Chapter 109 Princess Towering into the Clouds
Lou Yingqi opened his mouth, wanting to remind him.
But the father's aura was so strong at this time that he didn't know how to speak.
However, Zeng Shilin did not keep him waiting. He slowly looked at him and asked:
"If you want to make the princess party surrender, I have a way."
"What method?" Lou Yingqi trembled and looked at his father expectantly.
"Is the snake's body still there?"
The corner of Dad's mouth curled up into a sneer.
"Uh..." Lou Yingqi looked up blankly.
"Send it to my palace later. I will stew some snake soup and send it to the eldest princess."
Lou Yingqi opened his mouth in shock.
He first looked at Zeng Anmin.
He looked at Zeng Shilin again.
I was in a trance for a while.
"Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger is a good strategy!"
Zeng Anmin gave a thumbs up.
Dad slowly raised his chin and said in a calm voice:
"In other words, Dean Shi went to the border with Ji Qing to subdue the demons. Otherwise, I wouldn't have given you this bowl of snake soup."
Dean Shi.
The dean of Qilin Academy in Beijing.
An absolute boss in the second-grade Confucianism and Taoism realm.
He was also my father’s support in Beijing when he was young!
But this big tree is now working with the Imperial City Secretary Tiju Ji Qing to slay demons in the north.
"Thank you, Mr. Zeng."
Lou Yingqi unknowingly changed his name for his father.
"Well, it's getting late, so I won't leave Mr. Lou to eat."
Dad slowly picked up the tea cup.
"I resign."
Lou Yingqi bowed to his father respectfully and slowly retreated towards the door.
…………
"Don't give it away?"
Zeng Anmin blinked and looked at his father.
Zeng Shilin stared at him expressionlessly for a while, then took a sip of tea and asked lightly:
"So why are you still sitting here?"
"Uh."
Zeng Namin twitched the corner of his mouth and stepped towards Lou Yingqi outside:
"Uncle Lou, let me see you off!!"
…………
It's night.
In the extremely gorgeous palace.
Somewhere in a courtyard.
A mature woman sat.
There was a very ornamental chime in front of her.
At this time, his long white fingers twisted the slender bell and gently struck the chime in front of him.
The mature woman is extremely gorgeous, and her eyes are as if covered with fine sand, making it difficult to see clearly.
Just like the stars, it attracts the eyes of young people.
Every part of her facial features looks just right.
At the corner of her mouth, a red mole gave her an alluring beauty.
“Ding ding ding~”
The melodious sound of chimes sounded melodiously in the courtyard.
The face of the mature woman is full of enjoyment.
She was wearing a black gown, exuding an unparalleled nobility.
As her tapping rhythm became faster, the two peaks rising up and down rose up and down.
The most eye-catching thing is her waist.
The extremely narrow and slender waist was gathered up by a jade belt, forming a very beautiful arc.
It arouses people's imagination and makes them blush.
Next, the round buttocks sat on the futon, forming a gap between the bright yellow futon that made people breathe hard.
Everything about her was perfect.
She is like a work of art carved out of white jade by top craftsmen.
The maid on the side bowed her head in great respect.
Waiting quietly for the mature woman to strike the chime.
The song ends.
Only then did the maid dare to speak: "Your Highness, Princess Ning'an is here to see you."
The mature woman slowly raised her head.
He looked straight into the palace maid's eyes.
"What's the matter?"
She spoke with a touch of elegant indifference.
It's like being aloof from the world.
But there is also a hint of extremely alluring temptation.
The sound is extremely beautiful, just like the sound of music.
"I don't know."
The palace maid's body bowed even lower.
"Aunt!!"
At this time, a figure came from outside the courtyard like the wind.
There was a hint of coldness in Ning An's eyes. She came to the eldest princess, pointed to the outside of the courtyard and said:
"Kill all those palace maids and eunuchs!"
"Keep blocking me from coming in!"
"Dog slave!"
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but gnashed her teeth again:
"In my place, if a few slaves dare to stop me like this, they will chop it into pieces and feed it to the dogs!"
……
Ning An was still the same, making everyone speechless as soon as he appeared.
A coldness flashed in the eldest princess's eyes, and then a smile appeared on her elegant face. She slowly stood up from the futon:
"It's just a few minions, why bother."
Only then did her true form appear.
Long legs, slim waist, round hips and those very eye-catching towering hills.
She is extremely tall, a head taller than Ning An.
She was condescending, her smile was gentle, she looked at Ning An and asked:
"Why are you here looking for aunt today?"
Ning An said matter-of-factly: "I have no money. Come to my aunt for some. This time I will give you a thousand taels first."
The eldest princess chuckled and said, "What's the matter?"
After saying that, she raised her chin, looked at the palace maid aside and said:
"Go and get a three thousand tael silver note for His Highness Ning'an."
