Hotaru [The Tale of Genji]

December 25th is Donggong's birthday.There is a banquet in the Qingliang Hall, and the ministers gather.The atmosphere this year is very different from previous years, and everyone has a vague foretelling in their hearts: this young His Highness will soon succeed Dabao and become the next owner.Honghui Palace and the right ministers also intend to build momentum, all the ministers cheered up 12 points, if they can win the favor of the East Palace at this birthday banquet, their official career will be smoother in the future.

Prince Guang dressed very low-key today, and didn't want to show off.But his appearance is there, and the most ordinary dress can't conceal his elegance.

Joy rings to stop Xingyun, and hears the sound of the East Palace coming.Surrounded by everyone, he walked slowly in the middle, with a magnificent appearance, and everyone who saw him was impressed by him.If Prince Guang is the most beautiful person today, but his appearance is too perfect for people to get close to.But the gentle and elegant posture of the Eastern Palace is so gentle and elegant, it makes people feel good at the first sight and wants to get close to it.When he talks, he laughs and talks, gentle and polite.Between looking and looking, the spirit is like a spring breeze, which makes people forget the customs.

The Minister of the Highness could not help feeling that this would be a very gentle lord in the future.

Everyone saluted and congratulated them on their birthday.After the ceremony, he was seated, had a banquet, drank wine, and sang and danced.For a while, the fairy music fluttered and the dancing posture was light.The luxurious and lively scene is like nothing in the world.Everyone toasted to celebrate the birthday, wishing the East Palace a happy life and a healthy life. The scene was spectacular, and it was indeed a royal celestial phenomenon, which made people amazed.

After a round of wine, everyone offered birthday gifts.There are many kinds of treasures. The most rare thing is that Prince Guang found an exquisite hand-copied authentic Buddhist scriptures. When he presented it, he really shocked everyone.Everyone was moved by Prince Guang's respect and love for his elder brother.Majesty was very satisfied with the gifts sent by everyone, and turned his head to see His Royal Highness the fourth prince who was talking to the East Palace with his head tilted.

The little prince held up his own wine glass and said something under Hedong Palace.After Suzaku heard the words, he drank all the fine wine in the glass, and Prince Ying was very happy to see this, and went to the East Palace and said something, which made the East Palace laugh, and the scene was very intoxicating.

Ying looked at the person in front of him, there was a very shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, and the drooping eyelashes like crow feathers covered those gentle eyes.The lamp pot is flowing, and there seems to be a thin layer of water mist in the eyes, which is radiant.Suzaku seemed to be a little drunk, and rested his chin on the other hand, playing with the wine glass.

His Royal Highness was stared at by the East Palace, and his expression became a little dazed.As if bewitched, he couldn't help but get closer, so close that he could almost touch his brother's breath.

Suzaku smiled, stretched out his hand to embrace Ying, letting him lean against his chest.His Royal Highness the fourth prince smelled the faint smell of alcohol exhaled by the person in front of him mixed with the incense on his body.This fragrance is exactly the green bamboo that Yingying sent over.

His Royal Highness Ying felt that his cheeks were hot and his legs were a little soft.That wonderful fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, and the burst of heat from Suzaku's chest made him dizzy even more.The prince seemed to be bewitched by something unsolved.There is a young, lingering affection awakened, which makes Prince Ying feel extremely longing and flustered.

Unfamiliar, in an instant, an intoxicating feeling hit the prince's mind, Yingying leaned against Suzaku's arms and couldn't help trembling, and let out a very vague sob.

"What's the matter, do you feel cold?" The hot air flowed over Prince Ying's neck when Donggong asked.His Highness the Fourth Highness couldn't help but raised his neck, only to find that almost his entire body was nestled into Suzaku's arms.He quickly backed away, shaking his head at Suzaku very embarrassedly.

"No, I'm fine."

"Ha, Hotaru just acted like a spoiled child."

Prince Ying lowered his head and blinked his eyes, not understanding why he lost his composure all of a sudden.The feeling that made him dizzy finally receded like a tide.Although his cheeks were hot, he still recovered his clarity.Just as he was about to refute Suzaku's ridicule, he heard Imakami calling himself from the throne.

"Yingying, my fourth prince, what did you give to the East Palace?"

Making fun of Hotaru's attachment to Suzaku seems to make Konaka enjoy it very much.On days like this, I can't help but joke about it.The subordinates at the bottom of the ranks all said things like brother, friend and brother respect, and couldn't help but look at the Fourth Highness.The relationship between Donggong and His Highness the Fourth Highness is so deep, so if he pleases the prince in the future, why not show his face in front of Donggong.

"Reporting to my father, my son sent a portrait to His Royal Highness, brother."

"Oh, is that so? Is it the Eastern Palace?"

"Exactly..."

"Okay, okay," Jinshang clapped his hands and said in a loud voice, "Hurry up, take out this painting, I want to have a good look at it. Donggong, you don't mind my father touching your birthday gift."

His Royal Highness Suzaku smiled and said, "I dare not, my father pleases."

The palace attendants quickly presented the paintings and displayed them in the bright hall.The moment the picture scroll showed its true colors, there were gasps of air one after another in Qingliang Hall.

Because of this painting, the painting is really good.Whether it's technique or color, it really doesn't look like the handwriting of an underage prince, it's truly unique in the world.

The fourth prince learned from others' strengths. Among his many skills, painting is the best.From the talent that this child has shown since he was a child, it is destined that he will describe all the stunning beauty in this world.

This painting is a redrawn by His Royal Highness the Four Highnesses who followed the sound of the gallery.The original painting at the end of the pen lost its artistic conception due to the change of the master's mind, and was soaked in the drizzle of spring together with those confused emotions.The re-created one is more perfect than the original one, and the artistic conception is more spacious, which makes people's eyes bright and admirable.

