The third day of July was Xie Jingxing's birthday. Everyone in Prince Rui's mansion was busy. It was said that although Xie Jingxing did not like it, Emperor Yong Le would still hold a banquet for Xie Jingxing every year. The more Emperor Yong Le valued Xie Jingxing, the more the officials respected him. The birthday was a day for the officials to curry favor with Xie Jingxing. Early in the morning, the courtyard was already filled with birthday gifts.
Uncle Tang made a name list of people who sent gifts today and showed it to Shen Miao. Although she had been in a conflict with Xie Jingxing these days, Shen Miao was still the princess consort. Shen Miao glanced at it. The list was densely packed with names. Be it high-ranking officials or low-ranking officials, they were all rushing over to curry favor with Xie Jingxing. The Lu and Ye families also sent people to send gifts.
