Chunhegong, Zhu Yuning sat in front of the mirror, Zhu Yuqing behind her was helping her hair to comb her hair and nagging: "Sister, my brother-in-law is entangled with other women, have you let him go so easily?"

"Don't talk nonsense. He met Miss Hu first, and he only met and chatted a few times. How could this be so entangled?" Zhu Yuning spoke for Li Jie. Today was her birthday. Although there were no outsiders attending, she still had to dress up well, and Zhu Yuqing also came to join in the fun early.

"Oh~, sister, you have learned to speak for others before you get married?" Zhu Yuqing made fun of him exaggeratingly when he heard this.

As a result, as soon as Zhu Yuqing finished speaking, she was slapped in the leg by Zhu Yuning. She was so scared that she screamed. Then she saw her sister's blushing face. Unexpectedly, her sister, who had always been strong, would be shy, which made Zhu Yuqing giggle and giggle.

"Sister, you and your brother-in-law have met several times. Today is your birthday, why don't you invite him to the palace to celebrate your birthday together?" Zhu Yuqing suddenly asked again. She was just a chatterbox and her mouth was not idle for a moment.

"Nonsense, how could he, a man, enter the harem?" Zhu Yuning said with a blank look at the sister in the mirror, "And he didn't invite me to attend the last time he had a birthday!"

"This is true. As the saying goes, if the relationship lasts for a long time, it will not last day and night. When you become a relative in the future, there is still time to spend together!" Zhu Yuqing said immediately. Now Zhu Yuning is lazy to take care of her sister who likes to talk nonsense.

"By the way, what gift will my brother-in-law give you this time?" Zhu Yuqing asked again with interest.

"How do I know this? Haven't you asked Yun Yu to ask him for that cake?" Zhu Yuning replied lightly. She didn't care much about gifts and other things. Last Li Yue brought a lot of gifts from Japan and Goryeo, but she didn't really interested in anything.

"Who can give food as a gift? Brother-in-law must prepare a decent gift, otherwise you must settle the score with him!" Zhu Yuqing shouted, as a sister, she must keep a close eye on her sister.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhu Yuqing finished speaking, a woman suddenly heard from outside the door saying, "Yuqing is right. If Li Jie doesn't give a serious gift, I won't agree!"

Then a young woman in the palace dress walked in, with several children following her. Zhu Yuning and Zhu Yuqing stood up and saluted when they saw the young woman, "See Concubine Lu!"

The person who came was Zhu Biao's step-concubine Lu, who was also Zhu Yunwen's biological mother. The children behind him were Zhu Biao's children, Zhu Yunning's younger brother and sister. Concubine Lu's origin was not bad. Her father was Lu Ben, the minister of Taichang Temple, and he was also considered a powerful and powerful family. Of course, compared with Zhu Yuning's mother, Chang's origin.

"No need to be polite. Today is your birthday. I asked your younger brothers and sisters to prepare gifts. Don't dislike me later!" Concubine Lu took Zhu Yuning's hand and said intimately.

"Thank you, Concubine Lu, my younger brothers and sisters, you are also in love!" Zhu Yuning also smiled faintly. On the surface, Concubine Lu seemed to be very intimate with her, but she had known for a long time that Concubine Lu was very small and always excluded their siblings openly and secretly, especially Zhu Yunxiu, was even more suppressed. If it weren't for Zhu Yuning's protection, I wouldn't know how much grievances he would have suffered?

"You girl are so polite to me. When I married the Crown Prince with your mother, my relationship was like a sister. Although your mother was gone, as long as I was there, you would not be wronged!"

Concubine Lu paused when she said this, reached out to touch Zhu Yuning's soft long hair before saying again: "You are not young now, and you are already engaged. I feel really uncomfortable when I think you will get married in the future!"

At the end of the conversation, Concubine Lu also showed a heartache expression, as if she felt sorry for her daughter getting married, but Zhu Yuning sneered secretly. Concubine Lu had long wanted to marry herself, so that no one in the palace would support Yuqing and Yunhuang. At that time, she would bully her as much as she wanted.

"Thank you for Concubine Lu's concern. Even if I get married, I will still be my father's daughter. The princess of the Ming Dynasty will of course go back to the palace often in the future. I hope Concubine Lu will not be disgusted at that time!" Zhu Yuning also replied softly and hard, warning the other party that even if she gets married, she will always stare at the palace so that she will not want to bully her sister and brother.

Sure enough, Concubine Lu was stunned when she heard Zhu Yuning's words, and a hint of anger seemed to flash in her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal and laughed again: "That's natural. No matter where you marry, Yuning, the palace is your home. If you want to come back in the future, don't be polite!"

Concubine Lu is not easy to mess with. Zhu Yuning has not gotten married yet, but as she said, she has already regarded Zhu Yuning as an outsider. After all, the married daughter is strictly someone else's family, even the princess is no exception.

