Reign of the Phoenix - Chapter 698
Murong Zhining hugged yuan LAN affectionately: “there are no banquets in the world, they are for the next gathering. Lan’er, don’t worry, as long as our sisterhood is still there, how can mountains and rivers prevent us from meeting each other? Didn’t general Helan say that? When you give birth to a child, he will take you back to SHANGXIA to see his brother. Then, my palace will accompany you on a trip! When we left Shang Xia, we were in a hurry. We didn’t even have time to say a word to Mr. Yuan. We also look forward to returning to SHANGXIA as soon as possible. Together with Yan Yuexuan, we sincerely express our gratitude to Mr. Yuan! ”
Yuan Lan said with emotion: “I don’t think my brother wants the thanks from you and the emperor. He must be the same as Lan’er, just want to see you two love each other so well! My brother may be doomed to be alone in his life, but this is his life
The emerald leaves the palace at night, and bursts of joy and laughter come out from the courtyard of “Bi Ning Xuan”.
The trees in the courtyard were covered with lanterns of various colors, which made the courtyard shine like day. On the stage set up in the middle of the courtyard, dancers in red and green are dancing a Chu wind dance with classical music.
Yan Yuexuan while shaking his head to enjoy the song and dance, while sighing: “this dance, also can only see a lively. All the dancers, together, do not have the spirituality of Ning’er when dancing. This Chu wind dance is not really in my eye. Ning’er, why can you make people feel integrated into your soul when you dance, instead of just dancing mechanically like them? ”
Murong Zhining looked sideways and responded to Yan Yuexuan with gentle eyes. She said: “when dance becomes a tool for dancers to make a living, where do they have so much passion? In ancient times, soul dancers regard dance as their greatest interest rather than as a tool for profit. Only in this way can they carefully understand their emotions and movements, accurately convey their emotions with their limbs, and let the viewers truly feel the artistic conception she wants to express. Why are you so demanding? It’s good to have such a dancer in a military camp at the border. The hot blooded men in the barracks, don’t they just want to see a lively scene? Who, like you, wants to see other people’s souls? ”
Yan Yuexuan fondly took Murong Zhining’s shoulder: “Yo, I’ll complain, but you’ve counted my countless sentences! I just like to watch you dance. No matter how well other people dance, I also feel that I lack flexibility. Ning’er, your dancing figure often lingers in my dream
Murong Zhining beamed: “Xuan, Ning’er learned a play of farewell my concubine with a famous star in Shang Dynasty. Ning’er is going to dance a sword dance for you today. How about drinking as a group
Yan Yue Xuan said gently, “why not? I can’t get it! In Yongning, everything has the final say. I’ll give you a trick. How about a guest role as king of Chu? ”
Murong Zhining’s eyes suddenly flashed past the king of Chu disguised by Yuanzhi. A trace of sadness appeared in her eyes: “no, Ning’er is not Yu Ji, you are not Chu overlord. Even in the play, Ning’er is definitely reluctant to part with you. You accompany general Helan to drink two more cups. Ning’er goes to change clothes and dances swords to help you drink. ”
Yan Yuexuan’s obsessed eyes fall on Murong Zhining on the stage. Murong Zhining is dressed in bright yellow scales. She dances her double swords, and the beads on Yu Ji’s crown sway gently. Murong Zhining’s one move in one form, especially serious, full of graceful charm, as if Yu Ji reincarnation.
Everyone held their breath for fear that a little noise would destroy the beautiful artistic conception.
From the stage came the sound of drums and huqin. Murong Zhining’s figure blended into the sword light, like a dragon, swimming in the long sky of lightning and thunder; her ethereal and high pitched singing voice was just like a quiet empty valley, and from time to time there were two calls of Yellow Warblers.
Yan Yuexuan was intoxicated. He beat the beat on the edge of the cup with his chopsticks. The wine cup in front of him overturned, but he didn’t realize it. In his heart, he was full of Murong Zhining’s delicate and delicate shadow.
