Joy of Life

Chapter 1271: A tree with flowers, a thousand sounds of zither, and a person

Views:

Fan Xian stood at the entrance of Taiping Bieyuan, squinting at the faint blue color in the courtyard, and after saying that sentence, he didn't say a word. More than a dozen experts in the Xinyang area looked at him in astonishment, wondering what happened in the capital, why did this Lord Chief Si of the Overwatch Council, who was supposed to be trapped in the palace, suddenly appear in the Taiping Courtyard? in front of the door.

A gust of wind passed through the bamboo grove, quietly removing some of the heat around everyone, the Xinyang masters let out a low shout, and rushed towards Fan Xian. Fan Xian frowned and stepped back. His left arm seemed to be able to twist, and he struck out horizontally. The fist suddenly stretched out at the extreme point, like an old tree opening a leaf, and slapped it on a master. cheek side.

Although there was no fan, it still caused the master to lose half of his teeth, blood flowed, and he fell to the ground and passed out immediately.

Fan Xian stood on tiptoe, the domineering zhenqi in his body rushed out, and his whole body shrank, like a faint shadow, rushing out of the encirclement, looking at these people rushing over with gritted teeth, bloodshot eyes became even more bloodshot , his palms trembling slightly.

As I said with Mr. Xiaoyan at the beginning of the meeting, today's Kyoto is basically an empty city for Fan Xian. The most powerful people in the world who threaten him are all attracted to Dadongshan by His Majesty the Emperor. The masters of the Northern Qi Dynasty, or the numbing ninth-rank swordsmen in Dongyi City, were all attracted by that jade-like mountain like a magnet.

There are only three Ninth Ranks in the capital, Mr. Qin is dead, Ye Chong is one of his own, Fan Xian has this confidence, as long as he doesn't fall into the chaos, who can kill himself

It's just that he couldn't know the whereabouts of Wan'er and Dabao, and he didn't dare to attack by force, so he gambled again and came outside the Taiping Courtyard to knock on the door-this may be a bit arrogant, but it is actually a kind of helplessness. Such a method, as sinister and tyrannical as Fan Xian's, can only temporarily get rid of the domineering taste, and turn to find other ways.

However, these Xinyang masters didn't know that Mr. Fan was preparing to attack with words, so they were shocked, and they naturally shot with all their strength. As soon as they met each other, someone was seriously injured, and what kind of bloody battle would follow.

At this moment, those masters who were rushing towards Fan Xian stopped in astonishment, and the crossbow arrows protruding from the wall of the Taiping Courtyard also raised their arrows, and no longer pointed at Fan Xian—Fan Xian narrowed his eyes slightly, Looking at those crossbow arrows, I couldn't help but feel chills in my heart, but there are always too many helpless things in life, if Wan'er and Dabao are to be safe, the tiger mountain in front of me can only be biased towards him.

No one prevented Fan Xian from being admitted to the hospital anymore. Countless pairs of eyes watched his every move either openly or secretly. As long as he reacted slightly differently, the real sniping would start.

Because at this time, in the Taiping other courtyard, there was a very elegant and quiet sound of Guqin, the sound was like flowing water, pure and quiet, making the listeners feel at ease.

Now that Her Highness the Princess had issued the order with the sound of the zither, those masters all over the Taiping Courtyard naturally no longer blocked Fan Xian's entry, but they had endless doubts in their hearts, why did His Highness let Fan Xian in? Doesn't she know that Fan Xian is terrible? Why not take advantage of Fan Xian's opportunity to come alone and kill him in one fell swoop

More than a dozen people escorted or watched Fan Xian slowly, entered the main gate of the Taiping Courtyard, and then stopped in front of the second trestle bridge. The front was a forbidden area, and no one was allowed to enter unless ordered by His Royal Highness the Elder Princess.

Standing in front of the trestle bridge, Fan Xian looked down at the wooden boards on the bridge. There were gaps between the boards, and he could see the clear river below. The Liujing River was in the section of Taiping Bieyuan, separated by the stone path of Shangdao, forming a pool The slow water is like a flat lake, the water surface seems to be still forever and will not flow.