"Yes." The palace maid still lowered her eyebrows and looked down.
But before leaving, he narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ning An.
Princess Ning'an was completely unaware of this. She sat carelessly on the futon where the eldest princess had just stood up:
"The dim sum here is delicious, are there any more?"
The eldest princess smiled softly, shook her head and said: "It's not lunch time, not yet."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a voice:
"Your Highness, Princess, someone saw you and said they were giving you supplementary food, which can warm your qi and blood."
"Oh?"
The eldest princess frowned slightly, looked at the palace maid and asked:
"Who sent it?"
"Shang Shudi." The palace maid replied.
Shangshu No.?
It should be left to chance.
The eldest princess' brows relaxed slightly, she nodded calmly and said:
"Well, I'll send you my pair of chicken-blood jade-red cups from the warehouse as a return gift."
"Yes."
After the palace maid entered the house, not long after, she encountered a small and exquisite box and went outside.
"What chicken blood cup?" Ning An, who was sitting on the futon, looked at the princess who was leaving, and then looked up at the eldest princess curiously.
From her perspective, she could only see the high protrusions of black fabric.
Cover the eldest princess's face firmly.
"It's just worthless stuff."
The eldest princess chuckled lightly and didn't care much.
"Oh, I want it too." Princess Ning'an looked at the eldest princess as a matter of course and said:
"I will also send a pair to my Yongning Palace tomorrow."
The eldest princess' expression froze slightly.
Then he smiled, took a deep breath and said, "Okay."
"Yeah."
"That snake soup."
Princess Ning'an's eyes looked at the palace maid who was walking slowly not far away, carrying a food box.
"Your Highness."
The maid came to the eldest princess respectfully.
"Open it and take a look!" Ning An ordered the palace maid.
The palace maid pursed her lips, slowly raised her head and looked at the eldest princess weakly.
"Open it."
The eldest princess nodded slightly.
"Dog slave!" Ning An was so angry that her teeth itched and she stared:
"You won't listen when I ask you to open it?"
"Why bother with her?" The eldest princess took a breath, suppressed the restlessness in her heart, and stared at the palace maid.
Ning An still wanted to be patient, but he smelled an extremely unpleasant smell.
She frowned momentarily and looked at the food box.
The smell of blood assaulted his nostrils.
"What is it? It smells so bad?!"
Ning An pinched her nose and retreated.
The eldest princess also had a gloomy look on her face, looking into the food box with an unparalleled coldness in her eyes.
Then he saw a bowl of bloody snake soup lying there quietly.
Where is the soup?
It was clearly a bowl of snake meat with blood! ! The eldest princess suddenly raised her head and looked at the palace maid, with a murderous intention in her voice:
"Are you sure it was sent by Shang Shudi?!"
The palace maid trembled violently: "Return to Your Highness, it is indeed sent by the Minister of War!"
"They also say that the meat of the green viper is the most delicious..."
Green viper? !
Minister of the Ministry of War? !
The eldest princess's eyes narrowed sharply.
She seemed to hear a voice.
Lou Yingqi is now my Ma Zai.
I saved his life!
If you are dissatisfied, come find me later!
"Did you say anything else?"
The eldest princess's face was expressionless, and her voice was as cold as winter.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
"He said that this bowl of snake meat is so exquisite that it needs to be wrapped in rice paper from Qishan Road..."
Qishan Road.
Rice paper...
The white hands under the eldest princess's sleeves were tightly clasped together.
At this point, how could she not understand the threat involved?
Qishan Road means King Qi.
Rice paper...
She took a deep breath, without any feeling in her eyes, and her voice was cold:
"Let Chi Bufan come to see me!"
"Yes."
…………
Imperial College.
Today is another beautiful day.
Zeng Anmin and a group of students were sitting in an open space at this time.
In front, an old figure sat opposite the group of students.
The figure had white beard and white hair, and his complexion was simple and old.
He is Li Lianting, the "music" master of the Imperial College.
It is also known as the best piano in the world.
There was a ten-stringed harp placed in front of the desk beside him.
The piano is extremely beautiful and the lines are extremely smooth.
The same goes for the students below.
There is a long harp in front of everyone.
But relatively speaking, their pianos are much more ordinary.
“Ding~”
As Li Lianting's withered-looking hand gently stroked the strings, an extremely beautiful sound came.
Everyone subconsciously looked up at Li Lianting.
"The way of music is not just for music. When we, Confucian cultivators, practice music theory, we are not practicing music, but "transcendence"."
Li Lianting's voice had a leisurely tone.
Ringing in everyone's ears.
"What is "Yue"?"
"An ancient sage said that the more mountains and rivers you cross, the more you cross yourself."
"This is also the third level of music theory."
"…………"
The knowledge the old man told circulated in the air.
Entered Zeng Anmin's ears.
But it couldn't get into his mind.
