Xiao Xiao Yuxie GL

The nimble fingers are jumping on the strings, and every caress is a movement, which spreads out in the empty courtyard, melodious and beautiful.

There is a red carpet in the courtyard, and the gorgeously dressed dancers are swaying, with light steps, making people unable to take their eyes off them.

Prince Qi's mansion has not been this lively for a long time. The mansion is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and even the moonlight and candlelight seem to be faintly red.

Today is King Qi's birthday.

In previous years, it should be celebrated in the palace at this time, and the party would be as big as the emperor's birthday, but this year, Duan Xunfeng's old illness worsened, and he didn't have the energy to attend a grand banquet.

In fact, Duan Xunfeng didn't like flashy banquets at all. He wanted to use his illness as an excuse to seek leisure this year. Who knew that Duan Jinshen said that if this was the case, he would call a few close royal relatives in the Qi Palace. A dependable minister celebrated in the Qi Palace.

Duan Jinshen sat in the middle, and Duan Xunfeng sat beside him. Several short tables were laid out on both sides, one row was for royal relatives, and the other row was for courtiers.

There were not many royal relatives here, just cousins, and the courtiers were just Taifu Zhuoyu and a few others.

Ning Ling raised her head, passed the dancers in front of her, and quietly looked at Duan Xunfeng.

When she left the Liu Mansion, she asked Liu Che for a letter of recommendation to be a luthier in Prince Qi's Mansion.

Since she knew that the person Liu Luoxi liked was King Qi, she wanted to use her identity as a luthier to come to King Qi's mansion to see what kind of person King Qi was, and to see if this person was worthy of being let in by Liu Luoxi. heart.

However, after coming to Qi Palace for such a long time, she saw Duan Xunfeng very few times, and she just took a look at him from a distance.

Then I realized that the idea at the beginning was that I thought it was too simple.

She is a little luthier, how can she have any chance to get close to King Qi.

Tonight was the first time Ning Ling was so close to Duan Xunfeng.

Although it is close, there are many figures separated, and only Duan Xunfeng and Duan Jinshen can be seen talking occasionally.

After the song was over, a servant took advantage of the gap to come to her and said that the emperor had summoned her.

Ning Ling's heart skipped a beat, and she asked, "Dare to ask Eunuch, what is the matter?"

"It's not a bad thing anyway." The servant smiled flatteringly, "Hurry up, girl."

"Yes." Ning Lingfu thanked him, and followed the servants through the side corridor. In the pool under the corridor, the bougainvillea flowers were blooming alluringly.

The journey was not long, and Ning Ling soon arrived in front of the holy car, "Ning Ling, the daughter of the people, sees the emperor, and sees His Royal Highness King Qi."

The music of other luthiers continued to sound, and a new round of singing and dancing was staged in the court.

"Ning Ling?" Duan Jin smiled deeply, "The sound of the girl's piano is hidden among the musicians, but it is not buried at all. It is like the voice of the empty valley, and everyone says that the sound of the piano is like a human being. Miss Ning must have a clear mind. .”

"The emperor praised it absurdly. The women of the people are no more than ordinary people."

"Young lady is too modest." Duan Jinshen turned to Duan Xunfeng, "It's Huangjie's birthday today, I will be the master of rewards for Huangjie, Huangjie doesn't mind?"

Duan Xunfeng had no objection to such a trivial matter, he just said, "It's good that the emperor is happy."

It was just a small episode. It was common to reward a luthier and dancer at a banquet, and it didn't attract much attention. Only Tai Tuo Zhuo Yu stroked his beard and smiled like an old fox.

It is well known that King Qi is not in good health, so the banquet did not last long and dispersed within a few hours. Duan Xunfeng personally sent Duan Jinshen away, leaving Zhai He to see off the rest of the ministers.

Ning Ling walked among the luthiers, towards the Huaiyin Pavilion where they lived, a few older ones walked ahead steadily, and the younger ones surrounded her chatting.

