Jing Huaixu snorted: "Your imperial grandmother praised this girl to the skies, saying she was the best in the world. She is so filial, how could she possibly dislike Shuo'er?"
There was a certainty in his eyes, but also a calculating edge: "If you think it's hypocritical to look down on me, then I'll do it for life!"
Jing Shuo is so handsome that it doesn't matter who he marries. The Zhao family girl is beautiful and is perfect for being a prince's consort.
Regardless of what happens after their marriage, Jing Huaixu is content as long as there are reports of their affection on the surface.
Jinglu remained silent about his father's plans and continued to offer suggestions.
"Father, why don't you hold another banquet and invite some people to the palace to make it lively? You can invite your second brother to the banquet and let him meet the Zhao family girl. This way, we can also consider your second brother's feelings."
"You're so thoughtful of Yutong and your second brother, leaving me to face your grandmother all the time," Jing Huaixu complained, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
Jing Lu chuckled sheepishly, "Your subject is relying on Your Majesty!"
"Alright, we'll do it your way." At least Jing Lu is a simple-minded person. With a capable eldest son like Jing Yan and an obedient youngest son like Jing Lu, Jing Huaixu is already satisfied.

Yue Jiang agreed to take Xiange out of the Cheng family and to have Xiange frequently send messages to the Yue Kingdom in the future so that the Yue Kingdom could see her sincerity. She wanted to keep Xiange by her side.
Before that, we must find a way to make it natural for Xiange to associate with the Crown Prince, and then get her out of the Cheng family.
In the afternoon, Yue Jiang was sewing her embroidery when she stole glances at Jing Yan. Just as he was about to turn the page of his book, she took the opportunity to mention it.
“Your Highness, ever since I entered Jing Kingdom and married you, I have been in the palace and have very few friends.”
Jing Yan stopped turning the pages of his book, his gaze hesitantly falling on her stomach: "Now that you're like this, you still won't be able to make friends!"
“Why can’t we just send out invitations?” Yue Jiang put down her embroidery and leaned closer to Jing Yan to plead, “Your Highness, I would like to invite people to come to the East Palace to play.”
“Since you came to Jing Kingdom, you’ve been staying in the palace. You don’t have any friends outside the palace, do you?” Jing Yan silently guessed someone, wondering if Yue Jiang was trying to elicit a response.
“Of course I have. I remember that girl, Xian Ge, vividly after seeing her twice. Let’s invite her,” Yue Jiang said casually.
Jing Yan: "Invite her!"
If they really wanted to summon that woman from the Moon Kingdom, they would have dared to bring people to the Eastern Palace to plot something.
Has he been kind to Yue Jiang for a long time?
Or perhaps she thought it would be safer to be in the dark.
Jing Yan put down the book in his hand, wrapped his arms around Yue Jiang's waist, stroked her slender fingers, intertwined his fingers with hers, and whispered a suggestive tone.
"Jiang'er, I used to catch spies all the time. Do you know where I liked to keep them?"
