The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 769 Jiang Huajin enters the palace, Shen Jiarou dreams

Shen Jiarou brought her second daughter Jiang Huajin to Fushou Palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager.

"The granddaughter has met the royal grandmother."

"Jin'er has met the Imperial Great-Grandmother."

The Empress Dowager smiled lovingly: "Okay, okay, Jin'er, come over here and see your great-grandmother."

Jiang Huajin walked forward happily, and the Empress Dowager took her little hand and sat down.

"Queen, please sit down."

"Yes, thank you, Grandmother, for the seat."

The more the Empress Dowager looked at Jiang Huajin, the happier she became.

"When Imperial Great-Grandmother looks at you now, it's as if she's seeing your mother as a child."

Jiang Huajin said proudly: "I heard that the Queen Mother was already very powerful at that time."

The Empress Dowager said proudly, "That's right. Your mother is very smart and clever. You and your sister are like her and your father. You have inherited all the good qualities and virtues of your parents."

Jiang Huajin was beaming with joy when she was praised. Unlike Jiang Huajin, she was not shy and her smile was full of brightness.

After much anticipation, the Queen Mother finally received good news from a palace maid.

"Your Majesty, the Queen and Princess Chenyang are here to request a meeting!" Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother was overjoyed.

"Please!"

The warm sun of late autumn brings a thousand kinds of warmth to people. Shen Jiarou holds Jiang Huajin's little hand and walks into the main hall.

The Queen Mother sat gracefully and elegantly on the phoenix chair, looking at the mother and daughter who were walking towards her with tenderness and love.

"Your son pays respect to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be well."

"Jin'er pays respect to the Imperial Grandmother. May the Imperial Grandmother be well."

"Okay, no need to be polite. Please stand up quickly. Jin'er, come to the Royal Grandmother."

"Thank you, mother."

Jiang Huajin also bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Grandmother."

She slowly stood up and stood in front of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother took her hand and sat down.

"Our Jin'er seems to be getting prettier. If she continues like this, she might become an all-mighty beauty in the future."

Shen Jiarou covered her face and smiled: "Mother, you are joking. As long as Jin'er looks pleasing, that's all."

"You are very pleasing, just as cute and well-behaved as you were when you were a child."

"By the way, let's have lunch here, and then we can go and have dinner with the Empress Dowager."

"Yes, I will follow your mother's arrangements."

At the dining table, the Queen Mother kept picking up dishes for Jiang Huajin. Seeing how much she doted on Jiang Huajin, Shen Jiarou felt that she couldn't stand it any longer.

"Mother, let Jin'er pick it up herself, don't delay your meal."

"Why would I waste time? I have Jin'er with me. I am enjoying the meal very much, right, Jin'er?"

Jiang Huajin nodded happily: "Grandmother Royal is right."

"Look, our Jin'er has said so."

In the dining room of the imperial study, Ji Chenyu had lunch alone. He seemed a little lonely and even felt a little bored eating alone.

Luo Cheng sighed as he watched his master eating quietly: Without the Empress, the Emperor seems to have no appetite. It's true that love can affect a person's appetite.

Compared to Ji Chenyu's place, the dining atmosphere in Anhe Palace is full of warmth, love and pampering.

"Jin'er, come here, eat more ribs and gain some weight."

"Grandmother, if you eat too much you will gain weight, and it will be very painful to lose weight then."

"Hey, how old are you? How much weight can you gain? You are not fat, why do you want to lose weight?"

The Queen Mother reached out and pinched Jiang Huajin's round cheeks and smiled lovingly: "It has to be like this to feel fleshy, otherwise it will feel like being abused."

Shen Jiarou let Luyu shake her head and laughed: "Mother, who can let her be abused? It's good enough that she doesn't abuse others."

The Queen Mother laughed so hard she couldn't close her mouth when she heard this: "Haha, I'd rather bully others than be bullied by others."

After the meal, the Queen Mother asked Jiang Huajin to stay with her for a nap. Seeing this, Shen Jiarou took her leave.

Looking at the falling leaves along the way, Shen Jiarou looked up and said with emotion: "It's autumn again."

I have experienced more than twenty years of spring, summer, autumn and winter in this world, and I don’t know how many more spring, summer, autumn and winter I will have in my remaining life.

Nan Qi reminded: "Empress, it's windy and cold outside, we should go back quickly."

"Okay, let's go back to the palace." She was also tired, so she went back to take a nap.

She lay on the couch, closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep. When she was about to wake up, she dreamed of Jiang Ruofan.

"Madam, I miss you."

Shen Jiarou woke up in her dream and was stunned when she saw the familiar person beside her.

"Husband."

"It's me, Madam. Thank you for your hard work during this period. You have arranged the children's affairs very well."

"You know everything?"

"Ziwen told me before he came to the shrine that I am sorry for leaving you alone in this world and having to take care of the children."

"Husband, this is what I should do. Will you hate me?"

Jiang Ruofan, a modest gentleman in a flowing white robe, was full of doubts.

"Why do you ask that, ma'am?"

"Now I..." She was the queen of a country, but nominally became someone else's wife. He would be sad if he knew it.

Jiang Ruofan immediately understood what she said, he smiled gently and shook his head.

"This is the best choice. It can protect both your children and yourself. You are still young, and you will eventually have to find another prince consort. The emperor is not a bad choice and destination either."

Shen Jiarou suddenly woke up, looked around, and found that this was the Fengyi Palace's bedroom. She was stunned.

It turned out to be a dream. She thought she was in the main house of the Regent Princess's mansion.

As she sat up, she heard the sound of light footsteps. Shen Jiarou raised her eyes slightly and looked towards the screen, only to find Ji Chenyu coming towards her.

"Brother? Why are you here?"

"I'm here to see you."

The call of "husband" in her dreams made him extremely envious. He did not expect that even after a year and a half since her husband passed away, she still could not forget him.

Shen Jiarou was about to stand up and salute, but Ji Chenyu strode forward and stopped her in time.

"That's not necessary. We are husband and wife, so we should just be easy-going in private."

Shen Jiarou nodded lightly, she would feel more comfortable getting along that way.

"Have you considered Lord Tang's matter?"

"Okay, Daddy also agrees. He is already old, so he should enjoy his old age and live a happy life."

"You are right. Then let Mr. Tang resign in ten days."

"it is good."

"Are you still sleeping? I'll sleep with you for a while."

Shen Jiarou was stunned. Why did these words sound so awkward?

"I have slept well. If Your Majesty is tired, why not take a nap?"

"Okay, I'll take a nap."

Shen Jiarou got up and helped him change his clothes. Ji Chenyu took off his shoes on his own initiative. He was willing to let her change his clothes just to increase the opportunities for them to be intimate with each other.

Ji Chenyu lay on the soft phoenix couch, smelling the refreshing fragrance of Shen Jiarou, closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep.

Seeing that he soon began to snore softly, Shen Jiarou looked at him quietly for a while, then got up quietly, changed her clothes and made up, and went to the door of the bedroom.

Ruan Qingling looked inside, then walked forward and carefully closed the door of the bedroom.

Nan Qi helped Shen Jiarou to the main hall to handle harem affairs. Under Shen Jiarou's management in the past few months, the harem has become more and more orderly and more humane than before. Both concubines and palace people are very happy with this change.
