Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Feast of the Hung Gate (3)

As the saying goes, during the Lantern Festival, the imperial city never sleeps. Pen % fun % pavilion www.biquge.info Spring Festival lantern viewing party, a hundred miscellaneous shows. The riddle book is in the lamp, reflected in the candle, listed in the thoroughfare, and let people guess the degree. That's why it's called a lantern riddle.

At this moment, Lin Xunfang came out of a poetry club, and he guessed a few lantern riddles there, but only one was correct, so he got a small object and played with it in his hand. And Ye Ying is a person who practices martial arts, and he has always been indifferent to this poetry, so he waited at the door, and the young general was not there, so the task of accompanying Lin Xun to enjoy the lanterns fell on his head.

The little girl who came with her had already stopped at the place where the dragon dance lantern was held, and Lin Xun saw that she was very interested, so he left her there to watch the dragon dance, and he walked forward with Ye Ying.

"Brother Ye, this Lantern Festival, why don't you play anything?" Lin Xun said while playing with the small ceramic he had just won in his hand, "Could it be that the people in the army are so solemn?" How boring is that...... You say that you are usually strict and solemn, but you don't want to relax in this beautiful season, how tiring it is. ”

When Ye Ying heard this, she had to smile and said: "Ye is a rough person, he can neither recite poems and guess a riddle like Gongzi, nor is he as dashing and casual as Gongzi, so he is naturally ...... Hehe, naturally it seems stereotypical. As she spoke, Ye Ying scratched her head.

Lin Xun glanced at him, and saw that although he was usually serious, he looked like a child at the moment, and he was a little dumbfounded, especially the two sentences that he praised himself, which made people sound really comfortable, so he smiled and said: "Brother Ye, what you say is not rude, what about me, it is just such an advantage." You see, my martial arts skills are not as good as my sister and Brother Qi, and my family background is not as big as the Tang Guxi family, and my experience is even less than your qualifications. You say that if I am not more charming, how can I be looked up to? ”

"Yes, yes, Lin Gongzi is right." Ye Ying echoed with a smile.

"Hey, hey." Lin Xun put his arm on Ye Ying's shoulder, "But, Brother Ye, you don't have to be presumptuous, although I am handsome on the outside, but when it comes to leading the army and fighting on the battlefield, it is majestic...... It's still far from yours! ”

"Young Master Lin, you just ...... Did you just drink alcohol? ”

"Huh? Where's that? ”

"I smell a smell of wine on you......" Ye Ying said, frowning slightly, "Moreover, and the son is talking a little headless and tailless at the moment......"

Lin Xun laughed, looked ahead, and continued to move forward, "Your nose is really spiritual, you deserve to be General Qi's right-hand man!" When Fang Doushi guessed the lantern riddle, they poured a few glasses of wine, but I ......"

The two laughed and walked away as they walked away.

In the peony hall of the Shuiyun Pavilion, the candle shadow is shaking, the candle is gone, and there is no other noise here except for the sound of the piano. The heart of the water is still caressing the strings slowly, and the melodious and mournful tune is fluttering, which seems a little out of place in this Lantern Festival. But it just fell into Qi Yu's ears, once he listened to the music, he would be fascinated, so he didn't care what Spring Festival, what festival.

It's just that tonight, "Lovesick Tune" is full of mistakes, it is Shui Xin's best song, but for some reason, it is a little different from her previous playing.

At first, Qi Yu just thought she was too tired after a hard day. After all, in Xuanyang City, the rich sons come here to have a lot of pastimes, not to mention that on the night of the Shangyuan Festival, the women in the Shuiyun Pavilion must have been busy and tired for a day.

Thinking of this, Qi Yu was a little unbearable, opened his eyes and looked at Shui Xin, and saw that she was still playing with her head down, with no expression on her face, and she couldn't see the slightest change. He sighed, pulled his hands from the back of his head, and straightened up from the pillar.

"Stop." He raised his hand.

The sound of the piano stopped suddenly, Shui Xin looked at Qi Yu for some reason, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Take a break." As he spoke, Qi Yu raised his head and drank a glass of wine.

