Confused the world

The provocative strings, the elegant frame, everything looks so beautiful.

The slender and slender fingers lightly pick each string.

The morning light that occasionally sneaks in to join in the fun is also greedy for the beautiful notes at the moment, and they refuse to leave one after another.

The sound of the piano is melodious, each melody is like a naughty child, sometimes jumping for joy, sometimes crying, the transition of each melody is so just right.

Xia Xiang was immersed in the melodious sound of the piano, not caring at all whether someone stepped into Xueyu Palace.The eyes are obsessed, like being intoxicated.

Mu Qingcheng concentrates on playing the piano. At this moment, every string of the piano is under her hands, just like the closest lovers. The tacit understanding between each other makes the listener feel that the master of the piano has already merged with this charming melody. for one.

I don't know how long it took, but I played a few pieces of music.The two people who were completely immersed in their own world had already forgotten where they were.

"Greetings to Empress Li, when will empress come to Xueyu Palace, why don't you let me know?"

When Chun Yu came back, she saw Li Yan standing at the entrance of the main hall of Xueyu Palace, looking at the lady playing the piano there.

Xia Xiang was also mesmerized, completely unaware that someone was coming.Not to mention Miss, she is the weakest vigilant when it comes to playing the piano.

Chun Yu saluted and spoke a little loudly, deliberately reminding the two drunk people.

Hearing Chun Yu's voice, Xia Xiang turned around and saw Li Yan, the two court ladies, and Chun Yu.She didn't know why Concubine Li came to Xueyu Palace, it stands to reason that people from Xueyu Palace and Diewu Palace had never had any intersection.Miss's temper, let alone take the initiative to show favor to others.

"I heard that Concubine Xian is ill, so I came here to have a look. I specially prepared some supplements, and hope that Concubine Xian will recover soon."

Li Yan smiled slightly, her voice was mellow and sweet, just like the sound of the gurgling stream in the deep mountains and streams, gently passing through the atrium of the heart, comfortable and joyful.

The skin like snow jade, when you walk in, it looks like fairy dew, fresh and fresh.

The gentle eyes seem to be filled with a smile, and the eyebrows are as thin as willow leaves.Like a silver hook, it is attractive.

Chun Yu, who had seen countless beauties, was the first time to see such a gentle woman.The more you look at her, the more you want to care for her, for fear that even a sneeze will scare her.

Chun Yu stepped forward to accept the gift, saluted and thanked her.

"Thank you, Concubine Li, for remembering my empress. When my empress recovers from her illness, I will visit Diewu Palace."

Looking sideways at the two of them again, the lady is still holding on to the strings, as if the voices here have not affected her.Xia Xiang stood aside and didn't speak.

Chun Yu winked and asked Xia Xiang to remind Miss.In a blink of an eye, he smiled and said to Li Yan.

"My concubine plays the piano, that's it. Concubine Li, don't blame my concubine for being rude. Concubine Li, don't just stand there, go sit in the main hall and wait for my concubine for a while, while the servants go to prepare some refreshments."

Chun Yu bowed to Li Yan, walked to the side of a chair with small steps, and motioned for her to sit down.

"Go and do your work, I'll just sit here for a while."

Li Yan walked over and sat down without taking a step away from Mu Qingcheng's figure.

A white dress, a simple bundle of hair, and loose hair on the forehead.A little messy, but it looks so natural.

The white and slender fingers are calm and comfortable on the strings.Petite and thin body, looks like a child.

Obviously the same age as me, that person looks even more slender, and his height only reaches his chin. If he walks with him, will the people behind him say that he is bringing his daughter?

The more I look at that back, the more distressed I feel. She is the woman who was rumored in the imperial capital to not live to be twenty.

When I was very young, people around me often said that the third lady of the Mu family was ill again, and all the imperial doctors went to the shogunate again.At that time, it was the topic that father and servants talked and discussed the longest.

I have been curious about this person since I was a child, and when I was five or six years old, I heard from my father that she went to Emei.In order to save her life, the Mu family sent her to learn martial arts.There has been no news of her since.

Occasionally, when I went to the temple to burn incense, I met some pilgrims talking about her. It was nothing more than rumors that she would not live to be twenty.

I also know a little about the Mu family, and my father has a lot of opinions on the Mu family.I never asked about the affairs of the court, I was just curious every time, and wanted to know the news about her from my father.

Sometimes when I went to the street, I would listen to some storytellers talk about the Mu family. Prime Minister Mu has three children.The second daughter, Mu Xiangcheng, is also a gentle and virtuous talented woman. Everyone in the imperial capital regards herself as the number one talented woman. If she is compared with her, I am afraid that she may not really be like that.

As for the third lady, not many people have said how beautiful and talented she is, but more about whether she has survived this year.People's interest in her is only whether she is about to leave the world, and "sick child" is the only one who is known and discussed about her.

I remember one time when I went to a temple fair, I ran into the second lady of the Mu family.At that time, the two were very close to each other, watching palace lanterns and guessing lantern riddles.Inadvertently heard the servants on the side mention her.

"Second miss, if the third miss is here, she will be happy. She likes to be lively, but Miss Murong said that the miss is sick again, so I don't know if she is better now."

