"Go feed them." Yan Qiu suddenly waved his hand.
Sky Pivot?
Shi Sheng's gaze fell on the food box that Xuan Chen had placed on the edge.
"F * ck, you have seven crocodiles?"
He did not count how many crocodiles there were in the box, but it was definitely not a small number.
"Crocodile?" Yan Qiu seemed to have never heard of this name. He was a little surprised. "You named them?"
Although he was the one who raised them, he did not know what species they were.
"How could I come up with such an awesome name …" Shi Sheng was speechless. "… You don't know what they are?"
You dare to raise them if you don't know?
That was awesome!
"I caught them from the sea. They were quite obedient, so I raised them." Yan Qiu paused. "Crocodile … That's a good name."
Shi Sheng looked at the lake. At this moment, there were two crocodiles floating on the water. Their dark green backs seemed to reflect the sun's rays.
He could not tell how they were obedient at all.
What was wrong with his aesthetic standards?
Wait, were there crocodiles in the sea?
It was not strange to catch sharks, but to catch crocodiles … Unless they were near the coastline, there should not be any crocodiles in the deep sea.
"You caught seven crocodiles in one go. You're really something."
"There were only two at first. These are the result of reproduction," Yan Qiu replied slowly. "If you don't feed them, they will climb up."
Shi Sheng looked at the food box. Indeed, a crocodile was climbing up the steps of the pavilion. This crocodile was not very big. It was probably still a cub.
Shi Sheng really did not like this species. "You want me to stay?"
"Like you said, if I don't let you stay, will you leave?"
"No."
Yan Qiu lowered his eyes and did not say anything else.
Shi Sheng was silent for a while. He took the food box and threw the crocodile into the water. The splashing sound immediately attracted the attention of the other crocodiles. They swam over.
Yan Qiu watched as Shi Sheng poured food into the water. His eyes darkened. After Shi Sheng finished feeding the crocodile, he looked away nonchalantly and drank his cold tea.
…
"Your Highness, why did you agree to let her stay?"
Late at night, Xuanchen helped Yanqiu change her clothes and took the opportunity to ask this question. That woman was obviously up to something.
Most importantly, she was using Hong Jin's identity. Where did Hong Jin go?
"Can you beat her?"
Xuan Chen's hand paused. "She has a sword in her hand, and that sword … is very powerful. If I didn't have that sword, I would be more confident. "
Yan Qiu continued, "But you can't take that sword away."
When she came to the pavilion previously, she did not bring her sword. The sword was stuck in the soil by the shore. She tried to pull it out, but she could not. It was as if it had become one with the earth.
But when she came over, she easily pulled it out.
Yan Qiu put on a gauze dress. "So, it's best to put her under our nose now."
"The Ninth Prince definitely won't let this matter rest," Xuan Chen said with a frown. "Although the Ninth Prince has been keeping a low profile in recent years, he isn't someone who will swallow his anger. Even if what she said was true and she wasn't Hong Jin, she was still the one who did it to the Ninth Prince. "
The Ninth Prince was currently busy with the affairs of the Xia Kingdom and did not have time to be calculative. But once he was busy, how could he not be calculative?
Yan Qiu closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the laziness in her eyes had disappeared completely. It was as if she was wrapped in a layer of ice. She reached out and brushed the creases in her clothes. "She gave me a very good gift."
Yan Qiu did not elaborate and changed the topic. "Go and ask her what the sword is called."
Xuan Chen's mouth twitched. "Will she tell me?"
"Just tell her that I asked." Yan Qiu had a mysterious confidence. "She'll tell you."
"Yes."
…
Shi Sheng was still living in this courtyard. The guards outside hadn't been removed. Though to Shi Sheng, those guards were nothing more than decorations.
"Hong Jin."
Xuan Chen knocked on the door. The door was not closed. He stepped in and placed a basket in front of Shi Sheng. "His Highness wants you to embroider a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water in three days."
Shi Sheng: "…"
What did you say?
I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again!
These words were written all over Shi Sheng's face. Was Yan Qiu crazy?
Xuan Chen repeated, "His Highness said that if you can't finish the embroidery in three days, you don't have to follow him."
Shi Sheng stared at the embroidery needles in the basket. She had held many weapons before, but … she had only ever used these needles to kill people.
Yan Qiu was definitely crazy!
"Also, His Highness wants me to ask you, what's the name of your sword?" Xuan Chen looked at the Iron Sword that she had casually thrown on the ground and his mouth twitched.
"What's the name?" Shi Sheng had not yet recovered from the fear of the embroidery needles. She held her forehead and said, "Embroidery Sword."
What? Embroidery Sword? Xuan Chen was probably shocked by this name. What kind of name was this?
"Buzz!" Before Xuan Chen could react, the Iron Sword vibrated.
Forget about the previous names, what the hell was this Embroidery Sword? Master, if you continue to change my name like this, you will really lose me.
This sound frightened Xuan Chen. The sword actually vibrated on its own without anyone controlling it?
Shi Sheng obviously didn't care about the Iron Sword. The Iron Sword flew up from the ground and whooshed outside.
It wanted to run away from home!
Xuan Chen: "…"
"Your sword …" Xuan Chen found his voice after a long time. He was really too short-sighted in the past. His Highness was right, there was always someone better.
"It will come back on its own." Shi Sheng said weakly, "Did His Highness forget to take his medicine? Why did he want me to embroider?"
He raised a few crocodiles and named them after the Big Dipper.
Now he wanted her to embroider?
Was there something wrong with his brain?
Xuan Chen wanted to complain. His Highness had a sudden impulse. Not to mention embroidery, he might even want him to dress as a woman.
But he couldn't. He could only keep a straight face and say, "Finish it in three days."
He turned to leave. When he reached the door, he paused and brought up His Highness' even more outrageous request. "His Highness said that he wants to borrow your sword."
Shi Sheng looked up. "What do you want to borrow it for?"
Xuan Chen: "…" Could he say that His Highness just wanted to see if you would lend it to him?
"It's just a useless sword in your hands. Does he lack weapons? I have many, just pick one … "
"His Highness wants to borrow your sword."
Shi Sheng waved his hand to chase him away. "It's back. I'll let it go back on its own."
Xuan Chen: "…" Did that mean he agreed?
What did she mean by this attitude? Was she fearless? Was the sword in their hands really a useless sword like she said?
Thinking about how he couldn't pull it out at all, it seemed a lot more believable.
Xuan Chen left the room. Shi Sheng was still staring at Bai Juan in the basket.
Ask her to embroider?
She might as well rebel.
Shi Sheng decisively pushed the basket away. Whoever wanted to embroider could embroider. She wasn't going to embroider.
