Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 66

Zheng Jingyan was also by the railing, and he saw Xia Yiqing almost immediately.

At this time, there are more than a dozen small boats cruising on the clear lake. An extraordinarily exquisite and gorgeous painting boat is rowed to the center of the lake by two boatmen. Against the backdrop, a beautiful woman in a begonia red dress knelt and sat on the bow of the boat. The breeze blew up her skirt, and the pink silk wrapped around her arms was fluttering. The woman didn't realize it, slightly Qing lowered his head, his hands fluttered lightly, and caressed the lyre in front of him like a selfless person, and this picture-like beautiful scene, accompanied by the beautiful and intoxicating melody, was reserved for the people on the shore and on the boat in the lake. .

Before the end of the song on the boat, a loud and clear flute sounded suddenly, the same melody, just as beautiful, lingering and lingering with the sound of the piano, one flute and one piano, already matched very beautifully, but there was another melodious piano sound Coming from another direction, it is in harmony with the original piano sound, high and low, interspersed with flute sounds. This kind of emotion, everyone was fascinated by listening to it, and they seemed to forget where they were. When the music ended, the surroundings became quiet, and everyone looked at each other, they suddenly realized it, as if they had just returned to the world from heaven.

The woman in red on the painting boat, the princess in purple robes in the water pavilion, and the noble man holding a jade flute on the viewing platform couldn't help smiling happily.

People who are proficient in melody can memorize the score after listening to it once, but to perfectly respond to each other, it depends on whether there is such a tacit understanding between them!

Zheng Jingyan was immersed in the wonderful music, and admired Yiqing sincerely in his heart.

Based on his understanding of Yiqing, he knows that the music may not be really composed by Yiqing, and of course it cannot be attributed to Princess Qin. Come up with this song full of Jiangnan charm!

However, it is extremely rare for them to cooperate so exquisitely and properly for the first time, and that jade flute... Zheng Jingyan smiled wryly to himself. According to the arrangement of Princess Qin, the jade flute was originally intended to be delivered to him Bar?The intention is obvious, to make a good story about husband and wife's love, women singing and husband following each other. Unexpectedly, when the maid brought the jade flute over, Yuan Cong saw it.

Yuan Cong is quite accomplished in the art of string music, and the three-person ying and the middle flute sound are particularly vivid, listening to the moving music that is perfectly coordinated, Zheng Jingyan does not know why, but feels a faint sourness in his heart .

Qin Xiao reconciles, he has only had a relationship with Wang Yaozhen, if the jade flute falls into his hands, he can also reconcile very well with Yi Qing, but this opportunity was snatched by Yuan Cong.

The emperor took the lead in clapping his hands, and said with a smile: "This song should only exist in the sky, how many times can you hear it in the world! Taihu Lake is beautiful, it is really wonderful, and it is so beautiful! Mrs. Rong Pinghou is kind and talented, and Princess Qin is wise and knowledgeable. Excellent talent, come here, I will give you a big reward! Shou Wang's jade flute complements each other, it is superb, and adds to the beauty of the music, I like it, and I will appreciate it!"

Qin Wangfei Xu Ningzhen had returned to the viewing platform from the water pavilion on the left, bowed down to the emperor Yingying with a smile, and said, "Father, this song was originally intended to be composed as a song and dance, but I couldn't practice it well in a hurry."

After hearing this, the emperor hurriedly asked: "But there is a shortage of Le Ji who can sing and dance? Then go to the palace to pick it! Then pass this piece to the musicians in the palace. After listening to your piece, I feel refreshed. Feel free! I will listen to it every day from now on, if it is composed into a song and dance, it will be even more wonderful! This matter will be handled by Princess Qin, and within three days, I will watch the song and dance!"

"My daughter-in-law complies!"

Xu Ning bowed gracefully and calmly, with a cheerful and sweet smile. On the other side, the queen's face sank completely, turning into a bitter face. Princess Wei even lowered her head and dared not make a sound. The emperor seemed to have completely forgotten her " "Ode to Taihu Lake", Princess Qin and Mrs. Rong Pinghou both won awards, but they didn't mention her, and didn't even look at her!

Thinking of the elegant and gorgeous song by myself and my husband, it took more than a month to compose. Didn't the emperor always like such a slow and calm tune?But why did he change his taste as soon as this light and bright song "The Beauty of Taihu Lake" appeared?
On the stone steps by the lake, as soon as Yiqing's boat docked, Zheng Jingyan went up to meet her, held her hand with one hand, and supported her waist with the other, and the two walked off the boat carefully.

Yiqing was very surprised by his behavior: this man can talk casually in the room, but he won't sit next to her or walk on the same side with her. When taking something from her hand, you have to look carefully before extending your hand, for fear of Touching her limbs, riding in a carriage together, if she bumped into him, she would be stared at or reprimanded by him... But before the public, he actually took the initiative to help him?Isn't it evil?

Facing Yiqing's clear and clear eyes full of doubts, Zheng Jingyan could only move his eyes away, and said softly: "The song you composed is very good, the emperor wants to see you!"

It turned out that he came here for vaccinations, and was afraid that his words and deeds would be inappropriate and embarrass Rong Pinghou!
"Princess Qin rushed the ducks to the shelves and insisted that I sit on this boat and play the piano. It really made her wish come true and she succeeded in keeping the emperor!"

