Mu Yexiao doesn't eat much seafood. No, he is not very picky about food. But looking at Qian Jiujiu's bright eyes, he couldn't help but find it funny. She just wanted him to help her step on the landmine.
Under Qian Jiujiu's expectant gaze, Mu Yexiao glanced at the steamed fish. The preparation of steamed fish is not simple. The taste must be fresh and there must not be any fishy smell, otherwise no one will like it.
Picking up a piece with chopsticks and taking a bite, Mu Yexiao couldn't help but close his eyes. Looking at his intoxicated look, Qian Jiujiu realized that the taste of this steamed fish must be very good.
This time, she knew without waiting for Mu Yexiao to speak. She took the chopsticks and took a bite. The fish meat melted in her mouth and was very tender. Qian Jiujiu really didn't expect that this restaurant, although it didn't look that good, tasted quite good.
They smiled and began to try the next delicacy, which looked like fish balls and shrimps. It seems that these people are very fond of seafood and have researched many ways to eat it. This time, the two of them ate to their heart's content. These special dishes tasted really good.
While Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao were enjoying the delicacies of Yongfeng Town, Fucheng was becoming very lively, especially the ladies from the noble families who had received the invitations. They all started discussing what kind of clothes to wear to attend the princess' banquet.
You have to know that the legend of Qian Jiujiu has been spread since the beginning. These women regard her as a role model and have wanted to meet her for a long time. Originally thought that there would be no chance in this life, who would have thought that the opportunity was right in front of them, and they must give the best side to the princess.
So the ladies who received the invitations all started to discuss, and even ignored the men at home. However, the men at this time had no time to care about the women, because they were about to meet their idols, and even heard that the prince and princess brought their daughters and sons, so they also planned to bring their children.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. These ladies, along with their husbands and children, headed towards the palace villa. The palace villa covered a large area, and the largest area was the garden, where today's event was also held.
The housekeeper greeted the guests at the door with a smile, but after entering, it was Mu Laohei and his wife who came to greet the ladies of the noble families, the officials and their families. Prefect Liu was the most impatient and rushed directly to Mu Laohei.
"Mu Laohei, where are the prince and princess?"
Mu Laohei raised his eyebrows: "This time, the prince and the princess invited you all here. The prince brought the princess to a world of two."
A world for two? They looked at each other in bewilderment? What does that mean? Everyone was disappointed. At this moment, Bei Bei appeared, wearing a light yellow dress. She looked quite cute. She stood in front of them and looked at them.
"Are you disappointed that you can't see Mother? Isn't it the same when you see me?"
Everyone turned to look at Beibei. Beibei looked like a beauty. Although she was still young, it was not difficult to tell that she would be a stunning beauty when she grew up.
"Greetings to Princess Ankang, and greetings to the Crown Prince."
Nan Nan also followed Bei Bei out, and looking at everyone, Nan Nan smiled: "Today, I invited you all here, mainly because we are here, and we should meet you all. You don't need to panic, my father and mother just brought us here for fun, and we didn't want to disturb you all, but since you all already know, it's better to meet each other."
The little kid said such mature words, which made everyone at a loss for words. It was Mu Laohei who spoke up: "Everyone is here to attend the banquet, so just have fun."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but spit at Mu Laohei. Who the hell wanted to come here to play? They wanted to see the prince and princess.
The head of the Wan family, Wan Chengling, also came today, and he was accompanied by Wan Houyu. He had originally wanted to invite the prince and princess to visit the shipyard today, but who knew that these two were not here.
"Are you leaving the two children aside and going out to play by yourself?"
Wan Houyu had been with the two for some time, so he knew something about them. He coughed and said, "The prince likes to be alone with the princess. I guess he should be enjoying delicious food somewhere at this time."
After all, the princess loves to eat, so he dare not say this blatantly, and can only remind his brother indirectly. Wan Chengling narrowed his eyes. It seems that it is impossible to expect the government to find the prince. However, Mu Laohei seems to have an unusual relationship with the prince, so he may not be able to contact him.
Mu Laohei's attention was all on Nanbei and Nanbeibei at this time. He was afraid that there were so many people today and something might happen to the two of them. However, Beibei blended in with the crowd like a fish in water.
The main reason is that Beibei is very cute and can get along well with anyone. Whenever he sees a pretty woman, he will approach her and say, "Pretty sister, what's your name?"
Look, at this moment, Beibei has already been entangled with a sweet-looking girl, who is also from a noble family in Fucheng. The girl also looked at Beibei with a smile: "My lord, my name is Xiao Ruoshui, and I am from the Xiao family."
