late night song

Chapter 220 Jingchuan Palace
Shan Mingxi got rid of Ling Ziyu's entanglement after leaving Ziyan Palace, and wandered alone on Taihua Road where the curfew was already in place.She still hadn't completely let go of Ling Buhuo, and now that she was engaged to that bastard in a confused way, it was really hard to calm down.

But she knew that it was hard to disobey the emperor's order. Judging from her father's reaction at that time, she might have known about the marriage. She lost her mother when she was young and had no brothers or sisters. It was hard for her father to educate her while leading troops to fight for so many years. If she hadn't discovered that Ling Buhuo would still be there. Living, her only wish in this life is to accompany her father in peace for a hundred years.

But in the current situation, she really didn't know what to do.

If we go to fight for it, there seems to be some room for selling his father's military exploits and the lintel of the Shan family, but what should the old King Ling do if he is dissatisfied?Since ancient times, the emperor's heart has been as deep as the sea. His father is already old, how can she bear to let him survive.

She could wrong herself, but her heart would feel numb for the rest of her life, but she still refused to accept it.But if he doesn't wrong himself and Ling Ziyu ascends the throne in the future, how will the Shan family deal with themselves in the future?
Full of exhaustion and loneliness, Shan Mingxi's eyes became wet without realizing it.

Suddenly, a familiar melody floated into her ears on the wind. She unconsciously turned to the paths on both sides of Tai Wah Road, walked around the winding alleys, and finally stopped in front of a small but exquisite courtyard. The back door The door is ajar, and through the cascading bonsai in the garden, the white silhouette of a month comes into view.

After Shan Mingxi listened to the song quietly, the piano player noticed that someone had broken into his secret realm, reached out and took out the silk hat, put it on, and slowly stood up.

"Sorry, it's so late and so abrupt." She regretted her discourtesy.

"It doesn't matter, it's not the first time that the girl has been abrupt." The man slowly approached her, his voice was very nice.

"you know me?"

"If the time in Qiongzhou City counts, we probably know each other."

"You are the piano emperor."

Shan Mingxi was at a loss for words. At the bonfire celebration in Qiongzhou City, after Emperor Qin played his song, she did follow him for a long time out of curiosity, but eventually lost him in the city. Could it be that he had noticed it that day and even recognized him? Out of myself.

"You're polite." He nodded slightly under his hat, sensing that she was not in a good state, and asked, "Is the girl worried today?"

"What about today, sir?" Shan Mingxi asked without answering, "Although I'm not good at music, I can still hear the 'I don't know what's lingering in my arms' in this song."

"Girl, you are too modest. Although I am good at playing the piano, I am still just a mortal. Otherwise, how could everything go well and be auspicious words that everyone likes to hear."

"I think today, we are the same." Shan Mingxi is even more lonely, but she seems to be more able to open her heart to strangers.

The Qin Emperor did not speak, turned around, walked to the guqin, and played another song. This time the sound of the qin was still distant, but it was not as deep and sad as before, but like a silence buried in the ice and snow, and an indifference waiting for new life.

"Situation arises from the heart, things turn with the heart, wherever the heart goes, so is the situation."

"Will it?" she replied dejectedly.

"Maybe." Emperor Qin was indifferent.

"There's really a lot of trouble tonight, so I'll say goodbye." After a long time, Shan Mingxi got up and said hello and left.

Emperor Qin nodded, showing no intention of staying.

But she took two steps and then turned back. After much hesitation, she finally spoke: "Have you been living in Yunjing lately, sir?"

"The date has not yet been decided. If you don't want to give up, girl, you can come to Yuyuan to sit for a while at any time. Just don't tell others."

Shan Mingxi bowed her hands and said, "Thank you sir, my name is Mingxi."

"Mingxi."

After she had left for a long time, the Qin Emperor played a few strings and murmured out her voice.

Gu Yuchu slept well. When he woke up in the morning, he stretched unconsciously. He accidentally reached under the pillow and touched something cool and oily. When he pulled it out, he found it was a pair of purple jade clasp earrings. They were small and delicate. Very beautiful.

She held it and looked at it for a long time, then put it back down without thinking too much.

When she got up, she realized that Ling Buhuo was no longer in the dormitory. So after washing herself and having breakfast, she practiced kung fu in the open space in front of the hall for a while until two familiar figures appeared.

"Streamer!"

She followed the sound and saw Yan Feng running towards him with a smile on his face, followed by Yu Bai calmly with a spring breeze on his face.

"Why are you here?" Gu Yuchu was surprised and happy.

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha" Yan Feng laughed heartily, feeling very proud, and Yu Bai even laughed without saying a word.

