Quickly wear and change the fate of the little cannon fodder

Chapter 229 The Cannon Fodder Wife in the Ancient Time Traveling Novel 36

She was also a little worried about this. If she got pregnant again in the future, they would still be their biological parents, but the treatment would be different. Xia Xiaoxiao was afraid that they would have a knot in their hearts, and it would be bad if the brothers turned against each other.

"Mother, what are you talking about? You underestimate us. We are not ignorant people. We already knew all this!

Besides, when we grow up, we will earn what we want. Now we have been enjoying the resources of the Marquis's Mansion and the King's Mansion. Our starting point is already higher than many people, and we are very satisfied now! "The three children nodded in agreement.

"Mother, Uncle Axu has no wife, and no children in name only! His royal title cannot be wasted, how about you secretly have a child with him? In this way, we brothers will get both the titles of Marquis and King, and nothing will be wasted, which is much better than letting others get it." The third brother has the most ideas.

"But in this case, we have to agree that we don't need the title, but we need to get more money when the time comes. Although we will earn money in the future and the two mansions will not be short of their money, no one will complain about having too much money no matter how rich they are." The second and third brothers thought that they needed more money as capital. With more money in their hands, they would not be anxious about doing anything!

Xia Xiaoxiao almost wanted to cover her forehead with her hands. If Prince Jin knew that his property and title a hundred years later had been arranged clearly, she wondered if he would regret knowing them!

The sons she gave birth to wouldn't really have bandit genes! The Xia family's genes are pretty good, they must be from the prince's side, anyway, it has nothing to do with her.

After talking things out, the three little brats started to study hard. His teachers were very surprised at their progress. At this rate, it would only be a matter of time before they would become the top scorer in the imperial examination. The prince's bloodline is good, and he is excellent no matter what the conditions are.

The teachers were teaching more and more attentively, wishing to put everything they knew into the three little heads. With the two-way efforts, the three children's learning progressed by leaps and bounds.

Some even felt that their knowledge was not enough, so they used their connections to bring the three kids to their personal teachers for advice! Of course, there were also traces of showing off their genius disciples, but they did learn some knowledge after all!

Xia Xiaoxiao also let them do what they wanted. Since that conversation, Xia Xiaoxiao treated them as adults. She let the three of them manage their small warehouses and even gave each of them a shop to test the waters first.

In this way, Xia Xiaoxiao's life became more and more comfortable! After two years of development, Prince Jin did not change much on the surface. He was still the free and easy prince before, but his strength increased greatly in private. Whether it was money or the people under his command, he had increased several times. At least when there was a big chaos or any changes in the future, there would be absolutely no problem to retreat unscathed.

He also increasingly agreed with Xia Xiaoxiao's point of view. He didn't need some strength, but at least he had to have it. Otherwise, after his brother passed away, he might become a fish on the chopping board of his nephews, at the mercy of others.

Anyway, he didn't dare to gamble on the royal family's affection at all. He knew these nephews better than Xia Xiaoxiao! Although there were two or three nephews who looked good on the surface, who knew what they were like in private? Who could guarantee that he was good now, but would not change after taking power?

Seeing that he was so busy, Xia Xiaoxiao secretly used the invisibility talisman to observe several princes of the current emperor in her spare time! To see if she could help him at the critical moment, at least she could observe him and have a better idea of what to do. Then she would not be completely in the dark, right?

The emperor has eleven princes and nine princesses, and eight of them are adult princes! The eldest brother is not in good health on the surface, but secretly he is in much better health than on the surface, and there are some secret forces! But it is carried out secretly, so the quality of these forces is not very good.

The second son is the legitimate son, born to the Empress, and his mother's family is very powerful. He has military power, but his character is not very good. He is arrogant, irritable, lustful, and conceited... He feels that the next throne is in his pocket!

The third son is quite capable and can fight. The Marquis followed him to suppress the rebellion and has a high prestige in the army. His mother's family is also good, but lacks in literature!

The fourth one, who likes Zhihu, deals with books all day long. Xia Xiaoxiao observed carefully that he and his mother really had no idea about the throne. At the same time, he was the prince who married the young lady of the Duke's Mansion!

Lao Wu, overall he is pretty good, good at both civil and military affairs. There is nothing bad about him in private, but he is a bit henpecked. He has only one wife and one concubine, and they get along well. But this is not a bad thing!

The sixth one was not so good. He was the most greedy and lustful. He had all the qualities of a dandy boy and was a typical example of a man who favored his concubine over his wife! He also had the most children, more than 20 sons and more than a dozen daughters. The mansion was almost full of them.

