Chapter 465: Haze (3)
Song Qing'er was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't speak for a long time.
Seeing that she was silent, Liu Nan smiled bitterly again. "If you want to listen to these words, you can listen to them, and if you don't want to listen to them, you won't listen to them."
She left these words, then took the palace maid's hand and left slowly step by step.
Song Qing'er stood in place with a solemn expression.
The future is long...... Yes, princesses have to grow up.
Over the years, she has been reining in her edge and bending her knees under Meng Xilan. But now, for the sake of her sister, she has to do something, even if it's a rainy day.
The wound at the mouth of the immortal tiger needs to be changed every day.
He can't practice bows and arrows for a while, and besides, he's still left-handed, so he has to pay attention when holding a pen.
This little injury gave him an unexpected leisure time.
His birthday is approaching. The queen mother seemed to care, but he himself didn't care at all.
There are not many places to move around in this palace, and the Imperial Garden is the best choice.
The last time he heard the sound of the piano here. Whenever it was quiet, he missed his sister's piano.
Changsheng walked along the shade of the tree, and a few steps away, followed by a column of eunuchs and palace maids.
Today, the Meng brothers did not enter the palace, and there was no one around him who could talk.
He came to the courtyard to relax, and inadvertently walked to his favorite rockery when he was a child, and his mood rose again for a while.
The garden used to be their favorite place. He didn't know how many times he climbed this rockery, again and again, and once he accidentally fell down the mountain and sprained his ankle. Or did my sister reach out to protect him firmly......
is obviously such a thin person, but he catches him steadily.
She was injured in her arm and couldn't lift it for a whole month. And his elbow was also scratched and bleeding.
In the past, he only thought that the rockery was very high, but now, he can reach the top in just a few steps.
When the little eunuchs saw His Royal Highness the Prince, they lifted the hem of their clothes and stepped onto the rockery, they couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them: "Your Highness, how are you doing this...... Watch your step...... ...... under your feet"
Changsheng was athletic, found a flat stone and stood on it.
The sun shone directly on him, with the warmth of Hexi.
Changsheng closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, he seemed to see his sister's face.
She just stood there, looked up, and smiled at him.
"Changsheng, don't stand on such a high place."
The hallucinations came and went as fast as they could, and the sun was bright and dazzling.
Changsheng closed his eyes again, and his sister disappeared again.
What is she doing now? Who is she crying to, and who is she laughing at?
Just as he was full of thoughts, the sound of the piano sounded in his ears again.
Changsheng frowned slightly, listened attentively, and was sure that this was not an illusion or an illusion.
The sound is real, it's real.
Changsheng frowned slightly, followed the prestige, and felt that the sound of the piano was not far from him.
Is it the musician again?
Changsheng jumped off the rockery and followed the sound of the piano.
This place is very close to Shuixin Lake, and you can get there with a cup of tea.
The sound of the harp came from the lake, and there were people by the lake.
On the water platform, the Maiko of the Palace Orchestra is rehearsing a new dance. The water sleeves are plump, gentle and graceful, they are all thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, soft and immature.
Changsheng came to the lake and stood in the shade of the trees, quietly, no one noticing his presence.
"Your Highness, these are the women of the Palace Music Workshop."
Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't care much about other people, only about the musician who played the piano.
She didn't look much older than those maikos. She bowed her head slightly, making it impossible to see her face.
Her piano skills are outstanding, her fingers are delicate, her fingertips pluck the strings, and her gestures are surprisingly similar to carefree.
They all play the piano beautifully.
Inadvertently, Changsheng's feet began to move, and he stepped out of the shade of the tree.
His appearance once again attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone saluted and said goodbye, and they were busy again.
Prince...... This is another coincidence, no, maybe it is providence.
Shen Dan raised his eyes and glanced at His Royal Highness the Prince, who was surrounded by everyone, and his heart tightened slightly. She lifted her long skirt and slowly got up, she was the last person to salute the Prince.
The reason she dared to do this was because she noticed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes were on her.
Shen Dan knew why he was looking at her, because she could play the piano.
"The slave Shen Dan has seen His Royal Highness the Prince."
She said softly, and it didn't matter. But Changsheng's eyebrows moved slightly, and he glanced at her lightly, and then turned to leave.
His reaction was still as cold as that, but it didn't matter.
Shen Dan reported her name, although she had no rules, but in the eyes of someone with a heart, she must have done it on purpose.
Changsheng didn't have the ability to forget, but he still remembered the name Shen Dan.
In the evening, the people of the palace came to the queen mother and explained all the itinerary of His Royal Highness the prince throughout the day.
There is no doubt that Meng Xilan doesn't care much about other things, but the incident by the lake made her expression change instantaneously.
It's Gong Le Fang again...... It's the musician who plays the piano again......
"Her name? Didn't she say her name? ”
"Hui Niangniang, her name is Shen Dan."
Meng Xilan's eyes condensed slightly. This is a very easy name to remember, I wonder if Changsheng remembered it?
