Chapter 108: Singing in the middle of the night
Beichen Xu smiled lightly, his moon-like eyes seemed to condense thousands of brilliance, shining, "Miss Xue is humble, you sang a light song on the birthday of the former concubine, tactful and vivid, pointing to the strings like a warbler in the forest, Rao is the passage of time, still in the ears." ”
Xue Hainiang chuckled, walked to the pear tree slightly, stroked the intertwined branches as if looking for the annual rings engraved with the years, her red lips opened lightly, and her voice seemed to be slightly melancholy, "Have you ever heard of the origin of this song?"
Beichen Xu was a little stunned, staring at her slender but not like the fragile figure of an ordinary woman, and said with a smile: "I am not from the Southern Dynasties......"
Although Sauvignon Blanc is not eternal, he has also heard of it when he is familiar with poetry and classics, but he only remembers the annotations of ancient books, Sauvignon Blanc is made up by the court concubines, and the rest is unknown.
Xue Hainiang smiled slightly sideways, her crystal eyes were like the twinkling stars in the sky, quite aura," It is rumored that Sauvignon Blanc is the court concubine Yin fell out of favor and was beaten into the cold palace after the unbearable misery, sad and poignant to send love silk to poetry and strings, singing night and night, hoping that the song can reach the emperor's ears when the night is lonely, but the fact is the opposite, the queen of the court was jealous of Concubine Yin, and when she heard it, she was carrying the emperor and the queen mother to take people to execute Concubine Yin in private in the cold palace. ”
Beichen Xu seemed to be smiling, and lightly entered the sideburns and sword eyebrows, "Miss Xue came to venture here tonight, shouldn't she have come to tell me about the miserable situation of this Concubine Yin." ”
Xue Hainiang's smile was like a flower, and her teeth were faintly visible, "Before the slave maid came here, I thought that it would not be difficult to talk to the prince of Beichen, so it seems that His Royal Highness the prince is a little more transparent than the slave maid expected." ”
Beichen Xu was no longer humble, his eyes full of wisdom were full of smiles, so he looked at Xue Hainiang directly, waiting for her next.
Xue Hainiang no longer beat around the bush, it was rare to smile lightly on her lips, and there was a faint hint of the current solemnity of the enemy between her eyebrows, "The slave is just confused, the prince is a man, how can he learn this Sauvignon Blanc tune for no reason, the prince should not use the words he heard on that birthday to fool the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid played this song that day, that is, they knew this Sauvignon Blanc, the tune turned back and forth, it was extremely difficult to control, Rao is the prince is talented in music, and it is impossible to play it so vividly just by listening to it once." ”
Although Xue Hainiang didn't make it clear, she was convinced that Beichen Xu's intelligence must be clear.
Beichen Xu narrowed his eyes, and his fingertips, which were a little more beautiful than the woman's slender jade fingers, rubbed his chin, and only after a while did he hear him: "There is nothing to hide about this matter, and I don't know when I have lived in this proton pavilion every time I go up and down, I can hear the mournful sound of the pipa, and the sound of the woman chanting Sauvignon Blanc." He paused, and then said: "At first, I was uneasy, after all, there are countless grievances in the depths of the palace...... But day after day, the sound of the pipa never stopped, and gradually I realized that what the woman was singing was the Sauvignon Blanc you sang on the birthday of the concubine that day, and I had nothing to do, so I asked Lin Yan to fetch the zither to learn to play it a few times, and what you listened to tonight was the result that I had reviewed several times. ”
Xue Hainiang's eyes were deep when she heard this, and she could hear the woman singing Sauvignon Blanc every day......
And the time is the same as the time when Nan Jiuxi enters and exits the vicinity, could it be that Nan Jiuxi came because of this?
However, the deep palace is lonely, who is lying in the pipa warbler and crying swallows, and it is such a barren and secluded place.
With a sense of confusion, Xue Hainiang followed the winding path all the way back to the Chonghua Hall without danger, until-
"Hai Niang?" The silver bell-like voice revealed a little doubt, and Xue Hainiang, who was immersed in her own thoughts, came back to her senses.
"Miss Huanyue, why didn't she go back to the room to rest so late?" Xue Hainiang gathered her emotions slightly, and Qiong Ziyurong raised a light smile that was alienated but not lost her affinity.
Huanyue's lips rose, and a smile that was difficult to discern the meaning of the meaning added a touch of color to her gentle face, "I can't compare to Hai Niang's idleness, if I have time to rest, I will have rested early." ”
Xue Hainiang knew that Huanyue had always been resentful because Liang Bairou loved herself extraordinarily, and most of them accommodated her because she was young, and this is also the case today. Xue Hainiang chuckled, and there were already many concessions, "If there is something I can help with, Hainiang will not hesitate." ”
Huanyue smiled slyly, and stuffed the food box held by the slender lotus arm into Xue Hainiang's arms, "There is really something bothering you now, you can send the dim sum and sweet soup to the little master." ”
Xue Hainiang's face was shocked, and she hurriedly asked, "Why hasn't the little master gone to bed at this hour?"
Huanyue showed a look of disdain on her face, "As soon as I heard your words, I knew that you must have not served in the Chonghua Palace all night, and the emperor stayed in the small main room after dinner time......"
Huanyue Xu was really as sleepy as she said, yawned and didn't say anything to Xue Hainiang anymore, and went straight to the next room.
Xue Hainiang's heart was worried, the creamy jade arm holding the food box but couldn't move the pace, after a while, she walked slowly to the familiar boudoir, the carved rosewood windows were tightly covered, the candle flame was swaying, and a slender shadow could be seen dancing lightly behind the screen, and the sound of silk bamboo and laughter was endless.
Xue Hainiang hesitated for a long time, but she took a detour and went to the kitchen.
What greeted me was Cai Xi's sleeve skirt, green silk rolled up, and he was directing the cook to make dim sum and soup.
"Why is Miss Xue here at this hour?" Cai Xi saw the slender figure at the threshold, and the person who was curled and curled, hurriedly smiled and stepped forward.
Xue Hainiang raised her eyes and glanced at it, before she smiled: "I saw that Caixi was busy working all night and came here to change shifts with you." ”
Cai Xi wanted to speak, but Xue Hainiang's fragrant wood food box in her arm asked her to twist her eyebrows, "This, didn't I ask Huanyue to send the snacks and sweet soup in the small main room?
"I saw that Huanyue looked tired and asked her to rest early, just now I saw that the palace lights in the small kitchen were not extinguished, so I took a look here, and I happened to see that you were still busy, if not, I have nothing to do today, and I have slept enough earlier, you send this food box to the little master for me, and the kitchen will be handed over to me. Xue Hainiang explained her meaning in a nutshell.
Cai Xi is older than Zhi Huanyue, and his mind is more cautious than that of Huanyue, thinking for a long time, his face suddenly showed a look of helplessness and worry, took the fragrant wood food box in Xue Hainiang's hand, and sighed lightly, drowning in the noise and almost not listening.
"She has always been arrogant and domineering, and she has always been dissatisfied with the little master's preference for you, so you should not be too accommodating to her. ”