The seventh child was born to a palace maid. He was somewhat inferior, taciturn, and had some dark thoughts. He had abilities, but his vision was not broad, and he had no power.

The Eighth Prince, the son of the Imperial Concubine, is the best-looking of all the princes. He is also quite capable, and his mother is also very smart! In Xia Xiaoxiao's opinion, he has a sharp tongue, the kind that can make people angry to death. If someone provokes him, he will scold them to the point that they doubt their lives.

The other three are too far apart in age and started too late. The youngest is three years younger than her son. They should have no chance, right?

According to Xia Xiaoxiao's initial observations over the past two months, the third, fifth, and eighth brothers are all pretty good, at least they won't do anything rash. She just needs to get to know them first, because His Majesty is in charge of these matters anyway, and for the sake of his kingdom, he will definitely consider it carefully.

Since the little brats were taken by the master to visit other masters, their hearts have also become wild. However, they also made a few good friends, all of whom are the proud students of other masters.

Several people exchanged learning, discussion, competition, and friendship gradually improved. Then I followed them to study at the Imperial College for a few months, and stayed away from home all day, anyway, I had a lot of fun.

After Xia Xiaoxiao handed over the front yard to them, they also hosted a few small banquets in the front yard. They were very successful, and Xia Xiaoxiao was not allowed to intervene at all, as long as she paid the money!

That day, Xia Xiaoxiao took several children to the Imperial Censorate for a banquet. The second brother's youngest son was one month old! In the past few years, the Imperial Censorate has not been idle. There are four little brats, two sons in the eldest brother's family, and one daughter and one son in the second brother's family!

Xia Xiaoxiao looked at her parents, who were all beaming with joy. Their sons had all started their own families and careers, and although their daughter had lost her husband, the children were obedient and lived a comfortable life.

The old couple had no troubles, and their lives were getting better and better. The censor had also developed a new hobby, fishing, and Xia Xiaoxiao often received fish caught by her father in the mansion!

"Xiaoxiao, you're here, come and sit down!" Wang looked her daughter up and down with a smile on her face. Although she knew that her daughter would not treat herself badly, she was not around after all. As a parent, how could she not be worried?

The mother and daughter hadn't seen each other for a while, so they talked a lot! Xia Xiaoxiao also brought her mother some handmade facial masks and skin care products. The mother and daughter exchanged skin care experiences, and their relationship was much better than when they first came here.

Xia Xiaoxiao also heard about her sister-in-law from Wang. Leng Yao has not returned since the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion went into mourning.

Now I heard that they haven't gotten pregnant for several years. The princess said Leng Yao couldn't have children. Leng Yao said that his son's parts were probably broken, and he was having a big fight with his in-laws. He said that he was planning to adopt another child to inherit the family line.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt that as long as they didn't come back to her parents' home to harass her, she would not bother to care about them and let them do whatever they wanted. Anyway, don't expect her son to support her or anything. Since the three brats knew about the past life, they became even more indifferent to their aunt.

Three years passed quickly, and the three boys were now almost eleven years old. Two years ago, the three brothers passed the examination for Tongsheng, and this year they were preparing to take the examination for Xiucai.

But now the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and the trend of the succession is becoming more and more obvious! The whole capital is becoming more and more depressed, and even Prince Jin can't stay out of it, and he can't even close the door. More and more people are harassing him in various ways, openly or secretly, making it inconvenient for them to meet now.

He was extremely annoyed and only wished that his brother had appointed a crown prince earlier and resolved this matter earlier so that he could live a comfortable life earlier. Xia Xiaoxiao felt that if things continued like this, chaos would not be far away, so he should pay attention to the things around him earlier.

As Xia Xiaoxiao expected, one month later, when the emperor fell ill and stopped attending court, on a stormy night, the second prince brought his grandfather's soldiers into the capital and headed straight for the palace. He rebelled!

The other princes who had ideas about the throne received the news and all took action! Some resisted the traitors, some went to rescue the emperor, and some took advantage of the situation... The whole capital was in chaos.

Many powerful and influential mansions that had taken sides all took action! Although Xia Xiaoxiao's mansion did not take sides, its location was not far from the mansions of these powerful and influential people.

Of course, Xia Xiaoxiao was also worried that this chaos would affect her, and she was even more worried that some people with bad intentions would take advantage of the situation and bully them, an orphan and a widow.

As soon as they received the news, they immediately closed the doors and asked the guards and servants in the mansion to guard all the doors and not to open them no matter what happened. The maids and servants were also gathered together.

After that, things got more and more chaotic. Even in the mansion, I could still hear footsteps, crying and shouting outside. From time to time, one or two stray arrows flew into the mansion, but fortunately, there were no casualties.
