Chapter Twenty-Five: The sound of the piano leads confidants
Zhao Wuyan is not the mastermind behind the scenes? Ah Li's eyes widened, not knowing why Li Zhenzhen was so sure.
Li Zhenzhen smiled slightly, "Ah Li, I suddenly know now why Brother Junyan put you by my side alone. ”
The bright moon is bright and clean, and the white moonlight pours on her body, making people feel extraordinarily soft and quiet.
Ah Li looked at her like this, and couldn't help but ask, "Princess, why?" ”
"I'm not going to tell you." Li Zhenzhen smiled lightly, and then drifted away, leaving Ah Li there in a daze.
Li Zhenzhen didn't want to tell Ah Li directly, Su Junyan stayed by her side because she was good at martial arts, but her mind was extremely simple. Because of this, she will probably always be loyal to herself and have no other thoughts, and even if she has, she will be seen through by herself at a glance.
After a long time, Ah Li reacted and immediately chased after him, "Princess, wait for me!" ”
By the time we reached the garden, the feast had already begun.
Spring flowers are in full bloom, adding a touch of hazy beauty in the moonlight. The evening breeze blows, and the sweetness hits into the nose, which makes people feel refreshed. During the banquet, the beauties were present, and they were staggered, but it was a beautiful picture.
Li Zhenzhen looked at the woman sitting on the main seat, and saw that she was about twenty-four or five years old, dressed in a purple palace dress, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and a sweep of moth eyebrows, but she was also a rare beauty.
Ah Li reminded on the side, "Princess, this is the eldest princess." ”
The eldest princess Zeng Susu is the concubine of the Guogong Mansion, with a gentle figure, and she once danced in the city.
Li Zhenzhen stepped forward and saluted, "Zhenzhen is late, please don't blame the imperial sister-in-law." ”
Hearing this, Zeng Susu said with a smile, "Princess Chang'an said that it was my honor, it is my honor for you to come to my house today, why blame me?" ”
"Zhen Zhen thanked the imperial sister-in-law."
"Princess Chang'an, please take a seat."
Li Zhenzhen and Ah Li took their seats, and then began to carefully observe the guests around them. In addition to the famous ladies in the city, there were also several male guests. This is a bit interesting, it seems that this Zeng Susu wants to be a matchmaker.
It's just that I don't know which pair she wants to match. Anyway, it has nothing to do with her, she still drinks silently and just wants to be a spectator.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zeng Susu to propose that all the famous ladies present perform their talents. For a while, several showy ladies couldn't wait to perform.
Li Zhenzhen couldn't help but ask Ah Li behind her, what was the identity of the male guests present.
Ah Li whispered in her ear, "The man in green shirt is Chen Antai, the little marquis of the Hou Mansion, the man in white is Gao Liluo, the son of the Bachelor's Mansion, and the man in blue is Zeng Ziqian, the second young master of the Guogong Mansion, and the younger brother of the eldest princess. The rest of the people, subordinates are not very clear. ”
Li Zhenzhen laughed, Zeng Susu's appearance today is probably to be a matchmaker for her younger brother. It's just that I don't know which noble girl they fancie.
Now the fourth prince and the fifth prince are still young, and the eldest prince, the second prince and the third prince are all married to their own wives, so the famous ladies present also know in their hearts that the man sitting at the banquet at the moment is the hot man in the city, so if they have a mind, they don't need to be pointed, they have already worked hard to attract them.
They are all carefully cultivated daughters of various prefectures, and they are naturally versatile, and this banquet is not lonely at all. Therefore, Li Zhenzhen watched coldly, eating delicious pastries while watching these women perform, which was interesting.
Suddenly, a woman in a yellow shirt held a guqin, walked in the center of the stage gracefully, and said softly, "The princess, it's graceful and ugly." ”
Ah Li whispered in Li Zhenzhen's ear, "She is Gao Wanwan, the third lady of the Bachelor's Mansion." ”
After that, Gao Wanwan stroked the piano with her hands, and the sound of the piano came out, which was pleasant.
Li Zhenzhen is a person who understands the piano, so she couldn't help but look at her twice. I saw that she was petite, with a gentle look in her eyes, and she was born well. It's just that although her piano sound is beautiful, she is still too young after all.
However, the women in this city, raised in the boudoir, are all raised according to the requirements of the lady, and it is difficult to have a sense of grandeur. Therefore, it is not bad that she can have such attainments.
After the song, the applause was thunderous, and the applause was endless. Li Zhenzhen followed the voice and looked over, it turned out to be Chen Antai, it seemed that his heart was flying on her tonight.
Zeng Susu said with a smile, "Miss Gao, your piano voice of the moving pool really deserves its reputation. ”
I saw Gao Wanwan stand up and salute Zeng Susu, "The eldest princess, Wanwan is just throwing bricks and attracting jade this time." ”
Zeng Susu was interested, "Oh, I don't know why Miss Gao said this?" ”
I only heard Gao Wanwan say, "I heard that Princess Chang'an is good at the guqin on weekdays, I don't know if Wanwan is lucky enough to hear the sound of the master's piano today." ”
For a while, everyone looked at Li Zhenzhen, with some expectation in their eyes. In fact, Su Junyan, as a hot prince in recent years, was the dream of many noble ladies here. Some of them were envious, others were jealous, and they wanted to know how she had won his affection.
Hearing this, Li Zhenzhen said, "Miss Gao, there are thousands of rumors in the world, but that's just a fallacy from the world." ”
Truth be told, tonight she just wants to stay quietly in the corner, drink a little wine, eat pastries, and watch all kinds of performances, instead of being pushed into the limelight.
