Chapter 2 The Bureau of Hua Ni 2
As soon as he returned to the room that day, Su E knocked on the door, and Shui Qiao, who was standing outside the door with a soup and was at a loss. Although they are both good friends with Qingluan, they are not familiar with each other. The unprepared meeting made the three parties quite confused, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
After welcoming the two of them in, Qingluan each filled a bowl of broth, and then said to Su E: "Sister has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it, Shui Qiaozi is an excellent sister, and she is also my only bosom friend among the dancers." ”
Maybe it was because the difference between the identities of the dancing maid and the aunt in charge was too great, Shui Qiao only hung his head and didn't say a word. Su E was not restrained, and said generously: "Shui Qiao, how long have you been practicing dance with a group of palace maids?" ”
"Slave maid...... It's a person from Caile Room, so it's about half a year. Her voice grew fainter because of timidity, and she clenched the hem of her garment, trying to squeeze out a smile. Caicai Le Fang was originally a palace room specially designed by the emperor to rehearse songs and dances during the 40th birthday of the Queen Mother, but after the birthday was delayed for some days due to other events, it was also retained for major celebrations and banquets, and experienced people were fixed to rehearse.
Although Shui Qiao's qualifications are not deep, he also knows a little about them.
"If that is the case, tell me what you think of the flower today."
probably didn't expect her to ask so bluntly, Shui Qiao was obviously stunned, and said in a low voice: "If Sister Qingluan is willing, this can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone......"
"You won't tell the truth." At a young age, she was named the aunt in charge, and the woman who had been mediating in Chaofeng Palace for a long time flashed a trace of shrewdness in her eyes, and there was a plausible smile on her lips, "You have been with those people for a long time, how can you not know what kind of character she Qin'er is." ”
After finishing speaking, he pushed the porcelain bowl full of clear soup coldly, and turned to look at Qingluan. "Since the girl treats you as a sister, please treat her with sincerity. If you are timid and fearful, and if you are afloat, there are many people in the palace, and each has its own faction, so you should not easily make friends with people. ”
Shui Qiaohe had heard such sharp words, and tears immediately rolled in his eyes. I tried my best to distinguish something, but I really couldn't find anything wrong in Su E's words. Maybe she just wanted to find a like-minded friend to entertain the suffering in the palace, but she forgot that there was no love at all behind this iron wall.
"Auntie is serious." Seeing this scene, Qingluan hurriedly mediated, "Shui Qiao is just a little girl who doesn't know the world, she is silent on weekdays, and she doesn't like to talk about right and wrong behind her back." Auntie, you read that she is young, so don't worry about this. ”
"I don't know that I always have to know after I get to the end, I entered the palace at the age of twelve, and now I don't know too much about the Tao? Girl, you are too kind, but you don't know that the people in the palace are sinister, and you will suffer if you continue like this. ”
Shui Qiao blushed at what she said, and hurriedly lowered her head, but there was still grievance on her face.
"In short, no matter what, you must not agree with Qin'er, she is a scheming person, who knows if she still has a part in the matter of Lu Dao Dancing Ji being replaced." Seeing that Su E was so persistent, it was useless to say more, although Qingluan answered her verbally, she had already made a plan in her heart. She did not dare to tell Su E about her admiration for the luthier, and naturally she could not mention her agreement with the queen. Even if you know that you are being used, if you can get what you want, what does it matter if you give it a try.
Qingluan has always been a person with clear likes and dislikes, and if he wants to get it, he will give it a go. She may not have the skills of Concubine Chen, nor does she have Su E's high vigilance, but she can still live a peaceful life in the palace. It was those beautiful expectations that swirled in her mind that gave her such courage.
Seeing off the two, Qingluan stood alone in front of the window humming today's tune, only to feel that his heart was much clearer. Strange to say, such an ethereal and ethereal rhythm has been imprinted in her mind, and this wonderful feeling of déjà vu always makes her feel the urge to dance.
Thinking of that person gives people such a sense of separation. When they held hands inadvertently, they felt that he was so close to him, so close that they seemed to be able to hear each other's heartbeats. However, whenever I see him standing alone in the wind and playing the flute, I will feel that he is actually so unattainable. It was as if there was a huge gap between the two, a distance that she could only look up to.
Qingluan smiled, her eyes full of helplessness that did not belong to this age.
Not long after, I heard a smart singing voice outside the door, like a woman's soft voice. The notes flowed out naturally, like a breeze sweeping the surface of the lake, and the different elegance made Qingluan's heart ache - it was not the score in his hand. The melody sung by the warbler added a touch of color to Tianle, and Qingluan hurriedly pushed open the door, and sure enough, he saw a slender figure dancing in the plum bush opposite the courtyard.
The flying snow on the plum branches falls with the wind, surrounding the light-colored light skirt, the beauty looks back and smiles, and the phoenix eyes are raised, which has a thousand styles. She blessed Qingluan lightly, and the murmuring tone in her mouth stopped abruptly.
"Qin'er ......"
The dancer got up and said with a smile: "When did the girl come, let Qin'er be so ugly." ”
"I really didn't expect that you not only dance well, but also have such an amazing memory of music, but after listening to it once, you can ......"
"Qin'er told the girl a long time ago that people like us who practice dance have a love for music and dance that is far beyond the reach of others. I'm not afraid that the girl will know that Qin'er may not be as good as half of her in your eyes, but this stamen is none other than me. She paused, then smiled softly, "But for now, I'm convinced." You are more talented than me, and you are worthy of this swan song, but Qin'er is too mediocre to complain about others. ”
Qingluan's heart sank, she had indeed never taken a good look at the woman in front of her. Taking away what others are clinging to, even if it is a last resort, will bring pain to the other person. She couldn't see the sorrow in Qin'er's eyes, which made her feel uneasy.
How can she snatch what belongs to others for her own sake.
"Qin'er." When the woman in green turned around, Qingluan suddenly grabbed her slender arm and said firmly, "I didn't mean to fight with you for anything, and I couldn't convince the queen mother." But I can share the stamens with you and dance together as you say. ”
I thought she would be overjoyed, but she didn't expect that Qin'er was not as ecstatic as she imagined, but quietly overflowed with crystal in the corner of her eye. The woman said a deep blessing, and spit out the word Xie Lu Xie with difficulty. However, this was a great relief for Qingluan, and she only felt that she had finally made no big mistake.
Qingluan bowed his head slightly in response, and then walked away. It's just that for a moment, she didn't see a shrewd and sharp light behind her becoming more and more distinct with her distant figure. The green-clothed man clutched a piece of music paper in his hand, and there was a hint of a nonchalant smile on the corner of his mouth that was covered by the shadow of the tree.
