Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

After drinking the tea, Wu Xu felt much more comfortable, and he began to test Xiao Zimo.

As the leader of this meeting, Xiao Zimo's knowledge is naturally excellent, and he undoubtedly answered Wu Xu's questions fluently.

Wu Xu was very satisfied with Xiao Zimo's performance in his heart, but he couldn't help being suspicious: "Do you know that the son-in-law doesn't enter the court?"

"I know." Xiao Zimo nodded.

"After studying hard for ten years, you could have stepped into the imperial court to serve the country and showed some achievements, but you really gave up willingly?" Wu Xu asked.

He stared at Xiao Zimo closely, wanting to see what kind of answer the other party would give.

"May I ask Your Highness, does the shopkeeper of this inn serve the country?" Xiao Zimo asked back.

Wu Xu was slightly stunned, and then he replied: "It's natural. The shopkeeper goes into business, opens an inn, and pays taxes every year to fill the treasury. Of course, he will serve the country."

Xiao Zimo said with a smile: "Since this is the case, it can be seen that serving the country is not something that can only be done in the court. Even if I am lucky enough to be a consort, I can also contribute my part outside the court."

"Good! Well said, as expected of this year's member, not only knowledgeable, but also extraordinary insights." Wu Xu couldn't help clapping his hands.

"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness." Xiao Zimo cupped his hands.

"Although you are Huiyuan now, if you want to marry Brother Bai, you must not relax during the palace examination." Wu Xu urged.

"Thank you for your highness, I will do my best to not let the fifth son and your highness down." Xiao Zimo said solemnly.

"Okay, the prince has written down your words." The prince nodded and said.

"The prince still has official duties, so I won't stay any longer. I'm leaving." After Wu Xu said this, he looked at Wu Bai and told him, "Young Master Xiao has to study hard recently, so you should disturb him as little as possible."

Wu Bai nodded and said, "I know Second Brother."

"Your Highness, go slowly." Xiao Zimo sent Wu Xu to the door, and he closed the door again after Wu Xu's figure disappeared on the stairs.

"Yulan, take this pastry down and ask the people in the inn to warm it up." Wu Bai said, looking at the completely cooled pastry.

Xiao Zimo hurriedly stopped him, and said: "No need to do that, I like to eat cold pastries."

After saying this, Xiao Zimo was about to reach for the pastry, but Wu Bai quickly stopped him.

"No, you will take part in the palace examination soon, if you have a bad stomach and delay the palace examination, then the loss outweighs the gain."

"Alright then!" Xiao Zimo agreed.

Only then did Yulan pick up the pastries and head downstairs.

After a while, Yulan came in with a hot pastry, followed by a man.

The man looked at the door and hesitated to come in, until Yulan walked to the table and did not block his sight, and when he saw Xiao Zimo was also inside, he walked in with confidence.

"Brother Zhao, why are you here?" Xiao Zimo stood up to greet him.

Zhao Huikang looked at Xiao Zimo, then at Wu Bai, and after thinking for a while, he pulled Xiao Zimo aside, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that you were almost caught by the Ren family, and I was a little worried about you, so Come and see you, how are you doing now?"

"Let me introduce you!" Xiao Zimo pulled Zhao Huikang back to the table, and said, "This is Mr. Wu, he was the servant who helped me get rid of the Ren family yesterday."

"Mr. Wu, this is my classmate Zhao Huikang." Xiao Zimo introduced to Wu Bai.

Wu Bai said politely, "I've seen Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Huikang replied: "I have met Mr. Wu, and Zimo's matter is thanks to Mr. Wu's help."

"You're welcome." Wu Bai waved his hand.

Then Zhao Huikang chatted with Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo about what happened yesterday, and ate cakes with Xiao Zimo before leaving Qingyue Inn.

In order not to disturb Xiao Zimo's work, Wu Bai stayed a little longer, and also chose to leave the inn with Yulan.

After sending Wu Bai and the others away, Qi Chenghe, who lives diagonally opposite Xiao Zimo, opened the door and asked Xiao Zimo, "Brother Xiao, that guy just now seems to be the little brother from yesterday?"

Xiao Zimo didn't want to talk too much with Qi Chenghe, so he hummed lightly, then closed the door and began to review his homework.

Seeing Xiao Zimo's indifferent attitude towards him, Qi Chenghe's face contorted for a moment, then he regained his composure, stepped out of the room slowly, and walked towards the door of his close friend.

Royal Palace

Master Ren brought Ren Leyao, who was looking around, to Concubine Li's palace under the guidance of the palace servants.

Concubine Li was asking her maid to trim her nails, when a palace official walked in and said, "Ma'am, Uncle has brought Miss Ren here."

"Let them in!" Li Fei said casually.

Concubine Li received the family-visiting book from Master Ren in the palace yesterday, so she was not the slightest bit surprised when she heard the news reported by the palace man.

"Yes, empress." The palace man withdrew as he said, and soon led Master Ren and Ren Leyao in.

This is Ren Leyao's first time entering the palace. Looking at the extremely gorgeous palace and all kinds of rare decorations, she couldn't help becoming more certain about her previous desire to become a princess.

"Greetings, I wish you good health." Master Ren brought Ren Leyao to salute Concubine Li.

Master Ren is Concubine Li's elder brother, Concubine Li was very happy that he came to visit her, she hurriedly asked them to sit down and talk, and ordered the palace servants to bring the best tea to entertain Master Ren and the others.

