It must be the Crown Prince and Princess Consort who were not treating the emperor’s eldest grandson well.

This has greatly affected the reputation of the Crown Prince in the court, and as for the Princess Consort, she was being discussed openly and secretly. Naturally, the Princess Consort was very dissatisfied with the Prince of Yu’s Mansion, but due to the influence of the Jiang Family, the East Palace had to tolerate this and dared not offend Jiang Ning.

After two rains, the weather gradually cooled down.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has always been the grandest celebration in both the palace and the common people’s homes. 𝗳r𝐞𝐞w𝐞bn𝚘ve𝚕.co𝐦

This time, in addition to the palace banquet, Princess Consort Ma, in order to regain her reputation in the aristocratic circles, deliberately held a grander banquet in the East Palace than ever before.

Although it couldn’t compare with the palace banquet, it still invited all noble ladies and princesses.

Even the Empress, Noble Consort, and other concubines in the harem were invited to attend.

Lin Zizi from the Jiang Family also received an invitation.

However, Lin Zizi was recently resting at home because she caught a cold from the sudden weather change. Without their mistress leading them, Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan could not leave the house.

As the Princess Consort of Yu, Jiang Ning naturally received an invitation.

The Princess Consort also requested Jiang Ning to bring the emperor’s eldest grandson to the palace, saying she missed him.

Jiang Ning saw the invitation but didn’t mention it to Xiaoqian.

Xiaoqian had just recovered. How could she possibly let him go back to the East Palace and see the Crown Prince and Princess Consort who had traumatized him?

Jiang Ning herself didn’t want to go either, but since the Emperor wanted to see his little grandson and granddaughter, she couldn’t trust others to accompany them. So, she led the wet nurse and Xiaoman to bring the two little ones into the palace.

The little ones had already started learning to walk, stumbling and falling.

But the children in the palace were pampered, always carried in and out, so they didn’t need to walk themselves and learned to walk especially late.

Some princes didn’t even learn to walk until they were three or four years old.

Jiang Ning didn’t allow this to happen. When the children could walk, she didn’t allow the wet nurse to hold them all the time.

However, during the palace banquet, there were many people and various gazes, so to avoid any accidents, the wet nurses didn’t dare to let go, taking turns to hold the children. Jiang Ning didn’t interfere.

The little ones were cute like Yuxue, and since they were boy and girl twins, they were quite favored by the Emperor.

Even when the emperor’s eldest grandson didn’t come to the palace, the Emperor didn’t say anything. He happily looked at the two little ones, saying that he wanted to keep them for half a day longer and asked Jiang Ning to attend the banquet in the East Palace on her own.

With the children being safe in the presence of the Emperor, Jiang Ning didn’t want to bring them to the East Palace either, so she thanked him for his grace and took Xiaoman to the Supreme Palace.

Since she had entered the palace, she couldn’t just refuse to go to the East Palace; it would be too rude.

She planned to go there, walk around and come back.

Little did she know, many people were there, including Lord Zhang’s legitimate daughter, Zhang Mujin.

This young lady was the one Jiang Family planned to marry to Jiang Yi.

Before leaving, Jiang Yi had asked Jiang Ning to see this young lady, to observe her temperament and whether or not she could be married into their family. Jiang Ning took the task at hand, made some inquiries, and finally found Ms. Zhang.

Ms. Zhang was pretty and gentle, well-educated and polite, a typical well-bred lady.

Jiang Ning took the initiative to talk to her, and since Ms. Zhang knew she was Jiang Yi’s sister, she was very gentle and attentive to her, even offering her tea and refreshments.

The two of them had a pleasant conversation.

Jiang Ning couldn’t leave for a while, and when she looked back and saw Xiaoman squatting in the corner looking pitiful, she told her to go to the Splendid Palace for some food and come back later.

Xiaoman was hungry, so she followed her instructions to find something to eat.

As it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace attendants in the Splendid Palace were very happy, and they were given fruits and refreshments, even gathering together to drink. When they saw Xiaoman, they teased her and coaxed her to drink some wine..
