Chapter 4 Prince Jue

"Oh? Aren't you a better hunter at swords? If you are embarrassed, I will not spare you! The emperor's words slowly blurted out, loud and loud, echoing and circling in the spacious and bright Weiyang Hall.

"Father, Erchen has a lot of experience in listening to the Moon Pavilion recently, since there is a princess of the Han Kingdom here today, and it is a Lantern Festival event, there is already King Kang's brother borrowing flowers to offer Buddha first, Erchen is a son of man, how can he not do something?" Saying that, the Prince of Xuanguo had already gotten up from the seat on the emperor's right hand side, and after a few thorough manners, he came to Gongyifei's side in half a good step, and next to Gongyifei, someone had already prepared another seat waiting for the arrival of this second noble person. Gongyi raised her head and looked at the crown prince, just now with King Kang, that is, Xuanyuan Qi, played a trick in front of the emperor like a monkey, and did not take the prince seriously, so at this time she can take a good look at what the future monarch of Xuanguo is like.

A glance at the years, a hundred years to forget. Gongyi Fei never thought that there was such a handsome and beautiful boy in the world.

The prince of Xuanguo, in a unique way, wore a blue lotus-colored dress. Although he is not yet a weak crown, and he looks only two or three years older than Gongyi, his hair is also tied on the top of his head by a jade crown. Unlike King Kang, who is dressed up, the prince of Xuanguo does not seem to have too many ornaments on his body. On his waist, a white jade flute with a simple cyan long silk is the only decoration, and it is also the instrument he intends to play with Gongyi Scarlet. The prince's elegance is peerless, and there is no need to describe it too much, the two words "unparalleled" are enough.

"Scarlet Princess, my name is 'Xuanyuan Xuan', I don't know which song you want to play?" Xuanyuan said, and took out the white jade flute from his waist and held it in his hand. "The courtiers are not talented, when they first arrived in your country, they don't know the terroir of the Xuanguo, as for the piano art, they have already been slack, and they can't bear Guangling, I don't know how the song "South Wind" is?" "The smoke of the south wind can relieve the sorrow of our people; When the south wind blows, it can help the wealth of our people. The scarlet princess is really good at the piano, and I will definitely ask for advice in the future. Xuanyuan Qi said, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a smile was raised, and he sat down and turned to face the emperor. And Gongyi Fei was also ready, sat down again, and began to play the piano.

"In the past, Shun made a five-string piano and sang "South Wind"." Although the song of "South Wind" was composed by the legendary Emperor Shun, it has also been passed down from generation to generation, and later generations are the icing on the cake. Among the many later generations, the "South Wind" of the Han Kingdom is the most famous. It is said that the first heaven and earth ritual after each generation of monarchs of the Han Kingdom succeeded to the throne was that the monarch personally stroked the qin in the Han Palace, in order to show the heart of the benevolent monarch.

The sound of the piano moves, and the sound of the flute begins. The phoenix roars and the dragon roars, and the Han dance falls into the city. Gestures, overturning the sea of clouds. Different from the war dance of the Xuanguo Kingdom, the delicate willows of the Jiao'e turned to be affectionate, which made the ministers pay attention one after another, but they didn't care so much that the musician at this time was the prince of the dynasty and the princess of the Han Kingdom.

The song of Gongyi ended soon, and when the sound of the piano stopped, everything was silent, and he inadvertently glanced at it, facing the narrow and somewhat uplifted Danfeng eyes of the prince Xuanyuan, those eyes were in a half-open state at the moment, and the contract bent eyebrows, there was no doubt that the owner of these eyes was now smiling at her. Gongyi turned her head and stood upright, no one noticed that her eyebrows were raised again, and in the blink of an eye, she looked as usual, and bowed to the emperor according to the courtesy. The prince beside him also hurriedly got up, and the white jade flute in his hand was also put back on his waist, according to the etiquette. Unexpectedly, what was waiting for the two was the silence of the emperor, and the joy just now seemed to disappear in an instant. At this moment, in the silent hall, it seemed that only the vivid hearts could be heard beating faster and faster in the body of their master.