"It's the heart of the water...... Doesn't it play well? ”

Qi Yu smiled, "If I say yes, you will be sad, if you say no, then it will be against my heart." He looked up at Shui Xin, and then said, "Your "Acacia Tune" today is not bad, but ...... Rather, it seems to be different from before. Tsk, how to put it, I'm not a person who understands music, but this song is the one I've heard the most times, and this one of them...... There seems to be some urgency. ”

Hearing this, Shui Xin raised his head, his face a little stunned. Qi Yu knew he had guessed correctly.

"This is a mournful and lyrical song, long and slow is its true meaning, but today's song, the rhythm of the girl in the water heart is slightly faster, and the transition and junction seem to be a little impatient and messy." Qi Yu said slowly, "I wonder if I'm right?" ”

Shui Xin lowered his eyes and nodded slightly, "In Childe's words, Shui Xin is just ...... It's a bit absent-minded. ”

"So, what is it that disturbs the girl's absent-mindedness?"

Shui Xin's head lowered a little deeper, and Qi Yu couldn't see her expression clearly. After a moment of silence, she smiled with relief, the gloom on her face dissipated, shook her head, and said, "It's just trivial and trivial things, not enough to worry about." ”

Qi Yu smiled faintly, stretched out his hand and poured a glass of wine for Shui Xin, "In my eyes, any little thing about a beautiful woman is not insignificant. If the girl doesn't dislike it, why don't you listen to it? If Qi can help, it can be regarded as doing a little bit for the girl. ”

The smile on Shui Xin's face disappeared, and she was silent for a moment, only to see that her lips did not move, but her hands were raised, and she stroked the strings again, "Fang Cai's "Acacia Tune" is not satisfactory, so it is better to change to another one." ”

Another tune slowly rose, much lighter than before, without so much sorrow, without the endless lovesickness, without the continuous lovesickness...... Some are just the joy of this "big bead and small bead falling on the jade plate", and the sound of the empty valley is in line with the atmosphere of this Lantern Festival.

Qi Yu also gave up, came back to his senses and continued to pour wine.

The sake flowed out of the spout and slowly poured into the glass, filling the small glass with the notes of the tune, light and transparent as amber and jade.

"Smack!" There was a loud bang, and the strings snapped.

Qi Yu hurriedly put down the jade pot and looked at Shui Xin anxiously, "What's the matter, are you hurt?" ”

Shui Xin gasped, raised his arms, hid his ten fingers in his sleeves, looked panicked, frowned slightly, and shook his head.

The successive situations made Qi Yu unable to calm down anymore, looking at Shui Xin's dodging gaze and slightly worried expression, he had already been clouded with a layer of doubt in his heart. With many years of combat experience, even if he is negligent in ordinary times, he will inevitably have a sense of vigilance.

"What's going on? Say it quickly. He looked at Shui Xin lightly, but his tone was resolute and unmistakable.

Shui Xin lowered his head slightly, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his gaze carefully moved to his face, and his voice tried his best to remain calm, "Shui Xin is really fine, I just want to talk to Childe." ”

"What are you talking about?"

"I heard that some guests came to the Gongzi's Mansion a few days ago, and they all have extraordinary postures and excellent skills. Water Heart ...... Shui Xin's heart was itching, and he had long wanted to meet the distinguished guests in the house, but he stayed at home in this museum all day long, and he had no chance to meet each other. Shui Xin said, his tone softened and calmed down a lot, "I thought that when the prince came today, he would definitely bring a few distinguished guests, but he didn't think about it, and he still didn't see ......."

"Hahaha......" Qi Yu heard this, and raised his head and laughed, "It's because of this, you just said no." I went out in a hurry today, and I didn't tell them, but next time I have the opportunity, I will let you meet a few of you. ”

"Today is the Lantern Festival, how many of them ...... Didn't they come out? ”

Qi Yu drank a few glasses of wine, became a little drunk, smiled and looked at Shui Xin, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw her looking straight at herself at the moment, changing her usual shy, charming and delicate attitude, and the words she wanted to say stopped in her throat, and she felt a little strange for a while, and she couldn't say half a sentence.
