Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After some investigation, Ji Zhao was certain that she was Princess Kang Le’s daughter.

For a moment, everyone in the capital was discussing this strange news.

Most of them were touched by Princess Kang Le’s persistent spirit of searching for her daughter! They congratulated Princess Kang Le from the bottom of their hearts!

Of course, there were also a small number of people who were suspicious and suspected that the daughter of Princess Kang Le was an imposter. They were waiting to watch a good show.

In the Grand Princess Imperial’s residence.

Ji Zhao’s new snowflake pastry and sesame seaweed roll received unanimous praise from the Grand Princess Imperial and Princess Kang Le.

“Ever since Zhaozhao returned, my mouth has become more and more picky!” The Grand Princess Imperial, who was more than fifty years old, had a kind expression and an extremely kind smile. The way she looked at Ji Zhao was also filled with love. “Zhaozhao’s culinary skills are even more exquisite than the imperial chef’s.”

“Grandmother, don’t praise me anymore.” Ji Zhao waved her hand repeatedly. “If you continue to praise me, my tail will soar into the sky!”

The three generations of the family laughed exceptionally happily, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

“Speaking of which, now that we’ve found Zhaozhao, it’s time to hold a banquet to introduce Zhaozhao and meet these young ladies from noble families in the capital,” The Grand Princess Imperial suddenly suggested, “Kang Le, what do you think?”

“What do you think, Zhaozhao?” Princess Kang Le gave Ji Zhao the greatest respect. “Does Zhaozhao want to hold a banquet?”

Ji Zhao thought about it seriously, then shook her head. “Now is not the best time.”

The current situation in the capital city changed rapidly.

She did not want to push the Grand Princess Imperial’s Residence to the center of attention at this time.

“Grandmother, Mother, I understand your intentions, but now is really not the best time.” Ji Zhao analyzed calmly. “Not to mention that I grew up in the countryside since I was young, even if those noble families in the capital respect me on the surface, they probably look down on me behind my back Then why should I hold a banquet and become the topic of discussion for those people?”

“You’re my daughter. Who dares to talk about you behind your back?” Kang Le frowned and said in a deep voice.

“Mother, calm down.” Ji Zhao quickly coaxed her. “This is just one of the points. Now that my body is getting heavier and heavier, I don’t want to tire myself out. More importantly, I’m waiting for Shen Yao.”

“Wait for Shen Yao? Wait for him to do what?” Princess Kang Le was a little confused. “Are you waiting for him to get ranked?”

“You could say that.” Ji Zhao smiled and nodded. “But that’s not all.”

She had her pride. Her husband would become the iron-faced Grand Secretary of the Great Jing Dynasty in the future!

Then there was no need for her to make friends with so-called influential people. After all, no one could predict the future!

More importantly, she wanted to appear in front of those meritorious officials with the identity of Ji Zhao.

She wanted to be known as the richest woman in Great Jing, not the daughter of Princess Kang Le, and not the Madam of the Grand Secretary.

“Zhaozhao’s personality is like yours.” The Grand Princess Imperial could not help but laugh. “Both of you are the same. Both of you are stubborn!”

“Ahem, Grandmother, then who does Mother take after?” Ji Zhao deliberately teased.

For a moment, the three of them laughed even more heartily.

In the sunny March, Ji Zhao gradually got used to life in the princess’s manor.

Both the Grand Princess Imperial and Princess Kang Le doted on her.

It could be said that if they held her in their hands, they fear dropping her; if they kept her in their mouths, they fear she will dissolve.

Other than these two people, there was also Shen Yao.

Jade Garden was the most exquisite courtyard in the entire Grand Princess’s residence.

Ji Zhao and her husband were now living in Jade Garden.

Shen Yao cut the peeled apple and brought it to her.

“It’s so sweet.” After tasting a piece of apple, Ji Zhao smiled sweetly. “Thank you, husband. You’re amazing!”

Shen Yao did not say anything. Instead, he leaned his cheek close to her.

Ji Zhao smiled and quickly kissed his cheek, blushing shyly.

“In a few days, you’ll be going to the venue for the exam. Are you nervous?” Ji Zhao poked another apple and handed it to him with a smile.

“It’s not that bad.”

Although he was a little nervous, it was still manageable.

“Husband, I think highly of you!” Ji Zhao leaned close to his ear and smiled mischievously.

“Zhaozhao.” Shen Yao suddenly held her hand and pulled her into his arms. His tone was serious and serious. “Actually, I’ve thought about it. It doesn’t matter even if I fail. Either way, Zhaozhao won’t despise me, right?”

“That might not be the case.”

Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows slightly and deliberately said, “Mother said that there are also many handsome young men in the capital…”

Hiss-

Before she could finish her sentence, Shen Yao had already bitten her lips.

“I was wrong-” Ji Zhao immediately admitted defeat.

“I’ll do my best.” Shen Yao held her face with both hands and said firmly, “Don’t worry.”

Ji Zhao nodded obediently.

Although Emperor Jingyuan’s condition did not improve, the Spring Quarter Examinations still proceeded in an orderly manner.

In addition, the official presiding over the Spring Quarter Examinations was the upright and virtuous Prince Xian, so the Spring Quarter Examinations went very smoothly.

Shen Yao also stood out from the crowd and got first place.

Mid-March, when the peach trees are young and tender, their blossoms brilliant and dazzling.

The peach orchard planted in Jade Garden bloomed with bright and enchanting peach blossoms.

The situation in the capital changed again.

Emperor Jingyuan’s condition had improved.

The second prince of the Empress was appointed as the Crown Prince;

However, the First Prince, who was under Consort Shu, and the Third Prince, who was under Noble Consort Sun’s, were not very satisfied with this result.

After all, the Crown Prince’s aptitude was too mediocre.

A storm was brewing, and the sky above the capital seemed to be covered by a dark cloud. It was so dreary that it was difficult to breathe.

Time passed unhurriedly until the Dragon Boat Festival. Emperor Jingyuan’s condition worsened again, and Shen Yao, who had already joined the Hanlin Academy, became even busier.

Ji Zhao originally thought that they could stay out of it until the empress suddenly issued an imperial decree, ordering her to enter the palace.

“Mother will go with you?” Princess Kang Le looked at her distracted appearance and hurriedly asked, “Zhaozhao, don’t scare Mother.”

“Mother, I’m fine.” Ji Zhao smiled and shook her head. “The empress summoned me probably for Shen Yao.”

Three days ago, Ji Zhao dreamt again.

She knew very well that the empress’s invitation was an ambush, but she had no right to say no.

Fortunately, she had already seized the initiative. When the time came, she would just counter every move.

Just in case, she specially wrote a letter and got someone to deliver it to Shen Yao, who was working at the Hanlin Academy.

This was the first time Ji Zhao had stepped into the Great Jing Imperial Palace. She had originally thought that she would be panicking, but she did not expect her mood to be so calm.

Feng Luan Hall.

The majestic and magnificent Empress, who was dressed in a phoenix robe, sat in the high hall and looked down at Ji Zhao, who was curtsying below. She said indifferently, “Rise.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Ji Zhao obediently thanked her. Then, she stood rooted to the ground like a log.

“Do you know why I summoned you to the palace?” The Empress suddenly smiled. “Speaking of which, Lord Shen is a lucky person. Not only did he obtain your favor, but he also caught Su Miao’s eye. Su Miao wants to marry Lord Shen. She is willing to share the position of main wife with you. What do you think?”

“May 1 ask who Su Miao is?” Ji Zhao looked up in confusion, her tone filled with confusion..
