Chapter 969: Attending the Banquet

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Since the palace was hosting a banquet, it was naturally impossible to invite only the Bulwark Duke’s Residence. Later on, the families of a few important ministers came to pay their respects to the empress.

There was no lack of people who were curious about Little Jiajia’s identity, but most of them did not dare to pay much attention because of Empress Song.

There was only one exception, and that was Consort Liu’s biological mother, the Prime Minister’s wife.

Perhaps because she had learned that Princess Linghui had been beaten up, Madam Liu did not mention her name. She only talked about trivial topics.

Little Jiajia didn’t care at all, but Empress Song sneered.

“Madam Liu, you’re right. I often tell the imperial consort not to be too arrogant and indulging in Linghui so that she won’t lose the dignity of a princess of a country. I was originally worried, since Linghui was born from the imperial consort’s body after all. The imperial consort wouldn’t be able to bear to teach her properly. Now that I see that Madam Liu is so sensible and is

Linghui’s biological grandmother, I think with your guidance, Linghui will be more sensible in the future.”

These words only angered Madam Liu. However, Empress Song was right. Princess Linghui was chasing a boy at a young age and often used her status to bully other noble ladies. She did not look like a lady at all.

The women present were all smart people. Although they did not know the reason, they did not want to offend either of them. They could only pretend to be stupid and smooth things over. They talked about their troublesome children and finally changed the topic.

Little Jiajia shook her head secretly as she watched from the side. These people were really stupid. No matter what happened in the future, Aunt Song was the empress now, and the crown prince’s position belonged to the fifth prince, the son of Empress Song.

Be it the imperial concubine or the Liu family, they could not surpass the two of them.

Although they didn’t seem to be helping either side, they had already offended Aunt Song.

Actually, if they were really afraid that the Liu family would get up one day and dig up old scores, they wouldn’t have interrupted. Hadn’t they heard that when immortals fought, the commoners suffered?

However, these people didn’t stay far away and even leaned forward. They were really stupid and didn’t know it. Look at how angry Aunt Song was.

Little Jiajia did not forget that Empress Song had attacked that Liu person to protect her. She took a walnut from the side and pinched it. With a crack, the walnut broke into two.

She carefully picked out the walnuts and handed them to Empress Song with a smile. “Aunt, eat a walnut.”

“Those people are brainless. I’m not talking to them.” she thought.

Empress Song looked at the walnut in surprise. After a while, she reached out to take it. “Jiajia, your hand…”

“I’ve been strong since I was young. I’m fine.” In order to verify her words, Little Jiajia took the plate and broke it into pieces.

A gulping sound sounded in the hall.

Little Jiajia looked in the direction of the voice and smiled even more happily. “Madam Liu, do you want to eat walnuts too? Here, it’s all for you. If you can’t finish it, bring it back for Princess Linghui to eat later. Take it as my compensation.”

“You…” Mrs. Liu’s lips trembled.

Empress Song smiled and said, “Jiajia is indeed sensible. If I had to say, it’s just a fight between children. It’s normal to step on each other’s toes occasionally. Madam Liu, don’t you think so?”

Little Jiajia nodded seriously. “That’s right, that’s right. She complained when she couldn’t win. How shameless.”

Madam Liu was speechless.

No one knew whether Madam Liu was frightened by Little Jiajia. In the end, Empress Song got someone to send her to Consort Liu, along with the plate of walnuts.

Around three in the afternoon, Little Jiajia followed Madam Li to Qiongfang Hall. At that time, there were already many people sitting inside.

Some of them were people she had just seen in Kunning Palace, and some were ministers in court clothes. However, little Jiajia didn’t care. She scanned the people present and finally found Song Jingchen sitting quietly at a table. Her eyes lit up and she wanted to go over, but before she could take two steps, someone blocked her way.

Little Jiajia looked up unhappily, When she saw who it was, she widened her almond-shaped eyes and hid behind Madam Li.

Madam Li frowned. Before she could speak, the other party had already taken two steps to her side and bowed respectfully. “Princess.”

Little Jiajia smiled guiltily. “Sister MO Yuan..”