How do you know that Gao Wanwan smiled lightly, "Princess Chang'an doesn't have to be too modest, Wanwan really wants to hear you play a song, so that she has no regrets in this life." ”
Li Zhenzhen was about to say something, Zeng Susu suddenly spoke, "Princess Chang'an, this palace is also looking forward to your piano sound." ”
Since she spoke, Li Zhenzhen couldn't refuse, so she slowly walked to the center of the stage and saluted, "Then Zhenzhen will be ugly today." ”
After that, she turned her head to Gao Wanwan and said, "Miss Gao, I didn't bring the piano to the banquet today, can I borrow your Aiqin for use?" ”
"Of course, it is a blessing to be able to lend the piano to Princess Chang'an."
Li Zhenzhen sat in front of the guqin, stroked the strings, tried the sound, and sure enough, it was a good guqin.
She smiled slightly, stroked the piano with both hands, and the elegant sound of the piano slowly came out. Everyone can hear that unlike Gao Wanwan's lively and agile piano sound, her piano sound has a touch of heaviness and majesty, which is shocking.
The men in particular, who were present, were all shocked. They have heard too many women's piano sounds, either lively and smart, or full of sadness, and this is the first time they have heard such a majestic and open piano sound.
The sound of the piano is the heart of the people, maybe these nobles present don't understand, but the male guests are clear. As the princess of the dead country, Li Zhenzhen does not have a trace of resentment and sorrow in the piano sound, but is extremely atmospheric, which is indeed special. It is not for nothing that Su Junyan likes her, but a woman like this is difficult to control, and I am afraid that only he dares to try.
A man is willing to admire a woman who is intelligent and generous, but it takes courage to marry home.
After the song, there was silence. Suddenly, Gao Liluo took the lead in applauding, and the applause was endless for a while.
As the son of the bachelor's mansion, Gao Liluo loves the piano as well as his sister Gao Wanwan, and originally thought that his sister's piano sound was already the best in this pool city. However, today, he learned that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky. Once, his vision was too narrow.
Li Zhenzhen glanced at Gao Liluo and smiled. Then he said to Zeng Susu, "Zhen Zhen is ugly." ”
Hearing this, Zeng Susu finally came back to his senses from the sound of the piano, "Princess Chang'an's piano skills are superb, and I heard it today, which is really my luck." ”
"The imperial sister-in-law has won the award."
"Today, this palace has a gift for you, and I hope you don't refuse."
After that, Zeng Susu got up, slowly walked in front of Li Zhenzhen, took off the blood jade bracelet on her wrist, and put it on her hand, "Princess Chang'an, this bracelet is still the marriage of the palace, and it is given to you today, I hope you don't dislike it." ”
"For such a valuable gift, Zhen Zhen has thanked the imperial sister-in-law."
The blood jade bracelet is the best at first glance, and it seems that Zeng Susu is showing favor to Li Zhenzhen. Zhao Wuyan's hands were clenched, both of them were the third princesses, why did they only please Li Zhenzhen? It was clear that she was slapping herself in the face.
Zeng Susu, she remembered tonight's shame. In the future, he will definitely make her regret it.
Li Zhenzhen returned to her seat and looked at the blood jade bracelet, always feeling that something was not right. It seems that it is better to study it yourself after you go back.
After the play just now, Li Zhenzhen felt bored, and hoped that the Lan Guoqin master mentioned by Su Junling would come forward.
However, even after the banquet, she did not see the luthier. It stands to reason that Su Junling shouldn't have deceived himself, could it be that something happened halfway?
In the end, she said goodbye to Zeng Susu with full doubts, and then got into the carriage and went home.
I'm a little tired tonight, and she's very comfortable in the hot water. Her eyes were slightly closed, and she kept thinking about what happened tonight, even if Su Junyan entered, she didn't notice it.
"Zhen Zhen......" His fingers caressed her skin, crispy and numb.
She opened her eyes, her cheeks flushed slightly, "Brother Junyan, why did you come in?" ”
"There is a beautiful person, bathing here, alive and fragrant, I can't help it, naturally I came in." Su Junyan smiled, "Zhenzhen, can I help you bathe?" ”
"Not good." Li Zhenzhen immediately refused, "I think that I should take a bath faster than Brother Junyan's actions." ”
Hearing this, Su Junyan pinched her nose and said with a smile, "It's too late, I want to bathe with Zhen Zhen." With that, he took off his shirt and went into the tub.
Because of one more person, the water in the tub overflowed, and the ground was damp.
Li Zhenzhen didn't dare to look at him, and closed her eyes. Seeing her like this, Su Junyan became interested, and wanted to tease her.
"Zhenzhen, open your eyes."
"Don't."
"I'm your husband, and it's not like I haven't seen it, so I don't need to be shy."
When he said this, she blushed even more and didn't dare to open her eyes.
Seeing this, Su Junyan leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I used to think that Zhen Zhen was not thin-skinned, why did you become more and more shy after getting married?" ”
What he said was the truth, once she thought he didn't like her, so she tried her best to get his attention, and she didn't think about the question of being shy or not, she was so bold.
But later, as she grew up, she also understood the truth that men and women have defense, so she restrained herself. As for now, he was so gentle all day, and her little pitiful shame grew day and night.
"Because Brother Junyan used to have a cold face, so I forced myself to be bold." Li Zhenzhen smiled, "Actually, my face has always been very thin, and I used to just pretend. ”
Su Junyan kissed her lips and couldn't help but sigh, "Silly girl." ”
For a time, the water rippled, and the indoor spring light was infinite......
