Chapter 1: New teammates 1

When I sit on the piano stand, I am always blind, and nothing can enter my eyes. I can only feel my soul shuttle in the sound of the piano, and only when I play the piano do I know that I still have a soul.

But today I can't be blind, because I'm no longer that Qingcheng sitting on the Qintai in the brothel. I have already been bought by the Lord of the East China Sea, and from now on I will play the piano only for him. Without the cover of the beaded curtain of the Qintai, just face to face like this, I can see but lost the only trace of soul.

Yes, I used to be a famous prostitute in a brothel—the oiran of Yanzhou Prefecture. I have no heart, no soul. All day long, I circled among men of all colors, my eyes were as charming as silk, and there were all kinds of amorous feelings. Every man can't escape my alluring smile, and I have never lost in flattery.

Until I saw Wang Yue of the East China Sea, I knew the danger was coming, because I was afraid of him, just like the helpless fear of the prey seeing the hunter. I knew that I might lose against him, and if I lost, I would end badly.

"My lord, do you only want to listen to the piano when you bought Qingcheng? Or let Qingcheng serve you..." Since he might not be able to beat him, why not let him think that I am just a humble and vulgar bastard, I don't fight for favor and don't talk too much, so To be safe, I never take risks.

"Are you really the talented oiran of Yanzhou Prefecture?" His slender fingers caressed my chin, "It seems... different."

"My lord, are you saying that Qingcheng's powder is uneven today?" I put my hands on my cheeks and stroked them on the left and right. But I was shocked in my heart, he actually observed me, and played the piano when I was most defenseless. I really have to be careful, I can't let him know about my past, otherwise...

"The beauty of Qingcheng with a smile is naturally beautiful, and she also needs to apply powder. Will anyone believe it?" As he spoke, he moved closer to me, and his lips touched my earlobe lightly, "It smells so good, but it's not the fragrance of powder, it's your body. fragrant."

I froze slightly, and instead of retreating, I moved forward, leaning my whole body into his arms, and gently tugged at the skirt of his chest. "My lord, you are good or bad, you can make jokes, but you can't listen to them." As long as this man is interested in my body, it won't be too difficult to deal with. I can guess that he bought me for beauty or other reasons.

I felt his hands on my waist and cuddled even tighter. Unexpectedly, he was pushed away, he fixedly looked at me, and then slowly pulled the corners of his mouth into a slight smile. At that moment, I just felt a flash in front of my eyes, "Epiphyllum..." That's right, this man's smile made a blooming Epiphyllum float in front of my eyes.

"Qingcheng, you said that if we laugh at the same time, will there be more people looking at you or more people looking at me?"

I was speechless for a moment.

After the death of Emperor Wu, Emperor Hui was incompetent. The political affairs are chaotic, the morals are betrayed, and the ethics are no longer there. Many wealthy and high-ranking officials are robbing civilian women everywhere, and there are countless illegitimate children. Could it be that the dignified Eastern Sea King is the product of such a dirty relationship, I wondered to myself.

Under the shining candlelight, his face was handsome and sinister, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was not as bright as before, but rather cold. Looking at it, my heart skipped a beat, could it be that he is... . Can't think, can't think, knowing too many secrets will be very tiring and easy to become a dead body.

"My lord, you are joking again. Everyone in the world knows that the king of the East China Sea is the most outstanding in all aspects among the eight kings of the Western Jin Dynasty. Your demeanor is even incomparable to the other seven lords, let alone the small Qingcheng? The lord can shake you with a smile. In heaven and earth, soldiers can be used while talking and laughing, let alone the love of women in the world. But Qingcheng’s smile attracts only some anti-husbands and vulgar people, how can the majestic man of the prince be compared to Qingcheng’s female stream.”

"A majestic man, hahahaha...."

In his smile I can catch that trace of sourness. is why. Is it really what I think

"Qingcheng, if you are really what you say, how can you be Qingcheng?"

"If the prince is not happy, Qingcheng can change the name." I know I've exceeded the rules, but I want to bet that he knows something.

"Oh, that's not necessary. There is no Qingcheng, how can there be troubles for women. Qingcheng, you underestimate yourself too much. With your beauty, you can overthrow the country. And you have other uses."

