After nightfall, Qingxi tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and his eyes fell on Taixuanqin, which was placed on the desk, and fell into worry.

The waiter is right, this Taixuanqin does have a great background. This is the famous musician Ruan Xuannian of the previous dynasty who spent his whole life to make and polish the fine piano, passed on to future generations, and after several tosses, entered the palace of the previous dynasty. After the fall of the previous dynasty, this piano was never released in public. I never thought that this piano is now also left in the palace.

The queen's intention to give herself such a peerless famous piano could not be more obvious. When Dad heard the name of this guqin, he was also shocked.

She sighed deeply, got up and walked to the piano, gently held the strings, and the sorrow between her brows gradually deepened.

She knew that her father had said it was so easy to refuse a royal marriage out of peace of mind. If you have a marriage contract now, then the royal meaning has room for maneuver; But now that he has neither a marriage contract nor a proper reason, rejecting a prince's marriage like this will really bring unpredictable trouble to the Ling family. What's more, now the royal family has expressed this meaning so obviously. The Taixuanqin sent by the queen mother made her have no way out.

She pulled up her collar, walked to the window, and slightly pushed the window open a gap, and the spring night breeze instantly penetrated, bringing the cold to make her shiver, and quickly made her mind clearer. She remembered what had happened in the library last night, what the emperor had told her when he stepped into the hall during the day, and the unfriendliness of King Guang when he looked at her and his concern for her marriage, and she felt more and more cold.

The emperor obviously knew that he was in the middle of the matter, and it was for this reason that Xu still started the idea of marriage; Did King Guang also find out something, so he had a performance in the daytime? Later, Xiao Yizheng took away the embroidered handkerchief, which was also extremely unusual, and the embroidered handkerchief seemed to be damaged, could it be that there was something left last night?

All of this led her to come to the conclusion that she and the entire Ling family might not be able to refuse this marriage. Compared with the future of his father and brother and the fate of the entire Ling family, his inner pursuit is not enough to worry about at all.

On the second day, Ling Deyan traveled to Baoding Mountain with various officials and told Qingxi to follow the rules to thank the queen. Qingxi smiled as brightly as she could, and nodded yes, she could see that her father was not sleeping well.

After cleaning up, she took Moon Shadow to thank the Queen Mother.

She left Moon Shadow outside the temple and entered the temple by herself. When Queen Yuan saw her coming, she was full of smiles, kept looking at her, and said gently: "I am also abrupt, I just feel that I saw you at the crown princess yesterday, and I was very happy in my heart, so the piano will show some of my thoughts." ”

She bowed down again and thanked her: "Xie Niangniang loves it, but Taixuanqin is too precious, and the courtiers are very afraid." ”

"I wonder if you're good at stroking?"

"I know a little bit about it."

The queen nodded: "You said that you know a little bit about it, I'm afraid it's humble, yesterday at the Qing Poetry Conference, you were also so humble." The sword is given to the hero, and the famous piano is matched with the beauty. You don't need to be afraid, the Taixuanqin is here to cover up its brilliance, and giving it to you is the best place to go, and I hope you can use it to play a cadenza music. ”

Qingxi thanked him again.

The queen asked her about some ordinary situations, such as what her name was, the situation at home, her usual hobbies, and so on. She answered them one by one, and finally the queen said softly: "That child of Liulang, he doesn't like to be restrained since he was a child, and his heart is free and easy, and he began to go out at the age of sixteen. I know that there are a lot of rumors and speeches about him outside, and some people don't have to pay attention to it. What kind of person he is, you will know after getting along with each other. She smiled and paused: "Look at me, tell you what King Heng does." Okay, okay, after talking for a long time, you can go back and rest. ”

After Qingxi withdrew, he took a deep breath. Moon Shadow hurriedly greeted her, biting her ears all the way back, saying that when she was waiting outside, she heard many female guards discussing Qingxi, her performance at the Qing Poetry Meeting yesterday, discussing the emperor's appreciation of her, and privately speculating that she should marry into the palace.

"Miss, is it true?" Moon Shadow finally asked in a low voice with gossip, curiosity, and expectation. Qingxi glanced at her, and she was immediately silent.

Qingxi sighed again, look, she has no way to retreat.

In the evening, Ling Deyan had not yet returned, but an attendant came to spread the word that he was at Shen Ziru's place, so that he did not have to worry. Qingxi finished her dinner and felt that she couldn't be disturbed by this incident anymore, and she had to relax. This thought was together, and it was difficult to let go, so he said that he would do it: "Moon Shadow, take the Taixuanqin, let's go to enjoy the spring moon in the Jade Pavilion." ”

"Miss, is it inappropriate? Let's keep it low-key! Moonshadow refused.

"What are you afraid of! We have tokens. I didn't say that the Jade Moon Pavilion was forbidden to go. I'll go down the mountain tomorrow, come to this trip, toss this time, the spring moon of the jade pavilion is not rewarded, wouldn't you be panicked. ”

"But?" Moon Shadow was still a little hesitant.

"If you don't go, I'll go by myself." Qingxi said that he was going to hold the guqin.

"I'll go, I'll go, I'll go!" Moon Shadow muttered, "There's such a girl who isn't afraid to cause trouble, I'm still afraid of where to go!" ”

Qingxi took the token and walked most of the palace with his memory path yesterday, and finally walked to the Yuyue Pavilion.

The Yuyue Pavilion is located at the highest point of Baoding Mountain, and there are no patrolling guards at this time.

The willow tops on the moon, the people are quiet and the rhododendrons are red.

Moon Shadow placed Taixuanqin on the stone table in the pavilion, stepped forward to look into the distance, and sighed, "Girl, is this the Spring Moon of the Jade Pavilion?" ”

Qingxi looked up at the full moon, closed her eyes, sniffed the fresh air with a slight scent of grass, and nodded. "You see, the moonlight shines throughout the valley, and the red of the cuckoo spreads with the moonlight, adding to the hazy beauty. And the outline of the mountain peak naturally formed a shadow under the illumination of the moon, as if a woman was bowing her head to enjoy the flowers, such a beautiful and rich picture is the famous scenery of Baoding Mountain: Yuting Spring Moon. ”

Moon Shadow looked at the direction of her hand and sighed heartily, "It's so beautiful! ”

Qingxi looked at her as if she was drunk, walked to the stone table and set up the guqin, put the cushion on the stone bench, sat down and raised her hand, and a note drifted away. A song "Lovesick Sigh", the sound of the piano is tactful, like flowing water, eloquent.

Moon Shadow turned her head from time to time to look at her young lady, and then looked at the beautiful scenery under the pavilion, listening to the melodious piano sound, and feeling the mountain breeze, she felt very enjoyable.

These two people each have their own intoxication, so naturally they don't notice that there is a person standing not far from the pavilion at this moment.
