Chapter 298: Qing Ningle
"The crown princess has a heart, so it's better to let the princess play a song for the emperor." Concubine Shu relieved Ruoying.
Wen Xize nodded, and agreed.
Immediately, someone from the palace moved the piano to the hall, Lianzhi stood up, walked to the piano bench in the middle of the hall and sat down, her hands slowly resting on the strings.
Wen Zhiyu stared at Lianzhi, Lianzhi thought about it, glanced back at him, smiled at him, and signaled him to feel at ease.
"The son presents this song for his father, hoping that his father will be blessed like the East China Sea and Shoubi Nanshan." After saying this, Lianzhi began to play, which is a melodious tune with a melodious sound and a peculiar soothing power.
Wen Xize, who was originally a little angry because of Ruoying's incident, calmed down, but the more he listened to this song, the more familiar it felt.
Concubine Rong's face changed slightly, and she looked at Lianzhi with some surprise, why did she play this song?
Qu Hanjiang looked at Lianzhi, and there was something incredible in her eyes, could she have remembered it?
At this time, Wen Zhiyu finally remembered when she had heard this song. That was when his mother Su Yu had not yet died, because Su Yu was not in good health, Jiang Qiandu, as a medical woman, specially researched a song "Qingning Music" for her, and every time she played "Qingning Music", Su Yu always felt better.
Wen Zhiyu occasionally went to her mother's harem and heard Jiang Qianwan play for Su Yu a few times, but at that time she only thought it sounded good, but now it sounds a little melancholy.
Wen Xize looked at Lianzhi who was playing the piano, as if he had seen the scene of Jiang Qianwan playing "Qingning Music" in Suyu Palace more than ten years ago. The sound of the piano more than ten years ago coincides with the sound of the piano in the main hall today, and the people of more than ten years ago also overlap with the lotus stop on the main hall today.
Wen Xize stood up, his voice trembling a little: "Who are you?" ”
Wen Xize's words interrupted Lianzhi's playing, and Lianzhi stood up and stepped forward to reply: "Back to my father, my son is the crown princess!" ”
"How could you possibly make this tune?" "Qing Ning Le" was created by Jiang Qiandu, and she never taught anyone, so after Jiang Qiandu's death, no one could play "Qing Ning Le" again. Wen Xize originally thought that he would never hear this tune again in his life, but he didn't expect that after more than ten years, he would hear this familiar tune again.
But now that I hear "Qing Ningle", all I bring back are Wen Xize's unpleasant memories.
Wen Zhiyu stood up and walked to Lianzhi's side: "Father, the son found a remnant score, and the princess had the heart to study it, so she deliberately completed the remnant score and played it for her father." ”
Hearing Wen Zhiyu's explanation, Wen Xize relaxed slightly: "This song is good, but don't play it again in the future." ”
"The retainers obey." Lian Zhi was a little puzzled, why didn't Wen Xize let her play this song again? Moreover, Lian Zhi glanced at Wen Zhiyu beside him, and he seemed to know that there was something wrong with this song.
Wen Zhiyu pulled Lian Zhi back to his seat, and just after sitting down, Lian Zhi asked softly, "Is there anything wrong with this song?" ”
"You can play it to me later, but don't play this piece in front of your father." Wen Zhiyu hadn't heard Lianzhi play this song in its entirety before, and he didn't expect that Lianzhi would play this song in front of the public today, and he only hoped that Wen Xize wouldn't doubt Lianzhi's identity.
As if to alleviate the displeasure just now, everyone toasted Wen Xize, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, the scene warmed up for a while.
Wen Xize held the wine glass and looked at Wen Miqing: "Miqing, I remember that you are not too young, it's time to discuss marriage." ”
As Wen Xize said this, the entire hall returned to silence.
Wen Yunxi frowned, for some reason, her first reaction was to look at Ji Nanyi.
Ji Nanyi has often appeared in front of people since his health has improved, and it is not surprising that he came to this birthday banquet today.
As if he hadn't heard Wen Xize's words, Ji Nanyi kept looking at the wine glass in front of him, with a shallow smile on his face, but the smile didn't catch his eyes.
Sure enough, Wen Xize looked at Ji Nanyi again: "Ji Nanyi, you are the son of the Pingbohou Mansion, and your net worth and appearance are also compatible with Miqing, how about I marry you and Miqing?" ”
Wen Xize seemed to be asking Ji Nanyi's opinion, but no one dared to refuse.
Wen Yunxi was a little shocked, and a burst of sourness came to her heart, she told herself in her heart not to worry about Ji Nanyi's affairs, but her eyes always glanced at Ji Nanyi involuntarily. Wen Yunxi's hands were sweating slightly, how would Ji Nanyi answer?
Wen Zhiqian naturally noticed Wen Yunxi's abnormality, where is there any reason he doesn't understand at this moment, Wen Yunxi is probably interested in Ji Nanyi!
At this moment, everyone looked at Ji Nanyi.
