“Where are you going for the Mid-Autumn Festival?”
Gu Ying should not have asked, but he remembered that he was supposed to bring MO Ruyue to Xiangguo Temple on the Mid-Autumn Festival.
MO Ruyue also remembered Gu Ying’s invitation, but she did not seem to have accepted it openly.
“She invited me to go to Xiangguo Temple with her.”
Gu Ying’s face turned even darker.
“Why don’t you go with me?”
As soon as MO Ruyue said this, Gu Ying’s face turned from dark to bright.
“Alright, we’ll go together then.”
“It’s getting late, you should rest early.”
Gu Ying left after saying that and left excitedly.
MO Ruyue wondered if she was too soft-hearted.
The Mid-Autumn Festival soon arrived. MO Ruyue, who thought she could go to Xiangguo Temple during the day, was summoned into the Palace by the Emperor to accompany Empress Dowager and Imperial Concubine Li to celebrate the Mid -Autumn Festival.
As usual, MO Ruyue went to Imperial Concubine Li’s place after arriving at the Palace. After taking her pulse, she went to the Empress Dowagers place for dinner with Imperial Concubine Li.
Imperial Concubine Li started talking about the Yuan Family. The family that almost killed her.
MO Ruyue suddenly remembered Yuan Shan, who had asked her for help. It had been a few days, but nothing bad had happened to her. It seemed that everything before was purely a coincidence.
MO Ruyue was relieved.
She wanted to give her such a big cheat, but she had to save everyone. That was really disgusting.
MO Ruyue spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with Empress Dowager, Imperial Concubine Li and the Emperor.
She thought that she might not be able to stroll around Xiangguo Temple and the streets today, but Empress Dowager spoke up.
“Alright, this widow is already very happy to have all of you accompany her for a reunion dinner. I am old and my body is heavy. Now that it is dark, I want to
“You guys can go play if you want to.”
MO Ruyue really wanted to leave immediately, but she couldn’t leave after Empress Dowager said so. It would seem like she didn’t want to stay here.
“I’m afraid that if I don’t let you out, that girl Jiaxin will run into the palace and cause trouble for me. Go.”
After MO Ruyue left the Palace, she immediately sent someone to the Song family to inform Song Jiaxin to come over. She went home and changed into her usual clothes. She was going to play, so she had to wear something light.
Gu Ying arrived very quickly. MO Ruyue had also tidied up the place, but Song Jiaxin had yet to arrive.
MO Ruyue planned to go directly to the Song Family’s house. As soon as they left the house, they saw Song Jiaxin with three people following behind her.
“Sister Princess, I’m sorry for being late.”
“It’s okay. Let’s go.”
As it was the Mid-Autumn Festival today, the streets were bustling with people. It was not convenient for them to take a carriage, so they had to walk to Xiangguo Temple.
Fortunately, it wasn’t far away, so she could take her shopping.
From afar, they could see the lively scene of the lights shining at the entrance of Xiangguo Temple.
MO Ruyue could even hear the street vendors shouting at the entrance of her house.
“Sister Princess, let me introduce you. These people came with me. You won’t mind, right?”
MO Ruyue was speechless. She had already brought them here, and now she said she minded. Would they leave?
When Song Jiaxin said this, she looked very embarrassed and apologetic.
Originally, they had agreed that only they would go and play by themselves. Now that there were a few more people and they didn’t know each other, it might not be very comfortable for them to play later.
However, what could she do? She had been threatened by her family, and they were clinging to her stubbornly. She could not kick them away. Moreover, she had already rejected them, but those two shameless women were still sticking to her.
Although MO Ruvue did not like to scheme against others, she was aware of the twists and turns between these aristocratic families.
She wasn’t angry about the people Song Jiaxin brought along. Anyway, they were just shopping on the streets. They didn’t have anything to do with each other, so it was fine.
“This is Minister Li’s second son.”
“These two are the two Di daughters of the Liu family.”
From the way Song Jiaxin introduced them and didn’t mention their names, it was obvious how much she disliked these people. To be exact, she didn’t like those two women.
And that man, the second son of Minister Li, wasn’t he Song Jiaxin’s fiance? He was probably angry at her.
Those two were the Liu family’s Di daughters. Song Jiaxin obviously didn’t like them, but she still wanted to bring them along. MO Ruyue figured out that these two were probably the Empress’ nieces.
MO Ruyue did not understand. She and the Empress were on bad terms and could be considered to have a life-and-death feud.
These two people actually had the nerve to come shopping with her?
As expected, shameless people were invincible.
MO Ruyue nodded at them, then pulled Song Jiaxin and led the way.
As for the two Di daughters of the Liu family, they were intentionally or unintentionally approaching Gu Ying.
“This young master is this year’s runner-up, right? This little girl, Liu…”
Gu Ying did not listen to the Liu family’s Di daughter finish speaking. He walked straight to the stall in front of him and bought two skewers of candied haws.
Gu Ying took the candied fruit back. The two daughters of the Liu family thought it was for them and were excited. In the end, Gu Ying directly stuffed the candied fruit into MO Ruyue and Song Jiaxin’s hands.
“I’m sure you’ve all come out after dinner. There might be something delicious later. Have some hawthorn to digest first.”
MO Ruyue could already guess that the two Di daughters of the Liu Family were the Empress’ nieces, let alone Gu Ying who already knew a thing or two about the Imperial Court.
He completely ignored the two women who had been trying to get close to him.
The Liu family’s daughters wanted to talk to Gu Ying several times along the way, but Gu Ying avoided them every time.
No matter how stupid the two were, they knew that Gu Ying did it on purpose. The two of them were so angry that they didn’t know if they should continue to follow him. However, if they didn’t follow him, they wouldn’t be satisfied. Their family members wanted them to be in the second place’s eyes. It would be best if they could get him to take a fancy to one or two of them. If such a talent was roped in by their Liu family, it would be able to increase their Liu family’s strength.
However, they did not expect Gu Ying to be so stubborn and pretend not to hear them. No matter how thick-skinned he was, and with the second son of the Minister’s family and the young lady of the Song family present, they could not be too obvious.
As for Princess Ming Yue, in their eyes, she was just an ignorant country bumpkin who was lucky enough to save the Emperor, thus obtaining the Princess’ title.
Because it was night, although there was candlelight, the things on the stall could not be seen clearly. At least, it was not clear whether they were clean or not.
MO Ruyue didn’t want to eat the food at the stall at all. She had eaten her fill in the Imperial Palace, so she wasn’t hungry at all.
“Sister, look, in front of us is Xiangguo Temple. We’ll reach it after crossing this bridge.”
Song Jiaxin happily pulled MO Ruyue to the front.
On the main road into Xiangguo Temple, along with the two sides of the bridge, there were two rows of lanterns lit up, looking very beautiful.
Because there were many lanterns here, the road was also illuminated more clearly.
It was unknown whether it was a river or a pond under the bridge, but it was quite big. The two ends could not be seen because of the darkness.
As they walked to the arched bluestone bridge, the lights on both sides were reflected in the water, shining brightly.
There were also stalls on both sides of the bridge, even more than on the street.
Wouldn’t this disturb the peace of Xiangguo Temple?
