After Yuchi Xi finished writing, she placed it on the high shelf nearby. She stretched and walked out. "Okay, okay, I'm going on patrol!"
Yuchi Yanchen was about to take a book from the high shelf when he saw a hand reach out from the side and take the book away. "Let me see if there is anything interesting happening."
Yuchi Yanchen retracted his raised hand, glanced at the official, and silently followed Yuchi Xi. Forget it, he would come back later to take a look at it.
Yuchi Xi took Yuchi Yanchen on patrol together. Yuchi Yanchen followed behind her and saw her greeting the people around her, chatting with them, and even snatching food from the children. He couldn't help laughing.
Of course, the little princess didn’t actually eat it after snatching it, but returned it to the child.
The children seemed to have gotten used to it and played this childish game with her.
He even saw some children secretly releasing water.
Yuchi Yanchen: ...This kid has been able to make girls happy since he was young.
Yuchi Xi played with them, with a smile on her face that never stopped. Yuchi Yanchen looked at her smile, and at that moment, he thought to himself that he had to protect this smile.
It was the little princess who saved him, which gave him the life he has today.
"Brother Yan Chen, here!" Yuchi Xi handed him a cute cat candy. The candy was drawn with sugar by a vendor at a stall nearby. The kitten was lifelike and very cute.
"This little kitty looks a lot like you!"
"Here you go."
Yuchi Yanchen took it and said, "It's so cute, I can't bear to eat it."
"Really?" Yuchi Xi also had one in her hand. She was a cute little dog, and she bit off its head in one bite. "But it's really delicious."
Sweet but not greasy!
"Uncle said he can also make flower baskets with sugar. Brother Yanchen, come and see, uncle is going to make it!"
Yuchi Xi squatted down and motioned him to squat down and take a closer look. Yuchi Yanchen walked beside her and squatted down. He was reluctant to eat the kitten in his hand, so he followed her line of sight and looked at the small table in front of him.
The uncle scooped a spoonful of sugar with a spoon and started drawing on the iron plate. His movements were quick and smooth. Soon, a flower basket base appeared, and as he moved, a three-dimensional flower basket appeared.
Yuchi Xi's eyes lit up, "Wow!!!"
"Uncle, I've never seen flower baskets made before when I came to your stall. Did you go there to learn the craft?"
The uncle smiled cheerfully, his simple and honest smile reassuring. "Yes, I went to my master to learn some things some time ago."
"Now I know more. I can even make a three-dimensional phoenix."
Yuchi Xi:!!!
"Wow!! A three-dimensional phoenix!"
Seeing her wanting expression, the uncle handed her the finished flower basket and said, "Little Princess, this is for you."
"Hey? Give it to me? Uncle, how much is the silver? I'll give it to you!"
"This is the fruit of your labor."
Yuchi Xi didn't want to get it for free.
Crafts are the most tiring. Such skills require repeated practice and talent.
"No need." The uncle lowered his eyes and said while pretending to be a phoenix, "If it weren't for you, there would be no peaceful Yuan Kingdom today."
"This candy is not worth much, as long as you like it."
Compared with national stability, what does this mean?
Yuchi Xi did not argue any more, but accepted it happily, and said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, uncle, you are such a good person!"
Yuchi Yanchen lowered his eyes and saw that she quickly put a few taels of silver into the cashier's basket at his stall.
The uncle was concentrating on drawing a phoenix and didn't notice.
Yuchi Xi did not say anything, and was staring at him painting the phoenix without blinking. If he had not deliberately looked at the little princess, he would not have noticed her movements.
Yuchi Yanchen lowered his eyes and smiled. He now deeply understood why Yuan was a powerful country and why the people of Yuan respected the little princess so much.
She deserves it.
The uncle's phoenix painting attracted many customers, and Yuchi Xi was there to help introduce it. After listening to her introduction, many people wanted some unique sugar paintings, so they asked the uncle if he could make them, for example: jade ruyi-shaped ones, flower-shaped ones, and some even asked if they could make one according to his appearance.
The uncle’s answer was affirmative, “As long as there is a reference, you can do it.”
Yuchi Xi's eyes were full of stars. "Wow! Uncle, you are really amazing!"
"Every profession has its top talent!"
The uncle was embarrassed by her praise, "I am satisfied in this life to receive such praise from the little princess."
Yuchi Xi covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "Hehe."
The uncle also gave the phoenix to Yuchi Xi. Yuchi Xi did not refuse, but she secretly stuffed a few taels of silver into it, and then asked Yuchi Yanchen to go with him.
She held the phoenix in her left and right hands, and the flower basket in her right hand, her eyes curved with a smile, "Which one will Xiaoba like?"
Yuchi Yanchen's mind flashed with Yuchi Feng's face, and he spoke softly, "If His Highness the Eighth Prince were to say so, he would definitely say that he likes anything given by the little princess."
Yuchi Xi thought about it for a moment and burst out laughing. "That sounds like something Xiaoba would say. Xiaoba is so cute."
"Yeah." Yuchi Yanchen agreed, "His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince is very cute."
But none of them were as cute as the little princess. His eyes fell on Yuchi Xi's face. The chubby little face made him want to reach out and pinch it gently.
But he held back.
He didn't want to scare the little princess. He knew that compared to other people, the relationship between him and the little princess was the weakest, and they spent the least time together.
Yuchi Yanchen's eyes fell on the sugar painting in his hand and he pursed his lips.
