Chapter 551: Naughty Tiger

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Emperor Jing Xuan rested for two days. The memorials in the court were piled up like a mountain. He was a hardworking emperor and was considered a workaholic when it came to government affairs.

He pinched the space between his sore eyebrows. “Carry this back to the sleeping hall first. I’ll take them later.”

“Yes.” Eunuch Fu left and instructed the two eunuchs to carry the box of pills to Emperor Jing Xuan’s bedroom.

Wuhu landed on the roof of the arched eaves and looked around. It flew in to peck at the box. After pecking for a long time, it did not wake Xiaohu, who was in the box, up. It flapped its wings and flew back to the Imperial Astronomy Center.

Dahu and Erhu had already climbed up the stargazing platform. Without Xiaohu, the two of them shook their heads.

“Why isn’t Xiaohu up yet?” Erhu asked.

“He’s lazy,” Dahu said. “He must have laid down somewhere again.”

It was really tiring to have a lazy brother.

“I’m going to look tor Xiaohu. Are you going?” Dahu asked.

Erhu thought for a moment. “I’ll go.”

The three brothers had a good relationship. After all, they had been the closest people in the world since they were in their mother’s womb and had never really been separated. Without anyone of them, they wouldn’t be used to it. Therefore, the two of them, who had finally climbed up, walked down again.

However, to their confusion, there was no sign of Xiaohu below. Erhu looked around. “Where did Xiaohu go?”

They asked the people from the Star Pavilion, but no one saw Xiaohu.

They returned to the courtyard Qin Canglan was recuperating in, but Xiaohu did not return.

“Is he hiding?” Qin Canglan asked.

Erhu ran outside and shouted, “Xiaohu, stop hiding. Come out!”

Dahu also shouted, “We’ll bring you to play!”

There was no response.

The adults at home gradually realized that something was wrong.

“I’ll look for him,” Su MO said.

“Where’s Wuhu?” Su Xiaoxiao asked Dahu and Erhu.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wuhu flew back. Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked, “Wuhu, where is Xiaohu?”

Wuhu and Xiaohu played together the most.

Wuhu spread their wings and shouted, “Your Majesty, the pill is here! Your

Majesty, the pill is here! Your Majesty, the pill is here!”

Emperor Jing Xuan’s pill… Had Xiaohu entered the palace?

Su MO said thoughtfully, “Today, the Imperial Astronomy Center did send a box of pills to the palace. They were sent away from the Star Pavilion.”

Oh no, Xiao Hu had most likely climbed into the box.

This was not the first time he had been so naughty.

Previously, he hid under the pot stove. Su Cheng went to start the fire and a child darted out, almost scaring him out of his wits!

Su Xiaoxiao clenched her chubby fists.

She felt that she should stop calling him Su Xiaohu and call him Naughty Hu instead.

“I’ll go to the palace!” Su Xiaoxiao said.

“I’ll send you there,” Su MO said.

Wei Liulang expressed that he wanted to go too.

“Stay with Dahu and Erhu.”

The three of them had never separated. With their brother gone, the two little tiger heads would definitely be very anxious.

Wei Liulang finally decided to stay.

Qin Canglan frowned and got someone to scoop Sikong Yun up from the blanket.

Sikong Yun looked like he had woken up. “1 didn’t sleep all night. You better have something important!” Qin Canglan said, “Xiaohu has entered the palace.”

Sikong Yun yawned. “So be it…”

Qin Canglan said with a complicated expression, “He’s King Nanyang’s grandson.”

Sikong Yun woke up in a second!

After Su Xiaoxiao entered the palace, she went straight to the YongshouPalace. The Empress Dowager asked indifferently, “Why are you so early today?”

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “1 have something to say to the Empress Dowager alone. ”

She was rarely so serious. The Empress Dowager gave Eunuch Cheng a look.

Eunucn cneng Drougnt tne palace servants out ancl guaraea tne door.

Su Xiaoxiao went straight to the point. “Xiaohu entered the palace.” The Empress Dowager’s eyes lit up.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “He might have been sent to 1–1is Majesty’s palace.” The Empress Dowager’s expression froze.

After Su Xiaoxiao related what had happened, the Empress Dowager’s heart was in her throat.