"The prince and Sister Scarlet's flute companion Qin Sui, it's so good!" Xuanyuan Qi was the first to clap his hands and break the silence. He turned his head to look at the Emperor, the smile on his face still bright. "Uncle Huang, speaking of which, Qi'er left the palace three months ago, and even didn't have time to come back to participate in the Buddha Porridge Festival in Lingfeng Temple on West Street, please don't blame it, Qi'er will punish herself for a cup first." As he spoke, Xuanyuan Qi raised a special little lord on the table and drank the fruit wine inside. "Haha, you kid, you're shirking cleanly! No, I heard the master say that you have not only missed a lot of homework in March, but even the homework that you haven't done before has been lost, so I will bother the princess of the Han Kingdom to help me look at this bastard boy and give me some pointers. The emperor laughed, summoned Xuanyuan Qi forward, said a few words half-reprimanded, and at the end, patted Xuanyuan Qi's head again and motioned him to go down.

The ministers in the Weiyang Hall came to life again, and the cups and lamps were staggered, as if they had just been cast a fixing spell just now. After that, Gongyifei and the prince also re-seated separately, but the emperor's eyes flashed on the prince and Gongyifei.

Here, Xuanyuan Qi, who had just sat down, felt a little strange, why did the scarlet sister next to her sway there? Why are the pillars of Weiyang Hall also shaking? I was so dizzy, I was suddenly sleepy, thinking about it, Xuanyuan Qi gradually lowered his head, and his body began to swing back and forth uncontrollably.

Gongyi, who noticed Xuanyuan Qi's strange appearance, thought that he was still young, and suddenly a glass of wine just now, although it was not a strong drink, it was enough to make him drunk. Gongyi called softly, "Ah Qi." Xuanyuan Qi was a little sober at this time, and turned his head in response. Haha...... "The little beauty hid her face and smiled, it turned out that Gongyi Fei saw Xuanyuan Qi's true face of Lushan. The face is like a peach blossom, and it is a beauty, but now it is particularly suitable to describe Xuanyuan Qi.

"Sister Scarlet, Sister Scarlet, you are so good...... "The swaying movements of the small body became bigger and bigger, and the mouth began to babble nonsense." Your Majesty, King Kang is too strong to drink, please forgive me. Behind the two, Liu Chu, who was sitting farther away, also didn't care about the courtesy of the monarch and ministers in time, and stepped forward and hurriedly retreated with Xuanyuan Qi. When the figure of this master and servant disappeared behind the screen, Gongyifei also planned to get up with it, wanting to retreat with Mrs. Yan, who was sitting next to the screen, away from the night banquet that made her uneasy, but she couldn't do so.

"The princess of the Han Kingdom came to Xuanguo at the beginning of today, and she took care of it a lot, and I asked the prince and King Kang to accompany you to take a good look at the scenery of Yecheng, the time is not early, a glass of wine, I don't know if the princess can drink?" After that, a chamberlain has brought a lacquer plate to the front of Gongyifei, and in the center of the lacquer plate, there is a small celadon cup the size of two fingers. Gongyi glanced at the emperor, but caught a glimpse of Prince Xuanyuan glaring at her and telling her not to drink this glass of wine. "Xuanguo is thousands of miles, Yecheng is extensive, and the courtiers and princesses have to bother a lot here." Although Gongyi clearly saw Xuanyuan's small movements, she still reached out and picked up the wine glass, raised her head, and drank it all, not half a drop left.

Got up, slowly retreated, and walked out of the side door of the Weiyang Hall from behind the screen, and the moment before the door of the palace closed, the laughter of the Emperor Xuanguo and the ministers could not wait to swing out.

"Haha, Your Majesty, the piano skills of this princess of the Han Kingdom are really much better than the top brand of the Drunken Flower Building on Nadong Street......"

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't get drunk today, you won't return!"

Gongyi listened, her eyebrows frowsed, and when she closed her eyes, she felt a snowflake fall on her eyelashes, and the snowflakes immediately turned into droplets on her cheeks because of her body temperature. "Aunt Yan, let's go, go to King Kang's Mansion."

In the middle of the night, the snow became unusually heavier, and the two of them, one master and one servant, walked lonely like this, until outside the palace, and then got into the carriage that Liu Chuwei had prepared for the two.

But what Gongyi didn't know was that at the moment after she left the Weiyang Palace, a handsome shadow of Qinglian appeared next to the white jade fence of the Weiyang Palace, watching the departure of the master and servant.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Emperor will let ......"

"I see."

Xuanyuan subconsciously touched his right wrist, which was stinging as soon as it was rainy, rainy and snowy, and went straight back to Weiyang Hall, returning to the position where he had to sit.

"Gongyi Scarlet, a good name......"