"Let's just say that Sister Ning's piano skills are outstanding. You see, they all got the favor from the emperor."

"Sister Ning is not only outstanding in piano skills, she is not the best among us in terms of looks and knowledge."

"That's true. It's the first time I saw Shengyan. I didn't expect the emperor to be so handsome."

"Our Prince Qi wore a man's attire and compared everyone in the field."

The topic went further and further away, while chatting and laughing, the few luthiers who were walking in front suddenly knelt down, and the people behind them didn't know what was going on, looked at each other, and stepped forward quickly, only to find that Qi Wang Duan Xunfeng was waiting in person In the courtyard of Huaiyin Pavilion.

"See Your Highness." Everyone hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Miss Ning stay, the rest of you can go down." Di He, who was behind Duan Xunfeng, waved his hand, and after dismissing the crowd, he also retreated.

The night is getting darker, the bright moon is in the sky, swaying the brilliance to the fullest, falling on all things, Xia Chan is also making the last neighing in this late summer.

Ning Ling was still kneeling on the ground with her head bowed, Duan Xunfeng said, "Raise your head."

Duan Xunfeng didn't take a closer look at the banquet just now, but after taking a closer look, Duan Xunfeng noticed Ning Ling's beauty.

Ning Ling's beauty is restrained and graceful, like...

"Some people say that you are made of water?" To benefit all things without fighting, without giving people a sense of oppression, and making people feel comfortable, "No wonder my younger brother fell in love with you. This king asked you, would you like to enter the palace? If you are willing, I will guarantee you to enter the palace as a concubine, if you are not willing, I can still help you evade the emperor."

"Ning Ling is a commoner, you don't have to ask me what I want, and send me into the palace forcibly, why..."

"You don't need to know, I just ask, are you willing or not."

"My lord is because of Miss Liu." Ning Ling looked at Duan Xunfeng, "My lord should know the details of the huge Qi Palace, I'm afraid even the relationship between me and Miss Liu, the purpose of my entering the palace, Even, my heart for her."

"So what?" Ning Ling knew about this shortly after Ning Ling entered the mansion. Duan Xunfeng asked with great interest, wanting to hear what Ning Ling had to say.

Ning Ling sighed, and smiled kindly at Duan Xunfeng, "I came to Prince Qi's mansion with a purpose, but I didn't even have the chance to get close to the prince, but tonight, I have agreed."

Duan Xunfeng remained silent, waiting for Ning Ling to continue.

"Whether I want to or not is not worth mentioning to the prince. What the prince cares about is not me, but Miss Liu. If you worry about forcing me, she will blame you in the future. It's just because Miss Liu and I are old acquaintances." It is self-evident that Miss Liu is so important in my heart. The Lord has sincerity towards her, and Miss Liu has nothing to trust her." Ning Ling paused, and continued, "As for entering the palace For one thing, if I don't want it, let it go, if I am willing, the prince should have conditions."

Clever, Duan Xunfeng praised in his heart, but from her few words, so many things can be deduced, "I want you to be my person, I can guarantee your prosperity and wealth."

"Prosperity and wealth are not what I want."

"Then what do you want?"

"I just hope that the prince will treat Miss Liu kindly, and count me as a favor for her."

"She and I may not be destined to be together in the future."

"A lot of things seem to be complicated, but in fact, the answer is obvious."

"Really?" Duan Xunfeng smiled, the authorities are confused by the bystanders?

What happened recently? Did I really change, or did everyone get it wrong?

One said she had a conscience, and the other said she had a heart.

When Liu Muyan passed the courtyard, Liu Luoxi was in a daze, a purple cicada flower in her hand had been stripped to pieces, she threw the remaining flower aside irritably, and fiddled with the guqin beside her.

This was a gift from her when she was 12 years old, a fine Jiaowei Guqin.

When I am free, I always think of Duan Xunfeng, and I can't get rid of that person in my heart, Liu Luoxi sighed, and the rhythm was also chaotic.

