Chapter Seventy-Four: The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix
The palace of the king of Qi is full of purple and red. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Princess Huairou sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, holding a flower in her hand, the petals of which had fallen and scattered on the ground. Princess Huairou was very unhappy, not far away, the green dress looked at her, low body, not daring to squeak.
This Yang Lian, after returning to the capital, came to the Qi Mansion once or twice, and most of the time, he hid in the Yang Mansion, and he didn't know what he was tossing. Princess Huairou was naturally angry, angry why didn't he come to the Qi Palace's mansion to find herself? If she was still very arrogant and didn't care about it before, now she has a very different mind.
After all, she is a woman, and when her identity is clear, she will always be a little shy, how can she take the initiative to find him? Yang Lian came less, but Emperor Zhou E came more diligently recently, and Princess Huairou didn't know why.
Perhaps because of the influence of Emperor Zhou E, Princess Huairou's temperament has changed a little, and sometimes she will hold a book and read it with relish, which is obviously too incredible in Li Jingsui's opinion.
When Princess Huairou was thinking, Emperor Zhou E came again, holding a piano in his hand, this piano is still a little strange, some places are scorched, it looks very weird, with the level of Princess Huairou, naturally I don't know what the origin of this piano is.
Princess Huairou stepped forward, looked at Jiaoweiqin, and asked, "This piano is so weird, the wood is all burnt, where did you get it, and can you still play it?" ”
Emperor Zhou E smiled, this piano has a history, but looking at the appearance of Princess Huairou, she didn't know at all, so she had to explain patiently.
Princess Huairou touched the strings and said curiously: "Is this piano really so magical?" ”
"The princess doesn't believe it, just listen to it." Emperor Zhou E said, walked to the courtyard, put down the Jiaowei qin, carefully wiped the stone table, and covered the stone table with a cloth, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, it can be seen that he cherishes this qin very much.
Princess Huairou walked over, sat down on the stone bench, looked at Jiao Weiqin curiously, and said, "I don't seem to have seen you use it before?" ”
Zhou Ehuang smiled and gently strummed the strings, the sound of the piano was clear and pleasant.
Princess Huairou became interested and said, "Emperor E, you should play a tune for me." ”
"Good!" Emperor Zhou E sat down with a smile, Qianqianyu's fingers stroked, the piano sounded, and it entered the eardrum, Princess Huairou held her cheeks in her hand, and listened carefully, although she didn't understand the sound of the piano, she could still hear the tone, warm and unrestrained and deep lingering, and even better was that Zhou Ehuang played well, Princess Huairou couldn't help but be immersed in it.
Somehow, listening to this song, Princess Huairou remembered Yang Lian, what unfolded in front of her was a scene from the past, and when the song was finished, she was still immersed in it. Suddenly, she realized something, suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Emperor Zhou E, and frowned.
"Emperor E, are you interested in someone?" Princess Huairou asked.
"Why do you ask?" Zhou Ehuang said, but his heart tightened, and his face turned red.
"Haha, my face is red, dare to say no?" Princess Huairou applauded, very proud.
"Ahh Emperor Zhou E was taken aback, and hurriedly touched his cheek with his hand, his face was a little hot, and when he saw through it by Princess Huairou, he couldn't help but lower his head.
"Emperor E, last time you denied it, saying that it was not the sixth prince, so who is it?" Princess Huairou asked very gossipingly.
Emperor Zhou E shook his head and didn't say anything, but his face turned even redder, and he wanted to pack up his things in a panic, but at this time, Lu Sheng suddenly said, "Ah, it's him here." ”
"What?" When Princess Huairou heard this, she turned her head and saw Yang Lian standing not far away, looking at the two with a smile. Princess Huairou's face also turned red, and she hurriedly stood with her hands tied, and said, "Why are you here, and you won't let anyone report it." ”
"I told them not to report it." Yang Lian walked over, saw the Jiao Weiqin on the stone table, and was stunned, and when he saw Emperor Zhou E bowing his head, he said: "Miss Zhou's song Phoenix is really good to play." ”
Princess Huairou smiled: "It turned out to be a phoenix, Emperor E, don't you still admit it?" ”
Yang Lian was far away, and he didn't hear what the two of them said just now, so he couldn't help asking, "Admit what?" ”
Emperor Zhou E's face changed, he hurriedly stood up, and said a little distractedly: "Princess, you can't say it." ”
Princess Huairou smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, I will never tell him." ”
Emperor Zhou E breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glanced at Yang Lian, and said, "Princess, thank you." ”
Princess Huairou shook her head proudly, and then remembered Yang Lianlai, so she asked, "Why are you free today to return to the Qi Palace?" ”
Yang Lian smiled and said, "When I entered the palace today, I have some things to tell you." ”
Emperor Zhou E hurriedly said: "Young Master Yang, princess, Emperor E retired first." As he spoke, he packed his things.
Princess Huairou just wanted to talk to Yang Lian, so she nodded and said, "Emperor E, I'll send someone to see you off." ”
"No need." Emperor Zhou E quickly put away the Jiaowei Qin and soon disappeared.
Yang Lian watched Emperor Zhou E leave in a hurry, and shook his head with a smile.
