Chapter 68: Stunning the audience
At this time. The entire Yongqing Hall was plunged into darkness. Just when everyone was a little confused. A light lit up in the center of the main hall. I saw a few dancers dressed in light gauze appear in the center of the hall. Then a heart-wrenching sound of the flute rose softly. The wonderful figures in the center of the arena danced to the music. Countless delicate petals gently flutter between heaven and earth. The refreshing floral fragrance is intoxicating. Those dancers have buds that bloom. Spread out in all directions. Rain. A beautiful girl in white. Appears like a hollow valley orchid. With her light and graceful, ethereal dance. Wide wide sleeves open and close to conceal. It also brings out her beautiful posture. Everyone watched her graceful dancing in fascination. Almost forgot to breathe.
The girl's beautiful eyes are longing. Everyone present had their hearts beating. I hope that what the girl sees in her eyes at this moment is herself.
It's her. Han Xiluo was stunned for a moment. Isn't this young woman the quiet woman in the glass hall? Han Xiluo was not only surprised with her dancing posture. More amazed with her beauty. She's really beautiful. Beautiful as a fairy.
The eyes of everyone in the hall were deeply attracted by her. Even Nangong Zhen's eyes showed amazement.
Han Xiluo unconsciously turned his head to look at the other side. only to find that the eyes of those people were still only on themselves.
No way. Such a beautiful woman danced in front of them. They didn't even respond. Is there a problem with the eyes?
It's just that the man on the other side didn't pay any attention to her expression. Still looking at her indifferently.
A dance. The hall burst into applause. The voices of amazement are endless.
"Yun Yi is ugly." I saw the woman slowly bow.
"Yun'er's dancing skills are really getting more and more powerful. Haven't seen each other for a few years. The mourners are almost unrecognizable." The Queen Mother was also surprised.
"Yun'er. She is Meng Yunyi, the second lady of General Meng's Mansion." Nangong Zhen was obviously a little surprised.
"Huh. Yes. Yun Yi has changed too much in the past few years. It's no wonder the emperor won't recognize it." The Queen Mother can see Meng Yunyi on her birthday. Still very happy. After all, such a big thing happened before this dream house. The Queen Mother's heart is already very uncomfortable. See this Yun Yi today. Suddenly, the gloom in my heart dissolved a lot.
No wonder it feels familiar. Han Xiluo looked at Meng Yunyi in front of him with some surprise. It turns out that she is Meng Bingyue's own sister. No wonder Meiyu and Meng Bingyue are so similar. It's no wonder she feels familiar.
"Yun'er came over to mourn the family. Let the mourners take a good look at you." The Queen Mother beckoned to Meng Yunyi. Meng Yun walked lightly to the side of the Queen Mother.
"It's good to be back." The Queen Mother patted the back of her hand. Seems to have thought of something. A hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Hmm. Yun'er will not go back in the future."
"Good. Okay."
"Empress Dowager. The daughter of this dream general is indeed the phoenix among men. However, I heard that Princess Qin's piano skills are also rare in the world. Why don't you let Princess Qin present a song for the Queen Mother?" A certain important minister suddenly stood up and said.
"The mourners have also heard of it. I don't know if I'll be lucky enough to hear it today."
"Then the daughter-in-law will be ugly." Chen Chuyao slowly walked into the hall.
The maid has already put the piano away.
Chen Chuyao was slightly blessed. Take a seat. The white jade-like slender hands gently rested on the strings. A clear sound came. Like a nightingale in the evening. Drowsy. The voice is soft and tactful. Half a day. The rhythm is brisk. It's as if the moon has risen into the sky. The nightingale falls in the psychedelic of moonlight. Singing gracefully. Gradually. The rhythm has a contagious power. Spread all around. The nightingale's song stayed in the moonlight. It took its wings and went away. Crushed the moonlight that filled the garden. The sound stopped abruptly.
Everyone held their breath. I'm afraid that a little sound can ruin this beautiful sound.
"Okay." The end of a song. Nangong Zhen couldn't help but clap his hands and shouted.
Then the people came to their senses. Applause erupted.
"This song is only because of heaven. It's rare to smell it in the world." The ministers sighed one after another.
