Gray Wolf and Shadow One glanced at each other and thought secretly: My Lord’s appetite is really good!
My Lord had spoken, so they didn’t dare to eat the noodles Ghost Doctor had made. However, their stomachs rumbled involuntarily as they watched My Lord eat with such relish.
“I won’t eat the noodles Ghost Doctor made. I will go to the kitchen to look for sothing else to eat. “Gray Wolf said and walked to the kitchen, and brought so dim sum out.
When Feng Jiu saw this, she couldn’t help but smiled. She sat down at the table and with a hand propping up her chin, her heart felt warm and happy as she watched the man in front of her eating noodles. When he finished the bowl of noodles, she said: “Let’s go for a walk! To digest the food.”
She held his hand and stood up then said to the two people at the side: “Since you’ve not eaten yet, go and have sothing to eat. There’s no need to follow us, nothing will happen in the palace.” Saying that, she left with Xuanyuan Mo e.
After he watched the two of them leave, Gray Wolf put the food down on the table and sat down to eat. He asked: “Shadow One, do you think His Majesty is satisfied with Ghost Doctor or not satisfied?”
Shadow One sat down and said: “Who knows what His Majesty thinks? He should be observing her to determine if the Ghost Doctor is qualified to be the woman beside My Lord.”
Gray Wolf nodded and said in agreent: “Yes you’re probably right, as Country Ruler is the ruler of the Xuanyuan Empire, and also My Lord’s father. Although he said that his relationship with My Lord is not quite harmonious, he would not allow the woman beside My Lord to be weak. Any father would want to find the best and most outstanding woman for his son.”
“My Lords will deal with their own affairs. We don’t need to worry about that.” Shadow One said and glanced at Gray Wolf who was sitting opposite him: “Why aren’t you using chopsticks and using your hands to eat?”
Gray Wolf had eaten a crystal dumpling and was about to reach for another one with his hands when he heard what he said. He stopped for a mont and said: “It’s more convenient like this. Besides, I forgot to get chopsticks earlier so I will just do without them.”
As soon as he had finished speaking, another crystal dumpling was stuffed into his mouth. When he saw that he wasn’t eating, he asked: “Why aren’t you eating? Aren’t you hungry?”
“I’m not a wolf, I don’t eat with my claws.” Shadow One stood up and walked to the kitchen. Not long later, he ca out with a pair of chopsticks, a pot of stewed soup and so snacks.
“Why didn’t you bring a pair of chopsticks?” Gray Wolf stared at him and asked.
Shadow One glanced at him: “Didn’t you say it was convenient to use your claws? Anyway, you’ve nearly finished eating.”
“What claws? This is my hand.” He glared at him and finished his food in a few mouthfuls then stood up: “You take your ti to eat!” Then turned and left in big strides.
Shadow One ignored him and continued eating on his own.
Early the next morning, before the sun was completely bright, Feng Jiu left the courtyard and went to the Imperial Garden.
She hadn’t forgotten her promise to pick dew today to make tea for the Country Ruler. Although this was sothing that other people could do, since he had specifically ordered her to do it, she had no choice but to wake up early.
She arrived at the Imperial Garden yawning and looked at the delicate flowers in the garden and the dew condensed on the petals. She wondered, did other people collect the dew drop by drop? If that were the case, she wouldn’t even be able to collect enough dew over a few mornings for one pot of tea.
After she thought about it, she took out a bottle to collect the flower dew and put it in the middle of the flowers.
