"Heavenly Fiend Lone Star?"
"Yes, the Heavenly Fiend Lone Star..." Xiaoyao briefly explained Guxing's situation.
"To have such a grandfather! No matter what, she's still his own granddaughter. Just because of a fortune teller's few words, he treated his own granddaughter like this! Truly despicable!" The Eldest Princess hated people who abandoned family bonds.
"He'll regret it. He only knows how to resign himself to fate, but doesn't understand that man can triumph over heaven. Many tis, fate can be changed! My boss will definitely beco a legend of the continent in the future. They'll regret it too late then!" Xiaoyao also said indifferently, because he knew the outco, the outco he had been guiding all along.
"Yes, I believe she can do it, because you'll help her!" The Eldest Princess smiled. She didn't know where her confidence ca from, but just felt that Xiaoyao could accomplish it. This had nothing to do with Guxing.
"Yes, I'll help her, because she's my boss!" Xiaoyao smiled.
"Has she ever paid you wages?"
"..."
Xiaoyao suddenly froze. This seed to really not have happened, but had always been overlooked by him. It seed like he provided more to Guxing.
...
...
If that was the case, he didn't really seem like Guxing's servant. No, he had to go ask her for wages.
This night, Xiaoyao was pulled by the Eldest Princess to talk until midnight. Most of the conversation was about Xiaoyao's affairs, and also about Princess Zhuyue.
Although the Eldest Princess originally intended to introduce Princess Zhuyue's affairs to Xiaoyao, later she unconsciously began asking about Xiaoyao's matters - how he grew up from childhood, where he was found, and so on. She was interested in everything about Xiaoyao.
Xiaoyao also answered. It was nothing more than being a servant. He had been a little servant since childhood and continued to be one until now.
As for the things Xiaoyao knew, he just said he learned them while being a servant, because of professional needs. The Eldest Princess didn't ask much about this, because she still didn't know Xiaoyao's abilities. She just thought Xiaoyao rely knew so things - well, just knew a little bit of ordinary things.
As they talked, the Eldest Princess also grew tired and gradually fell asleep. Yesterday, her other self had gone gambling for several all-nighters, and her body needed rest.
At this ti, Xiaoyao seed to understand sowhat. The situation outside wasn't that the Eldest Princess didn't want to act, but that she had no choice, because her other self always used up her ti, forcing her to rest.
Well then, let clean up this place. This kind of thing we servants can handle in minutes!
When the sun was high in the sky, when many people had already worked until tired, so people were still in their dreams. These people were generally those without worries about life, or those with special circumstances.
At this ti, the Eldest Princess, who was both worry-free and had special circumstances, slowly opened her eyes, sat up, and stared blankly for a while.
"Zhuyue, yesterday I seed to dream of Zhuyue. Was it real, or was I dreaming?" The Eldest Princess said sowhat confusedly. At this ti, she was in a state of just waking from a dream.
Originally, because of her long-term personality split, the Eldest Princess always felt that so things were like dreams. Like what happened yesterday, she felt it was sowhat dreamlike, possibly just her own dream.
The Eldest Princess took a bath in the bathroom, changed into clean clothes, ate breakfast, and then... wait, why were all these things prepared? Bathwater, clothes, breakfast, these were all prepared in advance. Why? There was no one else here!
Also, her palace seed to have beco tidy, extraordinarily tidy.
This was too strange. Before, not to ntion tidy, it couldn't even be called clean. But now it was extraordinarily tidy, spotless, with everything arranged neatly. There was no damage visible anywhere in the palace - it was completely renewed.
This... was she still not awake?
The Eldest Princess found this strange. At this ti, she heard sounds from the courtyard, so she went out to look. With this look, she was stunned again, feeling sowhat lost in a dreamlike sensation.
The originally sowhat overgrown courtyard was now completely different. The weeds were gone, the disappeared flower beds had reappeared, the vanished small bridges and flowing water had reappeared, the original... This could be said to be different, but could also be said to be the sa. Sa as before, different from yesterday's condition. This courtyard had been restored to its forr appearance, exactly the sa, equally elegant and peaceful.
Was this a dream, or had Zhiyuan arranged for others to do it? No, even if he arranged people to do it, this progress was too fast - she had only slept!
No, could it be that she had gone crazy for a long ti again?
