The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 359: Illness and a Mistake

Seeing the fourth princess laughing, the second princess also laughed. Lady An saw her daughter laughing and she also laughed.

The Queen Mother and the Empress watched the entire scene below.

Halfway through the banquet, the eldest princess looked at Shen Jiarou.

"Jiarou won't dance today?"

Shen Jiarou raised her eyes and said, "Auntie, I'm wearing too thick clothes today. It's not very convenient."

Her reason is somewhat far-fetched.

When the Princess of Prince Su saw this, she couldn't help laughing.

"It is quite thick. Could it be your Aunt Zhenhua's idea?"

"Grandma Huang Liu is right. Auntie was afraid that the younger generation would be cold, so she specifically asked them to put on an extra piece of clothing."

Hearing this, the clan wives all covered their mouths and laughed.

The princess smiled slightly when she heard this: "It's cold, Jiarou should be more careful, it won't affect her future fertility."

When she heard the word "childbirth", Shen Jiarou's eyes darkened.

What's wrong with the eldest princess? Has she not given up on her? She really doesn't want to be her daughter-in-law, as that would always keep her underdog. She's not a punching bag, so why should she suffer this?

The queen sneered in her heart: Normally, she treated her princess like an enemy when she met her, but she didn't expect that she would change her mind and strategy now.

Princess, I will not do as you wish.

"My sister, you are joking. The princess is still young. The Emperor and his mother would like to keep her for two more years. She is still far from getting married and having children."

Everyone understood what was going on and wondered if the eldest princess had some ideas.

When the eldest princess heard the Queen say that she would keep Princess Yongkang for two more years, her face changed slightly.

If she stays for two more years, she will get married at the age of seventeen, and her son will have to wait until he is twenty-four.

"Princess, both of your wives are married to people from the capital, so it doesn't matter if it's earlier."

Jiang Shisheng looked at his mother helplessly, and Jiang Shijie raised his eyes to look in the direction of Shen Jiarou.

The third princess was startled: No way, this cousin has taken a fancy to my sister?

The second princess also noticed something unusual.

After hearing what the eldest princess said, the queen's face turned slightly cold, but she didn't show it.

"No hurry, my eldest brother should get married first. Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has reached the age to choose a concubine, and we should start preparing after New Year's Eve."

Emperor Yuan Shun nodded slightly and said, "The Queen is right. The Ministry of Rites and the Hanlin Academy will be responsible for selecting the Crown Prince's consort and two concubines."

The officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Academy stood up and saluted: "I obey your order."

The prince ate his cakes with his head down, expressionless, as if the selection of a concubine had nothing to do with him.

As soon as Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty spoke, the officials and aristocratic families were excited and they all thought about their daughters of marriageable age.

The queen looked at the eldest princess and smiled, "Shisheng is already married, so it's time to put Shijie's marriage on the agenda. Why not choose a wife for Shijie this time?"

Want to marry her princess? No way, she has never been satisfied with the eldest princess.

In the past, she had suffered a lot because of the favor of the late Concubine Dowager.

The eldest princess' face twitched, she smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law, but I like Jiarou more. If Jiarou can be my daughter-in-law, I will be even happier."

When the eldest princess said this, the whole room was in an uproar.

The Queen Mother said with displeasure: "What nonsense are you talking about, Princess? Jiarou is only ten years old. There is a huge gap between them."

Not to mention that the Queen disagreed, she also disagreed. The two of them were not in the same age group, so it was not suitable.

When Shen Jiarou heard what the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother said, her expression relaxed.

Oh, being a woman is really troublesome.

Shen Jiarou became more and more annoyed the more she thought about it, and looked at Emperor Yuan Shun with resentment.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty saw the look in his little daughter's eyes and sighed helplessly. He was innocent too.

Seeing that her father didn't look at her, Shen Jiarou looked at Jiang Shijie again. Seeing that he was still looking at her, she glared at him fiercely.

Jiang Shijie still felt a little hurt when faced with her contempt for him.

The prince did not miss the glare from his sister and even found it somewhat cute.

Luo Cheng beside him was already dumbfounded: What's going on? The eldest princess actually fell in love with Princess Yongkang?

He looked at Princess Yongkang cautiously and sighed in his heart: Why did the eldest princess take a fancy to him? Aren’t they enemies? It’s not an exaggeration to say they are enemies.

Tang Wenzong's face changed: What's going on? His gentle and beautiful daughter was actually favored by Jiang Shijie, a 17-year-old man?

The old lady and the wife of the Marquis of Yong'an looked at each other. When did this matter come about? How come they didn't know anything about it?

The wife of Marquis Yong'an was a little worried about her own daughter. Although she was not her biological child, this child was much more caring than her two concubines' daughters.

After all, she only has this one legitimate daughter, and her status is so noble. She doesn't want her daughter to be tortured by the eldest princess in her future life.

After the banquet, Shen Jiarou returned to Fanghua Palace angrily and even slammed the coffee table in anger.

Ruan Qingling felt sorry for her delicate hands: "Princess, don't get yourself hurt by being angry."

Aunt Zhenhua was puzzled.

"Princess, have you had any private contact with Mr. Jiang Er outside the palace?"

Shen Jiarou raised her head aggrievedly: "Aunt, I promise I never did that once. There were always other people present every time."

She was only ten years old, how could she have attracted such a romantic interest?

Although this peach blossom is not bad, she doesn't like him, especially since he is the eldest princess's son, and the youngest son at that.

Aunt Zhenhua saw that her princess was excited and hurried to comfort her.

"Princess, don't be anxious. The Queen Mother and the Empress don't agree."

Shen Jiarou pouted: "He's seventeen, why hasn't he found a wife yet?"

Find a wife quickly and don’t disturb her peaceful and harmonious life.

Aunt Zhenhua sighed: "Try to avoid contact with the eldest princess and Mr. Jiang Er in the future."

That night, Shen Jiarou tossed and turned and failed to fall asleep. The next day, she woke up with black eyes.

Zhen Luosang was terrified when he saw her: "Princess, are you sick?"

When Mo Wen, who was outside the door, heard this, he ran away quickly.

Shen Jiarou shook her head and nodded: "Is he sick? It's a serious illness."

Why does someone always come to disturb her wonderful life?

In the Imperial Hospital, Doctor Wang was classifying medicinal materials when a figure quickly pulled him away.

"Doctor Wang, my princess is ill. Please follow me."

Doctor Wang was startled and said, "No, I didn't take the medicine box."

If he went there without a medicine kit, it would be like going there in vain.

Shen Jiarou was turning her grief and anger into food, and was stunned when she saw two people suddenly appear in front of her.

"Doctor Wang, why are you here?"

Doctor Wang was stunned: "Princess, you are sick, Eunuch Mo came to ask me to treat you."

But he saw that the princess was full of energy and did not look sick.

Shen Jiarou glanced at Aunt Zhenhua, Ruan Qingling, Nami, Yu Hanger and others in confusion.

"I'm sick?" How could she not know?

Zheng Shutong suddenly reacted.

"Mo Wen, did you hear wrongly?" I saw him running away in a panic earlier, could it be related to this matter?

Mo Wen was not sure: "Didn't Luosang say that the princess was sick?"

Everyone looked at her, and Zhen Luosang shook his head.

"Princess, when I asked you, I didn't say much."