The quiet and peaceful guqin sound came from the inner courtyard across the bridge and entered his ears gently. He looked down at the flowing water and listened to the sound of the piano, as if he wanted to judge the state of mind of the piano operator at this time.

After a while, he tidied up his clothes carefully, stepped onto the bridge, walked steadily to the island, pushed open the wooden door of the inner courtyard, raised his eyes to look at the woman who was stroking the strings under the pavilion by the lake in the center of the island, hugged her hands, saluted respectfully, and said : "I have seen Your Highness."

The sound of the piano was not interrupted in the slightest by this sudden greeting, the pair of hands with green fingers and bright wrists were still so steady as they were flicking and flicking on the strings.

Li Yunrui lowered his head slightly, as if he had put all his attention on the seven strings of the guqin in front of him, but his wrist was slightly heavy, and his fingertips slid to the right. The sound of the piano was more subtle and elegant than before.

I saw a small lake in the center of the island being blown by the autumn wind with a few ripples. The lakeside stones are green and green, which contrasts beautifully with the short and shallow hills around you. There is a pavilion on the hill, but the man and the piano are not in the pavilion. The upper stamens are lightly pink, I don't know what the name is. The autumn wind wrinkled the green pond, brushed the tops of the flowering trees, and the water moved the petals to fall like rain, falling on the wide-sleeved ancient clothes of His Royal Highness the Princess, as if dotted with slightly darker flower shadows.

Fan Xian looked at that place quietly, looking at Li Yunrui's peaceful but still charming face. Today, the Eldest Princess didn't wear any make-up, but just raised her brows lightly, exaggerating her natural romantic aura. The garden is full. A head of black and beautiful long hair was scattered behind her shoulders, and she just used a silk scarf to pull it behind her head, making her look even more beautiful and comfortable.

She was playing the piano with her head bowed, her eyelids drooping slightly, her long eyelashes resting softly on her jade-like skin, Fan Xian couldn't help but think of the eyes his wife inherited from her.

If you don't know who she is, if you don't deliberately associate her age, then any man must admit the charm of this woman.

Fan Xian walked along the bluestones by the lake, squinted slightly amidst the sound of the piano, and said, "Yan Xiaoyi is dead."

The sound of the zither was still humming slightly, and occasionally it would pick up and make a few vibratos, indicating that he knew about it a long time ago, so there was no need to say more.

"Qin Heng is dead." Fan Xian stared at her hands and said softly.

The two fingers of Li Yunrui's right hand slid across the fourth string, pressed it twice, and the guqin under his fingers made a leisurely sound.

Fan Xian didn't hesitate for a moment, and directly forced him with plain and powerful words: "Qin Ye is also dead."

Li Yunrui still didn't raise his head, but the speed of the seven strings of the Guqin was getting slower and slower, gradually becoming more and more sad. In the trembling, the eldest princess' emotions could be vaguely captured.

Suddenly, the sound of the qin became high-pitched again, but the sound of the qin is known for its deep and elegant sound. No matter how fast the fingertips are played, the range is always limited to that range. It should have been played full of hostility. But with a slowness that is completely different from the feeling of speed, it is declaring the pure and harmonious taste of Yongzheng.

Only those who are confident can play the right tone.

At this time, Fan Xian had already walked under the flower tree, walked up to her side, looked down at the strings that rose and fell like waves, and suddenly said: "The world calls me a genius, but in fact I don't know anything about rhythm. To me, your thoughtfulness is probably a response to the sentence about playing the piano with a cow."

Li Yunrui probably has never heard the words "playing the piano to the cow", she still lowered her head, caressing the strings intoxicated and unrelated, she didn't know which bosom friend this song was played for, but Fan Xian just happened to be here at this time Peaceful.

Fan Xian had a thick face and never knew what shyness was. Seeing that the other party was ignoring him, he laughed at himself, then sat down next to the eldest princess, and then said naturally to her profile: "Ye Chong betrayed me!" gone."

The sound of the qin suddenly became chaotic, and there was a muffled buzzing sound, which spread to the flower trees in Qingqiu by the lake, and the strings struggled for a while, and three of them broke!

