Chapter 127: Mooncake Festival


    Libin choked on the mooncake he was munching when he saw Dus appearance, so Yui Mei patted him on the back.


    Are you okay? Do you want to drink some hot water?


    Yui Mei was worried about him, but Libin just red at her.


    She already knew what Libin wanted to say in that look of his.


    Please dont say anything. That person is <i>the</i> Eunuch Du, apparently.


    Libin looked like he wanted to retort something to this exnation, but he held his tongue, in the end.


    Well, it wasnt like Libin could say as if theres a suspicious eunuch like that! .


    If he said those words, he would definitely get a rebuttal at the speed of light.


    <i>Aunty Yang~, why dont you choose the people youre going to invite in this moon viewing!</i>


    Nevertheless, Yui Mei was just a mere low-ranking courtdy, so she wasnt in the position to drive people away.


    Mei Nai stared at the unfamiliar eunuch with interest.


    Oh, the number of eunuchs increased. Is he an acquaintance of Yang?


    Well, yes. I thought were already here, so we might as well watch the moon together.


    Yang replied when Mei Na cheerfully asked without a care in the world.


    Really! Well, yeah, in these kind of things, the more the merrier, right!


    Mei Naughed when she heard her response, then she pulled a table nearby to make some space for Yang and Du.


    Yui Mei was amazed while looking at them, inwardly thinking that Mei Na was awesome.


    Mei Na had probably never seen the emperor before, so she didnt have any misgivings or doubts toward Du.


    Be that as it may, this persons aura was too strong, or should she say too intimidating for a eunuch, and it wouldnt be a wonder if people would harbor a sense of fear towards this person.


    The air was simr to Libin, but Dus aura was far more ufortable.


    <i>Rather than saying he couldnt hide his aura, its as if he isnt even attempting to hide it at all</i>


    Libin worked hard to act like a eunuch, butpared to him, Du looked like he only perfunctorily changed his appearance, and that was the difference between them.


    Anyhow, the two neers seats had already been settled, so Yui Mei also arranged the mooncakes on their table.


    Hoh, these mooncakes look delicious.


    Yui Mei was happy when these mooncakes were praised, no matter who the other person was.


    Its Mei Nas creation, and I also helped her a bit!


    Du narrowed his eyes as he watched Yui Mei puff her chest with pride.


    Really, so you also helped make this I gratefully ept.


    Du said that as he took one of the mooncakes, then he tore a piece and ate it.


    His movements were extremely elegant. The mooncake that he chose was the squash one.


    What is this? Its unfamiliar, but it tastes good.


    Thats made from gourd.


    Du was perplexed, so Mei Na exined it.


    Hoh, I didnt know that there are sweet gourds.


    The gourd supplier said its from the South.


    Du tore a piece again and ced it in his mouth during their conversation. He seemed to like it.


    <i>Congrats, squash, the most important person in this country is eating you!</i>


    This moment could surely be the first step of the squashs invasion of the Sai Empire.


    Yui Mei was filled with happiness because of the sess of squash, as if it was her own triumph.


    Oh, right, Yui Mei.


    Du called out to her.


    Yes?


    Yui Mei faced Du properly, and he continued on.


    I heard that you didnt name yourself in front of that guy Ming?


    Du pointed that out, and Yui Mei inwardly thought, so its about this.


    Yes, well, that person didnt even introduce himself, either.


    Yui Mei readily replied.


    Indeed, she heard about Ming from Li Yong and General Li, but the person in question didnt tell her anything about himself directly.


    Well, it might be true that there was no need for a big-wig to bother introducing himself to a low-ranking courtdy; stil, among all the big-wigs that Yui Mei encountered, no one treated her like that, even if they were famous people who didnt have any obligation to tell her their name.


    Indeed, Mings manners had beencking.


    Du rubbed his chin while saying that. Yui Mei continued on.


    Besides, self-introduction is part of mutual acknowledgement, no? In that case, that person should get his act together. If this continues on, hes totally a good-for-nothing adult at this rate.


    Hahaha! I see, indeed, good-for-nothing people are despicable.


    Du chuckled happily at Yui Meis words.


    He then changed the subject, saying on a different note.


    I also brought some mooncakes. Yang said you already have the sweet ones, so these are filled with savory meat.


    Du nced at Yang after saying that. She had been silent since earlier, and now she wordlessly ced the package on the table.


    It contained beautifully baked mooncakes, of course.


    Yui Mei was amazed when she picked one.


    Wow, these are freshly baked!?


    Mooncakes were generally set to rest so that it would be moist before being eaten, but these mooncakes were still crispy.


    Indeed, I favor freshly baked ones.


    Dumented like a connoisseur, and Yui Mei was moved with admiration, thinking that Hes a proper adult!


    Besides, he wouldnt be able to enjoy freshly baked and cooked food as the emperor.


    This guy apparently wanted to enjoy his current identity to the fullest.


    Yui Mei stuffed her mouth with the crispy mooncakes, and her eyes widened when she bit into it.


    <i>Its spicy!</i>


    The scent assaulted her nostrils at the same time she tasted the spicyness.


    They used spices in these, apparently.


    In this country, spices were considered a luxuriousmodity obtained from other countries.


    It looked in, but it was an extremely valuable mooncake.


    Wow, amazing, how novel, its so delish!!


    Really?


    Yui Mei unwittingly started to stomp her feet in excitement, so Mei Na also took a piece.


    Yui Mei, we get it already, so do stop kicking your legs.


    Libin cautioned Yui Mei, but he didnt attempt to get one of Dus mooncakes.


    As expected, he would probably choke, unable to swallow if he were to eat and drink given this situation.


    Hmmm~ So yummy, this is heaven~!


    Yui Mei was so touched because of the deliciousness of the mooncakes that she couldnt help but still vigorously swing her feet, so he decided to just let it go this time.


    What a lively child, shes really different from her.


    Dus faintly whispered, but it fortunately didnt reach Yui Meis ears.


    And this was how the autumn night passed in the Hundred Blossom Pce.


    T/N: Doting Daddy Emperors real motive  feed Yui Mei! XD


    Here are some mouthwatering mooncakes!
