Extra Story: One Day in Tianmu

When a ray of golden morning light shone into the room, Tianmu stood up from his comfortable and soft nest. The big bird flapped its wings and let the golden ray of sunlight shine on its body to highlight its graceful and luxurious temperament.

Thus began its glorious day.

As we all know, only when the head of the family wakes up will the family be allowed to start eating the morning meal.

However, as soon as the third eye opened, he found that his daughter-in-law was missing again - this daughter-in-law was restless, and he wanted to teach the other party his unique skill of eating and waiting for hunger, but he didn't know that the other party had half learned it.

So he dropped out of school, stayed away from home all day, and indulged in hunting.

If you are married to it, do you still need to hunt it yourself?

But he still couldn't control it. If he said a few words that he didn't like it, he would peck it on the head.

Hey, why did we end up with such a woman who abandoned her husband and son...

In the final analysis, it was all the fault of the unhealthy trend in Beijing where women were the masters of affairs, which made it difficult for her husband to stand up.

No matter, not every bird can have its brains and talents.

Fortunately, although the daughter-in-law is unwilling to learn, she still has several children who can be trained as his heirs.

After taking the three children to eat the morning food carefully prepared in the kitchen, Tianmu led them to patrol the prince's residence.

The big bird took the lead and walked in front, followed by the three smaller ones.

The people in the mansion had long been accustomed to this scene, and when they saw the Otiao family, they all took the initiative to make way - after all, they couldn't expect Lord Tianmu to make way for them.

The third eye holds its chest up and raises its head all the way, and occasionally stretches out its big wings to point somewhere - look, this is the country that dad has laid for you.

The three little vultures were full of admiration and pride.

Until their father signaled them to go play alone, and he walked towards the largest courtyard in the entire Prince's Mansion.

To the little vultures, the most noble and capable people live in that courtyard.

And their father stays in that courtyard until dark every day, doing amazing things.

Look, how tall and majestic dad’s back is, how arrogant!

As soon as the arrogant big bird entered the courtyard, a doll staggered towards it from the corridor.

The baby had just turned two years old and could not walk very steadily. When he went down the stone steps, several palace attendants followed him step by step to protect him, but it still made Tianmu extremely nervous.

The big bird also swayed and ran quickly towards the doll.

A person and a bird are almost the same height, but once the Third Eye spreads its wings, it seems to immediately become a giant——

The behemoth used its two wings to hold the doll that fluttered towards him in its arms and steady it, while not forgetting to coo at the palace attendants who followed, as if to blame them for not doing enough of their duties.

The palace people were silent and did not argue.

After all, the Third Eye is always very strict.

I think back then, not long after the little grandson was born, three wet nurses were replaced by the Third Eye - it never left the little grandson for half a step, and it always monitored every move of the wet nurses.

Harsh.

Little did the wet nurses know that the big bird that was always following them still cared about this, and they didn't realize that they had been dismissed by a bird until they left.

As the people around the Crown Princess, they naturally knew it.

At that time, they all agreed that if the Third Eye could produce milk, it would definitely have to personally take part in feeding the little grandson.

And although the third eye does not care about breastfeeding, in terms of daily care of the little emperor's grandson, it is no different from a personal wet nurse.

In the yard, the big bird followed the little grandson closely.

A two-year-old baby is full of curiosity about everything, so the errands of the third eye become very busy——

The doll caught an autumn butterfly whose wings were stained with dew. The third eye was so frightened that it jumped to its feet and screamed. It hurriedly stepped forward and waved the wings away, fearing that the doll would eat it if it put it in its mouth. It had rich experience and knew that everything the doll could get was worth it.

The terrible trick of tasting it with your mouth.

The doll ran to the rose stand and wanted to pluck off a rose, but it quickly stopped it - this thing has thorns!

The big bird picked off one with its long beak and gave it to the doll.

The doll was very happy and was about to run back holding the flowers: "... send it to A Liang!"

The Third Eye screamed - slow down, slow down!

If you are busy, keep up quickly and walk in front of your children.

If you encounter pebbles on the road, use your paws to help the doll throw them away.

The face of a baby, the sky in June, change at any time.

Just now, I said I would give the flowers to my grandma, but I forgot about it halfway through, dropped the flowers in my hand, and ran towards the pond to see the fish.