Liu Muyan walked behind Liu Luoxi, "The sound of the qin can always reflect people's hearts in the most authentic way. Your qin music is chaotic, do you have something on your mind?"

Liu Luoxi turned her head and muttered in a low voice, "I can't hide anything from my mother's eyes."

"That's natural, others don't need to talk about it. You were born in October of my pregnancy, how can you not see it? Then, would you like to tell your mother about your thoughts?"

"I have one I like very much..." Almost slipping her tongue, Liu Luoxi quickly changed her words, "Friend."

"It's just that one day I found out that this friend is not what I used to know. She turned into a monster with teeth and claws, which makes people afraid. I am worried. Is the fate broken and can't be connected again?"

"If you can't decide, why not find the answer?"

"It's easy to say..." Liu Luoxi felt angry when she thought about it, "She is like a cloud of fog, so people can't see clearly at all."

"Has my Liu Muyan's daughter become so depressed when encountering a small incident?"

"Mother..." Liu Luoxi leaned over and leaned her head on Liu Muyan's shoulder, "This is no small matter."

"It's just a friend, why not a small thing?"

"I..." Liu Luoxi was at a loss for words, and she couldn't say that this was not an ordinary friend, otherwise, Mother would definitely ask the truth.

"When did my Luoxi become so indecisive? She is so unfeeling. If you are usually you, you will only be more tempered than others. This time, you are here alone, sad, and even the music of the piano is unreasonable. I think it is not normal. My friend, it seems like..." Liu Muyan paused, looking at her daughter with a little more teasing eyes, "Sweetie."

The words "sweetheart" made Liu Luoxi's heart skip a beat, and she quickly retorted, "Wh-how can there be any sweetheart!"

"This was just a joke, but I've confirmed it by seeing your reaction. Let me tell mother, which young master dares to ignore you, and mother will arrest him for questioning." Liu Muyan thoughtfully, then smiled slightly, The smile is sly.

"Not at all..."

"Could it be someone who can't tell mother to know." Liu Muyan joked, "You've been traveling for so long, could it be possible that you ran into some Jiangnan robbers or flower pickers and got distracted?"

"Have you already said everything?" Moreover, Duan Xunfeng is a thousand times, ten thousand times more hateful than Jiangnan robbers or flower pickers.

"Okay, if you say there is no, then there is no." The daughter has grown up and has her own secret, and Liu Muyan will not reveal it, "However, Xi'er, sometimes what you hear with your ears and what you see with your eyes may not be true. Yes, the important thing is your heart, how you think about her in your heart."

"My heart?" If she is convinced of what kind of person Duan Xunfeng is in her heart, she will not be troubled. It is because of indecision that...

Thinking about it carefully, it is true that Duan Xunfeng saved her regardless of his own safety, but is it true that he saved her only as Yin Wenyan?

Is the past that Duan Xunfeng said true?

Does she really not regret it?

If she really didn't regret it, why did she say that she was willing to exchange everything she had for Yin Wenyan on the day of the hunt.

What's more, when Duan Xunfeng wanted and wanted to do something wrong to him that day, he broke away easily with a little effort.

There are still many details, which quickly turned into doubts in Liu Luoxi's mind.

With these doubts, people are so unwilling.

"Mother, although I have only been back for a few days, I haven't been able to honor you properly, but I think I may have to travel far away again." Liu Luoxi put her arms around Liu Muyan's neck to express her apology.

"Okay, when you come back, remember to bring your sweetheart back to show mother."

"Mother!" Liu Luoxi scolded coquettishly, "They said that there is no sweetheart."

"The Liu family is in business. The first principle of doing business is not to do business at a loss, and the same is true emotionally."

"Mother!" Liu Luoxi jumped up, blushing and ran back into the room.

Liu Muyan laughed, exclaiming how good it is to be young.

Don't you do business at a loss emotionally? When I was young, I actually lost once, "Luo Yun, if you are still alive, do I have a chance to impress you?"

Knowing that it was the most useless hypothesis, Liu Muyan couldn't help thinking about it.
