The Minister of Personnel, Gu Ci, and the Minister of War, Zhou Wenwu, spent the entire afternoon persuading the Duke of Huguo.
"My lord, you must remember this: your son is your own, don't you know his character? As for the women outside, just listen to what they say."
"Yes, Duke Protector of the Nation, once the heir gives you a big, healthy grandson, you can enjoy your retirement in peace!"
The Duke of Huguo also felt that the embarrassing incident at noon was a disgrace to his family.
At that moment, he felt a surge of anger and really wanted to beat that kid to death.
Yan'er will always be his woman!
"Minister Gu, Minister Zhou, I know, don't worry."
...
"What? We're taking Big Meow to court tomorrow?"
Shen Mingzhu looked at her father and asked in surprise.
Shen Changyuan remained calm and collected, looking as if he really wanted to take his feline overlord out to broaden his horizons.
"Yes, Mingzhu. I feel that I have a special connection with the cat. I plan to take it to court tomorrow so that my it can also experience the grandeur of our Great Yan Dynasty."
Shen Qinghong: He hasn't even entered officialdom yet!
Shen Qingbo: Humans are inferior to cats!
Shen Mingzhu looked at her mother, then at her father, and nodded.
"Dad, you need to take good care of the cat tomorrow. It's very fierce and can get angry!"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
Shen Changyuan was very happy.
The task assigned by His Majesty has finally been completed!
It was worth it for him to buy a whole truckload of catnip for this feline overlord that afternoon to strengthen their bond.
That evening, Shen's mother specially found a basket, lined with soft bedding and thick catnip, which would be the cat's exclusive cradle for tomorrow.
That night, everyone in Shengjing slept soundly.
Especially Crown Prince Yan Beichen, imagining his fiancée Shen Mingzhu's two-faced nature, he smiled and dreamed of meeting her again!
At the palace gate, Shen Changyuan greeted his colleagues, carrying a basket in his hand.
"Good morning, Lord Zhou. This is Shen Piaoliang from our Marquis's residence, courtesy name Da Miao, also known as Master Miao!"
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Look how beautiful it is!"
"So beautiful! No wonder she's called Shen Piao Liang! She's obviously born to be adorable!"
"Yes, yes! Lord Gu, you're right. It is my daughter's precious pet, she cherishes it very much."
"Oh, Mr. Shen, you have excellent taste! It's so beautiful! And the name is lovely too!"
Shen Changyuan carried the cat around so everyone could get to know it before calling Shen Mingzhu down. The two of them and the cat went to court together.
Upon arriving at court, Emperor Jingyuan saw the beautiful feline master.
The "kitten" that is snow-white with a touch of pink is so adorable it melts your heart.
Emperor Jingyuan seemed quite pleased with the cat, and had Wang Defu bring it up to look at it several times, praising it profusely before finally letting it return to Shen Changyuan's side.
[Guagua, why do you think my dad brought our cat to court?]
[Host, is it that your dad lacks a sense of security and wants the cat to protect him but doesn't want to say it directly?]
My father is a marquis and the Minister of Revenue. Don't let his usual gentle and weak appearance fool you; he actually knows a bit of martial arts and isn't as weak as he looks!
[Host, you don't understand! You have a protective spirit jade, but your father doesn't! With your feline master his your side, he can go anywhere with peace of mind.]
[All right. ]
Shen Changyuan felt quite helpless.
He's so frail!
He's really amazing!
Mingzhu also thinks he's very capable that she didn't give him protective jade!
Snort!
My daughter has turned into a smelly baby!
Before he knew it, the cat woke up, got bored, and slipped out to play by itself!
Inside the Yikun Palace in the inner palace.
Today is the day that the Second Prince Yan Yunxuan takes a concubine. Although she is a concubine, she is still a concubine listed in the Imperial Jade Tablet. Because of Shen Jiaojiao's "good luck" and Yan Yunxuan's favor, Consort Li still attaches great importance to her.
They've been preparing for this since early this morning.
After breakfast, Empress Lin also bestowed gifts, showing great respect.
Sure enough, Consort Shu, Consort De, and Consort Hui, upon hearing the news, all came to Yikun Palace in person to present congratulatory gifts.
"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Your Highness!"
People are in high spirits when they have a happy occasion!
Consort Li was radiant and very happy today.
Seeing that her "sisters" in the harem were all very respectful in bringing her gifts, her smile deepened.
They're smart to be sensible.
Consort Li, Su Bao'er, held a Persian cat, revealing a hint of pride.
"Huh? Where did this little kitten come from? It's so cute!"
When Consort De saw the cat, her eyes lit up; she was very fond of it!
"Is this the new pet that Consort Yang has adopted? It's so beautiful, and all pink!"
Consort Hui looked at the feline master with intense gaze, her eyes filled with admiration and amazement.
Consort Shu stepped forward and spoke gently.
"The one in Yikun Palace must be the Imperial Concubine! Right? Imperial Concubine, sister?"
Su Bao'er was genuinely fond of the suddenly appearing feline overlord, and her eyes immediately lit up when the three of them mentioned it.
"A pet that enters my Yikun Palace is definitely mine. I guess it's a surprise that Xuan'er specially gave to me."
Consort Li, Su Bao'er, thought for a moment. Empress Lin never kept pets. Apart from her, she was the most powerful person in the entire harem. Naturally, any pets that entered Yikun Palace would belong to her.
Meow~
"Wow, you're really good at making noises!"
Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.
In the Golden Palace, Shen Changyuan suddenly realized that his cat master was missing. He was so anxious that he was like a monkey running around, looking here and there, turning his head to look again.
As a result, there was no sign of the feline overlord at all.
Shen Changyuan: My cat, where are you?
Shen Mingzhu went to bed late last night and is currently taking a nap.
Suddenly, the system shouted.
[Host, host! Oh my, oh my! Our feline master is wreaking havoc in the harem, not even putting the Imperial Guards in his eyes! Amazing!]
Shen Changyuan was so anxious he almost jumped up. His feline master couldn't be hurt!
Shen Mingzhu wasn't in a hurry at all and asked slowly.
[Guagua, who upset the cat? It's usually very well-behaved!]
[Aaaaaah!!! Host, the cat is angry! It killed all the koi in Consort Li's pond!]
Consort Li wants to beat the cat master to death!
The system's deafening voice rang out, and all the ministers fell silent!
[Aaaaaah!!! Host, the cat master is furious and burned off Consort Li's hair!!!]
Minister Su Qingshan closed his eyes once again!
Suddenly, the entire hall fell eerily quiet!
[Aaaaaah!!! Host, the cat master is furious! She burned two Imperial Guards bald and slammed them onto the artificial hill!!!]
Crown Prince Yan Beichen's eyes were filled with complex emotions. Looking at Shen Mingzhu's sleepy appearance, he felt that she was really cute.
[Aaaaaah!!! Host, the feline overlord is furious and has burned down the rare animal park! All the birds and beasts there are trembling with fear and dare not move an inch!!!]
[Guagua, stop yelling!!! You're disturbing me! I just want to know what's going on with my dad!]
[Host, what do you mean, "What about your dad?" Well, whatever!]
Shen Changyuan: Daughter, that's your pet!