"This is Ziyan Palace. The way you are dressed doesn't look like ladies or officials. Could it be two princesses?" Gu Yuchu touched his chin and looked at their outfits carefully. The texture of the silk and the style of the dresses were absolutely extraordinary. .

"Half of it is right." Yanfeng still kept his guess.

"Come on, let me tell you. She is the princess, and I am the daughter of King Fucheng, her cousin." Yu Bai was still simple and direct.

"Let me just say, Juan Niang is wary of Ling Ziyu, but you two are different. And that girl Sang'er is very domineering, but she doesn't dare to make trouble with you."

"You're observing carefully enough!" Yanfeng put his arm around her shoulders, not looking like a princess at all.

"Of course, since I have hidden something from you, let's just call it even." Gu Yuchu said, holding her waist.

"It's an advantage for you." Yubai also held his arms, and the three of them laughed together.

"Let's go and sit in my palace. There is probably nothing in your palace." Yan Feng took a look at the dull palace and suggested.

So, the three of them moved to Ninglu Pavilion. Although Yan Feng was usually very turbulent and talked about love and hatred all day long, the palace was still very uniquely decorated.

The lady put a table of pastries and snacks, as well as several bottles of peach blossom wine.

"So, you already know Xiao Ling's true identity?" Gu Yuchu asked.

"Xiao Ling?" Yu Bai and Yan Feng shouted at the same time, with shocked expressions on their faces. Only then did Gu Yuchu realize that he had let the news slip, and took a flattering sip of wine.

"Oh, I understand!" Yan Feng slammed the table and stood up suddenly, "No wonder I said he looks so much like my father. It turns out he is my eldest brother! This man is too scheming and too deep!"

"I felt something was wrong the first time he came to Suo Xing Palace. He was so confident and didn't shy away from talking to Prince Ling." Yu Bai also suddenly realized. "I thought you knew this a long time ago, otherwise why would you come to Zhongyang Palace to find me today." Gu Yuchu was also a little surprised.

"We just thought you were connected with King Jingchuan on the battlefield, but we didn't connect him with Xiao Ling at all." Yu Bai spread his hands, feeling helpless.

"Do you think Juan Niang knows?" Yan Feng said thoughtfully, dragging his chin.

"I think she should know." Before Gu Yuchu could speak, Yu Bai said it.

"This bastard is so tight-lipped." Yan Feng muttered.

"Not all messengers of embroidered clothes are so virtuous." Yu Bai looked at it openly, "By the way, where did she go, a fairy?"

"I just met her not long ago." Gu Yuchu came closer and said, as if he had some secret, "She is in love with Lao Meng next door!"

"Forgetting the truth!" Yan Feng scolded angrily, then curled his lips and said, "He actually succeeded!"

"She said she resigned from office and ran a pharmacy with Meng Gu. They were very affectionate."

"Impossible! The embroidered messengers are all dead." Yubai was very sure, which made Gu Yuchu's heart skip a beat, but Xunying followed the same rules, and didn't she herself break away from it?

"Forget it, tell me what have you been through in the past few years? Why did you hook up with my lost brother? It seems that we will have to change our calling you sister-in-law in the future." Yan Feng joked. , Yu Bai also nodded excitedly.

"Don't don't."

Gu Yuchu looked embarrassed and briefly talked about his experiences in the past few years. However, the two of them couldn't bear it. They asked for details and were asked many details one after another. Even after dark, they were willing to let her go.

However, it would be good to take this opportunity to no longer be in the same room with Ling Buhuo.

Yanfeng had already sent the ladies to Zhongyang Palace to say hello and invited Gu Yuchu to stay in his palace for a few days.But within three days, Ling Buhuo couldn't bear it anymore and came to Ninglu Pavilion in person to take the people away.

Seven days later, it was the grand occasion of the opening of Prince Jingchuan's palace. The ministers understood how much Old Prince Ling valued him, and they all came to congratulate him regardless of whether he was sincere or not.

Ling Buhuo only accepted the congratulatory gifts and did not hold a banquet. After the ministers gave the gifts, they could not talk much or get familiar with each other, so they went back home in despair. However, just looking at the lintel decoration of the Jingchuan Palace and the magnificence of the front hall, At a glance, one could see the important position this son held in Old King Ling's heart, and he felt that it was not in vain.

Until noon, there was still an endless stream of people giving gifts. Ling Ziyu led Ling Zisu and several younger sisters who had not left the palace to celebrate together. They visited the palace inside and outside.

The Jingchuan Prince's Mansion has a total of 98 rooms, a dozen gardens of different sizes and an inner lake. In the entire Yunjing City, except for the Prince's Mansion, no other mansion has such specifications.

