Quick travel: the leisurely life of cannon fodder

Yin'e also noticed the gazes of several people, turned around and coldly blocked them.

When the Eighth Concubine and the other two saw the Tenth Prince looking at them, they realized they had lost their composure and quickly looked away.

Yin'e said to Mu Xi, "Don't tolerate anyone who bullies you, fight back. Remember to call me if you have any problems."

Yin'e thought of the jealous looks of the Eighth and Ninth Concubines just now, and felt that tonight's banquet might not be peaceful. Although he had a good relationship with his eighth and ninth brothers, his wife was still more important.

Mu Xi nodded and said, "I understand. Go ahead."

Yin'e thought about it and still felt a little worried, so he asked Dongxue and Dongmei to take care of Madam Xia before he went to find his ninth brother and the others.

Mu Xi smiled and brought her maid to the group of people led by Fu Jin.

When the Crown Princess saw Mu Xi coming over, she smiled and teased a few times, "The Tenth Brother's wife is here. I thought you were going to stay with the Tenth Brother for a while before coming over."

Mu Xi smiled and responded when she heard this, "Crown Princess is joking."

The Eighth Lady looked at Mu Xi with some jealousy. She and Yin Si were not so sweet during their wedding. Why did this woman live so happily in this life and the previous one? Isn't it because she has a good fate? If you can't give birth to a child, will Yin Si still spoil you as always?

Then he said in a sarcastic tone, "Tenth brother's wife has been married for so long, it's time for them to have a child."

As she spoke, the Eighth Lady inadvertently puffed out her belly and smiled happily.

When the Ninth Concubine heard this, she also agreed, "Tenth brother's sister, my grandfather and Tenth brother have the best relationship, and sister-in-law is also concerned about you. You should have a child as soon as possible, otherwise how can we, the legitimate concubines, gain a foothold in the backyard."

While talking, Ninth Lady unconsciously touched her belly.

Mu Xi chuckled when she heard what the two said. With her medical skills, she could tell at a glance that the two were already three months pregnant, and the baby was about the same age as her own. That would be something interesting to watch.

Then Mu Xi said with a light mockery, "Although I got married early, if I remember correctly, I am younger than you. You don't even have children yet, so why should I be in such a hurry? Your grandfather doesn't dare to teach me how to do things, so what if you are my sister-in-law?"

The Eighth and Ninth Concubines were speechless and looked at Mu Xi angrily. Just when they were about to take action, the Crown Princess came out to mediate the situation and said, "Okay, Eighth Sister-in-law, Ninth Sister-in-law, you are overreaching. What happens to Tenth Brother's family is Tenth Brother's business. You should just take care of your own family.

And your tenth, eighth and ninth brother's sisters-in-law also care about you. Don't take it to heart if they said something wrong. And how can you be rude to your sister-in-law?

This matter ends here, don’t discuss it any further.”

When the Eighth and Ninth Concubines heard what the Crown Princess said, they curled their lips and stopped making a fuss.

Mu Xi watched as the Crown Princess seemed to handle the matter fairly, but in fact, she was somewhat biased towards the Eighth and Ninth Concubines. But Mu Xi didn't care, after all, she had already criticized what she should have criticized, and she had vented her anger.

Seeing that the situation was becoming awkward, the Third and Fourth Concubines immediately changed the subject and started talking about rouge and powder.

The First, Fifth and Seventh Concubines continued to stand quietly by and did not get involved.

The current first wife is the eldest prince's second wife, Zhang Jia. She has just married the eldest prince not long ago, and her family background is not high among the many wives, so she lacks confidence and is not very close to the other wives.

The sky began to darken, and the New Year's Eve banquet was about to begin. The wives returned to their princes and sat down, ready to start the meal.
