23. Mid-Autumn Festival Feast (1)
Linghu took Fang Ling back to the courtyard, Fang Ling held back her words all the way, and didn't dare to say it in front of Cen Junhan, so she couldn't help it, "Jingshu, your trick just now is too powerful, how did you do it?" ”
"It's a lot of work. If you want to learn, I'll teach you. Linghu looked at Fang Ling
"I can't learn this, so forget it." Fang Ling knows very well, just the trick just now, which can't be learned every few years. Fang Ling became more and more confused about when she, the eldest lady, learned these things.
Linghu smiled and didn't say anything, "Fang Ling, is the piano I asked the violinist to play?" ”
"On the day of marriage, the master asked him to bring it together." Fang Ling looked at the spirit fox, "But you want to bring it?" ”
"Well, the people of Longchu will also arrive at the Mid-Autumn Festival, and this qin will also be brought." Linghu changed his coat, "Now use it to practice your hands." Linghu asked the violinist to beat the phoenix head gonghou. Linghu learned about this dynasty, and there really was no such musical instrument as Konghou.
"I'll go find someone to get it." Fang Ling turned around and ran out and found a few family members. After a while, he moved Gong Hou in. "You tap, be careful. It is feasible for the princess to put it here. ”
"Well, just leave it there." Linghu put down the book in his hand, "You guys have worked hard, Fang Ling." Linghu nodded. Fang Ling understood, "Just put it here, these are the princess's reward for you." So saying, he took out a bag of silver and handed it to them.
"Thank you for the reward, the slave will retire." A few family members happily took the money and returned it.
"Jingshu, what is this, Qin? It's so beautiful. Fang Ling gently touched the Konghou decorated with a phoenix head.
"This is called Fengshou Gonghou, which is a kind of Konghou. It's been lost for a long time, and it's not surprising that you don't know each other. "The spirit fox has also been seen in books before, and it is even more rare in the 21st century, but although it is rare, there are still many capable people who have studied it.
"Then Jingshu, how do you know?" Fang Ling looked at Linghu with a look of adoration, "And how do you know so many things." ”
"I once read a miscellaneous book, which recorded this Konghou, and then I also looked for all kinds of books about it, but there were very few, and I barely managed to get this Konghou." Linghu remembered that when he was a child, he saw Konghou and shouted to learn, and later in order to find a teacher to teach Konghou, his mother also spent a lot of time to find such a teacher. After a few years of study, his family was bloodbathed, and he never touched it again. I didn't expect that she would play this gong again here.
"Jingshu, how can you play this?" Linghu was so engrossed that he didn't hear Fang Ling's words, "Jingshu, what do you think?" Fang Ling patted Linghu on the shoulder.
"Well, I can only give it a try." After all, I haven't touched it for years, so I can only grope with my memory. Linghu sat in front of Konghou. I was going to put the guitar, but the strings of the guitar couldn't find the right one. The familiar feel made Linghu seem to return to the time when he practiced the piano by himself, and his mother was watching him from the side. As a piano teacher, my mother is so happy to see that she wants to learn Konghou so much, although she is helpless.
The sound of the piano is slow, lingering and beautiful, and the aftertaste is endless. I didn't expect it to be smooth after not touching it for so long. "That's a nice sound. This Konghou not only looks good-looking, but I didn't expect this pop-up to be so beautiful. Fang Ling's eyes never left the phoenix head in front of her, "Jingshu, what is this song called?" ”
"What I just played is called "Xiangfei Bamboo"." This is the first song that Linghu practiced after learning to be a gonghou, and it is also her favorite.
"If this gonghou is displayed at the banquet, it will definitely be an eye-opener for everyone." Fang Ling said confidently, "Let's not talk about whether anyone can play the piano that day." Just this Konghou, except for Jingshu you, no one can play such a beautiful tune. This is also good for the people of Long Chu to know that our Cangye Kingdom has always been incomparable to their Long Chu. Jingshu, you are so amazing, I will also study in the future. ”
Linghu couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard Fang Ling's words, and shook his head, "This time their goal was not achieved, there will be another time." As long as they don't get what they want, things will keep coming. ”
"Hey, that's a nuisance." Fang Ling sat on the chair, really couldn't understand what those people thought. "Jingshu, if you didn't go to Heifu Hall today, would the prince really export the palace?"
