County's main favorite wife
Chapter 46 Playing
After hearing Qin Qi's words, Yue Ruxin's phoenix eyes revealed the clarity of "so it is".She smiled and said, "Li'er, you choose to be with the princess, but I don't know how many men will have their hearts broken."
"Aunt Xin..." Gu Li blushed. "I don't have anything to do today, I'm here to see you. Also..." She took out a 1 tael silver note from her clothes and handed it to Yue Ruxin. "I know that Aunt Xin is not short of money, but I don't need it now, so let me put it here with Aunt Xin, and Aunt Xin saved it for me."
Yue Ruxin took the bank note, "Forget it. You will always need money in the future. The princess has followed you, so you have to prepare well for this betrothal gift."
"Aunt Xin!" Qin Qi quit this time. "People don't want dowry gifts!"
Uh... Gu Li once again lamented that Qin Qi's focus always seems to be crooked.
Yue Ruxin's charming eyes fell on Qin Qi, and her eyes were full of kindness.She doesn't plan to get married in this life, and when she gets old, she will find a countryside with beautiful mountains and rivers to spend the rest of her life.But watching Chuxue's daughter find a partner, even though she is also a girl, she is also happy for the lost sister.
"There is a big show tonight, do you want to watch it?" she asked.
Before Gu Li could speak, Qin Qi asked curiously, "What big show?"
Yue Ruxin led the two of them to the back of the stage.Many musical instruments have been placed here, even konghou, which is rarely seen on weekdays.
"A famous master came to Yunguo, and she has some friendship with me. She specially arranged a big show for the workshop, and today is the performance the day before. Don't you know?" The flower card at the entrance of Xinyuefang has long been put out At first, she thought that Gu Li and Qin Qi were here to watch a show.
"That's a coincidence." Gu Li asked Qin Qi, "Want to see it?"
"Of course I have to watch it!" Qin Qi clapped his hands excitedly.
Gu Li knew that Qin Qi liked to be lively, so he would not miss such a good show. "Go back and have dinner and come back."
Qin Qi was attracted by the musical instruments and refused to leave.
"Why, Aunt Xin can't afford you a dinner here?" Yue Ruxin smiled and called a girl over, "Yinge, take Princess Feng'an to the rehearsal room at the back to see the excitement."
The girl named Yinge gave a salute, and she didn't flinch when she saw Qin Qi, she said with a smile: "Master Feng'an, please follow me."
Qin Qi looked back at Gu Li, obviously Gu Li was not very interested in watching the excitement.Qin Qi said: "Sister Li, I'm going to watch the fun first. I'll come back to you later."
"Don't make trouble!" Gu Li couldn't help exhorting.
"Got it!" Qin Qi responded, happily following Yin Ge away.
Yue Ruxin looked at Qin Qi and said with emotion: "The little princess has a good temper, and she is so cute in front of you."
"She's fine." Gu Li's eyes followed Qin Qi's back.
Yue Ruxin already felt the changes in Gu Li during this time.Gu Li, who had just entered the capital, was polite but indifferent.But now Gu Li is more lively.
The two went back to Yue Ruxin's room and sat down, Yue Ruxin asked: "How is your mother's investigation going?"
"It was Wu Siran's poison. Although Gu Haozhi didn't intervene, he knew about it." Gu Li said coldly. "A few days ago when I went back home, Wu Siran poisoned me to buy me. I guess Gu Haozhi also knew about it. Aunt Xin, I really didn't expect such a cowardly man to exist in this world."
Yue Ruxin patted the table with her hand. "Sure enough, it was her who did it!" Recalling the deep love between sisters back then, bit by bit.When Yao Chuxue was abandoned by Gu Haozhi, all her thoughts were lost, and she was delighted when she found out that she was pregnant.At that time, the two agreed that no matter whether the child was a boy or a girl, the two sisters would raise the child.If one person is gone, the other person must keep his promise and stick to it to the end.
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Yue Ruxin's eyes.Seeing Gu Li was startled, he hurriedly persuaded: "Aunt Xin, it's been so many years, don't be too sad."
"In the past 17 years, I have always thought of Chu Xue. She is such a gentle woman, God is not fair! Why did she meet Gu Haozhi, who kills thousands of swords! Li'er, even if she was abandoned by Gu Haozhi back then, With me around, life can go on. She doesn't have any extravagant hopes, but why doesn't the Gu family let her go?" Yue Ruxin's emotions, which had been suppressed for a long time, were all vented at this moment.
Gu Li's eye sockets were also a little red. "Aunt Xin, these years have been hard for you. I will avenge my mother's revenge. I will not let Gu Haozhi and Wu Siran go."
Yue Ruxin cried for a while, and gradually stopped crying. "Li'er, have you ever thought about killing your own father, which is a capital offense under Ming Xi's law!"
Gu Li smiled, "At worst, I'll leave Mingxi, originally I was going back to Feiyejin."
Yue Ruxin nodded.He deeply felt that he had made the right bet when he took the risk of sending Gu Li to Feiyejin. "Anyway, be careful. If you need my help, just say it."
