Chapter 111: Yang Chun
“…… Little Lord? Su Bai saw that Pillow Spring was half-leaning and half-leaning under a plane tree, and his expression was silent.
Pillow Chun moved when he heard the sound, and turned his head to look at the peach blossom forest, there was no one there.
Su Bai was afraid that she was uncomfortable from the dampness of the flower dew, so he stepped forward and gently helped her up: "Why don't you sit here now, there are insects and ants in the trees." ”
Pillow Chun slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, pressed his flat lower abdomen, and said lightly: "If it's not in the way, it's not so expensive." Her eyes darkened, and she said softly, "You go and invite Sister Liu and Sister Lian to come and say that I have something important to discuss." ”……
This year is the seventh year of prayer. At the end of spring this year, something strange happened.
Xue Taifu, the head of the Xue clan in Lejing, celebrates his birthday. When Xue Taifu was in power, he was also a figure who turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands for rain, and he was once assisted by the first emperor with Lao Shangshuling, who was crowned as a prince.
Xue Taifu is a person with considerable political merits, and he can be called the leader of Lejing in terms of talent and learning, and he is also very relied on by the emperor in terms of political strategy. He is good at raising Zhang Zhong and pro-agriculture, and the reason why the Great Wei is rich is inseparable from the seven chapters of changes drawn up by Xue Taifu during his reign. The most important thing is that this Mrs. Xue can understand current affairs.
The first emperor appointed virtuous ministers, and also attached great importance to the two emperors of Lao Shangshu and Xue Taifu. The new emperor Mu Beiyi, who can ascend the throne, has a much sharper temperament, although he selects talents and talents, but he is also quite suspicious, or cutting the feudal domain or centralizing power. It was not as easy as it was when the emperor was in power. Mrs. Xue retreated bravely and asked himself to tell his old age, which made him famous for his first life, and left a smooth path for the future of the Xue family.
In Lejing, Mrs. Xue's birthday is also a well-known and lively event. As a prosperous family in Lejing, the Xue family must have high-ranking officials and princes from all over the world to congratulate the patriarch of the clan every time he celebrates his birthday. This year's strange thing is that there are several congratulatory gifts from the powerful people of the dynasty who came to send them are very precious, and it is also said that the Xue concubine is quite friendly with her master in the palace, and the affection is extraordinary, so she congratulates her with generous gifts.
Xue Taifu originally thought that Xue Yuangui, the concubine of the clan, was the imperial concubine, and naturally had many friends in the palace. After careful questioning, I learned that everyone else came because of Xiao Xue, the concubine who gave birth to a princess.
Among them are the Liu family, the Liu family, the Shangshu Zuo Cheng family, who have been very prominent in recent years, and the Jing Zhaorong family, who gave birth to the only two princes today.
This incident made the Xue family look at the little Xue family, who was sent to the palace and was quite favored.
The Da Xue family has been in the palace for many years and has not come out, although he is now the imperial concubine, he is always one step away from the throne. On the contrary, this concubine Xiao Xue gave birth to the third daughter of the emperor in less than three years after entering the palace, and now she is friendly with so many concubines, and she is still the favor of the harem.
After the news of this incident came out, many harem concubines and royal mothers came to congratulate each other, saying that their daughters were familiar with Xiao Xue's family and came to congratulate each other. For example, the Meng family, the maiden family of Yu Guiyi, who gave birth to the eldest princess, and the Ye family, the master of Si Tiantai, who is behind the new celebrity concubine......
Almost the entire inner palace concubines' maiden families said that they were close to Xiao Xue's family and sent congratulatory gifts. In this way, there are rumors in Lejing that "the big Xue family is unpopular, and the small Xue family is exquisite".
Unexpectedly, at the end of the banquet, the Wen family, the queen mother's mother, also sent a congratulatory gift. It is said that "Xue's Chu Ling is very filial to serve the Queen Mother and is in harmony with Concubine Rong." The Wen family was instructed by the Empress Dowager to come to express their gratitude. ”
Although the Xue family did not have a few rumors, they valued the little Xue family more and despised the big Xue family. But now that the Da Xue family has nothing to do, it is inevitable that they will re-examine the future of these two daughters.
Pillow Chun got the family letter, and folded it into the makeup.