"Every plant, tree, brick and tile here is built according to my prince's preferences." Ling Ziyu introduced proudly, as if he was in his own mansion.

"Come on, Brother Prince, your Prince's Mansion is not enough for you to worry about, but you actually take care of Prince Jingchuan's Mansion." Yan Feng said with squinting eyes, causing Yu Bai to hold back laughter.

"What do you know? Brother Buhuo has just arrived here and is not familiar with everything. The prince and brother care deeply about brotherhood, so it is only natural to carry out the ceremony on his behalf." A woman in coquettish and well-dressed clothes approached Ling Ziyu with squinting eyes and was very protective. .

"New here? They are twins. When you were still nursing, the eldest brother lived in Zhongyang Palace. Do you think he is new here?! Is his brain spoiled by those rouge gouache?!" Yan Fengyi With disdain and disgust on his face, he opened his mouth regardless of Yu Bai's reminder.

"You..." The girl with red and phoenix eyes turned livid with anger and was speechless.

"So lively!"

Ling Buhuo came from not far away, and Gu Yuchu followed behind and watched the excitement with interest.

Judging from the dress and tone of that gorgeous girl, there is no doubt that the one who can compete with Yan Feng must also be a princess.In the past, in Dongqi, the princess was very reserved and rarely took a step out of the palace. Even when attending palace banquets, she was as quiet as a transparent person.Now it seems that the customs and customs in these different places are indeed different.

Several people in the garden looked around. Those who had already seen Ling Buhuo naturally didn't think anything, but the other two men and two women were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.

Ling Buhuo glanced at the beautiful woman sideways, making her face turn pale with fright.

"With your taste, you still have the nerve to show it off here. How do you think this house has been transformed by you?" He didn't give the prince any face, was he to blame?

"Haha, how about we switch, the Prince's Palace will be for you, and the Jingchuan Prince's Palace will be for me." Ling Ziyu was half-joking, but others were so shocked that they broke out in a cold sweat. This change of palace is a small matter, but Yi Chu behind him is. A stormy event!

Ling Buhuo smiled and didn't answer, but just looked around leisurely.

"You three won't talk anymore." He looked at Yan Feng, Yu Bai and the little Ling Zisu, and nodded.Yu Bai and His Highness had nothing to do with each other, but Yan Feng was still a little scared.

Although Ling Ziyu had been established as the prince a long time ago, he loved to play and was always friendly and close to his brothers and sisters, so Yanfeng was never afraid of him, but Ling Buhuo was different.

Firstly, she was not familiar with him, and secondly, his calm and serious look was very much like that of the old King Ling. He always carried an overwhelming momentum wherever he went, which made her unconsciously have the urge to call him "Father".

"You are Ji Huan, the eldest son of Aunt Helan, and you are the younger sister Ji He." Ling Buhuo said the names of the two strangers in front of him without any hesitation.

"Hello, King Jingchuan." The brother and sister saluted and said hello. The older brother, Ji Heng, was dignified and well-behaved.And this younger sister Ji He looks like she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, with big round black eyes and is very cute.

"My mother said that there must be a lot of people celebrating today, so she asked me to bring my sister over to see her first, and then come over to congratulate her in person in a few days." Ji Huan was very respectful and conveyed her mother's instructions.

"Aunt Helan is an elder, so naturally it's me who goes to visit." Ling Buhuo was very polite to others.

"Brother, you and the prince really look exactly the same." Ji He grabbed the sleeves of Ling Buhuo and Ling Ziyu, looking up at his little face with stars in his eyes.

Ling Ziyu stretched out his hand and scratched her nose. Ling Buhuo was also full of tenderness towards this innocent little sister.

After a while, Ling Buhuo remembered the coquettish and talkative sister, turned around and suppressed his smile: "If I guess correctly, you are Yan Yang from Shen Cizhai."

"Ah."

This time she lost the air she had just now, she just lowered her head and no longer dared to show her head. Yan Feng would have been very happy if he saw this deflated expression. However, at this time, she, Yu Bai, and Gu Yuchu were accompanying Ling Zi. Su squatted aside digging for earthworms in the garden and had no time to pay attention to them.

"Don't be so fierce, Yan Yang was almost scared out of his wits." Ling Ziyu patted his shoulder with one hand. Ling Buhuo was too lazy to pay attention to him and squinted at the people who were digging in a circle not far away. The four of them sighed silently unconsciously.

After that, a sumptuous banquet was prepared in the new kitchen. After the brothers and sisters had a lively meal and drink, the Jingchuan Prince's Mansion calmed down.
