"May I have your name?"
Anjiu heard a gentle male voice, and then saw a pair of white boots...
This should be Doctor Jiang.
"Xiaojiu."
"Xiao Jiu..." Doctor Jiang chuckled: "I'm asking about your real name, the name you had before you entered the palace."
"Anjiu."
"Anjiu..." Doctor Jiang repeated. For some reason, Anjiu always felt that his name sounded a little more special when pronounced from his mouth, just like when someone approached you at a bar and said, "You look so familiar. Have we met before?"
With a strong sense of purpose.
Doctor Jiang continued to ask: "Where is your hometown?"
"Wenyao County."
Doctor Jiang said, "When I was traveling, I passed by there. The cantaloupe there was delicious."
An Jiu said nothing.
Doctor Jiang asked again, "Is there anyone else at home? Why did you come to the palace?"
An Jiu had sorted out the original owner's memories a long time ago. The original owner didn't remember much about her family. She remembered that they were very poor. Later, there was a famine and she was separated from her family. She was sold by people and eventually entered the palace in a daze. But for some reason, she had no memory of what happened after entering the palace.
She gave the same answer to Doctor Jiang.
Doctor Jiang was silent for a moment and said, "That means we have no way to find it..."
An Jiu felt that his words sounded malicious.
But Doctor Jiang said nothing afterwards, but asked about the details of the tyrant's relationship with her.
Doctor Jiang said: "I am really curious why he is so special to you."
An Jiu also wanted to know this.
How many meals can Anjiu cook alone? That's impossible, it must have been tried before.
Besides, An Jiu’s cooking skill is just home cooking, so it’s not really appropriate to say that her cooking is so delicious.
Then why?
Is it because I can hear the tyrant's inner voice and he finds me approachable?
An Jiu couldn't figure it out, and Doctor Jiang couldn't figure it out either, so he asked An Jiu to cook him a meal.
An Jiu: "Now?"
Doctor Jiang: "Is it too late?"
What do you think?
Are you the devil?
I'm tired after a day and a half, it's not enough to cook for the tyrant, and I still have to cook for you? By the way, Tyrant hasn't given her today's tip yet.
An Jiu didn't say anything, it was a silent resistance.
Doctor Jiang smiled and said, "Then let's do it tomorrow."
An Jiu was finally able to go back to sleep. Finally, she glanced at the tyrant lying on the bed and vaguely saw a hazy figure.
An Jiu thought she would have insomnia, but unexpectedly she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow. When she opened her eyes again, it was already past noon.
An Jiu: "..."
Overslept.
An Jiu got up quickly, washed up, and went out of the door. Not finding Aunt Qu, she went to the backyard to watch the craftsmen build the keel.
It has to be said that the ancient craftsmen were very good at it and they had almost completed half of the work.
The craftsmen were puzzled by the strange dragon in front of them. When they saw her coming, someone asked, "Is this really a dragon?"
An Jiu knew the emperor's concerns, and for the sake of her future life, she had already thought of an excuse.
"It's possible. There were so many gods in ancient times, and they had many mounts, too. There were all kinds of them."
The craftsmen were wondering what kind of monster it was, but when they heard An Jiu's words, they suddenly understood. Yes, it might be the mount of some god. After all, the mounts of gods in mythological books are all very strange.
"Doesn't that mean we have discovered an ancient mythical beast?" an artisan exclaimed.
The others nodded.
"The dragon is also an ancient mythical beast."
"It must be..."
"I don't know what kind of deity would ride something like this."
The craftsmen were talking about it. At this time, Xiaofu came and saw Anjiu and happily called out, "Xiaojiu."
An Jiu looked at him. This little Fu was just like Eunuch Li in the past. Although he smiled, his smile didn't reach his eyes. He was polite and distant. How could he be so friendly?
"Eunuch Fu."
Xiaofu: "Your Majesty is awake, Eunuch Li wants you to come over."
An Jiu: "..."
She really didn't want to face the Dog Emperor at all. Who knew if he would kill her just because he remembered what happened last night.
