Chapter 12: A stunning beauty has come to Lan Ge
Orchid Pavilion
Xiqi Yang and Feng Zerui came to the elegant seat on the second floor of the Lan Pavilion to wait for Wen Qingyao, and Feng Zerui very obediently brought a pot of "gentleman drunk" to Qing Yao from the first floor.
"It seems that the second prince is indeed afraid of Qing Yao." Xiqi Yang glanced at the wine jug in Feng Zerui's hand, and joked with a smile.
Since he was a child, what Wen Qingyao asked Feng Zerui to do, he has done inconsistently. Because he knew that if he didn't do it, the girl would torture him in a thousand ways.
Feng Zerui put the wine on the table in a chic manner, took Xiqiyang's jade pot and poured himself a full cup, his tone was high and brisk, "I'm not afraid, it's a hobby." Aren't beautiful women as beautiful as flowers used to love? ”
You can't lose on your lips, but you still want to save face.
Xiqi Yang suddenly smiled, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, the second prince loves his cousin very much, and when Qing Yao comes later, he will definitely praise you in front of her, otherwise how can she know your heart." ”
Feng Zerui raised his eyebrows disdainfully, and said, "You still laugh at me, Your Royal Highness, who has always been lonely and arrogant, how can you learn from Qing Yao." Don't think I don't know what you're hiding. He stared at Xiqiyang with an expression that I have seen through you.
Xiqi Yang smiled but did not speak, fair and slender, and his bony fingers held the turquoise jade wine glass and shook it gently, but the "gentleman drunk" in the cup was magically full but not overflowing.
Then the corners of his mouth went up, outlining a soft smile, "What is in my mind, is it so obvious?" ”
"That's not it, except for Qing Yao's girl, I'm afraid that anyone with eyes can see it, she has always been very arrogant, where can you see that you are good for her everywhere."
"I'm afraid that even if she knows, she will pretend not to know." Xiqiyang's eyes dimmed, her expression was lonely, she pretended to be someone she couldn't let go of, and how could he fight for a dead person.
He is a proton from the West, and everyone is alienated and indifferent to him, and they look down on him and look down on him. But Wen Qingyao is different, she never looks at her status when she interacts with people, if you are good, people in the market can also be friends.
Xiqiyang suddenly recalled the little girl with bright eyes and bright teeth in his mind, stared into his eyes and said: Your eyes are so beautiful.
Since then, he has always paid attention to the little girl intentionally or unintentionally, and for the first time in this strange imperial capital, he felt the warmth, and quietly buried feelings in his heart, not daring to sprout.
Feng Zerui's hearty laughter interrupted Xi Qiyang's memories.
"I think it's the prince of Qiyang who is really afraid of Qing Yao, right?" The tone is playful.
The corners of Xiqiyang's mouth pulled up a wry smile, yes, he was not afraid of everything, but he didn't dare to tell her what he was thinking.
That's it, that's it, it's all about fate.
Suddenly, I heard the voices of people downstairs, and it was boiling.
"I heard that Lan Ge doesn't talk about books today, but listens to music instead."
"It seems that a girl has come, and it is said that she can play the piano well."
"I heard that the girl is as beautiful as a flower, like a fairy."
"Is there really such a person? Be sure to see it today. ”
Just as everyone was talking about what they had heard and said, the shopkeeper came to the stage, respectfully saluted the stage, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, today Lange will not listen to books, but listen to music." Next, I would like to invite our Zhaoran girl to play a song for you to cheer you up. ”
As soon as the words fell, the audience was in a mess, with shouts, applause, teasing, and whistling, which was so lively.
I saw a woman in a blue emerald cigarette shirt, her skin was like clotted white jade, her eyebrows were not described, her lips were bright, she was holding a guqin and walked slowly, folding her waist to take a slight step, showing her wrist in the light yarn, her eyes were flowing with spring water, and a royal blue dot emerald pearl hairpin tied up her long black hair, slightly blessed, sat down gracefully, and placed her ten fingers on her legs.
She smiled, Bai Meisheng, and put her outstretched index finger on her lips.
"Shhhh
The people in the audience had already lost their souls, with big mouths, but they couldn't make any sound, as if they had been infected with a demonic disease, and Lan Ge became silent for a moment.
I saw Zhaoran's jade fingers lightly, revealing the slender and white jade fingers, touching the piano surface, condensing and pondering, the sound of the piano suddenly sounded in the Lan Pavilion, the sound of the piano was euphemistic but resolute, and the coupons came, and it was like a mountain flowing water, bubbling charm. The guests in the audience all stretched their necks, looked sideways, smiled, and sighed silently, thinking that it was wonderful.
At the end of the song, Zhaoran got up and saluted and thanked him, and after slowly retreating from the stage, everyone came back to their senses, and the applause and praise were endless, and the Lan Pavilion was noisy again.
