Quickly wear and change the fate of the little cannon fodder

Chapter 458: The Little Cannon Fodder in Ancient House Fighting Novels 14

"There's nothing I can do. My biological father doesn't like it, and my stepmother is in charge! But it's not too late for us to get to know each other now!" Cui Xiaoxiao is secretly trying to ruin the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion all the time.

The girl lowered her head and thought for a while before asking tentatively, "You...are you the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Le'an?"

"Yes, how did you know?" Cui Xiaoxiao was surprised!

"It's not hard to guess. The situation you mentioned, plus the fact that they never attend banquets, the Le'an Marquis' Mansion is one of them. The others have physical reasons or other reasons!" The girl said that she knew all this and it was not difficult.

"Do you know all the ladies in the capital very well?"

"As long as you attend a few more banquets, you will understand everything. You have never been out, so you definitely don't know anything."

"That's right!"

In her previous life, she had only been to the Marquis' Mansion and the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Even if she was selected as a show, she was unknown and not many people knew her. Moreover, she died early, so other people only heard of the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Le'an Mansion but had never seen her in person.

As for the entire plot, it is also unfolded from the perspective and emotional line of the heroine. Most of the content in the book is mainly about house fighting, palace fighting, and raising children.

Therefore, she really didn't know much about the ladies in the capital, including who was the prince's wife and who was the prince's concubine. Not to mention the ladies in the families of the powerful officials in the court at that time!

While they were chatting animatedly, the princes over there also sat next to their mothers and started chatting in low voices.

"Mother, why are you attending this banquet?" The Tenth Prince asked his mother with some confusion. Doesn't his mother dislike this kind of occasion?

"I'm just bored, aren't I? I came here to see if there are any suitable candidates for my daughter-in-law. Why are you here too?"

"I came here just because I saw my mother coming." The Tenth Prince answered as a matter of course!

But Concubine Zhao didn't believe a word of it!

Tsk, no way! I believed your lies! Hua had only sat down for a cup of tea or two, but he had already glanced in the direction of the daughter of Marquis Le'an several times! He could deceive the people around him, but he couldn't deceive his mother, whose eyes were very sharp!

"Then, son, take a good look at these ladies. Do you like any of them?"

"My son is still young, there's no need to rush!" When he turned to look at his mother, he inadvertently saw Cui Xiaoxiao's happy smile again.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Zhao sneered, haha, you are still young, if you have the guts, why don’t you look over there, this hypocritical guy!

Over there, Concubine Chen and the Fifth Prince, mother and son, were also whispering to each other!

"Mother, what do you think?" Although the words were incoherent, his mother must know the answer!

"I can't see anything for now!" After saying that, she glanced towards Cui Xiaoxiao's position.

The fifth house followed her gaze and frowned when he saw two beauties in that position.

"The one in blue clothes!" Chen Fei reminded him in a low voice.

The Fifth Prince glanced at Cui Xiaoxiao for a few seconds, then his gaze shifted to the cold and elegant girl next to her!

"Who's the one next to her? From the Duke of England's Mansion?" he asked his mother uncertainly!

"Yes! But that person cannot be touched. The emperor has already made arrangements." Even if there are no arrangements, if they plan to take the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yingguo as a concubine, their old man will definitely make them restless!

That guy is a famous rolling knife in the capital, he won't let them go easily! They just want to make friends, not to make enemies!

"How did they get together? She is good at flattering people. I don't know how she found this person, but so what? By the way, mother, where are the others?" The Fifth Prince glanced at Cui Xiaoxiao and looked away. This person was not worthy of his attention.

"What I mean is to let the legitimate daughter of General Dingbei be your concubine! That girl has a sensible personality. General Dingbei is not very prominent now, but I have investigated and found that he is a steady person with potential! Several legitimate sons in his family are very good seedlings, and they also value this legitimate daughter very much! What do you think?" Then she pointed to the seat where General Dingbei's legitimate daughter was sitting.

"Mother, you can make the arrangements. I have no objection." The fifth prince looked in the direction his mother pointed and was quite satisfied with the girl's appearance. Mother and son are connected by heart. His mother knew what he wanted, and he also believed in his mother's vision.

"Okay, if you have no objection, I will proceed according to the plan!" Chen Fei was also satisfied that her son was obedient.