He LAN MINGYE’s eyes wander back and forth between Murong Zhining and Yan Yuexuan. Yan Yuexuan’s deep love for Murong Zhining makes him admire him. He secretly congratulates himself that he has decisively let Murong Zhining live.
Yuan LAN has a smile on her face. Her eyes of love always fall on the face of He Lan MINGYE. She knows in her heart that the man she loves has really put down her obsession and will belong to her.
The sound of drum music stopped suddenly. Yan Yuexuan broke the fine porcelain blue and white bowl in front of him, and the whole courtyard fell into a silent state.
Yan Yuexuan didn’t come back to the stage for a long time. He went to the stage, took Murong Zhining down from the stage, took her into the warm shed, and put her back on the main seat: “even if it is the reincarnation of King Chu’s concubine, how can you defeat my Ning’er? Just now, I was filled with hatred and wanted to fight against the king of Chu! ”
Meng Xia covered his mouth and chuckled: “emperor, if you and your mother love each other again, will you also score points and match them? Are you not afraid of our embarrassment? ”
Picking mulberry and smiling, he fell on chiyun Siyuan’s shoulder: “sister Meng, you are worried. The emperor only has his mother in his eyes. How can I have you and me?”
Yan Yuexuan didn’t think so. He took a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat on Murong Zhining’s forehead. His eyes were full of pity: “or picking mulberry to understand me. In my eyes, I can only pretend to be Ning’er.”. You can make fun of me, but my Ning’er is thin skinned and can’t stand ridicule. Her small face is blushing with shame! “Yang suo’er clapped her hand: “emperor, where are sister Meng and Caisang making fun of you? They all resent that their husband is a wood and will not please them like the emperor does to his wife. ”
Picking mulberry pinched Yang suo’er’s cheek: “Yo, when you are the wife of general Shi, do you have the confidence to speak? I still remember you as you were, like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world before. ” The crowd roared with laughter.
“Yang suo’er, when the emperor and his wife rescued you from Minghua County, you thought that Minghua county was more prosperous than Shangjing county.”
Shi Yong said with a smile: “Madame chiyun, my wife is a country woman who has never seen the world. Please hold your hand high and don’t make fun of her.”
Yang suo’er’s eyes were red: “suo’er has been selling dog skin plaster with his father since he was a child. He has not even gone out of the gate of Minghua county. Father’s life is poor, even have no name, let others call him Yang Goupi. He didn’t even enjoy a day’s happiness, so he left the lock and left… ”
Shi Yong gently comforted: “lock son, you still have me! I’m so much older than you, and I’m sure I’ll give you fatherly love. ”
Yang suo’er burst into tears and laughed: “you are the husband of suoer. Who wants your father’s love?”
Picking mulberry pricked Yang suo’er’s forehead: “shame or not? Are you serious? ” Yang suo’er knew that she had made a mistake and covered her face with shame.
He LAN MINGYE grabs yuan Lan’s hand: “Hua Yan is really a great country with civilized people. I really envy you. With such an open-minded king and queen, even being a common people is very happy. When he ascends the throne in the next day, he will follow his Majesty’s example and raise the status of little lady gishhan, so that Lan’er can enjoy the highest courtesy. ”
Yan Yuexuan shook his head with a smile and said, “if all the men in the world are like me, they will surely have peace in the world! Ning’er, I want you to meet someone else. ” He waved not far away.
A woman with a white cloth wrapped in her face and dressed in coarse cloth slowly stepped forward and knelt down on the ground.
