15. Worry
The sound of the pipa is clear, and Xie Ning also listened to it when he didn't enter the palace before - at that time, I only felt that the pipa was not very good to play, noisy, noisy, and only made people feel irritable when they listened to it.
But now it's different. The pipa is different, the people who play the pipa are different, and the places where the pipa is listened to are also different.
The sound of the lute was not at all drowned out by the sound of rain. When it bounced to the excitement, the sound of the rain outside was drowned out.
In contrast, the sound of the flute is like a foil.
There is always a subject in a painting, there is a background. In this piece, the pipa is the main body, and the flute becomes the background.
Shainin had never heard this piece before, so there was no way to compare. But she felt that the pipa was a little too domineering, and the flute was repeatedly compromised.
She looked at the two musicians in front of her, the woman was beautiful, and the red dress looked particularly eye-catching at night. Holding the pipa and sitting sideways on the round stool, his posture was very graceful, which reminded Xie Ning of a picture of drinking and entertainment that he had seen, and the trickster on it was like this.
The flute player is standing, I don't know if it's a coincidence or whatever, he is half standing in the shadow of the pillar, very non-existent, just like the position of his flute in this piece.
The woman playing the pipa held a posture and kept glancing this way.
Xie Ning is not angry at all, the emperor is not hers, and there will be others without this pipa girl.
The age of the pipa girl is not very clear, but her figure is very enchanting, which is not comparable to a young girl like Xie Ning.
After playing the song, the two people who listened to the song expressed their due courtesy. The emperor rewarded him, and Xie Ning also praised him a few words.
And then?
And then there was no more, and the two were sent away together.
It seems that the pipa girl is not the kind that the emperor likes.
After they were sent away, the emperor said to her, "Is the song good?" ”
"That's good." Listening to such a beautiful song on the shore of a rainy lake is really not an ordinary enjoyment. The last time I listened to music, I was also stained with other people's light. This time, the emperor specially called someone to come over and play for her, and he couldn't say bad about this Xie Ning.
"The tune is good, but these two guys don't have their minds on the tune." The emperor is very expert in this: "Next time call Liu Sanniang to play." ”
The Pipa Girl's flattering eyes seemed to be in the wrong direction.
Xie Ning found that he still had some small pleasure in his heart.
Before they knew it, the rain outside had turned light, and they left the Anxi Bridge Pavilion and returned to the Changning Palace.
The rain was still falling from the sky, Xie Ning gently lifted the curtain of the soft sedan chair, and the breeze carried the rain on her face and hair.
The emperor's steps were in front, and he didn't want to see anything when he turned his head, but it was a coincidence that he saw an outstretched arm, and the light of the roadside lamp illuminated her hand, like a bud that bloomed quietly at night, white and crystalline.
Xie Ning retracted his hand, and the raindrops in the palm of his hand were cold and silky, as if they were nothing.
It had rained and the weather was cool, and when Xie Ning was about to get up at night, the emperor stopped her.
Xie Ning was a little surprised, she was only wearing a thin and soft little coat, and the belt was not tied.
It's not early, tomorrow still has to go to the early court.
The emperor didn't hold her to make out again.
She was so fully embraced by him, which showed a special fit.
According to the rules, she can't spend the night with the emperor, but rules are used to destroy things many times. The emperor took the lead and stepped on the rules under his feet, and the outside Si Yu Shang Palace and the eunuchs would never jump out without a look to stop him.
Xie Ning thought that she would definitely not be able to sleep on the dragon bed.
Oddly enough, she fell asleep quickly.
Maybe he was too tired, he slept until dawn, the emperor had already gotten up to go to the morning court, Xie Ning was very embarrassed, and he felt unsteady on the way back.
It felt like he had stolen something and hid it in his arms, for fear that others would see it. But if the time could be rewind to last night and let her choose again, would she choose to lie down, or kneel down and tell the emperor to follow the palace rules and etiquette, and refuse to stay with the emperor all night.
She thought, she would choose the former.
The courtyard of the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion was clean, and the heavy rain washed the bamboo leaves in the yard more and more verdant and green. Qinghe fetched water for her to refresh, waited for her to change her clothes, and asked softly: "Did the talented person talk to the emperor?" ”
Xie Ning was stunned: "What are you talking about?" ”
Qinghe was anxious: "The slave maid specially instructed you when you left yesterday." ”
Oops, she forgot.
Qinghe asked her to tell the emperor about the day of the flower viewing party. It's not to sue Chen Jieyu, it's just to prevent her from biting back at the emperor and blaming all the fault on Xie Ning.
But Shainin forgot to clean it all.
Heavy rain, the lake covered with lotus leaves, the winding bridge flooded by the rain, and the music played in the shadow of candles.
She didn't expect Chen Jieyu's matter at all.
"You really, how can you forget that."
Qinghe was happy for only one night, and fell into anxiety again.
So what can be done? I'll have to wait for the next opportunity.
Who knows when the next one will be? What if Chen Jieyu had met the emperor before this? Qinghe witnessed the whole process at that time, and she was sure that Chen Jieyu would definitely sue the evil situation.
I'm really afraid of something.
A few days after the heavy rain, I heard that Chen Jieyu was summoned.
Qinghe has inquired a lot about Chen Jieyu in the past few days. I often hear people say that only those who know themselves and know each other can win, and they have a grudge against Chen Jieyu, of course, they have to inquire more, and they will be on guard in the future.
Chen Jieyusheng's delicate and moving, this green lotus has been seen at the flower viewing party. Others said that Chen Jieyu was lively and coquettish, and the emperor liked her very much. As for her willful side, of course she will not show it in front of the emperor.
Qinghe lay outside Xie Ning at night, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
Will Chen Jieyu have already sued her talent in front of the emperor? Maybe she will cry and beg in front of the emperor to tell her grievances, and ask the emperor to punish the talented people heavily.
Qinghe was really afraid that as soon as the morning dawned, someone would rush into the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion and detain the talented people and severely punish them. What if that were the case?
Go and beg Grandpa Zhou, I don't know if it's useful or not?
Father-in-law Zhou will definitely not get involved in this muddy water. He is now kind to talents, and that's because the emperor loves talents. If this favor is gone, Grandpa Zhou will definitely turn his face and deny people.
I don't know if I'm scared?
What a great opportunity last time, but I just missed it like that.
Qinghe thought about it and didn't take a nap until it was almost dawn.
She was so anxious, even Qingmei was infected, and she was restless, and when she went to the dining room, she always felt that someone was staring at her behind her, whispering.
Only Shainin remained calm. Qinghe's worries, she understands that Chen Jieyu is very likely to sue.
Xie Ning just felt that the emperor should not be such a person who listened to and believed partially.
