Chapter 069: Hand in Hand (Asking for Subscription)
Thanks to Long Yuanhai for the peach blossom fan and the peace charm for the night tip, Mo Da!
"As soon as King Qingping came, Guang'anhou's smile was brighter than a flower." Looking at the two people who walked here with a happy face, Ji Yuelian said with a smile.
"My sister-in-law is even more so when she sees my brother." Xi Zhen said with a red face.
"Mother, look, she's so sharp-toothed." Ji Yuelian turned her head to Du Qiniang with a happy face and said.
"If you want to be sharp-tongued, I don't think you two are equal. Come on, come on, come and have tea! Du Qiniang smiled and beckoned to them.
She was very happy to see the young people so loving, loving and harmonious.
"Yes, mother." The three of them said in unison and sat down around the table.
After tasting a cup of tea slowly, everyone felt that the fragrance between their teeth was wonderful.
As the saying goes, 'sit on a fine paper, cook tea and wine.' The smell of tea in the room made them feel refreshed, and the cordial conversation and laughter between them also added to the harmonious atmosphere.
"That's what it's like to be a family!" Du Qiniang said in her heart, with a relieved smile on her face.
"Since the two of you are both masters of the piano, and it is rare to get together again, why don't you play a song for us?" Ji Yuelian said. She had heard Xiang'er talk about the scene of King Qingping and Shen Xizhen playing together in the plum garden, and she was fascinated by it, and when she saw the two get together today, of course she didn't want to miss the opportunity to enjoy it with her own eyes.
Shen Xizhen and King Qingping glanced at each other, smiled and nodded.
It's a sunny day. It is indeed suitable for burning incense and playing the piano. In addition, they haven't played the piano together for a long time, so it's rare to see each other today. It's a great time to communicate with the piano.
"The Drunken Flower Pavilion is full of flowers all around, how about playing there?" Ji Yuelian asked again.
"It's the perfect fit." Xi Zhen gladly agreed.
So King Qingping and Shen Xizhen went to the bath to bathe, loosen their clothes, and make preparations before stroking the qin.
There are already two guqins on the drunken flower pavilion, one is commonly used by Xizhen, and the other is a new gift from Emperor Guangzhao to Xizhen.
Ji Yuelian also instructed Xiang'er to light sandalwood in the center of the pavilion and around it, and asked everyone to sit down on the seats outside the pavilion.
Shen Xizhen and King Qingping sat in the center of the pavilion.
They had already bathed and changed into loose white clothes, and they sat down facing each other, their expressions calm and calm. It's like a master of the world.
Everyone was amazed when they saw their expressions, and they were even more looking forward to their next performance.
The two glanced at each other, already understanding each other's intentions.
Xi Zhen pursed her lips and smiled. Gently raising his hand, the spring onion-like jade fingers landed on the strings in an incomparably elegant posture, and suddenly, a string of sounds like silver bells slowly flowed out.
This fresh and beautiful melody immediately relaxed the nerves of the listeners.
With the flick of her jade fingers. The atmospheric and ethereal melody slowly unfolds like a curtain. The magnificence and delicacy blend together, making people feel as if they are in the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, where the earth is serene, everything is full of life, and the gods blink their eyes curiously to peek into this mysterious world.
Gradually, the melody began to stir up, like a triumphant song, so that the surroundings seemed to be immersed in a lively and jubilant.
Followed by. The melody becomes soft again, like a song and a complaint. Silence rejoices.
As the last note on Xizhen's side fell, the sound of the piano on King Qingping's side began to sound.
It is also a continuation of the tenderness in her melody, advancing layer by layer, slowly rippling like a tide.
The melody changes again, pushing the gentleness to the extreme, and the sweet feeling lingers around, as if the tacit understanding between lovers.
Xizhen smiled and responded, and suddenly, a wonderful double piano performance was staged.
This time, they didn't have the murderous aura they had in the plum garden, and some of them were all the affection flowing between their fingers. 'Playing the game' is also 'talking', they started a poetic, affectionate and profound dialogue with the sound of the piano, in the ears of others, this is not only a song, but also an expression of unswerving love, so everyone can't help but shed tears of emotion when they listen to it.
In the big tree, a few birds watched motionlessly. Among the flowers, colorful butterflies also flutter to the melody. Such a poetic and dreamlike piano sound, such an elegant and tacit understanding of the two people, and the beautiful scenery of the Drunken Flower Pavilion are perfectly integrated, making everyone seem to have experienced a baptism of love.
"Taiping Qing Words" has clouds: where burning incense, trying tea, washing inkstones, drums, school books, waiting for the moon, listening to the rain, watering flowers, lying high, surveying the party, passing the line, negative Xuan, fishing, painting, gargling spring, cane, worshiping Buddha, tasting wine, sitting, watching the mountain, posting, carving bamboo, feeding cranes, the right is the joy of one person alone. But everyone also felt this qiē in the confrontation between the two.
The sound of the piano fell, and the audience was still immersed in this beautiful melody for a long time.
