Volume 1 Spoiling Chapter 16 Chinese New Year's Eve Feast
After half a burnt incense, Chunxi wore a purple long skirt and went up to the stage with her feet. The previous two small heads were also put down, and the decorations on the heads were also removed one by one, and they were simply fixed with hairpins. Mu Hui was already sitting under the stage with the pipa in her arms, just waiting for her to signal.
"There's a reluctant request." Chun Xi looked at Xuan Ye with a smile: "The concubine heard the sound of Prince Yu's flute, and the emperor can play the drum, I don't know if I can move." ”
Xuan Ye laughed when he heard this, and said to Prince Yu Fuquan, who was sitting not far away: "Is the imperial brother wishing?" ”
"But it's up to the emperor to decide." Fu Quan got up and returned. I saw that the performance of this noble man was already good, and now he is full of confidence, and he is willing to participate in this good show.
Chun Xi took a closer look at Prince Yu, but he was really a rumored beautiful man, with a face that was seven points similar to Xuan Ye, and the chic and uninhibited revealed between his eyebrows and eyes looked like a fairy from a painting. Because it was a family banquet, he did not wear court clothes, but only a crescent white robe, which showed his fair skin. Chun Xi suddenly remembered that Han Ji was here, such a man is afraid that only such a woman is worthy of it. Chun Xi glanced at Fu Jin next to him again, and sighed in his heart: It's just a pity.
"The mourning family is the master. It may have been a long time since the mourners had seen your two brothers play together. Without waiting for Xuan Ye to speak, the Empress Dowager had already agreed.
Seeing this, Chunxi was secretly happy in her heart.
"Empress Dowager Xie." Chun Xi knelt down and saluted, and the servants had already spread the huge white silk in the middle of the hall, and various colors of paint were also placed next to it.
The music began, and the flowers danced on the white cloth. The soft dance, the light dance, like the floating clouds in the air, and like a dragonfly dotting the water, as if a fairy stepping on the water waves.
From time to time, he wrapped the white silk in his hand around the pen in the paint, and then turned around and sketched on the white cloth. The steps on the feet never stopped, and the delicate body swayed with it. I don't see anything wrong with it. She is like a fairy in a painting, dancing as if she were in a painting.
The multicolored pigments resemble the colored threads in the hands of embroidered women, embroidering various patterns on white satin; It is also like the color ink stained by the painter, drawing the mighty river on rice paper.
Xuan Ye's hands kept beating on the drum, but his eyes never left his body at all.
At this moment, everyone was moved and couldn't take their eyes off. I just want to look at such a picture, this beautiful fairy gently stepping in the water waves.
After the song, Chunxi also stopped. He bent down slightly and saluted: "The concubine is ugly." ”
Xuan Ye stretched out his hand to help her up, looked down at her bare feet and only wore a pair of white socks, and instructed Liang Jiugong: "Quickly get the shoes." ”
Liang Jiugong presented the shoes, Xuan Ye took them, squatted down and put them on for Chunxi. Then he turned around and returned to the throne. She blushed and stepped back into her seat.
"Come on, bring the paintings of the nobles." The Empress Dowager commanded.
The four eunuchs spread the white silk and carried it before the people.
"Good, good, good. Not everyone can do this dance and painting. The mourning family thought that the noble person was already beyond the reach of a capable person, but when I saw it today, I knew what it meant to be natural. When the Empress Dowager saw the painting, she couldn't help but nod her head straight.
Everyone was stunned when they saw it. This short dance allowed her to draw the scene when she danced just now. Not just the stage, but also her figure. Even the emperor who played the drums on the side, Prince Yu who played the flute, and Mu Hui who played the pipa were all vividly painted.
How can this painting be comparable to mortals, and the dance just now is even more admirable to everyone.
"Grandma Huang. It seems that the grandson is right to accompany the nobles. Fuquan couldn't help but praise this painting when he saw it. It is already amazing to be able to paint this painting in such a short time, and it is even more convincing to be able to dance the Ling Bo dance as really Xie Aman is alive: "It is wonderful that the emperor can get this beauty, wonderful." ”
Xuan Ye smiled silently and said, "I've only seen the painting of Chunxi, and I don't think she can complete this dance painting under such circumstances." I was really surprised to be able to draw so beautifully. ”
"Someone. Reward. Xuan Ye commanded again.
"Since the emperor has rewarded it, the mourning family can't appreciate this talent in vain. Su Mo'er, bring the mourning family's sunrise five winds hanging bead hairpin. Look at the line of the nobleman, just this hairpin. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager rewards." She smiled all over her face.
The Empress Dowager took out a pearl hairpin from the carved wooden box inlaid with rubies and beckoned to Chunxi, who immediately stepped forward and knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager put the Chaoyang Five Winds Hanging Bead Hairpin in her hand on her head, and whispered in her ear: "The mourning family has rewarded others with something that they can't get, do you want to return the gift?" ”
Chun Xi was secretly happy, and replied: "The concubine will give the painting of today to the ancestor, okay?" ”
"Ancestor? Haha, haha. The mourners like to be called. Aren't these ordinary people all calling grandma their ancestors? Since this is the case, from now on, when I see the mourning family, they are all called ancestors. The Empress Dowager laughed loudly. This girl rarely comes to Cining Palace on weekdays, and she doesn't attract attention. If it weren't for Concubine Tong mentioning it today, I'm afraid she would have spent a quiet night. But I didn't want to, I had a problem, but I solved it very beautifully.