"If he just exports the palace, he will not be a feared god of war. I'm afraid that when we win back the four princes, the impeachment of the four princes will already be in the hands of the emperor. Linghu looked at the book in his hand, picked up the pen and said.
"No, this." Fang Ling couldn't believe it, if this was the case, then this Cold King was really terrifying. "Jingshu, how do you know King Han so well?" Fang Ling saw that Linghu wanted to write, so she got up and went to polish the ink.
"It's not that I understand, it's just that if it were me, I would do the same." In fact, sometimes I can't figure out what this prince is thinking, sometimes it's just a feeling. Linghu stopped writing and thought to himself.
"Fang Ling, you can rest. I'll just do it myself. Linghu pulled back his thoughts and saw Fang Ling grinding ink.
"It's okay, I'm not tired, I'm just idle and bored." In this palace, unlike in the Prime Minister's Mansion, there are no people who chat with Xiuying and Xunmei, so it's better to polish ink here with peace of mind. Fang Ling pursed her lips helplessly.
"When I'm done here, how about taking you out to play?" Linghu could see that Fang Ling was bored here.
"Really? Where are you going? Fang Ling was interested when she heard this.
"When did I lie to you, and when the time comes, I will call Xiuying too. Relax, Xiu Ying has been quite tired lately. "Linghu has always wanted to go to Lincong to take a look, and I heard that it is the most prosperous city outside the capital. Linghu smelled a glimmer of business opportunities in Lincong, Lincong's location was even more advantageous than the capital, and it would be a good choice if Dark Moon could develop to Lincong. "I'm going to go to Lincong to have a look."
"Lincong? I heard that it is very prosperous, the road is not forgotten, and the door is not closed at night. It would be great to be able to go there. ”
"Okay, take a good rest, wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival, but some are busy."
"yes, okay."
Mid-Autumn Festival
"Princess, this is the clothes that the prince has prepared for you." As soon as the spirit fox finished washing, a maid came in with clothes and jewelry.
"Okay, let it go." "Yes."
"Fang Ling, you can help me change." Linghu glanced at the complicated costume and didn't know where to start.
"Yes, okay." Saying that, Fang Ling helped Linghu put them on one by one.
"This dress is so heavy." Linghu is used to wearing light clothes, and it is really difficult to accept this cumbersome clothes for a while.
"With so much jewelry, will your neck break?" It was even more extravagant and heavy than the day she got married. Linghu rubbed his neck unconsciously. Linghu mourned silently for his neck.
"Alright, let's go." I saw that I almost went out with Fang Ling.
"Minions see the princess." Steward Zhou saw that the princess had already come, and saluted.
"Steward Zhou, get up." Linghu hurriedly stepped forward to help Steward Zhou. Steward Zhou is so old, she can't stand this gift.
"Princess, the prince has already prepared the carriage. Please. Steward Zhou said let's lead the way for Linghu.
Linghu got into the carriage and saw that Cen Junhan was already sitting inside. "Morning." Linghu greeted very casually, Cen Junhan nodded slightly, and did not speak. Linghu didn't care, and ate the fruit on the table by himself. I have to say that the carriage of this palace is really luxurious and comfortable.
"Lord, the princess has arrived at the gate of the palace." It didn't take long for the voice of a lone shadow to be heard.
"Just stop at the door." Cen Junhan gave a simple order.
"Yes, lord."
"Phew." The carriage stopped, "Fang Ling, you can't move around at will when you enter the palace for a while, you have to be careful about everything, do you know?" Linghu got out of the carriage and whispered in Fang Ling's ear. Yes, Fang Ling knows. ”
"Presumably, the imperial grandmother is about to arrive in the capital."
"Huh? Oh" Cen Junhan suddenly came out with such a sentence, which made Linghu not react for a while.
