I'm a bully in troubled times

Unexpectedly, Qi Ranming's eyes dodged for a moment.

Qi Ranming rarely showed such obvious flaws in front of Jiang Yu.

"...It's nothing." Qi Ranming said.

Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows: "Okay." If you open your eyes and talk nonsense, I will pretend to believe it.

If you don't look at the years of battles outside, but only look at the scene inside the hall, it really makes people mistakenly think that this is a world of singing and dancing.The beauty dances with graceful sleeves, soft waist and limbs, every move of hand and every throw of foot is full of charm.The sound of the piano and the sound of the flute, and the sound of the harp accompanied by the chime bells, the sound of the music stopped the clouds, and the lingering sound lingered around the beams for three days without end.

But a rough and vigorous laughter was gradually mixed in, it was the voice of a middle-aged man, it came from Shi Xiang, Shangqing of the Jin Kingdom who was sitting diagonally across from Jiang Yu.

Shi Xiang is good at wine, Jiang Yu checked this person, but he didn't expect him to be so good.Looking from afar, I saw that Shi Xiang with a big belly was flushed from drinking at this moment, and he didn't know where he was. Looking at the two beauties, they played with each other intimately like no one else, and didn't care at all that this was at the monarch's birthday banquet.

Jiang Yu raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Mengming who was sitting on the throne. Although Ji Mengming was still generous and decent, the veins on his forehead were tense, and the corners of his eyes glanced at His Highness's loudly joking courtier from time to time.If you look carefully, you can see that Ji Mengming's fingers holding the wine glass are turning white.

Jiang Yu raised the wine glass to his lips, raised his sleeve to cover it, raised his head and drank it down, lowered his head with a smile and thought: It seems that this birthday party will not be so peaceful.

Just thinking about it, someone stood up during the banquet and said loudly:

"Chong has always heard that Lord Suiyang was good at playing the qin, and a piece of high mountains and flowing water once shook the entire Jidu. How do you like it?"

It was Ji Zhong who spoke, and he stood up gracefully, holding a cup to Jiang Yu with a smile on his lips.

Qi Ranming immediately frowned when he heard the words, and stared at Ji Zhong displeasedly. Ji Zhong didn't dodge or hide, and looked back generously. The eyes of the two collided in mid-air, but only for a moment, Qi Ranming moved away. line of sight.

The other side was half drunk, and was in a state of drunkenness and cowardice, not to mention that Shi Xiang was not cowardly at first, so he immediately slapped the table and shouted: "Okay!"

"The old minister also listened to Suiyang Lord's qin back then, but Suiyang Lord was still young at that time. Now that many years have passed, his qin art must have become more refined. Presumably Suiyang Lord will not hesitate to play a piece for the king, right?"

There were two heavyweights, Ji Zhong and Shi Xiang, speaking, and it was difficult for the rest to intervene.

Seeing that Jiang Yu didn't agree, Ji Mengming thought he was unwilling, so he hurriedly rescued the scene, waved his hand and said, "Mr. Suiyang is a distinguished guest, how can there be any reason to let the distinguished guest play the piano?"

Ji Zhong said unhurriedly: "The Marquis of Jin is young and promising, and he is a feudal prince entrusted by his father. Since Lord Suiyang has this piano skill, there is nothing wrong with playing this song for the Marquis of Jin. Suiyang You won't refuse, will you?"

Jiang Yu raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Chong.

"His Royal Highness just arrived yesterday, I don't know if I think about it." At this time, another young man in his twenties stood out from the banquet, dressed in a blue court dress. Yang Jun was injured two days ago, and the injury is still not healed at the moment, so it may be inconvenient to play music."

Jiang Yu turned his head and looked at the speaker in surprise. This person was sitting on the throne of the envoys of the Song Dynasty. It seemed that he was probably the famous son Zhongli of the Song Dynasty.

Zhongli Jun is the Prince of the Song Dynasty who is one of the sons of the Great Zhou Dynasty together with Jiang Yu. His surname is Zi and his name is Hui.

