Chapter 85: The Eve of the Sacrifice to the Heavens
They drove for a day, and after the time, before the time of Shen, they finally arrived at the palace of Lishan.
The emperor ordered that the bath and fast be held tonight, and the ceremony of worshipping the heavens would be held tomorrow.
Shen Yunche and Su Miaojing lived in a small courtyard called Taoxuan.
The place where Shen Yunze lives this time is called Lixuan, and it is also a small courtyard of the same size as Taoyuan.
Shen Yunhong and her princess lived in a small courtyard called Xingxuan.
Shen Yunhao lived in a small courtyard named Liu Xuan. As for Shen Yunhan, he was confined by the emperor, and he did not come to participate.
Shen Yunxun lived in a small courtyard named Bai Xuan.
Su Miaojing looked at these independent courtyards and secretly guessed that it seemed that these courtyards were all named according to the names of the trees, and each courtyard was planted with the same trees according to its name.
Of the three princesses this time, Shen Yunxiang lived in a courtyard called Zaoxuan, together with his husband. Shen Yunmei lived in a small courtyard named Mei Xuan, and Shen Yunying lived in the courtyard of Ming Tongxuan.
The other children of the royal family also lived in a separate courtyard. As for the officials who lived in a courtyard for every two people, so did their wives. There are also the heads of the three major families, who live in a relatively large courtyard, but in different rooms.
Su Miaojing couldn't stay idle, and when she saw that Shen Yunche was called away by the emperor, she immediately ran out of Taoxuan.
Ziyan pulled her and kept telling her not to run around, but she didn't listen at all. After all, a new environment has come, and Su Miaojing wants to see what's interesting. Ziyan was worried about her body and didn't want her to go out and walk around.
Su Miaojing was annoyed by her nagging, and motioned to Xuanzhu with her eyes, and clicked her acupoint, dumb acupoint.
So Su Miaojing looked at Ziyan, "Ziyan, you just wait for me to come back, I'll go first, bye!" He also winked at her, looking arrogant.
Xuanzhu only listened to Su Miaojing's words, and he didn't care about other people's words at all, it was no different from the wind in his ears.
Su Miaojing raised her thumb at Xuanzhu with an appreciative face, and praised him, "Well done, my world is finally quiet." ”
Xuanzhu was also worried in his heart, but he didn't want to make Su Miaojing unhappy, so he didn't stop her.
Ziyan was so angry that his cheeks were staring at Xuanzhu angrily, "Xuanzhu, if something happens to Miss, even if you die a hundred times, it will not be enough to atone for your sins, hurry up and unlock my acupoint." ”
Xuanzhu stood there motionless, glanced at Su Miaojing, and seemed to ask her, do you want to untie it?
Su Miaojing shook her head, with a disgusted face, "Don't, she's too verbose, she chatters in my ear all day long, it's good to let her be quiet." ”
After Su Miaojing finished speaking, she left with Xuanzhu, leaving her alone to stand in front of the door, making a posture of pulling people, motionless.
Although this Lishan is not far from Yining City, she has not been here yet, when she enters an ancient town at the foot of Lishan.
With a look of curiosity, look east and west, she took a string of sugar gourds from the passing vendor, walked behind Xuanzhu, and gave the boss a few copper plates, with a hint of apology on her face.
Xuanzhu's eager expression persuaded her, "Miss, slow down, watch your body!" ”
Su Miaojing, who was hurrying in front, didn't hear it, she saw a group of people surrounding her, and immediately sped up and squeezed in.
She saw someone juggling, with a playful and novel look, she looked back, and saw that Xuanzhu was not behind her, and her heart immediately became uneasy.
Her face was slightly nervous, and she shouted, "Xuanzhu, Xuanzhu......"
Xuanzhu here turned his head and disappeared from his own young lady, and he exclaimed with an anxious face, "Miss, miss, where are you?" Miss, come out quickly! Don't scare Xuanzhu! ”
Xuanzhu saw a woman on the street, so he pulled the other party to see if she was Su Miaojing.
He looked for her aimlessly, and Su Miaojing wanted to squeeze out of the crowd, but it was not easy, she finally squeezed out, and when she saw unfamiliar faces on the street, her heart was even more panicked.
"Xuanzhu, where are you? Come out, don't scare me, you come out quickly. I was wrong, I shouldn't have run around, you hurry up, okay? ”
At this moment, Su Miaojing seemed to see a familiar person, the figure that she could never forget, and his side face.
