The low table was surrounded by soft cushions. The Emperor and the National Tutor sat on the ground, each holding a pair of jade chopsticks. They looked at each other, their beautiful eyes shining with a deep meaning.
No one else is allowed to eat the food made by my stupid slave!
This is the Anguo Pagoda. Everything here belongs to me!
Do you want to fight?
Then let's fight!
Su Yu didn't pay attention to the two's undercurrent. He took four small plates and put a piece of fish, a piece of roasted wing, and a piece of dried wing on each plate. He placed them on the empty space at one end of the table, then lay down on the soft cushion and poked his head under the table, "Two Imperial Uncles, His Royal Highness King Zhao, come to the table and eat."
The two big cats that were criticizing each other suddenly stopped. The little fat cat that was trying to use its paws to scratch the wet fur on its head suddenly raised its head and saw Su Yu's enlarged face. It was so scared that the fur on its tail stood up and it took a step back. It immediately understood Su Yu's meaning. It cheered and quickly ran to the table.
Prince Ling stood up and quietly retreated, "Hehe, haha, brother Shisan, let's go eat first."
The white fur on Prince Su's face seemed to be dyed with a shadow. His entire cat face turned black, "Even Concubine Xian knows, and you want this prince to roll around?"
"Ow! I was wrong, I was wrong! "The big black and yellow cat was bitten by its big brother and immediately cried out loudly.
"Your Highness, eat slowly." Su Yu's chuckle was heard, and the two big cats stopped pinching each other. They looked at each other and decided to put aside their previous grievances for the time being. They quickly went to the table so that the little fatty wouldn't finish eating in a while.
His Majesty looked at the three cats and four plates on the table and was somewhat puzzled. He pointed at the extra plates and frowned, asking Su Yu, "Why is this?"
Su Yu picked up a piece of roasted wing for the Emperor and smiled, "Experience."
In his previous life, Su Yu liked to feed cats, especially a group of cats. Looking at a pile of furry balls eating sweetly together, he would feel happy all day. Because of this, he discovered many cat feeding techniques. When several cats were eating together, it was necessary to prepare an extra portion of food, because the weakest cat in the group would always be snatched away. An extra portion of food could ensure that all the cats had something to eat.
His Majesty raised his head to look. Indeed, the black and yellow striped cat was eating, and it stuck its head into the little fat cat's plate. His Royal Highness King Zhao was pushed away, so he turned his head to eat the fish on the other plate.
"If you raise a prince in the future, you can't raise him like this." The National Tutor gracefully picked up a piece of dried catfish wing and took a bite.
"That's why it's delicious." His Majesty nodded in agreement.
Su Yu's mouth twitched. The education style of the royal family was indeed different from the rest.
The meat of the catfish was very hard, and it was still very chewy after being beaten. The little fat cat held a large piece of fish and gnawed with all its might. This kind of chewy thing was very satisfying for someone who was itchy. It swung its short tail as it chewed. His Royal Highness King Zhao's tail was yellow and white striped. It swung in the air, and His Royal Highness King Ling didn't forget to scratch the fish twice while chewing.
Suddenly, the yellow and white striped tail stopped. His Royal Highness King Zhao, who was holding a large piece of fish in his mouth, froze in place.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Su Yu, who couldn't help but look at the cat while eating, immediately noticed his brother-in-law's abnormality.
Everyone else looked at the little fat cat.
His Royal Highness King Zhao put down the fish aggrievedly and opened his mouth with tears in his eyes.
Prince Su stretched out his claws and poked the fish. Immediately, a small white fang embedded in the meat was revealed. "Hong Ting has grown a new tooth!" A voice full of energy suddenly spread across the table. The little fat cat lay on the table and hugged its head with its paws.
"Oh, a new tooth!" Prince Ling immediately went over to watch the show.
The National Tutor raised his hand and held the small fang in his mouth. "This thing is turned over to the National Tutor. In the future, any teeth that fall out must be sent over immediately."
His Royal Highness King Zhao nodded obediently and lay still listlessly.
"Hehe, Hong Ting, don't eat anything hard these few days. Be careful or your teeth will grow crooked." Prince Ling said as he took a piece of fish from another plate that hadn't been touched and put it on his plate. "Seventeenth Uncle will eat it for you."
Prince Su immediately slapped his younger brother's paw and quickly snatched the piece of fish. "If you have something good, you have to show filial respect to your elder brother first."
"Ow!" The black and yellow cat bit the piece of fish the moment it was pulled away. After tearing at its elder brother for a while, it managed to keep a small piece.
His Royal Highness King Zhao lay on the table and let his two Royal Uncles fight over his head.
His Majesty looked at these embarrassing fellows with disdain and decided to quickly finish eating and take these stupid slaves away. He was already stupid enough. If he stayed with these stupid cats, what would he do in the future?
Su Yu looked at them for a while in amusement. He picked a tender grilled fish wing and carefully tore off the tender meat inside and handed it to His Royal Highness King Zhao. "Your Royal Highness, eat this."
The little fat cat sniffed it and raised its head to look at Su Yu. Then, it looked at its elder brother who didn't look happy. It immediately opened its mouth and bit it.
