Chapter 96: Fighting music

When Li Rong heard this, she turned her head and saw the sedan chair of Concubine Rou and Hua Le.
The two of them were carried on the sedan chair, wearing fox fur skin and holding the heater in their hands. They looked graceful and luxurious, which shows that they are very fond of them.
Li Rong couldn't help laughing when she saw them two.
"It turned out to be Empress Roucon and Sister Huale."
Li Rong said, looking at them up and down, Hua Le did not salute to her, so she did not salute to Concubine Roux. The three parties showed an unruly tacit understanding. After a while, Concubine Roux laughed and raised a little bit of Hua. Le said: "Who in the palace teaches you the rules if you see your sister before you get off the sedan chair?"
"No need," Li Rong raised her hand to interrupt Hua Le's move to get off the sedan chair, and said directly, "Since your Royal Highness Hua Le doesn't have my sister in his heart, you don't have to do these pompous courtesies. There are other things, right? ."
With that, Li Rong Xuxu waved his hand and led Pei Wenxuan to the hall.
As soon as the two of them left, Hua Le turned to look at Concubine Roux, and said angrily: "Mother concubine, look at her, what kind of arrogance looks like! You are a noble concubine anyway, she won't salute when she meets you..."
"Don't you also salute her?"
Rou Fei laughed, but she didn't care very much, she just said: "Qioner, there is a price for what people say and do."
As she said, Concubine Rou raised her hand to pat Hua Le's hand, and said gently, "Remember."
Pei Wenxuan followed Li Rong to leave. He thought Li Rong should be angry with Hua Le, and couldn't help but smile: "What does your Highness do with their general knowledge?"
"Different if they see them, they won't bother me?" Li Rong chuckled, "The result is the same anyway, it's better to be verbal and refreshing."
"His Royal Highness noticed the girl standing next to them?"
Pei Wenxuan suddenly mentioned someone else, and Li Rong thought about it for a moment before remembering that person's face.
That life was pure and dignified, but she was also a beauty, but Roufei was too beautiful, she looked a little pale when she stood on the side, and she needed people to think carefully to remember that appearance.
Li Rong was a little surprised when Pei Wenxuan mentioned her. She was looking back to ask, so she heard Pei Wenxuan say: "It's Xiao Wei."
That is the niece Roufei always wanted Li Ming to marry Li Chuan.
At the last palace banquet, Concubine Roux tried hard to make Xiao Wei stand out in the fragrance selection competition, so as to give Li Ming a head-giving marriage, but was disrupted by Li Rong. Now nearly half a year has passed, and she is still staying in Huajing. .
Thinking of this, Li Rong couldn't help but frown, and turned to look at Pei Wenxuan: "You just said that what is the way to relieve Chuan'er?"
"A monk recently came to Huguo Temple. It is said that he knows the past and the present and predicts the future.
When Pei Wenxuan mentioned this, Li Rong understood. She hesitated for a moment. Seeing that she was silent, Pei Wenxuan couldn't help but say, "Have you any concerns?"
"This monk is a liar."
Li Rong directly exposed, and Pei Wenxuan didn't care: "Is there an alchemist who is a liar in this world? It is a liar that makes use of it. In any case, he was indeed famous in the last life and has many followers."
"But he was eventually driven out of Huajing."
Li Rong frowned, and Pei Wenxuan reminded her: "That was what you did. In this life, if you don't tear his skin with your hands, he is a master. Let him tell the prophecy that your Highness will not get married within five years. The people incited this matter and let it spread. Now the Shangguan family is almost under the control of His Royal Highness. They can't get the crown prince, so they won't let other people out. The internal fighting of the various factions in the DPRK can be their prophecy. As an excuse for this, within five years," Pei Wenxuan raised a hand, "His Royal Highness has no worries about marriage."
"This is still risky." Li Rong knocked her hand with a fan and slowly said, "I will think about it again."
The two of them were talking and stepped into the hall. Many courtiers had already arrived in the hall. They were chatting with others. After Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan entered the hall, they just took their seats, and Li Ming led the people. .