Gu Li took Yue Ruxin's hand and said, "Aunt Xin, after so many years, let go of what should be let go. My mother is under the Nine Springs, and I definitely hope that you can live happily."
Yue Ruxin nodded vigorously, and tears flowed out again. "I understand, I understand."
The two chatted together for a long time, until a little maid knocked on the door outside, saying that dinner was ready.Only then did Gu Li realize that they hadn't reported to the eldest princess' mansion yet.Yue Ruxin sent a servant to take a bead flower on Gu Li's head to the Princess's Mansion to say she would return tonight.
"How is the princess treating you?" Yue Ruxin asked after wiping away her tears while applying powder in front of the mirror.
"Very good." Gu Li smiled softly.This made Yue Ruxin understand that Gu Li was very happy in the princess' mansion.
"That's good." Yue Ruxin took Gu Li out to the rehearsal room.Before entering the door, I heard the sound of various musical instruments playing inside.
When the two entered the door, the girls inside saw Yue Ruxin and called out "Aunt Xin".Gu Li saw Qin Qi sitting next to a guzheng, listening to the command of the person in front, and began to play along.Seeing Gu Li coming in, Qin Qi didn't move, but winked mischievously at her.
This... isn't it just for fun?How did you get into the playing team?Gu Li looked at Yue Ruxin, and Yue Ruxin laughed. "The little princess is really a living treasure."
"Stop making trouble, Aunt Xin. Aren't you afraid that she will screw up your drama?" Gu Li couldn't imagine such a scene.
Yue Ruxin crossed her arms, "I'm not afraid."
"Talk out!" The two whispered, but the person in front of the room became unhappy and said something coldly.
Only then did Gu Li turn his attention to the person in front of him.It was a woman in her 30s.There is an obvious difference between the style of clothing and Ming Xi's style.Her hair was coiled on top of her head and combed carefully with pomade, not a single strand fell out.This is a very beautiful woman, and the makeup on her face is also meticulous.For some reason, Gu Li always felt that she had seen this person before.After thinking about it carefully, Gu Li blurted out, "The people in Yunguo Palace?"
The woman finally stopped her hand, and was also looking at Gu Li carefully. "How did the girl know that I came from the Yunguo Palace?"
Gu Li frowned, "I seem to have seen Senior somewhere before." But she really couldn't remember.But Yunguo... Her eyes lit up. "Senior, have you been to Feiyejin?"
The woman was startled when she heard the words, and after thinking for a moment, her eyebrows finally relaxed, "So it's you. I remember your name is Gu Li, right?"
Gu Li nodded. "Senior came to see Senior Sister Jingsu back then." Now I remembered everything.
That year, she was only seven years old, but Jiang Fengmin had already snatched her from Wen Xiange's sect to become his apprentice.Then, she saw her fellow senior sister, Princess Yunjing Feng Jingsu of Yunguo.At that time, Feng Jingsu had been studying under Jiang Fengmin's sect for a year. Seeing this little junior sister snatched back by her master, Feng Jingsu showed great kindness.Gu Li is indifferent, and he will not refuse or rely on his senior sister's concern.In this way, at the Dragon Boat Festival in the coming year, Yunguo sent someone to visit Feng Jingsu, and it was this woman.She can't remember the woman's name.All I know is that she is Wen Xiange's good friend, she is a music teacher in Yunguo Palace, and she is a high-ranking female official.
It is a joy to meet an old friend.But now is not the time to reminisce.The woman asked Yue Ruxin and Gu Li to sit aside, and she continued to direct the girls to play music.
"What's the name of this senior?" Gu Li asked in a low voice.
"Xi Zhiyao." Yue Ruxin's voice was also very low.
Even Gu Li, who doesn't care much about other things, has heard of Xi Zhiyao's name.Back then, she was as famous as Wen Xiange, both of whom were well-known women in the mainland.Wen Xiange is good at composing music, Xi Zhiyao is good at playing.The two of them once performed a song "The Song of Emerald Cold Smoke" together at the Tian Music Workshop in Xingguo, which attracted thousands of people.Later, Wen Xiange entered Feiyejin Academy, and Xi Zhiyao was enshrined in the court of Yunguo.
"I actually forgot such a famous person." Gu Li was speechless about his memory.
"It's not that you can't remember, it's that you don't care at all." Yue Ruxin teased.
The sound of silk and bamboo sounded in the room, and various musical instruments matched together, unexpectedly harmonious.Surprisingly, Qin Qi didn't make any discordant sounds when he played the zither.
Yue Ruxin nudged Gu Li with her elbow and pouted towards Qin Qin. "The princess is a talent." She is a guzheng player, and she can tell how good Qin Qi's skills are.Although he couldn't compare with her, at least among this group of girls, Qin Qi's skills did not lag behind.
"Aunt Xin just said that she is a living treasure." Gu Li smiled.
The rehearsal is finally over.The girls in the room all went back to their rooms to finish their meal, and then dressed up, making final preparations for tonight's big show.
Xi Zhiyao came over and looked at Gu Li and said, "Xiange mentioned you before, your skills should be very high." She deliberately emphasized the word "should".
Gu Li said with a smile: "In front of Senior Xi, this junior dare not make mistakes."