Su Miaojing ignored her body, looked anxious, ran up quickly, and shouted behind, "Brother Haonan, Brother Haonan......"
When he followed the person in front of him and ran in front of him, he saw the face she was very familiar with, and hugged the other party in spite of everything.
The man who was being held by her looked dazed, only to hear that the eyes of the woman in her arms were already moist, with a crying voice, "Brother Haonan, it's you, right?" It has to be you, you've come to me, right? ”
The man gently tore away the woman in front of him, seeing that her belly was bulging, and her face was nervous, surprised, and surprised, as if he had seen an old man who had not seen him for a long time.
The man carefully took care of the woman, and saw that she was combing a woman's small bun, staring at himself with a helpless face, without any powder on her face, but still charming and charming, especially when she was still looking at each other with this lovely appearance.
Seeing her look at himself with a look of surprise, he really couldn't bear to interrupt her sweet dream.
Seeing her like this, he couldn't bear to deceive her, so he had to reply apologetically, "This lady, I'm afraid you have recognized the wrong person, my name is not Haonan, my name is Shen Yi, shining bright." He also emphasized it in passing.
Su Miaojing heard him say that his name was not Haonan, she shook her head in disbelief, "No, it's impossible, you look exactly like him, I can't admit my mistake." She didn't believe it.
Shen Yi saw that she didn't want to believe it, so he had to emphasize, "Really, I'm not called Haonan." ”
Xuanzhu searched on the street for a long time, and saw some people in front of him surrounding two people, one of whom seemed to be her princess.
He immediately ran up and pulled her behind him, looking at the man in front of him with a wary look, there was a little familiar feeling on his face, but he couldn't remember who he was?
At this time, Shen Yi recognized the other party and said teasingly, "Yo! Xiao Xuanzhu, you have married a wife, and even a son is about to be born. ”
He thought that the woman in front of him was his wife, but he didn't want to guess wrong, it was his nephew.
Xuanzhu listened to the other party's words to tease him, but he didn't get angry, especially when he heard him say that Miss was his wife, he still had a snickering joy in his heart.
Xuanzhu saw that the other party recognized him, and his face was even more suspicious, who was he? How does he know himself?
Shen Yi pretended to be sad and said, "Oops! I haven't seen him for a few years, and Xiao Xuanzhu doesn't know himself anymore, which hurts my heart too much. ”
Seeing this, Shen Yi was puzzled, "Xiao Xuanzhu, I remember that you are not the personal guard next to my four nephews?" How did it come about here? ”
Although he hadn't returned to Yining City for five years, he still knew some news, such as that his fourth nephew should be in the palace now, so as his personal guard, he should also be in the palace.
But how did he end up here? He himself is here, it's normal, after all, it was his eldest brother who forced him to come back, otherwise he would make a holy decree and force himself to marry a wife, he was most afraid that his imperial brother would force him to marry, so he escaped from Yining City, and this time it was five years.
This time he had to come back, otherwise the royal brother would have to announce it all over the world and force him to get married. He guessed that this time it was estimated that he had provoked the imperial brother, after all, he would not return for five years if he was gone.
When Xuanzhu heard what he said, he seemed to think of something? Isn't the person in front of him the Xia King who has been away from Yining City for five years? Why did he come back all of a sudden? I also came to Lishan, is it to participate in the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky? If this is the case, then why didn't he go back to participate in the annual imperial tomb sacrifice before, it was an extremely important event, with the temperament of King Xia, it was impossible to run back because of the sacrifice, probably because of other reasons.
Who does Xuanzhu remember about him? Immediately changed his expression and saluted solemnly, "Meet His Royal Highness King Xia!" ”
At this time, Shen Yi gently tapped him with the fan in his hand, "Xiao Xuanzhu, don't you salute in front of so many people?" Are you afraid that others won't know that I'm King Xia? ”
Su Miaojing looked at them, and understood that he was really not his brother Haonan, and she was both lost and disappointed in her heart.
Xuanzhu respectfully introduced to King Chaoxia, "Your Highness, in front of you is Princess Yue!" ”
When Shen Yi heard this, he was thinking in his heart, yo! This is the daughter-in-law of the five nephews who are ruthless and ruthless, and she is not like him at all!
He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, how could the woman in front of him make the fifth nephew, who was not smiling and had a cold face every day, become the man who was as affectionate as the sea for the princess and had no regrets or complaints in the mouth of the world? He simply couldn't imagine it.
