Chapter 617: You Look Down on Me
The tune has reached a high level, the rhythm is so fast that it is overwhelming, and there is only the sound of swords colliding and colliding in my ears, and the figure of the high platform is completely indistinguishable.
As fast as a cheetah, it curves like a stream that falls from a 100-meter-high mountain. Between the hoots, it looks like an electric flint, and the heart of the beholder is beating straight.
With a sharp thud, I don't know whose sword landed, and at the same time, it curved to a melodious sound, and stopped after a while.
The music was still in their ears, and after distinguishing the figures, everyone immediately went to see who had no sword in their hands.
See, Fourth Highness!
The Zhou State came to make their eyes happy, and the courtiers of Qi State were first disappointed, and then thought that people were competing in martial arts, or female generals, and they really came to fight down, and the courtiers of both countries were there, and they were very faceless.
Therefore, I deliberately released water, and when I thought about it, I felt much more comfortable.
There was a loud applause, "Good!" ”
Long Yan was happy, his eyebrows were overjoyed, and his eyes were full of smiles, "Today, I have seen that General Qiu is really a hero in terms of speed and posture!" ”
said, compared a thumbs up, and there was no disappointment that Chu Rin lost.
Compared with the happiness of the envoys of the Zhou State, Qiu Tong's face was solemn, and his eyes, which were originally sharp and full of essence, were dim at the moment, and his heart couldn't help but sink.
The hand tightened his grip on the sword, and he won, but he was not happy at all.
But in front of everyone, she could only put away her sword and said, "Emperor Qi praises." ”
When the words fell, he turned his head to look at Chu Rin, his eyes were dark, "Your Highness is very skilled." ”
In the first dozens of rounds, they were all serious competitions, and when they got to the back, they deliberately released water, when she was a fool?
Chu Rin arched his hand, his expression was still indifferent, and his voice was also faint, "Don't dare to be." ”
With that, he bent down to pick up the sword and withdrew the scabbard, bowed down after saluting, and under the high platform, the guards took the sword.
A moment later, the two of them sat down, one indifferent and cold, the other gloomy and dissatisfied.
At this time, the guzheng had also been withdrawn, and on the high platform, Qin Yun Shufu saluted.
The emperor smiled in his eyes, looked at her eyes, dim and unclear, and tapped his index finger on the dragon chair.
Grandpa Sun, who was waiting beside him, knew that whenever the emperor had such a demeanor, he was thinking about something important.
"Now, Qin girl is seventeen, right? In the blink of an eye, eighteen. ”
Speaking of this, a smile jumped into his brows and looked at Qin Zheng in the seat.
"The best time for a girl's family to get married is fifteen to eighteen. Taifu, even if you are reluctant, you should plan. ”
It's like a joke, but it means something.
Qin Zheng's heart was cold, and he hurriedly got up, "What the emperor said is reasonable. ”
No longer directly refuted as before, but followed, and everyone looked sideways.
Could it be that there are already candidates, so to say, it is to let out the rumors, the girl of the Qin family is about to get married?
With a gentle word, it seemed to have fried the pot, and the ladies listened to the words clearly, and their eyes couldn't help but widen.
They all know that Qin Yunshu is famously difficult to deal with, so who will she approve of if Taifu agrees?
Compared with the Qin family's son-in-law, what makes them even more puzzled is who that man is!
Shocked in vain, all kinds of complicated emotions overflowed, and at this moment, a clear woman's voice sounded from the high platform.
"Your Majesty, today the envoy of the Zhou Kingdom is coming, Princess Shimin has entered the palace, and the family affairs of the courtiers cannot be discussed."
After a few words, he ended the topic, then saluted, turned around and got off the high platform.
A burst of hearty laughter came from the dragon throne, and I saw the emperor shaking his head, looking at Qin Zheng with a little more joke in his eyes, "Your daughter, you have taught me a lesson." ”
That being said, there is not the slightest hint of blame in the words.