Cen Junhan looked at Linghu's casual answer and was a little depressed. "Then you will follow me, lest you lose your manners. Don't bring your casual wandering in the palace with you. Otherwise, the king will not be able to save you. ”
Linghu rolled his eyes countless times in his heart, "I haven't lived enough, so I don't need your reminder." Linghu's voice happened to fall on the ears of the two people.
"You." This woman really has the ability to make people angry," that's it. Cen Junhan flicked his sleeves and walked forward.
Linghu didn't bother to say anything, glanced at Cen Junhan's back and followed. She really didn't bother to dig deep into the brains of these ancients, but she was really worried about this queen mother, if she was really a difficult master, wouldn't she have another trouble, Linghu rubbed his eyebrows, "It's really annoying." ”
"Third Emperor Sister-in-law, you are here." Seeing the spirit fox with a bitter and vengeful face, Cen Jingyue hurriedly got up from the stool, "The Fourth Emperor Brother, the Fifth Emperor Brother, and the Seventh Emperor Brother, I don't understand what they say, they are all bored to death." Third Imperial Sister-in-law, you can chat with me when you come. ”
"I've seen the three emperor brothers, the three emperor sisters-in-law. Jingyue, you don't know the severity like this, be careful that the Third Emperor Brother scolds you again. Cen Jinglin saw Cen Jingyue running out in a hurry, so he followed.
"But it's so stuffy inside, sister-in-law of the Third Emperor, you can go out for a walk with me." Cen Jingyue pulled the spirit fox. To be honest, apart from the people close to her, Cen Jingyue is the only one who is so close to Linghu but does not disgust Linghu.
"Jingyue, don't mess around." Cen Junhan, who had been silent for a long time, could be regarded as having a word.
"Got it." Cen Jingyue pursed her lips aggrievedly and said, "Brother the Third Emperor, can you lend me the Third Emperor's sister-in-law after a while." ”
Cen Junhan glanced at Linghu, "Ask your third sister-in-law." So saying, he went into the house.
"I just agreed, Brother Three Emperors." Cen Jingyue followed behind Cen Junhan and whispered. Linghu couldn't help but want to laugh when he watched Cen Jingyue follow Cen Junhan with a fart.
"Three Emperor Brothers, Three Emperor Sisters-in-law." Cen Zixuan saw Cen Junhan and Linghu coming in, and hurriedly got up and saluted.
"The Fifth Emperor Brother doesn't have to be polite." Cen Junhan walked over and sat down. looked around for a week, but did not see Cen Jingyun and Cen Xiuzhu.
"Brother Sanhuang, now the sister-in-law of the Third Emperor can lend it to me." Cen Jingyue saw that the spirit fox was fine, and thought about finding the spirit fox to go out.
Linghu didn't speak and looked at Cen Junhan, she was not the master who was not enough, if she said it at this time, Cen Junhan might have to say something when she returned home, which would make her upset.
"The eldest brother was sent to greet Long Chu's envoys, and I am afraid that he will not come back until the dinner party." Cen Jinglin meant that the eldest brother would not come back for a while and a half, and it would be fine if the third emperor's sister-in-law left.
"Do not go far, lest you be late for the feast." Cen Junhan was relieved when he heard Cen Jinglin's words.
Seeing this, Cen Jinglin hurriedly thought that Cen Jingyue was a look. Cen Jingyue nodded, "Thank you, Third Emperor Brother." Cen Jingyue hurriedly pulled the spirit fox and ran out.
Cen Junhan watched the two run out helplessly, hooked the corners of his mouth, and seemed to have a smile just for Cen Jinglin to see. Cen Jinglin hurriedly rubbed his eyes, made sure that his eyes were not flowered, leaned over to Cen Junhan's side, and whispered, "Brother Sanhuang, you are in such a good mood." ”
Cen Junhan gave a look, Cen Jinglin closed his mouth knowingly, and sat back obediently.
"Third Imperial Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for a while. What are you busy with? Cen Jingyue and Linghu sat down in the pavilion where they went to the garden, "Isn't it cultivating a relationship with my third emperor brother?" ”
"Thinking too much. I and your three emperor brothers, the well water does not interfere with the river water, and it is the best. But you, hasn't your father considered your marriage for you? Linghu raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly.