Behind Li Ming led the concubine of the harem, Shangguan Yue was side by side with Li Ming, and Concubine Rou led the others behind him. As soon as Li Ming came in, everyone knelt down. After Li Ming asked everyone to get up, he said a few auspicious words according to his usual habit, and then announced the opening of the table.
The New Year’s palace banquet is a must-have item every year. Sitting in front of the main hall are high-ranking officials and nobles. Everyone is acquaintance, and they are not formal. After a while, the scene will be lively, led by the old minister, familiar Officials began to move around each other, which was considered a social occasion.
Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong sat aside, and they were not seen in the court now, especially Li Rong, so no one came to talk to her, so Pei Wenxuan accompanied her and chatted with her on melon seeds.
The two observed the other people in the palace banquet together. The old men were distinguished by official positions, and they talked and chatted in their own circles. Young people are mostly distinguished by their origins, each in their own circles.
The poor family like the Pei family now has real power in the DPRK, but they don’t have a name in the aristocratic family tree. They belong to the upstarts in the DPRK. Even in the circle of the Han people, it seemed calm.
Men are in the hall, and almost all women are in the apse. Except for the queen and noble concubines, there is only Li Rong in the hall, which is very abrupt.
After the two stayed together for a while, they saw someone trot over from the back hall and echoed something in Li Ming's ear.
Li Ming listened for a moment, then smiled and scolded: "Little girls just love the limelight."
Having said that, Li Ming still ordered Fulai: "Let the dancer go down, and bring Hua Le over."
Li Rong was not far from Li Ming, and when she heard Li Ming's instructions, she couldn't help but glance over.
After a while, she watched Hua Le holding a jade flute, stepping up from the apse, facing Li Mingying and respectfully saying: "Father."
Compared with Li Rong, Hua Le is used to be much more docile. She is gentle and squeamish, which is what Li Ming's daughter should have in his family.
As soon as she came, the hall slowly quieted down, and then Li Ming laughed and said: "I heard that you have prepared a tune, and you want to perform with King Su to celebrate the new year?"
"Yes," Hua Le laughed while holding the flute. "Brother Cheng's idea. He said that at the beginning of the new year, he wanted to win the favor of his father, and wanted to offer a sword dance to his father to celebrate the war in the Northwest last year. It goes well. Secondly, I will show the masculine spirit of Daxia like the world."
"He is only eleven years old," Li Ming said, but he was very happy on the face, "Is he going to be a man?"
"Father," said Su Wang Li Cheng, who was sitting next to Concubine Rou, proudly, "The swordsmanship of my sons rose sharply last year. The master said that my sons are still young, but he still doesn't lose to any adult man?"
"Oh?" Li Ming curiously asked, "Then can you beat your prince brother?"
If it’s an ordinary person, Li Ming’s question is nothing, but at Heaven’s Family, when Li Ming asks, everyone’s complexion doesn’t look so good. Li Rong smiled and looked at Li Cheng, just waiting to see. How did Li Cheng answer, and Li Chuan looked calm, as if he hadn't heard anything, and took a steady posture.
"It is naturally possible," Li Cheng replied immediately, solemnly, "Prince elder brother is good at reading, I am different from prince elder brother."
"Have you heard?" Li Ming laughed and turned to look at Li Chuan, "You are a big brother. If you don't work hard, your brother won't look down on you anymore."
When Li Chuan heard this, he smiled and respectfully said: "My father is right, Cheng Er will be a strong general in the future, guarding the frontiers of my great summer, and promoting our country's prestige."
Although Li Chuan was naive in front of Li Rong, he opened his eyes in front of the prince after all. Such an occasion was not unfamiliar. He knew very well how to resolve Li Ming's embarrassment.
It's just that he still has a bit of youthful temperament after all, and when he replied, he couldn't help but stab Li Ming, so he told Li Ming directly that he was so stupid that he could not become an emperor, so don't waste your thoughts.
