*The fifth princess Jing? is one month old, and Yihuan can finally go out of the palace for a walk. But she heard that things have been uneasy recently. After Yongqi returned to Bai Ruiji, he was frightened by Concubine Xian. She sent someone to ask about it. Although Bai Ruiji said that he was fine, she also had to see how energetic Yongqi was, otherwise she would be an incompetent mother.

But the most important thing today is little Jing's full-moon banquet, which was specially arranged for Jing by the emperor as a token of grace.

Jing? Just one month old, his skin is much better than when he was just two or three days old and had wrinkles all over. His skin is gradually smoothing out and becoming much whiter, and his hair is also much thicker.

But Yihuan always wondered why Jing?'s eyebrows were so light. Neither the emperor nor she had very light eyebrows. But it didn't matter. If Jing? didn't like light eyebrows when he grew up, he could just use Luozidai to draw his eyebrows.

* Chonghua Palace

A banquet was held to celebrate the full moon of the fifth princess Jingse. For this purpose, several princes and their wives gathered here. The emperor loved her very much, and Jingse and her husband sat in the first seat near the emperor.

Only the emperor's blood relatives, concubines and the queen mother sat here. The war was over, the people were happy, the harem was briefly harmonious, and the children were prosperous. For a time, the emperor was extremely satisfied.

At Chonghua's banquet, Concubine Mei had just given birth to the fifth prince, and Concubine Shu had given birth to a little princess who was much loved by the emperor. Many people were looking at Yanwan, to see if her joyful and charming face was sad because Concubine Mei and Concubine Shu, with whom she had close contacts, both had children.

However, disappointingly, Concubine Ling was calm and composed, with no trace of jealousy on her face.

On the contrary, Concubine Xian, who was always as quiet as a chrysanthemum, turned her head again and again, looking at Concubine Shu and Concubine Mei with ambiguous expressions.

In order to make Jing?'s full moon banquet as harmonious as possible, the emperor even allowed Concubine Yu, whom he hated very much, to appear.

Hailan just stood there stiffly, staring at the delicacies in front of her, dazed and not moving much.

She had been looking at her sister, but her sister ignored her.

Concubine Yu knew that her sister was really angry with her. The Emperor had not allowed her to see her sister, so Hai Lan could only wait for such a palace banquet and catch a glimpse of her from afar.

However, looking at Bai Ruiji's smug look, isn't it just because she relied on Yongqi? She is really a villain who has achieved success.

Hailan was secretly resentful in her heart.

I wonder which imperial physician is taking care of Concubine Mei?

Yongqi sat next to Bai Ruiji, not looking at his mother, but just eating. He was also thinking about how his mother treated him. He wanted to be very angry with his mother. When his mother took the initiative to coax him, Yongqi would consider whether to forgive her.

Moreover, he has now changed his name to calling Empress Mei "Emother". He needs to wait until his biological mother can accept this new mother, otherwise his biological mother will definitely think that it is Empress Mei's fault.

It’s all Empress Xian’s fault. As long as Empress Xian is around, Mother is always confused. She refuses to listen to what Yongqi says, and refuses to believe what Yongqi says.

It would be great if my mother could forget about Empress Xian. Empress Xian doesn't care about my mother anyway, so I won't be sad if she forgets me, Yongqi thought naively.

As someone sitting in a high position, he could see the expressions and movements of the people below him. The emperor picked up his wine glass and saw Shu Fei, who was beaming with joy and raising her glass to him from a distance. Jia Fei also had a bright smile on her face and turned her head, eager for his response.

The two most blooming flowers in the emperor's harem both prayed for his grace.

The emperor nodded to both of them, and his eyes glanced back at Concubine Yu. Concubine Yu had a gloomy face, and she must be in great pain. She just sat stiffly in the chair, looking distraught.

And his Consort Xian was also sitting dignified, like a lotus quietly blooming in an unmanned place, so bright and pure. She did not pity the rebellious Consort Yu, even though she was her former good friend.

Although Concubine Xian sometimes made her own decisions, she always remembered who was her master and who she should listen to. The emperor nodded with satisfaction, thinking that Ruyi was worthy of being his childhood sweetheart, as she was so sensible.

The emperor drank the wine with strange joy in his heart, and drank the liquid in the cup. His face suddenly flushed, and his mind became more and more dizzy and misty.

A glance at the fresh faces below showed that each was a beautiful lady, competing with each other for beauty. Flowers of all colors in the world were blooming in his harem, but they were beautiful, but there was nothing new about them. Instead, they lost some of their wildness.

Although Concubine Ling loved him deeply and was diligent and studious, the emperor was surrounded by people who flattered him and admired him, such as the Empress, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Jia.

Concubine Xian was occasionally disobedient, but she had not yet revealed her unconcealed self like in her previous life. Therefore, the Emperor was used to gentleness and felt that Yanwan's gentleness was commonplace.

Therefore, he has been a little cold towards Yan Wan in the past two days.

However, if it was like the last life, with Langhua dying, Yihuan committing suicide, and Jin Yuyan's evil deeds exposed and dying, and the harem was full of rough concubines from Mongolia who only knew how to eat mutton and drink milk tea, the emperor would think Yanwan's gentleness was so outstanding.

The emperor always wanted to have two new people enter the palace, which would give him some fresh feeling.

So he filled his glass again and drank it all.

He wants to tour the south immediately.

I believe the beauties in Jiangnan will have something new to say that will refresh his mind. Besides, the emperor hasn't left the Forbidden City for a long time, so it's time to see the people's livelihood.

Yan Wan also roughly knew the emperor's thoughts. This emperor was like this in his previous life. He could still be warm and affectionate to the old people in the palace, but he often liked new things and disliked the old ones when it came to the concubines who were later appointed. Yan Wan had to learn new things frequently in order to keep his favor.

Yanwan gently picked up a piece of jade with chopsticks and put it into her mouth. The juice burst in her mouth, and it tasted sweet.

Yan Wan thought the food was delicious and ate a little greedily. When the emperor saw her like this, he suddenly felt guilty. His Concubine Ling knew nothing about it, so he didn't know why he suddenly ignored her.

The emperor felt a little reluctant, so he called Jinzhong and said, "Concubine Ling likes this golden and jade dish, so you can give her the dish in front of me."

Jinzhong responded, then carried the plate to Lingzhuer and whispered, "Lingzhuer, this is for you from the Emperor."

Yan Wan was a little surprised, "Oh? I thought the emperor had forgotten about me these past two days."

Yan Wan chuckled, her face showing both shyness and joy. She whispered to Jin Zhong, "Jin Zhong, I'll wait for you tonight."

Jinzhong responded repeatedly, "Yes, I obey your command." Then he turned around and quietly returned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Ling is very grateful for your kindness and said that she will eat it all and not waste any of your kindness."

The emperor couldn't help but smile. He shook his head gently and said, "This is how Concubine Ling is. She's like a child."

The emperor thought for a while and decided that he should go see Shu Fei tonight. Since Yan Wan missed him so much, he would go see Ling Fei tomorrow.