"What happened to me?" Cen Jingyue was suddenly a little embarrassed and blushed
"I'm blushing, don't you have someone you like, huh?" When Linghu saw Cen Jinglin's reaction, he suddenly became gossipy.
"Why, what is there." Cen Jingyue lowered her head timidly and muttered.
"Okay, look at you like that, all the careful thoughts are exposed, okay?" Linghu looked at Cen Jingyue's appearance and couldn't help laughing, she was really a little girl who was just starting to fall in love.
"No, laugh." Cen Jingyue made Linghu smile even more embarrassed, "Third Emperor Sister-in-law." ”
"Okay, I'm not smiling." Linghu pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing, "Then you tell me to satisfy my curiosity." Linghu poked Cen Jingyue's shoulder.
"Yes, yes, yes..."Cen Jingyue didn't come out with a result for a long time.
"Who is it? You've been here for a long time. Linghu asked anxiously.
"It's Xiao Yingfeng." Cen Jingyue made a lot of determination to say it.
"Oh, it's Xiao." Linghu didn't react for a while, "What, Xiao, it's not right, it's my brother." Xiao Yingfeng was just about to say these three words when Linghu reacted.
Cen Jingyue's head was getting lower and lower, and she was about to fall to the ground.
"Oh my God, that's breaking news. It's amazing. Linghu jumped up directly from the chair. When did it start? ”
"That's it, I secretly went out to play a while ago and ran into some trouble......" Cen Jingyue told all about her encounter with Xiao Yingfeng.
"Oh my God, I didn't expect that my big brother like wood would stage such an old-fashioned plot as a hero saving beauty." Linghu looked incredulous, "If you marry my brother in the future, won't our seniority be messed up, you call me sister-in-law, and I still call you sister-in-law." It's so strange, so let's use our names in the future. I'll call you Jingyue, and you can call me Jingshu. ”
"Third Emperor Sister-in-law, you're thinking too far, you haven't even scratched these eight characters." Cen Jingyue said that her mood was a little low, "Third imperial sister-in-law, you don't know that in this palace, we, as princes and princesses, can't make our own decisions about marriage. From ancient times to the present, the marriages of the royal family often involve too much, and sometimes even if you like it, it is not without an ending in the end. ”
"Well, that's right. But don't be so pessimistic. I'll go and find out my brother's tone, if my brother is interested in you, let my brother ask the emperor for a holy decree, no. However......" Linghu didn't continue to say what was going on.
"I know." Cen Jingyue knew what Linghu was going to say, "If Brother Xiao has no intention of me, I won't force it." It's just that I'm afraid that I won't be able to pass my father's pass. ”
"Father, don't worry, leave it to me." Anyway, the emperor still owes her a condition, and she should agree.
"Really?" Cen Jingyue was not shy, "Then thank you for the Third Emperor Sister-in-law." ”
"This Jingyue has a good relationship with the Third Emperor's sister-in-law." Cen Zixuan looked at Cen Jinglin and asked.
"Yes, this Jingyue rarely cares so much about anyone." Cen Jinglin thought at first that Cen Jingyue was just curious about her three imperial sisters-in-law, but now it seems that the two of them are really in love, "I can make my sister, who has never taken anyone seriously, so favored, this third imperial sister-in-law is really powerful." Brother Sanhuang, do you say yes? Cen Jinglin stole a glance at Cen Junhan
"Yes." Cen Junhan's reply made Cen Jinglin not react for a while.
"Third Emperor Brother, were you agreeing with me just now?" Cen Jinglin thought that he, the Three Emperor Brothers, would not pay attention to his jokes at all.
"What's the problem?" Cen Junhan picked up the teacup casually, took a sip and felt that the taste of this tea was different from before, "What is this tea?" ”
"This tea was made by Jing Yue." When it comes to this tea, Cen Jinglin really has to say it well, "Brother Sanhuang, don't say it." Jing Yue really didn't learn from the three emperors' sisters-in-law in vain, this tea brew is really different from before. It used to be hard to swallow, but now you can take it. At first, I just thought she was three minutes hot, who would have thought that after taking a set of tea sets from her sister-in-law of the Third Emperor, she would study this tea every day. No, now you can put it here to entertain guests. ”
"Well, yes, but it needs to be strengthened." Cen Junhan nodded.
