Ling Shuang's mother, Concubine Min Gui, loves to listen to operas, and there is a small stage in Baifang Garden. The pen %fun pavilion www.biquge.info pine and cypress stage is built near the flower hall, and there are pots of seasonal flowers around it, which is a splendid flower cluster and a magnificent appearance of purple and red. And in the stage deep in the fragrance of flowers, Shengdan Jingmo is babbling and singing, and the nobles and ladies in the audience are also talking and laughing, mixed with the silk and bamboo music on the stage.

Xianyue has never liked such noisy and earnest, and at this moment she is a little tired of it. Seeing that more than half of today's banquet is over, why haven't you seen the arrival of the four princes?

And at the moment, she is naturally not the only one who is worried about this.

The middle-aged beautiful woman in the magnificent red dress in the front row had no intention of listening to the play, and her eyebrows were tightly clinging to the woman in blue beside her. After a while, her face was pale, and she raised her jade hand lightly to attract the female official who was standing quietly not far away, and gritted her teeth in her ear and said in a thin voice, "Hexin, did Yongwei go to urge? Why hasn't this Zexiu come yet?"

Although the female officer in the dark robe was also anxious at the moment, but because everyone's faces were still as usual, she said, "Back to the master, I left for them half an hour ago, and it stands to reason that this son should also arrive ......."

Concubine Min's eyes were anxious and motioned for Hexin to retreat, but she couldn't help muttering, "Luo Shuiming's son is really as worry-free as her mother!"

Ling Shuang, who was sitting on his left side, frowned, and quietly turned away as if he had not heard of it.

On the other hand, the young woman who was persistent by Concubine Min was generally contemplative, as if the eagerness of the people around her had nothing to do with her. The woman's eyebrows are beautiful, her makeup is luxurious and beautiful, and her eyebrows are also heroic, and she is a moving appearance that is difficult to match.

After a while, the woman said indifferently, "Auntie, he doesn't want to come, and I don't want to see him again in the future......"

The beautiful woman in red was furious for a while, but she couldn't scream, so she could only suppress her voice to the bottom, "Shuyun, what are you talking nonsense? Don't you destroy your future!"

Before the woman could reply, Hexin suddenly stepped forward a few steps forward and whispered in front of the two of them, "There is a word from the other side of the palace gate, saying that the Fourth Highness has come down!"

Cui Shuyun looked up at the heroic martial arts fighting spear on the stage dejectedly, but his heart sank deeper and deeper as if it had been injected with lead.

Xianyue thought that maybe the four princes would not come today, so she beckoned to embroider velvet and asked her to tell Ling Shuang Elegy that she was unwell and wanted to leave first. Just as she was about to get up and take a step, suddenly a woman in orange stepped forward and grabbed her wide sleeves.

She turned around in surprise and saw that the woman in front of her was plump and slender, Fang Fei was charming, and her charming eyes were even more seductive, but they were faces she had never seen before.

"This sister looks good, and I don't know where she comes from?"

The woman's voice was tactful, and she easily attracted the attention of a small group of people around her. Xianyue didn't know what she meant, and she didn't want to say much to her, so she gently brushed her hand away and smiled and wanted to turn away.

"Isn't the family too decadent and ashamed to speak?" Seeing that Xianyue ignored her, the woman in orange was even more sure that her background was not good, and she was even more proud at this time, "I am the granddaughter of Lord Kang Ci Weng and the daughter of Cui Yuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites." ”

Xianyue suddenly paused, and her tone was cold, "My surname is Nalan." ”

"Are you the daughter of the Nalan family?" Cui Lingwu was shocked in her heart, and just hesitated and remembered that the third prince was no longer in the garden anyway, so she didn't care about it, "Hey, I've only heard that the Nalan family has a Tianmin county lord Nalan rhyme, but I don't know where you came from!"

Xiurong had just spoken for Xianyue in front, and when he returned a few steps, he saw this scene, and his anger rose spontaneously. She stepped forward to protect Xianyue, and then shouted at the orange-clothed woman in front of her, "Miss Cui, please respect yourself, Nalan Taifu has always had only one daughter, and this concubine is the honored guest of my Chonghua Palace in front of you, Nalan Xianyue!"

In the end, he grew up behind the princess since he was a child, and at this moment, the posture of embroidery velvet that trained people was even shocked.

And Cui Lingwu is naturally not a master who accepts it when he sees it, seeing that he is making a joke in front of everyone at the moment, although he can no longer be rude to Xianyue, but he must be able to teach a palace maid a lesson. And just as she made up her mind to raise her hand, a slightly muffled voice of banter suddenly came from behind her.

"It's really lively in the Dancing Palace, it's too late for you at the moment......"

Cui Lingwu's right hand was still raised in the air, but he was immediately dragged down by Hexin and another middle-aged female official who covered her lips with a handkerchief.

Lonely Zexiu glanced over, as if he hadn't seen it, and turned sideways and raised his thin lips like Zhu Dan's lacquer to the front of the stage, "Ling Shuang, come here." ”

"Fourth brother!"

Ling Shuang got up suddenly, and the light crimson golden silk fairy skirt left the ground, as bright as the first bloom of hibiscus, she smiled and walked backwards like a half-run. And the elegy and the seventh prince Lonely Zeyu, who were not far from her seat, also got up and followed, and for a while, the silk and bamboo in the garden plummeted, like a beautiful flower, full of side eyes, and whispered one after another.

Lonely Ze's slender arm stretched out to take the golden wire birdcage in He Zhao's hand behind him, and handed it to Ling Shuang's eyes steadily.