Princess Huairou said, "What did Uncle tell you?" ”
Yang Lian pursed his lips and said, "When I entered the palace today, His Majesty told me about the marriage. ”
Princess Huairou became nervous, clenched her fists, and said, "What's the matter?" As he spoke, he lowered his head again, thinking to himself, how can he look like he hates to marry?
Yang Lian groaned slightly and said, "Your Majesty wants to plan to get married in the near future, but I refused. ”
"Huh?" Princess Huairou was taken aback and asked, "Why?" ”
"Huairou, the northern Xinjiang has been quite unquiet recently, and the thieves have a great tendency to invade Chuzhou, as the envoy of the two states of Haichu, I naturally want to go to defend against the enemy, otherwise, if the thieves break Chuzhou, it is very likely to go south along the canal and harass the eastern capital." Yang Lian said that the eastern capital in his mouth is Guangling, which is located north of the Yangtze River.
Princess Huairou pursed her lips, very unhappy, why is this thing endless? , and said, "Is this what my uncle meant?" I'm going to ask him. As he spoke, he was about to walk out of the stone pavilion with great momentum.
Yang Lian grabbed her, shook his head and said: "No, that's what I mean, if you are swaying today, Datang looks prosperous and powerful, but in fact there are many crises, I also want to take advantage of my youth to sweep the Quartet, now the situation in the north is special, I can't wait any longer." After I went to Chuzhou, I went back to Jinling for a year and a half at most, pacified the group of thieves, and returned to Jinling. ”
Princess Huairou bit her lip and didn't say a word, Yang Lian persuaded for a while, and Princess Huairou showed a smile on her face, looked at him with some worry, and said, "The battlefield has no eyes, you have to be careful." ”
"Don't worry, I haven't married yet, how can I be willing to die?" Yang Lian smiled.
The two talked for a while, Yang Lian said goodbye and left, Princess Huairou sent him out, looked at Yang Lian away, his eyes dimmed, do men put their family and country first?
Yang Lian rode a war horse and walked slowly on the street, now is the most critical time, he naturally will not give up, he has already thought of a way to deal with Guo Wei in the future. Therefore, the development of Chuzhou in the past two years is very important, and every day is precious.
Yang Lian planned to leave within these two days, and as for the boatsmith that Li Jing promised him, he could rush to Haizhou later, and the boatsmith brought by Chen Tie could go up for a while. When Yang Lian was thinking about it, he heard a commotion in his ears, and turned his head to look over, it was actually Emperor Zhou E.
Zhou Ehuang stood there, distracted, on the ground, the Jiaowei qin broke in half, and the good guqin actually broke. This is something that Yang Lian brought back from the Han Kingdom, not to mention the value, just this friendship is worth cherishing by Emperor Zhou E, not to mention, it was given by that person.
Emperor Zhou E was cowardly, and when Jiao Weiqin was broken, he didn't dare to argue with that person, looking at the broken Jiao Weiqin and weeping.
Four or five steps away from Emperor Zhou E, a man who looked like a ranger was looking at Emperor Zhou E, with two freshly picked flowers on his head, and his lips were a little ruddy.
"Little lady, your piano broke me, how do you say to compensate me?" The man said, a pair of thief eyes looked at Emperor Zhou E, and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, this little lady has long fine skin and tender meat, and her appearance is delicate, and the young master has a good mouth today.
Emperor Zhou E obviously had nothing to do with this scoundrel, so he took two steps back when he heard the words, and said, "You, you broke my piano, and you ...... it."
"Broke your love?" The man smiled and asked, "What love?" ”
Empress Zhou E took two steps back, looked at the man vigilantly, and said, "You, what are you going to do?" ”
"Little lady, you said that I broke your love, and I am ready to compensate you." The man continued to press towards Emperor Zhou E.
The people around pointed and pointed, but they didn't dare to step forward, this ranger is tall and strong, and he looks quite powerful, so the people will ask for their own hardships and provoke the ranger? The ranger stepped forward step by step, and his two hands stretched out, forcing towards Emperor Zhou E.
Emperor Zhou E was very frightened, at the foot of this son of heaven, why did there repeatedly appear as a prodigal son? The security of this capital is too bad. Emperor Zhou E was about to retreat to the wall at this time, and his soft back had already pressed against the wall, but the ranger still kept stepping forward, only three or four steps away from her.
"Little lady, where to go?" The ranger said, pounced.
Emperor Zhou E let out a low breath, closed his eyes, his body trembled slightly, and he was extremely scared in his heart, however, with the voice of the ranger, time seemed to freeze, and the ranger did not pounce, but heard the ranger's painful moan.
Emperor Zhou E opened his eyes curiously, and what came into his eyes was a familiar figure grabbing the wrist of the ranger and pressing it hard, the ranger was restrained, and his face was very painful. Emperor Zhou E almost cheered, it was Yang Lian who saved her.
The ranger was restrained, saw Yang Lian's tall figure, and reluctantly shouted: "Stop, do you know who I am?" ”
"I don't know who you are, but I know you'll soon be a corpse." Yang Lian said, his wrist was forced, and he grabbed the palm of the ranger, and he could already hear the crisp sound of the joints.
"Ahh The ranger screamed miserably, his fingers seemed to be broken, which made him very painful, and he wanted to say a few cruel words, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he had no strength, and hurriedly said: "Ah, lighter, lighter." ”
"Okay, lighter!" Yang Lian said, and with a force, he broke one of the rangers' fingers. (To be continued.) )
