Chapter Twenty-Five: Piano Skills
After noon, it was a competition of music and rhythm, and the competition between Yuan Hongxuan and Mei Ji became the highlight, and everyone gathered around the soft sedan chair of the emperor and queen to the green willow villa behind the Wenxiu Palace.
The royal family is really generous, Miao Zhi thought it was called a villa, but it was just a garden, and when she arrived at the place, she realized that it was really a veritable villa.
Green Willow Villa is built on a hill, and a small forest can be seen in the distance on the hillside, and in front of it is a semi-artificial and semi-natural peach blossom forest, and winding paths and corridors can be seen everywhere.
Walking to the depths of the peach blossom forest, the sparkling lake water comes into view.
There are pebbles of different colors around the lake, and when the sun shines down, the gorgeous stones are even more dazzling against the backdrop of the lake, and at first glance they look like gems, and people can't help but want to reach out and touch them.
Goldfish of different species in the water are leisurely whirling and waging their tails, so uncomfortable. In the middle of the lake, you can see a natural spring, and the thick water column rushes out of the lake, and the crystal water splashes in all directions, and from time to time the lake surface is rippled in circles.
It's really a nice place.
Then go forward and go dozens of meters, a fairly large garden comes into view, more than a dozen pavilions are reflected among the flowers and trees, which are very close to each other, and the pavilions are surrounded by light yarn, making people feel like they have arrived in a paradise.
In this situation, everyone was even more unrestrained, and Bei Anhuang and his party sat in the pavilion in the middle, and everyone also found someone they knew well to choose a pavilion to sit down.
Miao Zhi followed Ling Shuirong and just raised her feet to enter a pavilion, but was intercepted by Princess Zhaohua to go to her pavilion, and when she left, she really saw the emotion in Ling Shuirong's eyes when she saw Princess Zhaohua, it seems that she really likes Princess Zhaohua and has a home.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but sigh secretly for Shen Yuqian in my heart, this unruly princess may become his sister-in-law just around the corner.
In the pavilion, in addition to Bei Yiyuan and Yuan Hongxuan, there is another person in front of the stone table, that is, the little prince Bei Yihui, who loves to travel and play. Princess Zhaohua pulled her in affectionately, and several of them bowed their heads politely to each other.
The piano art competition began, such an elegant competition is not so exquisite, as long as the name is reported, you can start the competition directly in your own pavilion, and the pleasant sound of the piano lingers in your ears from time to time.
Miao Zhi didn't listen at all at the moment, all she was worried about was Yuan Hongxuan, that Mei Ji's way of learning was tricky and weird, and he was injured, and he didn't know how long he could last.
The man in front of him had a handsome and beautiful face, monochrome lips, pupils half-closed covered by eyelashes, and a slightly pale face, and he lowered his head and didn't know if he was thinking about the next competition.
Yuan Hongxuan felt that a hot light always fell on him, and as soon as he raised his head, he met Miao Zhi's slightly worried clear eyes, looking at him steadily.
He opened and closed his thin lips, and whispered to the woman in a ghostly lip language, "Don't worry. After finishing speaking, even he felt a little surprised, and he opened his eyes unnaturally.
Miao Zhi naturally understood, her cheeks were quietly dyed with a touch of crimson, and even her originally white ears showed a hint of redness.
For such a long time, Princess Zhaohua has long been a little unhappy. Brother Yu is not there, it seems that nothing can make her lift her spirits, and she only feels very tired and lazy. She was going to take Miao Zhi to the pavilion where the first concubine was to have some fun, but Miao Zhi politely refused, and finally had to lead the maid out of the pavilion in frustration.
The competition is finally over, and the highlight that everyone is looking forward to is coming. There was a faint excitement on everyone's faces, as if the competition just now was just an insignificant performance, and the next thing was the real competition.
Mei Ji's soft voice came from a gazebo diagonally opposite, and her white hands painted with blood-red danko could be faintly seen in the thin curtain of light veil.
Yuan Hongxuan did not delay, got up and returned to the emperor, and then some palace people entered the pavilion where the two of them were located, and carefully arranged the guqin.
As soon as Qiē was ready to order, the eunuch shouted "start" in a high voice. After a while, the piano music in the pavilion where Mei Ji was located was raised, and the sound of the piano was mellow, if the sound of Jiuxiao Huanpei, Yuan Hongxuan here also moved his fingers and played slowly.
The ethereal and tactful tune follows the pace of Mei Ji, and the two tunes are like two swimming dragons, frolicking in the mountains and rivers.
Everyone was listening to it and enjoying it, and suddenly Mei Ji's style changed, and the timbre was raised several tones, just like a warrior ready to go, the armor and saber were surging and Huo Huo, Yuan Hongxuan also hurriedly changed his fingering, the rhythm was like a restrained and calm but battle-hardened general, Jin Ge Iron Horse was awe-inspiring in front, and he was stunned to overwhelm Mei Ji.
Mei Ji under the light veil in the pavilion hooked her lips obliquely, her eyes flowed, and the internal force was slowly injected into her fingers, and the sound of the piano changed again, just like a fierce and murderous python, rising from the bottom of the deep pool, opening its bloody mouth to reveal sharp serrations, tightly winding people, spitting blood-red letters will swallow it as long as it takes a bite.
Yuan Hongxuan and Bei Yiyuan were both stunned, and the two of them locked their eyebrows, and they understood in an instant. Miao Zhi also felt as if a pair of hands were tightly choking her throat in this voice, and that hand was ready to strangle her to death with a little more force, so she hurriedly covered her ears with her hands to isolate the song.
Yuan Hongxuan didn't have time to think about it, the soul-seizing song involved everyone, most of the people here have no martial arts, they have no internal strength, if they don't break this tune at this time, I'm afraid that most people will be victimized by it.
The fingers can also exert internal force, like a domineering dragon, swooping down from the air, directly hitting the giant python in the water, and the sharp and wide claws pierced deeply into the skin and flesh of the giant python.
When Mei Ji heard this, her charming eyebrows raised, and she seemed to appreciate her opponent's adaptability. Because of this, she still poured more internal force into her fingertips, and the giant python turned over to dodge in pain, escaping from the sharp claws of the dragon, and then swayed its huge waist, opened its mouth and bit the dragon's body fiercely.
Oops, Yuan Hongxuan was shocked, he was injured, after fighting with the man in black earlier, the poisonous hair had consumed most of the internal force in his body, together with the internal force exerted in the sound of the piano just now, he was a little weak at this time. Most of the wounds under his robe burst open, and he seemed to feel the viscous liquid soaking the innermost layer of his middle coat.
What is the case now?
Beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his clenched lips turned white. Bei Yiyuan also used his internal force to suppress the surging qi and blood in his body, and he couldn't imagine that this Mei Ji was a female streamer, and her skills in controlling the piano were so superb, and her eyes were even more anxious to look at Yuan Hongxuan, who had ten fingers flying in front of the piano platform.