Alas. Han Xiluo couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This ancient woman is really full of food and has nothing to do. It's not that the dancing skills are superb. It's the piano skills that are superb. Is it useless except for these. Won't you do anything else serious?
Of course. After this. And one after another, the ladies in various houses went up to show their talents. It's not so much about showing off your talents. It's more direct to seduce men. You don't have to think about it to know. Except for the unlucky ones. Who else will there be.
It's just that the performance of Sheng Lingxiao and Situ Mujin is not obvious. It's just a secret send-off in the face of a beautiful woman. Choose to ignore lightly. But Nangong Liye and Bei Minghao don't have such a good attitude. Whenever someone wants to come in their direction. Bei Minghao directly lowered his face. With a cold look at the person who was about to come over. The frightened family almost fell in public. Han Xiluo was a little stunned. She had never seen Bei Minghao look like this. It's like seeing a plague.
Nangong Liye is more direct. It is said that it should be the daughter of the right prime minister's house. I want to take this opportunity to express my love to Nangong Liye. As a result, Nangong Liye flew over with a cup. It just hit her on the head. Suddenly, a stream of blood poured out of the wound. As a result, Nangong Liye not only did not apologize in the slightest. At the end, he said lightly, "Get out." This makes the right quite field angry about to explode. It's just that the Queen Mother opened her mouth and rounded the field. This is again at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. The right minister had to give up for the time being.
Han Xiluo looked at all this in front of him lightly. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with her.
Just when the hall was plunged into an awkward atmosphere. Meng Yunyi, who was standing beside the Queen Mother, spoke slowly. I heard that Princess Han is a strange woman. I wonder if Yun'er will have the honor to consult with Princess Han today." She can say that. It must be because she dreams of being recognized as a talented woman today. Not only the dancing skills are amazing. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are even more proficient.
"yes. It's better to let Princess Han compare with Miss Yun." The ladies present began to echo each other.
"This." The Queen Mother was a little embarrassed. Although she knew that Kerr was different. But if you really want to compare with Yun'er. That's not comparable.
"Kerr. What do you think?" It was Nangong Trace who spoke. Let's be honest. He did want to see if Han Ke'er was so unique in other ways.
"Oh. Than what." Han Xiluo just asked lightly.
"It's better to let the princess decide. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can be any kind. The princess just has to choose the strongest of herself." The corners of Meng Yunyi's mouth raised a confident smile.
I saw Han Xiluo slightly locking his eyebrows. Seems to be thinking seriously about something.
And everyone is quietly waiting.
Just the next moment. Han Xiluo's words made the corners of everyone's mouths twitch uncontrollably.
"The princess of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting books doesn't know either." Han Xiluo looked like he didn't care. But there is a sense of arrogance all the time.
"No, it won't. I wouldn't be so arrogant." Everyone cast contemptuous glances at Han Xiluo. Where did this cold princess get her confidence?
"It's worthy of Kerr. It's so domineering that I can't even say." Saint Lingxiao said appreciatively.
And Nangong Liye is still that indifferent. It seems that all this is expected by him.
Situ Mujin and Bei Minghao on the side smiled helplessly. This girl.
"This. Since Kerr won't. Then you might as well forget it." The Queen Mother said with some embarrassment. She felt as a daughter home. This piano, chess, calligraphy and painting do not say everything. But at least you can learn a thing or two. But this is not going to happen.
"Princess Han really won't. I still don't bother to learn from Yun'er. Do you feel that Yun'er's status is low. The princess doesn't bother to compete with Yun'er." I saw Meng Yunyi finish speaking. He bowed his head slightly.
Her status is low. No kidding. The dignified general's mansion is 2,000 gold. is also the niece of the Queen Mother. This can also be called a lowly status. It is estimated that these people here are in addition to the princess and the princess. It's no different from the palace maid.
"This princess doesn't mean that. It's just that you know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the princess really can't do the same." Han Xiluo blinked innocently. She's telling the truth. She really can't do this ancient qin, chess, calligraphy and painting.
