Published at 7th of September 2022 05:34:24 AM

Second Master Shen asked, “What should we do now?”

Jin Wang pondered for a moment and said, “This prince will ask someone to investigate further to see if such things are happening in other places. We should release news about grandfather being seriously ill. Second uncle can also show an anxious and worried appearance outside.”

“Your Highness intends to beat him at his own game?”

Jin Wang nodded. “Yong Wang must be planning to make a big move. We might as well show some weakness to see what he intends to do. As for the other matters, grandfather and second uncle can just wait for this prince's news.”

“Do as His Highness said.” Duke Ningguo made a decision.

Second Master Shen nodded.

Jin Wang looked at Doctor Liu again, “Is there an antidote to this poison?”

This was the second time for him to come in contact with this poison. Doctor Liu's explanation had made him worried. Although it wasn't likely for him to get poisoned, it wasn't easy to say for his allies. In this critical time, everyone was needed so as long as it was possible, loss should be avoided.

“Indeed, this poison is too cruel. If one day we really have to confront Yong Wang's people face to face, we will definitely suffer a lot.” Second Master Shen smacked his lips.

Doctor Liu stroked his beard and said, “This kind of poison is not too difficult to detoxify. There should be something that can resolve this poison within ten meters of the poison's origin. The problem is that the onset of the poison is too fast and there is barely any time to administer an antidote.”

“Then you can make the antidote?”

“Yes.”

“Then this matter will be left to you. Preferably, make it in large quantities. As for the manpower and medicinal materials, talk to An Yi.”

Doctor Liu nodded.

Jin Wang stood up. “Grandfather, second uncle, this prince will get going.”

“Your Highness attends to a myriad of affairs every day, there's no need to worry about this old man.”

“Grandfather, take care of your health…” After a pause, Jin Wang said again, “Xiaobao's still waiting for you to teach him martial arts.”

Duke Ningguo was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter. “Good, good, good. With these words of yours, grandfather will definitely take care of his health.”

Duke Ningguo was seriously ill, and the Shen Family was having trouble sleeping and eating. Second Master Shen was going around seeking famous doctors and had even made a trip to the palace.

Emperor Hongjing was sympathetic and sent several imperial physicians. The imperial physicians all said that Duke Ningguo's condition wasn't good. He had been overstimulated and he should be fine if he manages to pull through this time. But if he couldn't make it, his life may be lost. After all, he was getting on in age.

Hearing this, Emperor Hongjing was silent for a while, then bestowed down all sorts of rare medicinal materials.

Since Duke Ningguo was ill, Xiaobao could no longer stay in Duke Ningguo Manor.

Xiaobao came back with a small kitten

This kitten was the child of the tabby cat, and the tabby cat was also getting older. According to Duchess Ningguo, she was already a teenager based on her age. This little kitten was born from her last litter. A while ago, she had wandered out the manor and it was unknown which wildcat she was impregnated by.

The little kitten looked the exact same as its mother. They were both tabby cats. At a little over a month old, it was only the size of a palm. Xiaobao didn't tell anyone about it and had brought it back home in secret. Yaoniang, who didn't see her son for many days, immediately started hugging Xiaobao and kissing his little cheeks. It wasn't until she heard the little kitten's cries that she let go.

At last, she found that the sound had come from the small kitten hidden under Xiaobao's clothes. Yaoniang then realized why Xiaobao had tried to push himself away from her. It turned out that he was scared of squishing the kitten by accident.

“Where did you get this from?” Looking at the kitten falling onto the Kang mattress and struggling to get up, Yaoniang turned to look at Xiaobao then at Jin Wang.

Xiaobao had come back with Jin Wang.

Jin Wang was also puzzled and turned to look at Fucheng.

Fucheng rubbed his chin, “Could it be the kitten of the tabby cat? This old servant only saw that one cat at Duke Ningguo Manor.”

Xiaobao nodded and stretched out his chubby hand to pet the kitten. Then he said to Yaoniang, “Huahua's kitten…” 

It was really the kitten of the tabby cat!

The adults looked at each other.

Yaoniang, whose communication with her son was relatively smooth, took the initiative to ask Xiaobao. “Why did Xiaobao bring the kitten back? The old cat must be looking for it now.”

Xiaobao shook his head repeatedly. “Huahua gave…”

“You mean this little kitten was given to you by the old cat?”

Xiaobao nodded hurriedly.

He also didn't know why the fat old tabby had brought the kitten to him. As soon as the kitten was brought over the fat old tabby immediately ran off. Thinking of the heroic deed that the cat had done, he was moved by the idea of ​​raising a cat himself. The cuteness of this little thing had also moved him.

“Then you want to raise it?” Yaoniang looked at her son.

Xiaobao nodded.

“Then raise it.”

The next few days, Yaoniang and Xiaobao were busy raising the kitten.

Actually, it was because Yaoniang had nothing to do and was bored to death so she went looking for something to do.

With Xiaobao, they made a bed for the kitten as well as a small blanket. She then picked a food bowl for it by herself and found a few toys that Xiaobao didn't like to play with. Because the kitten couldn't eat yet and could only drink milk, she ordered someone to buy a goat back.

By the way, the kitten was also given a name, Huahua.

Since it was brought home by Xiaobao, he insisted on the kitten to be called Huahua.

Jin Wang was also very busy, always going out, and his expression was always anxious. Although Jin Wang had a cold temperament, he never liked to vent his anger on others. But over the past few days, who knew what had happened. People around him were often reprimanded, and it wasn't only a few people getting punished. Even Yaoniang didn't dare to go anywhere anymore.

Time passed by like running water. In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Emperor Hongjing's fiftieth birthday celebration.
