Ye Muchen: So it was her!

Jingxue: Acting all high and mighty!

That day, Ye Muchen was dressed as a military general, but today he exudes the aura of a king. His black brocade robe complements his perfect figure, and with his deep starry eyes and handsome features, it is undeniable that he is captivating!

Jingxue saw a luxurious carriage at the door, and without even greeting Ye Muchen, she turned around, took the small package from Xiaoman's hand, and said to her, "Let's go back! Don't let Xiaochen eat too much!"

Ye Muchen blurted out, "Who is Xiao Chenchen?"

"A bad bird!" Jingxue said, and got straight into the carriage!

Ye Muchen "..."

Jingxue leaned against the carriage and closed her eyes to rest. After Ye Muchen got in, the driver cracked his whip and the carriage slowly started moving!

Ye Muchen unconsciously began to scrutinize Jing Xue closely. To be honest, this girl was truly beautiful, with skin as white as snow and long eyelashes like tiny brushes! Her red lips resembled peach blossoms blooming in spring!

A hazy blue gown accentuated her regal air!

Jingxue: With a thunderous roar, I'm about to make my grand entrance!

The moment Ye Muchen learned that she was Jingxue, he felt relieved. He knew that what the girl said that day must have been made up. It was the girl's resentment that was making things up, and she was angry that he had ignored her!

That brat, she has such a sharp tongue!

Thinking of this, Ye Muchen couldn't help but ask, "You also have a name called Spring Equinox?"

Jingxue opened her eyes and glanced at him. "My full name is Jingxue, and my nickname that day was Spring Equinox!"

Ye Muchen chuckled, "So what's your nickname today? Not Autumn Equinox, is it?"

"Awakening of Insects!" Jingxue said, then closed her eyes again, looking like she didn't want to talk to him.

Jingxue originally wanted to say "Qingming", but in the end she didn't dare!

Ye Muchen "..."

He didn't want to make a fool of himself, and it was already an exception for him to speak to her today, so he closed his eyes to rest!

After alighting from the carriage at the palace gate, a eunuch brought over a sedan chair.

Upon entering the palace gates, Jingxue looked at the endless pavilions and towers and couldn't help but exclaim: This village is really big!

In the original owner's memory, she had never been to the palace, and missed two opportunities to enter the palace for some unknown reason!

The Third Princess's full moon banquet was held in Yuhua Palace, but it was still early. Ye Muchen wanted to take Jingxue to Shou Kang Palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager first, and make up for all the previous visits in one trip to the palace!

Jingxue leisurely enjoyed the scenery of the palace along the way, while also taking note of the trees and flowers there!

When I passed through the Imperial Garden, it was the season when chrysanthemums were in bloom.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the fragrance of the flowers seemed to intensify!

When we arrived at the entrance of Shou Kang Palace, there was a crowd of people gathered in front of us. I wondered what they were doing.

As Ye Muchen and Jingxue alighted from the sedan chair, eunuchs and palace maids rushed forward to pay their respects upon seeing Ye Muchen!

At that moment, Jingxue also saw the central figure in the crowd, a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes.

The woman who had been bending over looked up and, upon seeing Ye Muchen, immediately cried out in tears, "Cousin Muchen!"

Could this be the legendary "Consort Li"?

Jingxue also thought of this person's name, "Zou Lishuang"!

Previously, Jingxue hadn't paid attention to this information. Thinking of this, Jingxue immediately imagined the scene of Ye Muchen loudly calling out her cousin's name.

"Awesome! Awesome!"

"What's wrong?" Ye Muchen interrupted Jingxue's thoughts.

A palace maid beside Zou Lishuang stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, today Consort Li finished her postpartum confinement and wanted to come to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, but unfortunately, she was still weak and twisted her ankle when she got out of the sedan chair!"

Jingxue: Oh my god! If you didn't know better, you'd think she'd had her leg amputated! What's going on with her crying like that?

Ye Muchen said coldly, "If you're injured, go fetch the imperial physician, or carry you back for treatment! Don't block this place!"

"Cousin Mu Chen, I'm fine. Paying respects to the Empress Dowager is the most important thing! This must be your princess consort, right?" Consort Li wiped away her tears and said with a mournful look in her eyes!

She hadn't expected Jingxue to be so beautiful. Over the years, the General's wife had protected this legitimate daughter extremely well; almost no one had ever seen her, and even fewer knew her background.

Ye Muchen turned to look at Jingxue, suddenly put his arm around her waist, and said with eyes full of affection, "Xue'er, this is Consort Li, the birth mother of the Third Princess!"

Jingxue felt goosebumps all over her body; it was a bit uncomfortable to walk on!

She immediately gritted her teeth and smiled at Ye Muchen, saying in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Congratulations, Your Highness, on becoming the Third Princess's biological father, no, uncle!"

Ye Muchen looked at Jingxue, who was forcing a smile, while the brat was stomping on his foot under her robe!

To outsiders, the two of them look incredibly loving!

Ye Muchen was the first to let go!

Jingxue nodded slightly. "Jingxue first congratulates Consort Li on the birth of her princess!"

"Thank you, Princess Consort Zhan! Congratulations!" With the help of a palace maid, Zou Lishuang straightened up and clutched her handkerchief tightly when she saw the two of them.

If it weren't for her father's insistence on sending her to the palace, she would be the one with her cousin right now!

Ye Muchen was still savoring the feeling in his hands just now; that brat's waist was so slender and soft.

As for his feet, he didn't feel any pain!

Jingxue also got a good look at Zou Lishuang. She had a standard oval face and fairly pretty features, but somehow she just didn't look very comfortable!

Oh my god! It was a nostril.

When most people look straight ahead, their nostrils are naturally visible, but Zou Lishuang's nostrils are upright and fully exposed!

A classic example of someone with upturned nostrils!

Jingxue unconsciously looked up at the sky, wondering if water would get into her nose if it rained.

That scoundrel has terrible taste!

It's obvious they've never eaten any good pork!

Ye Muchen was the first to react, saying, "If there's nothing else, let's go in!" Then he pulled Jingxue through the gate of Shou Kang Palace!

Zou Lishuang quietly led the group to follow behind!

Jingxue looked at her wrist, which was being held by Ye Muchen. Even though there was clothing between them, she felt very uncomfortable. She was so angry that she whispered, "Let go of your hand!" After saying that, she reached out her other hand and poked Ye Muchen hard!

Ye Muchen winced in pain and released his grip. He turned around and, mimicking Jingxue, smiled and gritted his teeth, "Shut up! You're just putting on an act!"

Jingxue rolled her eyes at him!

You bastard, just you wait! When we get back, I'll definitely get you some laxatives, and I guarantee you'll be so sore you won't be able to pull up your pants!

After everyone had exchanged greetings, Jingxue saw the Empress Dowager sitting gracefully in the center of the room with a smile on her face!

"Consort Li has just finished her confinement period and has already come to pay her respects to me. How thoughtful of her! Please have a seat! Mu Chen, you two, please sit down as well! Has Xue'er recovered well?" The Empress Dowager's face was kind and benevolent.

Jingxue did not sit down but replied first, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty! Jingxue has basically recovered!"

The Empress Dowager looked at Jingxue with a smile. "This child is still not used to the royal rules. You should call me 'Mother' like Chen'er! It's been more than half a year since you got married. Now that you're feeling better, it's time for you to have children for our royal family. Chen'er is already 22!"
