Chapter 303

~ THE PEOPLE OF JINGLING CITY HAVE DONE WELL ~

Mu Yunyao got up and returned to her seat, still felt a lingering fear . She wanted to play tricks in front of the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De, making her feel like there was nothing she could hide . Fortunately, she didn’t have any bad intentions and wanted to do some things for the people . Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to hold it up .

Just at this moment, an internal servant came into the Palace and reported, “Report back to the Emperor, the whole people of Jingling City have sent a gift . It’s already at the gate of the Palace . ”

The Emperor paused for a moment before a smile appeared on his face . “Are you saying that the entire city of Jingling City has also given me a gift?”

“Yes, the official in charge of escorting the gift said so . ”

“Alright, quickly bring the gift over . I want to have a good look at it . ”

Soon, the guards brought up the present from Jingling City . There were two kinds of gifts . The first one is the grains placed in the rising bucket, piled up full, especially the rice ears, looking heavy and yellow, and the appearance is particularly delightful .

The other item was the Myriad Citizens Umbrella . The umbrella’s canopy is enormous, and many silk strips are hanging on the edge, which is carefully signed . Although the appearance is not gorgeous, it had an excellent meaning to it .

A smile flashed in the eyes of the Grand Princess Yi De, and she couldn’t help but stand up to congratulate the Emperor . “The Emperor is benevolent and loves the people . The people are also sincere in giving their blessing back to the Emperor . The people return to their hearts as they struggle with the grain . It’s really enough to be a good talk . ”

“Good!” The Emperor got up and walked down from the throne, picked up a rice ear, and carefully measured it in his hand . “I was really moved by the people’s hearts . I will carefully place the Myriad Citizens Umbrella in the Treasure House . These five grains were sent to the kitchen and made into food . I want to taste them myself . ”

Everyone in the great hall hurriedly got up and kowtowed . “Your Majesty is benevolent and loves the people, long live, long live, long live!”

“Stand up . ” The Emperor was so happy . For the past six months, there had been a lot of things happening in the Imperial Court . There had been a few natural disasters of various sizes . The only exception was Jingling City . Although they finally calmed down, he felt very heavy . During the past year, any news of Jingling city must be good . Today, the people of Jingling City once again sent out a gift because of their grat.i.tude . It’s really made him pleasantly surprised .

Mu Yunyao quietly lowered her eyes as a faint smile flashed in her heart . She didn’t know if this was Li Munian’s idea or Steward Qin had interfered, but it was still a good thing for her . After all, Jingling City is the foundation of Ni Yun Fang . The better the development of Jingling City is, the greater the influence will be . As time pa.s.sed, Ni Yun Fang became more and more stable .

The Emperor was pleasantly surprised, and he couldn’t help but think of Mu Yunyao . It was said that there was such a change in Jingling City, Mu Yunyao would definitely have exceedingly contributed to it . Before this, he had never thought that someone would have such an extraordinary influence on a city . If he had a few more people like Mu Yunyao, he would definitely be able to save a lot of thought .

“Mu Yunyao?”

Hearing the Emperor speak again, Mu Yunyao hurriedly stood up and bowed . “This humble daughter is here . ”

“Your embroidery skills are quite good . The Autumn Hunting is just around the corner, so why don’t you go with us and draw a picture of Autumn Hunting? How about you embroider it into a screen?”

Mu Yunyao hurriedly bowed to show her grat.i.tude, “Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty . This humble daughter will definitely do her best . ”

“Very well . If the embroidery is not good, I will punish you . ”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but raise her head and smile as she said, “This humble one’s talent is shallow . I’m confident in my embroidery skills, but I’m not good at painting . How about asking the Emperor to make a picture of Autumn Hunting, and this humble daughter will embroider according to your picture?”

When the Emperor heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh . “If I were to draw autumn hunting pictures myself, no matter how much you’ve embroidered it, I’m afraid no one would dare say anything bad about it . ”

Grand Princess Yi De couldn’t help but think of Laba porridge in Jingling City she had sent to her, smiling as she said, “Others may not dare to say, but I am not afraid . At that time, how about I give you my evaluation?” No matter what her intentions were, she was willing to promote those who could do things for the people, which could be considered an example to others .

The Emperor was even happier now . “Of course, it’s good . No one else is more qualified than Royal Eldest Sister . ”

The atmosphere in the hall was even more pa.s.sionate than before . After Mu Yunyao had returned to her seat, the gazes on her gradually increased .

The Second Madam was holding a teacup on one side to hide her smile . The Eldest Madam and Su Yuyi’s expressions were so interesting . This time, Su Yuyi could practically soar into the sky, but it was a pity that Mu Yunyao gave birth to trouble for her .

Su Yuyi was indeed astonishingly beautiful . If she were an ordinary person, then the Eldest Madam’s scheme would have succeeded . Unfortunately, the ones they wanted to curry favor with were the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De . Were these two ordinary people? It’s really inferior to show your beauty in front of these two people . On the contrary, Mu Yunyao won a lifetime of good reputation with ten thousand taels of silver . It really can’t be worth any more .

In the following time, a few young ladies from aristocratic families stepped forward to perform their talents . However, due to Su Yuyi’s stunning performance before, everyone felt that it was a bit unimpressive in comparison .

While the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De had gone down to change clothes and rest, the officials were free to enjoy themselves in the main hall . Young ladies and madams can go outside and enjoy the gardens view on the left and right sides . After all, the banquet would continue all the way until the evening . It was hard to avoid being bored just by sitting in the great hall .

Zhang Wan and Mu Yunyao had a pleasant conversation previously . Now when she was thinking of going out for a walk, she couldn’t help calling her out .

Mu Yunyao didn’t want to stay in the main hall and be sized up by everyone, so she followed Zhang Wan to the garden to get some fresh air . Now, it was autumn, and the air she breathed was cool, causing one’s spirit to tremble .

“Little Sister Mu is truly fortunate to be able to accompany the Emperor to partic.i.p.ate in the September Autumn Hunting . ”

“Elder Sister Zhang, why are you so envious? You might even be able to go when the time comes . ”

Zhang Wan quickly shook her head . “The Autumn Hunting in September is unusual . Other than the prince and some ladies of high status, we have never had a chance . ”

“That was back then, but isn’t there now the Grand Princess Yi De?” Since Grand Princess Yi De wanted to select people, she naturally had carefully selected them . She would have to see them a few more times to understand their temperament . Besides, after the Mid Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, it’s not long before the Autumn Hunting in September . It just so happened to be the right time to observe everyone’s character . At that time, the Emperor might ask people to bring the young ladies of the various families .

Zhang Wan’s eyes lit up . “Is that really possible?” She did not wish to win the Grand Princess’s admiration, but she only hoped to catch a glimpse of Su Qingwu’s elegance during the Autumn Hunting .

“If Elder Sister Zhang trusts me, why don’t you prepare your riding clothes after you return?”

“Alright . ” Zhang Wan was overjoyed . After saying so, she felt that her tone was too hasty . She quickly added, “Even if I can’t wear it then, I will have a chance to do so in the future . Making a set of clothes won’t be a waste …”

Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded . Zhou Yuyin walked over to look for Zhang Wan as if she had something to say .

Mu Yunyao considerately walked to the side to admire the flowers . The Palace’s flowers were even more precious than those outside, and their quality was also better . It was just that a chrysanthemum was unexpectedly blooming in a purple flame, causing her to be slightly startled .

“Looking at Miss Mu’s expression, it seems that you are very fond of this purple flame . Don’t you like the Shameless Beauty I gave you?”
