~ FIRST MEETING WITH GRAND PRINCESS YI DE ~

Mu Yunyao nodded in return, “Eunuch Giu is too courteous . Are you in charge of receiving the guests here today?”

“Yes, Eunuch Li had already instructed me to pay more attention to Miss Mu . Today, there are so many people that it’s hard to avoid a collision . This servant will lead you to enter the Palace first . ”

The Second Madam turned around to talk with other ladies . When she looked back, only to see a young eunuch standing next to Mu Yunyao . She was so surprised in her heart . “Yunyao, this is …”

“This is Eunuch who in charge of receiving guests . ”

The Second Madam nodded: “Thank you, I’ll be troubling this Eunuch . ”

“Greetings, Madam . Please come with me . ” Xiao Gui lowered his head and led the way into the Palace .

The Second Madam looked at Mu Yunyao, feeling somewhat curious about her knowing the Palace’s attendant . Although she had talked with other ladies, she had split her attention to a point or two to observe the situation . After all, the surroundings filled with distinguished officials and nobles . She brought people out, so she can’t watch people accidentally happen, and she heard the words of the young eunuch just now .

Mu Yunyao slightly smiled but didn’t plan on explaining . They followed the young eunuch into the Palace .

Because of the return of the Grand Princess of Yide, the Mid Autumn Palace Banquet was set up in the main hall of Supreme Harmony Hall . There are open spaces in and in front of the hall, which can accommodate officials and family members who come to attend the Palace Banquet . There are two gardens at the back, which can be used for play and enjoy the scenery .

At this moment, there were already quite some people in the hall . Officials were arranged to be on one side, while the female relatives were settled on the other side according to their status .

After the Second Madam had taken her seat, the lady in the next her immediately turned her head and asked, “Lady Qi, why didn’t I see You’er?”

“Madame Zhao is very polite . You’er health is not good, and she fell ill a few days ago . That’s why I didn’t bring her here . ”

Mu Yunyao sized up Madame Zhao . If she remembered correctly, the person in front of her was Zhang Wan’s stepmother, the Grand Scholar Zhang Zhong’s successor .

Madam Zhao looked at Su Yaxian and the others with a gentle smile on her face, “It’s surprisingly rare that Yaxian is so outstanding these days . “

Su Yaxian lowered her head in embarrassment: “Thank you for your praise, Madam . ”

Madam Zhao praised Su Yajian and Su Yaling once again before shifting her gaze to Mu Yunyao . “I presume this is Miss Mu, whose name is renowned throughout the Capital . ”

“Greetings, Madam Zhao . ” Mu Yunyao slightly smiled as she greeted her .

“Miss Mu need not be so courteous . She is really stunning and difficult for an ordinary person to reach her . ”

Mu Yunyao looked at Zhang Wan, who stood behind Madam Zhao, the corners of her lips curving into a smile . “Miss Zhang’s entire body of poetry and spirituality is the most desirable part . If I could even compare to Sister Zhang, then that would be great . ”

Zhang Wan didn’t expect Mu Yunyao to talk to her, and after a moment, she finally reacted . “Little Sister Mu, what are you talked? According to father’s words, I’ve gone silly from reading . ”

“Elder Sister Zhang is full of poetic and scholarly spirit . I’ve heard of your talent . If you were a man, you might be able to become a top scholar . In the future, I might have to ask for more advice from you . ” Mu Yunyao’s gaze was pure, and her smile was sincere, unknowingly causing others to get closer to her .

Madam Zhao laughed . “I never thought that Wan’er would have such a good relationship with Miss Mu . ”

“Elder Sister Zhang Wan has a gentle and quiet personality . When I saw her, I couldn’t help but get closer to her unconsciously, which makes Madam Zhao laugh . ” Mu Yunyao sized up Madam Zhao, her thoughts turning slightly . After the death of Zhang Zhong’s wife, only Zhang Wan was left as the legitimate daughter . In order to prevent Zhang Wan from being mistreated by her stepmother, he married his wife’s cousin .

According to the rumors outside, this Madam Zhao treated Zhang Wan like her own daughter, just that the rules were quite strict . Later, Zhang Wan was forced to go back with Su Qingwu and commit suicide . Those strict rules of etiquette and rules often played a role in it .

The last time she saw this Zhang Wan, she had a pretty good impression of her . If she could raise a few points and save a life, it could be considered a good deed . Zhang Wan’s temperament was gentle . Hearing Mu Yunyao’s words, she was a little happy in her heart . “Miss Mu has just come to the Capital . We’ll have to keep in touch often from now on . ” As the sound of her voice faded, she suddenly thought of Su Qingwu . A shyness flashed past her eyes, and her cheeks unconsciously flushed red . When she married into the Su family, they will see each other from time to time .

Mu Yunyao’s eyes couldn’t help but darken when she saw her expression . ‘Su Qingwu is a scholar known throughout the Capital . It was no wonder that she could be moved . It was just because of this feeling that she ended up losing her life . It’s not worth it .

Without saying a word, people have arrived gradually . There were a lot of people who came to the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet this time . Logically speaking, the main hall should have been a bit noisy, but in reality, it was the exact opposite . With so many people present, the place seemed especially quiet, and there were only occasional whispers rang out, especially near Su Yuyi . The quietness was a little over the top .

Mu Yunyao’s figure sat upright on the spot, her eyes unconsciously looking at Su Yuyi’s body . The Eldest Madam and Su Yuyi were arranged to be at the very front of the group . Su Yuyi was wearing a long dress with flowing flowers and dark clouds . Her dress was flowing with light and was as elegant as the moonlight . She was sitting at the back of the table with a candle flame shining on the side, which was made her face as beautiful as a fairy more and more crystal clear .

*There is a young lady in the north, beautiful and intelligent, unparalleled in the world . A glance at the entire city will be overwhelming, and another glance at the country will overturn it . . .

Mu Yunyao indifferently withdrew her gaze, the smile on her lips unconsciously deepening .

A voice rang out from outside . “The Emperor has arrived . Grand Princess Yi De has arrived!”

“Greetings, Your Majesty … Greetings, Grand Princess Yi De . ”

Mu Yunyao followed everyone’s salutations . From the corner of her eyes, she only saw a corner of a palace dress slowly gliding past in front of them . The phoenix pattern embroidered on the corner of the dress was very lifelike . Just a single glance couldn’t help being amazing .

“All of you, rise . ” Due to Grand Princess Yi De’s presence, the Emperor was clearly in an astonishingly good mood . As he spoke, he revealed a rare smile and said, “This day is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Grand Princess is returning to the Capital . I am so happy, so I hold a banquet with you to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the day and night . You don’t have to be too polite . All of you merely take it as an ordinary feast . ”

“Thank you, Your Majesty . ”

When the ceremony was over, Mu Yunyao raised her head and looked at Grand Princess Yi De, who sat next to the Emperor . She had heard of the legend of the Grand Princess countless times . In the entire Dali dynasty, no woman didn’t take the Grand Princess as a role model .

The Grand Princess Yi De has a dignified and elegant appearance with faint traces of old age . She was clad in the clothing of the Phoenix Pattern Palace . She also did not have many extravagant adornments on her body . She only used a few golden hairpins to tie up her hair meticulously . A pair of Phoenix eyes are soft and indifferent . It seems that she is absolutely calm after being washed away, but she can thoroughly understand people’s hearts .

Grand Princess Yi De looked down indifferently . Mu Yunyao seemed to be able to hear the gasps of the young ladies within the hall . They were doing their best to appear dignified and gentle . Even their smiles seemed to be calculated, not one bit less .
