Great, it's just a lackey, we're saved!

Chapter 198 Let the bears come!

Hearing Zhou Wei's voice, Zhu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew Zhou Wei would come!

Abao, on the other hand, was quite excited. He grabbed snowballs and threw them at Zhou Wei and the princess, baring his teeth and letting out howls.

Zhou Wei patted A Bao's head through the iron cage.

"Stop shouting, we'll call someone over later."

Zhu Qi said, "Don't worry, no one will come. Lu Zhiyan had those people watch over us, but as soon as Lu Zhiyan left, they went out to drink."

Upon hearing this, the eldest princess frowned deeply.

The Five City Garrison Commands guard the capital, yet their defenses are so lax.

Before Zhou Wei could even ask a question, the little monk began to talk at length about what had happened that day.

After hearing his description, the princess was somewhat shocked and looked at Abao with concern.

"Weiwei, no, we have to take Abao away now, otherwise they will feed it those obedient pills."

"I am not afraid that the Crown Prince will use A Bao to keep his position as heir apparent. What I am afraid of is that if A Bao eats Su Yunjin's food, he will probably lose his freedom from now on."

When Su Yunjin was experimenting with the elixir, she did not hide it from A Bao and the little monk.

In their view, Zhu Qi, this young monk, was not long for this world and there was nothing to worry about.

Ah Bao is an animal, so he can't understand what they're doing at all!

The pills were surprisingly effective. Mei Xingyue personally fed one to a stray cat and immediately felt a connection with it.

Upon seeing this, Lu Zhiyan exclaimed in amazement!

He also tried it on a dog, and the result shocked him.

After learning that the pill was effective, Mei Xingyue and Lu Zhiyan both felt some regret.

"If I had known this pill was so miraculous, I shouldn't have wasted it on a wild cat," Mei Xingyue said regretfully.

Lu Zhiyan also looked unwilling, "Yeah, if I had known the effect would be immediate, I would have fed it to a tiger. This wild dog is useless."

Seeing their reactions, Su Yunjin felt incredibly pleased!

Although she had never been interested in these beast-taming pills, seeing that two pills could make Mei Xingyue and Lu Zhiyan uncomfortable made her feel good.

Su Yunjin knew that although Mei Xingyue spoke sweetly, she actually had some doubts about her pills.

If that's the case, why did she kindly suggest they get a better animal?

Stray dogs and stray cats are a perfect match for Mei Xingyue and Lu Zhiyan.

One is a female cat that fawns over the prince, and the other is a stray dog ​​that wags its tail and begs for his favor.

They couldn't be more perfect!

Su Yunjin's mischievousness was amplified to an extreme degree, and she almost couldn't control her expression.

Mei Xingyue grew increasingly disgusted with the stray cat and ordered Lu Zhiyan, "General Lu, take this stray cat and dog out and kill them later."

Zhu Qi watched the experiment silently, utterly shocked.

He said to Zhou Wei and the Princess, "The cat and dog, after eating the pills fed to them by Lu Zhiyan and Mei Xingyue, immediately lost their wariness. I even saw a kind of intelligence in their eyes."

"I'm afraid that's their plan too, to have the Crown Prince personally feed A Bao the elixir, and to use A Bao's identity as a mythical beast to solidify the Crown Prince's position as heir apparent."

The princess grew increasingly worried as she listened, wishing she could take Abao and Zhu Qi away immediately.

Zhou Wei pondered for a moment, then looked at the panda that was still playing in the snow.

"Abao, do you know what they're planning to do?"

Abao glanced at Zhou Wei, bared his teeth, and howled twice, making Zhou Wei burst into laughter.

"You rascal, the princess is so worried about you, and you just ignore her?"

The eldest princess didn't quite understand what A Bao meant, but Zhou Wei and Zhu Qi did.

Zhou Wei explained, "Princess, it said it doesn't want to leave yet, it wants to go to the court assembly to play."

The eldest princess was shocked upon hearing this: "How can this be? Abao is just a bear, how could he know the wickedness of people's hearts?"

"It's okay if it's playful, but if something really goes wrong, it'll be too late for us to regret it."

Abao exhaled white breath from his nose, threw a snowball at the princess, and let out two howls.

It seems like he's explaining to the princess that there's nothing wrong with it!

Zhu Qi was also acting as the panda's translator at this time: "Princess, when they were feeding the pills just now, I heard Su Yunjin say that the pills only work if the animals eat them on their own. If they are forced to eat them, they will lose their effect."

"Mei Xingyue and Lu Zhiyan both stuffed pills into food to lure cats and dogs into eating them."

"What Abao means is that it can secretly leak the pills out of its mouth without anyone noticing, not even you, Princess."

Upon hearing this, the eldest princess stared wide-eyed at Abao.

She laughed helplessly: "Abao, did you vomit up all the pills I fed you yesterday?"

Abao lowered his head and played in the snow, pretending not to understand what the princess was saying.

Seeing its guilty look, the princess became even more certain that she had been deceived by this fellow!

"But when I was feeding you the medicine, I personally watched you take it. How did you manage to spit it out?"

Zhou Wei laughed when she heard this. Any dog ​​that's even slightly clever can secretly spit out its medicine.

Besides, Po is such a clever spirit beast!

The princess hadn't expected that the honest and simple-minded A Bao would try to outsmart her, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

"With A Bao being so clever, Lu Zhiyan and Mei Xingyue still dared to try and take advantage of him? That's just wishful thinking!"

"If that's the case, then I'd like to watch the show."

Since Abao didn't want to leave, Zhou Wei discussed it carefully with the Princess.

Then Zhou Wei reminded it: "Although you are smarter than the puppy, you still have to be very careful, otherwise you will really become the prince's puppet, and neither the princess nor I can save you."

Ah Bao patted his chest, looking confident.

This is a small matter, I can handle it with a flick of my wrist. Just wait and see what happens!

After confirming that Abao was alright, Zhou Wei patted the little monk's bald head.

"You can choose not to come, but you must come with us. Otherwise, the day of the Grand Assembly will be your death day."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qi stopped struggling, since his original intention was to protect the panda anyway.

Since Ah Bao is alright, he doesn't need to stay here.

With his bare hands, he bent the iron bars on the cage, and the little monk squeezed out through the gap!

Just as Zhou Wei was about to leave, she found that her clothes were being held by A Bao.

The black and white dumpling pointed to its mouth, looking like it was drooling.

Zhou Wei thought for a moment, then exchanged two large watermelons from her spatial storage and tossed them to it.

The princess was not surprised to see Zhou Wei take things out of thin air, but Zhu Qi's eyes widened. However, he was smart and did not ask any questions.

"There are only two, so hurry up and finish them before anyone notices. I'll make you something better after the grand assembly."

Ah Bao took the two watermelons, casually balanced one on his head, and used his bear paw to smash the other open before enjoying them.

While eating, she didn't forget to give Zhu Qi a subtle wink.

See? Zhou Wei knows to feed me the moment I make a move.

If this bear isn't her owner, then who is?

Zhu Qi chuckled and didn't expose him: "Yes, yes, you're right."

After the three left, Abao quickly finished eating the two watermelons, stretched, and lay down to sleep.

The next day, the Crown Prince, led by Mei Xingyue, came to A Bao alone.