The other princes also looked at the beauties in secret, and discussed with their mothers to try to satisfy both mothers and sons. Until the palace maid came to inform them that dinner was ready and they could sit down and eat!

Only then did Concubine Zhao lead everyone to the table. The Emperor and the Empress sent people to present the dishes, and everyone knelt down to express their gratitude!

"Alas, in this evil feudal society, even a meal can't be peaceful. You have to kneel and kowtow several times, which really affects your appetite." Cui Xiaoxiao complained in her heart! Finally, she sat down and watched the ladies at the top start to eat. Cui Xiaoxiao and the others started to eat!

This was the first time Cui Xiaoxiao had eaten imperial cuisine in her lifetime. The imperial chef lived up to expectations and each dish was very delicate and beautiful. It was also truly delicious and she could tell that a lot of effort had gone into each dish!

In front of the delicious food, Cui Xiaoxiao didn't think about whether those big shots paid attention to her. While eating, she was still thinking about what seasonings this dish had and how it was made...

Although she was enjoying the food, she was not slow in picking up her chopsticks and wanted to taste every dish. It was a pity that she couldn't stand up to pick up the food!

Seeing her like this, Qing Leng Xiu Nu also felt that her appetite had improved a lot. Looking from a distance, other Xiu Nu were busy looking for long-term meal tickets for themselves, and did not pay much attention to the food on the table.

Only the person next to her was concentrating on eating! And strangely, she understood what Cui Xiaoxiao meant, so she used the serving chopsticks to pick up the food that Cui Xiaoxiao couldn't reach: "This tastes good, you try it."

"Yeah, it's really good, but I also want to try the dish next to it. I've been thinking about it for a long time!" Cui Xiaoxiao was not polite either!

"...Okay, I'll get some food for you!" Those who didn't know would think that she was thinking about some young master. The cold and beautiful girl held back her laughter and helped her pick up some food!

In the end, one of them was seriously enjoying the food while the other was seriously feeding him. However, neither of them forgot what the occasion was. One of them was concentrating on eating while the other was busy picking up food to cover him. Both of them moved quickly and did it without leaving any trace.

Even the young lady sitting at the same table didn't notice the little things that happened between them.

However, there is no rule of not talking while eating or sleeping at this kind of banquet. Some princes were drinking, and the princes' companions were not idle either. The talkative ladies from high-class families would also say some auspicious words and toast to the queen and the princes.

The concubines of the young official family observed the movements of the empress and the princes while whispering to the concubines sitting next to them! The whole banquet hall began to clink glasses and exchange cups, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Only after seeing all the other ladies slow down their chopsticks did Cui Xiaoxiao have to slow down her chopsticks. She was still regretting that there were still several dishes she hadn't eaten yet!

Seeing her like this, Qing Leng Xiu Nu couldn't help but laugh a little, but she also liked this way of feeding. Seeing that she seemed to be able to eat more, she couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Is the Marquis' Mansion so poor now? Don't your family members let you eat enough?"

"The Marquis' Mansion is indeed very poor, but this is an imperial meal. The cooking skills of the chefs in the Marquis' Mansion are extremely poor, and their cooking skills cannot be compared with this kind of imperial meal." Cui Xiaoxiao wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and then spoke in a low voice!

"Where did all the food you ate go?" She ate a lot, so why did her stomach still look flat?

"Don't look at it. The food should still be in my stomach, not in my stomach! I'm still growing! It's normal to eat more. You should also eat more, otherwise you won't grow taller." She is definitely not comparable to those ladies with small stomachs who will be bloated after eating only three chopsticks of food and a small bowl of porridge!

The cold and beautiful girl twitched her lips. It turned out that this person was a serious eater. However, eating with such a person was indeed more appetizing. "Okay, I'll call you for dinner next time!"

Cui Xiaoxiao was speechless. Why did this sound familiar? Others could find a perfect husband through talent shows. It was hard to say whether she gained anything else from participating in a talent show, but at least she gained two companions to eat with.

They thought they were doing it very secretly, but the Tenth Prince, who was always watching them, saw it all. He couldn't help laughing. But watching them eat made him feel very hungry, so he couldn't help but eat a lot more.

Concubine Zhao felt that her son was terrible, and his eyes were on the girl. However, in public, as an old mother, she could only cover up for her son, otherwise others would have discovered that her son was abnormal.

