Remarrying Chun Yuan

Consort Yu had no better options. Although she looked down on Jiang Yunjiao, she could only give it a try.

Jiang Yunjiao felt relieved after receiving Consort Yu's words. After all, Consort Yu had once been His Majesty's favorite concubine and the birth mother of the Third Prince. It would still be useful to send a message through the Imperial Household Department.

As expected, the Imperial Household Department added Jiang Yunjiao's name to the list of those accompanying the Emperor of Chu to appreciate the tea ceremony of the Great Qi, and she would personally perform for the Emperor.

Even if Consort Yu will not attend the palace banquet to entertain the rulers of the four kingdoms tomorrow, it is still respectable to send her niece to perform.

Jiang Yunjiao did not return to the Right Chancellor's residence. Instead, she sent someone back to inform Pei Chun that she would be performing for the kings tomorrow and would be staying at Consort Yu's palace tonight, not returning home.

Upon hearing this, Pei Chun merely chuckled and let it go.

He had considered getting along well with Jiang Yunjiao, but he couldn't stand her scheming and opportunistic nature. It was better that they didn't interact now, since everyone knew that their marriage was strained, which saved him some trouble.

Many people did not get a good night's rest.

Only Yuan Cuo and Liu Yuechu went straight to sleep after returning home, and slept soundly and comfortably.

The next day, upon waking, the two naturally went to attend a palace banquet.

Before she even left the house, Granny Chang had already arrived at the Duke's mansion in person. She had come with people specifically to pick up the two little ones to go with her. "His Majesty and the Empress know that you, Madam, are thinking of them, so they simply sent this old woman to personally pick them up and take them to the palace to see them."

"Moreover, since the four kings are gathered in the palace today, we must let them make an appearance. They all want to take advantage of the good fortune to see your children."

Liu Yuechu: "..." Isn't it just because you're afraid she'll find another excuse to slip away? Why come up with such a hypocritical reason?

"If it's just about taking advantage of good fortune, then Yuwen Chan comes every few days to freeload, and he doesn't even pay for the meals. Does the Imperial Household Department have to provide the money? He was invited by the palace, but the Duke's Mansion has to pay for his hospitality. That doesn't make sense."

Her sarcastic tone was also a way of mocking Granny Chang's shallow reasoning.

Granny Chang smiled. What could she say? She could only put on a smiling face and urge Liu Yuechu to get dressed quickly. She also personally went to discuss with Granny Fang the items to bring for the two young masters, her attitude exceptionally enthusiastic.

Liu Yuechu didn't dress up in a particularly solemn way; she simply wore the clothes of a duchess. Since she had already seen her from afar last night, she didn't need to deliberately wear gold and silver.

Besides, that one is the Empress.

She was still the empress of the Chu Kingdom.

What's the point of dressing up so nicely? She'd be better off just being as relaxed and carefree as usual, casually going to meet people.

everything's ready.

Liu Yuechu then boarded the carriage with Yuan Cuo.

The two children were also held by her and Yuan Cuo, and did not ride in the second car.

Granny Chang didn't force herself to help take care of the child, lest Liu Yuechu and Yuan Cuo become suspicious.

Having entered the palace so casually, Yuan Cuo naturally met Emperor Qi Xiao and Empress Qi Xiao together with Liu Yuechu, and was arranged to sit on the left side of the Qi side.

Meanwhile, Yuwen Chan sat on the other side, watching Liu Yuechu and Yuan Cuo playing with the children, and then came over to tease the two little ones.

The ruler of Yan was very kind and naturally prepared the finest gifts for him.

That was a sacred object of the Yan Kingdom, and it was also used to pray for the two little ones.

Liu Yuechu accepted all the requests and then had them raise their fists and bow in thanks.

She's only six months old now and can't speak yet, but her two chubby little faces beaming with joy are enough to warm anyone's heart.

Amidst the laughter and joking, everyone naturally showered him with praise.

At that moment, a voice suddenly announced from outside, "The Emperor of Chu has arrived!" The hall fell silent instantly, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward.

Liu Yuechu glanced at Emperor Qi Xiao, who feigned composure, while the Empress smiled broadly.

Yuwen Chan and the King of Yan also looked over and saw the stunningly beautiful woman approaching gracefully.

Her voluptuous figure still resembles that of a young girl, yet she exudes a more mature charm and commanding presence.

Her oval face and delicate features, though heavily made up, gave her a unique elegance. On others, such an appearance would seem rather vulgar.

Even though Liu Yuechu had anticipated this, she was still quite surprised when she saw the Chu Emperor.

Because apart from her face being a bit rounder than Yuan Cuo's, her facial features were exactly the same.

She was also very tall; Liu Yuechu carefully measured her and found that she was more than half a head taller than her.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites immediately set up music, and another earth-shattering performance followed by an introduction. Just the act of bowing and paying respects to each person made Liu Yuechu's back ache.

But she only followed the Ministry of Rites' requirements, her gaze never leaving Emperor Chu.

Seeing that she was staring blankly, Yuan Cuo coughed twice and tugged at her little finger.

Liu Yuechu glanced at her sideways and said, "You really are just like me."

Yuan Cuo: "..." In public, is it really necessary to put on such a gossipy face?

Liu Yuechu stuck out her tongue, then turned around to tease the two sleeping little ones.

As if she had gotten used to being swayed in Yuwen Chan's arms, she had just been about to cry, but after being rocked by him a few times, she fell asleep and could not be woken up by the commotion of gongs and drums.

After meeting the group, the Emperor of Chu took his seat in the Chu Kingdom's seat.

The six attendants around him were all handsome and robust men, which made him particularly eye-catching.

Liu Yuechu looked over and happened to see the Chu Emperor looking in her direction.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law exchanged glances for a moment, but the Chu Emperor was the first to look away. She did not want to see her "grandchildren" and acted as if they were strangers, only listening to the envoys from various countries come forward to exchange ideas.

The four kings remained silent, waiting for the palace banquet to begin later.

Liu Yuechu sat there for a long time, and her back started to ache. She checked on the little boy, but he didn't seem to need to urinate at all.

If he cries a couple of times at this moment, could we use the excuse of his breach of etiquette in front of the palace to quickly take him outside to rest?

They're so naughty when they should be, and overly obedient when they should be naughty...

"Cough cough, this wine is a bit spicy." Yuan Cuo picked up a cup of water and began to ramble on. "I spilled it on myself. Madam, shall we go change together?"

"Oh, ah?" Liu Yuechu noticed that there were indeed water stains on his robes, but wasn't this reason too far-fetched? Could he really bring a child along?

"You two go ahead, I'll take the two little ones out to get some sun." Yuwen Chan leaned in again with a cheeky grin, "The rules of your Great Qi are just too complicated, I really can't sit still."

He was quite straightforward.

"There will be a performance later. Doesn't Sect Leader Yuwen want to take a closer look?" Yuan Cuo pointed to the maids who had set up the drums and music. The first one to enter was Jiang Yunjiao.

But Yuwen Chan didn't know Jiang Yunjiao at all. He just glanced at her and said, "She's so skinny, she obviously hasn't eaten enough."

Liu Yuechu: "..." You can be venomous with your own words, but could you at least keep your voice down?

Sure enough, as soon as he said that, everyone turned to look at him.

Yuan Cuo immediately grabbed Liu Yuechu and took her to change her clothes.

Yuwen Chan didn't care at all. "Why are you looking at me? Don't disturb my godson and goddaughter's sleep."
