Nativity

Chapter 472: Music Master Ruoli (Concubine Li)

The dance steps are graceful and the posture is elegant, and it is extremely elegant!

  The acrobatics are hilarious and absolutely amazing!

The singing is so beautiful and melodious, it really makes people intoxicated!

The magic is amazing, reaching a superb level!

Seeing this, all the immortals and gods applauded and praised.

……

The Heavenly Emperor was a little puzzled. The Queen Mother of the West said that she had a great gift for him, but the birthday party was about to end, so he didn't want to receive the Queen Mother of the West's gift.

The emperor was wondering whether he should wait a while or announce now that the Shoudan ceremony was successfully concluded?

The Queen of Heaven saw what the Lord of Heaven was thinking and asked her sister jokingly, "Didn't you say that you had a great gift to offer? Where is the great gift?"

  What kind of gift?

The Queen Mother's words made all the fairies look at the Queen Mother of the West in confusion.

The Queen Mother of the West smiled and said, "A great gift has arrived!"

A graceful woman, holding a guqin in her arms, with her face half covered, walked towards the fairies with golden lotus steps.

Everyone knows that the Queen Mother of the West's dancing and playing of the piano are unmatched. Knowing the woman's identity, everyone is looking forward to her performance. They want to know whether the Queen Mother of the West's playing of the piano is better or her apprentice's.

It is said that the Queen Mother of the West has a powerful magic instrument called the "Fuxi Qin", which can be said to be a weapon to suppress demons.

  The fairies looked at the guqin in the woman's arms. Could it be that this guqin was the "Fuxi Qin" of the Queen Mother of the West?

As the name suggests, "Fuxi Qin" was made by Fuxi.

Fuxi used dragon tendons for the strings and phoenix bones for the body of the zither. The sound of the zither is melodious, ethereal, and penetrates the soul.

The power of the Fuxi Qin lies in controlling one's inner demons, cleansing the soul, and purifying the mind.

The melodious and ethereal sound of the piano penetrates everywhere, eliminating the inner greed and demonic obstacles, cleansing and purifying the soul, thus making the heart feel incomparably peaceful and tranquil.

The woman came to the center of the banquet hall, put down the guqin first, and then bowed to the immortals.

"My daughter's name is Ruoli. She is a zither player in the West Sea. She was ordered by the Queen Mother of the West to play a piece of music for the Heavenly Emperor."

The woman gave a brief self-introduction.

Ruoli sat down facing the Emperor and Empress of Heaven, stroking the zither and plucking the strings. The melodious and ethereal sound of the zither slowly rang out in the banquet hall.

The moment Ruoli appeared, Tianjun's eyes fell on Ruoli's face; when Ruoli raised his head slightly and revealed a stunning look, Tianjun's heart trembled and he almost shouted out loud.

My beloved!

You are still alive!

The Queen knew that her sister's sudden return this time would not be a good thing. The moment she saw Ruoli appear, she had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, when Ruoli slightly raised her head and revealed her peerless beauty, the Queen Mother was frightened and her heart was in her throat.

  Concubine Li!

No, isn’t Concubine Li already dead?

It is impossible for a mortal to come to the Ninth Heaven, so she is definitely not Concubine Li.

The queen pretended to be calm and looked at her sister, trying to find the answer from her sister's face.

When Queen Mother of the West received the gaze from her sister, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Now, the Queen finally understood what her sister meant by all the great gifts.

The Queen Mother of the West Sea attended the birthday celebration of the Emperor of Heaven with a purpose in mind.

As for the purpose, only Emperor Donghua knows.

The Emperor looked at Ruoli without moving his eyes away, and Emperor Donghua knew that the fish was about to take the bait.

The music style is divided into three sections.

The first part is cheerful and beautiful, as if describing a beautiful scene of a pair of lovers chasing and playing freely under the blue sky.

The style of the second section suddenly changes, with the tune becoming higher and faster; the high and undulating melody seems as if the sky is falling and the earth is splitting apart.

The third part will be added with an ethereal, pure and slightly sad female voice, making the following music full of sadness, as if the heroine is crying out about the injustice and unwillingness of fate, but the result is so helpless.

