Lihua immediately understood that this punishment was already very light and there was no room for negotiation.
She could only watch the two young eunuchs go to receive their punishment every day, and then limp back to Tingli Courtyard after receiving their punishment. She did not dare to sit down when eating, drinking, or having sex, and she had to turn over to sleep.
Lihua sighed secretly that she couldn't help them, and the two poor little eunuchs had suffered from her.
Lihua asked about Wu Xue: "What about Furball? Why did Long Live Master punish him?"
Yuchi Gong held the book again, his eyes fell on the book, and he said calmly: "It's its fault for not protecting you."
Lihua didn't think that was the case. Like Xiao Zhuozi and the others, Wu Xue only left after listening to her words.
At that time, she didn't know that the person behind the scenes was Kang Taifei, a back-up. At that time, she judged that she had control of the situation, and knew that Chun was very important to her. She could not save her in time, so she let Wu Xue go.
She didn't know what happened to Zhichun. The children in Tingliyuan kept a tight lid on the matter in order not to let her worry.
But Lihua never guessed that Zhichun must be in danger, otherwise there would be no need to cover up.
So she didn't regret letting Wu Xue go rescue Zhichun at all, and she would still let Wu Xue go again.
She was about to plead for Wu Xue, but she heard Yuchi Gong continue: "I think it was quite clever, and it warned me in time, and then it arrived in time before it caused a big mistake, so it made up for the mistake."
He turned to look at Lihua: "I didn't punish it for this mistake."
It's just that the cold air coming out of the emperor these past few days has made Wu Xue's hair grow all over, and he was worried and scared when he saw his master.
On the night of Lihua's accident, Yu Chigong was guarding the bedside, while Wu Xue was whining softly beside the bed. He was worried about his mistress and his master at the same time. He was extremely sad.
It tried to rub its master's trouser leg, but its master refused to pay attention to it. His eyes were indifferent, and he didn't know what he was thinking. The murderous aura he exuded was very strong.
Later, the most dangerous moment for Lihua passed, but Wuxue was still not happy because the good deeds he had done were revealed.
"Ah?" Lihua was confused. Without being punished, she still made her go to the memorial tablets of her ancestors every day to think about it?
Could it be that, as Zhichun said, Wu Xue stole some ancestral fish and made it extinct?
She suddenly felt blessed and asked in surprise: "Could it be that the fish Wu Xue caught were stolen from Huaqing Pond?"
That's why Zhichun called it the ancestral fish. After all, the fish in Huaqing Pond dates back to the time of Emperor Shengying, hundreds of years ago.
Every species of fish in it is very rare and has been handed down from hundreds of years ago to the present day, and is carefully maintained by the palace people.
They are either the descendants of fish from hundreds of years ago, or they are the ancestors of fish that have lived for hundreds of years, and some are even extinct outside the palace.
There are only a few of each species of fish, and even after hundreds of years of growth, there aren't many of them.
Arowana is one of the best. It grows slowly, is difficult to cultivate, and has strict environmental requirements. It only grows half a centimeter a year. It is extremely rare and valuable.
For example, an arowana that grows to half a meter long will need to grow for at least a hundred years, and it will still be disease-free and smooth.
The dragon fish has a unique appearance and shape. Not only does its nose look like a dragon's nose, but it also has bulges on the upper side of its eyes. The fins are not on both sides of the gills, but behind the bulges. The entire fish head looks like a legend.
The fish transforms into a dragon, which is a symbol of good luck.
Not only that, arowana is a precious meal that nourishes vitality and prolongs life. Legend has it that when taken together with another precious elixir, it has the effect of reviving the dead.
The entire Huaqing Pond has been cultivated for hundreds of years, and only a few arowanas have been raised in total.
For hundreds of years, the arowana has been regarded as auspicious by emperors of all dynasties, not only because it is precious and rare, but also because the fish in the pond is the fish passed down from the ancestors of Emperor Shengying, and even more because the arowana looks like the dragon it symbolizes.
meaning.
"The fish in Huaqing Pond have been kept as treasures by our ancestors for generations, and almost no one has touched them for hundreds of years."
When Yuchi Gong said this, he couldn't help but snorted: "It dares to do so. It's so courageous. Do you think I should punish it?"
