua Li observed the sky at night and found that the Purple Star was dim. I am afraid that someone is trying to tarnish the Emperor Star, so I came to warn you."
"Your Majesty, the change in the stars started today. You can think about whether something strange happened today."
Hua Li was neither humble nor arrogant. He raised his head slightly, but his eyes were looking down.
And that line of sight happened to meet that of the little brat Ji Qionghua.
Ji Qionghua, nestling in the Queen's arms, was yawning with tears in the corners of her eyes.
She rubbed her eyes, ignored the confusion in Hua Li's eyes, and pulled the queen's sleeve and played like an ordinary child.
"Your Majesty, do you remember this morning when you were walking in the Imperial Garden..."
Eunuch Cheng hesitated for a while and asked.
He followed the emperor all day and was very clear about all the changes, big and small, around him.
At the time he mentioned, when he passed by the pond in the Imperial Garden, he saw many carps with their stomachs turned upside down, frozen on the water surface.
The water temperature is low in winter, so it is normal that fish sometimes freeze to death.
But now I think it’s not right.
The Imperial Garden is taken care of every day. The temperature has been almost the same in the past two days. How come all the koi fish that were fine yesterday were frozen to death?
Maybe it's a bad omen.
Eunuch Cheng was not in a position to speak directly.
After being reminded of this, the emperor couldn't help but worry.
Since ancient times, emperors disliked so-called warnings from heaven the most.
[What? All the koi in the lotus pond froze to death? ]
An exclamation broke the cold air around the emperor.
When he looked over, he saw Ji Qionghua biting her glutinous rice teeth, her little face red with anger.
He heard that earlier, Qiong Huaer liked to watch fish there.
[I haven't tasted the koi fish specially provided by the palace yet. ]
[I have raised them to be plump and white, how disappointing! ]
Ji Qionghua had a stern face and looked very unhappy.
[That's not right. There were eighty-eight koi fish in the lotus pond, and a bunch of other fish. Did they all freeze to death overnight? ]
Who believes this?
【Fuck your bad omen.】
[I am so angry. Someone poisoned my fish pond and killed so many fish. ]
[Is it easy for me to raise fish with all my hard work? 】
[If I can't be the Sea King, why don't you let me be a fish pond owner! ]
[Damn drug dealers.]
The emperor also understood the general idea of the machine-gun-like complaints.
The fish was poisoned to death.
The emperor sympathized with the fish, but his mood also eased a lot.
"Your Majesty, I remember the sound of a flock of swallows chirping outside the room when you were in the imperial study this afternoon."
Eunuch Cheng continued to investigate.
In folk culture, swallows often symbolize good luck and fortune.
Don't forget that swallows are typical migratory birds.
As spring comes and autumn goes, swallows are rarely seen in the capital in winter.
Suddenly a large group of swallows appeared, right where the emperor was working. There must be something fishy going on.
Hua Li saw the exchange of glances between the master and servant. There was a faint smile on the corners of his mouth beneath the mask, and his whole aura was cold but not irritating.
So, does Hua Li really have some abilities?
The emperor was also thinking about it.
[Ha, isn’t that the family that raises swallows in Beijing whose swallow nest was robbed by Huahua? ]
Huahua is a tabby cat with extremely high fighting power. In the cat world of Beijing, it is the king of cats.
There is already little food in winter, and Huahua is a stray cat with a large group of cat followers following him, so of course he has to find food.
So they took out someone else's swallow's nest.
The key point is that the swallows are raised by humans and have lost their wildness.
Being released, it dares not fly high or far.
[Huahua drove so many swallows here because she wanted to feed them to me.]
【Thank you. 】
In Huahua's eyes, Ji Qionghua is a human cub, and cubs often need to be hunted and fed by the elders of the tribe.
But Ji Qionghua eats and drinks well and refuses to eat swallows raw.
Huahua, who was rejected by Chou, took Bubai and a group of cats to "hunt down" the group of swallows in the palace.
Because of the little princess's preference, there are now cats and dogs everywhere in the palace, and most of the time the guards don't care.
However, the imperial study has a special status and no outsiders are allowed to enter, let alone cats, dogs, and flowers.
But the swallows have grown wings.
After they flew over and found themselves safe, they hovered over that place and refused to leave.
【This is a wise bird in nature. 】
There was a rustling noise coming from the corner.
When everyone looked over, they saw Bubai lying in the corner, fiddling with a poor swallow with his claws.
The swallow was hit by the dog's paw and felt dizzy, and it didn't even dare to flap its wings.
【It’s been played badly! 】
Ji Qionghua sighed, and the emperor's eyes twitched, and he signaled for people to let the poor swallow go.
Well, he was overthinking it again.
But as a result, the emperor looked at Hua Li with suspicion.
He is probably trying to catch a dead mouse by chance.
"Your Majesty, Hua Li asked for divination before coming here, and the divination said that this difficulty is related to rouge."
Hua Li gave a reminder.
Rouge is an object, but it can also refer to a woman.
This reminded him of the female mantis in Qiong Huaer's mouth just now. His eyes were urgent and his aura was radiating as he pressed towards Hua Li.
"Hua Li, do you know what crime it is to speak nonsense in front of me?"
The emperor's majesty made Hua Li bow his head.
"Hua Li knows, and Hua Li is willing to guarantee it with her life."
The resounding answer made the emperor suddenly smile.
"Now that I think about it, I actually met a rouge beauty on my way to Qifeng Palace."
There are countless women with outstanding looks in the harem.
Even the lowest-ranking palace maids mostly had pretty features.
The emperor did not care much for women, and when he occasionally met some palace maids with ulterior motives, he would look upon them coldly.
The reason why the emperor was impressed by this person today was that he had physical contact with him.
He looked at his wrist.
After feeling around with his fingers for a few times, he saw Qiong Huaer's strange eyes falling on his wrist.
The emperor's eyes were quite obscure.
"On the way here, I met a palace maid who suddenly appeared. It was a dark winter night, and the road was frozen in the wind and frost."
"She slipped, and I helped her up."
At that time, he was coming to Qifeng Palace with a eunuch named Cheng, and they ran into each other head-on at the corner.
In a hurry, he helped the man up.
The other party knelt down and begged for mercy with great fear and trepidation, and did not engage in any other unusual behavior or words.
