Chapter 7: Fish noodles

King Jing took Li Yu to the Palace of the Qing Dynasty. On the way, the system had been quiet, and suddenly gave Li Yu a reminder.
"Secondary task-Jiaojiao Mingzhu has reached the prerequisites. Is the host active?"
Li Yu: "..."
Under what circumstances, he hasn't "getting along" with King Jing yet, and there is another task, which seems to be a sideline?
You can't tell from the task name. Li Yu didn't want to grow out of branches. He had to worry about the main line while also worrying about the branch line. Yu's head would be very difficult, but out of curiosity, he asked for rewards.
System: "This task reward is a temporary shapeshifting medicine, which can temporarily transform the host back into a human form, and the effect is one hour. If the branch task fails, there will be no punishment."
Li Yu:! ! !
There is actually a medicine that can become human? Why didn't you say such a good thing earlier! Li Yu thought cleverly, even if it could only change one hour, he could do this kind of task a few more times, and get a few more rewards for round use, wouldn't he be able to maintain his human form forever!
"This is the only reward."
The system meticulously reminds the host's naivety and stupidity.
Li Yu: ...well, I know you are a pit fish system.
This side task must be done. Anyway, if it fails, there is no loss. If you have a metamorphosis, you can pick a suitable day. One hour is equivalent to two hours, and you can eat a lot of human food and speak a lot. I can go anywhere I want to go--
He was originally a human being, not a fish. After he became a fish, he knew how comfortable and happy being a human being.
Although it is only an hour, it would be nice to be able to experience the feeling of being a human again!
Li Yu: ...I just do one more task. I will do it.
The task of calling "Jiaojiao Pearl" only has one sentence, to obtain a night pearl.
The tasks of the pit fish system have always been unclear, and Li Yu is used to it. He has no idea what his own fish will have to do with Ye Mingzhu. As the system has introduced, the branch tasks must have corresponding preconditions before they can be started. This branch line was refreshed on the way King Jing took him to Qianqing Palace, which shows that this task should be related to Lord Mian.
Counting it all, it's not an extra detour.
Although King Jing was a king, he didn't like to take a sedan chair. He took a small carp and followed Wang Xi on the back and strolled to the Qianqing Palace.
The chief servant Luo Ruisheng had already waited for a long time in front of the gate of Qianqing Palace. When he saw King Jing hurriedly greeted him, King Jingjing entered the hall. Wang Xi was unable to enter, so he waited outside the hall.
When it finally arrived, Li Yu deliberately swam to the surface to watch the Palace of Dry Qing Dynasty. It is worthy of the emperor's bedroom, sandalwood bursts, beautiful, and all kinds of rare furnishings in the past, fish eyes are almost straight.
But although this place is beautiful, there is no fish tank. Li Yu still prefers places with blue and white porcelain fish tanks.
He also knew this time when he went out. It turned out that the place where King Jing placed him was Jingtai Hall. Jingtai Hall was the bedroom where King Jing had been in the palace since he was a child. Even though the king was out of the palace later, Jingtai Hall was still reserved for King Jing. King King's site.
It was a casual mess, and he was in the tyrant's nest, Li Yu was a little proud.
After looking around, I couldn't find Ye Mingzhu. The branch mission had come suddenly. Li Yu only hoped that the system could give more prompts, but after the Kengyu system first reminded him to open the branch, there was no sound.
Li Yu can only shelve side quests and main quests together. When there is no clue, he has to go with the fate. It is still important to see the emperor.
The emperor in the book has a lot of hidden relationships with King Jing. In the original book, King Jing's birth mother, Queen Xiaohui, was in very bad health before King Sheng Jing, and after giving birth, she suffered a shock from her son's mute illness and died. The emperor respected and loved Queen Xiaohui very much. He had always been a bit complicated towards the son of King Jing, and he was not close to King King, especially when King King was sixteen years old, the emperor ordered him to open his mansion, and he did not care about King King’s yet. When marrying, the other princes all opened the mansion at the time of the big wedding, so many people think that King Jing is not favored.
Of course, many of these people do not include Li Yu, who knows the whole story well.
The emperor’s alienation from King Jing was not because he really didn’t love King Jing, but a kind of love in disguised form. King Jing was born of Empress Xiaohui. He was of noble origin, but because he couldn’t speak, his status was no longer a successor. Probably, he was ordered to seal the king and open the mansion early, just to save this son. The emperor was unwilling to get close to King Jing because of the death of his beloved wife. But deep in his heart, he also knew that this was the blood of his beloved wife. He hoped that this son could Safe for a lifetime.
Among other things, King Jing was not lenient. When he was young, a prince of the same age laughed at King King as being dumb. King King directly slapped his sleeves and beaten him to fatness. He was accused to the emperor. The emperor punished them all, but he warned others in private. The prince, let King Jing more.
King Jing couldn't speak, and enlightenment was inconvenient. The emperor specifically pointed to Master Yan who had taught deaf-mute people.
These are the places where the emperor favored King Jing, but he never said clearly.
So Li Yu was really not worried about this trip.
In the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, the emperor, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, sits on the throne engraved with flying dragons. Seeing that it is King Jing, he nods his head slightly: "Tianchi, you are here."
King Jing put the sea bowl filled with small carp on the small table nearby and saluted seriously.
The emperor smiled and called him to get up, and took a look at this son from a distance. King Jing was still the same, deserted, and the emperor's eyes naturally fell on the sea bowl that King Jing had brought.