Tianmu was even more frightened - how could there be water where there were dolls?

Seeing its worried look, the palace attendants who followed the little prince covered their mouths and laughed.

This pond actually has an incomprehensible feud with Tianmu.

The celestial eye forbade the little prince from playing in the water, but he couldn't stop him, so he always picked up pebbles and threw them into the pond at night - until one night, His Highness the Prince caught him, and they made a big noise at the edge of the pond.

Open business.

The Crown Princess spent a lot of effort to mediate this.

When Tianmu was extremely busy, a palace official came over with a smile and said: "...The people from the Dongyang Palace have arrived! They all want to meet the little emperor's grandson!"

When the little emperor's grandson heard this, his eyes lit up and he ran ahead: "Dudiu is coming! Grandpa is coming!"

Tianmu flapped his wings again and chased after him.

Xu Mingyi and others were waiting outside the courtyard. When he saw the baby being brought over by the big bird, he smiled and bent down: "Yu'er, come to Aniang's place."

The doll ran towards her with arms stretched out.

She easily picked up the chubby child with one hand and led the palace guests to the front hall. Her steps were calm and light as she stepped on light pink embroidered shoes under the hem of her skirt.

In the hall, the Xu family's grandfather and grandson were waiting there.

Tianmu ran towards Xu Mingshi.

The young man who has reached the age of eighteen is as tall and tall as a green bamboo, and he has already occupied the position of the most beautiful man in the capital.

Xu Mingyi lamented this - it seems that the most beautiful position in the capital, for her Xu family, is not only inherited, but also monopolized.

As for whether she can continue the family's glory, she patted her younger cousin Ah Zhou on the shoulder: It's up to you.

Ah Zhou is also here today.

The boy who has just passed his sixth birthday has the shadow of his father Xu Yun in both stature and appearance - but in terms of temperament, he is more like the old man.

Looking at this young uncle with his third eye, he felt a little worried.

This little ancestor is not bad-tempered, but he is too naughty. How naughty can he be?

Let’s just say a few years ago, when the little prince was not born, he would often go back to Dongyang Prince’s Mansion to have a meal and stay for a while. Because this ancestor was so naughty, he was frightened all day long, his feathers stood up, and he had no choice but to ignore him.

To be pure.

Now only six years old, he has already mastered the skill of digging out bird's nests.

The mouse nest in the Dongyang Palace was also clearly arranged by him, and now there is no chance of a mouse being found in the entire palace.

Mr. Xu was very happy, saying that the child was so naughty, which was a sign of intelligence and diligence. He probably wanted to bring back his father Xu Yun's share of life.

Speaking of Xu Yun, he has already become a teacher in the Imperial College.

His wife is obsessed with horse riding and neglecting him all day long, so he always has to find something to do - after all, his niece said that a man must be independent to be valued by his wife.

He listened and did as he was told.

It’s just that it’s not an easy thing to get up without pain…

Therefore, because he did not want to get up early, and occasionally chose to stay overnight in the Imperial College, students would often knock on the door early the next morning and ask him to get up and go to class...

"Sir, it's time to get up!"

"Sir, we'll get you some water!"

"Sir, these are your favorite Zhao Ji steamed buns."

"Sir, if we don't hurry up, we won't be able to finish the classes before the monthly exam..."

"As long as Mr. Lao works hard for two more days..."

"..."

Over time, the students calling Mr. Xu to get up have become a beautiful sight in the Imperial College.

Even so, the class taught by Xu Yun is still something that countless students are trying to get into.

Moreover, at this moment, I was staring closely at the little devil king of Xu Yun's family. When I saw that the little prince was hugging his cousin, I immediately became alert.

Sure enough, the little devil Ah Porridge took his little cousin's hand and took him out to play.

Thinking of this uncle's deadly methods, Tianmu didn't even bother to sit there and reminisce about old times with Mingshi, and immediately jumped off the chair and ran out after him.

In the hall, Xu Mingyi was sitting and talking to his grandfather.

Two years after my grandfather left Dongyang, he lost the throne to his father and ran back to the capital.

The second uncle and the second aunt live in the capital, and the mother and the second aunt are really inseparable...

So, now only my father stays in Dongyang...

Every time he thought about this, Xu Mingyi felt a little guilty for no reason.