Xi Zhiyao didn't mean to be polite, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Play a song for me."
Gu Li never had stage fright, even when facing such a famous senior, he was still in a peaceful state of mind.She picked up a pipa, and lightly squeezed her fingers together, and the pearly sound of the pipa flowed out.
Qin Qi didn't move, just sat on the seat and tilted his head to watch Gu Li play.No matter how familiar she is, she will still be dazzled by Gu Li's various beauties.
What Gu Li played was just ordinary tunes, which Qin Qi knew well.But the more common the piece is, the more difficult it is for everyone to know it.Gu Li's skills have passed the stage of deliberately pursuing difficulty and showing off his skills, and have entered the realm of returning to basics.
After playing a song, Xi Zhiyao nodded. "Sure enough, he is talented. No wonder Xian Ge was robbed by his apprentice for so long."
Qin Qi, who was at the side, said, "Senior! Can you let sister Li participate in the performance tonight?" Her voice was clear and crisp, and her pretty appearance was extremely pleasing.
Xi Zhiyao shook her head without thinking. "Her skills are too high. The most important thing in an ensemble is balance. Once she joins in, you can't keep up with her skills, and you will highlight her pipa sound and magnify your shortcomings infinitely."
"That's it." Qin Qi stuck out his tongue.Sure enough, sister Li is amazing!
"Thank you for your compliment, senior." Gu Li bowed.Pull Qin Qi back to the side.Yue Ruxin finally had a chance to speak, "Master Xi, dinner is ready."
Xi Zhiyao seemed to be feeling hungry at this moment, nodded and glanced at Gu Li and Qin Qi, and followed Yue Ruxin out.
Qin Qi stretched his neck to watch, and Gu Li picked him up and put him on the chair and asked, "What's the matter with you? You also want to participate in the evening performance?"
Qin Qi nodded sharply. "Senior said I can do it!"
"You are the princess." Gu Li had to remind.Although she doesn't feel that Lefang women are inferior, most people in the world don't see it that way.Qin Qi's status is precious, so it's not good to spread it out.
"What's the matter? Sister Li also played on stage." Qin Qi hugged Gu Li's waist and put his face on her body, "Sister Li doesn't mind, why should I?"
Gu Li touched Qin Qi's cheek, feeling the soft skin on his fingertips. "Then you have to work hard and don't lose face."
"Of course!" Qin Qi was delighted, last time she watched Gu Li play in Xinyuefang, this time the roles were changed, Gu Li wanted to watch her play.
While the two were talking, Yin Ge, who had led Qin Qi the way before, came in and invited them to dinner.After dinner, Qin Qi immediately went back to the rehearsal room to practice the Guzheng, and it turned out to be very hard.
After a while, other girls also came.Obviously, the stage is about to come, and everyone is afraid to relax.Standing at the back of the room, Gu Li looked at the girls who came in one after another for the final rehearsal, and found that there was Yinge inside.
"She's a singer." Yue Ruxin said beside Gu Li.
"Still singing?" Gu Li was surprised.
Yue Ruxin smiled smugly, "That's why it can be called a big show."
Yin Ge stood in front, and the others played a piece of "I'm Safe".After that, the music stopped for a while, and when it resumed, it was a song that Gu Li had never heard before.She looked at Yue Ruxin suspiciously, hoping to get an answer, Yue Ruxin pointed to Yinge in front of her, Gu Li followed her finger and looked over, Yinge spoke at this moment.
"At the beginning of the evening makeup, the skin is snowing, and the concubines of the Spring Palace are lined up. The shengxiao blows off the water and the clouds open, and the neon clothes sing all over. Who is more fragrant in the wind, drunk and patting the rails. When you return, you will put candles and red flowers. , wait for the horseshoe to clear the night moon."
It is "Jade House Spring" written by the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty.Yin Ge looked plain and ordinary, but her singing voice was mellow and affectionate.Even a cold-hearted person like Gu Li was a little moved when he heard this.
"Girl Yinge's singing voice is so beautiful, Aunt Xin is used to knowing people." Gu Li said.
"She is a girl I picked up by the side of the road. Who would have thought that it was a piece of jade." Yue Ruxin took in this helpless little girl just because of a moment of benevolence.Unexpectedly, after several years of teaching, Yin Ge's voice is getting better and better.
At night, Xinyue Square is brightly lit.The already lively place has attracted more guests because of tonight's big show.During the period, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries were present, and the hall was full of seats, even the private rooms were full of people.Gu Li was standing on the edge of the stage, and he could see the situation in front and backstage.
Yue Ruxin doesn't have time to accompany her right now. As the person in charge, she is too busy to go around at the moment.
After a few stage performances, the bright lights in the hall were blown out.Only the stage is still as bright as day.The veil that had been drawn was slowly pulled away, and inside were a group of girls who had already sat down.Most of the women in Lefang rely on their skills to make a living, and they don't have high requirements for appearance.However, after all, it is probably in the [-]s and [-]s. Even if the appearance is not amazing, it is better than youth.With so many girls sitting on the stage, the guests present gasped in surprise without moving their instruments.