Li Ming heard the Ji Feng in Li Chuan's words, his face sank immediately, and Concubine Roux saw it and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't just talk, your child has prepared gifts for so long, so it's time to take a look. "
"Right, right, right." Li Ming got on the stage, turned around, ignored Li Chuan, smiled, "Everyone, Aiqing, Princess Huale and King Su celebrate the New Year and have fun with all the monarchs. They specially prepared a grand celebration. Dance. Go," Li Ming looked at Hua Le, "Little Lark."
Hua Le saluted Li Ming, and walked to the side of King Su and took the stage with King Su.
Li Cheng stepped onto the stage, unbuttoned his coat, and revealed his strong outfit. This strong outfit is the clothes of a Northwest soldier practicing martial arts, meaning that he is a Northwest soldier at the moment.
Then he went to fetch the sword and pulled a sword flower on the stage. Li Ming immediately clapped and said loudly: "Okay!"
Li Rong smiled and knocked on the fan. It was interesting to see everyone. Everyone was attracted to the stage. I have to say that Li Cheng is very talented in this way. I don’t blame Li. Ming happy.
Pei Wenxuan leaned over to fill Li Rong with wine, and whispered: "Your Highness is not happy?"
"What's the dissatisfaction?" Li Rong turned his head and chuckled lightly, and said in a voice that only two of them could hear, "This is for money in the street, so I don't need to give it now. Why don't you look at it?"
Pei Wenxuan knew that Li Rong's mouth couldn't be forgiving. He smiled and didn't say a word. After Li Cheng pulled the sword flower, he received a big applause. He straightened his chest and looked very proud.
Hua Le stood on the side of the stage and said with Li Ming: "Father, today I play this song, it is'Ping Chuan Into the Battle', this song has been lost for a hundred years, and the sons and ministers looked up the ancient books, but only half of it was broken. It happened by chance that Su Shilang played this song for his brother, so he recorded the second half of the volume. Today I presented this song for my father and I hope my father will like it."
It was this kind of modesty that secretly showed off her amazing talents, and Li Rong felt she was tired.
She turned her head and whispered with Pei Wenxuan, "Why haven't they started yet?"
"Be patient, I guess there are still important things that I haven't said." Pei Wenxuan patted her hand. As soon as his voice fell, he listened to Chinese music. "But the child minister only has a flute. Thin, if Su Shilang doesn't dislike it," Hua Le turned to look at Su Rongqing, who was sitting in the table with a calm expression, "Would you like to accompany me and present this song for my father?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Su Rongqing, and Pei Wenxuan looked at Li Rong subconsciously.
Li Rong noticed that Pei Wenxuan was looking at him, and turned his eyes back strangely. The two quietly looked at each other when everyone was staring at Su Rongqing.
Su Rongqing didn't say a word, Hua Le held up a smile: "Shi Lang Su?"
Hua Le's call awakened Li Rong's mind. She understood Hua Le's purpose tonight. The drunkard didn't mean to drink, but Su Rongqing!
With an identity like Hua Le, even a princess, it is difficult to marry a high school. I didn't want Roufei and Hua Le to know that Hua Le would not be able to get married under normal circumstances, so they chose an abnormal path.
But now that Li Ming is not repelled by Li Ming, and from a noble family, the best unmarried person is Su Rongqing, who knows that he wants to inherit the Su family.
Li Rong was a little surprised at Hua Le's appetite for a while. If he didn't take the usual path, he would really go straight to the sky.
It's just that she couldn't put Hua Le to marry such a high school, so before Su Rongqing could answer, Li Rong immediately stood up and said directly: "Why bother Su Shilang, younger sister."
When Li Rong spoke, everyone looked over, Pei Wenxuan stared at her with a cold expression.
Li Rong did not dare to watch Pei Wenxuan, she walked directly from behind the small table on stage, without giving Hua Le any chance to refute the substitution, and said with a smile: "Actually, "Pingchuan Into the Battle" is not completely lost, but many famous teachers are unwilling. To teach ordinary disciples, it just so happened that I also studied with a famous master. My sister needs accompaniment? My sister can help you."
