Longmao cub Yin Zan watched through a mirror as the noblewoman Nala died in childbirth, leaving behind the hungry Twelfth Prince, Yin Zan. Kangxi worked diligently to raise the child, playing both father and mother, but somehow the boy died at just two years old.
So pitiful.
The Longmao cub decided to transmigrate over and help him.
But someone hit him over the head during the journey. When he arrived, he was a baby with no memories, and all he knew was that he was a Longmao cub.
With a second chance at life, Kangxi was determined to be a good nanny this time and raise the Twelfth Prince properly!
But why did it feel like... the more he raised him, the more wrong he turned out?
Little skit:
Longmao cub: Papa, Papa, your son wants some delicious, juicy alfalfa grass...
Kangxi was deeply confused: "..." Why would a perfectly good human want to eat grass? Are you a calf or a bunny?
Longmao cub: Papa, Papa, your son wants to climb a really, really tall tree!
Kangxi was completely baffled: "..." Did I get something wrong? Let's check the parenting manual. Good grief, the only ones raised this way are monkeys!
Longmao cub: Papa, Papa, I can't use water to bathe. I need sand!
Kangxi was astonished: "..." What in the world is sand? You bathe with sand instead of water?!
The Longmao cub cried pitifully: Papa's a big dummy! You don't even know how to raise a kid! You never give me what I want! And you promised you'd take good care of me!
Kangxi was embarrassed: Well, this kid turned out all wrong. Is that my fault?
Little skit 1
One day, a Longmao appeared in the imperial court, leaping onto the dragon throne with a chirp and sitting there full of energy. The officials were so shocked they nearly screamed out loud, forgetting all etiquette!
A certain official: Your Majesty, why are you raising such a huge rat?
Yin Zan looked up at his father with a wounded expression.
Kangxi: That's my son. He's a Longmao, not a rat! The weather's getting cold, so your whole family can lose their jobs...
The official fell to his knees and kowtowed: Your Majesty, I have a filthy mouth. I'm the one with the rat-like face!
Little skit 2
The Longmao cub was captured and forced to work as a little shop greeter, wearing a small sign around his neck every day.
Little Yin Zan: Customers, why not buy something tasty~
The shopkeeper was too stingy. After working hard all day, the cub's daily pay was one carrot~
Theme: Take good care of the little cub
