Lin Ying's piano sound came to an abrupt end in his sullen thoughts, and Qiao Cheng and Ling Zi's dance steps had to stop hurriedly with the sound of the piano.

Ling Zi looked at Lin Ying dissatisfiedly and said, "Mr. Chen Guosu is known as the best in piano and painting, why is the song "Xuannu Step" played fast and slow, and the rhythm is weird? ”

Qiao Cheng said coldly: "Where is the weird rhythm? It's just potholes and crumplors. The people of Fanjing, who are really vassally elegant, can actually be called 'piano and painting masterpieces'? ”

Lin Ying opened her clear peach blossom eyes and said innocently: "Su wanted to play well, but I didn't expect the two sisters' dancing to be too beautiful, I couldn't help but be greedy after drinking a few glasses of wine, and I made frequent mistakes, and I hope the two sisters don't complain." If it is a blame, it can only blame the two sisters for being as beautiful as a fairy, and their appearance is better than that of a Xuannu, Su can't help but feel ashamed of himself and envy. ”

Ling Zi was so praised that she lost her temper, glanced at Lin Ying with a smile, and then secretly glanced at Liu Jing. It's a pity that Liu Jing didn't look at them, but turned his head and asked the white-faced Boss Yan: "Brother Yan is in Chen Guofanjing, have you ever seen someone skip this "Xuannu Step"?" ”

Shu'er nodded and said, "I've seen it." ”

When Shu'er first arrived in Linjiang in Chu State, she was adopted by two aunts, Yan Xiao and Song Yun, although the two aunts were in the wine-making business, they did not run a restaurant, and they were not as busy and hard as they were after arriving in Chen State. They are bored for a long time, in addition to going to the restaurant to deliver wine, they often stay at home to raise flowers and vegetables, 100 ~ 10,000 \ small! Talking about tea and leisure, I always like to teach her various skills. The first time she saw "Xuannu Step" was in the small Linjiang courtyard rented by Aunt Yan and Aunt Song. Aunt Song plays the piano, and Aunt Yan dances. Because she practiced martial arts with her brother when she was a child, her muscles and bones are flexible, and her memory and comprehension of movements are extremely fast, so a set of "Xuannu Steps", she only took one year to dance more skillfully and flexibly than Aunt Yan. At that time, she was only nine years old, one year younger than Fanjing Willow Waist, who could dance "Xuannu Step" at the age of ten. She thinks that the fallacy that it takes ten years to practice "Xuannu Step" may only be circulated among the powerless ladies of the boudoir. After learning the Wuyi swordsmanship, she felt that the so-called exquisite and profound "Xuannu Step" was actually not even a flower fist embroidered leg.

Liu Jing said: "It seems that the woman of our Song Kingdom made Brother Yan smile." ”

Shu'er couldn't bear to embarrass the two boudoir ladies who were played by Lin Ying for no reason, and said with a smile: "Where, where are the two girls, they are both soft and outstanding, not to mention that they have noble family backgrounds and double cultivation of talent and virtue, so they don't need to compete with anyone in dance." They can dance tonight, and Yan is grateful to be able to see the two of them. When he returned to Chen Guo one day, he would definitely tell Chen Guo's relatives and friends that the girls of Song Guo were all talented and beautiful, and they were much more powerful than the elegant ladies of Chen Guo. ”

Liu Jing said: "Brother Yan can defeat ten sects and eight factions, Wen can be the richest man in Chen State, and a wonderful mouth is rampant in Chen and Shu, if he can come to Song State as an official one day, he will definitely be able to make a great achievement." ”

Shu'er smiled: "Brother Qiao has won the award." ”

Liu Jing wanted to say a few more words about the current system of adding officials to the Song Kingdom, and it is not confined to the gate valve family, and even the country of household registration, but when he saw the smiling and ruddy person in front of him, a shallow dimple flashed faintly on the corner of his mouth, and he suddenly couldn't remember what to say.

