Zhu Chanyi greeted both of them, and everyone sat down again, quieting the hall for a moment.
With You Xiangrui added to their number, whatever they said couldn't be as casual.
Zhu Chanyi glanced at Tu Jingjia and smiled as she initiated the conversation, "I hear that Prince Jing's new position is about to be assigned. After the new year, there will be plenty to keep busy with. Congratulations in advance to Sister-in-law Jingjia."
Tu Jingjia smiled with pursed lips, "Seventh Sister-in-law jests. I'm not clear on the matter of the new position either, though I did hear the prince mention it in passing. But the outcome will have to wait for the news."
Prince Jing had married Tu Jingjia, and since Consort Qi was quite adept at handling relationships, due to the connection between Tu Jingjia and Su Xinyi, she was usually treated with closeness. Prince Jing had previously maintained neutrality, but after getting married, he gradually became closer to the Eastern Palace.
