After I transmigrated, the cold king clung to me every day.

Chapter 258 Huaijin's Full Moon Birthday

Hidden behind the artificial hill, Su Wan'er stared intently at Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian not far away, her eyes like an eagle's. Murong Yi's eyes were full of affection as he gently embraced Lin Qianqian's waist, while Lin Qianqian leaned against Murong Yi's shoulder like a little bird. The sight of the two being so loving and affectionate pierced Su Wan'er's eyes.

Su Wan'er's nails dug deep into her palms, her face contorted with anger. She bit her lower lip, her teeth itching with rage, and endless resentment and unwillingness welled up in her heart.

She cursed inwardly, "Why is it that Lin Qianqian gets all the love and attention, while I'm left to be neglected and alone in my empty room, even though we both gave birth to sons?"

Her eyes were filled with hatred, and sweet scenes of her time with Murong Yi kept flashing through her mind. Those vows of eternal love had now shattered like a dream. "Murong Yi, how could you be so cruel? Have all our past affections gone to waste? I, Su Wan'er, will never accept being abandoned by you! Never!"

Just as she was immersed in her pain and resentment, she caught a glimpse of Afu walking towards Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian out of the corner of her eye.

Su Wan'er was startled. Without thinking, she quickly hid in the shadow of the artificial hill again, barely daring to breathe, hoping not to be discovered.

Afu trotted up to Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian, bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the carriages are ready and we can enter the palace at any time."

Lin Qianqian smiled gently, revealing a tender smile, and looked at Murong Yi with affection. Murong Yi returned the smile with deep affection, his eyes full of doting, and then said, "Alright, let's set off now! By the way, where's Wan'er? Go and call her, we'll go to the palace together."

Afu responded with "Yes!" and was just about to turn around and go to the west wing to find Su Wan'er when he saw Su Wan'er gracefully move and appear in front of everyone as if she were passing by unintentionally.

A gentle and charming smile graced her face, but a barely perceptible hint of jealousy flickered in her eyes. She walked gracefully towards them, gave a slight curtsy, and said softly, "This humble servant greets Your Highness and my elder sister!"

Lin Qianqian simply smiled faintly and remained silent, seemingly already accustomed to Su Wan'er's deliberate attempts to please her.

Murong Yi looked at Su Wan'er with gentle eyes and called out, "Wan'er~ You've arrived. Perfect timing! You can take Jincheng with you. Today is Huaijin's one-month birthday. Let's go to the palace together!"

Su Wan'er lowered her eyes, concealing the emotions within them, and obediently replied, "Yes!"

The three of them walked out of the palace together, with Murong Yi leading the way and Lin Qianqian and Su Wan'er following closely behind. When they reached the carriage, Murong Yi first helped Lin Qianqian into the carriage, and then Su Wan'er carried Jin Cheng into the carriage as well.

Once everyone was seated, the carriage slowly started moving, heading towards the palace, its wheels rolling and kicking up dust.

The carriage slowly entered the palace, and the heavy vermilion palace gates closed slowly behind it, shutting out the noise of the outside world.

Upon entering the palace, one sees lanterns and colorful decorations adorning both sides of the palace path, with red silks fluttering in the breeze, creating a festive atmosphere everywhere. The bright palace lanterns illuminate the entire palace path as if it were daytime, and the jade-paved ground shimmers with a warm luster under the lights.

The square in front of the palace was bustling with guests. High-ranking officials and nobles, dressed in their finest attire and adorned with jewels, gathered there, chatting and laughing.

Holding carefully prepared gifts, all priceless treasures, their faces beaming with fawning smiles, they awaited to offer their congratulations to Murong Yi and his wife, as well as Prince Huaijin.

When the crowd saw Murong Yi and the others arrive, they all gathered around, bowed and greeted them with auspicious words of congratulations.

"Congratulations, Your Highness and Your Highness, on the birth of your son! The young prince is surely blessed with good fortune and will undoubtedly achieve great things in the future!"

"May the young prince grow up healthy, intelligent, and have a smooth and carefree life!" Various congratulatory voices rose and fell, never ceasing.

Murong Yi and Lin Qianqian smiled and thanked everyone one by one. Lin Qianqian held Huai Jin in her arms. The little one was exquisitely beautiful and sleeping peacefully. His fair face was even more adorable against the backdrop of the red swaddling clothes.

Everyone craned their necks to look, and praises poured in.

Su Wan'er stood aside, watching the lively scene, her heart filled with mixed feelings. On the surface, she smiled and congratulated along with everyone else, but a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.

She hugged Jincheng tightly in her arms. Jincheng seemed to sense his mother's emotions and shifted uncomfortably.

Su Wan'er patted him gently, but her gaze remained fixed on Huai Jin in Lin Qianqian's arms. She thought to herself, when will her own Jin Cheng also receive such attention from everyone?

The entire palace was immersed in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere, adding endless celebration and splendor to Prince Huaijin's full-month birthday.
