The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 505: Shen Jiarou and his wife visit Shangyuan

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty came to the dragon throne and sat down, looking up and glancing at the ministers below.

"Long live my emperor."

"My dear friends, no courtesy."

"Thank you Lord for your grace."

"How many people have died of cold since winter?"

In response to Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty's question, the Minister of Revenue stepped forward to answer.

"Your Majesty, since Princess Yongkang's heated kang was introduced, the death rate of the common people in winter has been much lower in recent years, with only occasional exceptions."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty nodded and said: "Princess Yongkang is indeed the lucky star of my Dalin."

Winter is long and time flies by.

On the eve of New Year's Eve, the palace was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, and it was full of joy.

Jiang Ruofan supported Shen Jiarou as they walked into the palace banquet, and everyone looked at the couple.

"Princess Yongkang and her husband are here."

The eldest princess raised her head and turned around, and saw a smiling couple walking towards her, her eyes suddenly looked unhappy.

"Princess Yongkang is here."

Shen Jiarou raised her eyes and said, "Yongkang has met the imperial aunt."

Jiang Ruofan did not miss the eldest princess's gaze, and he saluted respectfully.

"I've met the eldest princess."

The princess smiled and said, "No need to be polite."

When the Jiang Shijie brothers appeared, the whole audience looked at them and Shen Jiarou and his wife, with all their attention focused on Jiang Shijie and Shen Jiarou's faces.

"Mr. Jiang wanted to marry Princess Yongkang before, so it's a bit awkward to meet her suddenly."

"You're right."

Jiang Shijie felt bitter when he saw Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ruofan standing together. He was not willing to accept that Jiang Ruofan easily married the person he had always dreamed of.

But... he could have married her and been responsible for her that time, but his mother stopped him.

Princess, why can't you have a child? If this weren't the case, he would be standing next to her now, but there is no medicine for regret in the world.

"I pay my respects to Princess Yongkang and greet her husband."

Seeing that his younger brother Jiang Shijie had not yet saluted, Jiang Shisheng quickly reminded him.

"Second brother."

Jiang Shijie bowed respectfully: "I pay my respects to Princess Yongkang and the Prince Consort."

Shen Jiarou pursed her lips and raised her hand, saying, "No need to be polite."

The two brothers thanked her and stood up. Shen Jiarou looked at the eldest princess and saluted.

"Auntie, Yongkang and the Prince Consort should go over and sit down first."

The eldest princess said calmly: "Go."

After watching the two of them turn around and go to their own seats, Jiang Ruofan attentively helped Shen Jiarou sit down. The eldest princess glanced at her youngest son, and an idea came to her mind.

The emperor and empress helped the empress dowager into the palace and sat down at the main seat of the banquet. Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked down and glanced at both sides.

"..."

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress."

"..."

When the banquet officially began, dancers and musicians began to sing and dance.

In the palace on a winter day, dancers in red water sleeves danced the stunning dance. Their expressions and smiles changed with their dance moves.

The wife of Marquis Yong'an glanced at the old lady of Marquis Yong'an beside her, then looked up in the direction of Shen Jiarou. Seeing the couple whispering in each other's ears, she pursed her lips and smiled.

"Big brother's wife, look how beautiful this water sleeve dance is."

Madam Yong'an smiled gently and said, "Mother is right. They are as light as a swallow and very pleasing to the eye."

Shen Jiarou was sitting next to the third princess and leaned over to chat with her in a low voice.

"Third sister, yam cake with jujube paste filling? Is it delicious?"

The third princess replied in a low voice: "It's delicious, but my sister's cooking is better."

Shen Jiarou smiled gently when she heard this.

Seeing how close the two sisters were, Concubine Zhang couldn't help but smile gently and tease them.

"Princess Yongkang and the third princess have a really good relationship."

When Emperor Shun of Yuan heard her words, he also looked at the two sisters.

"What are the third princess and your sister whispering about?"

The third princess was stunned: Why are everyone looking at her?

"Father, your Majesty, my sister and I are just talking about private things between girls. Since it is a private conversation, it is naturally inconvenient to say it out loud."

The Queen smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Your Majesty, the Third Princess is right, we adults should not ask any more questions."

"Haha, the Queen is right."

Shen Jiarou smiled at the third princess and winked at her mischievously. Jiang Ruofan couldn't help but smile gently when he saw her movements. He peeled a tangerine and handed it to Shen Jiarou.

"Princess, have some oranges to quench your thirst."

"Thank you."

Jiang Shijie was somewhat stimulated by seeing their loving relationship, but Shen Jiarou was totally unaware of all this.

Time passed quickly and it was the beginning of spring. Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ruofan were still lying in bed. Zhen Luosang, Zhang Zirou and Zheng Shutong looked at each other outside the door.

Zhang Zirou said, "The two masters are not awake yet, are they?"

Zheng Shutong sighed: "The bed is so comfortable, just lie down as long as you can."

Zhen Luosang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, the quilt is so comfortable."

The two woke up, packed up, ate some cakes and went straight to the Tang Mansion. Today was Tang Wenzong's day off, so he sent someone to Princess Yongkang's mansion to inform Shen Jiarou that the couple was here to keep an appointment.

"Father-in-law, I'd like to offer you a toast."

Tang Wenzong smiled and raised his glass: "Okay."

Shen Jiarou did not join them in drinking, but just focused on enjoying the food.

"Princess, please try this hairy crab."

Shen Jiarou happily took the hairy crab from Bao Zhiqing's hand and said, "Thank you, brother. It's a pity that Sister Bai can't eat it."

Emperor Wenzong looked at Bao Zhiqing and said, "Come on, Zhiqing, have a drink with your adoptive father."

When Bao Zhiqing heard this, he immediately raised his glass and clinked it with his, "Foster father, I'll drink first as a sign of respect."

Seeing them drinking happily, Shen Jiarou smiled and joked.

"Dad, let's go out for a picnic when it gets warmer."

"Okay, it will probably be warmer in February or March, so we just have to wait for January or so."

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Shen Jiarou and his wife went shopping on the street, accompanied by Zhang Zirou, Zheng Shutong, Jiang Cha, Jiang Wu, Xu Zhifengjing, Shen Feimo, and Zhaermu.

Zhang Zirou said in surprise: "Master, look, there are many people selling lanterns on the street."

"Yes, there are a lot. Ruofan, let's go ahead and take a look."

Jiang Ruofan's heart trembled when he heard her calling his name.

"Okay." Shen Jiarou pulled his sleeve and stopped at a lantern.

"Hello, sir. Please take a look. We have dozens of types of lanterns." The boss vigorously promoted his lanterns.

Shen Jiarou looked around and picked up a rabbit lamp.

"Ruofan, do you think this lantern is beautiful?"

Jiang Ruofan looked down at the rabbit lantern and smiled gently: "It looks good, and it looks a bit like the Madam."

"Ah, like me?"

The boss sold ten lanterns at once and was very busy.

"Sir, take care."

Jiang Ruofan was holding a cute little tiger lantern, which was somewhat similar to Shen Jiarou's cute rabbit lantern.

"Master, there is a riddle over there."

When Shen Jiarou heard the riddle, she said happily, "Let's go over there."

In another direction, Mr. Li was walking among the crowd, holding the child in one hand and holding Yaer in the other.

"My dear, where did the master and the others go? We have been out for quite some time and still haven't run into them."

Mr. Li smiled cheerfully and said, "Maybe he went to guess riddles or set off lanterns somewhere."
