Chapter 988: Time (3)
Jiaofang Palace.
At this time, it was getting late, and the palace lamps were hanging everywhere in the Jiaofang Palace, and it was bright.
A girl in a vermilion skirt is bowing her head and stroking the piano, the sound of which is smooth and pleasant.
This girl is about 10 years old. It is the half-grown age between a girl and a girl, like a newly dewed bud on a branch, which has not yet bloomed, and has already faintly revealed its demeanor.
The face is also gradually growing, beautiful and delicate with a heroic spirit, and a pair of black and white eyes are shining. Like a rare pearl, it exudes a light that no one can ignore.
The woman who sat and listened was about 20 years old. Her face is beautiful and beautiful, and her lips are full of smiles.
This ten-year-old girl is none other than Aluo.
Sitting on the side and listening, it was naturally Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi's side also has a girl about four years old. This girl has a delicate appearance, dark and clear eyes, and is quite similar to Xie Mingxi, and it is Xie Yuanting's beloved daughter Xie Zijin.
Ah Luo's ten fingers are slender, and when she strokes the piano, she is like a hundred flowers wearing butterflies, which makes people dazzled and amazed.
The boy looked amazed and admired, and sighed softly from time to time: "Cousin A Luo is really amazing!" ”
Xie Mingxi reached out and stroked Zijin's soft hair, smiling silently.
After the end of the song, Ah Luo stood up quite complacently: "Queen Mother, how about this song flat sand and geese?" ”
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly: "It's okay." ”
Ah Luo raised her eyebrows in protest: "Is it just Shang Ke?" "With Xiao Zijin by her side tonight, she is very attentive, plays extraordinarily, and obviously plays very well. The queen mother is really stingy with praise.
A Luo was slightly unconvinced in her heart, and she hung on her face.
Xie Mingxi glanced at A Luo: "You come over and sit with Zijin." I'll play a song for you. ”
Arlo: "......"
As soon as the words fell, a familiar hearty laugh sounded at the door: "I came just in time." Looks like I'm going to be in for a treat tonight. ”
Ah Luo's eyes lit up, and she turned her head happily and shouted, "Senior grandmother." ”
It's Gu Shanchang who is here!
Xie Mingxi also looked over with a smile.
Time seems to be completely frozen in Gu Shanchang's body. Gu Shanchang did not look old, he was still the same as before. There are only a few more strands of silver in the hair.
Gu Shan has lived in the palace for several years, never wearing powder and makeup, and his clothes are very simple and plain. At a glance, it is particularly chic and calm.
Gu Shanchang walked over, Ah Luo grabbed Gu Shanchang's arm, and shook it coquettishly: "Grandmother, I practiced the piano very well tonight, and the queen mother was stingy with praise, only saying that it was okay." ”
Gu Shanchang liked Ah Luo's coquettish appearance the most, and blinked and smiled: "This is too undeserved." Master, I'll count your queen mother in a moment. ”
Then he turned his head and urged: "What is Mingxi still doing in a daze?" Go and stroke a song of flat sand and falling geese, Master hasn't heard you stroke the piano for a long time. ”
Xie Mingxi responded with a smile, walked to the piano and sat down, and pressed the strings lightly with both hands. The fingers move slowly, and the soft, melodious sound pours out from the fingertips.
The fingering is not complicated, but the sound of the piano is becoming more and more light and pleasant, which makes people wander in the warm spring day.
Immediate opinion.
Ah Luoxian was still smiling, but soon he couldn't laugh anymore, flattened his mouth angrily, lowered his head and twisted his fingers.
The boy glanced at Cousin A Luo quietly and comforted him in a low voice: "Cousin A Luo, don't be discouraged. Actually, Cousin Aluo's play is already very good. ”
It's just that my aunt is better at playing the piano.
Gu Shanchang also laughed in a low voice: "Yes! Ah Luo is already very good among his peers. ”
Brother Ji went to Songzhu Academy in two years, and among the children studying in the palace, in terms of qualifications and diligence, Ah Luo is the best.
Ah Luo was in a slightly better mood, and bravely went to the bottom of the question: "Senior grandmother, when the queen mother was ten years old, she was admitted to the Lotus Pond Academy. How am I compared to my mother? ”
Gu Shanchang thought for a while, and said quite tactfully: "If you practice diligently for two more years, it should be almost the same." ”
Arlo: "......"
What should I do if I am more wronged!
Seeing that Ah Luo was depressed, Gu Shanchang couldn't help laughing: "What do you have to do to compete with your mother." As talented as your mother, I have never met a second one in my life. ”
Arlo sighed wistfully.
……
Before the sound of the piano fell, there was another figure at the door.
A young man in his twenties has lost the beauty of his youth, handsome and handsome, and his bearing is impressive.
This young man is none other than Sheng Hong, the son of the Great Qi Heaven.
For more than two years, no matter how busy the government affairs are, Sheng Hong has to spare an hour every night to accompany A Luo to practice martial arts.
It can be said that it is a model of a loving father of Great Qi.
Sheng Hong stood at the door, staring at Xie Mingxi who lowered his head and stroked the piano from a distance.
Xie Mingxi looked up as if he had a heart in his heart. The two of them met their eyes in the air, looking at each other and smiling.
The relationship between husband and wife has not faded with the years, and it has become more mellow like old wine.
A Luo, who was a little depressed, was in a better mood when she saw her father, and got up happily to greet him: "Father, why did you come back so late today?" ”
Sheng Hong looked at his beloved daughter, and his heart was overflowing with the pride and joy of "my family has a girl who will grow up": "Today, I discussed important matters with a few elders, so I came back late." ”
Ah Luo subconsciously asked: "What's the matter?" ”
For more than two years, she has become accustomed to her father coming back before dark. Today is nearly an hour late, and Ah Luo can't help but be curious.
Sheng Hong smiled lightly: "You'll know later." ”
Xie Mingxi knew it in his heart, and he didn't say anything, and followed Sheng Hong's voice and said, "Ah Luo, you go to the martial arts room first." Your father and I will go in a moment. ”
Arlo answered.
The boy was very curious, ran to Cousin Luo, and gently tugged at Alo's sleeve: "Cousin Luo, can I also go to see you practice martial arts?" ”
Ah Luo smiled and pinched the boy's tender little face: "Of course you can." ”
Gu Shanchang also got up happily and accompanied Ah Luo and Xiao Zijin to the martial arts training room.
"You haven't had dinner yet, have you?" Xie Mingxi asked softly, "I'll have some dinner." ”
Sheng Hong nodded slightly: "It's simpler." ”
Ready-made meals are prepared in the dining room, which are always served with warm water. An order was given, and soon, the palace maids presented dinner. Four cold and six hot, a total of 10 dishes.
Sheng Hong was busy all day, hungry, and carrying chopsticks like flying.
Xie Mingxi was distressed and funny when he saw it, and added two meals to Sheng Hong.
After Sheng Hong filled his stomach, the husband and wife got up together and went to the martial arts training room. He whispered in a low voice: "Have you discussed the matter of cutting the feudal domain with the elders?" ”
"Hmm."
"How did the elders react?"
"It's about as expected." Sheng Hong's eyes flashed slightly, and his voice was extremely low: "The elders of the pavilion are not very much in favor, and they use the ancestral practice to not easily break this reason to admonish me, a stubborn son of heaven." ”
