Ambitious Favored Consort: How To Become A Wangfei

Chapter 113: Palace Banquet

It was December when Prince Jing and his entourage arrived in Jinling. It didn't take long for them to settle down, and the New Year was finally here.

On New Year's Eve, there was a banquet in the palace, and Tang Shishi, as Princess Jing who has just entered Jinling, must attend. On the thirtieth day, Tang Shishi got up early in the morning, groomed, tied her hair, changed clothes, and got dressed up.

Today is the New Year's Eve banquet so Tang Shishi put on a grand dress. First, she put on a blouse, a blue vertical collar jacket on the outside, narrow sleeves, a light-colored auspicious cloud collar at the neckline, and a red dress underneath. After finishing , she changed into her official garment. It was woven with a phoenix gold pattern on the outside. The waist was secured with a jade band, which immediately showed Tang Shishi's slender waist and figure. After putting on the accessories, the maid brought a red big-sleeved shirt. Tang Shishi stretched her arms and put her arms inside the shirt.

Counting the jewelry on the head, this outfit alone is worth fifty to sixty gold taels.

After Tang Shishi got dressed, she had to walk slowly. When she walked, the skirts were layered on top of each other, but the outermost skirt and jade pendant did not move at all, making her look dignified and solemn.

Zhao Chengjun was playing with Zhao Zigao outside. He turned his head when he heard Tang Shishi's voice, and when he saw Tang Shishi walking slowly, he was taken aback.

After reacting, Zhao Chengjun smiled and said, "Your beautiful."

Zhao Chengjun thought about it and found that it seemed like Tang Shishi was wearing a princess-grade dress for the first time. Before the wedding, she should be dressed up like this as well, but at that time she already had Zhao Zigao in her belly, and her pregnancy was not stable. Everyone was afraid of what would happen to Tang Shishi. Because of this her wedding dress was also simplified.

But today, she is wearing the princess's dress, like a pearl, full of color and brilliance. It was the first time that Zhao Zigao saw such a grand Tang Shishi, and he looked for a while before recognizing that this was his mother. Zhao Zigao attempted to run towards her, wanting her to hug him. (T/N: Zhao Zigao is the cutest child ever)

While she looked pleasing to the eye, Tang Shishi had a hard time. She walked slowly to the crib, looking at Zhao Zigao, but didn't dare hold hom: "It's not easy to bend over now, you  sit and play by yourself. If you put your saliva on me, I don't have time to change."

Zhao Chengjun also wore official prince clothes today. Hearing her words, he asked: "Is it heavy?"

Tang Shishi nodded: "Very heavy. But it doesn't matter, I will get used to it after a while."

Zhao Chengjun had to wear public uniforms, sacrificial uniforms, and other uniforms to attend ceremonies from time to time when he was young. He forgot that Tang Shishi was wearing this kind of clothes for the first time. Zhao Chengjun stretched out his hand to hold her fingers and said, "Don't put all the weight on your waist, or you will have back pain after a while. Use your legs for support instead."

Tang Shishi adjusted his posture according to Zhao Chengjun's instructions. Zhao Zigao lay down on his crib and found his father was helping his mother, their eyes were very focused, as if they had completely forgotten that they still had a son. Zhao Zigao stared at them for a long time and found that his parents ignored him. He was dissatisfied in his heart, so he climbed to the side of the crib, patted the wood under him, and screamed hard.

Tang Shishi turned her head and saw Zhao Zigao lying on the side of the crib, and was shocked. The maids hurriedly stepped forward, carried Zhao Zigao, and smiled: "The little junwang is jealous and needs attention from the Prince and Princess."