He was even a little drowsy at this time.
"As expected, I'm still not suitable for listening to this kind of stuff."
Zeng Anmin yawned.
He glanced sideways at Qin Wanyue, who was entranced.
Qin Wanyue's profile is extremely beautiful.
At this time, her eyes were filled with brilliance. Listening to Li Lianting's explanation, she would nod in confusion from time to time...
Zeng Anmin immediately respected Qin Wanyue.
He will never be able to achieve this kind of good student's class status in his life.
This was also the case in music lessons in my previous life.
If asked to sing, he would howl louder than anyone else.
But what are you going to tell him about "Doremi has diarrhea."
He immediately fell asleep.
"This is what music theory is all about. Can you remember it clearly?"
Li Lianting's eyes glanced around.
Then he saw the little fat prince who was already sleeping on the table.
There was also Zeng Anmin, who was sitting in front of the little fat prince with his eyes blank.
And on the other side, Liu Xian is dozing off with his head down.
These three people have been like this since class started.
get out of class is over soon, and it’s still like this.
Li Lianting's eyelids twitched slightly.
He took a deep breath, and a cold expression flashed across his face:
"How about I play a song for you?"
Upon hearing this, all the students' faces lit up.
His eyes were filled with anticipation.
It is said that the sound of Master Li's piano can make birds lose their way.
Finally got to see it today!
Li Lianting took a slow breath, and slowly moved his withered hands towards the piano.
"Ding~!!"
An extremely harsh sound sounded.
"Huh?"
The little fat prince was instantly aroused by the sound. He raised his head sharply and didn't even bother to wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth. His whole body trembled.
Liu Xian's sleepy head also raised sharply.
The sleepiness in my mind disappeared instantly.
"What?!" The extremely naughty begonia flower on his head fell off.
Fortunately, the sound of the piano was enough to suppress their noise.
And no one noticed them.
"Ding!!!"
The next moment, an extremely chilling sound sounded from Li Lianting's piano.
It's like an army fighting in battle.
Everyone was so excited that goosebumps appeared on their bodies.
"Hiss~"
Zeng Anmin took a breath, couldn't help but come back to his senses, and looked towards Li Lianting.
This master has something! !
“Ding ding ding~”
The sound of the piano continued, resounding very neatly, and fell again.
Li Lianting's withered hands were shaking like raindrops on the piano.
Everyone felt extremely depressed when they heard this.
Finally, the last sound of the piano fell!
"Ding!!!"
It seemed to be the sound of fighting.
The sound of the piano stopped suddenly.
Li Lianting looked at all the dull eyes, and the corner of his mouth curved:
"How?"
"Master Li's piano sound is unparalleled, and I have benefited a lot from it today."
There was a hint of admiration in Qin Wanyue's tone.
"Haha."
Master Li stood up slowly: "I'll play the part just now one by one."
? ?
Everyone's eyes flashed with confusion.
"I have been accompanying the piano all my life. In my opinion, the "music" of the Six Arts is the realization of the soul and has nothing to do with the sound of the piano. And this song "Bian Guan Yue" is also the most suitable for the realization of "music"."
Li Lianting looked at the crowd calmly and said: "So it doesn't matter whether you play well or not. What matters is whether you can express the chill in your heart that matches the sound of the music when you play."
……
Very profound.
These words naturally caused everyone to whisper.
"Who comes first?"
"I'll do it first!!"
The first one to speak was the one sitting behind Zeng Anmin...Liu Xian.
There was a touch of confidence on Liu Xian's face, and he gently stroked the ten-stringed harp in front of him, which was no worse than Li Lianting's:
"The song "Bian Guan Yue" is just in line with the "playing qin" in the hands of students, so let the students make suggestions!"
"Haha, then you should try it first." Old God Li Lianting looked at Liu Xian.
……
"Play the array?"
Zeng Anmin looked curiously at the piano in the boy's hand.
The piano is completely black, but there is light in the black. The overall lines are extremely smooth, and every string has a touch of luxury.
"The Liangyou Chamber of Commerce is indeed very wealthy, and Liu Sanjiang is quite willing to support his Confucianism and Taoism."
The prince was very close to Zeng Anmin, and there was a look of pity on his face as he looked at the "playing harp".
The voice sounded slowly.
When Zeng Anmin heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed. He looked at the prince and asked
"Liu Sanjiang? Liangyou Chamber of Commerce? Is he Liu Sanjiang's son?"
"Yes." The prince nodded slightly.
Zeng Anmin looked at the willow string.
A sentence slowly emerged in my mind.
“With only the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts and no accounts of the Liangyou Chamber of Commerce for comparison, what credibility can it have?”
It's exactly what dad said to Mr. Lou yesterday.
The sun shines on Zeng Anmin's face.
Then I saw his eyes looking at Liu Xian getting brighter and brighter...
