The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

What happens in Kangge Palace has nothing to do with the people in Fanghua Palace.

All the dishes on the table were eaten up by everyone.

Looking at their own fighting ability, everyone was too embarrassed to lower their heads.

An Yiyin brought someone with a tray and said, "Princess, the digestive soup is here."

Shen Jiarou, who was also full, took the digestive soup brought by Ruan Qingling.

"Bring a bowl to everyone."

After drinking the digestive soup, everyone felt much better.

After resting for quarter of an hour, the Crown Prince and Prince Rong said goodbye to everyone and left.

Seeing the two people leaving, everyone turned their eyes again to the girl sitting on the chaise longue.

"Sister-in-law, Third Sister, Mu Xue, Senior Sister, I feel sleepy after dinner. You can go to the side hall and take a nap."

Everyone smiled and nodded and left.

Shen Jiarou also returned to her bedroom to take a nap and woke up at the last moment.

She had just stood up, lifted the quilt and got out of bed when the bedroom door was gently pushed open, and Ruan Qingling and Xie Youmu saw a figure behind the screen.

"Princess, you're awake."

After changing her clothes and getting dressed, Shen Jiarou walked out of the bedroom and went to the courtyard.

It was hot in midsummer and she came to the courtyard only a few times.

Sitting on the familiar swing, Shen Jiarou's pretty face was filled with a faint smile.

Su Yude stepped forward and pushed the swing, and Shen Jiarou giggled as she swung.

Xie Lianxiang woke up and left the side hall. She heard the laughter and came to the courtyard. When she saw the beautiful figure, she smiled gently.

"Third sister's smile is really contagious."

Hearing the familiar voice, Xie Lianxiang quickly turned around and saluted.

"Your servant greets the Third Princess."

The girl bent down and helped her up with a smile on her face.

"No need to be polite, we are all sisters."

Princess Rong and her daughter woke up and saw three girls in the courtyard, walking towards them holding each other's arms.

"You're all here."

When everyone saw this, they stood up and bowed slightly.

"I've met the emperor's sister-in-law."

When there are no other imperial sisters-in-law around, Shen Jiarou would never call her the eldest imperial sister-in-law, but only the imperial sister-in-law. After all, the relationship between the two families is quite close.

"Greetings to Princess Rong and Princess Muxue."

The two sat down and joined in the conversation.

Princess Rong felt that at the age of 29, she was actually having fun chatting with this group of girls, and she felt that she was getting younger and younger.

The third princess looked a little sad when she mentioned the second princess' birthday and coming of age ceremony.

"Sister-in-law, what are you going to give to my second sister for her coming-of-age ceremony?"

Princess Rong did not answer her directly, but looked at the Fourth Princess.

Everyone followed her gaze and looked at the girl who was oblivious to the surroundings.

"Why are you looking at me?"

Princess Rong smiled and said, "I want to ask the fourth sister if you can prepare the birthday and coming-of-age ceremony for your second sister."

Shen Jiarou was stunned. "Ah, I don't know."

She really didn't know who would care about her, and they didn't have a good relationship.

The third princess pursed her lips and said, "Sister Yi Yi, it's not too late for you to think about it now."

Shen Jiarou pouted slightly and said, "I'll give her a pearl fan when the time comes."

Sometimes I really hate this inexplicable sisterhood. There is no sisterhood between them.

As soon as Princess Rong saw the Fourth Princess's expression, she knew that she would not give her a top-quality pearl fan, but only an average one at most.

Considering the relationship between the two families, she should still give some advice.

"The fourth princess is the legitimate daughter, the legitimate princess. Everyone will know about the gifts you sent out."

Shen Jiarou was shocked: Does this birthday gift need to be reported one by one?

Princess Mu Xue complained impatiently, "Based on the Second Aunt's personality, she will definitely show off."

Shen Jiarou thanked her, and Ruan Qingling and others looked at their princess worriedly.

Because Princess Rong was there, Aunt Zhenhua waited quietly by the side.

"Princess, what Princess Rong said makes sense, don't you think?"

She knew that her master didn't like the second princess, but she had to take the overall situation into consideration.

Shen Jiarou reluctantly said, "Okay, aunt, go pick out twenty more white and pink pearls."

That's all right.

Aunt Zhenhua felt relieved, looked at Princess Rong with gratitude, then bowed and left.

Princess Rong was also relieved to see that the Fourth Princess listened to the advice.

Fortunately, this little girl also understands the overall situation. If her own daughter could be as sensible as her, she would feel more at ease.

Shen Jiarou was very unhappy when she thought about the inexplicable loss of hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver, but she always had a faint smile on her face, and no one could find any fault with her.

She looked at her senior sister and said, "Senior sister, if she didn't invite you, don't give her a gift."

She had no choice but to avoid wasting it, since they were only sisters in name only.

Xie Lianxiang was stunned when she heard her words, and then agreed indifferently.

"it is good."

The mother and daughter who left the palace each had their own concerns.

Princess Rong thought about the pearl fan that her Fourth Sister had mentioned. She thought that even if it was of medium value, it would probably cost at least one or two hundred taels. With forty pearls, it would be a very generous gift.

After all, in the capital, the pearl fan is very valuable, and the pearls are a tribute. It was also a reward from my father the emperor himself, so it was naturally excellent.

Even if it is of average quality, it is fully worthy of the status of the second princess.

On the day of the second princess' coming-of-age ceremony, the banquet was extremely lively.

Many young ladies from aristocratic families came to Kanghe Palace in advance just to have a chance to talk to the second princess and increase her favorability.

In Fanghua Palace, Shen Jiarou, who finished class early, lay directly on the bed and didn't want to move.

Seeing her master like this, Aunt Zhenhua came in and coaxed her gently.

"Princess, let's change into our palace clothes quickly, or we will be late."

Shen Jiarou pouted, and Aunt Zhenhua reached out to help her up, her tone very doting.

"Aunt's good princess, let's just be patient for a few hours, so that others won't be able to use this ready-made evidence against us."

After more than half a year of living together, Aunt Zhenhua has already figured out her master's character.

Sometimes, as long as you coax her, even if she has a little temper, she will disappear immediately. In this respect, no one can compare to her little princess.

Shen Jiarou closed her eyes and let everyone torment her.

"Make this princess look a little more plain." So as not to steal the limelight from that person and cause her unnecessary trouble.

Ruan Qingling looked at Zhen Luosang and others quickly, and then responded.

"Yes, princess."

The princess of their family seldom refers to herself as "this princess" in front of palace servants, unless she is feeling unhappy and wants to vent a little.

When Concubine An saw that the Queen and her daughter had not yet arrived, she felt a little worried.

This is her daughter's coming-of-age ceremony. If these two, two of the most honorable people in the harem and the royal family, don't come, it would be a slap in the face and a joke.

The Queen Mother is the ancestor, so naturally she wouldn't come so early.

In Fushou Palace, Shen Jiarou affectionately took the empress dowager's arm.

"Grandmother, let's go together."

She didn't want to go to the party alone.

The Queen Mother helplessly tapped her little nose and said, "You."

The tone was very doting.

But thinking of the relationship between her two granddaughters, she still spoke up to remind them.

"Girl, be patient. It will be calm for a while. Do you understand?"

Shen Jiarou raised her eyes and nodded slightly to the Emperor's grandmother's eyes that had experienced many vicissitudes of life.

"Thank you, Grandmother, for your advice."

The Queen Mother lovingly embraced her little body in her arms and said, "Oh, my dear, you are indeed the most sensible and considerate little fairy."

Listening to the Empress Dowager's paintings, Shen Jiarou's eyes inexplicably became red.