Su Bai held the lamp brightly reflecting the white face of Pillow Chun, and asked: "The imperial concubine is the best at killing people with a knife, and the little master's discordant plan is also wonderful. ”
Pillow Chun shook his head: "I'm not trying to separate the big and small Xue clans, I'm afraid the two of them have long been at odds." I am afraid that Princess Zirujun was born, and the Xiao Xue clan made up their minds to tear their faces with the big Xue clan. She gently wiped the red lip grease off her lips, "The foundation of the Xue clan is deep, and it is not as easy to shake as the previous Concubine Shi clan. To choke the lifeblood of the Great Xue family is to separate her from the entire Xue family. The Great Xue clan has no heirs, and now the little Xue clan is very gracious, only the Xue clan really doubts the value of the Great Xue clan, and can overthrow the reliance of the Great Xue clan. ”
Su Bai nodded, with a relieved smile on his face: "The little master is different from the past now. ”
Pillow Chun's expression was a little blank: "I'm tired of this...... Su Bai. She took off the hairpin from her head and said, "Serve me and sleep." ”
General Su Bai scattered the bun of clouds on the pillow spring's head, and heard Xiao Xizi reply outside the curtain: "Little master, Your Majesty has entered the inner palace today, and the lamp has been raised. ”
Pillow Chun raised his eyebrows: "Who?" ”
Xiao Xizi replied respectfully: "It's not the little master of the painting Tang, Your Majesty is the eldest daughter of the Lang family of the Criminal Department, the beauty Su." ”
"Oh......" Pillow Chunfu lowered his eyes again. That's to be expected.
A few days after Su Meiren went to bed, Wang Meiren and An Huatang, who had just entered the palace, went to bed as usual. All three were rewarded, but they were also mediocre, with neither titles nor promotions. The rest of the time, Mu Beiyi mostly rested on Xiao Xue's side, and Pillow Chun knew the reason, but everyone in the inner palace also saw that Xiao Xue's favor was different from others. After a few more days, the concubine was completely injured, and she took the lead again.
The limelight of pillow spring is gradually weakening, and when the weather is hotter and the eightfold black dragon begins to accumulate buds, Mu Beiyi is rarely seen. She could be at leisure, reading in the yard, reading, looking, or reading.
There is one in it, which records the rare and famous pianos hidden in various music halls and music workshops in Lejing, and one of them is particularly interesting. The book says that there was a master of the qin in the former Li Dynasty, and there was a Zhongni-style lyre with cinnabar antler frost, the name was "Zhihe", and the guqin was originally made by the qinist with all his life's strength, and the treasure dedicated to the Son of Heaven was taken from the meaning of the emperor's "Zhongzheng and peace". After the Mu family won the world, he emphasized martial arts and strict laws, and this bed was not favored by the son of heaven of the Mu family, so it has been dusty in the teaching workshop of the imperial city.
Cinnabar antler cream? This is quite unusual. Pillow Spring is not good at playing the piano, and if he can pluck out one or two songs of spring and white snow, he is already trying to be elegant. But when they were young, their brothers practiced the piano very diligently, and they looked good-looking and had beautiful vocal music. The eldest brother has a Fuxi style called "Hanchun Mountain", and the second brother has a thunderbolt style called "Xingchun Thunder", and the two of them deliberately took the name of Pillow Spring, in order to please her.
It's just that the pianos of the brothers are not famous, but they are made by famous craftsmen...... As for the cinnabar antler cream, I have never seen it. Pillow Chun remembered that when he was a teenager, he was curious again, so he called Xiao Xizi: "You go to the palace club to ask, if there is a Zhihe guqin, if there is one, borrow it for the owner to play with." ”
Xiao Xizi answered, but she didn't come back for a whole hour.
Pillow Chun waited a little tired, and he was tired of reading books, so he only looked up at the flowers on his head like sparse stars, and simply folded the royal blue skirt. At the beginning of May, the eightfold black dragon will not open, looking at the dense buds ready to release. Pillow spring tiptoe got two branches, both fresh with floral fragrance. She pinched a purple ink stamen, proudly hairpinned her hair, and then pulled the petals in her skirt to find Magnolia, shouting: "Magnolia, can you come and take a look, this flower may be in the food?" ”
A cold voice came: "The petals of the vine can be refined into sesame oil grate, but the stems must be carefully planted to be slightly poisonous and inedible." ”
Pillow Chun looked back, slightly stunned, and a loose petal fell to the ground in his hand. She straightened the hem of her skirt and laughed, "Why is Mr. Nothing?" ”
Mr. Void carries an inky satin piano bag and wears a light cyan tunics. He arched his hand, looked at his nose and nose and saluted heartily: "Ming Guiyi passed on the Zhihe guqin collected by the music department, and his subordinates led the errand in the sitting department, and this bed of qin was managed by the micro-ministers." Zhihe guqin has been some years, you should be careful and careful, the little master wants to play, should be sent for you. ”
Xiao Xizi Tian, who followed behind, said: "There are too many instrumental music in the club, but I have been looking for a while. ”
Pillow Chun gently plucked half of the petals on his shoulder, and his eyes swept over the tips of Mr. Nothing's light brown hair. Her heart jumped, and she hurriedly only looked down at the bluestone in the courtyard: "There is Mr. Lao." After thinking about it, he didn't invite Mr. Void into the inner hall, but only called Yulan to set up a few cases in the courtyard to serve tea, and then sat down a foot away from Mr. Nothing.
Mr. Void took the piano bag from his back, put the case in order, and then cleaned his hands and burned incense before taking the piano body out. This is not the end, it is another good dress.
