I am a cat in the palace

Chapter 124 The Imperial Palace

The new emperor ascended the throne, congratulations came from all directions, and the young and handsome young emperor attracted everyone's attention at the enthronement ceremony.

But what is more eye-catching than the handsome young emperor is the raccoon cat that stands proudly on the emperor's shoulder from beginning to end.

"Achibona, go back and report to His Majesty the King. He said that His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia Kingdom likes raccoon slaves. The cats with different long hair and different eyes in our country are famous all over the world. Quickly select the best-looking ones, and pay tribute to Daxia. Xia." This was the reaction of foreign envoys after seeing the great fairy on the emperor's shoulder.

"Lord Lu, I heard that your family has a white jade lion that is about to give birth, why don't you give me one?"

"My white jade lion cost me more than 2000 taels of silver to buy it back. This time I specially sent it back to Xuefeng Mountain for breeding. The appearance of that kind of cat is also very good. Mr. Huo from the Ministry of Finance, Luo from the Ministry of Punishment My lord, there are still a few imperial merchants who have already given Dingyin, and made an appointment for 3000 taels to order all the kittens in this batch. Now I am afraid that there are too few to be born. Although I really want to give you one, but I really want to There is nothing superfluous."

"3000 taels?" exclaimed.

"Shh!"

The emperor loves cats, and the raccoons are worth a hundred times.

The complete ceremony will be held for three consecutive days, including many procedures of offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors.

When all the rituals were completed, everyone was as tired as if they had peeled off a layer of skin.

Back in the palace, Shang Xin did not live in the Xingde Palace where the emperors of the Great Xia lived, but chose the smaller Yangde Palace next to it as their living place.As for the Xingde Palace, he ordered people to restore all the decorations to what they looked like when the late emperor was still there, and ordered people to clean them diligently, and only used them as a place of comfort when missing relatives.

In the annals of Great Xia, the title of the false emperor was removed. As a king who murdered his father and usurped the throne, he was not eligible to be buried in the emperor's mausoleum after death. He was buried alone in the western suburbs of the capital, and he was buried in a simple manner according to the regulations of the prince. .

The first great dynasty after officially enthroned ended, and it was already dusk. Shang Xin waved away the many palace attendants around him, and only took the Daxian to walk slowly in the empty palace.

"Finally... I'm back again." Standing in front of the gate of Yongshan Palace, Shang Xin hugged the immortal and looked up at the newly polished but obviously old plaque on the lintel.

"Go in and have a look?" Daxian jumped out of Shang Xin's arms, and jumped onto the high threshold with his head, waiting for Shang Xin to open the door.

The door wasn't closed, it was just ajar, and it opened with a push.

There was no communication, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the little eunuch sitting on the porch behind the door, who was eating bread, was taken aback. A mouthful of bread was stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out, so he could only stare at Shang Xin in a daze , and then hastily knelt down and kowtowed.

Shang Xin didn't blame him, but reached out and patted his trembling shoulder, "I'm going to walk around casually, there's no need to communicate, you should hurry up and drink some water."

The little eunuch burst into tears of gratitude, and when excited, he finally swallowed the bread stuck in his throat with a gurgling sound. After holding back for a long time, he finally yelled out loud and loud: "My lord, long live my emperor! Long live!"

"Okay, let's go, I don't need you here." Shang Xin waved her hands casually, and went straight forward, stepping back into her childhood home.

"Back when you were a small group, I liked to bask in the sun and sleep here with you the most." Daxian walked in front of Shangxin, and jumped onto the stone table in the courtyard, "At that time, the nanny was holding you, and I was there Here, you just look at me, look at me, and then you fall asleep, hey, but it’s much easier to coax than now.”

Daxian couldn't help sighing. Shang Xin, who was quite moved at first, staggered at his last sentence, couldn't help but went up and grabbed his tail and rubbed him hard, "Who is it that keeps me awake every day? Are you willing to say?"

"Hey, don't touch, don't touch, tickle, tickle!" Daxian twitched, and quickly escaped from Shang Xin's clutches.

I don't know if it's because he heals his injuries with spiritual power every day. Instead of being weak because of the blood pumping every day, this kid's body has become stronger and more flexible, and his strength has also become stronger. If you usually quarrel with him , He is not his opponent without mana.

"Hall... Your Majesty!" Suddenly a pleasantly familiar voice sounded from behind Shang Xin.

When Shang Xin turned around, he saw a thin eunuch knelt down on the ground with some difficulty, and shouted excitedly while kneeling: "Slave Asi kowtowed to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Axi!" Hearing the eunuch's self-introduction, Shang Xin was overwhelmed with surprise, and immediately strode forward to support him, but when he looked down at his legs, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Axi seemed a little uneasy, and intentionally or unintentionally retracted his right leg after standing up.

