Chapter 391 Hatred
The full moon celebration for Xiaoyuer was held in a very grand manner. This was the first child of the Lu family's grandchildren, and also the child born after the Regent Prince and Huainan formed a marriage alliance. He was granted the title of Crown Prince as soon as he was born. At the same time, Dayuan was expanding its territory and Xilin was brought under its control. The birth of this child can be said to be a perfect combination of timing, location, and people. The Lu family attached great importance to it, the court attached great importance to it, and Huainan also attached great importance to it.

The imperial court and Huainan were still arguing about the distribution of Xilin's benefits, but that didn't stop them from celebrating Xiaoyuer's birthday together. Xiaoyuer's full moon banquet had been planned since Lu Jing returned to the capital, and invited high-ranking clans and officials from Huainan. The several groups of people had been arguing fiercely at the grand court meeting the day before, but when they celebrated Xiaoyuer's birthday at the Prince's Mansion, they all had smiles on their faces, emphasizing harmony and making money. No one dared to cause trouble at Xiaoyuer's full moon banquet.

The eldest princess also represented the young emperor at the palace to celebrate, personally presiding over the full-month ceremony. The birth of a new life is always a joyous and hopeful occasion. The wet nurse carried the little fish around among the guests, making a brief appearance before taking him back to rest. Lu Jing and Su Qingwan thanked the guests, and everyone was very perceptive, avoiding any mention of the court's strife and mostly chatting about everyday matters.

Su Qingwan greeted the female relatives. The two sisters, Lu Yunyan and Lu Yunshu, were both pregnant, less than three months along, and neither had mentioned it. Su Qingwan instructed her maids to pay attention to their diet and take good care of them. Almost the entire Lu family was present, except for Lu Feng and Madam Ding. Even though Madam Lin was still unwilling, she dared not cause trouble now. Whenever the Prince's mansion held a banquet, Lu Feng and Madam Ding would not attend to avoid gossip.

With Prince Lu Jing's position as regent secure and the situation in Huainan so stable, no one dared to gossip. Lin Shi had also become more obedient. She was already clever and now she knew how to be pragmatic, trying her best to maintain a good relationship with Su Qingwan. In fact, she didn't need to keep trying to please Su Qingwan. As long as Zhang Shi had a good relationship with her, the future of the Lu family's children would not be bad.

Zhang is not an ungrateful person. She raised her children on her own, and it is true that she relied on the eldest son's family. It is impossible for Lu Jing to forget the eldest son's family now that he has risen to prominence. Otherwise, others would gossip about her behind her back. This is why Zhang has not moved out of the Lu family yet. She and her daughter still live in the Lu family mansion.

Su Qingwan and Lin Shi sat at the same table, which was a matter of etiquette. After all, the Lu family were Lu Jing's direct relatives, and the relationship was there, so she did not show any coldness.

She had come to terms with it. She wasn't the type to forgive and forget, nor could she reconcile with the Lin family. So she decided to pretend the Lin family didn't exist and have less contact with them and Lu Feng. Perhaps she had once harbored murderous intentions towards Lu Feng, but after having Xiao Yu'er, she could understand Lu Jing's difficulties. If she continued to hate Lu Feng, Lu Jing would also find it difficult to be in the middle.

No need!

If my sister is watching from heaven, I hope she won't blame me.

Now she only hopes that Xiaoyuer can grow up safely and that Nianqing can successfully establish himself in Huainan. She can put everything else aside. If she continues to be immersed in hatred, she will not be happy, and neither will the people around her.

Her greatest goal in life was to exonerate Huainan, and now she has achieved it. Huainan has been exonerated, and her bloodline has been restored. She has accomplished what she sought in her life.

For the rest of her life, she should let go of her hatred and live a good life.

With Lu Jing and Xiao Yu'er by her side, and Nian Qing guarding Huainan, she had no regrets. This was a wonderful life she had never imagined before going to the capital. She never thought she could live such a peaceful and warm life.