Xi Zhiyao in the shadow beside him made a gesture, and the guzheng played first, but it was not Qin Qi.Apparently Qin Qi only joined temporarily, and it wasn't originally planned.Afterwards, various musical instruments were played one by one, and it was "One World Peace".
At the end of the song, there was a wave of applause.
The well-dressed Yin Ge slowly came out from behind, and the prelude to "Jade House Spring" started, and with Yin Ge's melodious singing, all the guests present showed obsessive expressions.
Gu Li's gaze was on Qin Qi most of the time.The little rabbit always has a smile on his face.She really enjoyed the performance.Her skills were similar to those of the girls present, which gave her confidence.Those little hands rubbed and pressed the strings on the guzheng, especially the fingering skills were used very well.
Silver sang and then retreated.Then came two famous songs.Yinge came to the stage again and sang Li Bai's "Autumn Wind Ci": "The autumn wind is clear, the autumn moon is bright, the fallen leaves gather and disperse, and the jackdaws roost and startle again. When we will meet each other, we will be embarrassed at this night; enter my lovesickness door , I know that lovesickness is bitter, long-term lovesickness is long-term lovesickness, short-term lovesickness is endless, I knew it was so stumbling, why didn't I know each other at the beginning." The voice was mournful, like weeping and complaining.
Gu Li doesn't like this kind of music very much.This is also the reason why she can't play "Zhaojun's Out of the Fortress" well, but she can play "House of Flying Daggers" extremely well, because of her personality.However, Xinyuefang opened its doors to do business, and the music is the most suitable music.
After that, there were three more songs, and a big drama ended, winning the house.Qin Qi behaved well when he followed the crowd down the stage, but when he saw Gu Li, he threw himself into her arms and smiled, "Sister Li, is Qi Qi doing well?"
"Of course." Gu Li saw that people passing by were looking at the two of them, and hurriedly carried the little rabbit back to the backyard. "What's the matter?" Gu Li asked Qin Qi frowned when he found her holding Qin Qi's hand.
"It's nothing, it's just that my fingers hurt a little." Qin Qi raised his left hand to show Gu Li.She is a pampered princess who has not touched the guzheng for a long time.I kept pressing the strings with my left hand tonight, and my delicate fingertips were already red and swollen from the strings.
Gu Li couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw it.Holding her hand and blowing gently, "Why are you bothering?"
Qin Qi continued to raise his fingers and said, "It won't hurt to kiss my sister."
"Nonsense!" After talking, Gu Li still put her left hand to his mouth and kissed each finger delicately.
Qin Qi's face was red, his ears were red, and his big eyes were blinking shyly but happily.
Yue Ruxin, who was passing by, opened the door and saw this scene, and hastily covered her eyes with her hands. "Ouch! I didn't see anything. Why don't you young couple go home?" She didn't see anything, but her voice was loud, attracting many onlookers.
Gu Li and Qin Qi hurriedly let go, Qin Qi's face turned even redder.No matter how bold she was in front of Gu Li, it was because there was no one else.In front of outsiders, she is still very shy.
At the critical moment, Gu Li was more aggressive, stood up and stood in front of the door, smiling at everyone.The temperature that dropped in that instant froze the onlookers away. "Aunt Xin, did you do this on purpose?" Gu Li asked.
"Man, you will get thicker after going through it a few more times." Yue Ruxin was in a great mood, she blinked after speaking, hummed a little tune and left.
"Are you gone?" Qin Qi's small head poked out from behind Gu Li, seeing that everyone had left, she covered her mouth and giggled.
"Smile when you get into trouble!" Gu Li pretended to be vicious, but was amused by Qin Qi's adorable expression of tilting his head to look at him. "Let's go, it's time to go back home."
"Okay." Qin Qi obediently took Gu Li's hand and walked out.
The guests in front were still there at the moment, Yue Ruxin was afraid that the two of them would cause some trouble if they went out, so she arranged for them to go through the back door.Coming out of the back door of Xinyuefang is a narrow alley, which is very quiet at this time.
The two walked hand in hand in the dark alley, Gu Li asked, "Are you afraid?"
Qin Qi shook his head. "I'm not afraid. Sister Li protects me." She felt so proud.
The alley was not long, and the two had already walked back to the street where Xinyuefang was located.At this time, there were people going in and out of Xinyuefang from time to time. Seeing these two girls, especially Gu Li, several people stopped in their tracks.
Gu Li just glanced at them lightly, then pulled Qin Qi to continue walking outside.But one person said: "Are you two girls from Xinyuefang?"
"No." Gu Li spat out two words without stopping.
"She's talking nonsense!" A man who just came out of Xinyue Workshop said: "They are the girls in the workshop!" The man pointed at Qin Qi and continued: "She was still playing the tune just now."
Qin Qi held Gu Li's hand and clenched it tightly.Gu Li lowered his head and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
After hearing what the man said just now, several men blocked their way. "You two girls, where are you going to go at night?"
Gu Li stopped in front of Qin Qi. "Even if we are from Xinyuefang, what do you think?" She remembered hearing Yue Ruxin say that even the girls in the workshop would do it out of their own will.With Yue Ruxin protecting her, no one can force the girls to do what they don't want to do.