His eyes locked mine for a long time, no more smiles, and he didn't allow me to dodge. Manman chanted "Abandoning Chengqin to heal the heart, and wearing colorful clothes in troubled times. Is this a good sentence? Qingcheng, you hid really well. You have not been discovered for so many years. Fortunately, you have not been discovered by others, otherwise I How can I hold your stunning beauty now?" He resumed his teasing smile at the beginning, his hands were clenched behind my back, and his lips stuck to mine like this. Cold, that was the only feeling I had at the time. Like two pieces of ice meeting together. Apparently he felt it too, and ended the kiss hastily. "Qingcheng, you are really cold. Maybe we are the same person?"

"My lord, what do you mean? What else is Qingcheng hiding? And don't you like the two songs made by Qingcheng?"

"Qingcheng, you are a smart man, I have made it so clear, you should know what I have found. Stop trying to convince me that you are not the person I am looking for, if once I believe that you are not the person I am looking for , With your intelligence, you have already guessed my life experience and intentions, do you think I will keep you?" After speaking, he stood up from the horizontal table carved with dragon and phoenix pictures, flicking the folds of the cloak with his slender hands. That movement is as natural and elegant as I flick the falling flowers on the piano. This Eastern Sea King definitely has the ability to charm men and women. He walked up to me, stroked my cheek lightly with one finger, and suddenly pinched my jaw with two fingers and lifted it up. I frowned and looked sideways at him in pain, but he sneered, proud like a naughty boy, "It's really stunning, finally there is someone who matches me, beautiful, smart, sophisticated, who can overthrow the country as well as Protecting the country. Haha..." Finished. He left me and walked out.

At the door, he stopped and turned his head slightly to look up, "Qingcheng, I prepared this specially for you, Overturning Pavilion. The location is at the bottom of the whole yard." He even knew this, I couldn't help but Pale face - I have no escape.

The lamp oil seemed to be exhausted, and the bean-like flame suddenly flickered twice and then went out. The night was as cold as water, and I still maintained the posture just now. The door was ajar, and the wind blew in through the crack of the door, and through the clothes, it was slightly cold. But I don't want to move.

The hands moved unconsciously on the strings, and it took a long time to understand what song was being played. Alas, since I have chosen to escape from the world, why can't I let go, why can't I be reconciled? Why not be willing to name Qingcheng? Since it has been named Qingcheng, why is it still not willing to be "Desperate Qingcheng, named Qingcheng." Avoid fireworks, fall into the world of mortals. Abandoning Chengqin to heal the heart, and wearing colorful clothes in troubled times. 'For the world to hear? It turned out that I really couldn't escape the common customs. I wanted to escape my fate, but also didn't want to be forgotten by the world.

"Teacher, you said that my spiritual power is extraordinary, but my concentration is insufficient. I have no wisdom, but I have no hidden heart. The seven emotions are too much, the six desires are impure, and I end up destroying myself. Insufficient strength, but I still don’t learn from it, and avoid the brothel. This time, if I make the mistake of not having a great hidden heart and impure desires, I’m afraid there will be no way out, and I will eventually kill myself.” Thinking so far, I can only Shaking his head and chuckling. Gently pushed the piano table away, stood up slowly, walked to the incense burner table, found flint under the incense burner, and lit another oil lamp.

I pulled out a silver hairpin in my hair, and picked out the lamp heart. Looking around, this is a very simple outer hall, with only a horizontal table, four high chairs, a piano table and a piano. There is a small door on the left and right, with bead curtains hanging, which should be the inner room and study. Although it is simple, it is exquisitely made. No matter the beams, columns or tables and chairs, they are all carved with dragon and phoenix pictures. A house full of dragons and phoenixes, this Lord of the East China Sea is really bold, his ambitions are clearly revealed.

"Miss Qingcheng, my name is Taoer. I was sent by the prince to serve you. Can I go in?"

"Come in."

Tao'er, who pushed the door and came in, seemed to me to be 14 or 15 years old, with a pale face and a double bun. Round eyes, very cute. I looked at her fixedly, and she was looking at me at the same time. I'm watching her because I want to be sure of her role in me and Donghaewang. And she looked at me, judging my looks, I guess. "God, there is really someone who can compare to the prince!" She cried out. "Tao'er, is that right? Let me take a look at your right hand." Although she was puzzled, she put down the copper basin in her hand and handed it over. "Girl, what do you think Tao'er's hands are doing?" After looking carefully, I let out a long breath. Not only will she not be my obstacle, but she may also be my turning point. As for the chance, I still can't see clearly, at least I can be sure of one thing, the maid sent by the King of the East China Sea is not only not my enemy, maybe I can use her to break my fate in the end. This is probably beyond the imagination of the King of the East China Sea. Thinking of this, I really laughed.