"Brother, what is the purpose of your entering the palace this time?" Concubine Li asked.

"To be honest, we do have something to ask for help when we enter the palace this time." Master Ren did not beat around the bush, and directly explained his purpose of coming.

"Oh?" Concubine Li waved back the maid who was doing her manicure, and asked while looking at the curvature of her nails, "What is it that bothers you to go to the palace in person?"

"The empress has been in the palace for more than ten years, I'm afraid she can't recognize Le Yao anymore!" Master Ren pointed to Ren Leyao and said, "When she was young, she didn't look like an empress, but she never thought that the older she grows, the more she looks like an empress."

Concubine Li then turned her attention to Ren Leyao, and after a careful look, she found that he did look a bit like herself when she was young.

"It does look a bit like Ben Gong." Concubine Li nodded.

When Ren Leyao heard this, she couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth.

"But elder brother hasn't said what you are looking for in this palace?" Concubine Li asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone.

It is common for concubines to compete for favor in this palace. Some concubines will choose to send young and beautiful people from the same clan into the palace for the sake of solid favor, or for the benefit of their families. At this moment, Master Ren suddenly brought Ren Leyao into the palace, especially It was Ren Leyao who looked so much like her young self, Concubine Li couldn't help guessing that Master Ren wanted Ren Leyao to enter the palace, so her tone became unfriendly.

Master Ren resentfully said: "We entered the palace this time because of Le Yao's affairs, and we want to ask the empress for help."

Hearing this, Concubine Li's eyes became colder and colder. She lowered her eyes and picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and then asked softly: "What are you talking about? If I can do it, I will naturally Contribute, if I can't do it..."

Concubine Li hadn't finished speaking, Master Ren said again: "Yesterday I sent my servant to catch Le Yao's son-in-law, but he was snatched away by Wu Bai. Madam, you have to make decisions for Le Yao!"

"Get a son-in-law under the list?" Concubine Li's eyes faded from coldness, she asked in surprise, "Are you talking about the fifth son, Wu Bai?"

Master Ren nodded repeatedly, and said: "It's him, Le Yao is not young, the honorable families all over the capital don't look down on our Ren family at all, they don't want to marry the Ren family, I just want to have fun out of desperation Yao chose a talented man as her husband, thinking that if the other party was promoted with the help of the empress, he would also be able to lead the Ren family in the future, so that the Ren family could gain a firm foothold in the capital. By the way, empress, everyone knows that the Ren mansion is your natal family, and it is under your protection, you can't allow others to bully the Ren mansion!"

Concubine Li rubbed her forehead after listening, she lowered her eyes and said: "You allow me to think about it for a while, after all, Wu Bai is His Majesty's eldest brother, and he is deeply loved by His Majesty, and his direct elder brother is also the crown prince. , can’t easily offend him.”

"Mother, at that time, the servant made it clear that he was recruiting a son-in-law for the young lady of the Wu family. If Wu Bai put you in his eyes, he would definitely not stop this matter. He dared to snatch you away, which means that he did not put you in the right place." In my eyes, if Wu Bai dares to treat you like this today, he may not know what will happen to you in the future!" Master Ren persuaded.

Concubine Li has dominated the harem for many years, so naturally she is not so easy to be provoked, but she feels that what Master Ren said is not unreasonable. Everyone in the capital knows that the Ren family is her natal family, and Wu Bai dares to act with the Ren family. Put her in your eyes.

If Wu Bai is just let go in such an understatement, there will only be more and more people who dare to step on her head and act wildly.

Thinking of this, Concubine Li said: "Okay, I know what to do about this matter, if you have nothing else to do, you can go back."

Hearing Concubine Li say this, Master Ren heaved a sigh of relief, he knew it was a success.

So Master Ren got up and said, "Thank you, Ma'am."

"Well, go ahead and say hello to my parents for me." Concubine Li confessed.

Master Ren replied: "I will, please rest assured, my mother and father miss you too."

"En." Li Fei nodded slightly.

After the two finished speaking, Master Ren turned around and prepared to leave Concubine Li's palace, but Ren Leyao stood still and refused to move.

"Le Yao, what are you still doing?" Master Ren reminded.

It was rare for Ren Leyao to enter the palace, she didn't want to waste this opportunity, so she knelt down in front of Concubine Li again, and begged: "Auntie, you must help me?"

Concubine Li frowned and said: "I just said that I know what to do, so get up quickly!"

"Auntie, what I'm talking about is not this thing, but another thing." Ren Leyao explained.

"what's up?"

Ren Leyao approached Concubine Li and said, "Auntie, my marriage has been ruined by Wu Bai now, I hope Auntie can help me find a good marriage."

"The Ren family has a title now, you don't need to be so eager, you will definitely find a good marriage." Concubine Li casually persuaded.

"The good marriage I'm referring to is not an ordinary family, but the prince, aunt, please help me!" Ren Leyao begged.

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Li took a deep breath, looked at her, and said: "You dare to think too much, this prince is beyond your imagination!"

Then Concubine Li looked at Master Ren, and said, "Brother, take her away, I don't want to hear her continue talking nonsense."

Seeing Concubine Li's complexion was not good, Master Ren quickly put on a smile and stepped forward to pull Ren Leyao away.
