The cannon fodder daughter was exiled, she has a system to earn gold

The Qin family was brought to the main hall by the housekeeper, and Xiao Jingyi was already there.

When Xiao Jingyi saw the Qin family coming, he originally wanted to invite Qin Renshan and Jiang to sit in the seats of honor. However, with the presence of prince Xiao Jingyi, Qin Renshan and Jiang would never sit in the seats no matter what. In the end, Xiao Jingyi pulled Qin Zhongyue to sit with him.

Qin Renshan and Jiang were happier to see this than if they were allowed to take seats.

None of the dishes at the evening banquet overlapped with those at lunch.

Xiao Jingyi really did what he said when he came back in the afternoon and punished himself by drinking three cups of wine. This made Qin Renshan feel more at ease.

Qin Dafu, Su Luoqing and Qin Sixi also felt that the fact that a prince could do this was enough to show how much he valued their sister. Their originally uneasy hearts now calmed down a little. At least it was a good start for the time being.

Only Jiang was a little absent-minded. She knew that there was a contract for Gua Nan and Xiao Jingyi to get married, but she did not show it. Her expression was still the same as before, and she seemed to be very satisfied with Xiao Jingyi, her prince son-in-law.

Qin Zhongyue also admired his mother's determination and insight, she was worthy of being a mother.

After dinner, the family said they were all a little tired, so they went to bed early, leaving space for Qin Zhongyue and Xiao Jingyi.

Qin Zhongyue didn't say anything, just looked at Xiao Jingyi to see if he had anything to say.

Xiao Jingyi was seen surrendering and spoke first, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. It would not be good for you to let your family know my identity at that time.

If I don’t do this now, it will be hard for your parents and brothers to stay here.”

Xiao Jingyi didn't say anything else, but Qin Zhongyue knew what he meant.

Indeed, their family were all peasants and had been exiled. How could she have the good fortune to marry King Xiaoyao?

"Let's not talk about those empty words. You deliberately praise me like this. What do you want me to do? Tell me.

Before we go on, let me ask you, our contract still counts, right?"

Xiao Jingyi smiled and sighed inwardly. She was still so direct, completely different from other girls.

But it is precisely for this reason that he chose her. If it were anyone else, it would not have been possible, because under the current circumstances, no woman could be more suitable than Qin Zhongyue.

"Of course the contract is valid."

Qin Zhongyue heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. It was just acting, wasn't it? With the convenience of the title of King Xiaoyao, it wouldn't be a loss for him to cooperate with him in the acting. Well, it should be said that this was the best result at the moment.

As expected, Xiao Jingyi continued, "All you have to do is be a good Princess Xiaoyao. You don't have to give face to anyone except the emperor."

Qin Zhongyue stared at Xiao Jingyi with wide eyes. Wasn’t this what she wanted?

Xiao Jingyi had many things that he couldn't say to Qin Zhongyue, and he felt that there was no need to say them. Seeing her looking at him in surprise, he said, "Just remember that you are the princess of King Xiaoyao, who is second only to the king and above all others. You don't have to look at anyone's face, and you don't have to be afraid of anyone."

"I remember your mother and your grandmother are still here, right?

If they give me trouble, I don't have to do anything about it?"

Qin Zhongyue’s first thought was that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, and the royal family is no exception. She is not made of gold, and she has never thought of pleasing everyone. Instead, there are more people who dislike her.

She is not afraid of other people. As Xiao Jingyi said, their status is not as high as hers. The only ones who can make her angry are the Empress Dowager and the Grand Empress Dowager, and then the Queen.

Of course, she had never thought about being bullied by her mother-in-law or great-grandmother-in-law. If she couldn't do it openly, she could always make up for it secretly.

Now that Xiao Jingyi said this, why did she suddenly get a little excited?

What Xiao Jingyi meant was that he wanted her to just do what she wanted and not have to pamper her even as the nominal mother-in-law. That would be great!

As for the emperor, she was not afraid at all. Her family was exiled because of him. The fact that her family was not killed showed that the royal family knew that the Qin family was wronged. Now that Xiao Jingyi dared to say so, it meant that the emperor would not make things difficult for her at all.

As long as the emperor doesn't make things difficult for her, it's really not a big deal for other people. After all, she is only a princess in name, and she can't be beaten or punished at will. The royal family also has to save face, and at most they are just trying to do something sneaky.

What she fears least is a sneak attack.

Qin Zhongyue thought about it for a moment, and Xiao Jingyi nodded when he saw that she had figured it out.

"Don't worry about it, but there will inevitably be some small tricks that will trip you up. I may not be able to take care of you all the time, so you need to take more care of it yourself."

Qin Zhongyue nodded and walked around Xiao Jingyi. Xiao Jingyi was a little confused by her gaze. "What's wrong?"

"I'm looking at how much you're worth. I'm willing to risk my reputation and my life to protect you from bad relationships and disasters. If you can't give me more benefits, I'll be at a loss.

You never know, you might lose your life someday."

Xiao Jingyi was once again surprised at Qin Zhongyue's cleverness and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will never let your life be in danger.

After all, you are my princess, I am not that useless."

Qin Zhongyue looked at the increased poison in his body, curled her lips, and did not expose him.

She had no interest in how he was poisoned, but now that she had his guarantee, that was enough.

This is all she is good at, and she is very self-aware.

Xiao Jingyi took out a deed for a large courtyard house with five entrances in the outer city close to the inner city, "This is the interest I give you. Of course, it's more than this interest. I'll make up for it when I get something better in the future."

Qin Zhongyue looked at the house deed and knew that it was specially prepared for his parents, which showed that he was sincere.

I have plenty of money, but it is impossible to buy a suitable house of this size in the imperial city where every inch of land is valuable.

Because the Qin family is of common status, if they want to buy such a mansion on their own, they need an official in their family to be worthy of it. It is unknown how long they will have to wait, and it is not certain whether they can even do so.

But if it is granted by the royal family, you can live there legitimately.

"Thanks."

I have to say that this gift touched Qin Zhongyue's heart.

Seeing that Qin Zhongyue looked very happy, Xiao Jingyi also became happy. Finally, this matter made her happy.

“As long as you like it.

Your princess has been ordered to arrive tomorrow with Zhai Yi and others, and will come to the palace to express her gratitude afterwards. If the Queen Mother summons you, it may be difficult for her, so don't be afraid."

Qin Zhongyue understood that this was about to begin, "I don't know the court etiquette, can I be casual?

Why don't you find someone to teach me the main points?"

Xiao Jingyi nodded. He was still thinking about how to talk to her about this. Now it would be best if she brought it up herself.

"I have asked the Queen for a nanny, and she should come with us tomorrow."

Qin Zhongyue heard that he was ready, so she didn't have to worry about it anymore.

"Okay, I'm going to rest now, you can do whatever you want."

Qin Zhongyue said this and went back to her yard, only to find that Xiao Jingyi had followed her.

Xiao Jingyi said calmly, "You are my only princess, and I love you so much, so naturally I have to live in the same courtyard with you.

Otherwise, tomorrow morning, bad gossip will spread around the mansion about you."

So he's doing this for her own good. Well, it's not like we've slept in the same bed before.
