Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate

Chapter 104: Sit with me for a while, it will be fine

After the man in black left, Xuanyuan Che did not go into the house, but sat directly on the steps holding Mei Susu.

The courtyard is not small. There is a large hall behind the three houses in front. Although it is a bit dilapidated, it is not messy.

Obviously someone cleans it up regularly.

Mei Susu curled up on Xuanyuan Che's legs and looked at him. He looked listless and seemed to be thinking about something, so she raised her little paw and touched his chest.

Then, as she expected, Xuanyuan Che lowered his head.

His handsome face is really pleasing to the eye, with a hint of red at the corners of his eyes.

Although his face was pale due to injury at this moment, it added a sense of frailty and beauty that he did not usually have.

Without looking at his figure, just looking at his face, one would want to pounce on him and love him dearly.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Mei Susu called out. Although Xuanyuan Che didn't understand, she still wanted to ask.

But what she didn't expect was that Xuanyuan Che seemed to have guessed what she meant. He pinched her tail and whispered, "Susu, do you know where this place is?"

Mei Susu turned her little head around and felt that it looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where it was.

"This is the palace where my mother lived when she was alive." Xuanyuan Che chuckled, "She loved quietness when she was alive, so the emperor built this palace specifically for her and named it Yongning."

Yes, Mei Susu remembered it, and she said that she felt this place was familiar as soon as she entered. It turned out that Susu had been here when she was a child.

Mei Susu now understood why this place was abandoned.

The late queen had passed away, and no one lived here, so it became deserted.

Xuanyuan Che gently touched Mei Susu's little tail twice and continued to murmur: "Eternal peace, eternal peace, but there is no eternal peace in this world. In this deep palace, how can there be peace without fighting or competing?"

He smiled sarcastically, and a strange look appeared on his calm face, as terrifying as a ghost who was taking lives, which made people frightened.

Mei Susu was not afraid of him, but she was still frightened by his expression and trembled.

Perhaps sensing her slight tremor, Xuanyuan Che immediately lost the strange look on his face, and looked at Mei Susu with gentle and doting eyes.

"Did I scare Susu?" He picked up Mei Susu and looked at her at eye level.

Mei Susu's little paws stretched forward dishonestly, almost touching the tip of Xuanyuan Che's nose.

But it was such a small distance that she couldn't touch it no matter how hard she tried.

Just when Mei Susu was about to give up and retract her claws, Xuanyuan Che took her little body and placed her claws on the tip of his nose. He didn't mind her dirty claws at all. He sniffed them and smiled, "Why does Susu's little claws smell like osmanthus honey?"

Mei Susu felt her body getting hot and she hurriedly tried to retract her claws, but Xuanyuan Che seemed to be doing it on purpose and held her claws tightly and refused to let go.

Finally, amid Xuanyuan Che's joyful laughter, Mei Susu was gently held in his arms. Xuanyuan Che put one arm around her and hooked her chin with his slender fingers.

"Susu, just sit with me for a while, it will be fine after a while."

His voice revealed an unprecedented fatigue. Meisusu's little ears twitched, then drooped. She looked at him with her big eyes, calmed down in his arms, and stayed with him quietly.

The only sounds all around were the wind and the rustling of leaves.

A man and a cat sat on the steps, feeling the breeze.

Such a warm and peaceful moment gave Mei Susu the feeling that the assassination just now was all her imagination, and made her have the illusion that they had always been like this and had never been in danger.

But the wound on Xuanyuan Che's shoulder told her that the assassination just now was not her imagination.

The faint smell of blood in the air also reminded her that they were actually in a dangerous situation.

It has only been a little over a month since she opened her eyes, and she has been kidnapped and poisoned. It is still such a big deal for a cat like her, let alone Xuanyuan Che, who must be even more dangerous.

Not only did he have to deal with government affairs and take care of the court, but he also had to be on guard against assassination and poisoning at all times. It would be a lie to say he wasn't tired.

Although there were many things about today that Mei Susu could not understand, she knew that Xuanyuan Che would not be stabbed with the sword for no reason, nor would he bring her here for no reason.

He has his own plan. As for what it is, Mei Susu doesn't know, nor does she want to know. She only knows that Xuanyuan Che will not hurt her.

"Susu, do you want to see my mother's palace?" Xuanyuan Che lowered his head, and Mei Susu's small and slightly curious face was reflected in his black eyes.

"I want to~" Mei Susu meowed.

Xuanyuan Che chuckled, stood up, and walked towards the palace behind with Mei Susu in his arms.

Although the palace, which had been uninhabited for a long time, was cleaned frequently, it still could not conceal its coldness and desolation.

Xuanyuan Che seemed to come here often and was familiar with every corner of the Changning Palace. He knew exactly where the steps were and where to turn.

Mei Susu looked around. From the rockery in front of the hall and the style of the columns in the corridor, it was not difficult to tell that the late queen was extremely favored during her lifetime. The carved beams and painted pillars were full of elegance and care.

But the more this happens, the more I feel that things have changed and the person who was once so favored does not seem to have had a good ending.

Pushing open the heavy door of the hall, the scene that came into view made Mei Susu feel dazed for a moment.

It was deserted outside the hall, but inside it was filled with gold, silver, jade, calligraphy and paintings.

The vermilion columns were outlined with golden dragons and phoenixes, red silk was hung on the beams, and the entire hall was filled with the smell of sandalwood.

The chaise longue was covered with an embroidered Sichuan silk mattress, the table was topped with Xiangfei-colored lotus tea cups, and on the jade-white chessboard was a half-played chess piece.

Looking inside, the carved couch was tidy, with brocade quilts neatly laid out, and a guzheng was placed in front of the couch, without a speck of dust.

It seems as if this place has never been deserted and people still live here.

Mei Susu was very confused. Such a scene should have been weird and eerie to her.

After all, the palace of a person who had been dead for such a long time was so bright and new. Although I knew that someone often wiped it, anyone would feel scared.

But Mei Susu did not have that feeling at all. From the moment she stepped into the hall, the only feeling she had was one of familiarity. Many missing memories came flooding back to her like a tide, and she saw scenes of Susu getting along with the late queen.

She was truly an extremely gentle and kind woman. When she smiled, she could make all the flowers bloom, and when she cried, she could make all the flowers weep together.

She was like a fairy, always smiling and kind to everyone. Even though Mei Susu had never lived with her, she could still feel her beauty from Susu's memories.

Such a wonderful person should be like the moon hanging high in the sky, mysterious and untouchable.

But because he loved the human world, he turned into moonlight, came to the human world for a visit, and finally returned to heaven.