The author has something to say: Thank you Sifan for the mine, I love you~~~
When changing the list every week, I don’t care about code words, ╮( ̄▽ ̄")╭
"Aunt Xin..." Gu Li blushed. "I don't have anything to do today, I'm here to see you. Also..." She took out a 1 tael silver note from her clothes and handed it to Yue Ruxin. "I know that Aunt Xin is not short of money, but I don't need it now, so let me put it here with Aunt Xin, and Aunt Xin saved it for me."
Yue Ruxin took the bank note, "Forget it. You will always need money in the future. The princess has followed you, so you have to prepare well for this betrothal gift."
"Aunt Xin!" Qin Qi quit this time. "People don't want dowry gifts!"
Uh... Gu Li once again lamented that Qin Qi's focus always seems to be crooked.
Yue Ruxin's charming eyes fell on Qin Qi, and her eyes were full of kindness.She doesn't plan to get married in this life, and when she gets old, she will find a countryside with beautiful mountains and rivers to spend the rest of her life.But watching Chuxue's daughter find a partner, even though she is also a girl, she is also happy for the lost sister.
"There is a big show tonight, do you want to watch it?" she asked.
Before Gu Li could speak, Qin Qi asked curiously, "What big show?"
Yue Ruxin led the two of them to the back of the stage.Many musical instruments have been placed here, even konghou, which is rarely seen on weekdays.
"A famous master came to Yunguo, and she has some friendship with me. She specially arranged a big show for the workshop, and today is the performance the day before. Don't you know?" The flower card at the entrance of Xinyuefang has long been put out At first, she thought that Gu Li and Qin Qi were here to watch a show.
"That's a coincidence." Gu Li asked Qin Qi, "Want to see it?"
"Of course I have to watch it!" Qin Qi clapped his hands excitedly.
Gu Li knew that Qin Qi liked to be lively, so he would not miss such a good show. "Go back and have dinner and come back."
Qin Qi was attracted by the musical instruments and refused to leave.
"Why, Aunt Xin can't afford you a dinner here?" Yue Ruxin smiled and called a girl over, "Yinge, take Princess Feng'an to the rehearsal room at the back to see the excitement."
The girl named Yinge gave a salute, and she didn't flinch when she saw Qin Qi, she said with a smile: "Master Feng'an, please follow me."
Qin Qi looked back at Gu Li, obviously Gu Li was not very interested in watching the excitement.Qin Qi said: "Sister Li, I'm going to watch the fun first. I'll come back to you later."
"Don't make trouble!" Gu Li couldn't help exhorting.
"Got it!" Qin Qi responded, happily following Yin Ge away.
Yue Ruxin looked at Qin Qi and said with emotion: "The little princess has a good temper, and she is so cute in front of you."
"She's fine." Gu Li's eyes followed Qin Qi's back.
Yue Ruxin already felt the changes in Gu Li during this time.Gu Li, who had just entered the capital, was polite but indifferent.But now Gu Li is more lively.
The two went back to Yue Ruxin's room and sat down, Yue Ruxin asked: "How is your mother's investigation going?"
"It was Wu Siran's poison. Although Gu Haozhi didn't intervene, he knew about it." Gu Li said coldly. "A few days ago when I went back home, Wu Siran poisoned me to buy me. I guess Gu Haozhi also knew about it. Aunt Xin, I really didn't expect such a cowardly man to exist in this world."
Yue Ruxin patted the table with her hand. "Sure enough, it was her who did it!" Recalling the deep love between sisters back then, bit by bit.When Yao Chuxue was abandoned by Gu Haozhi, all her thoughts were lost, and she was delighted when she found out that she was pregnant.At that time, the two agreed that no matter whether the child was a boy or a girl, the two sisters would raise the child.If one person is gone, the other person must keep his promise and stick to it to the end.
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Yue Ruxin's eyes.Seeing Gu Li was startled, he hurriedly persuaded: "Aunt Xin, it's been so many years, don't be too sad."
"In the past 17 years, I have always thought of Chu Xue. She is such a gentle woman, God is not fair! Why did she meet Gu Haozhi, who kills thousands of swords! Li'er, even if she was abandoned by Gu Haozhi back then, With me around, life can go on. She doesn't have any extravagant hopes, but why doesn't the Gu family let her go?" Yue Ruxin's emotions, which had been suppressed for a long time, were all vented at this moment.
Gu Li's eye sockets were also a little red. "Aunt Xin, these years have been hard for you. I will avenge my mother's revenge. I will not let Gu Haozhi and Wu Siran go."
Yue Ruxin cried for a while, and gradually stopped crying. "Li'er, have you ever thought about killing your own father, which is a capital offense under Ming Xi's law!"
Gu Li smiled, "At worst, I'll leave Mingxi, originally I was going back to Feiyejin."
Yue Ruxin nodded.He deeply felt that he had made the right bet when he took the risk of sending Gu Li to Feiyejin. "Anyway, be careful. If you need my help, just say it."
Gu Li took Yue Ruxin's hand and said, "Aunt Xin, after so many years, let go of what should be let go. My mother is under the Nine Springs, and I definitely hope that you can live happily."