The wing meat of the Ying Fish was actually the most delicious part. Not only did it have the freshness of the fish itself, but it also had the unique fragrance of the "wing." The skin was very thin and crispy after being grilled. It tasted like a pigeon, but it wasn't completely so. Pigeon meat was fragrant, but the meat was hard. The fish, on the other hand, was soft and tender. It tasted good and had a long aftertaste.
After His Royal Highness King Zhao finished a piece of grilled fish wing, the depression of not being able to eat something hard because his teeth had fallen out disappeared. His short tail began to wag back and forth again.
After lunch, His Majesty took Su Yu and left. "He has finished his homework for today. He doesn't need to come back in the afternoon."
The National Tutor raised his white slender hand and put the back of his hand to his mouth. He yawned elegantly and then waved his hand slowly. "Go."
Su Yu bowed to the National Tutor and was taken away by his Majesty.
The three cats, who had eaten their fill, were still lying on the soft cushion.
The big black and white cat lay on its stomach in a dignified manner with a solemn expression and its long tail wagging. The big black and yellow cat leaned on its elder brother's body and licked its paws in satisfaction, savoring the taste of the fish meat just now. The little fat cat lay on its back next to Uncle Thirteen's hind leg and focused on catching the black and white cat's tail.
"You guys …" The National Tutor's cold eyes swept across the pile of furry balls and raised his hand to send them off.
"Twenty-one, come take a nap." His Royal Highness King Ling waved his paws at his younger brother and patted his belly.
"Ridiculous!" The National Tutor glanced at the black and yellow cat with a furry belly. How could the dignified National Tutor do something like sleeping with a furry belly?
After a moment of silence, a big white cat lightly jumped onto the soft cushion and slowly walked over. Then, it gave the black and yellow cat a slap and stepped on his head to climb up and sleep at the highest point.
His Royal Highness King Ling: "…"
The beautiful afternoon nap time was very important for the Da 'an Royal Highness.
His Majesty the Emperor was sleepy on the road, so he turned into a golden kitten and nestled in Su Yu's arms, letting the stupid slave carry him back. Su Yu hugged the Emperor and found that the Emperor seemed to have grown a little. A few days ago, the Emperor was only the size of a palm, but now he was estimated to be half a foot tall. It was obvious that the Emperor was twice as big as His Royal Highness King Zhao.
"Sauce, you've grown taller." Su Yu lay on his side on the bed and held the kitten in his arms, stroking his fur.
The Emperor was comfortably snoring. When he heard the name sauce, he only slightly opened his eyes to glance at him, but didn't stop snoring.
Su Yu measured the Emperor's length with his hand. The growth cycle of these royal cats seemed to be different from that of ordinary cats. Previously, Wang Gonggong also said that twenty years old was considered an adult. Before that, the kittens were the size of a palm, and they would slowly grow up after reaching the age of twenty.
In his previous life, although Su Yu liked cats very much, he never raised one at home. First, he was busy with work. As a cook, he had to work from noon to midnight, so he didn't have time to take care of them. Second, he was afraid that he would have to face the birth, old age, illness, and death of this little furball. The lifespan of a cat was only twenty years.
Now, the cat in front of him that he liked so much from his body to his heart had a long lifespan, enough to accompany him for a lifetime. There was nothing better than this in the world.
Playing with the long golden tail between his fingers, Su Yu, who was no longer taking a nap, began to think about the next day's itinerary. The National Tutor said that the Ying Fish from the East Sea would arrive tomorrow. A large number of Ying Fish needed to be slaughtered in order to prepare for the Full Feast Festival on October 10th. The Empress Dowager wanted him to go to Ci 'an Palace the next day to learn how to manage the harem.
Thinking of the Empress Dowager, Su Yu's face suddenly changed. So far, the oldest royal he had seen who could transform into a cat was Prince Su, who was less than forty years old. The reason why the Emperor had been threatened in court for so long was because the late Emperor had passed away early …
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty …" Su Yu anxiously poked the sleeping kitten.
"Meow?" The Emperor unhappily raised his head that was nested between his paws.
"Can I ask a very disrespectful question?" Su Yu looked at the kitten with burning eyes. His eyes were full of panic.
The golden kitten tilted its head. A white light flashed, and the Emperor, who was wearing a light golden robe, appeared. He turned over and pressed Su Yu under his body. "Speak. It better be something important, otherwise …" A pair of beautiful eyes narrowed dangerously. If you disturbed the Emperor's afternoon nap, you should be prepared to pay the price.
Su Yu swallowed his saliva and immediately regretted it. This wasn't something important. It was the same to ask after the Emperor woke up. He guiltily looked at An Hong-chul, who was still sleepy, and raised his hand to touch his back. "I, I just want to ask, um, how did the late Emperor pass away?"
An Hong-chul's indifferent eyes suddenly became sharp. "Why are you asking this?"
"I, I can't ask?" Su Yu was stunned.
The Emperor quietly looked at him for a while, and then lay down on his side. "He died in battle."
"Died in battle …" Su Yu muttered in a daze. Not only was he not relieved, but he also fell into deep worry. Da 'an didn't have any enemies, so how did he die in battle?