"What are you two talking about? You two are so happy?" At this moment, Zhu Biao suddenly walked in from outside. When he saw his wife and daughter's "intimate" appearance, he couldn't help but smiled with great relief.

Zhu Biao's weight loss has begun to show results. Although he still looks fat now, he has lost a lot of weight compared to before, and he is much more energetic. He does not walk in three steps like before. This change has also made Zhu Biao realize the benefits of losing weight. Therefore, he is more active in losing weight. It is estimated that most of the fat on his body will be reduced in a short time.

"Your Highness, come and sit down. I was discussing her marriage with Yuning just now!" Lu Fei saw Zhu Biao and hurriedly stepped forward and supported him and sat down. Her eyes looked at Zhu Yuning with love, as if she really regarded herself as Zhu Yuning's mother.

"This reminds me that Yuning's mother is gone. I don't have time, so I can only let Concubine Lu worry about you!" Zhu Biao also looked at his daughter with some emotion and said, "In the blink of an eye, his daughter is about to get married. As a father, he also felt a little uncomfortable, just like a cabbage he had raised with hard work, but was eventually robbed by a pig outside.

"I'm sorry, my father is worried about his daughter!" Zhu Yuning also stepped forward and said, "There were many conflicts between them, mainly because of Zhu Yunxiu. Now the relationship between Zhu Biao and Zhu Yunxiu has improved, and the relationship between Zhu Yunxiu and Zhu Biao has also eased a lot.

"Where is Yun Huang? Why haven't he come yet?" Zhu Biao suddenly looked around at this time, and then asked again. On such an important day, Zhu Yun Huang was not here, which was a bit abnormal.

"Here's here!" I heard someone shouting outside the hall, and then Zhu Yunyu was sweating profusely and pushed a small cart in, followed by Zhu Yunwen. It was estimated that the two of them had just left school.

"Cake! It smells so good!" Seeing the cart being pushed by Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Yuqing immediately jumped over because there was a huge cake on the car, exuding an attractive fragrance. Zhu Yuqing has been thinking about it after eating it once last time.

"Li Jie is really meant to make such a big cake!" Zhu Biao couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw the cake in the car. During this period, he had been dieting for weight loss and eating vegetarian food almost every day. Now, smelling the fragrance emitted by the cake, he couldn't control it for a while. Last time on Li Jie's birthday, he only had half of the cake himself.

When everyone was here, Zhu Yuning also cut the cake with his own hands and distributed it to everyone. Zhu Biao also got a piece. Although he was losing weight, today's life was special. However, Zhu Yunqiu repeatedly reminded Zhu Biao, saying that Li Jie told him to ask Zhu Biao to eat less cake. After all, the calorie of this thing exploded, and there was no big difference between a piece of cake and a piece of fat.

After eating the cake, Zhu Biao took the lead in giving gifts to Zhu Yuning. Zhu Biao gave a copybook by Yan Zhenqing. Although Lu Fei and Zhu Yuning had a disagreement, they still had to do this superficial skill, so they also gave a set of jewellery made of jade. As for Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yuning and others, they all prepared gifts.

Everyone gave all the gifts, but Lu Fei suddenly smiled and said, "It's okay for our gift, but what is the gift that Li Banjuan was? He is Yuning's future husband, so the gift he gave must not be bad!"

When Concubine Lu said this, she looked at Zhu Yuning next to her, but Zhu Yuning's face was calm.

Zhu Biao was also in high spirits at this time. When he heard Concubine Lu's words, he immediately asked Zhu Yunxi: "Where is Li Jie's gift, please take it out and let us see!"

"It's already ready!" Zhu Yunxiu immediately stood up, came to the small cart with the cake, took out a small gift box from below, and gave it to Zhu Yuning himself and said, "Sister, this is a gift from Li Bandu, and you have to open it with your own hands!"

Zhu Yuning didn't care about the gift, but he took the gift box and opened it gently. Zhu Biao, Lu Fei and others next to him also stretched their necks to watch. They saw that there were three exquisite glass bottles placed in the box with silk as a cushion on it.

"It turned out to be glass. This glass was quite strange before, but since the imperial court opened a glass workshop, this glass has not been very valuable!" Lu Fei smiled immediately when she saw the glass bottle in the box. Although these three small bottles were exquisitely crafted, they were still a little unpretentious to use as gifts.

"Concubine Lu, the gift is not a glass bottle, but something in the glass bottle!" Zhu Yunxiu immediately explained that he had no good feelings for Concubine Lu, but he did not dare to reveal it in front of his father. After all, Concubine Lu was still his elder no matter what.

At this time, Zhu Yuning also reached out to take out a small bottle. Everyone realized that there was indeed a lilac liquid in the bottle. Then Zhu Yuning opened the lid of the bottle, and a refreshing fragrance of flowers immediately emanated!