The Eldest Princess slowly raised her head, looked into Fan Xian's eyes, and it took only a moment to recover her calm emotions, and said, "Every time I see you, I don't seem to hear any good news."

Although in the past few years, the eldest princess and Fan Xian have stood on their own positions, constantly competing and conflicting, and the battle between the two has run through the major events of the Qing Kingdom Court in the past few years, but it is strange to say that Fan Xian I haven't met her a few times. This pair has become each other's worst enemies, but they don't know each other very well.

"If you want to hear the good news, my head should follow the good news." Fan Xian said softly to the eldest princess, his eyes swept around intentionally or unintentionally, but unfortunately nothing was found, his eyes were slightly dim For a moment.

At this time, the eldest princess's hands were quietly caressing the broken strings of the Guqin, her eyes were slightly closed, and her already extremely fair complexion appeared even clearer, and even became transparent, with the usual seductive blush. , I don't know where I went.

Fan Xian's sudden appearance in the Taiping Courtyard was indeed beyond her expectations. This was because Fan Xian's speed was too fast, and the people she left among the rebels had not had time to report the specific situation in Kyoto. And she had faintly sensed a problem, so she attacked Fan Xian immediately, but let him in to see what happened in the second half of the story.

And she held Fan Xian's gate of life in her hand, so she didn't care about the supernatural abilities of this good son-in-law.

It's just that Fan Xian's four consecutive facts made the eldest princess's mind finally loosen. Although she had already guessed the news of Yan Xiaoyi's death long after Fan Xian appeared in the capital, but at this time she was personally confirmed by the person involved. I couldn't help but feel a little sad, after all, this governor has always been her confidant, single-handedly promoted by her, and he is absolutely loyal to her.

And the death of Qin Heng and Qin Ye made the eldest princess feel a little terrified. She never thought that the situation in the capital would turn out like this. Fan Xian's last sentence revealed all the answers, and finally made her angry.

After only being angry for a moment, the eldest princess became calm, opened her eyes, and exhaled like blue lips, but she was a little sad: "But you still want to come and beg me."

"Since I'm here, you can naturally guess what happened in Beijing." Fan Xian lowered his head slightly and sat beside the eldest princess naturally. He and the eldest princess knew each other well, the reason why he dared to be single When he was admitted to the hospital, the eldest princess let him in because both of them held the other's life gate in their hands, and they were unwilling to do so. In the first place, all possibilities were cut off.

The eldest princess captured Wan'er and Dabao, and Fan Xian had already gained an irreversible advantage in the capital.

Li Yunrui lowered her head suddenly, her wide sleeves covered the broken-string guqin, her light-colored clothes trembled slightly under her shoulders, she looked very pitiful.

"I'm here to ask you." Fan Xian said sincerely, "Forget it."

When Li Yunrui heard the words "forget it", he suddenly raised his head and looked at Fan Xian with an indifferent look, without saying a word. Although his eyes were indifferent, Fan Xian saw a trace of resentment that penetrated deep into his bones. It's just that this grievance is obviously not directed at himself, but sees through himself and stabs at some people who are not present.

"Forget it? What right do you have to say these three words to me?" Li Yunrui smiled sarcastically, picked up a faint petal on his shoulder, and said: "Ye Zhong would actually betray... This is indeed beyond my expectation, but since You are here, so why should I be worried? Maybe many people will be afraid of your force, your mind, and the Overwatch Council, but only I, from the very beginning, have never worried about your existence."

Fan Xian was silent.

"Everyone thinks that you are ruthless under the glamorous appearance." The eldest princess looked at him slightly mockingly, "I have to say, you have been really good at disguising yourself in the Overwatch Council these past few years, making people think that you are facing a moment of great interest. You can transform into a person who doesn't recognize your six relatives, but I know...you never were."

"That's why you captured Wan'er and Dabao, and you wouldn't let them go for a moment." Fan Xian cut off her words.

"I said two years ago that you look powerful, but you are actually vulnerable." Li Yunrui said slowly: "You care about too many people in this world, and you are full of life gates. I can grab one at will, and you You can't turn around... Otherwise, if you don't stay in the capital at this moment, why did you come to me secretly?"

