Feng Yu gave birth to a daughter this time. Because she was the eldest daughter of Jiang, Jiang Wuque held a grand banquet when her full month old baby was born to entertain all the officials in the court.
After Feng Yu was made the empress, the lords of each family naturally had to go to the harem to pay their respects and speak to him.
After breakfast, A'ruan took his two children and followed Wei Min into the palace. He didn't come late, but when he arrived, the palace was almost full of people.
Each of these lords is a good talker. Even if you don't respond, they can still talk to themselves for half a day.
Feng Yu was surrounded by the crowd, listening to them praising the little princess with smiles on their faces. At the end, he looked down at the child wrapped in swaddling clothes in his arms with some suspicion, feeling that they were praising someone else's daughter.
How could they tell that this little girl, whose eyebrows and eyes haven't even fully grown yet, would have the talent to govern a country in the future?
Feng Yu just listened to them silently without responding. When he looked up and saw A Ruan coming over, he smiled a little and waved at him, "A Ruan, here."
A'ruan was the husband of the Left Prime Minister Wei Min, and was also the one that many lords wanted to curry favor with. When they saw him coming, they all greeted him with smiles and hurriedly stood up to offer him seats.
There were people sitting all around Feng Yu. He looked around, raised his hand and patted the bed board under him, motioning A'ruan to sit on the edge of the bed.
As soon as Feng Yu opened his mouth, many lords who had just left their chairs fell back down.
They had just been discussing and laughing for a long time, and the king and queen had indifferent expressions. Now that Lord Wei came over, a smile appeared on his face. This kind of intimate relationship made everyone jealous from the bottom of their hearts, but they could do nothing about it and could only smile dryly.
Wei Miao followed A Ruan in, and after greeting Feng Yu softly, he curiously leaned over the bed and looked into his arms, "Sister?"
Wei Miao spoke in a very low voice, as if he was speaking only to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu smiled and repeated affirmatively: "It's my sister."
Wei Miao then narrowed his eyes and called "sister" again, this time his voice was much louder than before.
Wei Miao accompanied A'ruan in the palace, while Wei Shu played with Jiang Xinli and many ministers' children in the back garden.
April is a warm and blooming month, neither too hot nor too cold, and it is a great time for children to have fun.
Jiang Xinli was handsome and elegant, and he was also a prince. Although he usually had no expression on his face and rarely spoke, many ladies were interested in him and wanted to play with him and make him laugh.
Jiang Xinli was originally sitting on a stone bench, bored, watching children of all ages playing and fighting, playing hide-and-seek, but when he caught a glimpse of Wei Shu coming, he sat up slightly and looked towards her.
Wei Shu imitated her mother, with a stern face and her hands behind her back, and walked slowly over surrounded by several ladies. But when she saw Jiang Xinli in the crowd, she immediately broke down and smiled, "Lili."
She left everyone behind, trotted over, sat next to him, and said as if offering a treasure: "My father made some cakes, and I brought you a few pieces."
As he spoke, he took out the tightly wrapped oil paper bag from his arms, leaned close to Jiang Xinli's ear and said, "Miaomiao has been looking for it for a long time. I hid it tightly and didn't give it to him."
Miaomiao has shown signs of changing teeth recently, and Aruan has cut off her snacks, especially sweet ones. Wei Shu only dared to secretly give him one or two pieces to satisfy his craving, and did not dare to give him more, for fear that he would get a toothache after eating them.
Jiang Xinli's originally cold face showed a smile. He picked up the cake and took a bite. He nodded and said it was delicious. "I'll eat two pieces, and leave the rest for Miaomiao later."
He didn't know that Wei Miao was going to have his teeth replaced, so he thought he would leave it for him if he liked it.
Rong Yuanbo's daughter Rong An came over and saw Jiang Xinli eating the cakes that Wei Shu brought. She curled her lips and reached out to take a piece to taste, "Lili, I want to eat it too."
Jiang Xinli is not a stingy person, so she reached out so directly.
Wei Shu narrowed her eyes and raised her hand to slap away Rong An's outstretched claws. She used quite a bit of force and her hand turned red right after she slapped Rong An. "You want to eat but I don't want to give it to you."
At the same time, Jiang Xinli silently put away the cakes, obviously not wanting to give them.
Wei Shu stood up and walked in front of Rong An, blocking her view of Jiang Xinli. He raised his chin and folded his arms, looking down at her, "Did you call him Xinli? You should call him His Highness."
Rong An was only one finger shorter than Wei Shu, but now she inexplicably felt that she was a head taller than her. She looked at the ground in confusion and saw Wei Shu standing on tiptoe shamelessly!
She asked how come he was taller than her.
Rong An also stood on tiptoe angrily, crossed his arms, and said, "Logically speaking, he is still my brother, so why can't I call him Li Li?"
Wei Shu immediately smiled, loosened his arms and landed on his heels, raised his hand to hold Jiang Xinli's hand, and said, "It's enough for you to know that he is your younger brother."
Then he took Jiang Xinli's hand and went somewhere else.
It took Rong An a long time to understand what Wei Shu meant: You and he are brothers, but he and I are not. He is my childhood sweetheart.
Rong Aan gritted his teeth and stamped his feet in anger, staring at Wei Shu holding Jiang Xinli's hand, and followed after him.