Changsheng is not yet fifteen years old this year, so there are still people in the court who propose to take a concubine for him. But sooner or later he will have a wife.
Early the next morning, Meng Xilan and Zhu Lu mentioned this Shen Dan.
Zhulu frowned when she heard this.
"There is such a scheming girl in the palace, why doesn't the slave and maid know?"
The Internal Affairs Office has always been harsh in selecting people, what is the origin of this Shen Dan? However, if there is a problem with her, Gao Welfare will not be unnoticed.
Meng Xilan looked at her ugly expression, so she muttered: "Ming'er, you go to the palace music workshop, bring that child over, and let the palace see it." ”
She's either really scheming, or she's being reminded.
"Mother, do you want to see her in person? Is she worthy of it? ”
Zhulu felt that Niangniang was overestimating her.
"Seeing this palace in person can save you a lot of trouble back and forth."
Whether it's a human or a ghost, you have to see it with your own eyes.
Because of yesterday's incident, Shen Dan is already famous in Gongle Fang.
Everyone sees her as someone with other scheming intentions because she wants to stand out too much.
There are rules for everything in the palace, and whoever breaks the rules first will be the first to be unlucky.
Shen Dan was punished by the grandmothers and slapped his mouth heavily.
When Zhulu found her, she looked at her slightly red and swollen left cheek, and said with a smile: "The queen wants to see you." ”
Shen Dan seemed to be prepared, got up and saluted, "Say hello to my aunt." ”
Zhulu narrowed her eyes slightly, looking her up and down.
She is a beautiful embryo, if it is a few years later, it will be bright and moving. However, looking at it now, her face is still childish.
But those eyes are bright and shiny, and they look very smart.
The moment Shen Dan stepped into Cining Palace, her heartbeat was half a beat faster.
This is the place. The grandmothers in the palace said that this is the most terrible place, but also the most luxurious place.
The queen who can cover the sky with one hand, the rumored terrible woman is here.
Everyone in the palace is afraid of the queen.
Zhu Lu walked unhurriedly, Shen Dan lowered his eyes slightly, and did not dare to look around.
In the splendid palace, a young and beautiful woman sat on the throne.
She's the queen. Shen Dan once looked at her from afar, but only from afar.
Meng Xilan looked at the young girl behind Zhu Lu and slightly hooked the corners of her lips.
Sure enough, there is a bit of a posture. Come to think of it, from the moment she entered the palace, she was restless in her heart.
"The slave maid greets the queen." She saluted in a proper manner, and her voice was pleasant and gentle.
Meng Xilan said softly: "Raise your head and let the palace take a look." ”
Shen Dan took a deep breath and raised his face.
Meng Xilan took a closer look and said with a smile: "What a good face, how did it become like this?" ”
Shen Dan said honestly: "It's the slave who did something wrong. Slaves and maids should not talk too much, and the grandmothers are right to teach slaves and maids. ”
Meng Xilan glanced at Zhulu and signaled that she didn't need to stare at her.
Zhulu took a step back and left the inner sanctum.
Meng Xilan looked at Shen Dan quietly: "How old are you this year?" ”
"Hui Niangniang, the slave maid is sixteen years old this year."
Shen Dan didn't hide or hide, and looked directly into Meng Xilan's eyes.
She's so young...... The grandmothers in the palace all said that she was nearly forty years old. Not really, not at all.
How is she cared for? Could it be that some secret recipe in the palace was used?
Xu was too nervous, and Shen Dan's mind was cranky.
Meng Xilan looked at her erratic eyes and knew that she was afraid.
"I heard that you are very good at playing the piano, why don't you give this palace a section?" Meng Xilan said lightly.
Shen Dan was slightly stunned when he heard this. "Yes...... If the mother likes it. ”
Her piano skills are indeed exquisite, but compared with worry-free, there is a little less sincerity.
After listening to the song, Meng Xilan clapped her hands lightly and said: "I played it well, and I knew that I had worked hard at a glance." ”
Shen Dan lowered his head: "The slave carving insect skill makes the mother smile." ”
Meng Xilan pondered a little before she said, "Since the princess got married, this palace originally didn't like to listen to the piano...... Seeing things and thinking about people is the most sad. ”
Shen Dan listened quietly, I don't know what the queen's intentions are?
"This is true of the main palace, and so is the crown prince......"
Meng Xilan suddenly lowered her tone, causing Shen Dan's heart to sink slightly.
"You are playing the piano in the imperial garden, and you meet the prince twice, such a coincidence really makes the palace feel strange!"
Shen Dan immediately knelt down when he heard this, and said solemnly: "Niangniang, it is really a coincidence that the slave dares to swear with her life...... The slave didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would suddenly appear......"
She bit her lower lip and looked innocent.
Meng Xilan spilled a chuckle from her lips: "Coincidence? When you reach the age of Hongu, you will know that there are no coincidences in this world at all! ”
If someone with a heart does something unintentional, is that a coincidence?