"Cheng'er is taken care of by Miss Murong, so we don't have to worry. She will take good care of Cheng'er. Meeting her in this life may be a destined marriage. It's just that His Majesty always hints that Dad will let Cheng'er enter the palace. There will be some trouble in the future."

Mu Xiangcheng chose a palace lantern and sighed aside.

"That's right, why did His Majesty fall in love with the third lady? It stands to reason that the second lady should be the most suitable for entering the palace. The third lady is weak, so the palace is not suitable for her. I don't know what your majesty's plan is?"

The maid turned her head slightly and asked with some doubts.

"I don't want to enter the palace, and I don't even want Cheng'er to enter the palace. If Cheng'er enters the palace, what will happen to the Mu family?"

While talking, Mu Xiangcheng took the palace lantern and left.

"I know the reason why Miss doesn't want to enter the palace, isn't it because she likes Mr. Yifan."

"Looking for a fight..."

The two left talking and laughing, and that was the last time I got news about her.

Entering the palace to choose a concubine, and hearing that there is her, he also came to participate.

I remember the first time I saw her in the main hall, although her appearance was not outstanding, that kind of calming atmosphere was not something ordinary people could have.She can make all kinds of jokes during the competition by herself?

She vividly interpreted a sick and stupid young lady from the prime minister's house.Sometimes, no matter how one disguises oneself, the aura on one's body cannot be concealed.

Those sudden changes in the palace later made her even more cute.

Xia Xiang watched the young lady playing happily, so don't disturb her, but Chun Yu winked at her. The concubine Li has been waiting for so long, it would be really rude not to go.

"Miss, Concubine Li has come to see you."

Xia Xiang lowered her head and whispered in Mu Qingcheng's ear, reminding her that a guest had arrived.

When Mu Qingcheng heard Xia Xiang's words, she stopped playing the piano, raised her face and looked at her suspiciously.You turned your head to look at the main hall, tightened your body, and looked at each other.

Why did this woman come back to Xueyu Palace?Considering that the two have no intersection, it should be said that the words that the self-selected concubine said at the beginning are pitifully few, let alone have any feelings.

Mu Qingcheng immediately left the piano seat with a smile on her face, and walked over.Light and small steps, gentle and decent manners.The smile on her face still showed that she was in a good mood, and she seemed to have recovered from her illness.

"Why did Empress Li come to my place in time?"

Mu Qingcheng sat down on the chair opposite to Li Yan's, with puzzled eyes, but asked politely.

Xia Xiang brings tea, and Chun Yu brings pastries.Both of them retreated to one side, looking at the guests opposite.

"I heard from the palace people that Concubine Xian is ill, so she brought some supplements and specially came here to have a look. I heard the sound of the zither in the garden, and I know that your illness is recovering very well."

Li Yan stroked the teacup, pursed her lips and took a sip of tea, with a slight smile on her lips.The light of the morning sun passed through the door of the main hall, making her face brighter and more transparent.

"Concubine Li is bothering you. My broken body will get sick from time to time. I'm used to it. I'm really sorry for causing Concubine Li to worry about you this time."

Mu Qingcheng was doing well, nodding and expressing her apologies.But there was another thought in my heart.

I am not familiar with Concubine Li, why would she do this.If it's because of entering the palace together, it seems that her temperament is not the kind of woman who likes to get close.Her eyebrows revealed the introvertedness and reservedness of a lady from the official family, and she would not be the one who took the initiative to engage in relationships with others.

If it is possible to be jealous, His Majesty used to like to go to Diewu Palace, but these days he has been staying in Xueyu Palace, so it is not strange to be criticized.

Outsiders said that His Majesty doted on him, but he knew how painful it was to be with her.

If this woman can take His Majesty away, I will be in a lot of trouble.

Hearing Mu Qingcheng say this about herself, Li Yandai frowned, and then returned to her original appearance.

"Concubine Xian, you must not have negative thoughts because of your weak body. Life is as long as you live yourself. Don't worry about those trivial matters."

Li Yan said some comforting words, please shake the teacup on the paulownia table slightly and make a sound.

"Thank you, Concubine Li. Human life is up to God. I have already seen through it, so I won't be too fussy. Concubine Li came to see me today, and I am extremely grateful."

Li Yan's words startled Mu Qingcheng, cooperating with this person was to comfort herself, but why did she do this?

At first I thought it was a matter of jealousy, but when we talked about it, that person never showed a mild emotion. I don't know if she covered it up too well, or she was thinking too much.

"Concubine Xian doesn't need to thank you, I just think it's fate that the two of us entered the palace together to serve His Majesty. Concubine Xian is ill, so I came to see it because of the fate in my heart. Concubine Xian, don't say thank you." Kind of words."

Mu Qingcheng smiled in relief, she didn't know if this person came to see her specially, or had other purposes.As long as she doesn't overdo it, she doesn't care about it.

Just as she was speaking, she saw Qiuyue rushing towards the hall angrily.

"Miss, miss, I'm so mad. Do you know what the palace people said about the lady? They said that the lady hooked up with your majesty, and with her temperament, she would not take your majesty seriously, so she didn't have to hook up. Those people really deserve to be beaten. If Dongxue hadn't stopped them, I would have beaten them so that they wouldn't dare to talk nonsense again."

While talking and running, he rushed to Mu Qingcheng angrily.He kept nagging, obviously he didn't notice that there were three other people in the hall.
