"Were you the ones who have been bidding the price?" Xie Zhiyan's face was not very good. He didn't care about the money, but he was not happy to let the little tiger stay in the cage all the time.

Xiaobai kept looking at the little tiger, his heart almost bursting out.

"This..." Boss Zhao was sweating, "So it turns out that the young master wanted this tiger."

"Nonsense!" Xie Zhiyan shouted, "If I didn't want this tiger, why would I bother with you guys? Hurry up and take that card away from me."

Boss Zhao made a gesture and said with an apologetic smile, "Yes, yes, we'll leave now."

Are you kidding? They didn't dare to compete with Xie Zhiyan. Although Xie Zhiyan was a little boy, he was the most favored child in the Annan Palace and the prince loved him very much.

Even the one in the capital loved him very much.

After Boss Zhao and the others stopped bidding, the little tiger soon fell into Xie Zhiyan's hands.

Xie Zhiyan asked someone to pay the silver, and then took the little tiger out of the cage.

The little tiger was very frightened at first because there were so many people and it was afraid.

But when it smelled the familiar smell, it was not so scared anymore.

"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue." Ye Xunbai stroked the little tiger's fur and said softly, "Don't be afraid. You can go home with us now."

The little tiger cried out, not very loud, but sounded like a crow.

As soon as he returned to the palace, Xie Zhiyan began to arrange a nest for the little tiger. He asked someone to make the cat's nest bigger and then stuffed the little tiger in it.

Tiger cubs that are a few months old can eat meat, but they also need to drink some milk. Coincidentally, a dog in the palace had given birth to puppies, so Xie Zhiyan let the dog serve as the tiger cubs' wet nurse.

Although he brought the little tiger back, Ye Xunqing still didn't want Ye Xunbai to have too much contact with the little guy.

First of all, the little tiger must have a lot of parasites on its body. Secondly, he was worried that Xiaobai had invested too much emotion in the little tiger and would not want to be separated from it in the future.

However, his brother had no say in the child's growth. Ye Xunbai liked the little tiger very much and raised it with Xie Zhiyan from morning to night.

The old man in the mansion said that a tiger is not a cat or a dog, it is a wild beast. If you want it to be obedient, you have to pull out its teeth and claws.

Ye Xunbai was unwilling and cried, saying that he wanted to keep Xiaoxue's claws and teeth, and held it tightly.

Xiaoxue is very smart and can tell who is good to it.

The young tiger licked Ye Xunbai's hand and snuggled in his arms without moving.

But they couldn't stay here for too long, because Xie Hui and the others had to set out to find Xie Lingyin.

Ye Xunbai and Xie Zhiyan have been playing with the little white tiger these days and are reluctant to part with their new little friend.

Seeing that he didn't want to leave, Ye Xunqing asked, "Xiaobai, the brothers are going home. Do you want to stay here or go home with them?"

"I want to go home with my brother." Ye Xunbai was in a dilemma. "But what about Brother Zhizhi and Xiaoxue? Xiaoxue will cry if she can't see me."

Xie Zhiyan said from the side: "I will cry if I can't see you."

Ye Xunqing thought that Xie Hui would bring Xie Zhiyan with him, but he might not bring the little tiger with him. Who would take a pet out for no reason?

Ye Xunbai was in a dilemma. "Xiaoxue can't go home with us, and Brother Xiaoyan can't go home with us either, right?"

Mo Yuyan definitely couldn't leave anymore. He found his father and sister, and his father was sick, so he had to stay and take care of them.

As for this little tiger, it is quite troublesome to take it with you, but it is not completely impossible to take it away.

"I'll think of a solution." Feng Jingheng said, "Xiaobai, do you really want to raise this little tiger? Then you can't eat snacks anymore, and the money you save can be used to feed Xiaoxue."

Ye Xunbai didn't hesitate at all, "Okay, I won't eat snacks anymore."

Seeing that he really wanted to take the little tiger with him, Ye Xunqing shamelessly went to find Xie Hui.

Unexpectedly, Xie Hui didn't care about this at all. "It's just a little tiger. As long as you're not afraid of it getting lost, just take it with you. Besides, the third child likes this little thing very much. If I don't take it with me, he will make a fuss in the middle of the night, and I really can't conjure up another one for him."

Ye Xunqing admired Xie Hui's doting on his child very much. At the same time, he also understood why Xie Zhiyan had such a personality. It must be because of his spoiling.

Putting himself in Xie Hui's shoes, Ye Xunqing could also understand Xie Hui's attitude.

The youngest child in the family must be the most spoiled, and Ye Qing himself is one of them.

Xiaoxue hasn't lived in a cage since she left Qibaofang, so it's impossible to put her in a cage on this trip.

But a tiger cub of this age will become very naughty after becoming familiar with the environment. It is still a question whether it can stay quietly with the two children.

On the day of going out, Xie Hui was very low-key and set off in the early morning, but he was the only one who left with Xie Zhiyan. Xie Zhixing and Zhao Huaixin did not leave.

Xie Zhixing stayed behind to handle the affairs of the palace, while Zhao Huaixin stayed behind to perform the duties of the prince. Of course, he did this in private, and on the surface, Xie Zhixing was still the one in charge.

Normally, Xie Hui could not leave Pingzhou City without the emperor's edict. If he really wanted to leave, he had to leave Zhao Huaixin behind to guard the door.

This is the rule set by the emperor for the two of them.

Heading southwest, they arrived at the place where Ye Xunqing and his friends met Huahua in a few days.

To Ye Xunqing's surprise, Huahua was still following the old couple to sell tea.

Ye Xunqing and his friends stopped to rest and asked Huahua a few questions.

Huahua still recognized them, and when she saw them come back, she happily offered them tea.

Ye Xunqing pulled her over to him and asked, "Huahua, is your father not back yet?"

Huahua frowned. "Father came back once, but he left again yesterday morning. He said he hadn't found Mom and Brother yet and wanted to go look for them again."

Ye Xunqing was very surprised. Could it be that they had mistaken the person?

"What's your father's name?" Feng Jingheng asked.

Huahua didn't know her father's name, but the old couple knew.

The old woman wiped her hands and said, "His surname is Zhang, and his name is Ji. I really don't know what to say to this child. He came back the night before last, left some things for Huahua, and then went out again. He still has to go find his wife and son."

Ye Xunqing and Feng Jingheng had complicated expressions. Zhang Ji had indeed returned. The things he left behind should be silver. He entrusted the child to the care of the neighbors, and he himself might have gone to seek revenge.

The old woman continued, "Zhang Ji was a very good child, and his wife was also very good, and they had a very good relationship. But why did he disappear?"

Huahua twisted her clothes with her hands, "Mother..."

Ye Xunqing felt a pang of pain in his heart. He held Huahua in his arms to comfort her, "Don't cry. Your father and the others will definitely come back."

After Xie Hui listened carefully, he almost understood the whole story. He called a guard over and whispered a few words in his ear. The guard then rode away on horseback.