Tianjun listened to the melodious and ethereal sound of the piano, and scenes from the past appeared before his eyes... Hey, why did it stop?

All the immortals were listening attentively. The sound of the piano suddenly stopped. They thought something had happened and looked at the musician Ruoli at the same time.

Everyone who listened to the music felt relaxed and happy.

The queen felt uncomfortable all over, as if every note turned into a stick, hitting her inner demons.

Fortunately, the piano music stopped suddenly, otherwise, the queen would have been furious!

"This piece of music consists of three sections, and the first and second sections have been played. Today is the birthday of the Emperor of Heaven, and the style of the last part is too sad, so Ruoli will not play the last part." The pianist Ruoli explained apologetically.

After listening to the explanation of the zither player, all the immortals felt an uncomfortable itch; it was like when you are listening to a story and it reaches the most crucial moment; the storyteller suddenly says, if you want to know what happens next, please listen to the next chapter.

The immortals turned their eyes to the Emperor of Heaven, wanting to hear his reply, "It's okay, just keep playing."

As soon as Zi Ruoli appeared, Tianjun's eyes never left her, and of course he wanted to continue listening.

The Queen of Heaven was sitting next to the Emperor of Heaven. How could she not see that her husband's heart and soul had been captivated by the sound of the piano?

The Queen Mother would naturally not give the Emperor of Heaven a chance to speak.

"You knew it was a sad song, so why did you play it at the Emperor's birthday party?"

The immortals could not wait for the reply from the Lord of Heaven, but waited for the question from the Queen of Heaven.

Faced with the Queen Mother's stern question, Ruoli didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"My Fuxi Qin is only suitable for playing sad songs. Sister, you know this, right?"

The Queen Mother of the West was intimidating without even getting angry, and she suppressed the arrogance of the Queen of Heaven.

The Queen smiled and explained, "Sister, I know this. But don't you think it's unlucky to play sad music at a birthday party?"

"It's ridiculous that my younger sister said that my Fuxi Qin is unlucky! The Fuxi Qin is not only a magical instrument, but also a spiritual object. It uses dragon tendons as strings and phoenix bones as the body of the Qin. The sound of the Qin is melodious and ethereal, and every note in the song is calling your soul." As she spoke, a smile appeared on the face of Queen Mother Xi.

A seemingly ordinary guqin is actually a Fuxi guqin!

All the immortals wanted to go up and touch the strings of the zither.

"If my sister says so, then I really have nothing to say."

The Queen Mother announced with displeasure that the birthday banquet was over.

The Queen of Heaven suddenly became angry, especially in such a situation, leaving the Emperor of Heaven confused.

The Queen Mother announced the end of the birthday banquet and left without waiting for the Emperor of Heaven.

"The Queen Mother has been under a lot of pressure recently, so she is not in a good mood. I am sorry to make you all laugh." The Lord of Heaven pleaded for the Queen Mother awkwardly.

The Queen Mother left on her own, and the Emperor of Heaven could only announce the end of the birthday banquet and then left as well.

The Queen Mother of the West looked at her sister, the Queen of Heaven, and her proud background, and felt completely disappointed!

None of the immortals had expected that the Heavenly Emperor's birthday celebration would end in such an unhappy way.

"Will the Queen Mother of the West return to the West Sea soon? If so, can we ask the zither player Ruoli to finish playing the song before she leaves?"

Fushou Xingjun was still not satisfied, and was afraid that Xi Wangmu would soon return to Xihai. If Xi Wangmu left, he would not be able to hear the last part of the song. Fushou Xingjun begged Xi Wangmu to let Ruoli finish the song before leaving.

"Yeah! It's such a beautiful song, it's a pity not to be able to listen to it to the end!"

"We can't play here, we can go somewhere else."

The God of Fortune and Longevity took the lead, and all the immortals followed suit to seek the truth.

The Queen Mother of the West looked a little embarrassed.

"It just so happens that I have something to discuss with the Queen Mother of the West. Why don't you stay at my Taichen Palace for a few days, and Ruoli can play at my Taichen Palace, so that the immortals can listen to the whole song."

"OK then!"

Since Lord Donghua had begged, there was no reason for Queen Mother Xi not to agree.

What a great idea!