"Could it be that the princess will be different from Yun'er's." Meng Yunyi heard something in her words. Just in her opinion. This qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are nothing more than this. Even if she could, she wouldn't be able to change anything.
But as Yun'er said. This princess will really be different from you." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Han Xiluo's mouth. I have known for a long time that this kind of royal banquet will be like this. Fortunately, I was prepared.
"Oh. Could it be that Ke'er will not succeed in anything else." The Queen Mother asked with some disbelieving. If you want to say that she can't do this piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. So what other talents could she have?
"Yes." Han Xiluo said in an indifferent but unusually firm tone.
"What's going to happen to you?" Nangong Zhen also asked with some expectation at this time. He always felt that she could bring a different kind of surprise.
"The emperor will know when he sees it." Han Xiluo still said lightly.
"Okay." Nangong Zhen just likes her arrogance.
Everyone also shifted their eyes to Han Xiluo. I can't figure out what this Han princess said. This is now so confident to show in public. What the hell is this princess going to do?
Han Xiluo looked around. Finally, his eyes fell on Saint Lingxiao's body.
Meet her gaze. The two looked at each other and smiled. Saint Ling Xiao raised his hand lightly and waved. His secret guard goshawk suddenly appeared beside Han Xiluo. What he was holding in his hand was what Han Xiluo had asked Situ Mujin to make before.
Goshawk handed the things in his hand to Han Xiluo. In an instant, it disappeared again.
Everyone looked at the strangely shaped thing that Han Xiluo was injured. are a little puzzled. What the hell is this? What will the princess do with it?
Nangong Liye has long been surprised. His gaze was still just following hers.
"Kerr. What is this?" The Queen Mother was obviously also curious about what Han Xiluo was in hand.
"That's what Kerr will." Han Xiluo paused slightly. Then he said with a smile; "Jean."
"Jean. You said you had a piano in your hand." There was obvious disbelief in the eyes of the Queen Mother. And there were only a few people who knew her well. They all looked incredulous.
"Yes. It's called a guitar." Han Xiluo said with some incomprehension. Hum. Think you ancients don't know what this guitar is. Today, Miss Ben will let you see and see.
"Guitar." Nangong Zhen muttered softly. How could there be such a quirky name.
"Uh-huh."
"Kerr. Then you hurry up and start performing." Murong Qingyi, who had always been angry, had already thrown his depression out of the clouds at this time. He's unusually interested in what Kerr's hands have.
"Okay." When Han Xiluo's words just fell. The entire hall fell silent. Maybe everyone is the same as Murong Qingyi. I wonder what that thing called a guitar is.
I saw Han Xiluo slowly sitting on the stool that had already been placed. Place the guitar horizontally on your lap.
As she gently plucked the strings on the guitar. This guitar actually produces a mellow and delicate sound. It was a voice they had never heard before. It is two completely different sounds from the guqin.
Han Xiluo's hand began to pluck on the guitar. The beautiful melody like flowing water and clouds suddenly resounded throughout the hall. Sometimes romantic. Sometimes sorrowful. And it's a tune they've never heard before.
When everyone is attracted by the fresh sound. A beautiful and pleasant singing voice suddenly came from my ears:
Walk in the cold and snowy night sky
Selling matches to feed my dreams
Step by step frozen, step by step lonely
The cold of human affection froze my hands
A pack of matches burned my heart
The cold night can't stop the way
The wind pierced my face, and the snow cut my mouth
How long can you walk with your feet
Somebody is going to buy my matches
Who will ignite all the hopes?
Somebody to buy my loneliness
Who's going to fulfill my call to home
Each time a match is lit with a faint glow
Seeing Hopes, Seeing Dreams
I saw my mother in heaven speak
She said you have to be brave, you have to be strong
Don't be afraid, don't panic
So that you don't have to wander again
Each time a match is lit with a faint glow
Seeing Hopes, Seeing Dreams
I saw my mother in heaven speak
She said you have to be brave, you have to be strong
Don't be afraid, don't panic
So that you don't have to wander again
Mommy takes you by the hand and comes home
Sleep in a paradise of warm flowers
Han Xiluo's singing voice is so soft and sweet. But it reveals loneliness and sadness that people can't ignore.
