The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 615: Birth at the Palace Banquet

"Okay, okay, pay me back!"

Princess Le'an came over and extended her hand, and Jiang Ziyi took the initiative to hold her hand.

"Auntie, you haven't been here for a long time."

Princess Le'an smiled: "Why, do you miss me?"

Jiang Ziyi smiled sweetly and nodded: "Yes, then do you miss me?"

Princess Le'an squeezed her palm and said, "I do."

Princess Kangmei has been talking to Shen Jiarou

"Sister Princess, how old are Zihao and Ziheng now? Are you and your wife considering having another child?"

Shen Jiarou was slightly stunned: "We just follow fate."

Princess Kangmei said enviously, "You are the best. You can just decide whether to have a baby or not."

Shen Jiarou smiled and said, "You are a princess, who dares to put pressure on you? Besides, you have given birth to several children."

Princess Kangmei smiled bitterly: "Every family has its own problems. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Let's go and see the plum blossoms in your house."

Nanny Su brought the maids and brought plum blossom cakes, fermented glutinous rice dumplings and hot drinks to the small pavilion in the courtyard.

"Princess, princesses, and young masters, these are plum blossom cakes and fermented glutinous rice dumplings. Come and try them while they are hot."

Princess Le'an picked up a cup of hot fermented glutinous rice dumplings and took a sip, finding it to have just the right sweetness.

"Not bad, Muxue, why don't you try it."

Princess Mu Xue, who was playing with Jiang Ziheng, stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Princess Kang Mei and the others.

"I'm here, how can I miss the delicious food?"

Shen Jiarou smiled at Princess Kangmei and Princess Le'an. She picked up a piece of cake and tasted it. The taste of cakes and drinks in the mansion was improving every year. The food and drinks in their princess mansion, from meals to snacks, had long been famous in Beijing. However, other families usually couldn't eat them, but they could buy them from the shop under Shen Jiarou's name.

Shen Jiarou's business is spread throughout Dalin, and she has a lot of talented people under her. In addition to researching all kinds of food, desserts and drinks, she also has a good eye for people. She has promoted countless people, so this is also the key to her successful business.

With such a noble and wealthy mother, Jiang Ziwen and his four siblings are truly very happy. They have endless money and a noble status.

On the eve of New Year's Eve, the palace banquet was held as usual every year. Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ruofan brought their four children to the banquet.

Shen Jiarou, who had grown up a long time ago, wore a purple dress that made her skin look like snow. She also wore a bright red cape with a fox fur collar that made her lips and teeth look red.

After being married for many years, she has achieved success in career, love and family. She always has a gentle smile on her face, and her smile is always bright, making her more approachable.

But she is indeed very approachable, but people who are not familiar with her generally have few opportunities to come into contact with her.

Jiang Ziyi held her mother's jade hand, Jiang Ziheng held his father's big hand, and Jiang Ziwen followed closely holding the hand of his third brother Jiang Zihao.

"Mother, will this year's palace banquet be the same as last year's?"

Shen Jiarou looked down at her daughter and smiled: "Actually, it's almost the same every year, but there are some differences."

Jiang Ziheng asked curiously: "What's the difference?"

"People are different. Our ages are different, too. Don't you think so?"

Jiang Ziwen suddenly realized: "My mother is right."

In recent years, Prince Su has rarely attended palace banquets, and no one knows why he came this time in formal attire.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty and the Empress supported the Empress Dowager to the palace banquet. The Empress Dowager seldom attended ordinary palace banquets since she was old after all.

When the Queen Mother saw Prince Su, whom she hadn't seen for two years, she was visibly stunned.

"Prince Su is in good spirits this year."

The energetic Prince Su stood up and bowed respectfully, saying, "My dear sister-in-law, you are joking. You look good this year."

The wife of Prince Su had passed away for many years, and Prince Su was quite lonely. Princess Kangmei always talked to him from time to time, which made Prince Su smile all the time.

"Qing'er, your royal grandfather may not participate in this palace banquet in the future." He felt that his time was coming to an end, and he suddenly came here today just because he missed it a little and wanted to relive it again.

Princess Kangmei frowned, she thought her royal grandfather was just lazy.

"Grandfather, it's okay. Qing'er will support you next year."

Prince Su smiled and said nothing.

Shen Jiarou glanced at Prince Su unintentionally and always felt that he was too energetic.

Shen Jiarou secretly wondered: Could it be a last gasp?

Shen Jiarou's mother has become the old lady of the Yong'an Marquis. Jiang Shufei, who has become the wife of the Yong'an Marquis, is sitting next to her stepmother. Next to her is her husband Li Zimo, who has inherited the title for many years and is now the Yong'an Marquis. Her son Jiang Menye is the Yong'an Marquis's eldest son. The family of four all came to the palace banquet.

Originally, the couple had a one-year-old eldest daughter named Jiang Men Hui, but she was too young and was not brought along.

Shen Jiarou looked at her mother who was already fifty-three years old. The family of four were sitting together happily. She thought this was the best state for their family.

She looked at her father Tang Wenzong who was enjoying the singing and dancing, and found that he lowered his head, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine. She thought that her father must have many regrets in his life.

The Queen Mother noticed the hint of sadness on Shen Jiarou's face and couldn't help but ask.

"What happened to Yiyi?"

Shen Jiarou was suddenly stunned, and everyone at the palace banquet looked at her, including Emperor Wenzong of Tang, Marquis Yong'an's family, and Grand Tutor Fu's family.

Jiang Ruofan also noticed that something was wrong with his wife, but he didn't expect the Queen Mother to ask about it in public.

Prince Su's daughter-in-law, Princess Lin Qinghuan, smiled and joked, "The fourth sister seems to be looking at the little princess and the others. By the way, the two little nephews are already over three years old. You and your fourth brother-in-law can consider having two more children."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty smiled and said, "Yi Yi and the Prince Consort are still young, they should have two more children."

The Queen Mother smiled lovingly and continued, "More children will bring more joy. Anyway, your Princess Mansion is not afraid of having two more children. You two young couples must work harder."

The Xianfei, who had been quiet the whole time, covered her mouth and smiled: "Queen Mother, the princess is very fertile. If she gets pregnant again, I'm afraid she will have triplets."

Concubine Shun looked at Shen Jiarou and smiled: "I have seen twins several times, but I have never seen triplets."

Lipin replied: "I have never seen it either."

Shen Jiarou smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern. My husband and I will go with the flow."

Jiang Ruofan also said at this moment: "Princess is right, the birth of the child is up to fate, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to become a father, and I have not yet formally congratulated him."

He lowered his head, picked up the wine glass, and looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again.

"I congratulate Your Highness the Crown Prince. I will drink this cup. Your Highness, please do as you please."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince admired Jiang Ruofan's good tactics and how he successfully made everyone shift their focus. He smiled gently and spoke.

"Thank you, fourth brother-in-law."

The wife of the Dali Temple Minister suddenly looked at the children and said, "It is said that children can see different things with their eyes. I wonder if they can tell whether the Crown Prince's concubine is pregnant with a boy or a girl."

Hearing this, everyone looked at the children at the palace banquet. Those who were with the children immediately became alarmed. This was an offensive thing that could not be tolerated. They all looked at the wife of the Dali Temple Minister with resentment.
