Concubine Rong poked her on the nose, pretending to be angry, and said, "Next time you dare to sneak out, Mother Concubine will let Father imprison you for five years."
Shen Mubai was taken aback, and quickly said coquettishly, "I made a mistake with my mother and concubine, so I won't dare next time."
Concubine Rong said sadly, "You are not in good health, every time you get sick, your mother and concubine will be worried and frightened along with you."
Shen Mubai drank the medicine in one breath, ate the candied fruit with a wrinkled face, and then said, "Concubine Mu, I'm sorry."
Concubine Rong really dotes on Wenren Yingluo, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is her lifeline.
Even Shen Mubai, a counterfeit, couldn't help being moved.
Concubine Rong picked up the handkerchief and wiped it for her, "In two months, there will be a banquet in the palace. In previous years, you didn't have to attend because of your poor health. This year, your father wants you to meet those brothers."
Wenren Yingluo was really weak before, as if she was about to collapse when she went out. Although it's not too much better now, it's not that exaggerated. In previous years, he could be fooled, but this year he is about to turn six years old, so it can't be justified.
When the bitter taste of the candied fruit in his mouth dissipated, Shen Mubai said, "Will all the nine brothers be present?"
"Naturally." Concubine Rong said with a smile, without thinking too much.
Shen Mubai nodded.
Concubine Rong patted the little princess's head, "When you meet them, you should stop being so naughty, or you will get some impressions, and it won't be very good."
Shen Mubai snorted softly, "What if some of them want to bully me?"
Concubine Rong couldn't help laughing, "Why are they bullying you?"
Shen Mubai murmured, "Maybe."
"If they bully you, just ask father to judge, mother and concubine will also support Luo'er." Concubine Rong's tone was light, without the slightest hint of timidity.
She is deeply favored by the emperor, and her natal family is an important minister in the court, so she naturally has confidence.
Shen Mubai bent his eyes, feeling happy in his heart, except for the medicine jar, this body is simply a winner in life.
The two months were neither long nor short, and passed by in the days when she was recuperating her body.
On the day of the banquet, Concubine Rong asked her to dress up, and then, led by the eunuch, she walked towards the Leyang Palace.
"Concubine Rong, the Ninth Princess is here." The eunuch's high-pitched and thin voice sounded, causing many people in the banquet to look sideways.
Concubine Rong was wearing a peony embroidered dress, which was so plain yet luxurious, and coupled with her overpowering appearance, it was no wonder that she was loved by the emperor. She is holding a girl in her hand. Even at a young age, it is not difficult to see that she will be a rare beauty in the future.
Concubine Rong took Shen Mubai first to salute the Emperor and Empress Dowager.
Compared with the emperor's smiling face and pampering, the empress dowager's attitude was a little colder.
If he didn't know that she was always like this, Shen Mubai almost thought that the other party didn't want to see her.
"Is Luo'er feeling better?" The queen mother asked casually.
Concubine Rong said, "Back to the Empress Dowager, Luo'er has recuperated a lot recently."
The queen mother nodded and said nothing more.
Only then did Concubine Rong take Shen Mubai to her seat.
Her position is only lower than that of the queen, which shows that this favor is not ordinary.
Apart from the concubines and princes from the harem, all the ministers' children came to this banquet.
There was a lot of fun at the banquet, and there were many people who inadvertently explored it.
Shen Mubai noticed that last time the sixth prince was staring at her, and when she saw her looking over, he snorted.
She smiled, then looked away.