"What's wrong with your leg?"

Axi showed a bit of bitterness on his face, "A few years ago, someone broke his leg in the hard labor bureau."

After hearing the words, Shang Xin finally understood why an old person like Asi from Yongshan Palace was not assigned to Yangde Palace. Palace servants with disabilities cannot serve the master. He wanted to come to the Department of Internal Affairs to specially transfer Asi from the Hard Labor Bureau. It took a lot of thought to come to Yongshan Palace, but almost all the old people in Yongshan Palace are gone, Shang Xin looked at Asi, "Go back and clean up, come to Yangde Palace tomorrow, I just returned to the palace , there is a lack of trustworthy people around you."

Asi was stunned, and touched his right leg in a daze, "But slave..."

"What I lack is trustworthy people. There is no shortage of people who run errands, and your leg... Daxian, can you show him? See if there is still salvation?"

Daxian stood on the table and stared at Asi's legs, then opened his mouth, and spewed out a small ball of spiritual fire, circled around Asi, and then swallowed it back.

"It can be saved, but he has to suffer." Daxian said slowly.

Asi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he was about to kneel down towards Daxian after struggling: "Slaves are not afraid of suffering, no matter how serious the crime is, it can't be compared to the slaves who have suffered in the past few years when the master is not here. As long as you can follow the master, the slaves will suffer again." Even the greatest sins are willing.”

"Get up quickly, you can't even stand still, why kneel?" As soon as Daxian raised his paw, Axidun felt an invisible force lift him up, and he couldn't kneel down anymore.

Shang Xin began to go to court every day to deal with government affairs. At the beginning of the new dynasty, he was busy almost every day until midnight, and it was not good for Daxian to pester him all the time, so he thought about finding something for himself to do.

The first one is to re-inspect your territory.

It’s been almost six years since he returned to the palace. Wild cats don’t live long. Most of his original subordinates are gone. The ugly-nosed sixth son is still alive. He was adopted by an old eunuch and has a warm life. Naturally live longer than those kittens who can only rely on themselves.

It's just that even if he lived longer than the wild cats, he is already old, but his memory is still there. When he saw the Great Immortal, his already somewhat lifeless eyes widened immediately, "Your Majesty!"

Daxian stood a little higher on the rockery, looking down at him.

Ugly Nose Six was so excited that he seemed to have returned to his prime, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are back! You can count yourself back. I have been looking forward to us all these years."

Daxian pressed his paw towards him, "Okay, okay, I will come back in the future, and of course your benefits will be indispensable. Is there any old guy alive?"

The ugly-nosed sixth boy shrugged his nose, with a crying tone, and shook his head slightly, "When the emperor came to the throne, he caught cats in the palace for a long time. I fled outside the palace, and I was reluctant to leave, always thinking that His Majesty would definitely come back, so I just hid in the palace and survived."

"The little emperor had been making trouble for more than half a year, and then slowly relaxed, but the former three palace officials still warned those little cats not to go. By the way, I remembered that I saw Bai Ling a few days ago. He is still alive, but with injuries on his body, he has been hiding these days and doesn't dare to come out."

"Bai Ling?" Daxian was stunned before he remembered that it was Concubine Duan's cat, a famous long-haired cat that was tributed by Xituer Kingdom.

Ugly Nose Six took Daxian to look for Bai Ling, and met many newborn kittens along the way, many of them were offspring of Ugly Nose Six. Very charming.

"Little Huazi's revenge, I will avenge you." Daxian suddenly said lightly.

The ugly-nosed sixth child suddenly turned his head to look at Daxian, "Although it's a bit late, I've already taken care of that old ghost."

"Your Majesty..." After a short pause, the ugly-nosed sixth boy wiped his big black nose vigorously with his paw, and nodded vigorously, "Thank you, Your Majesty, on behalf of Xiao Huazi."

Soon, Ugly Nose Six took Daxian to a corner of the palace, where there was a pile of broken wood that hadn't been disposed of after the palace was demolished.

"Meow! Meow! Meow?" Ugly Nose Six meowed a few times, and after a while, a cat slowly crawled out of the pile of logs.

Looking at the cat in front of him, it is almost hard to imagine how exquisite and beautiful he was when he was held in the arms of the imperial concubine.The long coat on his body was messy and tangled, and had been stained by muddy water and grass clippings so that the original color could hardly be seen. Only a pair of blue-purple pupils were still beautiful.

"Meow~" Bai Ling responded weakly, and limped out of the hiding place, with one of his hind legs dragging behind him, obviously broken.