No matter what, first look at the source of the movent in the courtyard - that person building a fence on the ground. This person was—
"Little Xiaoyao?! So I wasn't dreaming!" The Eldest Princess saw that person was Xiaoyao. She now understood that the matters about Zhuyue weren't a dream.
At this ti, she thought she must have slept for a long ti, or another self had appeared in between, so when she woke up, the entire Clear Moon Palace had changed.
Suddenly, she noticed what Xiaoyao was doing, and her expression changed, "Little Xiaoyao, what are you doing?"
"I'm building a fence. It'll be ready soon. You sit over there for a while." Xiaoyao didn't sense the Eldest Princess's displeasure and just replied casually.
"Who told you to do this? I said you're royalty, you don't need to work. I'll take good care of you," The Eldest Princess's expression beca ugly. Having Xiaoyao work in her own place while she said she'd take care of him - wasn't this slapping her own face?
If she knew who made Xiaoyao work, she would definitely kill that person.
"I wanted to do it myself. This place is too ssy - I'm not comfortable living here!" Xiaoyao replied casually.
"Uh..." The Eldest Princess beca embarrassed. She seed not to have thought of this point. Her place was indeed a bit dirty and ssy, yet she said she'd take care of him while having him live in such a place. This place really needed tidying up.
If the Eldest Princess had more ti, she would definitely discover this and have people co clean this place up. But now she had just woken up and hadn't had the ti yet.
"Did you do all this by yourself?" After recovering, the Eldest Princess asked a question. She found this sowhat unbelievable, so she needed to ask clearly first.
Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Yes, you said you don't like other people coming here, so naturally I handled it. This isn't difficult - I finished it quickly."
"..."
This wasn't difficult? Not to ntion this courtyard, just the cleaning and repairs inside would be very troubleso.
"How many days did you work?" The Eldest Princess asked. This amount of work would definitely require a long ti. She must have overslept during this period, or been occupied by her other self.
"Well, counting it up, it was just three or four hours - half a day!" Xiaoyao replied while working on the fence.
"So it was half a day... Ah, what did you say?" The Eldest Princess ca to her senses and asked loudly.
"I said half a day, maybe a bit more, but roughly that much," Xiaoyao replied indifferently.
"You're saying that in half a day, you cleaned up the inside, transford this place like this, and also prepared bathwater, clothes, breakfast, and so on for - all these things were done within half a day?" The Eldest Princess widened her eyes, listing each thing. Clearly, she didn't believe this was possible.
"Yes, this was actually slow. There were too few tools here, otherwise it would have been faster! You don't need to thank - this is what I should do. As a servant, this is what I'm best at." Xiaoyao smiled and replied, then threw himself back into building the fence.
At this ti, the Eldest Princess was completely stunned. Her "little nephew" really was servant material - to be able to complete all these things within half a day was too unbelievable.
Seeing Xiaoyao's fence-building technique, the Eldest Princess also believed it sowhat, because his technique was very fast. If every task could be this fast, completing all these things wasn't impossible.
"How did you know what this place looked like before?" The Eldest Princess was sowhat puzzled. This courtyard was restored to its forr appearance. For Xiaoyao to restore it, he would definitely need to know what this place looked like before.
Even she herself didn't rember very clearly. She could recognize it when looking at mories, but to recall each detail was really difficult!
"The portraits in your room have so records, and I've also seen the design drawings of this place. It was roughly like this. I also made slight modifications to make everything more harmonious." Xiaoyao answered.
"I see. Let look at your handiwork..." The Eldest Princess was relieved, then looked around the courtyard, examining every part. She discovered that in everything Xiaoyao had organized, she couldn't find a single flaw. Everything was so perfect, without any defects.
Was this really completed within half a day? Even if others used several days, they couldn't achieve this effect, and that would be for just one part.
Now, Xiaoyao had organized almost the entire courtyard - not just one part, but many parts!
"Really excellent! Just with your gardening skills, you could beco a renowned master gardener!" The Eldest Princess sighed.
"I have no interest in that!" Xiaoyao replied casually.
This day, Xiaoyao finished renovating the entire courtyard, making the Eldest Princess very happy. She originally loved this kind of environnt, but out of helplessness, had let this place beco increasingly ssy.
This night, the Eldest Princess slept very soundly. In these twenty years, she seed never to have slept as well as today!
