Chapter 160: Feelings Are Changeable, but Reason Is Hard to Forget

When Li Xuan landed, he was already more than ten feet away from the purple bamboo.

But Princess Yuan An ran over and caught up with him immediately, her little face flushed with excitement.

"Little black cat, what a great little black cat!"

"You can actually fly a kite!"

Princess Yuan An widened her bright eyes and stared at Li Xuan, as if she was looking at the rarest treasure in the world.

Although Li Xuan was still having fun, the kite belonged to someone else after all.

After he came down, he checked the kite and found it was safe, so he held it in his mouth and returned it to Princess Yuan An.

After Princess Yuan An took the kite, she wanted to touch Li Xuan like a madman, but was avoided without a sound.

Li Xuan let Princess Yuan An go and said hello to Bai Xiao who was also chasing after him.

"Meow? (Nothing else, right?)"

"Meow, meow! (No, crab!)"

Bai Xiao raised his tail high, rubbed against Li Xuan for a while, and thanked him in a coquettish voice.

Li Xuan couldn't help but be amused by this guy.

"Cats who know how to act like a spoiled child are lucky."

Seeing that everything was fine, Li Xuan said hello and prepared to leave with Fatty Orange.

But Princess Yuan An suddenly stopped them and said anxiously: "Wait, wait!"

"These are for you, just as my thank you gift."

Princess Yuan An took a small bag from her waist.

She opened the bag and took out a few palm-sized pieces of fish jerky from it. The salty and fragrant smell immediately emanated, and there was a hint of salty and wet sea.

Princess Yuan An took a piece first and fed it to Bai Xiao, who couldn't wait to bite it and chewed it.

After Princess Yuan An demonstrated it once, she looked at Li Xuan and Fatty Orange with the fish jerky in her hand and slowly stretched it over.

Fat Orange couldn't walk for a moment, and swallowed his saliva, but didn't act rashly, but looked at Li Xuan beside him.

Li Xuan saw Bai Xiao eating happily, so he nodded, and Fat Orange took it with his mouth.

"Little black cat, don't you want to eat?"

Princess Yuan An saw that Li Xuan didn't come to take it, and asked eagerly.

Li Xuan had eaten Zhao Feng's snake gall before, and now his stomach and mouth are cold, and he has no appetite.

I didn't feel that the snake gall was anything special just now, but now I find that it still has some aftereffects.

But Li Xuan still didn't feel any signs of strengthening his body.

Seeing that Li Xuan didn't eat, Princess Yuan An was a little disappointed.

But she immediately pushed the whole small bag in front of Li Xuan.

"Here, all for you."

Then she picked up the fish jerky in her hand and took a bite herself.

"It can be eaten by humans, as a snack."

"Take it back and let Sister Ankang have a taste."

Princess Yuanan was not very familiar with her sister, but simply wanted to get closer to Li Xuan.

In the past, when she took out these fish jerky, the kittens were always fascinated.

After eating, she let her do whatever she wanted and touch it however she wanted.

But Li Xuan's indifference made Princess Yuanan a little frustrated, and she felt that Li Xuan was extraordinary.

The restlessness that the more you can't get, the more you want to get it, burned in Princess Yuanan's heart.

When he heard that people can also be eaten as snacks, Li Xuan did not refuse this time, and held the small bag of fish jerky handed over by Princess Yuanan.

Princess Yuanan took this opportunity to move her white jade fingers restlessly, wanting to touch Li Xuan's cute furry face.

As a result, Li Xuan saw through her intention at once, turned his head to avoid her dirty hands, and then turned around and ran away.

Seeing Li Xuan running away, Fat Orange hurriedly followed him.

It had just finished eating a piece of fish jerky and was still smacking its lips to savor it.

Seeing that her intention was discovered, Princess Yuan An cried out loudly, and threw the kite in her hand aside, crying:

"Little black cat, just let me touch it, just touch it!"

"Ahhh..."

"I'm so angry~"

Princess Yuan An sat on the ground with her buttocks, crying so hard.

Li Xuan turned around and looked at Princess Yuan An's clean little face, thinking to himself:

"Little girl, I'm not a casual cat."

"And you're still a little naive to play the thunder and rain trick with me!"

Li Xuan saw Princess Yuan An squinting one eye and constantly observing his reaction, so there was no reason for him to be fooled.

In the past, when I was too lazy to pay attention to Princess Ankang, the little girl pretended to cry and tricked me into caring about her, and then she was caught and played with.

Li Xuan is already one year old and has long been an expert in this.

"You want to trick me, hum!"

Soon, the figures of Li Xuan and Fatty Orange disappeared outside the bamboo garden.

At this time, the little eunuch who had previously blocked Princess Yuan'an reminded: "Your Highness, the cat ran away."

"I saw it, no need for you to remind me!"

Princess Yuan An got up from the ground angrily, and someone brushed the dust off her clothes for her.

"What a proud little black cat, but I will definitely touch you!"

Princess Yuan An swore secretly.

"Bai Xiao, let's go home!"

Princess Yuan An waved her hand, and Bai Xiao immediately jumped onto her shoulder and lay down safely.

She then threw the kite to the attendant beside her.

"The kite is no longer fun, go and pay your respects to the Queen Mother."

Several eunuchs and palace maids looked at each other in embarrassment, but no one dared to say anything, just silently followed Princess Yuan An.

Not long after, the noisy bamboo garden returned to its former silence.

...