Daxian frowned at him, opened his lips slightly, and blew lightly, a spiritual fire flew from between his lips to Bai Ling, and swept across his body, the messy and tangled fur that had been dragged to the ground was instantly covered After burning it and grooming his fur a little, the spirit fire swirled around his hind legs. After about half a cup of tea, Bai Ling moved his hind legs and was pleasantly surprised to find that his hind legs had healed.

Bai Ling excitedly rolled in front of Daxian, showing his belly as if he was being trampled by the emperor, which reminded Daxian that he often put on such an appearance in front of Shangxin... It feels so shameless...

Daxian hurriedly shouted at Bai Ling: "Don't get out, don't get out, you just cut your hair, and then got covered in mud after a while. In my opinion, it's not suitable for someone like you to run around outside. Let's go, I'll take you Go to the cat and dog shop."

"Meow~" Bai Ling turned around and shrank back in fear. Ever since Concubine Duan was arrested, he, a traitor concubine and pet cat, has also suffered a great disaster. strangled.

"What are you afraid of? With me here, no one dares to bully you anymore. You can't live outside like this. Now the manager of the cat and dog shop is my former little follower. With my orders, I will definitely not dare to neglect you. , let's go." Daxian greeted again, and Bai Ling hesitantly walked behind him towards the Cat and Dog Square.

The current steward of the cat and dog workshop is Wei Yuer, who has been transferred from the Yongshan Palace to the cat and dog workshop since the Daxian was framed in the Taimiao. Wrong, so he has been bearing the guilt, and has been doing the hardest and most tiring work in the cat and dog workshop, but it is also because the cat and dog workshop did not transfer him back to Yongshan Palace after the great fairy returned to the palace, which also made him He escaped on the day of the Lantern Festival, just in response to Sai Weng's words: misfortune comes with blessings.

After suffering in the palace for many years, it was not easy for the new emperor to ascend the throne. As soon as the new emperor entered the palace, his status as an old man in Yongshan Palace suddenly rose. Boss, it's been hard work.

When they arrived at the cat and dog workshop, Daxian walked in swaggeringly, and immediately recruited Wei Yuer.

When Wei Yu'er saw the Great Immortal, he immediately knelt down, "Oh, master, why did you come in person? What's the matter, why don't you just ask your servants to come over?"

"It is an old minister under my hand. Although it has been raised in the traitorous concubine's palace before, people are people, and cats are cats. Concubine Duan's crimes have nothing to do with him. From now on, he will be handed over to you. Don't mess with the famous species that Tuer pays tribute to."

After narrating the past with his servants, the Daxian turned his head and went to Jinglan Garden again.

"...Hey, what's the matter? Why is it so lively?"

As soon as Daxian stepped into Jinglan Garden, he felt that the atmosphere was unprecedentedly warm. The hall, which was usually empty and full of ghosts, was still full of ghosts, but there were many times more ghosts bustling around than before.

"It's been so long since His Majesty returned to the palace, but I think of my concubine, who has been waiting for you so anxiously."

The Great Immortal looked at Concubine Jin who was fluttering over, and raised his paws, and the "canopy" of the pointed claws grew by half an inch. Concubine Jin immediately turned halfway and hugged a pillar in the hall.

"Your Majesty is becoming more and more powerful." Concubine Jin laughed dryly.

At this time, Concubine Yuan also came out from the back hall, and bowed to the Great Immortal, looking at her appearance, she had already fully recovered.

"This time, I brought you a gift." Daxian said to Concubine Yuan.

Concubine Yuan was a little surprised, "A gift? For a concubine?"

"Yes." Daxian nodded, turned around suddenly, and instantly transformed into a stunning boy of seventeen or eighteen years old in a yellow brocade shirt. The glass bottle of blue aura was passed to Concubine Yuan.

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Yuan looked at Daxian in shock, this was the first time Daxian transformed in front of them, it really shocked them.

"Your Majesty, you can just accept the concubine..." Concubine Jin stood behind Concubine Yuan, staring at Daxian without blinking her eyes, rubbing her face vigorously with both hands, froze with a piece of blue and white Two patches of red glow emerged from the rubbing of his face.

Daxian looked at her speechlessly, only feeling that she hadn't seen her for a few years. The nerves of this formerly talented girl seemed to be abnormal, and she didn't know if there was something wrong with her practice.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." Concubine Yuan came back to her senses, and congratulated again.

"Why is your palace so lively?" Daxian frowned, watching a few faint ghosts float past him.

"The False Emperor built a music hall in the palace. Seeing that the location of Jinglan Court is good and it has been vacant, he sent a few beauties in. Originally, we wanted to scare and scare those beauties to move out quickly, so as not to Because of the gloomy atmosphere here, I lost my life in vain."

"Who knows, that false emperor has a vicious temper. Within two years, he tortured all the beauties to death, and even killed many palace officials."

