This is the scene that Zhao Jiaorou saw when she came in.
She saw Jiang Jingyue being pulled to the Empress's side, and they seemed very close.
Seeing that Jiang Jingyue had won the Empress's favor so quickly, Zhao Jiaorou felt very uncomfortable.
There was nothing she could do but try to win her over herself and see if the Empress liked her.
Jiang Jingyue called out sweetly to the Empress in front of her, "Mother Empress."
The Empress felt a warm glow in her heart upon hearing that soft, sweet voice.
She had always wanted to have a little princess, but unfortunately, she never had the opportunity, so in the end, she gave up on that wish.
Unexpectedly, her wish has now come true.
Although she is a daughter-in-law, she can be pampered like a princess.
The Empress couldn't help but reach out and pat Jiang Jingyue's hand, quite pleased.
"Xiaoyue, you and Ting'er should get along well. Your mother has prepared some things for you. Remember to take them back with you when you leave the palace."
Jiang Jingyue was pleasantly surprised to hear that the Empress had prepared something for her.
She immediately shook her head and looked at the Empress before speaking.
"Mother, I don't need anything. We have everything in the Prince's mansion."
After saying this, Jiang Jingyue glanced at Zhan Beiting and then addressed the Empress.
"Moreover, if I need anything, Your Highness will provide it, so Mother Empress does not need to send me anything."
Upon hearing this, the Empress couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiaoyue, you can't say that. His things are originally yours, but what your mother gave you is different. These are all your mother's good wishes, and you can't refuse them."
Since the Empress had said so, Jiang Jingyue didn't say anything more, but just smiled and nodded at the Emperor.
At this moment, the Empress clapped her hands with a smile.
Suddenly, several people appeared behind her, each carrying something in their hands.
Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but widen her eyes when she looked at these things.
She mainly recognizes these things.
These are all valuable jade pieces; if they were in any of her previous places, she would definitely be rich.
So when Jiang Jingyue saw these things, she really liked them.
The Empress couldn't help but laugh when she saw Jiang Jingyue like this.
She knew that every woman would like these things.
Even she herself liked it very much when she first saw it.
"Xiaoyue, these are a batch of gemstones presented as tribute by foreign envoys. Your mother thinks they suit you very well. Your skin is very fair, and you will definitely look especially beautiful wearing these."
Jiang Jingyue liked these items very much, so she had her people accept them.
Consort De, who was behind her, was very excited to see that Jiang Jingyue had accepted these gems.
She loved these gems when she saw them, but there was nothing she could do. The emperor gave all the gems to the empress, and she didn't receive a single one.
Now that the Empress has given all these things to Jiang Jingyue, she is really jealous.
But she had no choice; she couldn't just take it.
So she could only speak to Prince Cheng behind her.
"Cheng'er, why don't you bring your princess over to pay your respects to the Empress?"
Upon hearing this, Zhan Chengde snapped out of his daze. He pulled Zhao Jiaorou along and walked towards the Empress.
Zhao Jiaorou was very happy. She was all prepared, and the Empress would reward her with some gems later.
These gems are so beautiful, and she likes them very much.
To Zhao Jiaorou's surprise, the Empress simply nodded at her.
The Empress had no intention of bestowing any rewards or anything like that.
Seeing the Empress's expression, Zhao Jiaorou felt somewhat embarrassed. She wanted to remind the Empress, but she was too shy to speak up.
"Alright, now that you're all here, let His Majesty tell you something important."
The emperor had been watching from the side. When he heard the empress say this, he nodded and then addressed the two groups of people in front of him.
"Cheng'er, Ting'er, I only have two princes, so the throne will definitely belong to one of you. I am very satisfied with both of you, so my intention is that whoever gives birth to the eldest grandson first will have the throne."
The emperor's words immediately excited Zhao Jiaorou.
She wished she could go back with Zhan Chengde right now to have a baby.
When Zhan Chengde heard this, he was very happy. He felt that he would definitely be one step ahead in this matter.
So he's incredibly excited right now.
On the other hand, Jiang Jingyue and her group remained calm.
Jiang Jingyue knew that after that time with Zhan Beiting, she had taken the medicine, so she was definitely pregnant at this moment.
Therefore, she wasn't worried at all about falling behind others in this matter.
"Do either of you have any objections to this matter? If you have no objections, then this matter is decided as follows: whoever gives birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor will be made the father of the eldest grandson the crown prince."
No one had any objections to this, so it was decided that way.
"Alright, since none of you have any objections, this matter is settled. I won't say anything more. You should all work hard and try to give me the opportunity to hold my eldest grandson as soon as possible."