Yue Ruxin nodded vigorously, and tears flowed out again. "I understand, I understand."
The two chatted together for a long time, until a little maid knocked on the door outside, saying that dinner was ready.Only then did Gu Li realize that they hadn't reported to the eldest princess' mansion yet.Yue Ruxin sent a servant to take a bead flower on Gu Li's head to the Princess's Mansion to say she would return tonight.
"How is the princess treating you?" Yue Ruxin asked after wiping away her tears while applying powder in front of the mirror.
"Very good." Gu Li smiled softly.This made Yue Ruxin understand that Gu Li was very happy in the princess' mansion.
"That's good." Yue Ruxin took Gu Li out to the rehearsal room.Before entering the door, I heard the sound of various musical instruments playing inside.
When the two entered the door, the girls inside saw Yue Ruxin and called out "Aunt Xin".Gu Li saw Qin Qi sitting next to a guzheng, listening to the command of the person in front, and began to play along.Seeing Gu Li coming in, Qin Qi didn't move, but winked mischievously at her.
This... isn't it just for fun?How did you get into the playing team?Gu Li looked at Yue Ruxin, and Yue Ruxin laughed. "The little princess is really a living treasure."
"Stop making trouble, Aunt Xin. Aren't you afraid that she will screw up your drama?" Gu Li couldn't imagine such a scene.
Yue Ruxin crossed her arms, "I'm not afraid."
"Talk out!" The two whispered, but the person in front of the room became unhappy and said something coldly.
Only then did Gu Li turn his attention to the person in front of him.It was a woman in her 30s.There is an obvious difference between the style of clothing and Ming Xi's style.Her hair was coiled on top of her head and combed carefully with pomade, not a single strand fell out.This is a very beautiful woman, and the makeup on her face is also meticulous.For some reason, Gu Li always felt that she had seen this person before.After thinking about it carefully, Gu Li blurted out, "The people in Yunguo Palace?"
The woman finally stopped her hand, and was also looking at Gu Li carefully. "How did the girl know that I came from the Yunguo Palace?"
Gu Li frowned, "I seem to have seen Senior somewhere before." But she really couldn't remember.But Yunguo... Her eyes lit up. "Senior, have you been to Feiyejin?"
The woman was startled when she heard the words, and after thinking for a moment, her eyebrows finally relaxed, "So it's you. I remember your name is Gu Li, right?"
Gu Li nodded. "Senior came to see Senior Sister Jingsu back then." Now I remembered everything.
That year, she was only seven years old, but Jiang Fengmin had already snatched her from Wen Xiange's sect to become his apprentice.Then, she saw her fellow senior sister, Princess Yunjing Feng Jingsu of Yunguo.At that time, Feng Jingsu had been studying under Jiang Fengmin's sect for a year. Seeing this little junior sister snatched back by her master, Feng Jingsu showed great kindness.Gu Li is indifferent, and he will not refuse or rely on his senior sister's concern.In this way, at the Dragon Boat Festival in the coming year, Yunguo sent someone to visit Feng Jingsu, and it was this woman.She can't remember the woman's name.All I know is that she is Wen Xiange's good friend, she is a music teacher in Yunguo Palace, and she is a high-ranking female official.
It is a joy to meet an old friend.But now is not the time to reminisce.The woman asked Yue Ruxin and Gu Li to sit aside, and she continued to direct the girls to play music.
"What's the name of this senior?" Gu Li asked in a low voice.
"Xi Zhiyao." Yue Ruxin's voice was also very low.
Even Gu Li, who doesn't care much about other things, has heard of Xi Zhiyao's name.Back then, she was as famous as Wen Xiange, both of whom were well-known women in the mainland.Wen Xiange is good at composing music, Xi Zhiyao is good at playing.The two of them once performed a song "The Song of Emerald Cold Smoke" together at the Tian Music Workshop in Xingguo, which attracted thousands of people.Later, Wen Xiange entered Feiyejin Academy, and Xi Zhiyao was enshrined in the court of Yunguo.
"I actually forgot such a famous person." Gu Li was speechless about his memory.
"It's not that you can't remember, it's that you don't care at all." Yue Ruxin teased.
The sound of silk and bamboo sounded in the room, and various musical instruments matched together, unexpectedly harmonious.Surprisingly, Qin Qi didn't make any discordant sounds when he played the zither.
Yue Ruxin nudged Gu Li with her elbow and pouted towards Qin Qin. "The princess is a talent." She is a guzheng player, and she can tell how good Qin Qi's skills are.Although he couldn't compare with her, at least among this group of girls, Qin Qi's skills did not lag behind.
"Aunt Xin just said that she is a living treasure." Gu Li smiled.
The rehearsal is finally over.The girls in the room all went back to their rooms to finish their meal, and then dressed up, making final preparations for tonight's big show.
Xi Zhiyao came over and looked at Gu Li and said, "Xiange mentioned you before, your skills should be very high." She deliberately emphasized the word "should".
Gu Li said with a smile: "In front of Senior Xi, this junior dare not make mistakes."
Xi Zhiyao didn't mean to be polite, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Play a song for me."
