Chapter Thirty-Eight: Playing the Piano and Saying Love
At the beginning of March, Ao Bai attended the meeting of senior leaders of Jinguo for the first time. This is the day on which he and Dorgon are announced to be in the white flag. While listening to Nurhachi's speech, he had been secretly observing the reactions of the four major beylers.
Dai Shan's reaction was the most bland, and he smiled and gladly accepted the Khan's decision. Huang Taiji was silent on the surface, but his right eyelid jumped up and down a few times from time to time, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Amin kept pulling his eyelids, and there was an unfathomable smile on the corner of his mouth. The most overreacted was Mang Gurtai, who squeezed his eyebrows and clenched his fists, as if he was ready to go berserk and kill at any moment.
Ao Bai wondered, what did Mang Gurtai want to do? Dolgon's appointment as the king of Khan may not be bad for him, is it so uncomfortable?
Mang Gurtai suddenly raised his hands and stood up from his seat, with a serious expression, his hands in front of his crotch, and he stood like a football player who was about to defend the opponent's free kick in a row. Nurhachi was about to speak to the crucial point, but he stood up and interrupted the Khan's speech at once. The atmosphere in the hall became tense, and all the ministers and elder brothers looked at him in surprise, not understanding why he had such an inopportune behavior, did he not want Dolgon to lead the banner alone?
I saw Mang Gurtai say in pain: "Father Khan, I'm not feeling well...... I had a lot of diarrhea today...... Can you allow me to ...... first? Retire ......"
The hall was instantly crooked.
Looking at Nurhachi's embarrassed appearance, Ao Bai couldn't help but laugh, and called Tai Ge mighty in his heart!
It was at this dramatic meeting that Nurhachi announced that Dorgon would become the new commander of the white flag, and that Ao Bai would be the deputy commander, and that the original banner owner, Dudu, would be transferred to the red flag.
Previously, Nurhachi had already given the two yellow banners and forty-five oxen to the three Dolgon brothers, and said that if Dordo took over his own soldiers after his death, the strength of the three brothers on the table was unmatched.
Out of the main hall, Amin greeted him and said, "Dolgon, congratulations on becoming the banner master. ”
Dolgon said, "Thank you, second brother. ”
Amin put his hand on Dorgon's shoulder and smiled, "Work hard, and strive to be the first in the next battle." ”
"Second Brother Xie has said it."
As soon as Amin left, Dolgon said happily: "Second brother rarely takes the initiative to talk to me, and it seems that he has begun to look at me well." ”
Smart people can see that Dolgon has the most development potential, and Amin has no chance of becoming the Khan King, so he wants to get closer to Dolgon. Ao Bai Xindao.
After entering the inlaid white flag, the two finally "graduated" in the school, and Ao Bai had more time to accompany the beauties at home.
Ao Bai somewhat understands why the guards in the palace can't beat him, once he starts a family, he will inevitably have some slackness and reduce his enthusiasm for martial arts. There is a knife on the head of the color character, and he can't keep his will firm even after practicing the nine-character mantra seal. Rather than practicing martial arts, he prefers to practice weekends with Phoenix, and he never gets tired of it.
More recently, he has also developed an interest in music.
Hai Lanzhu and Yao Qianyu have to play a few songs every day, which seems to have the meaning of learning piano skills. In such an atmosphere, it is easy for others to be driven.
Ao Bai and Dolgon studied the piano together, and "piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting" have always been regarded as the only way for literati to cultivate their self-cultivation. Nurhachi asked the elder brothers to learn Han culture, and the piano was in the first place, which was of course a must-learn course.
He suddenly had an idea. The current music tunes are very simple, and the lyrics sung are all adapted from poems, which is not enough to rhyme and not enough to passionate. He still remembers a lot of pop songs, and if they were sung in this era, would they be worshiped as the god of songs? Poetry is not good for him, singing is a good way to become a talent. The last time he sang in the Horqin grassland, he was confident in his voice.
Another reason why he wanted to study music was Yao Qianyu's attitude towards him. During this time, Yao Qianyu was very friendly to several girls, to Dolgon and even to Duoduo, only when he saw him, he always had a cold face and regarded him as a plague god to hide, which made him quite depressed.
The more Yao Qianyu was like this, the more worried Ao Bai became. The third chapter of the covenant is just a verbal warning, Yao Qianyu is good at kung fu, in case of a bloody case in the palace one day, he must go crazy. He thinks that he must make Yao Qianyu his own before he goes to Mongolia, at least he doesn't hate him, this task is difficult.
As a result, Ao Bai reduced the time spent practicing, and based on the memory of his previous life, he composed a tune. I also found time to practice for a while. If the two of them become bosom friends in music, Yao Qianyu will not harm the people around him.
In the evening, Ao Bai took the piano and went into the back garden. In ancient times, the night was very boring, there was no TV, there was no electric light, and if you didn't hold the lamp to boil oil and read, you could only go to bed early. He thought of practicing the piano in the pavilion, but when he arrived at the place, he found Yao Qianyu sitting in the pavilion again.