Due to Song Guoguo's small power, this Mr. Zhongli has been keeping a low profile a few days ago and rarely participated in the battles between big powers. He did not expect to speak for Jiang Yu on such an occasion.

After Zhongli Jun finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Jiang Yu, and smiled slightly.

Ji Zhongdao: "I'm afraid Mr. Zhongli underestimated Mr. Suiyang, who is Mr. Suiyang, just a little injury, or is Mr. Suiyang unwilling to play this song for His Highness Marquis of Jin?"

If it is said that Ji Zhong's meaning was still confusing just now, it will be obvious after these words.For a while, everyone at the banquet had different thoughts—Ji Zhong was clearly targeting Jiang Yu, but why?

Jiang Yu also greeted Mr. Zhongli with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Zhongli for your concern, Yu is fine."

Then he also stood up, bowed again to Ji, walked slowly to the center of the hall, knelt down and said, "His Royal Highness's birthday, and Yu should play a song for His Highness. It's just that he is injured. If he plays the wrong song, His Highness is welcome." Don't be offended."

Ji Mengming frowned: "Mr. Suiyang, since you are injured, why don't you go back and sit down? There is a violinist for playing the piano, so why do you need Mr. Suiyang to play in person?"

Shi Xiang said with a big tongue: "My lord, you are the lord, and the lord of Suiyang is a minister, so you should play a piece of music. Come, let's play the qin!"

Zhao Di didn't seem to like Shi Xiang's appearance very much, he was born with a black face, and when he was unhappy, his face would stretch out, as if someone owed him money: "Shi Xiang, this is the king's birthday banquet! Misconduct is a serious crime!"

Ji Mengming looked at Jiang Yu hesitantly, and seeing Jiang Yu insisted, he exchanged a glance with the queen beside him, and the queen said: "Since it is Lord Suiyang, naturally you can't use an ordinary qin, come and fetch the Phoenix for me. To Lord Suiyang."

Hearing this, the palace man bowed his knees and bowed, said in a low voice: "Yes." Then he retreated.

Ji Mengming waved his hand to stop the singing and dancing in the hall.The queen smiled softly and explained to Jiang Yu: "Phoenix is ​​my most beloved piano. It has been with me for many years. Lord Suiyang is a person who knows how to play the piano. Today I invite Lord Suiyang to taste it for me. "

Jiang Yu said: "It's Yu's luck that the queen is willing to part with her. The Qin that the queen can cherish so much is naturally a good piano, and Yu dare not talk nonsense."

The queen is from the Shi family. She was sent to the palace at a young age and became Ji Mengming's queen.

Ji Chong smiled and said: "Mr. Sui Yang, don't think I'm rude. You only became the crown prince last year, but Mr. Sui Yang has been famous for several years. You have heard of Mr. Sui Yang's name a lot. Now that you see a real person, you will inevitably think about it." Let’s see if it’s really like the legend.”

Jiang Yu said: "The prince is the crown prince, how dare Jiang Yu compare with the prince, His Highness is absurd."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is targeting him, but he insists on clearing himself up. He is really a hypocrite. How could Qi Ranming follow such a person before.For some reason, Jiang Yu didn't like him very much the first time he saw this man.From the strands of his hair to his toes, this person revealed hostility towards him.

After a while, the piano came up.

Fenghuang is a Fuxi-style qin with a simple and elegant body. There are beautiful plum blossoms on the body of the qin, and two small characters of "Phoenix" are engraved on the body of the qin, without other decorations.Jiang Yu tried to play a few notes, but the sound of the piano was not as soft and harmless as the queen seemed, but there was a bit of the sound of a golden sword and a murderous spirit in it, which surprised Jiang Yu a little.

"The title of this song is "Crane Monkey Birthday". Jiang Yu wishes His Royal Highness the longevity of the crane in the year of the tortoise, and the sun and the moon will be bright."