Gu Li never had stage fright, even when facing such a famous senior, he was still in a peaceful state of mind.She picked up a pipa, and lightly squeezed her fingers together, and the pearly sound of the pipa flowed out.
Qin Qi didn't move, just sat on the seat and tilted his head to watch Gu Li play.No matter how familiar she is, she will still be dazzled by Gu Li's various beauties.
What Gu Li played was just ordinary tunes, which Qin Qi knew well.But the more common the piece is, the more difficult it is for everyone to know it.Gu Li's skills have passed the stage of deliberately pursuing difficulty and showing off his skills, and have entered the realm of returning to basics.
After playing a song, Xi Zhiyao nodded. "Sure enough, he is talented. No wonder Xian Ge was robbed by his apprentice for so long."
Qin Qi, who was at the side, said, "Senior! Can you let sister Li participate in the performance tonight?" Her voice was clear and crisp, and her pretty appearance was extremely pleasing.
Xi Zhiyao shook her head without thinking. "Her skills are too high. The most important thing in an ensemble is balance. Once she joins in, you can't keep up with her skills, and you will highlight her pipa sound and magnify your shortcomings infinitely."
"That's it." Qin Qi stuck out his tongue.Sure enough, sister Li is amazing!
"Thank you for your compliment, senior." Gu Li bowed.Pull Qin Qi back to the side.Yue Ruxin finally had a chance to speak, "Master Xi, dinner is ready."
Xi Zhiyao seemed to be feeling hungry at this moment, nodded and glanced at Gu Li and Qin Qi, and followed Yue Ruxin out.
Qin Qi stretched his neck to watch, and Gu Li picked him up and put him on the chair and asked, "What's the matter with you? You also want to participate in the evening performance?"
Qin Qi nodded sharply. "Senior said I can do it!"
"You are the princess." Gu Li had to remind.Although she doesn't feel that Lefang women are inferior, most people in the world don't see it that way.Qin Qi's status is precious, so it's not good to spread it out.
"What's the matter? Sister Li also played on stage." Qin Qi hugged Gu Li's waist and put his face on her body, "Sister Li doesn't mind, why should I?"
Gu Li touched Qin Qi's cheek, feeling the soft skin on his fingertips. "Then you have to work hard and don't lose face."
"Of course!" Qin Qi was delighted, last time she watched Gu Li play in Xinyuefang, this time the roles were changed, Gu Li wanted to watch her play.
While the two were talking, Yin Ge, who had led Qin Qi the way before, came in and invited them to dinner.After dinner, Qin Qi immediately went back to the rehearsal room to practice the Guzheng, and it turned out to be very hard.
After a while, other girls also came.Obviously, the stage is about to come, and everyone is afraid to relax.Standing at the back of the room, Gu Li looked at the girls who came in one after another for the final rehearsal, and found that there was Yinge inside.
"She's a singer." Yue Ruxin said beside Gu Li.
"Still singing?" Gu Li was surprised.
Yue Ruxin smiled smugly, "That's why it can be called a big show."
Yin Ge stood in front, and the others played a piece of "I'm Safe".After that, the music stopped for a while, and when it resumed, it was a song that Gu Li had never heard before.She looked at Yue Ruxin suspiciously, hoping to get an answer, Yue Ruxin pointed to Yinge in front of her, Gu Li followed her finger and looked over, Yinge spoke at this moment.
"At the beginning of the evening makeup, the skin is snowing, and the concubines of the Spring Palace are lined up. The shengxiao blows off the water and the clouds open, and the neon clothes sing all over. Who is more fragrant in the wind, drunk and patting the rails. When you return, you will put candles and red flowers. , wait for the horseshoe to clear the night moon."
It is "Jade House Spring" written by the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty.Yin Ge looked plain and ordinary, but her singing voice was mellow and affectionate.Even a cold-hearted person like Gu Li was a little moved when he heard this.
"Girl Yinge's singing voice is so beautiful, Aunt Xin is used to knowing people." Gu Li said.
"She is a girl I picked up by the side of the road. Who would have thought that it was a piece of jade." Yue Ruxin took in this helpless little girl just because of a moment of benevolence.Unexpectedly, after several years of teaching, Yin Ge's voice is getting better and better.
At night, Xinyue Square is brightly lit.The already lively place has attracted more guests because of tonight's big show.During the period, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries were present, and the hall was full of seats, even the private rooms were full of people.Gu Li was standing on the edge of the stage, and he could see the situation in front and backstage.
Yue Ruxin doesn't have time to accompany her right now. As the person in charge, she is too busy to go around at the moment.
After a few stage performances, the bright lights in the hall were blown out.Only the stage is still as bright as day.The veil that had been drawn was slowly pulled away, and inside were a group of girls who had already sat down.Most of the women in Lefang rely on their skills to make a living, and they don't have high requirements for appearance.However, after all, it is probably in the [-]s and [-]s. Even if the appearance is not amazing, it is better than youth.With so many girls sitting on the stage, the guests present gasped in surprise without moving their instruments.