It wasn't until Shen Xizhen and King Qingping stood up and saluted each other and everyone to thank each other that everyone came back to their senses.
Warm applause immediately rang out in the Drunken Flower Pavilion.
What a match made in heaven!
And all the people secretly admired in their hearts.
After watching this performance, Pepper also admired King Qingping.
In the past, he didn't have the slightest affection for them, and sometimes he was very disgusted. Now seeing King Qingping's extraordinary temperament and talent, the thoughts in my heart have suddenly changed a lot.
There are always some people who are exceptions, such as King Qingping, such as Shen Xizhen.
Their union is so perfect that it's hard to spoil.
Pepper sighed inwardly as she was happy for them.
The next day was Xizhen's rest day, so Xizhen did not enter the palace.
In order to stay with Xizhen, Chu Zihou went straight to Houfu after finishing the morning court.
"Let's go and see the Xi Kingdom after a series of reforms today." Xi Zhen Ti yì said.
"Well, that's what I thought." Chu Zihou readily agreed.
They haven't swum together yet, so what a great opportunity!
So, Shen Xizhen changed into pure white men's clothes, and left the Houfu on a horse with Chu Zihou.
They ascended high up to the top of the city. Looking around from above, you can feel the tranquility of the city surrounded by the castle and the peace and happiness on the faces of the people.
Looking at this city that had been transformed and planned to be extremely comfortable, safe and vibrant, Chu Zihou suddenly felt like he had returned home.
Chu Zihou suddenly realized. This feeling is also what Shen Xizhen hopes he can feel, and this is also the purpose of her trip with him today.
She hopes to experience and feel more with him.
He felt it instantly.
He generously reached out to hold Shen Xizhen's hand, ignoring the different eyes of passers-by, and said, "How much does the outline of the city of Xi Kingdom look like a fenced garden!" It feels like home from every angle. ”
"Yes, this is also the emperor's wish, he regards the subjects of Xi Kingdom as family, and he hopes that they will live safely and comfortably. Live happily and comfortably. ”
"Isn't that my wish? I'm sure you think so too. Chu Zihou stared at her side face and said.
Her eyes were so affectionate when she looked at the houses.
She loved them so much, and he was happy to have such a heart and affection for his fiancée.
He was secretly determined to be on par with her. Contribute to the prosperity of the Xi country with her.
Then, the two went to visit the underground tunnel of Xi Kingdom.
Now, there are many lots of tunnels that have been completed, so they can go straight from one end of the tunnel to the other.
"Suppose there is an enemy invading the east. The people could then secretly move from the tunnels in the east to the south, west, and north. I also designed a large iron gate every 10 zhang away. In this way, even if the enemy follows in, it will be isolated in sections, and it can also achieve the effect of easily capturing the enemy. Xizhen introduced him.
"What a brilliant idea!" He exclaimed.
After coming out of the tunnel, they went to see the people's farmland.
At this time, the rice, melons and fruits are about to ripen, and there is a bumper harvest everywhere.
"If the emperor sees this scene, he will be very happy, and he hopes that the people of Xi will have a good harvest every year." Xi Zhen said to Chu Zihou.
"I know, that's what you want." He squeezed her hand.
"Yes, that's exactly what I want." She said. Suddenly, I was moved. for herself, but also for Chu Zihou's understanding of her.
Next. They rode their horses to the downtown and stood in the middle of the crowded city.
"What do you think of such a bustling market?" Hee-jin asked him.
Chu Zihou knew that this was her intentional temptation of him, so he naturally didn't dare to deal with it at will.
He carefully observed the downtown for a while, and said: "Although there are a variety of goods, the layout of the entire downtown is a bit scattered, so that everyone has to spend a lot of time looking for shops that sell the item, if you can distinguish the area by the type of product, it will not only save the time of searching, but also increase the selectivity of similar items, what do you think?" ”
"That's right, it can also be distinguished by streets, for example, Shuguang Street specializes in selling the Four Treasures of Wenbian, books, calligraphy and paintings, Liuyun Street specializes in selling food, Guangfu Street specializes in selling tableware and furniture, Jinxiu Street specializes in selling cloth, and Haoyin Street specializes in selling musical instruments..."
"Yes, that's what it is." Chu Zihou said with a smile.
"Then, you will give advice to the emperor tomorrow." Xi Zhen said.
"Well, I also want to tell my father that you also have the credit for this construction."
"No, you're your idea, why give me the credit?" Hee-jin smiled and pulled him away.
As the sun set, the two climbed the highest mountain in the capital.
Standing on the top of that high mountain, looking down on the entire capital, they felt as if their whole bodies were empty, and they were only full of comfort.
Caixia reflected the sky red, and also reflected their faces.
They held hands and looked at each other, and their mood was extraordinarily surging.
"Ah Zhen, may I be like the stars and the moon, and the night will be bright, from now on, let us work together, through thick and thin, and see the beauty of the world." He said, gently taking her into his arms.
Xi Zhen's eyes immediately misted and nodded solemnly at him. (To be continued......)
