Chapter 358: Does the Princess Consort Also Think I’m Rebelling Against the Norms?
Su Kai and Lady Yao came to Prince Ling’s Mansion to express their gratitude.
What happened between the two, only they themselves knew; it was not to be discussed with outsiders.
But the way Heir Su cherished Lady Yao showed that he didn’t blame her for faking her death and leaving. On the contrary, he valued her like a treasure all the more for having regained what he had lost.
He was incredibly careful with the child too, holding him constantly, even though a wet nurse had been hired. When the baby cried, it was he who soothed him.
Lady Yao seemed to have come to terms with her situation, her demeanor much more open and natural, as if an invisible shackle had been unlocked from them both.
Before they left, Murong Jiu had people send over items like persimmon and corn from the Glazed Pavilion, and also said that if Lady Yao was free, she could bring the child to the Prince Mansion.
Their three children were close in age, and would be able to play together as they grew a little bigger.
It was unexpected that, just after sending the two of them off, a visiting card was sent from the residence of the Minister of Dali Temple, Sikong Fu, Lord Sikong.
It turned out to be a visiting card from Miss Sikong, who wished to visit the Prince Mansion.
Considering that Miss Sikong was engaged to Lou Zixi, and Lou Zixi had a quite evident relationship with Prince Ling’s Mansion, Murong Jiu replied to Miss Sikong’s card, inviting her to the Prince Mansion to appreciate the peonies.