Pillow Chun smiled: "Sir, this set is very particular. ”
Mr. Void was faint, as if he didn't see joy or anger, and only said: "The rules of the club." ”
"It's just pleasing yourself, why do you need so many variety. To Guqin Xin said, let future generations make so many tricks. Pillow Chun leaned closer to the small case, his face was mottled with light and shadow, and looked at the red guqin under Mr. Nothing. The whole body of the qin was faintly shining red, as if it was covered with blood. She snorted softly, "This color is rare. ”
"The lacquer is made of antler frost, filled with cinnabar, and rubbed on the fir wood for thousands of years, so as to get this dazzling red." Mr. Void wiped the piano and pressed the strings with both hands, "What do you want to hear?" ”
Pillow Chun smiled: "I'm just idle to see a fresh, and I don't mean to call Mr. to show his skills." ”
Mr. Void disagreed: "A certain person is not like that, if the little master shouts and sacrifices, such and such will be called sick." ”
Pillow Chun knew that Mr. Void was a noble-hearted person, so he also agreed to his meaning, and thought about it for a while: "Mr. has already heard the pipa, and I want to thank Mr. for that." The main ...... I have two older brothers. The brothers each have a piano, the eldest brother is "Hanchun Mountain", and the second brother is called "Awakening Spring Thunder". When I was young, I listened to my brothers play the piano, and most of them were from mountains and rivers, flat sand and geese. Sir, do you have a new one? ”
Mr. Nothingness laughed. Mu Beiyi rarely smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved when he laughed, and suddenly the mountains and rivers withered and the spring was colorless.
"Sir...... Laugh at something. ”
"The old was also new." The corners of Mr. Nothing's mouth were hooked when he smiled, and there was a galaxy in his eyes, and he said: "If you don't guess wrong, can there be a spring character in the little master's boudoir?" ”
In the Great Wei Kingdom, men and women are not very strict, and the name of the boudoir is not completely unnamed, so Pillow Chun admitted: "Exactly, how does Mr. know?" ”
"When I see the little master, I feel bright, like a willow wind that blows on the face." He spoke clearly without any frivolity, "Besides, the little master's words are now clear, and when he talks about the spring breeze and spring thunder, I think it is the name that the brothers in the clan have proposed for the little master." That being the case, a certain will play a song for the small lead. ”
Mr. Nothing's spring is here. It was as clear as the handful of snow that first melted in the northland, and the spirit that melted on the tip of the heart suddenly fell to the tail of the string and trembled. His piano sound is neither lead nor soot, and he sits under the head of the eightfold black dragon and leaves an independent appearance. I often hear it, and I used it when I was young, but I didn't feel that there was such a warmth coming out of my heart at any moment. In the past, I saw the morning and twilight rolls or rain and wind pieces, but at this moment it sounds extremely gentle, and the world is vast. Such a faint piano sound, but it makes Pillow Spring a little inexplicable. Everything in the sound of the piano is alive, as if returning to the time of youth.
If you want to say it, it is a dream when you read it when you were eleven or twelve. She dreams that her future husband is a hero of the world, riding a bloody BMW, wearing a majestic pheasant comb, and taking her to reach everything in the mountains, rivers and seas. At that time, she saw the little man on horseback drawn in the script, wearing dark armor. At that time, she sat in the courtyard of Anfu and smelled the fragrance of the rejuvenation of the grass and trees. That's how it feels. Such a down-and-out girlish feeling and pure tenderness.
Pillow Chun tried not to be alarmed, and the handkerchief in his hand was gently pressed on his chest. The seven strings vibrate, unable to withstand the wild beating of the pillow spring's heart and the burning of the blood.
He finished the song.
"Mr. has outstanding skills, and he is peaceful with the guqin, and he is the best match for it." Pillow Chun lowered his head and smiled, trying to hide the afterglow of amazement.
Mr. Nothingness said: "If the little master likes it, he can leave the guqin to play on weekdays." If the guqin is dusted in the club, it is a pity. ”
Pillow Chun hesitated, but said: "Such antler frost and cinnabar lacquer are naturally rare, and what you see in your eyes is also joyful." It's just that this style is too manly for me. I am a petty and lazy person, where can I play such a proper sage's harp. Saying that, he remembered the old piano he played with when he was a child, "When I was young, I had the simplest fitting style, and I liked the simple one." The harp of a mortal is made like a mortal, so that all who play the harp in the world are attributed to the harp. ”
When Mr. Void heard her say this, he was also happy, and said, "That's fine, Weichen will send this piano back to the club." ”
Pillow Chun nodded, and called Xiao Xizi again: "Go and get the ...... in the inner hall" She wanted to reward according to the rules, but she thought of Mr. Nothing's temperament, so she stopped, "Go and send Mr. Nothing." ”
"Farewell." Mr. Void saluted, and followed Xiao Xizi out of Qiyunxuan from the corridor with blue paint and red tiles.
Pillow Chun looked up at the vine flowers in the garden, and his heart was uneasy.
Wonderful!
