The Empress Dowager

Chapter 101 The Mid-Autumn Festival
In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. This was Nangong Yue's first Mid-Autumn Festival in this era. There was no joy of family reunion, but a little more melancholy. Nangong Yue had been away from home for more than three months, and she didn't know her father, how is mom

Nangong Yue was in a bad mood. Dongmei thought that Nangong Yue was thinking of the old lady, so she didn't bother her much.

Over there, Jiang shi took Nangong Lin to the palace to attend a banquet early in the morning. Nangong's mansion was busy with moon appreciation at night, and they were very busy inside and out.

Here, Nangong Yue sat on the soft couch and looked at the "Tongjian of Different Texts" carefully. Suddenly, the room was silent, only the sound of Nangong Yue turning the pages of the book could be heard.

At this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside with a 'squeak' sound. Nangong Yue thought it was Dongmei who came in, so she didn't care.

"Nangong, this princess is here, why don't you hurry up and salute?" Princess Mingjia who was standing aside looked at Nangong Yue with raised eyebrows and asked.

Nangong Yue raised her eyes and saw that Princess Mingjia was dressed a little more luxuriously than usual.

Nangong Yue put down the book in her hand, fell down, and blessed Princess Mingjia: "I don't know that the princess is coming, but I am far away to welcome her. I hope the princess will make amends."

"Okay, Nangong, I'm just joking with you, do you take it seriously?" Princess Mingjia sat on the couch as she spoke, picked up "Tongjian of Different Texts" and flipped through a few pages, then put it down again , looked up at Nangong Yue: "Nangong, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, why are you reading here alone?"

"Princess, the Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated at night, so why not read a book here?"

Only then did Princess Mingjia realize that Nangong Yue was in a bad mood: "Nangong, what happened to you today? Who messed with you? I will teach him a lesson for you."

"Thank you princess for your kindness. No one bullies Yue'er, but Yue'er is so bored." Nangong Yue said.

"It's just right, Nangong, there is a banquet in the palace today, and Bengong is here to take you to the banquet. You should dress up quickly and change into your clothes."

"Princess, this... I'm afraid it's inappropriate." Those who attended the palace banquet were the wives of officials above the third rank and their concubine's daughter, and she was not qualified to attend the palace banquet because she was a concubine.

"Is this suitable or not? It is suitable if I say it is suitable. Go!"

At this time, Dongmei just walked in and saw Princess Mingjia blessing her body: "Princess."

"Dongmei, you came just in time. Your second young lady will go to a palace banquet with Bengong soon, so hurry up and help your young lady dress up." Princess Mingjia said while looking at Dongmei.

"Yes, princess." Dongmei was overjoyed, only the eldest lady was qualified to attend the palace banquet, now the second lady can also go, that's really great!

Dongmei hurriedly took out several long skirts from the closet, chose for a long time, and finally chose a light blue Yunjinxiang skirt for Nangong Yue to change into.After changing her clothes, Nangong Yue sat in front of the dressing table as usual. Dongmei picked up a comb and helped Nangong Yue comb her hair into a beautiful bun. Dongmei picked a few beautiful hairpins from the jewelry box and put them in her hair , and helped Nangong Yue put on a light makeup, and after about half an hour, she finished her makeup.

Nangong Yue took a look in the mirror, and she usually looked up to the sky without makeup, but today she put on light makeup, and she really looked different.

Princess Mingjia looked at Nangong Yue who was walking slowly, her black jade-like eyes flashed a few traces of amazement.

"Nangong, I thought you were beautiful at first, but I didn't expect you to be even more beautiful after putting on makeup." Princess Mingjia praised.

"Princess, don't make fun of Yue'er." Nangong Yue said.

"How could it be a joke? It's getting late, let's go!" Princess Ming Jia said, and pulled Nangong Yue out.
