Poisonous girls are hard to find: the king's arrogant favorite concubine

Chapter 221 Victory at the first stop
The time is quiet, if the picture stays in this fixed frame, it may be a kind of beauty. The two sat and talked like this. After chatting for a long time, Xin Hua didn't know how many times he went in to refill tea.

After Ding Jiuxi left, Xuan Che suddenly stared in a daze at the pot of paper ashes that had completely disappeared from the fireworks. Why didn't he dispose of the pot of fire ashes then?
In the end Xuan Che sighed and called Xin Hua, "Xin Hua, please dispose of this basin of ashes." Then he turned and went back to the back room.

"Okay." Xin Hua nodded and agreed. He had wanted to take it out a long time ago, but he and Ding Jiuxi were talking about something, so he didn't move in time. Knowing if he did something wrong, he rarely heard Xuan Che sigh.

Time seems to be passing brightly under the sunlight, but behind all of this there is darkness, which is also slowly flowing forward with time.

The prince's banquet was ready on time. Ding Jiuxi and Ding Lingxu attended the banquet on behalf of the entire Ding residence. Both Ding Jiuxi and Ding Lingxu were part of the prince's desire to win over, but today's Ding Lingxu's identity has already Unknowingly changed.

At the gate of the prince's mansion, the prince personally stood at the gate of the mansion to welcome everyone. There was an eye contact between Ding Jiuxi and the prince, and he silently acted as if nothing had happened.

There were so many people, Ding Lingxu didn't notice so much at all, he just cared about trying to curry favor with the prince. Ding Jiuxi was just playing a well-behaved little follower, and it was not convenient for him to talk to the prince.

The prince was going to greet too many people, after some polite greetings, the servants naturally led them in.

Originally thought that even if the prince was irritated now, he would finally be ready to fight the sixth prince. The urgently recruited team must not be as large as Mo Ran, who has been scheming.

But Ding Jiuxi felt that he was wrong. There were a lot of people, which seemed chaotic, but they were all in order. The two were taken to their seats and sat opposite each other.

When Ding Lingxu came here, he felt an inexplicable sense of superiority in his heart. When he looked at Ding Jiuxi, he raised his head unconsciously. It seemed that his relationship with the prince was always worth showing off.

Ding Jiuxi felt that this kind of person was simply pathetic and pitiful. He always had to wait until the last moment of losing to realize his ignorance and stupidity.

Soon all the people have arrived one after another, and the prince has also come in to take his seat. Everyone should salute and bow.

The scene seemed very lively and harmonious for a while.

What is indispensable in this kind of scene is naturally the most official politeness. After repeating the clichés, they finally started to talk about some topics casually.

"Come on, let me introduce to you. This is Ding Lingxu, the eldest son of General Ding. He is young and promising. He is the staff member of the palace. He is usually able to help, so everyone can get to know each other in the future. Then what's the matter?" We can also discuss with each other."

Mo Ziqing first watched Ding Lingxu introduce to everyone, and then looked at Ding Jiuxi to introduce to everyone.

"This is Ding Jiuxi, the third lady of General Ding's mansion, and I was honored to invite her over."

Comparing the two, the prince's introduction to Ding Lingxu was much more respectable, and the sense of superiority on Ding Lingxu's face immediately overflowed, and the eyes he looked at Ding Jiuxi showed off proudly all the time.

Because Ding Jiuxi is a female family member, although the world is relatively open at this time, since he wants to act, he must act well. Ding Jiuxi just lowered his eyes, saluted everyone and then stopped talking.

Seeing this, Ding Lingxu felt even more proud, thinking that this Ding Jiuxi had no face.

However, what the prince said next made him feel the elation just now, and immediately retreated to the corner of his face.

"You all don't know that the third lady of the Ding family has a younger brother named Ding Xichen who is only ten years old. She has only set out for a few days and has not yet arrived at the military camp. On the way, she encountered robbers from the green forest. They are a group of habitual offenders." , the local government launched several encirclement campaigns, but all of them returned without success.”

"But as soon as Ding Xichen arrived there, he gave an idea to the local magistrate, and then successfully wiped out the gang of bandits, and then received a lot of praise from the local people. They were a group of bandits who had been entrenched in the local area for almost 20 years. , and afterwards, almost all those people went to join the army with Ding Xichen."

"It's rare to hear such rare news. When I heard the report in the palace, I was surprised. This Ding Xichen must be a general when he grows up!"