With that said, Li Rong sat on the floor gracefully in front of Guqin. The red clothes were already eye-catching, and Li Rong was born with a natural beauty and an extraordinary demeanor. She hadn't restrained her momentum before, Hua Le stood next to her, like a maid standing next to her Behind, people can't notice half a point.
Hua Le realized that everyone's eyes were not on her, she subconsciously moved away from Li Rong in small steps. She knew where her shortcomings were and didn't want to be too obvious in comparison.
Seeing Hua Le sneaking aside, Li Rong raised her eyes and said with a smile: "Sister, you can go a little further."
"Ok?"
Hua Le was a little dazed, and Li Rong raised her hand to the edge of the stage and said gracefully: "It's okay to take a few steps, step down directly, and leave my sister to perform alone."
When Li Rong said this, there was a faint laughter in the surrounding area. Hua Le was a little embarrassed, and reluctantly smiled: "My sister is joking, let's start."
Hua Le said, turning his head and placing the jade flute to his lips.
Li Rong lowered her eyes, raised her hand to pluck the strings, and the tense opening melody came out.
Li Cheng held the sword, made a move, then screamed, and then performed to the rhythm.
Concubine Rou can walk to this position, naturally there is a unique way. Although she came from a humble background, Rou Fei's taste is not bad. For example, the Ping Chuan Entering tune was chosen to fit Li Ming's heart, and it can indeed show a person's ability to drive and control instruments to the extreme.
The tune was very tense at the beginning, and then gradually became more intense, the tune pushed up all the way, without a half-minute interval, as if it was a hand-held knife slashing into the enemy army, fighting all the way heartily.
A person’s tunes often represent all of the person’s state of mind. The tunes chosen by Concubine Rou are correct, and Hua Yue’s skills can barely keep up. If there is no comparison, Hua Yue is pretty good, but now that Li Rong is here, everything is fine. It's the same.
This tune was learned by Li Rong on the battlefield.
In the previous life of Li Chuan many times in the Northern Expedition, Li Rong once went to the front line in person. This song was handed to her by Su Rongqing on the front line. She once played this song in the city tower to stimulate the soldiers' momentum. Compared with her realm, it suddenly appeared as a Chinese flute. Thin and weak, dull and tasteless.
Hua Le also noticed the problem in the middle, and she couldn't help panicking in her heart. This panic made her breathless, and it became more difficult to keep up with Li Rong's piano.
The sound of Li Rong's piano became more and more intense, as if fighting to a critical moment, and at this time Hua Le's low voice could not keep up at all, and could only try to follow, making the sound of the piano appear a little lonely. Obviously when it was the best time, there was always something missing.
At this moment, Su Rongqing stood up silently among the crowd, and walked straight towards the team of musicians next to him.
And Pei Wenxuan in the row opposite him also stood up and walked towards the team of musicians on his side.
Su Rongqing took off her coat as she walked, then came to the drum, put her clothes on the drum stand, and whispered: "borrow it."
With that said, he took the drumstick from the drum master and slammed it down!
The drum sound was confused with Li Rong’s piano sound. The dense drum sound and the passionate piano sound. In an instant, Li Rong seemed to have returned to the time when Su Rongqing was playing the piano in the castle tower. Li Rong raised his head in surprise. For a moment, a rush of erhu and the desolate sound of erhu rushed in.
The sound of the erhu is much slower than the sound of the piano and drums, which seems incompatible, but it is precisely because of this incompatible that it is more and more distinct from the original tone.
Li Rong raised his eyes and saw Pei Wenxuan sitting in the band of musicians on the opposite side, pressing one hand on the erhu string and pulling the bow with one hand, looking at her provocatively.
Li Rong saw the musician who was holding a suona next to him with a sigh of relief. She knew clearly in her heart--
If it weren't for the suona, maybe it's not the erhu that rang now.
