afternoon.
Situ Xiu took his eldest and third sisters to play in Xiuhe Village. They were both very surprised when they saw Arcanine for the first time.
When they heard him talk about the process of taming Arcanine, they were both shocked and looked incredulous.
"I named it Thanos, which means the overlord who destroys the world."
Arcanine: “..........”
The third sister, Situ Yue, was surprised: "Thanos! What a domineering name!"
The eldest princess Situ Qing did not say anything. She looked at Arcanine and could not tell what was so powerful about it. However, it looked quite majestic.
The third princess wanted to ride Arcanine, so Situ Xiu let Arcanine carry her and stroll around the manor.
After playing for a while, the eldest princess wanted to go to the fields, so Situ Xiu took them both to the fields.
Seeing farmland and crops for the first time, the third princess was quite excited and had a lot of fun.
The eldest princess was observing the crops and seemed very interested in these new agricultural products. Along the way, she kept asking Situ Xiu about the uses of these crops.
For example: The peanut plant looks like green leaves. Can these leaves be fried and eaten?
Situ Xiu replied: Peanuts grow in the ground, and the leaves on top cannot be eaten.
Upon hearing this, the eldest princess's calm face showed surprise.
There are tomatoes, watermelons, strawberries...
We played until the afternoon, almost forgetting the time, and only returned to Xiuhe Village when the sun set and night was about to fall.
For dinner, there are steamed potatoes and meat, spicy potato slices, roasted chicken with potatoes, Kung Pao diced potatoes, dry pot potatoes, French fries, stewed potatoes with meat, hot and sour shredded potatoes...
"Wow, there are so many delicious foods. They smell so good."
Situ Xiu saw that the third sister Situ Yue's eyes lit up, she licked her lips, swallowed a few times, and looked like a little foodie.
"Third sister, you're welcome. I've already ordered someone to pack the potatoes. You can take them back to the palace anytime."
Situ Xiu smiled and prepared ten tables of potato banquets in the evening, one for them and the remaining nine for the eldest princess's subordinates.
"The fourth brother is still the best."
The third sister Situ Yue smiled sweetly, then suddenly thought of something and said distressedly, "It would be great if I could stay here forever, so I can have food every day."
"No." The eldest princess Situ Qing's face turned cold.
"The Empress said that you are still young and are not allowed to leave the palace for too long. Today, you can leave the palace because I am with you."
Situ Yue curled her lips but did not refute.
The atmosphere was a bit strange, and Situ Xiu quickly said, "Eat some food, Third Sister. These are hot and sour potatoes."
"Mm, it's delicious, sour and spicy."
Situ Yue picked up the shredded potatoes and ate them with relish, then steamed potatoes and fried French fries...she ate faster and faster.
Situ Xiu was stunned.
This little foodie's appetite is twice, if not three times, his.
After the meal, it was dark outside and the three of them were full and satisfied.
"Fourth brother, the food here is really good." Situ Yue commented with satisfaction.
"Third sister, come often when you have time."
Situ Xiu smiled, and suddenly remembered something. He took out a stack of banknotes and handed them to his eldest sister Situ Qing.
"Big sister, this is money."
"Yes." Situ Qing nodded, took the money and put it away.
The eldest princess is very frugal with words?!
You should tell me a repayment date.
The corner of Situ Xiu's mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at the purse that was about to disappear. Forget it, just consider it as impressing the imperial sister, there is gain in loss.
The eldest sister was happy: "Fourth brother, I will give you the throne..."
After sending the two to the door, Situ Xiu chatted with them for some more casual conversation. He watched them walk into the sedan chair and saw the female general on horseback leading the way, with the armored soldiers on both sides following.
"Your Highness, starting next month, the manor will be on a diet." Eunuch Hai said with a bitter face.
Isn’t it just money?
Situ Xiu said with a smile, "Don't panic. Watermelons, cantaloupes, and sweet melons will be ripe in July soon. Then we'll have money again."
"Your Highness, what will be the price of these melons by then?" asked Eunuch Hai.
"Watermelons are a bit more expensive, 30 wen per pound, and the same goes for cantaloupes and melons."
Situ Xiu asked for a huge price. Watermelon was a high-quality fruit in that era, so it was definitely more expensive. If he wanted to sell it, he would sell it to officials and businessmen to make money from them.
"30 cents!" Eunuch Hai was shocked. Why is the price getting higher and higher?
He flicked his sleeves and turned around.
Situ Xiu returned to the bedroom.
......
Under the pitch-black night, people on both sides of the procession held lanterns to illuminate the darkness. Two princesses sat in the two sedan chairs in the front and back, heading towards Kyoto.
Rustle~!
Suddenly, several people flew out from the bushes on both sides of the road. They were dressed in black and were extremely inconspicuous in the darkness. Then came groups of people, about dozens of people.
“Enemy attack!!!”
The woman on horseback in front gave a loud shout, and the three women behind her drew their swords and flew out to fight. The armored soldiers on both sides threw away their lanterns, took out their weapons, surrounded the sedan chair to protect the two princesses, and the six women on horseback behind took out their weapons to fight.
Ding ding!!
The swords and knives were invisible, and the two sides met in the dark and started fighting immediately.
Two sedan chairs landed on the ground, and the eldest princess Situ Qing opened the curtains and walked out, her cold eyes sweeping around.
"Innate master!!"
Situ Qing knew the strength of her own men, who were able to fight hers to a draw. This group of people were at least at the innate level.
The nine people she brought with her had strengths ranging from the second to the fifth level of the innate realm. Two of them were at the fifth level of the innate realm, and the remaining seven were at the second to fourth level of the innate realm.
The remaining armored soldiers are all in the acquired realm.
The nine people were entangled by nine enemy shadowy figures, and the remaining men in black rushed towards the armored army, and a fight began.