Fortunately, my father's letters still show his open-mindedness and optimism, and he is already obsessed with the many delicacies in Dongyang City.

Throughout the morning, Tianmu was exhausted from playing in the garden with the two children. He spread his wings and exposed his chubby belly, and sat helplessly beside the rockery.

It wasn't until the prisoner came to say that dinner was ready, that the big bird's drooped eyelids suddenly opened, and he suddenly became full of energy.

Grandpa Xu once said - If you are not active in eating, you will have problems with your thinking!

The overactive big bird pushed a child forward with one wing and rushed towards the dining room.

After finishing the meal and sending the Xu family out of the Prince's Mansion, Tianmu took the little emperor's grandson and followed Xu Mingyi back to the courtyard.

The little grandson was lying on the small bed, and Akui was holding a picture album beside him and telling stories.

The Third Eye is always very satisfied with this aspect.

This is its most relaxing moment.

These short stories were all written and drawn by Akui's husband Shou Ming specifically for the little prince. They are easy to understand and have educational significance.

Tianmu also slept beside the little prince's bed and listened until the baby fell asleep. It carefully tucked the baby's quilt, then lay down and closed his eyes in peace.

Halfway through my sleep, I heard footsteps in the room.

The footsteps were very light, just like when it went to the kitchen to steal something to eat——

But it was still heard.

He opened his eyelids and took a look. When he saw that it was the male master, he closed them again.

Next to the bed, there was a gentle rustling sound.

Xu Mingyi sat up and said in a very soft voice: "I'm back..."

"Yeah, but did I wake you up? Can you sleep a little longer?"

"No, I'm tired of sleeping."

Xie Wuyang took a shawl from the sandalwood stand nearby and put it on her body.

While talking to her, he said: "Today I have to rush back for dinner. The cabinet has some urgent matters that need to be dealt with, so I can't get away... I have to make amends with my father-in-law some other day."

"It doesn't matter, grandpa knows you are busy."

Tianmu buried his head under the wings again - the old general wouldn't mind whether the male master was there or not, after all, no one was here to see him.

Moreover, how can I say that the male protagonist is annoying?

If the daughter-in-law doesn't sleep, shouldn't she and the little prince also sleep? Can't they just talk about it?

"...Today my father mentioned Yu'er and said that the emperor's grandmother often asked me to take him with me when I enter the palace tomorrow."

"Why don't we go back to Fulong Palace to stay for a while? Things in the palace have been complicated recently, so you don't have to run back and forth all day long..."

"No need. You don't have any free time all day long. It would be inconvenient to go back to the palace to live." Xie Wuyang looked in the direction of the small bed and said with a smile: "Let Yu'er go stay with the emperor's grandmother for a few days."

"That's fine, ask the Third Eye to accompany you."

"..."

After talking for a while, the couple finally realized their conscience and remembered that "you can't disturb the children." So Xu Mingyi got up to change clothes, and the two of them went for a walk in the garden.

Xu Mingyi is free today, which is rare.

She also has many things to do, and has recently been busy building a girls' school.

The two of them walked slowly in the garden, talking about political affairs and family matters.

Then he casually talked about Princess Yufeng.

To be precise, it is a matter between Princess Yufeng and General Xiao Nie.

When it comes to these two people, Xu Mingyi really doesn't know what to say...

The tugging and tugging process is so complicated that I can only summarize it in a nutshell: Jiao Jiao saw the color and wanted to bring General Xiao Nie into his residence. However, after a year of entanglement, General Xiao Nie wanted to marry him instead.

Jiao Jiao passes through the door.

Who to marry and whom to marry has become a difficult problem.

The two of them refused to give in to each other, and both were evil-minded.

One of them said, "General Nie is the person that this princess likes", leaving the other party with nothing to talk about.

The other one also refused to show weakness——

A few years ago, when Jiao Jiao went to visit a waiter's restaurant, he just ordered a waiter to accompany him to have a drink. In the blink of an eye, that waiter would pack his bags and leave the capital overnight.

Under this situation, Jiao Jiao has been in business for more than two years and has not been able to get a new face to enter the house.