Soon, the dancing girl went up to the high platform, played music and danced, and the banquet continued, lively, as if it had just happened, but the clouds and smoke were scattered as soon as they drifted.
When Qin Yunshu sat down, he suddenly stretched out a hand under the table, grabbed her, and turned his head to see Qiu Tong looking at her fixedly.
"I didn't know that you had such a different temperament."
I thought that she was the same as other family girls, but her status was a little higher, her ability was stronger, and she followed the rules in other aspects.
Unexpectedly, he refuted Emperor Qi in person, but Emperor Qi was not angry.
Qin Yunshu found that her hand strength was very strong, comparable to that of a man, and she couldn't move at all when she grabbed her all of a sudden.
"Don't earn it unless I let it go."
Qiu Tong said softly, then let go, and Qin Yunshu stopped at this time.
"What is that song called?"
The rhythm is very good, and she plans to train in the future, so she can call a pianist to play it, and she can train the speed.
Qiu Tong is very skilled, but in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she can't get on the stage, she has been in the military camp since she was a child, and she doesn't understand those of the family girls' association.
This kind of music is not something that can be played by any pianist, looking at the entire Qijing, Qin Yunshu is alone.
"Improvised."
Although the rhythm of the competition is controlled by the rhythm of music, how can it be so when you really go on stage? She adjusted the speed as she watched the two of them.
Qiu Tong didn't expect it, squinted his eyes, and the wine cup was dangling in his hand carelessly, "Just make it up?" ”
"Almost, no score, and I don't remember it now."
Qin Yunshu said lightly, and the palace maid behind her stepped forward to prepare vegetables for her, and there were many small plates in front of her.
Picking up the chopsticks and eating slowly, at this moment, the envoys of the Zhou State began to drink again and rarely ate vegetables.
Qiu Tong stared at her with a pair of beautiful eyes, and only took it back after a long time, raised his head to drink, and then looked through the aisle, his eyes were sharp.
I am worried about not revealing my true skills and deliberately releasing water.
knocked, the wine cup slammed down on the table, and the drinking envoys stopped their movements violently and looked at each other.
Qiu Tong has already gotten up, "Breathe." ”
The two words fell, and the person had turned around and walked out of the banquet.
Qin Yunshu watched her tall figure disappear into the moonlight, the high stage dance music continued, and then the opera, more than half of the banquet, many courtiers in the Zhou Kingdom began to guess boxing.
Compared with the well-behaved courtiers of Great Qi, here ......
Qin Yunshu frowned slightly, only to feel that he was full of wine, and he got up after a while.
Everyone glanced at her and didn't ask out loud.
Out of the banquet, walking towards the secluded place of the palace, the path she picked, there were not many palace maids, and in the end, she was alone.
The air was instantly fresh, there were no red lanterns, only the bright moonlight sprinkled on the ground.
The woods on the left, the lake pavilion meadow on the right, and many rockeries, the night breeze hits people.
Looking up at the full moon, I suddenly remembered Chu Liuli, I don't know how she is doing in Zhou Kingdom? What progress has Zhou Wuce made?
When I took a deep breath and was about to raise my eyes to look around, I heard a delicate woman's voice of deep reprimand.
"Chu Rin, you look down on me!"
In an instant, Qin Yunshu's breath was suffocated, how could it be so coincidental that she met Qiu Tong, and there were four princes standing opposite her.
The two stood by the lake, looking at each other.
"The battle six years ago was immediately apparent."
A deep word, indifferent as ice.
Only then did Qin Yunshu understand that the two had known each other six years ago, during the Battle of Qi Zhou, and they should have competed at that time.
Listening to the tone of the four princes, Qiu Tong lost back then, and now he doesn't admit defeat.
"It's been six years, how do you know how good I am in the past six years?"
"It's the same."
"You!"
She could tell that Qiu Tong was annoyed.
In the end, the two of them have a private matter, isn't it okay for her to peek? After thinking for a moment, she quietly stepped back.
