The following day, the period Yan Si arrived to meet RongCheng, the man solely in an ambiguous and noncommittal manner stated that his own self was not well, yet conversely desired not to permit his pulse to be taken; right after that, he then sought an excuse to avoid and depart, causing the youth to feel immensely angry.
Yan Si possessed a feeling RongCheng was step by step wishing to depart far away from his own self already… solely requiring the thought of it was already sufficient to cause him to be unable to sit or stand in peace.
In the meantime, arriving to the fifth night, RongCheng began to lower his furious desire down; solely performing until midnight, he already obtained satisfaction and then rolled across to sleep soundly.
Being beside Shang Yuan, RongCheng exactly as though found back the light and the human part, the part of reason inside his very self, forgetting entire wholes of anxieties as well as the complex of guilt. Solely requiring that chief wife to take initiative and be a short bit tender, he instantly melted into the interior of his wife's arms.
The following morning, there was a delegation of merchants from foreign kingdoms arriving to offer very many precious as well as immensely ancient and strange tribute items toward the imperial court. Entire consorts, princes, and princesses all possessed the capability to arrive to watch; as long as whoever favored whatever item, they thereupon took that item, but must know how to yield, not being permitted to contend and fight.
At this time, almost everyone solely paid attention toward the chest containing entire rare treasures and strange gems; the surrounding area clamored up in entirety, everyone wishing to obtain the most beautiful and best item for their own part. Separately, Shang Yuan conversely solely placed his mind toward the small cage situated at a corner that no one deigned to look across.
Sighting thus, RongCheng stepped toward to ask: "What is afflicted with A Yuan? Why do you not arrive over there to examine a short bit whether you favor any item or not?"
Shang Yuan shook his head, pointing his hand toward the small cage, saying: "Highness, look upon it; is it a puppy or not?"
According to the pointing of the person's hand, RongCheng only then looked closely into the interior; indeed he was a short bit astounded: "It…"
He in silence pondered for a short while, saying: "Its appearance is also identical to a dog, nonetheless…"
It resembled a wolf cub more heavily.
A truly strange puppy; the fur above was pure black, while the portion below was white identical to a snowflake, and even the eyes were one side blue and one side yellow, similar to a piece of pure jade, immensely beautiful.
Watching the dog a short bit, RongCheng smiled, asking: "Does A Yuan favor it or not? Or shall my very self bring it back for you to rear?"
Shang Yuan in a quiet and deep manner pondered for a short while, thereupon shook his head: "I see it truly resembles a wild wolf…"
But if it were a tribute item, then definitely it had been tamed; he said: "Or pray you bring it to give toward A Si; he in former days was accustomed to living in wild places, perhaps he will see himself favoring it."
Even so, toward an entity having been multiple turns bitten by dogs to a degree of requiring to scrape skin and carve flesh, the matter of favoring it or fearing it conversely was a matter difficult to speak out.
The heart of Shang Yuan caused RongCheng suddenly to sense a pang of guilt inside a fleeting moment; it was solely that he expected not the person conversely spoke: "Possessing it as a companion, it is hoped his person will diminish in some part his loneliness, and will entwine less around you."
It turned out to be thus… RongCheng nodded his head, smiling, replying: "In such a manner is also good."
It was solely that he apprehended the youth would fear it and dare not receive it, that was all: "Ignore it and let it be then; first continuously bring it across to test and see how it is."
The period RongCheng brought the puppy across to give toward Yan Si, different from his anxiety prior to that, when he thought the person would be very fearful of it, who would have expected he conversely manifested delight, asking: "This item, did Eldest… Eldest brother truly give it toward me or not?"
RongCheng nodded his head: "It is A Yuan who wished to bestow it toward you."
"Second brother?" Hearing to this pass, Yan Si suddenly possessed a short bit of hesitation.
At this time, RongCheng pointed into the interior of the small cage, saying: "Look, does its appearance look truly lovable and obedient yet?"
"It… truly is truly lovable, nonetheless…" It also resembles a wolf excessively.
RongCheng again in a decisive manner spoke: "The merchants stated that this breed of dog is very intelligent, guards houses well; possessing it to watch over you, my very self is more at peace."
Sighting the person caring for his own self in such a manner, how could Yan Si bear to reject? He thereupon said: "Then I will rear it."
Completing the handing over, RongCheng in a satisfied manner said: "Good, I entrust it back toward you; pray care for it truly well."
Obtaining that, Yan Si indeed was joyful to the ultimate degree; he with a fresh smile stood up to embrace tightly upon RongCheng, saying: "Thanking Eldest brother, you are the best."
RongCheng also wrapped his arms across to embrace upon Yan Si, patting upon his back for a short while, and then left right away.
Awaiting the person to depart, only then did Yan Si open the small cage to embrace the puppy into his bosom, rocking it identical to soothing a small child.
Not long afterward, Xiao Yi stepped beside Yan Si's side, extending his hand to rub upon the puppy's head, saying: "Master, it is lovable to a point of being lost completely; the fur is furthermore very thick, touching it is truly pleasant."
Yan Si let out a smile, looking at it, and then began to ponder: "I think we ought to establish for it a name."
Xiao Yi naturally also concurred, asking: "Then what do you intend to establish its name as?"
"What name?" Yan Si embraced the small dog, departing back and forth, touching and stroking for a long while; suddenly exactly as though having just thought out something, he thereupon said: "Mao Zi… Or call it Mao Zi then."
"Mao Zi!?" Xiao Yi instantly possessed a short bit of astoundment, saying: "Is not Mao Zi a cat?"
But this conversely was a dog, and a male one completely; for what cause did he call it in such a manner?
This matter Xiao Yi naturally understood not; Yan Si again said: "Calling it in such a manner is for it to diminish its resemblance to a wolf; afterward it will be as gentle as a cat."
Xiao Yi truly was incapable of thoroughly understanding what manner of reasoning this was…
Yan Si raised Mao Zi up high, further than his own head, and then gazed at it; he shook its plump physical frame that was identical to a caterpillar, smilingly calling: "Mao Zi… Mao Zi…"
Mao Zi's eyes, which were wide and round, suddenly possessed a short bit of narrowing, manifesting clearly disdain dedicated toward its master; instantly it extended its snout to spray water straight into his face.
Unexpectedly having water sprayed into his face, Yan Si in panic cast Mao Zi away, clutching upon his own eyes: "Ah… ah… blinded my eyes already… blinded my eyes already…"
"Ah… Master, be careful!!!" The moment Mao Zi had just been cast away by Yan Si, it thereupon was caught and received by Xiao Yi; he lightly placed it down and then rapidly assisted his master to wash his face.
At this time, he began to sense that there was about to be a massive storm at this place…
