Chapter Seventy-Six: The Sound of the Piano on a Moonlit Night
"It's still my mother who loves me. Jing Ying grabbed the fat woman's arm, narrowed her triangular eyes, and said viciously. "You can't be cheaper, that slut!"
"That's natural, you relax your heart, how much wind and waves can she make as an orphan girl now? This Jing Yu has always been a good person, but she is just a concubine of Gongzi Cheng, what are you afraid of her!" The fat woman patted Jing Ying's hand, and her triangular eyes were full of calculation and contempt for Jing Ying. "Let me think about it, since she robbed you of your wealth, we must not let her have a good time!"
"Mother is very right! I can't spare her!" Jing Ying smiled and pulled her mother into the inner room, and the mother and daughter were so crooked.
How Jing Ying's mother and daughter calculated Ye Ziyi will not be mentioned for the time being, but only Ye Ziyi, who entered the Gongzi's Mansion.
At this time, it was the beginning of tomorrow, when the lights were shining, Gongzi's mansion was busy, Ye Ziyi was sent into the dormitory by Gongzicheng, and she never saw him again.
Along the way, there are few servants walking, the bluestone paved path under the moonlight is as quiet as no one, looking at the pines and cypresses and plum blossoms around her, smelling the light fragrance, Ye Ziyi slowly let go of her thoughts, and her pace slowly slowed down, until she walked to the familiar garden, she stood outside the garden, looking at the scenery in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Three years, it seems that no time has passed in this son's mansion, this place, the pavilions are still the same, the forest paths are dyed with frost, but the people are the same, things are no longer the reckless girl who didn't understand anything.
Ye Ziyi walked slowly in the garden under the moonlight, and suddenly gave birth to a lot of emotion, she was young and ignorant back then, but she was also fearless, at that time she could do whatever she wanted in this son's mansion, and she didn't know what kind of crisis that would bring to herself, at that time, he was quite tolerant of her, but he didn't have half affection.
Come to think of it, if it weren't for the escape that day, she and Gongzicheng wouldn't have been able to get to where they are today, right?
Fate is such an interesting thing, going round and round, always sending people to the same place, He and her beginning were not so good, but now they are unwilling to separate like glue, I don't know what the next three years will be like? Can she still stay by his side?
Thinking of this, Ye Ziyi's nose was sour, her eyes were blurred for a while, she took out a handkerchief and dipped the tears that welled up in the corners of her eyes, and looked at the brightly lit main hall in the garden.
Because Tianshi has to deal with the affairs of the current world to deal with the advisers and the officials of the left near Daohe, Gongzi Cheng has not been idle for a moment since he returned to Gongzi's mansion, except for the two hours when he went to the suburbs to pick her up, he has been sleepless, it has been a day and a night.
Ye Ziyi sighed lightly, gathered the fox fur cloak on his body, and sat on the stone bed in the garden.
It is not easy to help Gongzicheng get out of trouble, in this era of closed news, it is too difficult to know current affairs and grasp the news, she has no one under her now, and fortunately she met those few homeless people on the road, tomorrow no matter what, she has to meet them to see if these people can help her, if it is really useful, then she will have to arrange it well.
Rubbing her aching temples, Ye Ziyi only felt that her head was a little dizzy, she stood up and was about to walk back, but she heard a melodious guqin sound not far away.
The moonlight is bright, the breeze is shallow, the lights are set against the backdrop of the night, the dry forest is more ancient, the trail is dyed with frost and white, so at night, although a song of 'wind and thunder' is not the scene, but it adds a bit of artistic conception in this night.
Ye Ziyi stood in place and listened for a while, feeling that the person played the song deeply, and the timbre of the piano was also excellent, so she couldn't help but walk towards the place where the song came from.
The music came from behind a rockery not far from her, and after turning the rockery, after walking for a short time, Ye Ziyi found the source of the sound from behind a clump of dead bamboo.
Next to the stone pavilion behind the withered bamboo, the person who plays the piano is sitting on the long steps of a corridor, under the moonlight, the person is covered with frost in blue clothes, his hair is like new ink, he sits on the short steps of the bluestone and closes his eyes and caresses the qin, at first glance, the picture is full of poetic and picturesque feelings.
It is rare to encounter such an elegant thing, Ye Ziyi curiously took two steps closer, and looked at this person's good life, and saw that the person who played the piano was in his twenties, with a scarf and cloth clothes, with wide shoulders and a narrow waist, a slightly square face with Chinese characters, eyebrows like sharp swords, thin lips and shaved nose, sitting on the ground with his eyes slightly closed, cross-legged and fingers, and really had a bit of everyone's bearing.
This person Ye Ziyi had never seen it, and she didn't know if it was a doorman or a musician in the house, she didn't dare to make a sound, she only walked a few steps forward lightly, seeing that he was fascinated, she lowered her eyes and slowly walked up the spacious steps, walked lightly to the jade railing between the cloisters and sat down, lying on the railing and listening to this person playing the qin.
With the slightly dull timbre of the guqin gushing out, Ye Ziyi's futile heart slowly calmed down, she closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the piano quietly, and her tense spirit gradually relaxed, only to feel that the gravity of the thousand catties on her body just now had turned into invisible, and her body and mind were light.
