I became the leopard cub of the paranoid emperor

Lonely, Lonely, Lonely...

Luo Bai said the word silently in his heart, but he didn't know what it meant.He caught up with Bu Qingfeng who was going out, and asked, "Brother Bald—"

"Brother bald? His name is Master Bu." Bu Qingfeng hurriedly followed Chu Yuzhao with his monk robes in his hands.

"Understood, Master Bu." Luo Bai said humbly.

Bu Qingfeng asked: "What's the matter?"

Luo Bai asked: "Master Bu, do you know what it means to be lonely?"

Bu Qingfeng looked at Chu Yuzhao in front of him, shook his head and said, "I don't know, you can ask someone else."

Seeing that there was no one else around, Luo Bai murmured: "Okay, since you asked me to ask His Majesty, I will ask."

"Why are you just talking nonsense? When did I ask you to ask His Majesty?" Bu Qingfeng's face changed in horror, "OK, OK, I'll tell you, don't ask around. I'm lonely, It means being alone."

"Lonely—"

"I just lost all my relatives, mother, brother, etc." Bu Qingfeng interrupted him in a low voice, "That's it, don't ask any more."

Luo Bai really didn't ask any more questions, but only looked at the back of Chu Yuzhao in front of him thoughtfully.

Bu Qingfeng thought to himself that a fool's thoughts could not be judged by normal people's thinking, so seeing his expression made him feel terrified, and told him not to ask any more questions.

"I already know the meaning, so I won't ask again." Luo Bai promised.

When they boarded the carriage back to the palace, there were only Luo Bai and Chu Yuzhao sitting in the carriage.Chu Yuzhao stared fixedly out of the car window, with his hands resting on the seat beside him.

Luo Bai moved towards him, and lightly covered the back of his hand with one hand. He felt his right hand move slightly, so he quickly clenched it and pressed it.

"Brother." He called, and saw Chu Yuzhao's eyelashes tremble.

"Brother." Luo Bai pressed closer, leaning closer to his ear, as if whispering: "You are not alone, you still have me. I will always be with you, always by your side."

Luo Bai's voice was very soft, but his tone was very solemn. After speaking, he took Chu Yuzhao's hand and pressed the back of his hand to his face.

Chu Yuzhao turned his head, his eyes fell on his face, his eyes were a little dazed, but he didn't pull his hand out immediately.

Luo Bai rubbed his face against the back of that hand again, and smiled at Chu Yuzhao.

He didn't know that his eyes were full of envy, and he also had undisguised trust and dependence.Chu Yuzhao looked at him firmly, and asked in a low voice, "Will you always be with me?"

"I'll be with you all the time." Luo Bai replied without hesitation.

Chu Yuzhao stared at him for another moment, with a complex expression that Luo Bai could not understand, and said after a while: "Do you know what this means? If you want to stay with me forever, it is this life. Except death, I won't give you a chance to go back on your word."

In this life... Luo Bai's eyes lit up, is there such a good thing?

Only fools regret it.

I am not a fool.

"I won't regret it." Luo Bai replied flatly: "Elvis Presley must mean what he says."

Chu Yuzhao didn't make a sound, his cold and solemn eyes would make anyone feel chills, but Luo Bai didn't realize it, and smiled at him.

The carriage swayed, and the light from outside the curtain came in, painting Chu Yuzhao's face in light and dark colors.He lightly stroked Luo Bai's neck with his thumb, and after a while he replied with a short word: "Okay."

After returning to the palace, Luo Bai officially moved into Qiande Palace.

Eunuch Cheng didn't inquire about Chu Yuzhao's intention for such an arrangement, but only instructed the little eunuch to decorate the empty room next to him.

"Didn't I live with my brother? I want to live with him." Although the vacant room was right next to Chu Yuzhao's bedroom, Luo Bai was not satisfied, "What's the difference between living in Yuqing Palace and me? It's so far away."

Eunuch Cheng raised his eyes to see Chu Yuzhao's face, saw that he was just standing by the window looking into the distance, and did not say anything to stop him, so he changed his mind, and immediately said: "Then old slave, go and arrange the green gauze cabinet for you."

But Chu Yuzhao said lightly at this time: "No, just clean up the northeast corner and put another bed."

"Northeast corner?" Eunuch Cheng was startled at first, and then happily replied: "Hey, pack it up and put a bed, this old slave is going."

The northeast corner is where Chu Yuzhao imprisoned himself when he was suffering from pain. Eunuch Cheng ordered the iron chains on the wall to be removed, and a carved wooden bed was brought in and placed there.

This bed is very close to the dragon bed, and there is only a screen in between, but Luo Bai is still not satisfied.

"Can you remove the screen and put the two beds together?"

Chu Yuzhao glanced at him, and Luo Bai changed his tune again: "Okay, okay, it's fine like this."