Dong Gongxia knew that His Royal Highness Ying was good at painting good things, but when the painting was shown in front of him, he still couldn't help but be shocked by it.The shallow and hazy drunkenness dissipated from Suzaku's eyes, they became clear and clear, and then emitted infinite light.He never knew that he once showed such an enviable expression.

In the painting, the young man in the corridor stands with the flute, and it seems that the sound of the wind carries the sound of the flute to the distant sky.The smiling eyes of the young man seemed to follow the wind, everything was clear and free, everything was so calm and breezy.

Pianpian is independent from the world, but she should know that the world is not a fairy.

Looking at the painting, Dong Gong seemed very happy.A genuine smile stained Suzaku's eyes, "Ah, so I used to be so calm..."

From just now, Hotaru has been paying attention to Suzaku's expression.That kind of genuine liking made His Royal Highness feel a little flustered, but finally calmed down a bit.His Highness blinked, and said very sincerely: "That day, the Suzaku I saw looked like this."

"You draw really well. Compared with the person in the painting, Brother Huang really feels ashamed."

"No, Suzaku is good in everything. A painting is just a painting, not as good as a real person." Prince Ying said firmly, paused, and asked again: "Then, do you like this painting?"

"Yes, I like it."

I love so much.

In this deep courtyard of the palace, in this involuntary world, I was free for a moment.Even if it is fleeting, there are still pieces of good fortune left in the world, reminding me that this world is not all sadness and falsehood.

Suzaku smiled, so beautifully and sincerely.

"I like it very much."

"Oh, oh... this is really..." The Holy One finally recovered from the shock.He clicked his lips and shook his head, muttering something to say, but he didn't know what to say.Taking a deep breath, he sighed to the minister below: "You have a very good grandson..."

Even though he was full of pride, the minister still looked calm, and replied calmly, "Your Majesty, you also have a very good prince."

This painting is really good.

Just because of Prince Ying's kindness, he will be rewarded today.He ordered to reward Donggong and Prince Ying with many things, all of which are incomparable treasures.After Donggong and Fourth Highness thanked him, Imakami smiled and said to Donggong, "These are gifts from my father. You should also thank your younger brother for receiving such treasures."

"Exactly, what does Firefly want?"

His Royal Highness tilted his head, thought carefully for a while, then shook his head and said, "When I painted this painting, I only wanted Suzaku to be happy. I never thought of asking for something in return. , my son's heart is not pure. Brother Huang, you don't need to give anything back, the person who celebrates your birthday today is you."

If you say such sensible words, how can you not be praised by others.No matter who heard these words, they must be deeply moved by the relationship between Prince Ying and His Majesty Donggong.

The front is so lively, the women's side is also full of commotion.Not to mention how many Gongqing daughters were fascinated by the grace of the painting, Prince Ying's painting skills are enough to amaze people.

"I used to be conceited about my talent, but now I only know that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky. It's really embarrassing..."

The one who said this was the daughter of Prince Taoyuan Shi.Because of her independent personality and delicate appearance, she is known as the face of the court.Jin Ji looked at the painting in admiration, her mouth full of praise.Her words attracted echoes and admiration from many people—everyone was impressed by the painting.

Sitting behind the curtain embroidered with light grass patterns, the lady of the Chengxiang Palace flaunted softly to the Jiao Shibu: "How about it, this is my son..."

"Indeed, His Royal Highness is unmatched in excellence."

"Oh," His Royal Highness glanced at Jiao Shibu, "It's really rare that you would say such a straightforward compliment."

"Don't dare, His Royal Highness's demeanor performance does not need to be judged by concubines. The concubine is just telling the truth."

On the other hand, the Queen of Honghui Hall was also very satisfied with this gift.She didn't care how well the painting was done, but the East Palace in this painting was really amazing.This satisfied her vanity very much.At the same time, Honghuidian became more and more satisfied with the mother and son when he heard about the people around Chengxiangdian running on the barnacles not long ago.

Judging from these actions, the Minister of Internal Affairs will sooner or later belong to the Minister of the Right.What's the use of marrying the princess' daughter? That Genji is really nothing to worry about.Thinking of this, Yuzhi, the daughter of Honghui Palace, smiled triumphantly.

There are also some unsuitable words among the praises one after another.

"It's just a painting..."

"Forbidden."

A palace attendant next to the barnacle female emperor seemed very unhappy to see such a scene.She tilted her head and said something with extreme disdain, unwilling to admit such talent.

She was the one who took the lead in running against Chengxiang Palace that day.Because the barnacles are favored, they are a little arrogant on weekdays and offended many people.The last time she was suppressed by the Jiao Shibu, I don't know how many people secretly gloated about her misfortune.The most important thing is that she made Nu Yu unhappy because of this, so she was naturally unhappy in her heart.Just as she was about to complain, she was reprimanded by the barnacle maid, so she had to shut up resentfully.

The barnacle female royal looked so delicate and pleasing to the eye as the Fourth Prince was talking to the East Palace.She seemed a little melancholy, she stretched out her hand to caress her lower abdomen, lost in thought.

The author has something to say: Pianpian is independent from the world, but you should know that the world is not a fairy.

The translation is: Oh shit, I know she is so pretty.But babies, don't be confused, you are really a mortal, not a fairy, don't be an idiot.

Still the same sentence, don't care about the rigor, everything is for pretending! XD

Geunhee is Chaoyan.I admire this girl quite a lot. She has a relationship with Genji, but she has a calm and independent personality, and she hasn't lost herself because she loves Genji wholeheartedly.Of course, it's also because she doesn't have to live with Genji, so the ending is not so tragic.

that's all.

I have to go to work tomorrow, I really want to play dead TAT
