Aying was already close to the ground. Lu Zheng pointed excitedly at Wang Zhi, who was running towards them, and shouted at him: "Fly a few more times, don't fly too high..."
A Ying screamed, not sure if it was because of reluctance, but she did not disappoint Lu Zheng anyway. Wang Zhi, who was chasing A Ying on the racecourse, saw A Ying flying higher and lower, and suddenly a light burst out from his eyes, and he continued to chase A Ying in the sky.
Lu Zheng hurriedly got off the horse, stepped on a piece of soft mud as soon as she got off the horse, and stumbled on her feet. Xiao Qi on the side quickly supported her with quick eyes and hands.
"I'm fine. Let's go find A Zhi..."
After Aying was forced to fly around the racecourse seven or eight times, Lu Zheng finally allowed him to come down. As soon as Aying landed, he flapped his wings a few times to express his dissatisfaction.
Seeing its resentful little eyes, Lu Zheng laughed loudly and said loudly: "Let Lian Xin give you extra food tonight."
Aying lowered her arrogant little head.
Wang Zhi, who was a few feet away, saw that Aying had fallen to the ground. Panting, he rushed towards Aying and hugged her legs and feet.
Lu Zheng and Xiao Qi were startled at the same time and looked at each other.
The two walked towards A Ying. Just when Lu Zheng reached A Ying, a sharp eagle chirped. Lu Zheng's mouth froze and he saw an extra feather in A Zhi's hand.
"Azhi." Lu Zheng called dotingly and helplessly.
Could it be that Ah Ying's disappearance in the past few days was all because she was afraid of having her hair pulled out by Ah Zhi?
"Azhi, don't..."
Lu Zheng thought for a while, pluck it out, pluck it out, A Ying has many feathers, as long as he can respond to the outside world, it's just that A Ying has a few fewer feathers.
Lu Zheng walked up to him and squatted down, asking him jokingly: "Why are you plucking so many of its feathers? Are you trying to make a shuttlecock?"
"But it's not as good as a rooster's feathers for making shuttlecocks. Have you ever seen a rooster? It crows, clucks... rooster's feathers..."
Wang Zhi, who was still holding Aying in one hand, suddenly turned his head slowly and looked at the source of the sound. His black pupils were filled with a layer of water, like a clear pool of water, making people unable to help but immerse themselves in it. in.
These were a pair of eyes as clean as a baby's. Lu Zheng's heart stopped for a moment, as if at this moment, Wang Zhi had truly seen her for the first time.
"...Azhi."
Wang Zhi's eyes only stayed on Lu Zheng for a short moment, and he continued to hold A Ying without letting go. Although he was not as agile as a normal child, he was no longer sluggish.
Lu Zheng turned to look at Xiao Qi, and excitedly motioned for him to look at A Zhi. Xiao Qi came closer and knelt down and smiled, signaling that he had seen it.
"Hey, where did such a big eagle come from?" Suddenly a voice interrupted Lu Zheng who was immersed in joy.
The two of them turned around at the same time and saw Xiao Chunan, the king of Lingyang, standing on the racecourse not far away, looking at Aying. Xiao Qi stood up and greeted him.
"Aying, please don't move, let him hug you for a while."
After Lu Zheng finished speaking, she walked towards Xiao Chunan and met him, "It's my eagle."
Xiao Chunan's eyes fell on Aying's huge body, "What did it eat? How did it grow so big?"
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I'm not picky about food. I eat everything, but my favorite is meat."
Lu Zheng has also fed it fruit, vegetarian food, and so on.
If trained well on the battlefield, they would be the best eyes of a scout. Xiao Qi could tell what his father was thinking as soon as he looked at his expression. He reached out and pulled Xiao Chunan's sleeve.
Xiao Chunan laughed and walked towards Aying.
Wang Zhi was still holding A Ying, and he didn't know if Xiao Chunan's aura was too strong. Before he could get closer, A Ying's wings suddenly opened and she flew into the air.
Wang Zhi sat down on the ground, as if he didn't know why A Ying flew away again. His expression was confused and aggrieved. This was the richest expression Lu Zheng had ever seen on his face.
Lu Zheng stepped forward to pick him up and coaxed him twice before looking at A Ying, who was hovering in the sky, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Zheng saw that Xiao Chunan seemed to have something to say to Xiao Qi, otherwise he would not have come to the racecourse to find him, so Lu Zheng took Wang Zhi back.
Xiao Chunan's eyes fell on the figure of Lu Zheng, one big and one small. With longing in his eyes, he said to Xiao Qi beside him: "Aci can give me a baby in a few years..."
When he met Xiao Qi's speechless expression, Xiao Chunan laughed, patted his shoulder, and took a long breath.
"I've thought about that scene many times..."
He is away from the capital all the year round, and Xiao Qi is very lonely in the capital. If he gets married in a few years, it would be nice to have someone to keep him company.
Xiao Qi tugged at his sleeves and asked with his eyes why he came to see him?
"There will be a palace banquet tomorrow on New Year's Eve. I have already informed His Majesty, so you don't need to go to the palace. You can just stay at home. Daddy will come back early to accompany you."
Xiao Qi nodded, and another sigh came from his ears.
"Your Majesty... is not a legitimate son, nor does he have the prestige of an eldest brother. As a younger brother inherits the throne from his elder brother, he will always be compared with others. He has been constrained by his relatives for so many years..."
"If dad doesn't help him, our fate will be the same in the future." Therefore, he can only fight abroad all year round, and when there is no war, he has to seek medical treatment for Xiao Qi.
"Aci, daddy...I'm sorry for you."
Xiao Qi has been in many troubles since he was a child and was frequently poisoned. He didn't know why, and he could guess who did it, but he has never found conclusive evidence.
Even if they make a big fuss and insist on getting to the bottom of it, the final result will be nothing more than a scapegoat prepared by the person behind it.
In the past, this kind of thing didn't happen.
Xiao Chunan felt guilty. He only had such a son. He was invincible on the battlefield, but he could not protect his son well in the whirlpool of the capital.
Xiao Qi stared at his father in front of him, smiled slightly, and shook his head. Is there anything right or wrong between father and son?
Xiao Chunan touched his head lovingly, "Do you want to go back to Lingyang City? Daddy will send you back to Lingyang City after the new year."
Think about it, how can this place compare to Lingyang City? But when Xiao Qi thought about the deal with Song Siwen, he temporarily gave up on this idea.
He is the prince of Lingyang. Even if he is hiding in Lingyang now, he will still not be able to escape the whirlpool of the capital in the future.
Seeing that Xiao Qi didn't nod, Xiao Chunan understood.
"Dad knows. If you want to go back at any time, just ask Xiao Fuzi to go to the palace and inform His Majesty. Your Majesty will allow you to live in Lingyang permanently."
Xiao Qi nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Let's go back and play chess with daddy. Let me see if my Aci has improved again?"
Xiao Chunan hasn't been back for a long time. Every time he sees Xiao Qi, he always talks a lot. On the way back, he asked him again: "How old is Miss Lu this year? Is she married?"
Xiao Qi was stunned, wondering why his father asked about this?
He pointed at himself and stretched out two fingers.
"I'm two years older than you, so I'll be seventeen after the new year."
