Of course, Ye Jinyun also saw his cheap father.
Seeing him being flattered by a group of officials with a grin on his face, Ye Jinyun felt very contemptuous of him.
Selfish old guy.
He loved Ye Jinrong so much in the past, but when he saw that she was demoted to a nun by the emperor, he didn't have the slightest pity for his children, and only wanted her to prevent him from getting involved.
This kind of person only cares about himself. If Ye Jinyun hadn't considered that her elder brother would be implicated, she would definitely ask the emperor to demote him and send him to another place, so that he wouldn't stay here and ruin the feng shui of the capital.
…
The dinner went on as normal.
Ye Jinyun sat there, listening to the officials' toasts and greetings to Mo Qiyuan, while lowering her head to eat the food that had just been served to her.
Because she was pregnant, the food for the dinner was specially prepared for her by the imperial kitchen. Not only were the dishes different from those for others, but they also looked better, tasted better, and were also more delicious.
At this time, Princess Yuanjia, who had been sitting next to Concubine Qi, saw the palace maid serving Ye Jinyun a very beautiful dish, and couldn't help but pout and said:
"Mother, the dish on Madam Yun's table is so beautiful and looks delicious. Can Jia'er also have a portion of that dish?"
After hearing this, Concubine Qi felt a little embarrassed. She looked at Ye Jinyun and said to Princess Yuanjia:
"Jia'er, don't be rude. That's for Madam Yun. Just use your own dishes. In fact, the dish in your bowl looks delicious too. Try it."
"All right."
Little Yuanjia pouted, looking a little disappointed, but didn't make a fuss. He just lowered his head and started eating the food in his bowl.
…
Ye Jinyun was watching from above and heard what Princess Yuanjia said. Now looking at the disappointed look on her little face, she felt so pitiful.
In fact, she quite likes Princess Yuanjia.
Concubine Qi brought her up very well. Every time she saw her, she would sweetly call her "Empress Yun". She was also very well-behaved. When the adults were talking, she would play with the palace maids and never cry or make a fuss.
Ye Jinyun only hoped that the baby in her belly would be like her sister in the future and not be too naughty.
The system has already tested and said that this time she is pregnant with a son. Although Ye Jinyun likes both sons and daughters, seeing the look of anticipation from the Emperor and the Queen Mother, she also thinks that this time it is a son, which is just right.
So Ye Jinyun asked Yin Zhu to take the delicious dish that had just been served on his table to Concubine Qi's table.
Concubine Qi saw that Ye Jinyun actually asked someone to bring her the dish that Yuan Jia had just mentioned.
She was slightly surprised, then looked at Ye Jinyun. Seeing that she was smiling and motioning her to let Yuanjia taste it, she also bowed to her with a smile.
Then he picked up the dish with chopsticks and put it into Yuanjia's bowl.
Little Yuanjia clapped her hands happily, picked up her chopsticks and tasted the delicacy she had longed for.
After she finished the food in the bowl, Concubine Qi lowered her head and whispered a few words in her ear.
Then little Yuanjia took the handkerchief, wiped her mouth and hands, and stood up from her seat with a glass of her sweet water.
"Mrs. Yun, thank you for giving the dish to Jia'er. It's really delicious and Jia'er loves it."
Ye Jinyun looked at the chubby little girl standing there holding a cup and thought she was really cute, so he waved to her and asked her to come over.
So, with her mother's consent, Xiao Yuanjia held her cup steadily in her hand and walked towards Ye Jinyun in small steps.
Concubine Xian was sitting next to Concubine Qi. When she saw Princess Yuanjia holding a cup and walking towards Ye Jinyun, her eyes curved with a smile.
When Yuanjia passed by her and was about to step onto the stairs, he quietly stretched out his foot to trip her.
Little Yuanjia was so focused on holding the cup and not spilling it that she didn't pay attention to her feet. Empress Xian's kick just happened to trip her and she fell straight to the ground.
Ye Jinyun saw that she was about to fall, so he quickly reached out to hold her up, preventing her from falling and hitting herself on the steps.
But the sweet water in Xiao Yuanjia's hand spilled on her and Ye Jinyun's clothes.
When Concubine Qi saw her daughter almost fall, she immediately stood up and rushed over.
After taking Yuan Jia from Ye Jinyun, he took her hand and said to Ye Jinyun:
"Sister Yunfei, thank you for your help just now. Did Jiaer bump into you just now? Are you okay?"
Ye Jinyun shook her head. She was fine.
"Sister Qi Fei, don't worry. Jin Yun is fine."
Concubine Qi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. As long as everything was fine, she would be glad. Then she saw that Ye Jinyun's dress was wet with a large area of the sweet water in her daughter's cup.
After checking that Yuan Jia didn't fall anywhere, he said to Ye Jinyun:
"Sister Yun Fei, Jia Er has soiled your clothes. I will accompany you to the back hall to change. Jia Er also needs to change."
Ye Jinyun nodded. With so many ministers present, it would be a violation of royal etiquette to get his clothes wet.
Moreover, Princess Yuanjia drank sweet water made from fruit, which would not taste good if it dried up, so she took Qing'er, Yinzhu and Concubine Qi to the back hall to change clothes.
…
The rear hall where the concubines changed their clothes was a little way away from the Qiongxiang Pavilion and required crossing a small garden to reach it. This was specially designed to prevent foreign guests from barging in.
Ye Jinyun brought Qing'er and Yinzhu, and Concubine Qi brought Princess Yuanjia and her maids. Led by the palace maids of Qiongxiang Pavilion, they entered the back hall.
After entering the hall, Ye Jinyun took Qing'er and Yinzhu to the inner room on the left to change clothes, while Concubine Qi took Princess Yuanjia and her personal maid to the right.