I don't know how long it took, but the sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and everything was quiet for a while, but it was still unfinished.
When he opened his eyes, Ye Ziyi subconsciously looked at the person who played the piano, the man just stood up to collect the piano, raised his eyes and faced her, seeing Ye Ziyi staring at him, this person also looked at her, and saw Ye Ziyi combing the woman's hairstyle, he arched his hand. "The mountain people are casual, disturbing the beautiful woman, don't see the crime. ”
"Sir's piano is played exquisitely, and it is the concubine's blessing that she can hear the good music on such a starry and moonlit night. Ye Ziyi stood up, bent down towards him, and said with a smile. "Swept Mr. Yaxing, it is Aye's crime, please don't blame Mr. ”
"Ji Yan is heavy, beautiful woman on a moonlit night, how can Qu be disappointed if he can't ask for it?" The young man surnamed Qu was also easy-going, holding the piano and walking up the stairs, and walked up the corridor.
This person walked a little unnaturally, he nodded his right foot and walked to stand three feet away from Ye Ziyi, looking at her with a smile, the smile was very amiable.
The night wind blew, blowing straight to this person's wide sleeves fluttering, the scarf belt flowing, in addition to the heroic, there is a bit of bone fairy wind.
Ye Ziyi kept looking at him, looking at it, and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was a little familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it, just looking at his moist eyes, he always felt familiar.
Is it Jing Wei's old acquaintance? This person speaks with a Wei Di accent, I think it may be someone Jing Yu has seen before, Jing Wei has a good memory, and he will never forget it, he should be an old acquaintance, but now she is not suitable for recognizing relatives and reminiscing about the past.
Thinking of this, Ye Ziyi bent over and lowered her eyes. "Mr. thought he was a distinguished guest of the son, and Ah Ye was abrupt, so he didn't bother the gentleman Yaxing and retired. ”
"It's rare to have a bosom friend, if Ji is free, how about listening to Qu play another song?" The young man surnamed Qu stopped Ye Ziyi, who was about to leave, and placed the piano in his hand on the small platform of the jade fence, and arched his hand. "Please advise. ”
"Don't dare, this is the luck of Ah Ye, I don't dare to accept the word teaching. People have already said so, and Ye Ziyi can't refuse too harshly, so she has to stop and bend down to return the salute.
"So, thank you. The young man surnamed Qu smiled, his handsome face was like the daylight radiating in the dark night, which warmed people's hearts.
"Sir is gracious. Ye Ziyi lowered her head, took two steps back, and stood in the shadow of the pillar, which was thick and hugged by a person, just blocking her slender body.
Seeing that Ye Ziyi was hiding so skillfully, the young man surnamed Qu smiled. "Ji Haosheng is cautious. ”
"It's such a dark night, I just want to guard against the mouth of the villain, and become the beauty of a gentleman, please don't blame Mr. Since Mr. is interested, please play the music, and the concubine is willing to hear the good song again. "Ye Ziyi said this very cleverly, at night, I just prevent the villain from talking nonsense, make you happy, don't think too much, friend, hurry up and play the piano, I'm waiting here to listen to the music."
Hearing Ye Ziyi's answer, the young man laughed and high-fived. "Okay! It's wonderful! The beauty in the mansion of the prince is really different! It's much happier than those vulgar girls, and she has the style of my generation, hahahaha......"
Ye Ziyi: "......"
Was what she just said funny? No? Just telling the truth, how could she laugh like this?
Intuitively, this person seemed to be a chivalrous man, Ye Ziyi didn't want to cause trouble, so she stood quietly in the shadows, lowering her eyes and saying nothing.
The young man surnamed Qu smiled, took the piano from the jade railing, sat cross-legged on the ground and straightened his robe, put the simple and simple Fuxi qin on his lap, he adjusted his breathing, closed his eyes and waved his fingers to play.
The sound of the piano was slow, like the murmuring of water, and the white moonlight fell on him along the corridor, half dark, half bright, and the figure of the young man was like a dream.
"There are plums, in fact, seven Xi. Ask me to be a gentleman, and I will be lucky. There are plums, in fact, there are three. Ask me to be a gentleman, and I will be in the future. There are plums, and they are baskets. Ask me to be a gentleman, and I will say it. ”
The young man's voice is pure and melodious, with a thick Wei sound, clear and soft, very beautiful, and he sings "You Mei" in the Book of Poetry.
The piano music was played very well, but Ye Ziyi listened to it, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, she looked up at the young man, but saw that his bright phoenix eyes were looking at her steadily, and the smile on the corner of her lips was faint, and she saw Ye Ziyi frowning slightly.
At this time, in Gongzi's mansion, this young man played and sang this song to her concubine, which was really out of place, but in the unrestrained Wei land, this is not out of line, it is a normal way to pursue women.
Jing Yu was born in the Wei Kingdom, Ye Ziyi naturally knew this, the young man openly showed her favor like this, she didn't mean that, she couldn't listen to it anymore, she bowed down at the moment to show her refusal, took two steps back, turned around and left.
Seeing Ye Ziyi leaving, the young man shook his head, sighed, and changed the tune, but it was changed to "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix".
Hearing that he changed the tune, Ye Ziyi didn't care, she didn't know what this person meant, so she simply ignored him, and strolled away along the cloister without looking back.