Xi Zhiyao in the shadow beside him made a gesture, and the guzheng played first, but it was not Qin Qi.Apparently Qin Qi only joined temporarily, and it wasn't originally planned.Afterwards, various musical instruments were played one by one, and it was "One World Peace".
At the end of the song, there was a wave of applause.
The well-dressed Yin Ge slowly came out from behind, and the prelude to "Jade House Spring" started, and with Yin Ge's melodious singing, all the guests present showed obsessive expressions.
Gu Li's gaze was on Qin Qi most of the time.The little rabbit always has a smile on his face.She really enjoyed the performance.Her skills were similar to those of the girls present, which gave her confidence.Those little hands rubbed and pressed the strings on the guzheng, especially the fingering skills were used very well.
Silver sang and then retreated.Then came two famous songs.Yinge came to the stage again and sang Li Bai's "Autumn Wind Ci": "The autumn wind is clear, the autumn moon is bright, the fallen leaves gather and disperse, and the jackdaws roost and startle again. When we will meet each other, we will be embarrassed at this night; enter my lovesickness door , I know that lovesickness is bitter, long-term lovesickness is long-term lovesickness, short-term lovesickness is endless, I knew it was so stumbling, why didn't I know each other at the beginning." The voice was mournful, like weeping and complaining.
Gu Li doesn't like this kind of music very much.This is also the reason why she can't play "Zhaojun's Out of the Fortress" well, but she can play "House of Flying Daggers" extremely well, because of her personality.However, Xinyuefang opened its doors to do business, and the music is the most suitable music.
After that, there were three more songs, and a big drama ended, winning the house.Qin Qi behaved well when he followed the crowd down the stage, but when he saw Gu Li, he threw himself into her arms and smiled, "Sister Li, is Qi Qi doing well?"
"Of course." Gu Li saw that people passing by were looking at the two of them, and hurriedly carried the little rabbit back to the backyard. "What's the matter?" Gu Li asked Qin Qi frowned when he found her holding Qin Qi's hand.
"It's nothing, it's just that my fingers hurt a little." Qin Qi raised his left hand to show Gu Li.She is a pampered princess who has not touched the guzheng for a long time.I kept pressing the strings with my left hand tonight, and my delicate fingertips were already red and swollen from the strings.
Gu Li couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw it.Holding her hand and blowing gently, "Why are you bothering?"
Qin Qi continued to raise his fingers and said, "It won't hurt to kiss my sister."
"Nonsense!" After talking, Gu Li still put her left hand to his mouth and kissed each finger delicately.
Qin Qi's face was red, his ears were red, and his big eyes were blinking shyly but happily.
Yue Ruxin, who was passing by, opened the door and saw this scene, and hastily covered her eyes with her hands. "Ouch! I didn't see anything. Why don't you young couple go home?" She didn't see anything, but her voice was loud, attracting many onlookers.
Gu Li and Qin Qi hurriedly let go, Qin Qi's face turned even redder.No matter how bold she was in front of Gu Li, it was because there was no one else.In front of outsiders, she is still very shy.
At the critical moment, Gu Li was more aggressive, stood up and stood in front of the door, smiling at everyone.The temperature that dropped in that instant froze the onlookers away. "Aunt Xin, did you do this on purpose?" Gu Li asked.
"Man, you will get thicker after going through it a few more times." Yue Ruxin was in a great mood, she blinked after speaking, hummed a little tune and left.
"Are you gone?" Qin Qi's small head poked out from behind Gu Li, seeing that everyone had left, she covered her mouth and giggled.
"Smile when you get into trouble!" Gu Li pretended to be vicious, but was amused by Qin Qi's adorable expression of tilting his head to look at him. "Let's go, it's time to go back home."
"Okay." Qin Qi obediently took Gu Li's hand and walked out.
The guests in front were still there at the moment, Yue Ruxin was afraid that the two of them would cause some trouble if they went out, so she arranged for them to go through the back door.Coming out of the back door of Xinyuefang is a narrow alley, which is very quiet at this time.
The two walked hand in hand in the dark alley, Gu Li asked, "Are you afraid?"
Qin Qi shook his head. "I'm not afraid. Sister Li protects me." She felt so proud.
The alley was not long, and the two had already walked back to the street where Xinyuefang was located.At this time, there were people going in and out of Xinyuefang from time to time. Seeing these two girls, especially Gu Li, several people stopped in their tracks.
Gu Li just glanced at them lightly, then pulled Qin Qi to continue walking outside.But one person said: "Are you two girls from Xinyuefang?"
"No." Gu Li spat out two words without stopping.
"She's talking nonsense!" A man who just came out of Xinyue Workshop said: "They are the girls in the workshop!" The man pointed at Qin Qi and continued: "She was still playing the tune just now."
Qin Qi held Gu Li's hand and clenched it tightly.Gu Li lowered his head and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
After hearing what the man said just now, several men blocked their way. "You two girls, where are you going to go at night?"
Gu Li stopped in front of Qin Qi. "Even if we are from Xinyuefang, what do you think?" She remembered hearing Yue Ruxin say that even the girls in the workshop would do it out of their own will.With Yue Ruxin protecting her, no one can force the girls to do what they don't want to do.