The prince alone said vividly above, and naturally many people below followed the prince's emotions, sighed, surprised, and amazed together.

In fact, the prince said this to Ding Jiuxi, mainly to reassure her, she must have not gotten the news.

Especially when he was talking, Ding Jiuxi looked at him almost intently. He had never seen Ding Jiuxi who was so serious and serious. It seemed that the relationship between them was not so deep. Things come out.

On the other hand, it can be regarded as a demonstration of his own strength. Although Ding Xichen has not grown up yet, this is to show everyone how potential and powerful his follow-up power is.

Perhaps this news is among all the people sitting here, and Ding Lingxu is the person who is the last person to hear it, not only because the prince praised him, but also because Ding Xichen is such a capable person, only ten years old. At the age of [-], he has just set out on the expedition, and there are still too many unknowns in the future, so what kind of surprises will he give others?

All of these burst into countless possibilities in Ding Lingxu's mind, but he didn't want to see them unless he died in battle!

He particularly regretted why he chose Ding Jiuxi instead of Ding Xichen when he administered the poison. Maybe now he doesn't have to face this embarrassing situation.

The atmosphere was harmonious, with a slight smile. Seeing that Ding Jiuxi didn't respond, Ding Lingxu only had a strong smile on his face, and he opened his eyes to speak.

"His Royal Highness is overestimating my younger brother. There must be a misunderstanding. We often stay together when he is at home. If it is true that he succeeded in suppressing the bandits after he passed, then it is also due to the imperial court's orders. , even if he has great abilities, he is only a ten-year-old child."

Ding Lingxu's words seemed to get many people's nods of approval. After all, as a child, he was really like what the prince said, so wouldn't he be like a child prodigy?

Thinking about it carefully, I wonder if there is really an exaggeration, and it is Ding Lingxu who said this, Ding Xichen's elder brother, so he can't talk in empty words.

But Ding Jiuxi smiled lightly, "No, I know this better. Although my younger brother is not a child prodigy, he has a very flexible mind, but he must have done so much without the help of the government, but I believe the idea must be Xichen The idea, because the government really had a solution for 20 years of rectification, it has long since disappeared, and the thing of getting people to follow to the military camp is not something that anyone can do if they say it can be done."

Ding Jiuxi's rebuttal made Ding Lingxu feel a little embarrassed. Ding Jiuxi is his own sister, and he is his half-brother. The two insist on their own opinions. This somewhat makes people feel that Ding Lingxu is deliberately slandering.

The prince also spoke, "This matter is really due to Ding Xichen. It is said that it is a god in the local area. Father is very happy to praise it for this."

This is the golden words of the emperor and the prince, and the status seems to be different all at once.

The eyes of other people changed accordingly. This is the reality of this world. Ding Lingxu hated him so much, but he couldn't do anything.

"That humble minister is here to congratulate His Highness the Crown Prince for his good talent!"

"My minister is here to congratulate His Royal Highness the crown prince for being a talented person!"

As if it was a curse, everyone began to congratulate the prince. His Royal Highness smiled with a special meaning, and only Ding Lingxu's face turned into a pig's liver color.

But Ding Jiuxi didn't seem very happy either, because she understood the so-called truth that Mu Xiuyu would be destroyed by the forest wind if he hit the top bird with a gun. Knowing too little, this is not good news for him at all.

If you get this kind of attention now, then he will have to take on more things in the future. He must conquer the definition of you in other people's minds with excellent grades one after another or with various think tanks, otherwise you will do something wrong One point is a great thing.

This kind of thing is like the life of those modern stars. You have to live a clean life. Even if there is something, you have to work hard to hide it. Otherwise, even a small thing, such as eating, will become everything. People scramble to expose the key points, and then get drowned in the saliva.

She regretted that she didn't let Ding Xichen restrain herself when she left. Behind this kind of talent is actually a kind of burden. If everyone benefits, it's fine. If it benefits only one person, then it is a very bad situation. .

Ding Jiuxi was sitting here, but his heart drifted to Ding Xichen's side. He didn't know if he was still used to everything, whether he could handle all aspects well when encountering problems, and whether the newly recruited people were safe or not.

Ding Jiuxi didn't want to think about it too much. After all, she had written all the skills she had learned all her life and handed it over to him. His life had to be lived, experienced and survived by himself. That was his own. life.

But Ding Jiuxi couldn't convince himself that he could be so calm and calm about Ding Xichen's affairs. Fortunately, this environment passively allowed Ding Jiuxi to suppress his irritability.