Eunuch Cheng arranged everything properly, and only after he left the house did he think of a question: The emperor does not choose concubines now, but after all, he must have people around him.Luo Bai also lives in that room, what's the matter?

But the emperor made it clear that he didn't want to choose a concubine now, so let's talk about it later.

What's more, even though he has served the emperor for many years, he still doesn't understand what he really thinks about Luo Bai.

Not daring to think too deeply, Eunuch Cheng shook his head and left.

There is only one wardrobe in the room, which occupies a large part of the wall.Luo Bai had already brought his burden from Yuqing Palace, and it was spread on the bed right now.He didn't let the waiter do it, and hung the clothes in the closet by himself.

He didn't have many clothes, except for two newly made long gowns, which were two ordinary long gowns when he first entered the palace, and a few old gowns that were washed white from the wash.

Luo Bai straightened his clothes and hung them seriously in the closet, together with those few old gray robes.After hanging up, he looked at Chu Yuzhao's uniform black robes on the left, and his own clothes on the right, took them out again, and hung them among the black robes.

"My clothes will be next to my brother's." He said happily.

After Yuan Fu heard the news, he felt mixed feelings. He sat in the courtyard of Yuqing Palace, looked at Luo Bai who was eating grapes, and sighed: "Your Majesty values ​​you, this is your blessing, but as the saying goes Like a tiger, who can tell what will happen after this? What's more, I'm really afraid of your temper, what if one day angers His Majesty?"

"No, His Majesty likes me to accompany him." Luo Bai sighed pretendingly, "Since he likes it, what can I do? Of course I can only accompany him."

Yuan Fu glanced at him with a smile on his face.

"Aunt Yuanfu, do you want to live in Qiande Palace with me?" Luo Bai stuffed a grape into Yuanfu's mouth.

Yuan Fu chewed on the grapes and said, "You are going to serve His Majesty, and I am going to serve you. How can that be? You can just stay in Qiande Palace, be diligent with your hands and feet, and have work in your eyes. Grinding ink and serving tea These things need not be ordered to be done.”

Luo Bai nodded seriously: "I'm very diligent, whenever I see pouring tea and grinding ink, I rush to do it."

"Well, that's fine." Yuan Fu said comfortingly: "This Yuqing Palace is still your palace under the name, so I'll just live here and take care of this Yuqing Palace."

He had nothing to do on weekdays, so he opened up the barren grass behind the Yuqing Palace and planted vegetables. A large piece of cabbage, lettuce, cowpea and eggplant grew, and he was really reluctant to move to Qiande Palace.

"Well, well, then I will come back to accompany you as long as I am free." Luo Bai said.

Yuan Fu felt good, and stretched out his hands to pinch his pinkish-white cheeks.

This action reminded Luo Bai of his mother, and his expression darkened: "Aunt Yuanfu, why hasn't my mother come to see me yet? I miss her a little."

Yuan Fu didn't dare to tell the truth, so he just said vaguely: "Your mother must be delayed by something, don't worry, I will come to see you later."

Time can dilute everything, Luo Bai misses his mother, and as he reminisces, he will eventually forget it and never mention it again.

The sunshine was very good, and the window of the study was facing a tall pear tree, on which a bird's nest was built at some time, and occasionally two swallows would come in and out.

Luo Bai was wearing a white long gown embroidered with dark patterns of silver thread and a small jade crown. He was sitting in front of a small desk, writing his name clumsily on the rice paper with a brush.The characters were of different sizes and the strokes were crooked, but he wrote them very seriously.

Chu Yuzhao arranged a teacher for him, and he had to attend classes for an hour every morning.After a few days, it's not like there is no progress at all, at least he has also learned to write the word Luo Bai.

"Why don't I call me Baibai, I want to be called Luobai." He put the brush on the pen stand, and shook his sore right wrist, "Brother, can I change my name to Baibai from today?"

"Not good." A cold voice came from the side.

Next to Luo Bai's small desk, there is a large desk next to it, which is full of memorials.Chu Yuzhao was sitting behind the big book case, reading the memorial with downcast eyes.

"Why can't I be called Baibai?" Luo Bai pouted and asked.

"Because your father's surname is Luo." Chu Yuzhao replied without raising his head.

"Why do you want to follow that bad surname Luo Wanliu?" Luo Bai rolled his eyes, "Can I follow my mother's surname?"

Chu Yuzhao raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then turned his head and continued to review the memorial, but asked, "Snow White?"

"That's right, Xuebai, I like Xuebai, how nice it sounds." Luo Bai stretched out his arms, and handed over his piece of rice paper, "Brother, write down my new name, and write the word Xuebai."

Chu Yuzhao looked at the rice paper covering the memorial, and finally picked up the ink brush, and quickly wrote two large characters of snow and white on the paper.