Ji Nanyi slowly stood up and walked to the center of the main hall, he straightened up, looked at Wen Xize, and said lightly: "Back to the emperor, the minister has no intention of Princess Miqing." ”
As soon as these words came out, they shocked everyone, and Wen Xize himself couldn't believe what Ji Nanyi said: "What did you say? ”
"What the minister means is that the minister doesn't want to marry Princess Miqing." Ji Nanyi emphasized his reply again, Wen Yunxi originally thought that she would be very happy to hear this reply, but she was more worried that Ji Nanyi rejected Wen Xize in front of so many people, even if Pingbohou Ji Ding came forward, he might not be able to keep Ji Nanyi!
Wen Xize looked at Ji Ding: "Ping Bohou, you really raised a good son." ”
Ji Ding stood up and walked to Ji Nanyi's side, and he saluted Wen Xize: "Your Majesty, Nanyi's decision is very supportive. ”
"What did you say?" Wen Xize didn't expect that since Ji Ding also dared to disobey his will, could he Ji Ding not be able to do the opposite?
Ji Ding looked at Wen Miqing and said loudly: "Your Majesty, if you can enter the gate of the Pingbohou Mansion, the minister can not care about her identity, but he must care about her innocence." ”
"Ji Ding, are you saying that my princess is not innocent?" Wen Xize was furious.
Ji Ding's face did not change: "Your Majesty, the minister has heard a little, Princess Miqing and Na Qi Min were very close before, and I heard that the two of them gave each other privately, and the minister was not worried about letting his son marry such a woman and go home." ”
"Ping Bohou, you actually slandered this palace!" Wen Miqing was immediately angry, she couldn't imagine that Ji Ding would dare to accuse herself of innocence in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and everyone in the harem.
Ji Nanyi spoke: "Your Majesty, the princess is wearing a bracelet from the Treasure Pavilion, each pair of colors is different, and the person who buys can only buy one pair." There are many men and women in Beijing who buy a pair of jade bracelets to wear separately to show their sincerity. ”
Everyone looked at the bracelet on Wen Miqing's wrist, and Wen Miqing subconsciously retracted his hand back into his sleeve and hid the bracelet. But Wen Miqing's move is already telling everyone that what Ji Nanyi said is the truth.
"Qi Min's body appeared in the ruined temple that day, and among the items he carried was a pair of bracelets from Princess Miqing's hand." Ji Nanyi continued, "The disgraceful death of the second prince of Qi is well known, and Princess Miqing has collusion with such a person, and the minister will never rest assured. ”
Everyone sighed, everyone knew that Qi Min was good at Longyang, but they didn't expect it to have something to do with Wen Miqing, this Qi Min is really both men and women! At the moment, Wen Miqing really had a private relationship with Qi Min, even if such a person was a princess, he could not enter the gate of Pingbohou's Mansion.
If Ji Ding and Ji Nanyi told Wen Xize about it in private, Wen Xize would definitely want to suppress this matter, and would not change his mind about getting Ji Nanyi and Wen Miqing married. But today, Ji Nanyi and Ji Ding said this in front of so many people, Wen Xize definitely couldn't hold it down, and the marriage could only be stopped.
In this way, Ji Nanyi really doesn't have to marry Wen Miqing, but this also means that the Pingbohou Mansion has completely offended Wen Xize.
Qi Zhaoyu was also very angry when he heard Ji Nanyi's words, Qi Min had been dead for so long, and Ji Nanyi was still here to bring up the old story: "Ji Shizi is really powerful, he even remembers what bracelet the second brother of this princess has." ”
Cheng Weizhe stood up at this time and replied: "Back to the emperor, the eldest princess, it was my father who was in charge of the case that day, and Weichen also had some contact. I didn't expect to meet Ji Shizi by chance, and Ji Shizi had also seen this bracelet, and it should have been noticed today that the bracelet on Princess Miqing's hand and the bracelet of Qi Gongzi were a pair, and then I realized that something was wrong. ”
Concubine Rong didn't expect such a thing to happen, she glanced at Wen Zhiyan, Wen Zhiyan spoke: "What can be proved with a bracelet?" ”
Xiao Yunwei stood up: "Emperor, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the courtier's daughter saw with her own eyes that Second Prince Qi handed over the bracelet to Princess Miqing, and the two acted intimately at that time, it was difficult not to guess." ”
"Miss Xiao saw it with her own eyes, so why didn't you say it then, but only say it now?" Concubine Rong asked.
Xiao Yunwei replied without humility or arrogance: "The courtiers didn't say anything at the time, but the second prince of Qi and Princess Miqing already had the heart to take precautions, and later the second prince of Qi asked to marry the courtiers in public, just to let the courtiers enter the Qi Mansion, and they couldn't say anything about the matter between him and Princess Miqing." ”
"That's right!" Wen Yunxi stepped forward, "Father, the son-in-law heard the discussion between the second prince of Qi and the imperial sister, and notified the imperial brother in time, so that the imperial brother could appear when the second prince of Qi asked for marriage." ”
The word "public mouth" revealed the fact that Qi Min and Wen Miqing had a private relationship.
Wen Xize's face became more and more ugly: "Miqing, are they all true?" ”
