So many scholars and martial artists were rejected, leaving only four who were selected from miscellaneous categories. They were all quite flustered and didn't know what to do with their hands and feet.
The big, clumsy guy seemed to be infected by the atmosphere as well. He was clearly curious, his eyes darting around, while his hands were resting on his lap, and he didn't move.
It sits down like a small mountain, yet it has an incredibly well-behaved appearance.
Soon, lunch was served.
In order to be more approachable, Qin Zhaoyue had the dishes prepared not the elaborate ones of the previous two days, but something more suitable for ordinary people.
There were only two main dishes: roasted mutton and minced fish. The rest were seasonal vegetables and iced drinks, but the portions were very generous.
Qin Zhaoyue didn't make any special arrangements and ate the same dishes as everyone else.
Having experienced the cafeteria, takeout, and cooking for herself, she didn't feel anything was different and ate happily nonetheless.
But then she noticed the silly boy standing there, not touching his chopsticks. "Um... silly boy, what's wrong with you?"
The big, clumsy guy looked up at the person at the head of the table and asked, "Pretty lady, can all of these... be eaten?"
Qin Zhaoyue's heart trembled again.
After hearing what Xiyu had to say, I specially prepared a large lunch for him.
Everyone else had a plate of roasted mutton in front of them, but he only had a whole leg of lamb in front of him.
You could see the longing in the silly child's eyes; he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, but he was too careful to eat it.
Her voice softened unconsciously by a third, "You can eat everything in front of you, so feel free to eat as much as you want."
"oh!"
The fool cheered and eagerly grabbed a leg of lamb and started gnawing on it.
Watching him eat is like watching a mukbang video in my past life; it makes even my own food taste better.
With this little incident, the other four people in the hall gradually relaxed.
As time passed, Qin Zhaoyue and the other four people stopped eating one after another, and everyone's eyes turned to the table on the left side in front of them.
The fool seemed oblivious, continuing to quickly devour the food in front of him.
The lunch for five people was quickly devoured without keeping everyone waiting long.
Qin Zhaoyue then spoke up, "Have you eaten?"
The fool clutched his stomach, a clear look of hesitation flashing across his face. "I'm...I'm full."
But anyone could see that there was obviously some exaggeration in those words.
"You can't lie to me anymore, you have to tell the truth!" Qin Zhaoyue said with a hint of sternness.
That big guy shrank his neck, and finally stammered out the truth, "I'm not full."
Qin Zhaoyue: !
She now completely believes that it's true that she has to contribute some of the five taels a month.
This isn't just food; there's a whole leg of lamb as a base, and you're still not full?
"Someone, bring three more servings of food, and more meat."
"No need, no need!" The fool waved his large, fan-like hand. "As long as there's food to eat, that's enough."
Qin Zhaoyue sighed inwardly, "If you protect me well from now on, I'll have enough to eat every day, and meat to eat with every meal."
A startling light flashed in the fool's eyes, then he covered the back of his head and chuckled foolishly, "Pretty sister, you're so kind."
The people in the hall: ...
He dared to call this sixth princess "elder sister," and she didn't seem to dislike him at all. Truly, fools have their luck...
However, their anxiety has subsided considerably, and it seems that the Sixth Princess is not as terrible as the rumors suggest.
He showed a ferocious side on the first floor, but only towards those registered individuals who went too far.
Those with any talent were let off lightly, and they were even recruited.
Thinking about it this way, this kind of master doesn't seem so bad?
Before long, the meal for three was served again.
The fool ignored everyone watching him and began to wolf down his food again.
I thought three servings were already extravagant enough, but they were all gone in no time, and they even seemed a little unsatisfied.
This time, Qin Zhaoyue did not bring up the matter of serving dishes again.
There was enough food for eight people, and plenty of meat. She was worried that the silly boy might overeat since he had never eaten so much good food before. Anyway, there was still a long way to go, so she could take it slow.
At sixteen, he's still growing. If he could learn even a move or two, combined with his physique and strength, he would definitely be a great bodyguard.
"Fool..." Qin Zhaoyue started to say, then stopped, feeling it wasn't appropriate to call someone a fool. "Do you have a name?"
The fool nodded. "Let's call him Fool."
Although Lu Tieshan's family would often help him out, it was nothing more than giving him some food.
He felt he had no obligation to raise him, so he did not change his name.
Qin Zhaoyue pondered for a moment, "From now on, your name will be Ping An. Can you remember that?"
"Peace...Peace..." The fool muttered to himself many times before nodding emphatically, "Pretty sister, I can remember, my name is Peace!"
Qin Zhaoyue unconsciously smiled, and who could understand why the beautiful older sister suddenly had a "motherly" feeling.
"Alright, take them down to rest first. Um, you, artist, stay behind."
The artist, who was just about to leave quietly, felt a sudden jolt in his heart:
Why did the princess keep him here?