Murong Zhining sent out a exclamation: “Cui Mengxuan? Xuan, was it you who took her in? What do you want to do with her? ”
Yan Yue Xuan said softly: “Ning’er, it is your kindness that touches the softness of my heart! When I first saw that she could not assassinate you, but was forgiven and treated kindly by you, I decided to take her in. She has confessed her crime through a handwritten confession. It was not her husband, Chai Bin’s family, but her father who had made her such a victim. Cui Shangshu was afraid that Cui Mengxuan’s crime would implicate her family and destroy her appearance. He cut her tongue and found a woman with her body similar to her. He killed Cui Mengxuan and expelled her from Shangjing. I have asked Chai bin. Chai binnian is willing to let her return to Chai’s mansion, regardless of her faults, in the love affair with her husband and wife for many years. ”
Murong Zhining looked at Cui Mengxuan kneeling on the ground with pity: “jealousy is a woman’s nature, but you should not indulge your jealousy and do evil deeds that are beyond the mercy of nature. You not only harm this palace, but also harm yourself. Cui Mengxuan, are you really repentant? ”
Cui Mengxuan looks up at Murong Zhining. Her eyes are full of tears, and she says, “ah Ah… ” The voice, desperately nodded his head.
Murong Zhining leaned on Yan Yuexuan’s shoulder: “Xuan, it turns out that kindness can change others. Ning’er always believes that it is the king’s way to repay good for evil. Then bring Cui Mengxuan back to Shangjing tomorrow! ”
Cui Mengxuan knelt down on the ground, but refused to leave for a long time.
“Cui Mengxuan, don’t push your luck. Your father’s case involves corruption. I have sent him to the criminal department for trial. This is not a problem that can be solved by selling you a favor.”
Cui Mengxuan anxiously screamed and kowtowed.
Murong Zhining holds Yan Yuexuan’s hand: “Cui Mengxuan is not pleading for her father. She wants you to forgive her sister Cui mengrui.” Cui Mengxuan nodded repeatedly.
Yan Yuexuan shook his head helplessly: “Cui Mengxuan, Cui mengrui is the abandoned imperial concubine of the king of Jiangling. I am not the only one who offends her. She tried her best to frame up my Ning’er. I can forgive her, but she belongs to the king of Jiangling, and I can’t forgive her sin in private because she is the king of Jiangling. ”
Murong Zhining shook Yan Yuexuan’s arm: “Xuan, you’ll be a good man. Go back and tell your brother, let Cui mengrui go out of the palace. After three years of hard labor in the palace, she was lame again, and she was punished as she deserved
Yan Yuexuan said with a conceited smile: “this matter originally who says love all has no use, but helpless mouth is my Ning’er, how can I not give Ning’er face? Cui Mengxuan, since my Ning’er pleads for your sister, I won’t remember the villain. Your Cui family is now a guilty minister. You two can’t avoid being implicated. I’ll send you back to Chai’s, and you’ll live in Chai’s house. Although Chai bin has a romantic nature, he will never give up on you. You should be grateful. By the way, you must remember that the benefactor of your two sisters is my queen. From now on, you two will recite Qifu for her every day! ”
Cui Mengxuan kowtowed, she had been kneeling backward to climb out of the yard, to show her reverence for Murong Zhining and Yan Yuexuan.
Caisang pouted discontentedly: “why did the emperor spare her sisters like this? If it’s the empress who is in trouble, they may not know how to deal with her! In my opinion, the wicked should be punished with the most severe punishment. The punishment should be painless. In the future, everyone wants to step on his mother’s footYan Yuexuan fondly stretched out his hand and held Murong Zhining: “don’t worry about picking mulberry. I hold Ning’er to the sky. I’d like to see who’s feet are so long and can be lifted so high to step on my Ning’er? Isn’t it, Ning’er? ”
Murong Zhining bird nestles on Yan Yue Xuan’s shoulder like a man: “you have a pair of long legs!” People clapped their hands and laughed.
Yan Yue Xuan feiqing way: “my long legs, was born to Ning’er you hold up to heaven.”
The army slaves scalded a round of hot wine for the people, and they talked and laughed until late at night, and then they came back with each other contentedly.
Outside Yongning in the morning, Yan Yuexuan takes Murong Zhining’s hand and says goodbye to Helan MINGYE and Yuanlan, ready to go back to Beijing.