"You also know that those who die in this temple cannot walk the path of yin and yang, and can only spend their time here slowly. Those with spiritual roots can still cultivate with the help of yin and yang, and those without spiritual roots can only slowly exhaust themselves. Soul power, until finally the soul flies away. Now these are new ghosts in the hall, and the soul power has not been dissipated, so this hall seems to be lively."

Daxian frowned, nodded, looked down at the vial in his hand, and couldn't help smiling, maybe this time these innocent souls don't have to waste their time until their souls are gone.

"Do you still remember the old ghost back then?" Daxian handed the vial forward again.

Concubine Yuan stood up and looked at the vial in Daxian's hand, and soon found that there was a cloud of white mist floating at the bottom of the bottle between the bluish aura, like a weak soul.

Concubine Yuan looked at Daxian suspiciously, hesitated for a moment and took the bottle.

"Inside is..."

"It should be an old acquaintance."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Yuan looked at the bottle with a thoughtful expression, "Can you let him out?"

"I specially brought it back for you, don't worry, all the mana has been destroyed by me, now it's just a ghost, just be careful, this guy is very cunning, just don't let him escape." Daxian waved his hand very casually, Indicates how the concubine Yuan can deal with it.

Concubine Yuan immediately poured the soul out of the glass bottle, the white mist-like soul floated in the air, and it took a long time before it slowly condensed into a faint human form.

Until this time, the black energy dissipated, but the real appearance of the old ghost was revealed. It turned out to be a young Taoist priest with a tall body and handsome eyebrows. Although he was a ghost, he still wore a crane cloak and held a whisk. The appearance of wind tunnel bone.

Concubine Yuan looked at him coldly, "Are you a remnant of the Sui Yimeng family?"

The Taoist was facing the Great Immortal after consolidating his form, and was about to say something, but suddenly heard a woman's voice behind him, and turned around slowly to look behind him.

"Who are you... who are you?" Probably finding out that Concubine Yuan is not human, it seemed inappropriate to ask who she is, so the old ghost temporarily changed the question.

"Having harmed so many people, don't you remember? Have you forgotten the things you did with He Liangjue and He Changyong?"

"You... Are you from Beisu?" The old ghost probably couldn't remember who Concubine Yuan was, so he could only guess that she was from Beisu based on her question.

"Back then when you performed Yang Yang Art in the palace, every household within five hundred miles of the capital was whitewashed and everyone wore mourning. Your crime is so serious that even the eighteenth level of hell in the underworld will not be able to accommodate you." Daxian cocked his head. Erlang sat leisurely on the side and opened his mouth coolly.

"This gentleman is just saving his beloved woman for an idiot. In the eyes of the superior, as long as the person he wants is alive, what does it matter how many of those pariahs die?"

"The evils you have committed are not limited to these, do you still recognize this hall?" Concubine Yuan suddenly pointed to the beam on the top of the Jinglanyuan hall.

The old ghost looked up along Concubine Yuan's finger, and after a while he seemed to recall, "I never thought this palace is still there."

"That's right, that's why I brought you back specially, because everyone in this palace wants to tear you apart." Daxian said with a smile.

The old ghost's face twitched slightly, but he managed to remain calm, "This is He Liangjue who wanted to kill his first wife, so he specially ordered me to set up this nine-yin game in this palace. It was all done by that heartless man. Sin, what does it have to do with me?"

Daxian looked at him and shook his head, "Then what does it have to do with you? Do you have to do with all those wronged souls that you have swallowed up over the years?"

The old ghost didn't answer, but even if he didn't answer, he couldn't deny it.

"Today, I will hand you over to Concubine Yuan and the others to deal with," Daxian said, looking up at Concubine Yuan, "Although this old ghost's spells have been abolished, his soul power of hundreds of years is still there. It can be regarded as a great tonic, I suggest you share it quickly."

The old ghost was startled when he heard that, he backed away hastily, and turned his head to look at Daxian anxiously: "You, you can't do this, I can help you break this nine-yin situation, and I also know that Qingling Shang Why do people put a seal on you..."

"I also know why he wants to put a seal on me, but it's a pity that bastard Qingling didn't live like you until now, otherwise I would have to tear him apart." Daxian gritted his teeth.

The old ghost looked at the Great Immortal, and only then asked again in surprise: "You... are not a spirit-suppressing beast, but Master Qingling's notes...."

Daxian rolled his eyes at him fiercely, "You are the spirit-suppressing beast, your whole family are all spirit-suppressing beasts."

After scolding, Daxian gave a cold snort and shook his hands and left. Before leaving, he specially locked a spirit fire around the old ghost's neck.

Concubine Yuan sent him away and returned to the main hall. She, Li Lian'er, and Chen Jin slowly approached the old ghost. There was a tacit understanding between their gloomy smiles. If it doesn't work, just eat him directly!
