Chapter 423: Innate Nature
As an outsider male, Gucheng couldn’t casually enter the Harem.
He handed the wheelchair to Huang Ying and hid himself.
Not really disappearing, but hiding his traces.
Jiang Ning knew that if she was in danger, he would appear in time.
Gucheng was a person accustomed to living in darkness.
Hiding would make him feel more at ease.
Two wet nurses, holding the children with Huang Ying pushing the wheelchair, arrived at the gates of Splendid Palace, and Jiang Ning stood up.
She carried the food box and walked into the gate with light steps.
The servants of Splendid Palace were shocked to see her walking in.
They were simply startled.
“Is that the Princess Consort of Yu?”
“Who else could it be with such a stunning appearance like her?”
“Am I blind?”
“Can someone pinch me? I must be dreaming.”
The Palace Attendants and Eunuchs whispered to each other.
Jiang Ning stopped and waved to them: “Today’s weather is really good.”
Everyone:”…”
It was not a dream.
It was really her.
Her legs…
Everyone’s gaze focused on her legs.
Her steps were light, and her pace was steady.
There was no difference from a normal person.
Her legs had actually healed.
As the only legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, she possessed an astonishing beauty that ordinary people could not reach. The only thing people criticized as not matching the Prince of Yu was her disability in her legs.
Now she had completely recovered.
Who else could say she did not match the Prince of Yu?
The servants of the Splendid Palace couldn’t help being both surprised and delighted.
After all, the Princess Consort of Yu’s good fortune would also benefit the Splendid Palace, since Prince of Yu was Concubine Jin’s own son.
Jiang Ning entered Concubine Jin’s bedroom and unexpectedly saw her not lying down eating melon seeds, but sitting upright in front of a zither, frowning at a zither score.
With the warm weather, she was wrapped in a silk dress, her sleeves rolled up, revealing a string of gold bracelets on her white wrist, making her skin even more fair like the moon, round and smooth, bright and attractive.
She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Ning: “What did you bring?”
“I brought two little darlings.”
The wet nurses walked in with the children.
“They are so big now, but you’re still holding them.” Concubine Jin glanced at them with a flat expression, without the excitement and joy an ordinary grandmother would have when seeing her grandchildren.
Jiang Ning was not surprised by this.
Even for her only son, she didn’t show much affection, let alone the grandchildren with a generation gap.
The wet nurses quickly put the children down.
Wenzan and Lingzi hadn’t seen their royal grandmother much. They only thought the room smelled nice and looked pretty, so they wobbled around, touching and playing with things.
Soon, there was a crash.
Lingzi broke a vase.
The wet nurse hurriedly followed.
Outside, the Palace Attendants also came in.
Anything Concubine Jin kept in her room must have been cherished.
Jiang Ning thought Concubine Jin would be angry, but she didn’t even raise her eyelids or look that way.
The Palace Attendants knelt down and silently cleaned up the broken pieces, then quietly retreated.
It was as if nothing had happened.
“Your Highness, I’m sorry, the children are too naughty.” Jiang Ning apologized for the two children, “I will compensate for the vase…”
“No need.” Concubine Jin put down the zither score and stood up, “These things, in my eyes, are no different from the flowers and plants outside. Speaking of breaking things, the Prince of Yu broke countless things when he was a child, and he was much naughtier than these two.”
Jiang Ning smiled, “So, the Prince of Yu was also mischievous when he was little.”
“Which child isn’t naughty? It’s just their nature.”
Concubine Jin looked at the food box in her hand and asked again, “What did you bring?”
Jiang Ning said, “As I thought, you’re more interested in the food, not the children..”
