was born and no one knew if she was dead or alive now.

Long Xuan returned home and, after informing his mother of his situation, he left the imperial capital with a few men without even stopping to rest.

The next month passed by very quickly; the little prince and princess were soon a month old.

Long Yang was not in the mood to throw a big party for both of them, but he was worried Lu Liangwei would suspect something if he did so.
In the end, he decided to have a full moon banquet.
He invited his court officials to the celebration.

The banquet was held at Jade Dew Hall.

It was still early and Lu Liangwei dismissed the servants while the two children were still sleeping.
She changed into a set of formal palace clothes in the bedchamber.

As the occasion was a palace banquet, she picked out a red dress.
She looked into the mirror and carefully started putting on her makeup.

She was already beautiful without makeup on, and she looked even more ravishing with a slight touch of cosmetics.

Even though she had just given birth, her body shape was recovering very well.
She was only slightly more voluptuous than before.

Lu Liangwei was not used to her appearance in the mirror.
The child-like look on her face was gone and she now looked much more mature.

She was now a mother, after all, and there was no comparing to before.

The pink tinge in her cheeks had returned after recuperating for a month and her face was fuller.
With the color back in her cheeks, she looked very healthy.

Lu Liangwei patted her face with satisfaction.

Right then, a loud bang was heard from the direction of the windows despite them being shut tight.

The windows faced a garden.
None of the servants dared to stay there on normal days because Lu Liangwei needed rest and they did not want to disturb her peace and quiet.

In addition to that, she could not be exposed to the wind during her confinement period and Zhu Yu made sure the windows were locked properly from the inside.
She would occasionally open the windows for ventilation, but even then, someone would be guarding it.

As such, the sound came as a great shock to her.
No servant in Grand Phoenix Palace would be brave enough to knock on her window and disturb her rest.

Lu Liangwei frowned.
She looked toward the window, but there was no longer any noise, and she began to think that she might have imagined it.

However, within seconds another bang came from the windows.

As the two children were sleeping, none of the servants were in the bedchamber at the moment.
