Chapter 6 A Happy Encounter
Tao Mingxi thought secretly, and an imperceptible smile rose at the corner of his mouth, but he didn't know that he was being caught in the afterglow of Xing Tianze on the side.
Xing Tianze silently picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, and when he looked up again, his deep eyes were already filled with a little interest, he, the princess who married from Fuyang Guoda and was married, has always been quiet and restrained on weekdays, but now she has changed her temperament, look at her situation, she is going to have a good show next.
I saw Tao Mingxi dressed up and walked to the hall generously, asked the musician to borrow a bamboo flute, and walked back to the hall with a faint smile: "Today, I am fortunate to gather with you, and in order to express the joy in my heart, Mingxi will play a song "Happy Meeting"!" ”
"Okay, the title of this song is very appropriate, please play it!"
The emperor praised Tao Mingxi, and the queen also did not hide her appreciation, Sun Sisi saw Tao Mingxi's expression so calm, but his eyes were disdainful, the little bamboo flute, what good tune can he play, dare to fight with her piano, it is really beyond his strength, Tao Mingxi is simply humiliating himself!
Tao Mingxi only regarded this full hall as air, took care of himself and brought the bamboo flute to his lips, took a deep breath, and his slender jade fingers moved with the breath with great dexterity, and a series of pleasant notes flowed out like flowing water, like sandalwood smoke, overflowing the entire palace room.
The sound of the song is melodious and slow at first, as if the waves of the river gently beat the embankment in spring, the willow branches sway lightly with the wind, the pieces of falling flowers slide into the river, there are fish playing against the current, and the mandarin ducks accompany each other to go down the water, a scene of vitality and vigor.
The melody gradually rose up, like a spring swallow flying near the water, jumping on the top of the canopy boat, chirping with joy. The captain supports the boat to dock, the traveler happily leaves the ship, in the hustle and bustle of the market, the peach blossoms are like a beautiful face, so far the song stops suddenly, but it rises suddenly, the height is staggered and makes people happy and surprised, and then it is gentle and bright as if walking hand in hand laughter......
The sound of the song finally fell on the peach blossom road, and when the swallow pair returned with people, it was very reverie.
Tao Mingxi glanced at the people present who were obviously a little unsatisfied, and just bowed to the emperor and empress modestly, "The concubine is ugly." ”
When the emperor heard her say this, he applauded again and again: "I have never heard such a fresh tune, it is really fascinating, and the fifth princess is humble!" ”
"I have long heard that you are extremely talented, and now I am grateful to the third imperial concubine for bringing it up, otherwise it would be a pity, you have such a good talent, it can be seen how much effort the monarch of Fuyang has put in to cultivate, and the fifth emperor brother can marry such a beautiful woman, it is really a blessing for him and me to punish Zhaoguo!"
"The emperor has a good reputation, and the concubines don't dare to be it!"
Tao Mingxi returned the bamboo flute, turned around and bowed to the emperor again, got up and saw Sun Sisi's unwilling look, and couldn't help but smile brighter.
She was about to walk back to her seat when the queen stopped her.
"Wait!" The queen said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the concubine remembers that in the old days, Concubine Zheng had a white jade flute, which has been placed in the box since the death ......of the concubine and cannot be used.
The emperor smiled heartily and immediately responded, "The queen reminded me well, then I will reward this jade flute to the five princesses, come on, go and get the jade flute!" ”
Tao Mingxi has been coveting a jade flute in the museum for a long time when he was still in modern times, and when he heard that the emperor was going to reward him, he was overjoyed, "Concubine thank the emperor for his gift!" ”
When Sun Sisi saw this scene, he immediately gritted his teeth in anger, he also played the tune, why did Tao Mingxi have a reward? She's proud, see how long she's been arrogant!
In the second half of the banquet, Tao Mingxi was very happy when he won the reward, and he was very happy to eat, Xing Tianze looked at her like this and was suspicious, but he only pretended to be silent and accompanied each other, and after the banquet, he led Tao Mingxi out of the palace gate in front of everyone.
Out of the palace, the two of them sat on the left and right sides of the carriage. Playing with the warm white jade flute, Tao Mingxi couldn't help but smile proudly, and even brought the flute to his mouth and blew a piece of "Gusu Xing", Xing Tianze stared at her with a focused expression, and there was a faint complexity in his deep eyes.
"It seems that the princess likes this jade flute very much?"
Tao Mingxi raised his eyes and glanced at the pure black iceberg opposite when he heard the sound, and then he restrained his smile and nodded, "I like it very much." ”
It was almost exposed. Tao Mingxi stiffened and sat upright, holding the jade flute calmly, his eyes falling on his shoes.
Xing Tianze saw that she had changed again in an instant, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and his deep voice sounded again: "I heard that the five princesses of Fuyang Kingdom have always lived in the palace, and all they have learned are the skills that are prevalent among the nobles, such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, tea, and as for the bamboo flute, Dong Xiao, etc., it is not the mainstream. ”
By implication, he was suspicious of Tao Mingxi. He has never seen a lady who learns the bamboo flute, first, playing the bamboo flute is not more elegant than playing the piano, and secondly, the bamboo flute is not more expensive than the piano.
Tao Mingxi is very calm, "The prince knows our Fuyang country very well, but this is all the opinion of outsiders, although the concubine is a princess of a country, she also has a little bit of her own hobbies, in addition to learning some princess courses on weekdays, she will also study some others, others feel that this non-mainstream flute is unbearable, but I am different, the reason why I play the bamboo flute in front of the emperor today is precisely because I heard that the country of Xingzhao is open, so I dare to sacrifice ugliness, I didn't expect to be rewarded by the emperor, It seems that I, the fifth princess, are not as unbearable as rumored. ”
Extremely? Xing Tianze heard Tao Mingxi say this, thinking of the rumors he heard on weekdays, and his eyes were inexplicably stunned.
"The princess is the mother of the palace, and she enjoys the same honor as this king, where does this so-called 'unbearable' begin?"
"The prince is in a high position, and his ability to perceive people's hearts is not weak, what does the concubine mean, how can the prince not know?" Tao Mingxi raised his eyes and glanced at Xing Tianze, his eyes were facing each other, and they were all speechless.
After a long time, Tao Mingxi looked away by himself, only to hear Xing Tianze say: "The princess should exercise the power, this king will never obstruct it, but the princess must remember that everything must be measured." ”
A lukewarm warning, Tao Mingxi listened to it in his ears, but his back was inexplicably cold, what did Xing Tianze see?
Whatever, anyway, he occupies this body as a fake, and he can only restrict her from overstepping the rules, as long as she doesn't provoke him to cause trouble, what can he do to her?
As soon as he returned to the palace, Tao Mingxi got out of the carriage and slipped back to his courtyard with Zhu'er, and Sun Yingru and others, who were waiting to see Xing Tianze in the front hall, saw her holding the white jade flute in her hand at a glance, and the jealousy in her heart deepened, but she still pretended to greet her, and Tao Mingxi ignored them directly.
"Niangniang, what is this in your hand, made of jade?"