While talking, Yiqing glanced at the dense crowd on the viewing platform, her smile disappeared, and her face turned slightly pale: "Meet the emperor and empress? What should I do? I, I'm a little scared!"

You know you're scared this time, right?
Her softness and meekness are all pretended on weekdays!
Zheng Jingyan looked down at Yiqing's snow-white and soft hand gently turning in his palm, and then tightly grasped his fingers, he couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and there was a hint of a smile With pretty cheeks:

"Isn't this here to pick you up? Don't be afraid, I'm here, just follow me!"

Leading Yiqing forward, Zheng Jingyan smiled and parted his lips, and said in a voice that Yiqing could only hear: "It is enough to be well-mannered when you meet the emperor. The empress may make things difficult for you. If you can't answer Try to speak as slowly as possible, and let me answer for you! Remember when we first met in the market? The man who walked with me was the emperor's younger brother, the longevity king Yuan Cong! He has already been married, has numerous concubines, side concubines, concubines and beautiful concubines, and has two daughters, you just need to be polite to him, don't worry about it!"

Yiqing glanced at him and thought: This topic has jumped too far, right?From the queen's unkindness to the first meeting, to the family profile of the longevity king Yuan Cong, what does this mean?

It was too late for Zheng Jingyan to explain, the couple walked into the viewing platform hand in hand, and under the envious eyes of everyone, they went up to the emperor and the queen and knelt down in front of the emperor and the empress, and then reluctantly let go of the two hands that were holding each other. In the eyes, they unanimously agreed: This is an enviable and affectionate couple!

Even the emperor thought so, looked at the two with a smile, and nodded frequently to show his approval.

Only Yuan Cong sneered secretly, never believing what he saw.

In Yiqing's eyes, the extremely noble emperor is just a shriveled little old man who looks a little kind, and the empress is a beautiful middle-aged woman who looks at Yiqing exactly as Zheng Jingyan said, very unkind, with a gentle smile on her face , the words are gentle, but the words that are spoken are piercing.

"Where did Mrs. Rong Pinghou's ancestors go? What did she do?"

"I heard that Mrs. Rong Ping Hou married Rong Ping Hou's mansion not long after she came from other provinces. It's quite unexpected! I wonder how old your father is?"

Asking such a question in front of so many people with high social status made it clear that Yiqing wanted to reveal her family fortune by herself.

Apparently, someone had already reported Yiqing's insignificant life experience to the queen.

Yiqing's subconscious admiration for the title of queen was quickly wiped out!
She didn't ask Zheng Jingyan to answer for her, and she answered the question as tactfully as possible: "I would like to inform the Empress that my ancestors lived in Huzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, and they farmed and studied for generations. My grandfather was a scholar who was well-read in poetry and books. My father was poor for ten years. Cheng Huangen got a Jinshi in the imperial examination, and now she is a county magistrate of the seventh grade. When a concubine marries into the Rongping Marquis, it is the elders who decide... Indeed, it is a high ranking!"

Some plain and plain words made everyone listen comfortably. The emperor sitting on top nodded frequently. Hearing her last sentence, her tone was depressed, which meant a little helplessness and grievance, which made the emperor laugh out loud, and said to Yiqing:

"Your grandfather is Pang Shilang of the Ministry of Rites? The Pang family is a famous family, and the family of Shili has produced two bachelors alone. Their descendants are no less than others! The granddaughter of the family, this is a good match! Xia Shi, I see you are elegant and talented, Rongping Hou Qianqian is a gentleman, elegant and handsome, you two are a perfect match, you are a rare couple!"

The emperor Jinkou Yuyan, he said that Zheng and Xia are a good husband and wife, which is equivalent to giving them a red rope to give them a marriage and witness their marriage. Who dares to question the emperor's vision?
The people around the side had to make gestures just to flatter the emperor. They congratulated each other and spared no effort to warmly bless the newlyweds kneeling in front of the emperor and the queen.

Even the queen, after hearing the emperor's words, had to let go of her face and put on a smile.

Yiqing was a little puzzled: she still didn't know the real meaning of the emperor's words, but the emperor put aside the queen's front and supported herself!

what happened?Is it really good for the emperor to do this?
Zheng Jingyan turned his face to look at Xia Yiqing who was in a daze, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated inexplicably, and when he heard someone shouting at him, "Ah Yan, thank you quickly", he hurriedly took Yiqing's hand, respectfully kowtowed to the emperor and queen to thank him .

When Zheng Jingyan took Yiqing to meet the longevity king Yuan Cong, Yuan Cong was standing under a willow tree with his hands behind his back, watching the fish in the lake spit bubbles.

Hearing the two approaching, Yuan Cong turned around, waved his hand to stop them from saluting, looked at Yiqing and said, "Miss Xia, are you here all right?"

Yiqing respectfully blessed Fushen and said: "Thank you, my lord, for your care! My lord is blessed and safe! Xiangri's servants and concubines in the market have no eyes, and they don't know the king of longevity. I hope the lord will forgive me!"

Yuan Cong looked at Yiqing and nodded, then glanced at Zheng Jingyan with a half-smile. There are some things that need not be explained too clearly in front of a woman.

The maid led Yiqing back and went back to the lively banquet not far away. The two men were standing by the lake, gossiping as usual. What is in his heart, only he knows.

That's not what Zheng Jingyan wants to care about, all he needs to do is clarify Yi Qing's identity and spread the word, especially in front of Yuan Cong, that's enough!
