Chapter 28: Qin Se and Ming (2nd Watch)
"Why?" Concubine Han's cold face suddenly became solemn.
"I want to ask why, too." ”
Concubine Han didn't know what memories she had fallen into, and her fingers traced the mouth of the teacup in circles, and she was in a trance.
Fu Yingran played another song, he hadn't played it for a long time, his fingers were rusty, and he regained his familiarity after practicing for a while.
"Do you know "Luan Tosu"? How about playing a song with me? ”
She hadn't played in an ensemble for a long time.
Concubine Han commanded the old lady, and the old lady bowed and retreated, and soon led the two maids to carry a seer.
Concubine Han took it with both hands as if she was hugging her child, and carefully put Se on the table, and her cold eyes unexpectedly lingered with a little affection.
"Most of the women practice the piano, but few practice it." Fu Yingzhi said.
The qin is known as an aristocratic and elegant musical instrument, and is loved by literati and elegant guests, gentlemen and noblewomen, and is mostly used for background accompaniment during guest banquets.
"My Serby is better."
Concubine Han smiled and put her hands on her face, ready to go.
Fu Yingran also made a gesture, looked at her, and with a slight head touch, the two of them plucked the strings at the same time.
Lingering and sympathetic music floated over Rongping Palace, the old lady couldn't help but be happy when she saw Concubine Han's devotedness and cheerfulness.
Since getting to know this county lord, the pure-hearted concubine has finally gained some vitality, and her life has changed and been lively.
The county lord of Yunsang brought laughter to Rongping Palace, and unconsciously opened Concubine Han's heart.
Concubine Han is really as she said, her Sebi qin is better, like the skills engraved in her soul, easy to come, and the sound is born from the heart.
Her tunes are joyful and sad, parting and courageous, melancholy and memories.
Her Se is emotional, full of memories and affection, and those who hear it are sad and empathetic.
Fu Yingran followed her emotions and sank into it together, gradually weeping down tears, until the end of the song, unable to return to her senses for a long time.
After this song, the aftermath lingers and is unforgettable.
"Qin Se and Ming, it's really a perfect match."
The old lady wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, choked up and laughed.
Concubine Han came to her senses, her eyes were slightly red, and she smiled.
"Except for that person, only today is the tacit understanding with you. Thank you very much. ”
Fu Yingran didn't ask who 'that person' was, she intuitively felt that it was a taboo not to ask.
Concubine Han eased her emotions, stretched out her hand, and affectionately smoothed the hair on her shoulders.
She is a cold person, and she has never behaved so affectionately towards anyone, not even King Yan.
The old lady watched from the sidelines and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
The concubine really likes the county lord very much.
Her eyes were as she looked at the shadows of someone, but her distracted pupils seemed to be looking for someone's shadow through her.
"You, like her, are really my saviors."
Fu Yingran's heart tightened for a moment, and she immediately wanted to ask, 'Who is she', but saw that the concubine just ran her hair in a daze and sighed.
"Your hair is so beautiful, it's black."
"Everyone's hair is black."
She smiled lightly, a smile that was meaningful and contained secrets that she couldn't understand.
"Be careful, you can fall even if you walk."
The old lady reprimanded the eunuch who brought in the dim sum in a low voice, but the eunuch didn't pay attention when he crossed the threshold, and almost fell.
But he reacted quickly, his body was sensitive, and he stabilized his body with a slight rotation, and the snacks in his hand did not fall off at all.
"Does he know martial arts, his movements are so flexible."
The old lady replied, "He is an acrobat at home, and he learned leg kung fu for a few years before entering the palace. ”
Fu Yingran sighed like this, "Is there a chamberlain in the palace who knows martial arts?" ”
"This ......" the old lady didn't answer, and looked at Concubine Han hesitantly.
Concubine Han moved her gaze from Se Shang, looked at Fu Ying's eyes, and replied lightly, "I have rarely heard of it." ”
The words were as concise as ever.