"Seventh brother, if Jing Yue really likes to study this tea, why not find a teacher for her." Cen Zixuan put away the fan in his hand, "You said that these three emperor brothers are the newlywed Yan'er, Jingyue always goes to disturb, it's not good after all, do you say it?" ”
Receiving Cen Zixuan's "ill-intentioned" gaze, Cen Jinglin immediately understood, "What the Fifth Emperor Brother said is that I will find a teacher for Jingyue tomorrow." Let the three emperor brothers and the three emperor sisters-in-law have more time to cultivate their feelings. Cen Jinglin pretended to be serious and said, "Maybe you will add a little imperial nephew to me when the time comes." ”
"Speaking of which, this king has come to think of it, hasn't Wu Caixuan, the daughter of the Wu Governor's Mansion, always been interested in the fifth brother, why don't this king ask his father and the emperor to give you a marriage?" Cen Junhan's words were neither light nor heavy, and they just fell on the ears of the three people.
"Don't don't, the third emperor brother, the fifth brother is wrong, wrong. Hehe. Cen Zixuan hurriedly waved his hand, thinking of the arrogant and domineering Wu Caixuan, it was better to marry such a woman and go home than to be with the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for a lifetime.
Cen Jinglin touched his nose and turned his head. "Don't dare to talk more, otherwise the fox of the third emperor brother may not think of any tricks to clean himself up." Cen Jinglin thought to himself.
While the three of them were talking, Grandpa Xu came in. "The old slave sees His Royal Highness the King of Han, the fifth prince, and the seventh prince."
"Father-in-law, please get up." Cen Junhan saw that Gonggong Xu, who was beside his father, was coming, and hurriedly got up. "I don't know if my father-in-law is here, but what's the matter?"
"The Queen Mother is about to arrive, and the emperor ordered King Han and Princess Han to go to greet her." Gonggong Xu replied with a bent over.
"There is a father-in-law, and the king will send someone to inform the princess."
"The old slave has retired." After speaking, Gonggong Xu left.
"It seems that my father wants the emperor's grandmother to see the three emperors earlier." Cen Jinglin got up and walked to Cen Junhan's side, "This imperial grandmother didn't attend your wedding, so she must be anxious to meet the third imperial sister-in-law and see what her granddaughter-in-law is like." ”
"Then what do you think the imperial grandmother will do when she sees the third imperial sister-in-law?" Cen Zixuan asked.
"I'm sure that the imperial grandmother will definitely like the third imperial sister-in-law." looked at Cen Jinglin with a confident look, as if he was talking about his princess.
"It seems that you are very satisfied with your third imperial sister-in-law." Cen Junhan asked with a calm face.
"Uh, it's fine." Cen Jinglin was furious by Cen Junhan.
Cen Junhan went out without speaking, and Cen Jinglin breathed a sigh of relief when he watched Cen Junhan walk away. The face of the third emperor brother just now was terrifying.
"Are the Third Emperor Brothers jealous?" Cen Zixuan patted Cen Jinglin's shoulder and said quietly.
"No, it won't." Cen Jinglin's eyes widened as if he had discovered a new world.
Cen Zixuan shook his head helplessly, "I'm afraid he doesn't know at all." ”
Cen Jinglin returned to his seat, holding his chin, as if thinking about something, "Hey, if the Third Emperor Brother and the Third Emperor Sister-in-law can really have feelings, it is really a good thing." Cen Jinglin was a little distracted when he thought of seeing the third emperor's sister-in-law in the new room on the night of the wedding.
"What do you think?" Cen Zixuan saw Cen Jinglin in a daze, and asked currently.
"Ahh It's nothing. Cen Jinglin calmed down, what did he think? That's his third sister-in-law. "It's not early, let's go find Jingyue, and then go to the main hall."
Without saying much, the two went out.