Qiao Ji knew that thanks to this highness who did not recognize his six relatives, the Qiao family was not as good as it was more than ten years ago. The Empress Dowager Qiao Feng is getting weaker and weaker, the Empress Dowager Qiao Jing has a famous position but no real power, and the children of the Qiao family are either convicted and degraded, or they sit on the empty mountain and are idle. The illusion that the Qiao family is dominant, only supported by its own Pyeongchang Palace. And in the Pyeongchang Palace, only his father and brother Qiao Yun are supporting. But the elder brother has no military merits, so he can only hold an inconsequential Yamen civil service, and he has not even been rewarded with the title of viscount of the Pyeongchang Palace. And His Royal Highness didn't take care of the children of the Qiao family, but promoted the children of the poor family more, squeezing a big family like the Qiao family, and made no achievements. Now is it not only necessary to promote the children of the Song Kingdom, but even the recklessness of Chen Guolai's rivers and lakes, His Royal Highness can also look at it? Qiao Cheng could see that His Royal Highness's attitude towards this Boss Chen Guoyan was very respectful, and he clearly wanted to persuade him to come to the Song Kingdom to be an official, and listening to His Highness's intentions, I am afraid that he is not a petty official. Qiao Cheng was annoyed that "Su Ying" made it difficult for her with "Xuannu Step", and she was even more angry that Chen Guo's grass people "Yan Shu" wanted to come to Song Kingdom to be an official in the Song Kingdom.

Qiao Cheng smiled and said, "Boss Yan, since you are grateful to our sisters for performing a dance in front of you, what do you want in return?" I heard that you started by making rouge gouache, and everyone can buy those rouge gouaches, but our sisters are not rare. I don't know if Boss Yan has any talents that he hasn't shown in front of outsiders, and it has also opened the eyes of our sisters? In the future, our sisters bragged to the relatives and friends of the Song Kingdom, and we can't say that the Chen people we have seen are elegant and open-mouthed, and they don't have any real talents, right? ”

Ling Fei felt that it was a bit rude for Brother Su to provoke the two girls to fight for no reason, but now that Qiao Cheng wants to embarrass Brother Yan, he is also happy to see it happen, and fight for his cousin to come back first. Ling Fei said: "I heard that Brother Yan defeated the hall masters of the ten sects and eight factions one by one in the Xiling of Shu Kingdom, and you have a sword with you, presumably your swordsmanship is outstanding. My brother and I are both martial arts people since childhood, why don't you use a set of swordsmanship and let us also have a glimpse of the demeanor of the lord of Xiling? ”

Liu Jing said: "It's a good idea to dance with martial arts. ”

Shu'er got up and said, "Since the two Qiao brothers have spoken, why not?" Then he shouted to Qing Yu and Yi Feng outside the courtyard: "Bring the sword." ”

Qing Yu handed over the Huaiwang Sword with both hands. The sword was unsheathed, and Yi Feng took the sword holster. Shu'er motioned for them to sit back in the banquet, pondering in his heart: "The two sets of swordsmanship I am most proficient in now were both taught by Young Master Zhuge in Xiling. Although the Liuyun Sword is elegant and beautiful, it is not profound. Although the Wuyi sword is complex and exquisite, it is not good-looking, and it is not suitable for practice in this elegant wine house with falling flowers. ”

She suddenly had a plan, looked at Lin Ying, and said, "You play "Xuannu Step" again, just like just now." ”

Lin Ying said, "Okay. And so the harp began again.

Shu'er stepped on the piano sound, stepped on the "Xuannu Steps" that she was familiar with at the age of nine, and waved the most sharp and agile move "Egret Tengyun" in the black-clothed swordsmanship, the dance steps were agile and smart, and the sword flowers were unpredictable.

Liu Jing and Ling Fei saw that the body of this "Lord of Xiling" was soft and rigid, rigid and soft, and they couldn't tell whether it was dance or martial arts, immortal or charming, and couldn't help but look at it and be amazed. They have been practicing martial arts since childhood, but they have never seen such a set of swordsmanship.

It should have been a footwork of hexagrams, but it was changed by Shu'er to no longer be square and follow the rules, but to follow the ever-changing melody and fast and slow rhythm of Lin Ying's fingertips. However, in the face of such swordsmanship and dancing, right and wrong have long become irrelevant.

The sword of King Huai struck down the blooming peach blossoms one after another with an awe-inspiring edge, and those flowers spun and fell to Shu'er's feet, and were raised by her light steps.

Many years later, a poem by Liu Jing, the king of the Song Dynasty, circulated in Kyushu:

The bright moon shines on the mortal world every year,

Red dust grows peach blossoms step by step.

Old people don't know each other,

It is suspected that the Nine Heavens is a mysterious woman.

If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old,

Love and hate are incomprehensible, and they have parted.

Song Chen, Shu, Chu, Qi Wei, Zhao,
