Concubine Hui left Changchun Palace, sat on the sedan chair and thought for a moment, then said, "Mo Xin, you take this Xuanhu skin back to the palace first." Caizhu and Caiyue stayed and accompanied the palace to visit the emperor in the Yangxin Palace. ”

Mo Xin agreed "yes", and asked Caizhu and Caiyue to take care of it, so she went back first.

Regardless of the slippery road behind the snow, Concubine Hui urged the eunuch who carried the sedan chair twice, and hurried to the Heart Cultivation Palace. When he arrived at the gate of the Yangxin Palace, Wang Qin saw that it was Hui Guifei who came, so he hurriedly greeted him and helped Hui Guifei get off the sedan chair with his own hand, and said in a stacked voice: "Guifei Niangniang carefully slips the steps, just the hand of the slave." ”

Concubine Hui smiled like a pear vortex: "There is a prince of Lao." At this time, what is the emperor doing? ”

Wang Qin smiled a lot: "The concubine came just in time, the emperor took a nap and got up to approve the recital, and now she is resting." I picked a few singers from the Nanfu music class, and they were playing the pipa. ”

Concubine Hui smiled and said, "The emperor is so Yaxing, I'm afraid of disturbing the emperor when I go into this palace." ”

Wang Qin said with a smile: "When it comes to music and rhythm in this palace, who can compare to Niangniang?" If you weren't afraid of slippery roads in snowy weather, the emperor would definitely invite you to come. ”

Only then did Concubine Hui Guifei say: "Then Father-in-law Lao will go and say goodbye." ”

Wang Qin agreed. Concubine Hui stood under the corridor for a while, and sure enough, she heard the pipa ringing inside, and she was distracted, and Wang Qin had come out to invite her.

Because the emperor was listening to the music, she entered the palace very lightly, and saw the emperor sitting in the warm pavilion, closing his eyes and beating the beat. A few steps away, there are three or five pipa players, dressed in feather blue palace yarn, holding a pipa to block half of the face, and the slender ten fingers are flying like white butterflies.

Seeing that the emperor was not aware of her arrival, Concubine Hui also lowered her hand and stood aside and listened quietly. When the song ended, Fang Ya had seen the emperor.

When the emperor saw her coming, he was very happy, took her hand and sat down together, and said, "I wanted to ask you to come and listen to the pipa together, but I was afraid that it would be cold outside, so you were already afraid of the cold." The emperor said with concern, "I ordered Imperial Doctor Qi to regulate your body for you, do you feel okay now?" ”

Concubine Hui lowered her eyebrows and smiled: "Although the concubine is weak, she has the emperor's care, and I think it's okay." So I came here today to take a trip to the Heart Cultivation Palace. ”

The emperor held her hand, and his eyes sank slightly: "My hands are still so cold." Wang Qin, ask someone to add two more braziers, and carefully expose the concubine to the cold. ”

Concubine Hui was originally weak and invincible, and the emperor was so concerned that she was a little more coquettish: "The emperor is vigorous, and the concubine is beside him, and he feels much better." ”

There was a warm smile between the emperor's eyebrows and eyes, and he said, "Sit well, and it will warm up." After that, he pointed to a few pipa players and said, "You were listening to it just now, what do you think?" ”

Hui Guifei said Jiaoyingying: "Now there is no good pipa player in Nanfu?" Choose these to give the emperor a reward, and you are not afraid of polluting the emperor's ears? ”

When the pipa musicians heard this, they couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt.

The emperor raised his hand, motioned for them to step aside, and said with a slight smile: "Speaking of pipa, with you as a national player here, can I still listen to other people's plays?" It's just that you're not here, so just listen to someone else play a few songs. ”

Concubine Hui smiled brightly, looking more and more radiant, and the room was full of spring. She casually took the phoenix-necked pipa used by one of the pipa players, and said with a slight suspicion: "Why is Nanfu so generous now?" Is this kind of phoenix-necked pipa inlaid with ivory also used by ordinary pipa playmakers? ”

The smile on the corner of the emperor's lips froze slightly, and the pipa who retreated to the side said boldly: "The slave and maid skills are not good, which will inevitably pollute the emperor's hearing, so the best pipa is specially used." ”

Concubine Hui glanced at her contemptuously, and saw that the pipa was only twenty-eight years old, and although her appearance was not outstanding, she had a beautiful taste, and she was a little unhappy in her heart: "If you don't have real skills, even if you use the pipa of the Southern Tang Dynasty, it's just a tyrannical thing." ”

The pipa was a little timid, and stood aside with his head bowed. Hui Guifei looked at it, among the instrumental music used by the pipa, only this phoenix-necked pipa had the clearest timbre, so she hugged the pipa horizontally, gently tuned the strings, tried to correct each note, and then began to twist slowly and slowly, allowing the rhythm to rotate like a bead, staggered and slipping between the fingers, condensing into a clear spring murmuring under the leaves between the flowers, and like a bird whispering between the throats of the flowers, the endless lingering lightness, as if the cold outside the window swept away, only the spring light remained, and it did not go.
