Li Hongyuan said, “Don’t worry, as long as he hasn’t hurt the people I care about, I won’t hurt him. After all, I’m not crazy enough to do that.”
Jiang Ning thought to herself, your reputation among people isn’t that great.
In her heart, she actually didn’t believe that the Emperor could release the Prince of Yu in three days.
However, since he already said that, Jiang Ning wouldn’t argue with him and appear like a stubborn person.
After Li Hongyuan finished a cup of tea, Jiang Ning looked outside.
It was getting late.
But Jiang Ning didn’t feel it was appropriate to ask him to leave directly.
Last time she asked him to go home, there was a fire in the Imperial Palace that night.
She felt like she had jinxed it.
She hoped that he would take a hint.
Li Hongyuan put down the teacup, stood up, and asked, “How’s your leg?”
“Fine.”
“Nice shoes.”
Jiang Ning’s bed was adorned with a pair of delicate golden embroidered shoes.
She usually dressed modestly, but every time she met him, she wore different shoes.
Each pair was extremely extravagant.
How could someone love shoes to such an extent?
It didn’t seem like her lazy nature.
Jiang Ning understood his look and casually explained, “These shoes, some were made for me by Third Brother, some were gifts from my parents and sisters.”
“Everyone gave you shoes?”
“Yes, because I can walk now, they’re all happy for me. They all know I like beautiful shoes.” Jiang Ning smiled.
Perhaps everyone has an obsession.
She couldn’t walk before, so she obsessed over shoes.
Now that she can finally walk, she naturally wants to wear the most, and the best-looking shoes in the world.
Not only did Jiang Yi specially find someone to make shoes for her, but even Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan personally made several pairs of shoes and brought them over. The sisters from the main family did the same.
Jiang Ning could wear different shoes every day without repeating.
Li Hongyuan watched her sitting on the bed, her smooth feet exposed under her skirt, swinging at the bedside.
“Today, Xiaoqian went to the Prison of Court of Judicial Review to see me.” He looked away and said.
Jiang Ning was indeed concerned: “It’s not good for such a young child to go to a place like that. Did the Empress actually agree?”
“He sneaked over.”
“How is he now?” Jiang Ning asked.
Since the night she sent the sick emperor’s eldest grandson back to the Imperial Palace, it had been almost three months since she’d seen him.
It was said that he had been making a fuss to leave the palace, but the Empress had stopped him each time.
Although Jiang Ning missed him, she wasn’t too worried.
After all, the Crown Prince and Princess Consort were in no position to harm him now.
Li Hongyuan said, “Xiaoqian is fine, he has grown taller and gained some weight. He said it’s all thanks to you, your cooking is especially delicious.”
Jiang Ning glanced at him and said with a faint smile, “What does Your Highness think of my cooking?”
He used to look down on her cooking.
However, Li Hongyuan was not embarrassed at all.
He said frankly, “It’s excellent, I’ve never tasted dishes as delicious as yours. And the wine you sent was also very good. Not only I, but even Li Yuanyuan really liked your desserts.”
Jiang Ning raised her eyebrows: “You gave my dessert to another woman?”
“She knew I don’t like sweets, so…”
“Oh.”
Jiang Ning casually picked up a book and started flipping through it.
Li Hongyuan looked at her and felt like she seemed… a little unhappy?
He said, “I ate your dessert, it was very delicious, I liked it a lot.”
“Of course, after all, who can resist my sweets?” Jiang Ning stared at the book and replied nonchalantly..
