"Are two fish enough? If not, we can ask them to catch more."
Yi Huan looked at all the people here; two fish probably wouldn't be enough.
"More! Huanhuan wants more!"
Nangong Chiyu whistled again, and two eagles circled over the river, searching for prey.
A little while later, they caught two more fish.
"Wow! Prince Yu, is the eagle you gave me this powerful too?"
The eagle that Yi Huan kept in the cage wasn't as big as the two outside; it must still be a juvenile.
"I trained the one I gave you. Hunting is the most basic skill. Eagles are suited to soaring in the air, not to being kept in cages all the time."
“Huanhuan, since you brought it here, let it out and take this opportunity to let it catch some fish for you.”
Yi Huan also wanted to witness the eagle she raised, and said to An An behind her.
"An'an, go and get my eagle."
"Yes, Miss."
When Su Luo saw Nangong Chiyu using an eagle to catch fish with Yi Huan, she sighed in admiration, realizing how impressive it was to know how to train an eagle.
Soon, An'an brought over the cage containing the eagle and handed it to Nangong Chiyu, who then released the young eagle inside.
Having been confined for so long, it was a little shy when it was first released. Nangong Chiyu stroked it a couple of times, and it calmed down.
He stretched out his arm, and the little eagle immediately stood on it. Then, with a gentle lift, Nangong Chiyu lifted the little eagle, and it flew over the river like the two eagles.
It got used to the two eagles for a while and quickly learned to hunt. It caught a small fish and threw it in front of Yi Huan. It even circled in front of Yi Huan for a moment, as if waiting for its owner to praise it.
"Prince Yu, how do you communicate with them? Can I learn from you?"
Yi Huan thought it was great to have an obedient eagle, which could not only protect her but also be her pet.
She has the eagle; now all she lacks is the ability to control it.
"If Huanhuan wants to learn, I'll teach you."
As he spoke, Nangong Chiyu took out a small whistle from his clothes and handed it to Yi Huan.
“Training an eagle takes time, especially a wild eagle. The one I gave you has been trained and is quite obedient.”
I just need to teach you how to control it, and give you some instructions. You also need to let it out frequently; you can't keep it locked all the time.
"Okay! Huanhuan got it."
Su Zuo was in charge of starting the fire, and thirty Red Feather Army soldiers joined Su Luo in grilling the fish. With so many people, the fish was grilled quickly.
With Nangong Chiyu around, Su Luo felt at ease letting Yi Huan learn to control the eagle.
"Yu Wang Huanhuan, it's time to eat. We'll set off after we finish."
Su Luo came over and called the two of them to dinner. During this time, Nangong Chiyu let Yi Huan's little eagle fly freely.
Let it go hunting with the two larger ones; they won't fly far away.
After eating dry rations and grilled fish, and having traveled for another two days, Nangong Chiyu said he also wanted to go to Yongle County.
Now that they had made contact with the eagle, Yi Huan wanted to learn how to train eagles from him, so she went straight to Nangong Chiyu's carriage, and An An went with her.
Now Su Luo occupies the carriage all by herself, and it's quite quiet.
After seven days, they arrived at Lucheng to rest. From Lucheng, it would only take one day and one night to reach Yongle County.
Staying at an inn in Lucheng is much more comfortable than staying at a post station.
After entering the city, the thirty-odd Chiyu soldiers who followed Nangong Chiyu also changed into civilian clothes, but each of them carried a long sword, making them look like henchmen protecting their master.
"Let's stay at this inn. We stayed here when we went to the capital, and we thought it was pretty good."
"You can make the decision!"
As a general, Nangong Chiyu had slept on tree branches and stones, and was not picky about his living environment.
"Okay! We'll stay here then."
It was only the hour of You (5-7 PM), and it was still early, but if they continued walking, they wouldn't reach the next inn until dawn. So Su Luo and the others decided to stay in Lucheng.
She was quite excited just thinking that she would see her son in two days.
She didn't tell Yanchuan when they were going back, only that they should go back soon, as she wanted to give Yanchuan and her mother-in-law a surprise this time.
"Objective, it's you again. I remember you."
As soon as Su Luo arrived, the shopkeeper recognized her. Someone who could get the Fu family to come and apologize to her was no ordinary person.
"Shopkeeper, do you still remember me?"
The innkeeper, being a businessman, naturally greeted his customers with a smile: "I remember, I remember. Are you here for a meal or to stay the night?"
"We need two superior rooms. Look at all these people behind us, can your hotel arrange that?"
The shopkeeper looked at dozens of people, but luckily, there weren't many people in his shop today, and there were still many rooms available.
"No problem, please be objective."
Su Luo originally wanted to take Yi Huan back to her room, but she seemed unwilling to leave Nangong Chiyu's side, engrossed in learning how to train eagles.
Along the way, people believed that Yi Huan was Nangong Chiyu's daughter.
"Mother, Prince Yu and I are going out for a bit, we'll be back soon."
Su Luo followed the two to the entrance of the inn, where the two, along with six Red Feather soldiers, boarded the carriage.
"Huanhuan, what are you going out for?"
Yi Huan poked her head out and said, "Let's go buy a new whistle. The one Prince Yu gave me is broken."
After saying that, he left without looking back. As expected, Yi Huan is now particularly concerned about things related to eagle training.
Yi Huan didn't want things to be like this either. Although she was young, she had her own ideas. Although they were traveling with Nangong Chiyu now, they might be separated tomorrow.
That's why she didn't want to waste a single second and wanted to learn this skill as soon as possible, otherwise she would feel very bad if she became a half-baked person like she is now.
"Huanhuan, I promise I will teach you. You don't need to rush."
Nangong Chiyu felt that he was learning too fast and had not handled many details well, which was counterproductive.
"I want to master it as soon as possible, and I will practice more in the future, so please rest assured, Your Highness."
This silly child!
How could Nangong Chiyu not guess Yi Huan's little scheme? He could only spoil his own daughter.
When she realizes that he will never leave her, she probably won't cling to him like this anymore.
The two went to several general stores but couldn't find a suitable whistle. It wasn't until the store owner told them that if they wanted a clear, resonant whistle, it would be best to make it out of silver.
They were also told that Fengjinlou in Lucheng sold such whistles, and that the two of them should go and take a look.
The Phoenix Gold Pavilion was full of women, and Nangong Chiyu's entry caused a stir.
"Where is this young master from? I don't think I've seen him in Lucheng before?"
"He's so tall and handsome!"
Yi Huan found it annoying to see a group of women swooning over Nangong Chiyu. She took Nangong Chiyu's hand and walked directly in front of them.
Moreover, Yi Huan and Nangong Chiyu look alike; strangers would all say they are father and daughter.
"Such a beautiful person, and her daughter is already so grown up, everyone should just give up on her."
"Sigh, it seems that all the good-looking people are already married."
Nangong Chiyu has deep phoenix eyes and a strikingly handsome appearance; wherever he goes, it's hard not to notice him.
He glanced at the crowd, and a group of women blushed, shyly covering their faces with handkerchiefs.