The three brothers’ eyebrows were very similar to King Nanyang’s. If Emperor Jing Xuan suspected the three children’s background, the three children would be in danger.

To eliminate the root of the problem, this son of hers would be heartless.

At the thought that the three little fellows, who had barely survived, might be exposed, the Empress Dowager couldn’t care less. She immediately asked Eunuch Cheng to prepare a sedan chair to go to Emperor Jing Xuan’s bedroom.

“Mother?”

Emperor Jing Xuan had just returned from the Imperial Study when he bumped into the Empress Dowager at the door. He could not help but be surprised.

“Are you… here to see your son?”

He asked uncertainly.

The Empress Dowager said calmly, “Why? Can’t I?”

Emperor Jing Xuan hurriedly said, “How can that be? I couldn’t ask for more when Mother comes to see me. I’m… just too surprised.”

The mother and son had been in a cold war for many years. The Empress Dowager’s relationship with him had only eased a little recently, but it was only so that she could go to the temple to reminisce about King Nanyang.

The mother and son entered the sleeping hall.

The palace maids served tea.

The Empress Dowager’s gaze landed on the big box opposite. It was obvious that this box had just been moved in.

She asked calmly, “What’s that?”

“The medicinal pills sent by the Imperial Astronomers.” Emperor Jing Xuan did not hide it.

The Empress Dowager slapped the table. “Fool! You’re so young. How can you be obsessed with alchemy? Have you forgotten how the late emperor went?” Emperor Jing Xuan said, “The late emperor was seriously ill..

The Empress Dowager interrupted him coldly. “He took those so-called immortality pills!”

Emperor Jing Xuan explained, “Mother, these are just pills to strengthen your body. They’re not immortal pills…”

The Empress Dowager said domineeringly, “I don’t care! Do as I say. There’s no room for discussion! Someone! Bring the pills out and burn them! Move, move further away to burn them!”

“Yes!”

Eunuch Cheng entered and was about to carry the pills out.

Suddenly, a young eunuch reported, “Your Majesty, Director SiKong is here. He said that the pills this morning were delivered wrongly. He personally delivered the new pills.”

Emperor Jing Xuan frowned. “Let him in.”

Sikong Yun entered and was surprised to see that the Empress Dowager was also there. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Greetings, Your Majesty.

Greetings, Empress Dowager.”

Emperor Jing Xuan asked Sikong Yun, “Did you get the pills wrong?”

Sikong Yun cupped his hands. “Yes, this box of pills is for me to test the medicine. The box at the door is specially refined for Your Majesty.”

Emperor Jing Xuan looked at the Empress Dowager. “Does Mother still want to burn it?”

The Empress Dowager sized up Sikong Yun deeply and coughed lightly. “In that

case, return it to the official.”

Sikong Yun ordered his disciple to carry out a box of pills.

Just as he reached the door, Emperor Jing Xuan suddenly said, “Wait.”

Sikong Yun and the Empress Dowager paused.

Emperor Jing Xuan stood up and walked over slowly. “Open it and let me take a look. ”

Sikong Yun and the Empress Dowager’s expressions changed.

The disciple of the Imperial Astronomers placed the big box on the ground and turned to look at Sikong Yun. “Master, do you want to open it?”

Sikong Yun closed his eyes.

His Majesty had already spoken. How could he refuse?

Emperor Jing Xuan could not put a finger to it. He just felt that there was something strange with the box.

“Didn’t you hear me? I said, open it!”

The disciples looked at each other.

Eunuch Fu was at a loss. Why were they going against a box?

If they stopped him, it would only arouse Emperor Jing Xuan’s suspicion, making him even more curious about what was inside. But she couldn’t not stop him—

The Empress Dowager decided to pretend to faint.

She held her forehead and was about to use her acting skills that she had not used for more than ten years when Eunuch Quan rushed over and opened the box!

The Empress Dowager was really going to faint this time.

Sikong Yun choked.

Emperor Jing Xuan looked unblinkingly at the additional… little thing in the box. He raised his hand and picked it up. “A gong?

Sikong Yun was stunned.

He strode forward and looked into the box.

Other than the pills in the box, there was no sign of Xiaohu.

Where did Xiaohu go?!