Before Li Xuan returned to Jingyang Palace, he passed by the Imperial Garden and shared some of the fish jerky he got with the cats, and then went home.

He took out the fish jerky and shared it with Princess Ankang and Yu'er.

Princess Ankang thought at first that Li Xuan had taken it from somewhere again.

Li Xuan gestured to explain, and then made it clear that it was someone else's thank-you gift.

"Ah Xuan, you are quite helpful outside."

Princess Ankang said with a smile while chewing the fish jerky.

The fish jerky tastes very good, a little salty, but more fresh and fragrant.

And there are no fish bones at all. I don't know if it has been processed or the fish doesn't have many bones.

Li Xuan lay on the table, being stroked by Princess Ankang's little hand from time to time, enjoying the warm sunshine.

The coldness in the body gradually subsided, it seems that the effect of the snake gall is about to disappear.

At this time, Li Xuan found that the snake gall is not completely useless.

Although it did not strengthen his body and did not advance the progress of the strengthening exercises, Li Xuan found that the recovery speed of the ice breath was slightly accelerated.

Roughly speaking, the ice breath that originally took 17 or 18 days to fully recover may now be shortened by one or two days.

"It turns out that snake gall is not completely useless. Zhao Feng was wronged."

Although the effect is not as exaggerated as Zhao Feng said, Li Xuan felt a little embarrassed at this time.

He was almost ashamed of despising the old man just now. Now he thought that he was indeed a little too much.

But he thought of the compensation Zhao Feng promised to give him, and immediately said to himself: "What a rubbish snake gall, it's just useless!"

Li Xuan couldn't help laughing.

"Old Zhao, you can't blame me for this. It's really that the effect of snake gall is too slow and too weak."

"At most, I will pay more attention to you when I help you in the future."

Li Xuan yawned and couldn't help feeling sleepy.

"I have to continue practicing later..."

He thought drowsily, chewing the fish jerky in his mouth halfway, holding it in his mouth without moving, and fell asleep unconsciously.

Princess Ankang saw that Li Xuan was sleeping so cutely, and couldn't help but lean her head on him, feeling the warm belly.

The breeze was blowing, and the sky was blue and the clouds were white.

There were birds chirping in the distance, and the wind was so calm and comfortable.

…

But just when the days in Jingyang Palace were peaceful.

The disturbance in the court blew into the palace.

Feng Zhaoyuan was put in solitary confinement and was not allowed to leave Suliuyuan for three months, and naturally could not see His Majesty here.

The reason was vague, only the punishment was clearly conveyed.

Concubine Zhao Shu was also warned in secret, and had to keep a low profile.

Wang Suyue, who had not yet moved out of Yanqu Hall, also got the news.

Although this matter had nothing to do with her, Wang Suyue didn't even know what happened from beginning to end.

But the day she moved out of Yanqu Hall was delayed.

It was unknown when she could move to Caiyun Palace in the future and get rid of the title of talent.

Originally, because of the nobles who had gradually gained the upper hand in the harem in recent days, it seemed that they lost all their advantages in one day.

But it was also because of this that the harem began a long period of peace.

When Li Xuan learned the news, it was already a few days later.

He knew that perhaps Deng Weixian's godfather had achieved some purpose again.

But now Li Xuan has understood that the other party's purpose is not limited to the harem, but in a more distant place.

This made Li Xuan understand that it was useless to continue to guess.

That was a place he could not see or touch.

At present, it was more important to improve his strength as soon as possible.

On this day, Li Xuan came to the Ministry of Internal Affairs as promised.

Zhao Feng once again prepared his reward.

Because he was despised by Li Xuan last time and had a psychological shadow, he put a lot of effort this time.

And last time, after Li Xuan left, Shang Zongguan also gave him a reminder.

"If you keep being so stingy, be careful that you will never have such an opportunity again in the future."

Zhao Feng naturally had something to say at that time.

The last ice crystal frozen blood snake's gallbladder sold for at least 5,000 taels of silver on the market. Is this still considered stingy?

He naturally had his own concerns.

If he gave out something too good at the beginning, and asked Li Xuan to help him more in the future, what would Zhao Feng give him in return?

But Shang Zongguan reminded his adopted son that natural treasures might have a value that could be measured, but favors were different.

The value of favors was difficult to estimate.

And whether it was owing favors or giving favors, it could strengthen the bond between each other.

Instead of calculating the gains and losses of a moment or a place, it was better to look at the long-term and pay more attention to maintaining this relationship.

Zhao Feng was enlightened when he heard this.

Sometimes, unfair efforts and rewards can have miraculous effects.

Friendships of snobbery are based on feelings, and friendships of morality are based on reason.

Feelings are easy to change, but reason is hard to forget.

Since Li Xuan wanted to improve his strength, what was wrong with Zhao Feng helping him?

As for the tasks entrusted to Li Xuan, they were just excuses.

Whether they were there or not was irrelevant.

The important thing is that when Li Xuan asked for something today, Zhao Feng helped him.

Zhao Feng figured out the key point and laughed heartily. He also admired his godfather.

He was the first person in ancient and modern times to do this to a cat.

So, when Li Xuan came to the Ministry of Internal Affairs this time, he saw Zhao Feng who was full of confidence.

This made him curious about what Zhao Feng had prepared to be so confident.

Thanks to "Sifang" and "Panchuan Laogui" for their rewards and support.

Thanks to all the book friends for their monthly ticket support.
