Listening to him muttering to the twins, Jiang Ranli and Yin'er looked at each other and laughed.
"Ninth brother, Li'er, they will be one month old in two days. When will the full-month banquet be held?" Fourteenth prince turned and looked at them.
"I have asked the housekeeper to prepare this, and the time is set on the day of the full moon."
When talking about his twin sons, Yin'er's eyes were full of disgust. Although the little guys were chubby, fair and cute, Yin'er felt furious when he thought of how they tortured Jiang Ranli to death.
If Jiang Ranli hadn't stopped him, even if he didn't break the legs of the two little guys, he would have beaten them to tears. In this mood, he didn't really want to celebrate their full moon, but the two little guys were so cute that they always laughed when they saw him. With Jiang Ranli comforting him, he couldn't bear to ignore them.
"That's the day after tomorrow. I'll come here early that day," said the Fourteenth Prince.
"What are you doing here so early the day after tomorrow? Oh, by the way, it's the Full Moon Bar with those two fat boys, so I came here early too," said the Tenth Prince as he walked back, rubbing his red ears.
Seeing him, Jiang Ranli, Yinzhen and the Fourteenth Prince all laughed out loud. It was not because they were unkind, but because this was the way the Tenth Prince and Abahai got along, and the Tenth Prince enjoyed it.
On the day when the twins were one month old.
At Yinzhen's instruction, the housekeeper led everyone in the mansion to decorate the entire house with joyous atmosphere. The scene was more lively and magnificent than a wedding.
On this day, there was another hot piece of news in the capital. The ninth prince Yinzhen doted on his concubine's wife so much that when he held a full-moon banquet for her child, it was more lively and grand than the one for the child of his legitimate wife.
Normally, in such a situation, people would say that he favors his concubine but kills his wife. But on this day, Emperor Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, Concubine Yi, as well as the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince, the Eighth Prince, the Tenth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince, and the Fourteenth Prince all presented generous gifts, and the gift lists were jaw-dropping.
"The concubine of the Ninth Master once saved the people of Shandong from danger and never stopped helping refugees. Such a kind person deserves to be treated like this."
"Yes, besides, even if the Ninth Master favors his concubine over his wife, the Emperor and the Queen Mother are there. They will definitely not let such a thing happen. So, the Ninth Master's concubine must have something extraordinary and deserves such courtesy."
Thanks to Jiang Ranli's good reputation, and the strong support from Emperor Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, Concubine Yi, and the princes, people changed their tune and no one said anything bad about Jiang Ranli and Yinzhen.
Ulanara and the wives of the princes gathered together to discuss the situation outside. When they talked about this, they all looked at Jiang Ranli.
"By the way, why is Sister Dong E not here for such a big happy event?" asked Ulanara.
"In reply to the Fourth Lady, our Lady was not feeling well and could not meet guests, that's why the Fourth Lady didn't see him." Chang Shun, who was sent to Jiang Ranli by Yin'er's orders, took over the sentence that made Jiang Ranli at a loss as to how to respond.
Upon hearing this, worry appeared on Ulanara's pretty face, "What's wrong with Sister Dong E's health? She was fine during the New Year, so how come she is too sick to attend now? Is she okay?"
"Thank you for your concern, Madam Sifu. Everything is fine," Chang Shun spoke again.