After seeing Cui Xiaoxiao slow down, the Tenth Prince also put down his chopsticks. Only then did he realize that he had eaten a lot more than usual for dinner today and was actually a little full!

Concubine Zhao was relieved to see her son back to normal, and couldn't help but glare at her son! The Tenth Prince was puzzled by his mother's look. He looked confused. How did he offend his mother again?

Well, she couldn't keep this son anymore! Concubine Zhao looked away silently. For the time being, she didn't want to see this miserable son.

But she also discovered a more distressing fact, that the girl had no idea of her son's thoughts, it was all because her son was too eager to get his hair cut! Concubine Zhao was even a little disappointed, it was a waste of her to give birth to such a good-looking son!

She was really afraid that her son would fall in love with a troublemaker who was confused and out of tune with the family, and she was also afraid that her son would be hurt by love after he fell in love for the first time. She didn't know why she had such thoughts!

But she was more relieved that the daughter of the Marquis of Le'an had nothing bad to offer. Although she had never dealt with her, she knew the girl from the Duke of Ying's mansion!

How clear and sharp is that girl's vision? She has seen it with her own eyes! In all these years, there are only one or two girls who can catch her eye, and they are all wise and sensible. How bad can the girl who can chat with her be?

At this time, some of the princes and their companions of noble children were a little drunk and were helped by the servants beside them to rest.

Amid this lively atmosphere, the sky had gradually darkened, and hundreds of candles had been lit all around by the palace maids.

The flowers in the daytime take on a hazy beauty under the lights at night. The dark night gives the flowers a unique charm. The flowers under the lights bloom with tranquility and coolness, which makes people intoxicated.

Cui Xiaoxiao and the cold and beautiful girl put down their chopsticks and left the table to appreciate the flowers in the imperial garden of the palace!

Cui Xiaoxiao finally understood the meaning of the ancient saying "Look at the mountains from the city, look at the snow from the mountain, look at the flowers under the lamp, and look at the sunset from the boat"! Although she didn't drink, she was a little drunk by the beautiful scenery in front of her.

Many beauties were attracted by the scenery and left their seats to admire it.

The beauties in this atmosphere are even more colorful than in the daytime, which is in line with the saying "Flowers are lovely under the lamp, but these flowers are even more lively. I don't mind getting drunk in front of the wine cup today, I just worry that the red makeup is not real!"

They are at the most beautiful and charming age in their lives, and now they look even more lively and beautiful! Cui Xiaoxiao, a woman, was moved by them, let alone those princes who had drunk some wine?

However, in this situation, they did not dare to act recklessly. They just looked for opportunities to get close to the woman they liked, said a few words, and tried their best to leave a good impression on both sides!

As a result, the atmosphere changed and became a little ambiguous.

Cui Xiaoxiao and Qing Leng Xiu Nu didn't want to be a light bulb, so they left the flower-viewing circle. They didn't go back to rest, but returned to the small round table. The table had already been replaced with new fruit snacks! When the palace maids saw them coming, they served them tea very considerately.

"Oh, it's comfortable, the moonlight is so beautiful tonight!" Cui Xiaoxiao exclaimed!

"What? Do you want to recite a poem too?" The cold and beautiful girl asked with raised eyebrows!

Cui Xiaoxiao also thought of what the showy Sixth Prince had just said to a certain concubine, that he wanted to recite a poem in this situation, in order to win the beauty's heart as soon as possible!

"Haha, I do want to recite poems, but I am not well-educated, so I can't show off even if I want to! If you want to hear me recite a poem, wait for me to study for a few more years. I will definitely recite it for you when I have learned it well!" Cui Xiaoxiao said lazily. She didn't want to recite poems when she was most comfortable.

"Come on, you want to moan, but I don't want to hear it. It's too greasy. I just finished dinner and I don't want to feel sick!"

"I don't even know your name. I can't always call you hello, can I?"

"Ji Fanyin!"

"Well, what a nice name, it sounds very Buddhist. By the way, my name is Cui Xiaoxiao, nice to meet you!"

"Nice to meet you! Cui Xiaoxiao, your name is nice too!"

The two of them raised their teacups and took a sip in tacit understanding!

"Wait, your last name is Ji? From the Duke of England's family?" Cui Xiaoxiao finally dug out a short memory about the Duke of England's legitimate daughter from her few memories.