In the hall, Wei Miao sat next to A Ruan for a while. When he felt bored, he pulled his sleeve and said, "I want to go find my sister."
After giving him a few instructions, A Ruan had someone take him to the back garden.
Wei Shu took Jiang Xinli and ran off somewhere unknown. Wei Miao looked around but didn't see anyone, but he ran into Jin Yu.
Jin Yu guessed that Wei Miao would definitely come today, and she wandered back and forth in the back garden for several circles. Finally, she ran into him and immediately stepped forward and shouted with a smile: "Meow meow."
Wei Miao blinked, obviously having forgotten who the person in front of him was.
Jin Yu could tell from his expression and felt a little disappointed, but the next moment, she cheered up again and said, "I am Little Goldfish. We met before in Wei's house in Qingping County. I even gave you some cakes."
Wei Miao hummed and thought to himself that there were so many people who gave me cakes, how could I remember them all.
Jin Yu completely gave up, took out the chestnut cake from her arms and handed it to him, "Do you want to eat it?"
Wei Miao's eyes lit up instantly, and he swallowed his saliva reluctantly, feeling greedy.
One of his teeth has become very loose recently, and his dad is afraid that it will get stuck when he eats pastries, so he rarely lets him eat such food.
Seeing that he looked like a greedy cat, Jinyu smiled and stretched her hand forward again.
Wei Miao's eyes struggled. He raised his arm and extended a finger. He was talking to someone in a low voice, "Then, let's eat one piece?"
Jin Yu's heart melted, "Okay."
Wei Miao picked up a piece of cake at random, and didn't rush to put it in his mouth. Instead, he shyly and sweetly handed it to Jin Yu's mouth, "Here you go."
Jinyu's heart suddenly became like a piece of ice in spring, which instantly melted into a pool of water when it saw the warm sun. She opened her mouth and ate it without hesitation.
Wei Miao then picked up another piece and started eating it in small bites.
Jin Yu was just happy just now, and now that she has calmed down a little she realized that Wei Miao fed her first, probably because he was on guard and vigilant.
If she didn't want to eat, he wouldn't eat it no matter what she said.
Jin Yu's eyes were full of smiles as she looked at Wei Miao with approval.
The soft, sweet and familiar taste made Wei Miao couldn't help but curl his eyes. After eating, he subconsciously pinched another piece.
After stuffing the cake into his mouth, Wei Miao took a bite and felt an inexplicable pain in his gums. His face twisted for a moment, and he raised his hand to cover his cheek. Then he took out a handkerchief from his arms and spat out the half cake and half tooth that he hadn't had time to chew...
“Woo,” Wei Miao blinked away the mist in his eyes, trying not to cry. He looked at Jin Yu and said in a muffled voice, “My tooth fell out…”
Wei Miao sniffed, looked at the remaining half piece of cake in his hand reluctantly, then looked at the half-lost tooth, and said aggrievedly: "As expected, I can only eat one piece. If I eat more, the tooth will fall out... Is this what it means to lose a big tooth if I lie?"
Jin Yu wanted to laugh, but felt distressed. She asked Wei Miao to raise his head and open his mouth. She looked carefully and found that it was the loose tooth that was broken. She wondered, "The pastry is so soft, how did the tooth break?"
Wei Miao felt wronged and wanted to cry. He repeated what he had just said, "If you tell a lie, you will lose your teeth."
When A Ruan came, Wei Miao was still feeling uncomfortable. He raised his hand and poked the half of his tooth that was still loose, and he looked listless.
But how can I explain to my dad? I can’t say that it collapsed because I ate some pastries secretly…
"Miaomiao." A'ruan called him from a distance, "It's time to eat."
Wei Miao was suddenly startled, and hurriedly stuffed the handkerchief and the cake into Jin Yu's hand. He put his index finger to his mouth, made a shushing gesture to her, and ran towards A Ruan, "Here I come."
When being led by A Ruan to the main hall, Wei Miao turned his head and secretly waved and smiled at Jin Yu.
After everyone had gone far away and could no longer be seen, Jin Yu lowered her head, holding Wei Miao's handkerchief embroidered with water patterns and the half of his lost tooth in her palm.
Jin Yu took out her silk handkerchief from her bosom, carefully wrapped the thing in her hand, and put it close to her body.
The male relatives had to accompany Feng Yu for meals in the harem.
While eating, the half of Wei Miao's tooth that was movable broke completely when he was chewing pork ribs, and he whimpered in pain.
Ah Ruan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I told you to drink some millet porridge but you didn't listen, and you insisted that your sister give you some meat to eat."
Wei Miao pouted, that plate of ribs looked the most delicious.
Wei Shu curiously leaned over, reached out to fiddle with the half tooth on the table, and exclaimed, "Why is Miaomiao's tooth so small?"
After she said that, A Ruan finally reacted and asked Wei Miao, "Why is there only half a tooth? Where is the other half? Did you swallow it into your stomach?"
Wei Miao didn't dare to say that he had secretly eaten the pastries, so he hesitated.
Ah Ruan raised his hand to get some water for Wei Miao to rinse his mouth. Seeing that he was speechless, he sighed and said, "It's gone, so just swallow it and it'll be fine as long as your stomach doesn't hurt."
Wei Miao breathed a sigh of relief while drinking water.

She took out a carefully wrapped towel from her bosom, and opened it layer by layer, revealing the half tooth in her palm.
