After staying for a while, Xia Huanyu turned to Luo Qingyan and said, "It's not easy for our family to get together, and today is the Mid-autumn Festival. Let's have a family reunion dinner and enjoy the full moon at your mansion before going back to the Palace."
Both Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan were surprised. The two looked at each other. Yun Shang smiled and said, "yes."
However, she thought it was a pity that Lady Shu had specially prepared a moon-viewing banquet for them today. But it's not a bad thing. Since Lady Shu had already known that Xia Huanyu would take Empress Hua back to the Palace, she might not let Empress Hua feel at ease on the banquet. Now Xia Huanyu arranged to celebrate the festival in their mansion, Lady Shu would probably dislike Empress Hua more. But in this way, Empress Hua could avoid falling into Lady Shu's trap.
Yun Shang pondered for a while and said, "Since it's a family reunion banquet, why don't we invite Lady Hua Guo and others here? I don't know if Lord Hua Guo is back. Let's have a meal together. It's more lively."
Yun Shang put forward the suggestion only because that she felt sorry for Lady Hua Guo who had been missing her daughter for more than 20 years.
Xia Huanyu turned to look at Empress Hua. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead."
Lord Hua Guo's expression didn't change much when he saw Empress Hua. He seemed to have already met her when he was in Huaiyin City. While Lady Hua Guo's eyes had been fixed on Empress Hua since she entered the room. Considering that Empress Hua had lost her memory, she just stood at a distance, looking at her with tears in her eyes.
However, when Empress Hua looked back at her and gently called her mother, her tears fell down uncontrollably.
After a while, she said in a choked voice, "Ling'er has grown up."
Hearing this, Empress Hua couldn't help laughing. "Not only have I grown up, mother, look, I've even had a grandson..."
Looking at the mother and the daughter chatting and teasing Bao'er, Yun Shang was filled with emotion. She turned to look at Luo Qingyan, who was standing beside quietly.
He seemed to be so indifferent when he reunited with Xia Huanyu and Empress Hua.
The full moon on the Mid-autumn was surely worth viewing, but Yun Shang could only stay indoors. She had asked the servants to decorate the yard with a lot of colorful lanterns and prepare some fruit wine and snacks for the others to enjoy the moon in the yard.
The children of Lord Hua Guo's mansion also came. After playing with Bao'er for a while, they went downstairs to play hide and seek. Listening to the laughter from the yard, Yun Shang couldn't help smiling.
After Empress Hua went back to the Palace, it would be not easy for her to have such a happy time. Tonight might be the best memory in many people's hearts.
With the laughter and chatter, Yun Shang fell asleep soon. When Luo Qingyan went back to her room, Yun Shang was awakened by the sound. As soon as she opened
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
Mr. Wang, why do you wear...umm...so simple? I almost didn't recognize you." Yun Shang said with laughter.
Hearing this, Wang Jinhuan cast a glance at Ning Qian and chuckled. "Qian Qian doesn't like me dressing in raffish color. She said that I look better in simple color."
As soon as Wang Jinhuan finished his words, he moved away quickly, and then a dagger fell on the place where Wang Jinhuan was standing just now, and was stabbed into the table made of yellow sandalwood.
Wang Jinhuan screamed, "Qian Qian, don't throw the dagger at random. It doesn't matter if it stabbed me, but the yellow sandalwood is very valuable. The Crown Princess is familiar with us, so she won't blame us. But if you damage others' someday, I can't afford to pay for it as I'm penniless now."
Only then did Yun Shang realize that there seemed to be an unusual atmosphere between Ning Qian and Wang Jinhuan.
Ning Qian frowned. She didn't want to lose face in front of Yun Shang, so she sat next to Yun Shang and stared at Bao'er in Yun Shang's arms. She reached out to hold Bao'er's hand and didn't respond Wang Jinhuan.
Yun Shang knew that Ning Qian didn't want to talk about it, so she looked up at Wang Jinhuan, raised her eyebrows and asked, "So you two? I suppose I should start preparing wedding gift?"
Wang Jinhuan reacted quickly and chuckled, "Maybe I'll also become a father in nine or ten months."
Yun Shang's eyes widened. What did he mean?
But before Yun Shang could ask, Ning Qian quickly took out her sword from her waist and stabbed it toward Wang Jinhuan.
Wang Jinhuan screamed and jumped out of the door, shouting, "Help! Qian Qian, you are murdering your husband..."
Yun Shang looked down at her chuckling baby with a smile in her eyes. Yun Shang didn't know what had happened between Ning Qian and Wang Jinhuan, but she could feel they had made some progress. But Yun Shang knew Ning Qian well, she knew there would still be a long way to go even if Wang Jinhuan kept pestering her.