In the emperor’s cognition, the bowls were mostly used to hold soup, and when they took the bowl into the Qianqing Palace, they mostly offered soup to him. The emperor mistakenly thought that King Jing was wrong, so he brought a bowl of soup to himself.
The emperor smiled and said, "You really have a heart."
King Jing who was misunderstood by surprise: "..."
The emperor and this son seldom got close, and King Jing was willing to please him. The emperor couldn't tell the ironing, even if he asked Luo Ruisheng to bring the "soup" that King Jing had brought over.
Because King Jing couldn't speak bluntly, he was slower to stop him. Lord Luo had already picked up the sea bowl quickly, and the waiter on the side also passed the silver needle.
The soup looked like medlar fresh fish soup. Luo Gonggong had to check it as usual. After receiving the silver needle, he lowered his head and collided with the lively little carp who had his face out of the water to see the excitement.
Grandpa Luo was taken aback, and he almost smashed the bowl with a shake of his hand: "Oh, this is what King Jing entered...what is this?"
Li Yu was also frightened by the sudden appearance of Father Luo, and he sank to the bottom of his bowl.
Still alive? Luo Gonggong was solemn, it was not fish soup!
"What did King Jing offer?"
The emperor was far away, and Grandpa Luo was surprised when he exclaimed.
Lord Luo couldn't answer, King Jing got up, walked in front of Lord Luo, and silently took the sea bowl from Lord Luo.
emperor:? ? ?
King Jing brought the sea bowl to the emperor himself, but he held the bowl firmly in his hand, and did not intend to pass it forward, as he wanted to hand it over to the emperor.
emperor:"……"
The emperor saw that in the huge rippled sea bowl, there was a lot of clear water, and a small carp with a palm was swimming in it.
The emperor was taken aback: "King Jing, what do you mean by this?"
Mu Tianchi smiled, put his fingers into the water at random, and stirred gently.
At this time, Li Yu had secretly seen the emperor in the water. The emperor was a square-faced uncle with a short beard. Li Yu was thinking secretly. Fortunately, King Jing only had eyes that were somewhat similar to the emperor. Still follow Empress Xiaohui, if you follow the emperor, beautiful men will be greatly reduced...
Probably slandering King Jing in his heart, King Jing suddenly acted, Li Yu was a little at a loss.
After reacting, King Jing's actions were actually intended to tease him, but this was in the front of the imperial court. What exactly did King Jing want to do?
Since King Jing changed his bowl, he knew that King Jing did not intend to dedicate him to the emperor, because the most important thing is the appearance. The elegant little jade bowl is obviously more popular than the rough sea bowl. King Jing abandoned the jade bowl instead of using it, which shows that he would not use him to please the emperor.
That King King, why did he bring him to face the monarch again? Why did he do this kind of action in front of the emperor?
Regardless of him, if the owner is teasing the pet, the pet has to... respond.
Li Yu held back his embarrassment and greeted King Jing. Anyway, he didn't sell cute to King Jing once or twice. He came to the gap between King King's fingers, hesitated a little, and Yu's mouth touched King King's fingers affectionately.
Oh...it smells like fish food, it's the delicious red fish food.
At first his behavior was still a bit blunt, but later he was completely willing to chase the opponent's fingers and play.
King Jing looked down at the little carp swimming happily, with a faint gleam in his eyes. The emperor thought for a while that he was wrong. King Jing had always been cold and hard, and he had never expressed any emotions in front of him. It can be said to tease a fish tenderly...
In the past, the emperor felt that King Jing was lonely, and secretly ordered people from the cat and dog room to adjust several cats and dogs for King King to accompany him. However, King Jing didn’t even look at it and didn’t leave one. The emperor thought at that time, King King should not like pets, but now, King King, who doesn't like pets, makes an exception to a fish? ?
The emperor thought about all the possibilities in a daze, and said with difficulty for a long time: "Do you want to tell me that you have a fish?"
Mu Tianchi nodded slightly.
King Jing actually raised fish. The emperor was surprised, but it was a good thing that this son finally got a little human touch.
Look at this fish again... This fish is not a rare and auspicious koi, but a very unusual little carp, which seems to be the kind that can be used to stew fish soup.
... King Jing's vision is really hard to express.
At this moment, the emperor had forgotten the purpose of calling King Jing to come, and the corner of his lips twitched against his heart and said: "Fish farming is pretty good."
King King: "..."
Li Yu also saw King Jing nodded, and he felt like a pony running with his head held high. Although the Prince and himself had already identified him as King King’s pet fish, King King personally admitted that it was the first time. King Jing took him to see the emperor. He actually wanted to admit that he was a fish pet in front of the emperor. Isn't this pet raised too high-profile?
Li Yu is almost floating. The main quest of Million Fish Pet is to be King King’s pet fish. Now King King admits that he is a fish pet in front of the king. Does it mean that this main quest is completed?
But after waiting for a while, I didn't hear the prompt to complete the task. It seems that the master personally admitted that it was useless, and the pit fish system didn't admit it, so he should continue to "get along" step by step.
A servant hurriedly reported that it was the imperial concubine and the second prince begging to meet outside the palace gate.
Only then did the emperor remember what was going on, and gave King Jing a meaningful glance. King Jing's back stood upright to tease his fish. There was no response. The emperor sighed slightly and said, "Let them come in."
The author has something to say:
The imperial concubine is here, and she is here with her enemies Meow and Ye Mingzhu! !
Small Theater (Mian Jun)
Li Yu: Why did Your Highness bring fish to see the emperor?
King King: Let everyone know that you are my fish.
Don’t worry, King King will recover.
There will be little fish, and there will be some in human form.