Xuan Ye heard it really well on the side, and hurriedly shouted: "Yes, old ancestor." ”
When everyone heard this, they also shouted: "Old ancestor." "In this palace, only the Empress Dowager is happy, which is the most important thing. Everyone couldn't help but admire the intelligence of this noble person, and every word could make her so happy. It seems that something is going to happen in this palace again.
The laughter in the audience infected the entire Forbidden City.
Coming out of the Qianqing Palace, Chunxi was already slightly drunk, and she was supported by Mu Hui and Shu Sleeve to stabilize her body along the way.
As soon as he entered the Yikun Gate, Chunxi stood in the courtyard and didn't leave. looked at the sky stupidly, but only saw a crescent moon.
"Little master, let's go to bed early. I have seen the moon too, and I am happy today. I have received so many rewards, and the little master is tired today, this New Year's Eve is coming, and the slaves and maids are coming. Shu Sleeve persuaded on the side.
"I'm happy today, you guys are happy with me." Chun Xi ignored Shu Shu sleeves and pulled Mu Hui to jump up.
Shu Sleeve could only shake his head and stand aside and wait.
"Auntie." Lan Xin, who heard the sound, also came out.
"How did you get so many rewards?" Looking at the things that had been placed on the ground a long time ago, Lan Xin was surprised.
Shu Sleeve told Lan Xin about tonight's events, and Lan Xin's face was full of joy: "Then why didn't the emperor come?" ”
"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the emperor naturally will not come to the harem. What's more, the little lord is in the limelight at the banquet, if the emperor comes, I am afraid that it will attract envy. Shu Sleeve explained.
"In other words, it's better if the emperor doesn't come?" Lan Xin nodded as if she didn't understand.
"Of course." Shu Sleeve nodded.
"Is the little lord happy or uncomfortable?" Lan Xin said worriedly.
Looking at this woman dancing in the night sky, Lan Xin suddenly felt that this harem had no choice. Although she still doesn't understand the little lord's feelings for the emperor, she feels deeply distressed when she looks at such a.
Although she was drunk, she had already woken up most of the wine after dancing in the cold wind. She didn't let go of her sleeves and went back to the house to sleep well. Instead, he stayed and kept the New Year with all the palace people in Yikun Palace.
The time has just passed, and the year is coming to an end. In Yikun Palace, I was listening to Xiaoqinzi tell the story of her hometown, and suddenly I heard that the door that had already been locked was knocked on. Xiao Yuanzi went out and opened the door, only to see Wei Yangling hurriedly come in and ask for peace, saying that it was the emperor's invitation.
Chunxi smiled happily, and kept saying in his heart: It turns out that he is still thinking about me.
Chun Xi changed into new clothes and followed Wei Yangling, without bringing anyone.
Xuan Ye was waiting on the city tower early, and when he saw Chun Xi coming, he was thinly dressed, and he hurriedly took off the big hat on his body and put it on for her.
Xuan Ye gently hugged her in his arms, and when he was enjoying this warm embrace, countless fireworks bloomed in the sky.
"This is the highest place in the palace, and it's much more fun to set off fireworks here than to go down there." Xuan Ye whispered in her ear: "This year has just begun, and I hope that you will accompany me throughout the year and share weal and woe." ”
"Third brother." Chunxi snuggled in his arms, full of warmth.
"Every year after that, we'll come here to watch the fireworks, okay?" Xuan Ye kissed her lightly on the lips, then immediately let go and asked her softly.
Chunxi nodded, why would she not agree? She couldn't ask for it!
What could be happier than this moment? It is not only a great honor to be able to share the joys and sorrows with the Son of Heaven, but also the greatest misfortune. But she, willingly. Being able to be with her at this time of year is already the most beautiful love story and the most perfect promise.
Accompanying and waiting for each year year after year, all she expects is that simple. The person she loves loves herself, and the person she loves allows her to guard herself.
At dawn, Xuan Ye and Chun Xi separated and returned to the Qianqing Palace.
On the way back to Yikun Palace, Chunxi met Prince Chun Longxi, who had just entered the palace.
"Say hello to the prince." Chun Xi saluted, thinking that there would be no intersection, and was about to leave, but heard him say: "The demeanor of the noble man yesterday made this king admire. ”
"Thank you for your praise." He smiled slightly to express his gratitude. Thinking that today is the first day of the new year, and I didn't return last night, I should go back early to prepare, and I will inevitably go to Cining Palace later, so I quit Longxi and left in a hurry.
Long Xi watched this shadow disappear around the corner of the palace road, thoughtful. If she had met earlier, wouldn't she have entered the palace? It is said that love at first sight is the best way to express his heart, he didn't believe it before, but now, he has to believe it. He thought that the person he loved in this life must be the most ordinary woman in the world. He doesn't like those vulgar fans, and he doesn't love those ladies deeply. He obviously prefers girls from ordinary families, but the moment he sees her, he turns into a shadow. It's a pity that providence makes people. She was a woman he would never be able to touch, and he couldn't even say a few words.
