Chapter 17 Palace Banquet

Time passed quickly and Mid-Autumn Festival came in a blink of an eye. Ye Jinghong brought clothes that day.

Lin Mimi put on her clothes, and Qiuju Dongzhi did her makeup, drew her eyebrows, and put on lip balm.

Lin Mimi went to the palace with her mother and father to attend the dinner. The carriage got off the carriage when it reached the palace gate.

In the quiet night, music can be heard from afar. The towering palace walls seem even more majestic under the night. Thousands of bright lights illuminate the entire palace wall, making it as bright as day. The palace maids hold lanterns and walk lightly along the palace road. People are attracted by the beautiful night view and enjoy this fairyland-like night.

The male and female relatives walked separately. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival was held in the Imperial Garden, with high screens on both sides blocking the way and leaving space in the middle.

The emperor and empress sat in the highest seats and could see everyone clearly.

At this time, the emperor and the empress had not arrived yet, and there were some snacks and some light wine on the table.

The officials and their families were in great joy and congratulated each other.

Lin Mimi was with Ye Jinghong in the women's area. The ladies that Ye Jinghong was on good terms with were gathered together, chatting about family matters.

"This is Mimi! I haven't seen you for a few years and you've grown so big!"

"She's getting more and more beautiful!"

"I held you in my arms when you were a kid!"

"Now her body looks rosier than when she was little!"

Everyone greeted each other politely, and Lin Mimi smiled politely yet awkwardly.

"My aunts are still beautiful."

"Look at this sweet little mouth!" Which woman doesn't like to hear nice things?

Take advantage!

At this time, Ye Jinghong said, "The banquet is about to begin, let's sit down!"

"The Emperor has arrived! The Empress has arrived!" The eunuch's shrill voice sounded like a saw.

Everyone stood up and saluted.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Empress!"

"Everyone, please stand up. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival! There is no need to be bound by etiquette. Just treat it as an ordinary family dinner." Everyone slowly raised their heads.

Lin Mimi only saw the middle-aged man at the highest point. He was wearing a bright yellow robe embroidered with a pattern of a soaring dragon in the sea. Under the surging golden waves at the corners of his robe, his sleeves were blown high by the wind. He had the majesty of a god, and his whole body gave off an aura of a king that shocked the world.

"Please take a seat, everyone!" Seeing the emperor and empress sit down, everyone else sat down one by one.

Then, long palace music sounded, and a group of girls in colorful clothes approached quickly with light steps. The dancers made slight sounds as they stepped on the bluestone floor.

The graceful dance and the clinking of wine glasses.

Lin Mimi ate snacks and watched the dance with her eyes squinted.

"Your Majesty, it's the same programs every year. I'm tired of them." One of the concubines said softly.

Lin Mimi looked up and saw the most favored Concubine Xiang. Lin Mimi had seen her before, but she was not a concubine at that time.

“Oh... What does the imperial concubine mean...?” the emperor asked.

"I think it would be better if each family could think of a talent, so that today's Mid-Autumn Festival won't be wasted." Concubine Xiang's voice was as soft as boneless.

"Then let's do as the imperial concubine says! Those who perform outstandingly will be rewarded!" The emperor looked at the imperial concubine and said.

When everyone heard that there was a reward, they were eager to try.

"In that case, then I will dare to give it a try!" said Xu Shuangshuang, who came out from the Anguo Mansion in tight clothes.

Lin Mimi knew her. This girl didn't like to play with literature, but was best at wielding swords and guns. She wielded the Broken Cloud Spear to perfection.

"I am a humble servant, but I would like to show off my Cloud Breaking Spear here!"

"Accurate!" Then he signaled the eunuch to bring a gun.

Xu Shuangshuang took the spear, and her aura suddenly changed. The ordinary spear in her hand glowed coldly, and she was agile and her moves were unpredictable. The moves she performed did not see blood, but each shot was powerful and heart-pounding.

After Xu Shuangshuang finished dancing with the gun, sweat broke out on her forehead and she raised her hand to bow.

"Good! The granddaughter of Duke Anguo is truly as capable as any man! She deserves a reward!" The first one to appear is always different.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xu Shuangshuang returned to her seat happily.

The noble ladies in the capital all wanted the emperor's reward, and they all lined up to perform.

Firstly, it was a reward, which meant that the emperor had taken a liking to her. Secondly, it was also to gain the greatest value for one's future marriage.

Lin Mimi actually wanted to go too. Now that she is back in the capital, she will definitely interact more with other people in the capital and build her own network of relationships.

But I am not proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so I am just trying to make fun of you!

Lin Mimi previously studied preschool education, and she is a typical student who knows a little bit of everything but is not proficient in anything.

I can play the piano a little, I can play Gobang a little, I can write a little, I can draw a little...

"Master, performing your talent will earn you 30 charm points + a dropped gift pack!" 001's voice sounded in his mind again.

"Your system is indeed a bit too broad," Lin Mimi said speechlessly.

"Since there is a reward, I'll just give it a try!" Lin Mimi took the risk.

"What kind of talent should I perform? Breaking rocks with my chest? That's not appropriate. I'm a delicate and beautiful lady." Lin Mimi imagined the scene of breaking rocks and found it a little funny.

Why not sing? Just search for a modern music and you will instantly find all the current music.

Then she asked Dongzhi to help her register.

Then the eunuch called out the names one by one, and when he called out Lin Mimi from the Marquis Mansion, he looked at her.

He remembered that Xiaoyaohou Mansion had taken leave in the past few years and had not participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace, but this year was different.

"Oh! The Marquis is here today too, how rare! Hahaha," the emperor said with a smile.

"I remember your little girl always followed you at the palace banquets. Now she has grown up! Not bad, not bad!"

It was Lin Mimi's turn only after the noble ladies in front of her finished their performances.

Lin Mimi was a little nervous at this time. After all, there were so many people, no less than the annual meeting during the Chinese New Year.

"Your servant Lin Mimi pays homage to the emperor!" Lin Mimi stepped out from her seat and bowed.

"No need to be so polite!" the emperor looked at her and said.

"I adapted a poem today! It is called "Water Melody*When Will the Bright Moon Appear"!" Lin Mimi was no longer nervous at this time.

Lin Mimi cleared her throat and began to sing: "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the sky. I wonder what year it is in the palace in heaven tonight?"

"I want to go back by the wind, but I'm afraid that Qionglou Yuyu will be too cold on the heights. Dance to find out the shadows, so it seems to be in the world."

"Turning around the red pavilion, lowering the beautiful window, shining on the sleepless. There should be no hatred, why does the moon always appear when we are parting?"

"People have sorrows and joys, and the moon is cloudy and clear. This matter is hard to come by in ancient times."

"Nung, moon and new moon!"

When Lin Mimi sang the song for the second time, someone next to her started playing the flute!

When I looked up, it was the man who sat opposite the Northern Prince in the teahouse that day.

Suppress the shock in your heart and continue singing!

Lin Mimi's singing voice is melodious and pleasant, with a hint of purity in her tenderness. At first listen, it sounds like the sound of a yellow oriole flying out of a valley, a kite crying, or a phoenix singing, clear and loud, yet gentle and soft.
