The news that the Empress Dowager had asked Noble Lady Yu to relocate spread within a few days.
Ye Zao heard about it while playing with Hua Sheng in the courtyard.
After running around the whole morning, Hua Sheng did not feel much like running anymore, perfect company for the pregnant Ye Zao.
"Hua Sheng, you're shedding a lot of fur," Ye Zao joked, poking Hua Sheng's belly.
Hua Sheng rolled over the wool rug at her feet.
In this section of the corridor in the courtyard, a wool rug was laid out just for them to play under the sun, human and dog alike.
Hua Sheng rolled a few times, then lay himself halfway across the embroidered shoes of Ye Zao.
"Tired already?" Ye Zao bent over to stroke him with a smile, "You followed Hongxin to the front all morning and then ran back. Did you go to play with the other dogs in the front?"
Hua Sheng raised his head and licked her hand.
"Good boy, come here," Ye Zao patted the railing beside her.