Xiao family? Beibei knew a thing or two about the noble families here. The Wan family was the boss of Fucheng because they owned the shipyard. The second-ranked family was the Xiao family, who were also relatives of the Wan family. Wan Chengling's wife was the eldest daughter of the Xiao family.
No wonder this girl looks good, the Xiao family is in the seafood business, and they are also very powerful. Beibei thought about this in his heart, but his face was blank, pretending that he knew nothing, which made Xiao Ruoshui feel amused.
"The princess probably doesn't know. After all, we in Fucheng cannot compare with Kyoto."
Beibei said, "We can be friends. I think you are very beautiful."
The way he spoke was really naive and cute. He actually wanted to be friends with someone just because she was pretty. It was really likable. Xiao Ruoshui even blushed. Being praised for being cute by a little kid, I really didn't know what to say.
Nan Nan seemed a little aloof. She just followed her sister and protected her. But in this way, she became more adorable in the eyes of everyone.
Beibei was a little dissatisfied: "Hey, brother, why don't you go greet those little brothers? Why are you following me all the time? Do you also want to follow me to see the beautiful sisters?"
Nan Nan rolled his eyes at Bei Bei. Who is as obsessed with looks as you? How can the people here be pretty? They are not as pretty as his mother, okay? Not to mention compared to his mother, even compared to his aunt, they are not as pretty.
"Then be careful and don't fall. I'm leaving now."
Beibei looked at Nannan with dissatisfaction: "You are the one who would fall down! I am old enough, I am not a child anymore."
The childish words of the two people made the others who heard their conversation laugh and cry. They couldn't help laughing, but they didn't dare to laugh out loud, so they had to hold it in, which was a bit uncomfortable.
Nannan didn't know what Beibei was going to do. Anyway, if Beibei didn't like being here, then he should just go away. There were also some boys who were about the same age as Nannan who came with him today. Seeing Nannan coming, these boys were a little reserved.
The family members had said time and again that they couldn't afford to offend the boy who lived there, and they even had to please him. So for a while, the boys didn't even dare to come forward and say hello.
Nan Nan glanced at the many children and raised his eyebrows: "Come here."
The kids looked at each other and then came over. Nan Nan raised the corner of her mouth slightly and looked at the people standing in a row: "Are you afraid of me?"
Mu Laohei noticed the situation here and wanted to come over, but was stopped by Governor Liu. His grandson was among that group of boys, and he wanted his grandson to curry favor with the prince, so he couldn't let Mu Laohei go over and cause trouble.
"What are you going to do, Mu Laohei?"
Mu Laohei looked at Prefect Liu speechlessly: "Can't you see that the prince is about to bully people?"
He knew the temperaments of the two children very well. After all, he was a veteran under Mu Yexiao, and he was there when the two children were born.
The corner of Prefect Liu's mouth twitched, and he looked at Mu Laohei with new eyes again: "You mean, you can stop it?"
Mu Laohei nodded, indicating that he could. Prefect Liu was so jealous that his teeth ached. He looked at Mu Laohei and said, "Are you a relative of the prince?"
Mu Laohei shook his head: "No, but I have been with the prince for quite a long time. It was when the prince decided to accompany the princess to travel around that he asked me to guard Fucheng."
Well, as soon as this was said, Prefect Liu knew the identity of this guy. The first batch of people who followed the princess down from the battlefield were naturally extraordinary. But he couldn't let him interrupt the prince: "Then don't go over there, the prince is making new friends!"
Mu Laohei glanced at the situation over there, thought about it, and nodded: "Okay, the prince will stay here for a long time, it's good to make some friends."
Prefect Liu's eyes flashed. Are they going to stay here for quite a while? That would be perfect. Looking at one of the boys, he hoped that he would do better.
Nan Nan looked at the group of boys standing in a row in front of him and asked, "Do you like playing games?"
A group of boys looked at each other, and an older boy spoke up: "I wonder what game the prince is talking about? Is it horseback archery or something?"
Horseback archery? Nan Nan shook his head: "No, no, no, I don't like that kind of game. I'm talking about the game of Eagle Catches Chicken."
These children had never heard of such a game before. They all shook their heads, indicating that they had never played it. Then, when they saw the corners of the prince's mouth curled up, they felt a little uneasy.
Nan Nan smiled and said, "Then I can teach you. Come on, come out. What's your name?"
Pointing at the tallest boy among them, the boy stood out somewhat at a loss: "My last name is Xiao, Xiao Wen. I wonder what the prince wants me to do?"
I always feel that the prince’s smile has ill intentions. What should I do
