Chapter 44: Xi'er (II)
Since that day, the life of Her Royal Highness the Eighth Princess of the Austin Empire, Hill Austin, who was not taken seriously, has changed dramatically.
A large number of attendants and maids were transferred to the originally deserted residence, and the daily meals became more sumptuous, and new clothes were piled up......
The courtyard of the two with the concubine became lively, and Ciel Austen's life also changed from a simple life of eating and sleeping every day, waking up to catch small animals in the yard and playing, to a daily magic basic course guided by the court magician.
Despite having less time to play each day, Ciel doesn't hate it.
On the contrary, I think that the basic course of magic that is not long every day is quite interesting.
The court magician who came to teach was obviously very experienced, and the one who was short, thin, and hunchbacked, and obviously not a young court magician was not of high rank, but only a fifth-level intermediate magician.
But he often teaches the magic enlightenment of these royal nobles, so he has a lot of teaching experience. After all, "being able to use" and "being able to teach" are two different things.
What was supposed to be a boring magic course became lively and interesting under the teaching of this court magician, so Ciel didn't feel that such a day was any hard.
Moreover, with the improvement of her magic cultivation, Xi'er can see her mother's happy smiling face every day.
The young Ci'er could feel that it was a kind of excited smile, not the same as the faint smile she used to have.
Also, the biggest change in life is seeing that father, Austin VII has become more frequent.
In the past, I could see her several times a year on the festival day, but now, the emperor's father actually checked her magic cultivation regularly, and often held her in his arms to review the memorabilia.
Originally, in Hill's impression, the impression of the emperor's father was really not good, after all, he hadn't met a few times since he was born, and his feelings for this father were not so much the closeness of father and daughter, but more respect and awe.
Reverence for an emperor.
In fact, Xi'er is not close to this "strange father" at all, and does not even like to stay by his side and in his arms.
But every time she sees the jealous and hateful eyes of those brothers and sisters, she is happy to come over frequently to find this unfamiliar "father".
Children also have intrigue and bullying, and Xi'er was a member of the bullying before, in the palace, the power of the mother's family is actually very important, and the status of the child will be greatly affected.
However, now those brothers and sisters who usually look down on her can only watch her coquettish in her father's arms from the sidelines, which is really not ordinary.
It is a very cool thing to base your own happiness on the pain of others.
The so-called non-our race must have different hearts, although it is not without talented children like Xi'er in the Austin Empire, but the children of other people's families are still other people's families after all, no matter how the courtiers swear and how loyal, but people are still selfish after all, only their own family is one heart, although there will be fights usually, but when there is an enemy, it will still be united.
Therefore, there are several Saint-level masters in the Austin Empire, but His Majesty the Emperor still trusts Prince Riel the most.
And Xi'er, with her talent, is very likely to become the next Saint-Rank master, even if she can't become a Saint-Rank master, but the hope of becoming a high-level magician is also very great.
I have to say that as an emperor, he is actually very ruthless, it is impossible to have a bowl of water, and in many cases he will only express his love for "useful" children.
Some people may say, isn't the emperor also a human being? There will be feelings, too.,I'm going to express pity and pity for the daughter who can sell cuteness and don't have a good talent.。
It is true that there will be such cases, but the effect of pity is only to give a little thing when you remember, to order a good meal, and that's it.
Besides, what if talented children can also sell cuteness?
For example, a certain half-elf niece, Austin VII liked it very much.
In the palace, the biggest force is still the emperor, who has been appreciated by the emperor, and Xi'er is not afraid of those brothers and sisters who have "power" in the palace.
"Princess Ciel is a rare magical genius!" A month before her sixth birthday, breaking through the barrier of a magic apprentice and reaching the first level of magician, the old court magician was amazed.
"Ciel, you're awesome." Her mother touched her head with a red face
"Hahaha! Worthy of being my daughter! The hearty laughter of his father, Austin VII, spread throughout the study.
"You have to work hard, too! Look at you one by one! They are all older than Xi'er, and they haven't broken through the first level yet! Austin VII looked at the princes and princesses who were watching their noses and noses.
Shee Austin smirked at the older siblings.
Previously, in the palace, the peers that Ciel could reach were this group of older brothers and sisters, who had always regarded them as rivals.
After getting the appreciation of Austin VII, with the power of the emperor, he was no longer afraid of the power of the family behind this group of brothers and sisters, and now, without relying on power, relying on their own strength, this group of brothers and sisters can not receive a first-level magic fireball technique!
They are no longer my opponents!
Xi'er, who was not yet six years old, said proudly in her heart.
Except for one person......
"Xi'er, you're awesome!" "Worthy of my daughter!" I am used to hearing my father's approval, I am used to hearing my father's praise, and the occasional word that is not a praise makes Xi'er remember it very clearly.
"Xi'er is already very powerful, when Xiaoxi became a first-level magician when she was four years old, it was a rare occurrence in a thousand years." Of course, Ciel knew who her father was talking about.
Tong Xi, the daughter of Prince Riel, was the same age as her, and became a first-class magician at the age of four, nearly two years before her.
The so-called comparison has to be thrown, there is no harm if there is no comparison, as a "child of someone else's family", it will always be the most hateful.
"Xiaoxi! Come here! At the New Year's ceremony, Tong Xi, who was wearing a pure white dress in the distance of his father's dynasty, beckoned.
That Tong Xi was dressed in a simple and simple pure white dress, pure white pantyhose, black leather shoes, simple and simple dress, but she looked very good on her body.
With a warm smile on his face, as if he had saluted his father,
"Uncle Emperor, are you looking for me?" Tong Xi blinked mischievously, and pointed his right index finger at his little nose, which was indescribably cute and cute.
"Hehe~ This is Xiaoxi, your eighth sister, you have also seen it, you have to become good friends." Austin VII took Tong Xi's left hand and handed it to Xi'er, who was already holding it in his right hand.
Two white and tender right hands that belong to the little girl are lightly held,
"Hello, Sister Ciel." Tong Xi smiled warmly.
The delicate little face with a warm smile was particularly beautiful, and even the hostile Xi'er felt the same way.
This is really a girl with a special charm, and even Xi'er, who meets for the first time, can't help but want to be close.
But, Ciel doesn't like it,
"Xi'er is getting more and more sensible, so I usually have to teach my sister more." "I heard from the teacher, Xi'er, you have made progress again, it is estimated that among your brothers and sisters, except for Xi'er, no one can compare to you." I don't like to bring someone else's name in my father's praise.
Yes, she likes this girl who smiles warmly and gives people a very comfortable feeling.
However, they can't become friends after all.
If you really want to be friends, it will only be the day you defeat each other.
Young Ciel thought.