Feng Zerui, like those guests, suddenly sobered up, and sighed lightly: "There is no beauty in a thousand autumns, and it is a beautiful woman to the eye." ”
Xiqiyang looked indifferent from beginning to end, looking at the woman in the audience with a leisurely and elegant attitude, and his eyes were alienated and cold.
Feng Zerui poured a glass of "gentleman drunk" and drank it all, as if to calm the excited and uneasy mood. Then he quipped to Xiqiyang: "In the face of such a stunning woman, can Qiyang's son have a spring heart?" Do you think that compared to Qingyao's girl, she is not good anywhere, fierce and violent. ”
Xiqiyang smiled heartily, and his eyes returned to the gentleness they had before. "People with rippling spring hearts, look at everyone's hearts rippling, I'm afraid that the spring heart of the second prince is about to overflow."
"Haha, those who know me, the prince of the world, in a word, this woman, this prince has taken a fancy to it." After saying that, he jumped downstairs and went straight to the backstage.
Xiqi Yang tightened the jade cup in his hand, his eyes clear.
Wen Qingyao left the Wen Mansion and went straight to the Lan Pavilion, and now she just wants a pot of "gentleman drunk" to forget the troubles of the world.
Before coming out, her father asked her to think about it, and told her that her aunt is now extremely unfavorable, and the status of the Wen family is already in jeopardy, and now she is looking forward to Qingyao being able to shine on the lintel.
"The Son of the Divided." The woman's crisp voice rang out.
When Xiqiyang saw the person coming, he was cold, changed his tenderness like water, and said with a smile on his eyebrows: "Why did you come, you are wrong that you have a good show." ”
"Really? What's the show? Wen Qingyao pulled out the stool, sat down, picked up the jade pot and poured wine into the cup.
Xiqi Yang sighed lightly and shook his head, took the jade pot, and filled another cup for Qing Yao. Then he stretched out his finger and pointed to the lobby downstairs, "Look." ”
Wen Qingyao turned her head and looked downstairs, only to see Feng Zerui's smiling flowers and branches trembling behind a beautiful woman, her mouth was talking endlessly, too far away, and she didn't know what he was talking about, but the woman was deliberately alienated and kept silent, she took a step, Feng Zerui followed a step, causing the woman to frown and be displeased.
The second prince of the dignified Tianxuan Kingdom is stalking like a rag in the market at this moment, it is really the first time in his life, Wen Qingyao is very funny to watch, his eyebrows and eyes gradually stretched, and Xi Qiyang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It seems that Ze Rui does like this kind of gentle, demure and beautiful girl." Wen Qingyao said with a grin.
"Yes, although the second prince is a little more smug on weekdays, he is also a person who values love and righteousness. A sincere heart is held in front of her, his mind is clear, and everyone knows it, but I don't know when the girl will know his mind. When Xi Qiyang said that he had a true heart, he stared at Wen Qingyao with burning eyes, as if he was talking about Feng Zerui, and as if he was talking about the woman in front of him.
Wen Qingyao was a little uncomfortable, I don't know if it was because of the wine, or if the atmosphere here was hot and dry, and her face was a little feverish.
She held the wine glass, her voice a little flustered, "She will always know when you see people's hearts over time." When she said this, she didn't dare to look Xiqiyang in the eye.
The cramped and uneasy panic fell into Xiqiyang's eyes, but it looked particularly cute.
Afraid of her embarrassment, Xiqiyang smiled and changed the topic, asking: "What?" What is the Taifu looking for you? ”
Wen Qingyao frowned again, and her face became sad, "He wants me to marry the eldest prince." ”
Xiqiyang's hand placed on his lap under the table couldn't help but clench, and his muscles flared up, but his anger was invisible, and he still raised his glass and drank with a faint expression.
After a while, he spoke: "As the eldest son of Tianxuan, the eldest prince should inherit the throne in the future, and Taifu Wen should consider his career and the glory and wealth of the Wen family, and the eldest prince is naturally the most suitable person." ”
"But I'm human, I have my own mind. It's not the object of their power, and I am not uncommon for me to have any glory, wealth, and power. Wen Qingyao was extremely angry, and her chest rose and fell with excitement.
"And what are you rare?"
"Freedom, like a bird in the sky." Wen Qingyao looked at the space outside the window, looking lonely.
"Then you really want to go to Xiban to have a look, everyone says that the desert is desolate and the yellow sand is all over the sky. As everyone knows, the desert is lonely, the sunset over the long river is also a very beautiful scene, the desert is boundless, if you ride a horse to gallop, you will feel that this world is vast, let yourself walk. ”
Xiqi raised her eyebrows and talked about her hometown with a smile, affectionate, and the country in the desert seemed to be in front of Wen Qingyao's eyes, which also made her yearn for it.
Does it snow in the desert? She really wanted to see it.