Yao Qianyu saw him and was stunned: "Why are you here?" ”
Ao Bai had a ghost in his heart, and said embarrassedly: "The weather is good today, I'm here to practice the piano......"
After speaking, he took out a few candles from his arms and lit them, and the pavilion suddenly brightened.
Alas, I hadn't thought of this before. When the weather is good, candles are lit at night, and it is very romantic to have an outdoor candlelight dinner, but I didn't expect the first time to be with Yao Qianyu.
"You really know how to play the piano?" Yao Qianyu looked at Ao Bai, and suddenly felt that his image really didn't look like a person who played the piano, and unconsciously showed a smile, and under the reflection of the candlelight, a trace of blush climbed up his cheeks, charming and charming.
It's the first time I've seen Yao Qianyu smile, and it's so beautiful that my heart is puffing...... It's a good sign, it seems she's getting in here, and she doesn't particularly hate me, he breathed a sigh of relief, it wasn't in vain tonight.
Yao Qianyu saw him looking at him in a daze, hurriedly lowered his head, and said, "You play slowly, I'll go." ”
Ao Bai wanted to play the piano and talk about love, but it was better to choose a day than to hit the day, and hurriedly said: "Wait, that ...... I play very badly, and I haven't practiced for a long time, Phoenix often praises you for playing well, can you teach me? ”
"Your excuse is so bad, if you want to learn the piano, you can find Hailan Zhu Gege, why are you looking for me?" Yao Qianyu returned to her cold appearance.
Ao Bai sighed, "Well, I'm here to find you." I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed to say that. I don't understand, why do you usually hide when you see me? You are very polite to others, but you are cold to me. Did we have some misunderstanding? Do you still blame me for killing someone on Kyaw Wah Island? ”
Yao Qianyu's little hands clenched, and suddenly tears rolled in her eyes, and said, "Speaking of misunderstandings, I should apologize to you for what happened last time before." ”
Ao Baiqi said: "I'm sorry, I can't forgive you, because I don't remember you ever doing anything to be sorry for me." ”
Yao Qianyu said quietly: "I heard Hai Lanzhu and Dolgon say something about you. ”
"What did they say?"
Yao Qianyu lowered his head and said lightly: "I heard Dolgon say that the Khan King originally ordered to wash Juehua Island in blood and kill us all. You went on your first expedition, without an official position, but you risked angering the king of Khan to persuade him to change his mind...... If it weren't for you, probably everyone on the island would have died...... I shouldn't have called you a bandit...... Why didn't you tell me that night? ”
Long live understanding! Hearing this, Ao Bai felt that his whole body was comfortable, and he smiled: "If I tell you that I don't like war at all, I don't have the slightest hostility towards the Han people, and I look forward to world peace every day, do you believe it?" Even if you believed it now, you wouldn't believe it that night. ”
Yao Qianyu sighed: "I believe, I think you are a gentleman now." You are not the same as those savage Jurchens. ”
Ao Bai smiled when he heard this, and said, "You said that the Jurchens were barbaric, and I can't refute it." Most of the people in this country are poor, they don't have the same good luck as me, they don't have an education, they don't even know how to play the piano, they don't even know a few words. They are not good at production and want to survive, so they go to robbery. I've long felt that this is wrong, but my personal power is too small, and it is difficult to change their minds. You know Dorgon, he is also a good man, if he becomes the king of Han in the future, we work together, I believe that the Jin Kingdom will change, and the Jurchens will also change. ”
Yao Qianyu sighed, thoughtful.
Ao Baixiao asked, "Do you have any tunes you want to hear?" I want to prove that I can really play the piano...... First of all, Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong-Angry Hair Rushing to the Crown" is not good, others will hear it, and I will be killed. ”
Yao Qianyu smiled slightly: "I don't have anything in particular I want to hear, you can play your best at it." ”
Ao Bai took a deep breath and said, "What I'm best at is not playing, but singing." I'll play my own tune, but you wrote this song. ”
Yao Qianyu snorted: "Why are you writing songs for me...... Deliberately entertaining me, isn't it? ”
Who would entertain a woman of good character and good looks like you? With my gentlemanly style, it's too late to love. Ao Bai smiled: "I've always thought about how to let you integrate here as soon as possible, forget the pain, and live happily." How can I keep you from seeing me as an enemy? But I hadn't seen you laugh until tonight. This song is my heart's content. ”
He plucked the strings and sang slowly: "I don't have anything, just a little noisy, if you feel lonely, I will bring you excitement, go around for you, it's no big deal, I just want to see you smile." Actually, I'm very annoyed, but you can't see it, if I'm not happy, I'm afraid that you will turn around and run away, like someone, you must make him believe that this world is so beautiful. To everyone, say it's okay, you don't need to know my heart and my feelings, as long as I'm good to you, do you want such tenderness. In fact, I will know who you love me like and what role you play, I don't care if I'm happy or not, I forgot whether I'm tired or not for you to be happy. In fact, who do you love me like, I can give any expression, and I will learn to shed tears in you. ”
After Ao Bai finished singing, she panicked when she saw Yao Qianyu, and her tears flowed like a dam opening......