Shen Yi couldn't help but look at the other party a few more times, and the woman at this time was sure that she had seen it wrong, and her face regained her affinity, approachable smile. It seems that looking at her smile, I will also feel a kind of enjoyment, just like the sun, shining so warm, so warm.
Xuanzhu saw that her young lady had regained her demeanor, and the worry on her face faded.
He said worriedly, "Miss, it's getting late, let's go back!" ”
So they went all the way back to the Lishan Palace.
After Su Miaojing came back, she had dinner with Shen Yunche and was called by the emperor again.
Su Miaojing was about to go out for a walk, and she came to the gazebo in the garden.
She wore a blue cape and wore the same lake-blue dress she had gone out today.
Su Miaojing glanced at Ziyan, "Ziyan, go and bring my flute." ”
So Ziyan went back to get the flute, and after a quarter of an hour, she came back again.
Su Miaojing took the flute, and she glanced at Xuanzhu, "Xuanzhu, have you ever heard someone else blow the flute?" ”
Xuanzhu shook his head, he was so big, he had only heard others play the piano and flute, and he hadn't heard the sound of the flute yet.
Su Miaojing's smiling face showed a little more worry, only to see her pick up the flute and put it between her lips, and the melodious and far-reaching flute sound slowly flowed out, which was intoxicating.
The sound of the flute gradually went higher, like a waterfall that went straight down, leading up and down, so that the listener's mood couldn't help but stir.
Su Miaojing closed the last end note, and the sound of the flute stopped abruptly.
Su Miaojing looked at Xuanzhu with joy on her face, "Xuanzhu, how is this song?" ”
I saw that Xuanzhu hadn't commented yet, but he heard a figure coming out next to the rockery, he looked at him with appreciation, clapped his hands, and praised in his mouth, "Madame plays the tune, excellent!" This song should only be in the sky, how many times can I hear it in the world? He praised each other very much.
Xuanzhu looked at each other with vigilance. Seeing that there was no murderous aura in him, he put his heart down and replied to Su Miaojing, "The princess's song is very good, although I am a rough person, I can also hear the kind of nostalgia and respect for friends in the song." ”
Su Miaojing here heard what he said and smiled, of course, this is an extremely famous ancient song, high mountains and flowing water.
It's a pity that in this time and space, there is no such ancient song, mountains and rivers, I think she studied for three whole months before she performed this song superbly.
Su Miaojing looked at the strange man in front of her, she was puzzled, "Who are you?" ”
Xuanzhu answered her question, "Miss, he is Yi Chenmiao, the head of the current violin-making family. ”
Su Miaojing nodded, oh.
Yi Chenmiao approached them, with curiosity on his face, he didn't know that the woman he claimed to be his wife was the princess of King Yue, and he and King Yue were rivals in piano skills. He was amazed and asked, "Madame, is this piece of yours composed by yourself or by someone else?" He asks where the song came from.
Su Miaojing smiled, "The song is ......" A certain woman deliberately paused.
Yi Chenmiao had an eager expression on his face, "Who is it?" ”
Su Miaojing saw that he was so urgent, so she laughed a few times, hahaha!
After laughing, she replied, "This song was composed by my master, and as for my master, he has already composed it." "She can't say that this is what I learned in modern sociology, and this song was composed by Boya for his friend Zhong Ziqi.
Su Miaojing thought to herself, she didn't tell a lie, Boya had indeed become an ancient person buried in the ground.
When Yi Chenmiao heard her words, his face was a little lost, but he thought that it would not be a loss for him to be able to hear such a wonderful song.
Yi Chenmiao's face was a little twisted, what did he want to say? But I'm embarrassed.
Su Miaojing seemed to guess his mind and blurted out, "You want to learn this song, don't you?" "It seems to be a doubt, but it is actually a certainty.
Yi Chenmiao saw that she had guessed his thoughts, he twisted, nodded and shook his head. He felt inappropriate, after all, there was a difference between men and women, not to mention that she was still a married woman, so he nodded and shook his head.
Su Miaojing felt uncomfortable when she saw his awkwardness, and reprimanded, "You are a man, mother-in-law and mother-in-law, what are you talking like, you can say it if you want to learn?" ”
Yi Chenmiao's face was flushed by her words, and the woman in front of him was too ......, and he couldn't find an adjective to describe her for a while.
Yi Chenmiao felt that he didn't think so much, he was just learning music! It should be fine.
So they agreed to come here every day at noon to learn music.
After returning to Beijing, I went to the largest restaurant in Yining City, Fanghua Building, to learn music.
