Empress Yu, however, still maintained an appropriate smile on her face as she said, "Princess need not thank me. What the Emperor is most concerned about is Prince Changyi. With no children under his knees, the Emperor has always been worried. This concubine simply wanted to ease the Emperor's mind."
How nice that sounded.
An Jingxin snorted coldly in her heart, glanced at the playing children, then smiled and said, "Are all of those children's parents willing to let them be adopted by me and my husband?"
Empress Yu replied, "Prince Changyi has made great achievements. It is their honor to have their children adopted by the Prince and Princess. Naturally, they are all willing."
An Jing said, "Then I must trouble Madam Yu Fei to bring those children over for my husband and me to see."
Upon hearing this, Empress Yu thought the matter was halfway successful and was overjoyed. She hurriedly had the noble ladies bring their children over for An Jing and Xiao Changyi to look at.