"Yesterday, I went to the Xuande Palace, and I saw that the Xuande Hall was full of forbidden army guards, but the forbidden army guards would not follow after entering the harem. That day in Merlin, fortunately the black tiger did not harm His Majesty, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
"With the middle and permanent attendants, Your Majesty will be fine."
Fu Yingran asked curiously, "Lord Zhongchang knows martial arts?" ”
Concubine Han took a sip of tea, as if she was hesitating whether to say it or not, but after all, she said, "He joined the army and was injured at all, so he entered the palace." ”
Coming out of Rongping Palace, Fu Yingran was still thinking about the martial arts of the Zhongchang Attendant.
Yesterday, the regular attendant in the Xuande Hall was also there, and the position where he was standing was also behind the eunuch who served rice wine, could it be that he was the one who helped her?
Thinking wildly in her head, she didn't look at the road, and walked forward with her head covered, when she was suddenly stopped by Fuyanla, and put her index finger in front of her lips to remind her to silence.
Fu Yingran looked at Fuyan's gaze, and saw two people in the pavilion covered by the bushes, the back of the purple clothes seemed to be the emperor, and the other woman opposite was Shu Jieyu.
The corners of Shu Jieyu's mouth pursed slightly, her expression was solemn, and the atmosphere in the pavilion seemed a little dignified.
The palace people of the two were far away on the palace road outside the pavilion, and no one approached.
The position where Fu Eran was standing at this time was a convenient path behind the gazebo, the road was very narrow, and few people walked on weekdays, so no one noticed her appearing here, and eavesdropped on the conversation between the emperor and Shu Jieyu.
"Today is your birthday, I made your wish, but you advised me not to abolish the queen!"
The emperor's deep voice was angry, but it was quite peaceful, after all, this was the woman he loved the most.
Shu Jieyu clasped her hands together, her fingers in her sleeves and gently rubbed them.
"The mother of the nation was appointed by the emperor. The harmony of the emperor and queen is the blessing of the community and the people. The concubine wishes that His Majesty and the queen will be in harmony with the bird, and the phoenix will fly. ”
"Alright, don't say these high-sounding words, I don't want to hear them. What is her character, and how does she usually target you? How did you oppress the harem concubines? If this kind of person is shy and relegated, it will only be a disaster for the society. ”
Shu Jieyu saw that the emperor's attitude was so resolute, her face couldn't help but be full of worry, and she burst into tears.
"But now that foreign enemies are invading, it is a time of national crisis, and if this incident occurs again, the people will be uneasy, and the people's hearts will be ......unstable at that time."
"You're going to reprimand me too? Are you going to be in politics? ”
The emperor stood up suddenly, and scolded fiercely, and the cool air seemed to be getting thinner and thinner, making people a little out of breath.
Shu Jieyu lifted the hem of her skirt and knelt down, and said in a deep voice with tears streaming down her face, "The concubine doesn't dare to interfere in politics, and the concubine only cares about Your Majesty." The concubine didn't want His Majesty's reputation to be stained, and it would be criticized by future generations a hundred years later. ”
"Shu Jieyu!"
The emperor's warning voice squeezed out of his throat, like frost, smashed into Shu Jieyu's ears, and froze stiffly.
"Your Majesty is the heaven of the concubine, and the concubine does not dare to disobey Your Majesty. His Majesty eats and wears clothes and eats at night, and works day and night on state affairs, and the concubine is all in his eyes. The concubine knows how much His Majesty cares about the well-being and happiness of the people, and cares about the safety of the front-line soldiers. The concubine body just doesn't want His Majesty to do irreparable things because of a momentary anger and regret it in the future. ”
Xiao Suo's back garden was empty and quiet.
Suddenly, a stronger cold wind blew in the air, and a few wisps of coolness slowly fell on his cheeks and the back of his neck.
Fu Yingran shook his head, looked up at the sky, looked at the sparse falling white flowers, and raised his hand to catch it in the air.
It's not rain, it's snow, it's snowing!