"Ah, everyone says that an oiran is a beauty, and a smile is a beauty. I lost all my wealth, and I just asked for a smile. I told the prince that I didn't believe it, and the prince said that I would serve you after you came. Today I finally know what a smile is. Girl, you must smile often!" Tao'er was stunned for a while after seeing my smile before saying.

"Oh? I'm just a prostitute in a brothel, bought by your prince, don't you feel wronged to serve me?"

"How could it be!? Don't say that the girl is a fairy-like person. Even if Master Xian told me that the girl just fell into a brothel by mistake, the girl is actually very talented. She is good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and medicine. So what if she is an oiran? She is also a talented oiran. Please don’t ask me whether I am wronged or not in the future. You are looking down on me if you ask me like this. Tao’er is not such a superficial person. Tao’er has studied with Mr. Xian for a year anyway book."

Seeing her hastily clear up, her small face flushed slightly, and her red lips were slightly pouted. My heart seemed to be bumped lightly by something, and I was slightly moved, recalling the past. "Okay, okay, it's mine, I won't say it in the future. But you want to tell me who Mr. Xian is?"

"Mr. Xian is Mr. Jing Xian, the prince's counselor. By the way, Mr. Xian also said that you can divination, so were you looking at Tao'er's life just now?"

"That's right, it's for your fate." At the same time, I was also watching my fate, I added softly in my heart.

"The fate of Taoer..."

"I only saw peach blossoms, and peach blossoms that bloomed very early." I propped my chin with my hands and looked at her suddenly shy face playfully.

"The peach blossom... how long will it last... bloom... will it bloom... okay?" She blushed and asked, wringing her hands in front of her.

"This... I'll tell you later depending on how well you serve." In fact, I have already seen that peach blossom. If I hadn't appeared in her life, she would still be happy in troubled times, and her peach blossoms would bloom very well. She has been a person who has accumulated good deeds in her past and present lives, and she is blessed with prosperity and well-being. But she met me before her horoscope was fully finalized and on the right track. I will share her blessings, and she will bear my fate. Everything becomes a variable.

"Then... I'll serve the girl to bed now, okay?"

"Not good. If you want to serve me well, you have to listen to me. Now go to bed and come back tomorrow morning. I have something to ask you."

"But aunt..."

"No, but, don't worry, I can do anything with hands and feet. I'll call you again if something happens, and I don't want to sleep yet."

"Okay then, girl, take a rest early, and I'll come over early tomorrow morning. I'm in the hut next to the waterside pavilion, call me if you need anything."

"Well, let's go down."

Seeing her retreating lightly, I was stunned for a while, then turned around and blew out the lamp and sat down in the chair again. "Jing Xian." I read this name in my heart. It turns out that the number one counselor in the world is under the command of the King of the East China Sea. According to legend, he retired two years ago, but it turned out that he retired to the Palace of the East China Sea. No wonder I hid in Yanzhou Mansion for five years and was only discovered now, because of him. Think about it, and my turnaround...

Tao'er's words tonight aroused my memories of the past. She is good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and medicine. Yes, that is part of my destiny. I stood up and walked outside. The autumn night was as cold as water. I unconsciously tightened my skirt and saw the red smock. Ever since I entered the brothel, I seem to always wear red clothes, but five years ago I hated red clothes very much. I remember that I always wore purple clothes in Gaolong Village at that time, and there was Du Liruo in white clothes, and Duanmu Kai in black clothes. In the layout of the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams, I occupy the Li position, Li Ruo occupies the Kan position, and Kui occupies the Zhen position. Although we have different destinies, we have spent twelve years of spring and autumn together. There was no news until I ran away to change my fate and hid in the brothel again.

Put your hands in the sleeve pockets of the wide sleeves, there is the tortoise book that I haven't used for nearly five years, well, I will do a divination for myself tonight. Thinking, I turned and went back into the house. (end of this chapter)