And just two months ago, the princess took advantage of the black-faced god's absence in the capital and quietly went to the tavern to have a drink. Halfway through the meal, she suddenly heard a roar of people outside——

After waiting for a while, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Just when she was about to yell, "Who dares to disturb the purity of this princess?", she saw a young general walking in - General Xiao Nie, who had not yet lowered his armor, with a long knife hanging on his waist, glanced at the men on her left and right,

He said expressionlessly: "Everyone, please step aside and let me serve the princess."

The people who had just returned from the battlefield were full of evil spirits, and the waiters retreated as if they were fleeing.

That night, no one knows exactly what happened...

And in this game between the two, who will win in the end is really exciting - for this reason, the people in the capital even secretly placed bets on the outcome.

Xu Mingyi felt that it was hard to say who would win or lose, but even if they couldn't tell the difference, the two would probably be entangled for the rest of their lives.

After talking about this drama, Xie Wuyang smiled and asked: "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Let Xiao Qi cook a few dishes..."

I would also like to try Uncle Qiu's craftsmanship, but Uncle Qiu has already passed on his unique skills to his son-in-law Xiaoqi.

Doctor Qiu's son-in-law, Xiao Qi—recently, he can't help but doubt his wife's true purpose in marrying him.

Before going to bed and after waking up, look at the person next to you and always ask yourself: Have you been taken advantage of?

Doctor Qiu never thought that he would stay in the capital forever.

At first, his daughter always used endless excuses to delay him.

Later, when I saw that all the excuses I could find were exhausted, it turned out that the Crown Princess who had returned from traveling outside was pregnant——

Now my daughter has become famous, and she has no shortage of excuses!

The princess is pregnant, can she rest assured if her father is not with her?

The little prince is still a few months old and has to be looked after by his father.

He waited and waited, and finally waited until the little prince turned one year old - let's see if this girl has any reason not to leave!

As a result, his daughter told him that she had found someone she liked and wanted to get married on the spot...

Could it be that this is the rumored way to get rid of it once and for all?

This thing really made her play through it!

But how can marriage be a piece of cake?

As a father, you have to think carefully.

Until he heard a piece of news - after General Xu, King Dingnan would also come to the capital to accompany Princess Dingnan in her retirement...

At this time, looking at Xiao Qi again, Doctor Qiu couldn't help but show satisfaction... Well, he recognized this son-in-law.

Therefore, Xiaoqi's self-doubt after marriage is twofold - the doubleness of double utilization.

No, as soon as he finished working in the kitchen, his wife dragged him to see the lanterns——

Today is the Qiao Qiao Festival.

Does his wife really just want to watch the lanterns with him?

That's all, as long as you are willing to be his wife.

After all, he just got married at this young age, and there was a reason why he declined the kindness of His Highness and the Crown Princess many times.

In the night, Xiao Qi was being held by his wife, looking at the "reason" holding him, with a smile of resignation and rejoicing on his face.

Xu Mingyi and Xie Wuyou changed into their regular clothes, prepared curtains and hats, and were about to go out.

The little prince saw it and wanted to follow him. He grabbed his mother's clothes and refused to let go. His mother ruthlessly took off his little hand and said mysteriously: "My mother and father are going to catch the big nian beast.

Are you listening to the fireworks outside? They are driving away the Nian beast."

"Isn't the Nian beast only found on New Year's Eve?" Although the doll is only two years old, it is already difficult to fool.

"...Who knows, maybe he forgot the date and came out early to cause trouble?" Xu Ming's expression did not change.

"Okay..." The little prince blinked his innocent eyes and pointed to the bow and arrow hanging on the wall: "Does Liang want to use this?"

"Ah...of course!" Xu Mingyi had no choice but to take the long bow and hold it in his hand.

Xie Wuyang also patted his son's head solemnly: "Be obedient and wait until your mother and I come back."

"Well! Yu'er is obedient!" The little baby clenched his round fists as if to encourage his parents.

So, the couple held hands and went out with a long bow.

When I came back, the Third Eye had put the baby to sleep.

Big Bird looked at the two of them with a resentful look on his face, his eyes filled with "I won't do this again."

Until Xu Mingyi took out a big meat skewer from behind.

Tianmu's demeanor immediately became reserved - it was just a matter of effort.

After eating the meat skewers, Tianmu left the place.

When he returned to his yard, which was planted with vegetation and looked like a deep forest, he was still greeted by the adoring eyes of the little vultures.

The big bird held its head high again.

Hey, the glorious day is over again.