"Ah, it's a nightingale!"

Ling Shuang happily took the birdcage, and a pair of beautiful eyes suddenly did not leave the gray-brown bird with a golden bell on its neck in the cage. At this moment, the gentle and demure complexion that she had been hanging on her face suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a childlike innocence and cuteness. Although the feathers of the birds in the cage were not gorgeous, a pair of round eyes were like fine ink sapphires, reflecting the sparkling candles in the garden.

"Dali's black-capped nightingale, the song is the most melodious. ”

"Thank you, Fourth Brother, I like it very much," Ling Shuang's clear eyes finally lifted from the birdcage, and he whispered with a little pity, "But Dali is far away from the mountains and rivers of Shengjing, and this bird has suffered a lot since it came here thousands of miles away from home!"

The elegy waiting on the side couldn't bear it anymore, "Ling Shuang, can you also show me this treasure from afar?"

Ling Shuang looked back and smiled, and immediately carefully brought the cage to the elegiac singer, while Lonely Zeyu, who was standing not far from them, was young and silent, just quietly looking at the pair of sisters who could not hide their joy between their eyebrows.

Concubine Min Guilian came in steps, her beautiful eyes with slight smile lines were also shining, and she said in a gentle tone, "Ze Xiu, Shuyun specially ordered the small kitchen to make your favorite ginger fish fillet porridge today, you can sit down and taste it in a while before leaving." ”

Silence Zexiu retreated slightly, and said modestly, "Min Niangniang, the queen mother has been unwell recently, and her son is going to explore the disease at this time, so I won't stay for a long time today." ”

"Yes, yes, naturally the phoenix body of the queen's mother is the most important......"

Listening to Concubine Min's slightly depressed voice, the woman in blue behind her suddenly raised her lips and smiled. Although it is also beautiful, there is a loneliness in the eyes that cannot be dispersed.

Xianyue retreated outside the garden early in the morning, thinking about whether to wait here for a while, but he didn't want the group to come out soon. She was overjoyed in her heart, so she pretended to be natural and followed sideways.

Slowly a stone path outside Baifang Garden, and after a few framed scenes, the silk and bamboo chatter and laughter behind him finally faded faintly.

"Fourth Highness, you wait!" Xianyue gritted her teeth and chased after her with the hem of her robe, "I have something left here for you, on the day of the eldest princess's birthday banquet, the Fifth Highness left it in your brocade bag." ”

Silence Xiu stopped when he heard the sound, and looked back to see the girl's sideburns slightly messy, her lips pursed lightly, and a pair of clear eyes like autumn water were looking at herself. He motioned for the entourage beside him to leave first, and then looked back at the slightly apprehensive girl in front of him.

"Since he lost to me, that thing is mine. ”

The corners of Lonely Zexiu's lips skimmed slightly, as if he had a helpless look.

But Xianyue is not easy to dismiss in a few words, everyone knows that these four highnesses are the only concubines of His Majesty today, is there anything good in this world that can be without him? It was expected that he might just want to play tricks on himself, so she settled down and continued to say in a good voice, "Your Highness, it is just my personal belongings, and it is not worth your stay." ”

The man in front of him had deep eyebrows, but his smile suddenly became a little playful, "Oh, the fifth brother has your personal belongings in the brocade bag?"

Xianyue's eyes were bright, and he smiled calmly, "Your Highness, he is also my younger brother!"

"Let's change it. ”

Xianyue looked at Shan Ze Xiu talking so kindly for the first time in the past few times, and suddenly couldn't help but be a little shaken, "Change?"

The moonlight lit up instantly.

At this time, the newborn moonlight rushed into the girl's clear and bright eyes like sea water, and I saw her plain teeth and red lips, and her eyebrows were like ink paintings. Compared with today's red, pink and green, her simple moonlight tunic skirt looks much more plain.

The crescent moon is hanging high, and her reddish face is shining extremely smooth and thin, looking at it like a fairy on the moon.

Silent Zexiu was slightly stunned and then replied, "When will you leave the palace?"

"The thirtieth of this month. ”

"Well," Lonely Ze Xiufeng nodded sideways lightly, "Yunqin Zhai Qinji hurt her hand two days ago, so you can play the piano for her in the next few days." ”

These four highnesses have obviously thought about this one a long time ago.

"But Fourth Highness, I can't play the piano......"

As soon as the words came out, Xianyue himself felt embarrassed, the children of the family rarely did not master the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. But she felt that she was an outlier, perhaps because she had put all her mind on painting since she was a child, so several other skills were too mediocre compared to people.

And the piano skills are just her mediocre!

Instead of showing off the carving insect skills to be embarrassing, it is better to directly say that it will not be happy.

Lonely Zexiu didn't seem to expect her to answer like this, and a hint of surprise flashed in her hundred-foot-deep eyes, but she quickly eased up, her eyebrows stretched, and she raised her lips as if she couldn't help it for a while, and suddenly she seemed to be in a very good mood.

With such a positive opposite, Xianyue found that his appearance was so good-looking. The nose is like a gall, the thin lips are like carving, it is obviously a casual posture, but people don't feel like looking up, as if facing a towering wall. Looking at his star-bright eyes at the moment, a strange feeling suddenly appeared in her heart, as if a burst of indescribable sounds suddenly played in her heart, as if the morning light was first appearing, and it was like ice and snow melting.

In short, this smile made her whole heart crisp.

And the smile on Lin Zexiu's lips finally melted the almost indissolvable coldness in his eyes, "Then let's learn the piano." ”
