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

Chapter 192: Is it possible to capture this flower bear alive?

What do you mean by "this bear understands human speech"?

It's obvious that you little fools are too stupid to understand what I'm saying, so I'll just have to accommodate you.

When the cook realized that Ah Bao wanted rice, not people, he immediately calmed down.

He hurriedly stood up, bowed, and said to Abao, "Grandpa Black and White, please wait a moment, I'll bring out another bucket right away."

After the cook finished speaking, he hurried into the house and soon brought out a bucket of freshly steamed rice.

As soon as the white cloth covering the bucket was lifted, the steaming rice released a fragrant aroma, making all the homeless people on the street swallow their saliva.

Without any hesitation or concern for the heat, Abao plunged his iron mouth into the bucket and began to devour the food.

The refugees who had scattered and fled in fear were now peeking out from every nook and cranny to observe A Bao's every move.

The Five Cities Garrison was also at a loss, unsure of what to do with this ferocious beast.

They were unsure whether Abao would continue to hurt people after finishing his meal, or turn around and leave.

But it's definitely not right to let such a huge beast roam around the capital!

If anyone is truly injured, then it is the responsibility of the Five Cities Garrison.

One of the team members ordered, "Quickly tell General Lu about this. This beast is too big. With just the few of us, we are probably no match for it."

"If we cannot defeat it quickly and provoke its ferocity, it may slaughter the people!"

The man immediately put away his spear and turned back to the Wucheng Military Command Office to report the news.

At this moment, Abao had already eaten most of the rice in the wooden bucket when a group of people suddenly rushed out from behind the porridge stall.

Mei Xingyue sat in a wheelchair, protected by the Imperial Guards behind her, making quite a spectacle!

Mei Xingyue was initially quite interested in providing benefits to the people at the soup kitchen.

But after a few days, whenever she appeared, the refugees would kneel down and shout "Goddess!" and over time Mei Xingyue grew tired of it.

After that, she hid in the warm room that the soup kitchen had specially prepared for her and wouldn't come out.

Outside, snow was falling heavily, and refugees lined up to receive food. She lit incense behind them, comfortably nestled on the couch with her eyes closed, resting.

If someone hadn't come to report that there was trouble outside, Mei Xingyue would never have come out.

She sat lazily in her wheelchair, not yet fully conscious, when she suddenly saw A Bao's enormous figure!

In Mei Xingyue's eyes, a bear the size of a small mountain was squatting on the ground, feasting on its meal.

The scene was so shocking that she sat up straight and couldn't help but rub her eyes.

"This... I've transmigrated? How can there be a flower bear in this world? And such a huge flower bear at that!"

Mei Xingyue was shocked, and even her mind wavered.

She had already figured out this world by leaving the Crown Prince to travel around the Great Zhou.

Therefore, she was absolutely certain that there were no flower bears in this world!

Even Master Yuanxing, after hearing Mei Xingyue's description, said that he had never seen such an animal before, nor in any blessed land.

Yuanxing even joked, "Is this kind of ferocious beast something you imagined? A black and white bear? This humble monk has never seen one before."

Upon hearing Yuanxing's words, Mei Xingyue naturally stopped worrying about it.

She didn't know much about the flower bear either; she just suddenly thought of it and asked Yuanxing.

Since even Yuanxing says there is no such thing, it proves that the Great Zhou Dynasty is very different from the world she lives in!

But now, she actually saw a spotted bear with her own eyes in the capital!

Although this spotted bear was several times larger than the ones she had seen in the mountains before, its unique black and white fur made it very recognizable.

Mei Xingyue immediately wanted to grab A Bao!

"Imperial Guards, capture this bear alive!"

The Imperial Guards sent by the Crown Prince to protect Mei Xingyue were all stunned.

This beast is so huge, how could Mei Xingyue let them capture it alive?

If Zhu Zhen, the leader of the Imperial Guard, were here, it would be fine, as he is a third-rank martial artist. However, all these people have are waist knives.

Judging from the thick hide of this black and white beast, even the Imperial Guards were unsure whether a knife could cut through its skin.

“Madam, we do not know the strength of this ferocious beast. Moreover, it is currently in the streets of the capital. If we provoke it, it will surely cause countless deaths and injuries among the people.”

"Madam, please don't forget that this act of benefiting the people is for the sake of His Highness the Crown Prince. If we were to actually cause injury or death to the people, the Crown Prince would surely be attacked by the censors."

Although the Golden Guard's advice made sense, Mei Xingyue was very unhappy with it.

She turned to look at the other person and sneered, "You're quite clever. Aren't you just afraid of dying? What excuse are you making?"

The Imperial Guards were somewhat angry upon hearing this, but dared not show it.

This black and white beast just kept its head down and ate rice; it might actually be a vegetarian at all.

So why would they risk provoking the other party if they haven't done anything to hurt them yet?

The thought of the fact that even the leader of the Imperial Guard, Zhu Zhen, had been forced to kneel by Mei Xingyue left this Imperial Guard with no choice but to swallow his resentment.

“What you say is true, Madam. We are not skilled enough and do not have the ability of Commander Zhu. I am afraid we will not be able to capture this ferocious beast.”

Mei Xingyue was somewhat annoyed; she was very curious about this flower bear!

Before the time travel, the villagers all said that this guy was a vegetarian and had a mild temper, but after all, he was a bear and would bite if provoked.

Whenever a spotted bear comes out of the mountains and wanders into the village, all the tenants work together to capture it.

All for that one bite of meat!

The paws of the spotted bear are also valuable; they can be cut off and sold to wealthy people in the city.

However, the flower bear doesn't appear often, and even if you manage to catch one, Mei Xingyue won't get a piece of the meat.

Because she is a woman, how can a woman eat meat?

Upon hearing the Imperial Guards say that they were not confident of capturing him alive, Mei Xingyue's heart stirred.

"What if we don't capture it alive? I want its fur and bear paws."

The Imperial Guards looked troubled. Capturing such a huge beast alive or dead was basically the same difficulty!

Just as Jin Wuwei was pondering how to reply to Mei Xingyue and dissuade her from the idea...

A group of people rushed in from one end of the street, and the leader was none other than General Lu Zhiyan!

Ever since Lu Zhiyan learned that Qiu Ming had been promoted to Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he had been filled with resentment.

He despised Qiu Ming for clinging to the eldest princess's leg and following the lead of a woman.

But deep down, he was jealous that this opportunity didn't belong to him!

Although his father-in-law was still the prime minister, he gradually withdrew from the center of power and often even claimed to be ill and did not attend court.

This also affected his official career.

Ning He, Lu Zhiyan's wife, was even more irritating. She used to seem gentle and charming, and was willing to ask Prime Minister Ning to help him with his career.

But ever since he brought Su Yunjin back to the capital, Ning He has stopped running around for him.

No matter how he hinted or suggested, Ning He seemed to be blind to it!

With the political situation in the court constantly changing and even the position of crown prince seemingly in jeopardy, Lu Zhiyan sensed an opportunity.

He felt that he had to seize every opportunity to climb up the ranks and make sure to crush Qiu Ming under his feet!

So, after hearing his subordinates report that there was a problem with the soup kitchen where the goddess was distributing soup.

Without a second thought, Lu Zhiyan rushed over himself.

To this end, he even brought a large wire mesh to ensure that the black and white animal could be captured alive.

He only wanted to seize this opportunity and cling to the Crown Prince's coattails!
