Chapter Seventy-Six: A Gentleman and a Lady
In the courtyard of Guanghan Palace, there is a crisp and translucent white gauze curtain, and several vivid and agile figures are jumping on the curtain, and a shadow puppet show is being staged. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The behind-the-scenes controllers are playing with more than a dozen shadow figures at the same time, including the majestic general, the tender young lady, and the weird and changeable goblins, all of whom are vivid.
Sometimes the sword light and sword shadow, sometimes the moon before the flower, sometimes the smoke and smoke, the exquisite pavilions, cars, ships and sedan chairs, plus the touching rhythm, is very interesting.
Chang'e handed Tianwen a plate of peeled green lotus seeds, and said with a smile: "Taste it, just picked it, it's very tender." ”
Tianwan's eyes stared at the shadow puppet show without blinking, and her fingers casually reached into the saucer, and she put one in her mouth.
Chewing lightly, a faint fragrance suddenly overflowed, sweet and slightly astringent, and praised: "Well, it's good." He added, "Although your Guanghan Palace is cold, it is quiet and pleasant, and the furnishings in the house are all high-quality products, and even this shadow puppet show is better than others." ”
Chang'e laughed: "This shadow puppet artist is not in my palace, his identity is expensive, and I can't afford to use it." ”
Tianwan looked at her suspiciously.
Chang'e said: "You'll know later." He smiled again, "You have always loved to be lively, and you don't want to come to my remote and deserted place." If there was no such play, I am afraid that I would not be able to sit still. ”
Tianwan said lightly: "Now I like to be quiet." Afraid that Chang'e would think too much, she added, "The three I brought to the sky turned my palace upside down, and the chickens and dogs jumped every day, and the noisy people had headaches." ”
As he was talking, the drama on the white gauze curtain came to an end, a man and a woman walked out from behind the scenes, the man was wearing a crow blue robe, Xiao Xiao was like a green bamboo, and the woman was wearing a green Luo skirt with two white flowers in her bun, as pretty as a narcissus.
It turned out that it was her second brother Tianxuan and the dragon girl Biluo who were behind the manipulation, no wonder Chang'e couldn't afford it.
Biluo greeted Tianwan and Chang'e, and Tianwan hurriedly stepped forward to take her hand and let her sit beside her. Looking at Tianxuan, there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes, and he sighed: "How elegant a gentleman is, how beautiful a quiet girl is." Second brother, what a Yaxing! ”
Tianxuan didn't care, threw a shadow figure to Tianxuan, pulled out a chair with a big grin, and sat down by himself.
Biluo lowered her head slightly, and a few strands of green silk covered her bright eyes, but she couldn't hide the flush on her face.
Tianwan poured a glass of water and handed it to her, "Moisten your throat first." ”
Tianxuan said: "I rehearsed with Biluo for ten days, how is it, it's not bad, right?" ”
Chang'e did not hesitate to praise: "I have never seen such a vivid and interesting shadow puppet play, elegant and realistic, and evocative." ”
Tianxuan laughed, "No wonder everyone likes to be friends with you, I'm afraid you've never offended anyone with this mouth." ”
Chang'e said seriously: "What I said is all the truth. ”
Tianwan picked up the exquisitely carved shadow figure and played with it, and said with a smile: "Second brother, don't patronize talking, peel a few lotus seeds for my future second sister-in-law to eat." ”
"That's it." Chang'e pushed the plate containing the lotus canopy in front of Tianxuan.
Tianxuan rolled up his sleeves without hesitation, picked up a lotus pod, and round lotus seeds jumped out of his hands, all of them verdant and lovely.
The flush on Biluo's face was even more.
Seeing that she was shy, Tianwan and Chang'e stopped teasing her and led the topic to the side. Biluo gradually became comfortable, and the four of them drank and chatted, so unhappy.
Halfway through the meal, the maid came over with a green bamboo basket and handed it to Chang'e, "Fairy, Fairy Shuyu sent someone to send some water chestnuts and lotus roots, saying that Yeli Shenjun planted them himself, please try them." ”
The smile on Tianwan's face froze, and she couldn't suppress the pain in her heart.
That day in Jia Yao Palace, Su Yeli's full disclosure and undeniable made her both sad and embarrassed, and she felt very ashamed. It turned out that her liking was a burden to guard against in his eyes.
Chang'e asked the maid to put down the bamboo basket and explained, "That demon princess is now soliciting people everywhere, don't think I'm good friends with her!" ”
Tianwan said duplicitously: "She has now returned to my clan, and it is nothing for you to be friendly with her, but when you say this, it seems that I have some grudge with her." ”
"Really?" Chang'e took out all the water chestnut lotus roots in the bamboo basket, "This jade fairy is intimate, it's all cooked, then let's eat it with an open belly." ”
Tian Xuanban lowered his face.
Chang'e chuckled, Tianxuan waved her sleeves to change those water chestnut lotus roots, and said, "That Huaqiong Hall can't grow good things, so it's okay if you don't eat them." ”
Chaotian said again: "All this time, I haven't had a chance to ask you, what's going on between you and Su Yeli?" ”
Tianwan took a date and put it in her mouth, and said lightly: "It's nothing." ”
Seeing her appearance, Tianxuan hurriedly said: "What do you have to say to us, you used to be so good, you stuck together all day long, I have long regarded him as a brother-in-law." Why did he suddenly abandon you and marry your long-cherished girl? ”
Tianxuan's face was ugly, Biluo quietly pulled Tianxuan's sleeve, Tianxuan slowed down and softened her voice, "If he loses you, my eldest brother and I will make decisions for you." ”
Tianwan's heart warmed, and said: "Second brother, I did have an interest in Su Yeli in the past, but everything was my own wishful thinking, he never expressed his love for me, nor did he have any transgressive actions towards me, so he didn't fail me." I've known him since childhood, maybe he just treats me as a sister, and I've been in love with him for a long time. ”
Tianxuan frowned, "Since he likes that witch, he shouldn't provoke you!" If you want me to say that he has no thoughts about you, I don't believe it, where does he look at you like a sister? And the things he's done for you, so kind......"
"But," Tianwan interrupted him, "he didn't plant water chestnut lotus root for me with his own hands. Why didn't he do much for Su Mei'er? ”
Tianxuan was silent and took a sullen sip of wine.
Chang'e said: "Why should the second highness be like this, the third princess is talented and beautiful, I don't know how many men miss her, why can't you find Ruyi Langjun?" ”
Tian Qiqi said: "Who misses me? ”
For 50,000 years, she has received everything, but she has never received love poems, and she has not enjoyed the taste of being pursued, which is a great pity.
Chang'e was stunned and said vaguely: "A lot." ”
Tianwan knew that she was comforting her.
Biluo said softly: "For example, my second uncle, he has a deep love for the third princess, and he will not marry." Gently approached Tianwen and solemnly recommended, "My second uncle is very good, he is talented, his appearance is extraordinary, and the most important thing is that he is emotionally single-minded, why don't you find a chance to meet?" ”
Tianwen asked, "Who is your second uncle?" ”
Without waiting for Biluo to answer, she had already calculated in her heart that Biluo's father was the third prince of the Dragon King, and the second uncle was the second prince of the Dragon King.
She vaguely remembered the second prince of the Dragon King, with a single name and a pro character.