"Brother's handwriting is really good." Luo Bai took it back happily, and after carefully studying the name, his face collapsed: "... so many strokes, it will take me at least ten days to write it out."

The pen in Chu Yuzhao's hand paused, and then continued to review.

Luo Bai repeatedly compared the characters Luo and Xue, and finally muttered: "Forget it, forget it, my name is Luo Bai."

Luo Bai continued to write, and the room returned to silence, only hearing the wind blowing the leaves and the slight rustling sound of the pen tip falling on the paper, it seemed even more peaceful and serene.

It's just that the silence didn't last long, and Luo Bai started to sway from side to side again. Although he didn't make any movement, it attracted Chu Yuzhao who was next to him to glance at him.

"What's moving again?"

"My feet hurt so much, I need to rest for a while and write again."

Chu Yuzhao asked, "Why do your writing feet hurt?"

Luo Bai scratched his face, and replied seriously: "Because when I write, my toes are also exerting force, and it hurts when I write too much."

Chu Yuzhao sighed lightly: "Then what do you want?"

When he looked at people, his eyes were very focused, his eyes were dark, and Luo Bai saw a small self in those pupils.

Luo Bai made a series of mouth shapes, but did not make a sound. Chu Yuzhao frowned and said, "What are you talking about?"

Luo Bai repeated his mouth shape again.

"Speak out loudly, what kind of sneaky words are you talking about?" Chu Yuzhao said.

Luo Bai could only say: "I want to go out and play for a while."

He got up today and went to class with his master, and was detained by Chu Yuzhao to write in the study after lunch. He was indeed a little dizzy.

Chu Yuzhao didn't say anything, he just turned his head and picked up a memorial to read. Luo Bai knew that it was right, but he didn't dare to be overjoyed, so he put the brush into the pen holder calmly, and put it away again. The rice paper on the table, then got up and walked out.

When he could go out to play before, he ran out in a hurry without taking the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and would be stopped by Chu Yuzhao, who not only had to tidy up the table, but also wrote another letter as a punishment.

"Then I'll go out to play for a while, don't worry, I will come back to accompany you soon."

After Luo Bai finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and slowly walked outside the room.When passing by Chu Yuzhao's desk, he suddenly saw a futon-sized white round object at his feet, and couldn't help but bent down curiously to look at it.

It looked like a round cushion made of white fur, but a piece was sunken in the middle, which looked a bit strange.Luo Bai had never seen this thing in the room before, and this was the first time he saw it, and it should have been brought in by the palace maid.

"Brother, what is this?" Luo Bai asked.

"Huh?" Chu Yuzhao asked a monosyllabic question indifferently.

"That round dimple at your feet."

Chu Yuzhao looked down at his feet, and said flatly, "Didn't you hit the mark?"

"What did I say?"

"It's just a nest."

Luo Bai's heart suddenly became vigilant, and immediately asked: "Who are you preparing this nest for?"

"Well, yes." Chu Yuzhao was attracted by the memorial in his hand, didn't pay attention to his question at all, and replied perfunctorily.

"Who are you preparing the nest for?" Luo Bai's voice was a little hurried, but it still didn't attract Chu Yuzhao's attention.

"Well, yes." Chu Yuzhao continued to perfunctory.

The next moment, the memorial in his hand was suddenly taken away.

Chu Yuzhao had never been taken away from the memorial, he raised his eyes in astonishment, and met Luo Bai's sullen face.

Luo Bai slapped the memorial on the desk, then bent down to pick up the round dimples at Chu Yuzhao's feet, and shook them a few times in front of him.

"Who is this nest for? For whom?" Luo Bai asked angrily.

Chu Yuzhao's expression gradually turned cold, and he just looked at Luo Bai without saying a word.

Whenever he showed such an expression, even if Luo Bai was insane, he would restrain himself a little and dare not make mistakes.But it was different now, he was burning with jealousy, he just felt sour and swelled in his heart, and he just wanted to make a mistake.

What's more, he has already discovered that even though Chu Yuzhao slapped him down, he never really punished him—at least he never whipped his ass with a cane—this also made him more and more popular in front of Chu Yuzhao. The more daring.

"Who shameless are you making this nest for?"

Luo Bai's voice was full of anger, and his thin eyelids turned red, and he looked very excited.

After Chu Yuzhao heard these words, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his expression became a little strange.

Luo Bai was short of breath, his chest rose and fell, his face was flushed red, and he looked anxious, but he stubbornly held the round dimple and shook it in the air for Chu Yuzhao to see.

"Okay, you actually made a nest for that stinky shameless person, what else do I not know?"

Those aunts in the village, holding flowery clothes that came out of nowhere, would say this when questioning those slumped uncles.
