Babies grow fast during the confinement period. The Eighth Prince ate and slept every day. After a month, he grew into a white and plump boy, which was really lovable.

At first, Zhezhe was worried that the child would not grow up and was afraid that he would be a weak child. But in this month, it seems that the Eighth Prince can eat and sleep well and is growing well. He will definitely live a long life.

From being worried at the beginning to being full of joy now, she goes to Guanju Palace to see her child almost every day and cares about him more than Shen Jiang, his biological mother.

"Boys are different from girls. Look how happily he is sucking milk!" No matter what the Eighth Prince does, Zhezhe will praise him.

The Eighth Prince eats well and sleeps soundly. Even if he urinates or poops, people will praise his peeing quality and say that his poop is not poop but "a ton of gold."

Shen Jiang: "I feel that Zhezhe is not like Huang Taiji's first wife, but more like my mother-in-law."

System: "You are a great contributor to our Lao Ai family. You gave birth to a big fat boy for our Lao Ai family. Our Lao Ai family has an heir!"

Shen Jiang: "Damn! It smells like that!"

System: "Our Laoai family really has a throne to inherit!"

Shen Jiang: “…”

Is it because I have completed too many tasks that the system has become like my delicate wife?

System: "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. You are the darling wife! Your whole family is the darling wife!"

Shen Jiang touched his nose. He was praising it, so why was it so furious?

She coughed lightly and said to Zhezhe, "Aunt, don't say such things as boys or girls in front of the princesses. They will be sad."

Zhezhe hugged the Eighth Prince and said without raising his head, "I know."

Shen Jiang suspected that she didn't hear what he said at all!

Zhezhe said, "Tomorrow is the full moon banquet for our Eighth Prince. The Emperor wants to host a grand banquet for all the ministers, and I agree. When the time comes, bring the Eighth Prince out to show them. Among all the princes, there is no one who looks better than him!"

Shen Jiang was helpless and could only instruct the system: "Follow them closely when the time comes, and don't let those people mess around."

System: “Don’t worry!”

On the full moon day, Shen Jiang also dressed up to attend, but the banquet for concubines was held in Qingning Palace, separate from that for men outside the palace.

As soon as Shen Jiang arrived, he attracted everyone's attention.

Concubine Shu tugged at Namu Zhong's sleeve and whispered, "Hey, hey, hey, look at this figure. If you don't know, you would think Concubine Chen is an unmarried girl who has never had a child!"

Namu Zhong's handkerchief was almost crumpled to pieces, but when she thought of her plan, she smiled and said, "No matter how young you look, you are not young anymore! Can a woman who is almost thirty really compare with a teenage girl? Humph, it's just a face-saving thing."

Concubine Shu glanced at her and took two steps to the side.

Bumbutai suddenly sniffed and said with a smile, "The banquet hasn't even started yet, where does such a strong smell of vinegar come from?"

The other concubines all covered their mouths and laughed secretly. Namu Zhong was so angry that her face turned red. She threw her handkerchief and walked away, thinking to herself: "You guys can laugh all you want, but there will be a time when you can't laugh anymore!"

She spent a lot of money to find a young, beautiful and charming woman from the south who was good at singing and dancing. She bribed the person who was going to dance for the court, and later she would let the woman make a splash at the banquet!

After being in the palace for so long, Namu Zhong finally discovered that the Concubine Chen looked neither like a Mongolian nor a Manchu, but more like a southern Han Chinese!

I heard that the women of the southern barbarians are the most coquettish and seductive. No wonder the emperor didn't even look at me. In this case, Namu Zhong will find another woman like this. When the emperor falls in love with her, is there any fear that he will not look at me differently?

Shen Jiang sensed Namu Zhong's emotions and glanced at her inexplicably. The smart Bumbutai also reminded her: "Sister, the imperial concubine seems to be planning something bad, you have to be careful."

Shen Jiang nodded and told the system to protect the Eighth Prince.

The system was silent for two seconds, then said, "It's not the Eighth Prince, it's Huang Taiji."

"What happened to Huang Taiji?"

The system told her about Namu Zhong's conspiracy. Shen Jiang was angry and amused, and said, "Then don't worry about her. She is sick!"

System: "Aren't you afraid that Huang Taiji will betray you?"

Shen Jiang said calmly: "If this little trick can make a man betray me, then this man's feelings for me are nothing more than this."

As they were talking, the banquet began.

The Eighth Prince was first brought out to be shown around by the Queen, and then he was brought to the front to be shown around again. Zhezhe was afraid that the ministers' rudeness would scare the child, so she urged him several times. When the Eighth Prince came back, he was still sleeping soundly.

"Hurry up and take the Eighth Prince back to Guanju Palace. Hailanzhu, you just came out of confinement. It's not suitable for you to sit for a long time. Go back too!"

Shen Jiang thanked the Queen and took the Eighth Prince back first.

The banquet outside became more and more lively, and the sounds of laughter and string music spread into Qingning Palace.

But it seemed that suddenly, the noise stopped, and after a while there was another round of laughter. Then the noise returned to the previous state, as if something had happened, and yet nothing had happened.

In the evening, Huang Taiji returned to Guanju Palace drunk.

He first took a shower, changed his clothes, and drank some sobering soup before going to the inner room to look for Shen Jiang.

Shen Jiang was wearing a thin nightgown, leaning on the couch, looking at him with a smile.

Huang Taiji's heart was moved. He walked over, bent down, picked her up and walked towards the bedside.

Shen Jiang put her hand on his chest, preventing him from going any further.

"What's wrong?" Huang Taiji's breathing was a little unstable.

Shen Jiang's fingers played tricks on his chest, and he said, "I heard that a beauty danced for the emperor today, and because her dance was so beautiful, everyone present was stunned."

Huang Taiji smiled, held her fingers, and said, "That's true. That beauty not only danced, but also poured wine."

Shen Jiang's face looked ugly. Biting the glass and pouring wine? What a play!

She asked viciously, "Did the emperor drink her wine?"

Huang Taiji suddenly pushed her down on the bed, sniffed her neck, and said, "What's so good about wine? Why don't you let me taste Hailanzhu and see if it's sweet or vinegar."

Shen Jiang pushed him away, sat up, put on his shoes and left. Huang Taiji lay down and said lazily: "I gave her to Haoge."

Shen Jiang turned around and looked at him. He waved and said, "Come here, I'll tell you what's going on."

Shen Jiang didn't move. Huang Taiji jumped up, rushed over and hugged her in his arms, biting her ear and said, "Hai Lanzhu's jealous look also makes me unable to stop. Listen to me, dear, I have long been unable to hold my liquor, so I didn't drink that glass of wine. Haoge was making trouble on the side, so I simply let Haoge take the woman back."

"Is the emperor really willing to do this? Is it possible that the woman is not beautiful enough? Is she not worthy of the emperor's eyes?"

"Don't you know that I only have eyes for Hai Lanzhu?"

Shen Jiang smiled this time and obediently let Huang Taiji control her. Huang Taiji did not waste this beautiful scene. After enduring for so long, he could finally eat meat.

At the same time, in Linzhi Palace, Namu Zhong also realized that his plan had failed.

"Haoge, why are you joining in the fun?" Namu Zhong pounded the bed angrily.

But she also knew that the fundamental reason was that Huang Taiji would not like any other woman except Hai Lanzhu.

She spent a lot of money, but not only did she fail to achieve her goal, it also proved that Huang Taiji and Hai Lanzhu were as close as brothers. She really lost more than she gained!