Fan Xian lowered his head, and said quietly after a while: "I have to admit, you are really accurate at seeing people. I have too many relatives who care about me, which makes it very inconvenient for me to do things."

"Take Wan'er as an example. You can threaten your son-in-law with the life of your own daughter, but I can't. On the contrary, for Wan'er's life, I am willing to give my life. Night suffers from this, and in the end I have to admit it."

Hearing this, the eldest princess's slightly drooping eyelids glowed faintly.

Looking at the smooth lake surface and the petals flowing slowly with the waves, Fan Xian said calmly, "But... being willing to give up your life and being threatened by others are two different concepts. If Wan'er is sick and needs my brain to heal her illness, Maybe I'll cut it too. But if my death won't benefit Wan'er's safety, why should I do this?"

He turned his head to look at her and said, "I'm here today to ask you to understand that it's useless to threaten me...Of course, we can talk about how this matter can have a good ending. "

"There are so many people I care about, and I'm full of life gates." Before the eldest princess could speak, Fan Xian blocked the last opening, "But just because there are so many life gates, it's no longer life gate. I can't Wan'er, I have to fight back. In that case, what will my father do? What about the elder brother and the third brother? They are all relatives, so naturally they can't tell the difference, presumably Wan'er will agree with my views and actions."

The eldest princess couldn't help smiling and shaking her head. Fan Xian's words had already blocked all the avenues she threatened. Although she could still try, her thoughts had already drifted to other places. Two brothers, it seems that you have finally admitted your identity. The men of our old Li family are always so hypocritical and shameless. What good does it do for you to say so much? It is nothing more than forcing me to make trouble, and then You can comfort yourself, the death of Wan'er and that idiot has nothing to do with you, you just had no choice but to stand by and watch because of family affection... I am the one who is devoid of conscience. It's you."

She looked at Fan Xian's face, smiled and said, "Don't you think you are shameless?" She paused, then laughed at herself, "This is very similar to your father."

The father mentioned at this time naturally refers to His Majesty the Emperor. Fan Xian said after a moment of silence: "It is shameless to cover up evil things with the intention of doing them. I was forced by you to the point of no choice. Deep down, I don't want Wan'er to have a trace inappropriate."

The negotiation between the two has come to an impasse. Fan Xian can kill the Eldest Princess at will at this time. However, Wan'er Dabao, who has not been seen until now, is probably being guarded by Xinyang masters in a certain corner. If Fan Xian Don't do anything, I'm afraid Wan'er will be the first to die.

Fan Xian's face was calm, but his heart began to become anxious, because facing such a desperate young woman, and he couldn't give her anything she wanted, what should he do next

The eldest princess's expression became serious, completely opposite to her pretty face and clean makeup at this time, staring at the lake in a daze, and said: "I said earlier that the men of our old Li's family are shameless, but it is not wrong. Your Majesty last time The purpose of not killing me in Guangxin Palace is to give me a chance, on the one hand, he can obey his wishes, and on the other hand, he can kill me justifiably, without worrying about how this period of history will be described in the history books in the future."

She looked at Fan Xian and said calmly, "He has never really cared for my sister. Since he gave me this opportunity so confidently, I will definitely give him a big surprise."

From Fan Xian's point of view, the emperor's trip to Dongshan Mountain to worship the sky was indeed a huge risk, and he completely underestimated the method of the eldest princess, who was able to invite two great masters from other countries to mobilize the rebel army to surround the capital, so powerful Persuasion skills and organizational skills, such a big plan, it is really hard to imagine that a weak female stream can shoulder it.

However, Ye Zhong's knife also made Fan Xian understand a truth. The eldest princess set up a big picture, but His Majesty set up a bigger picture. Only her elder brother or the one who is here can completely destroy the eldest princess. The old cripple who seemed a little weird in the matter.

"Anzhi, I want to ask you a question." The princess suddenly said, "I tried to repair the relationship with you in the past, but why did you keep holding your hands behind your back?"

Before Fan Xian could answer, Li Yunrui said calmly: "Don't say it's because I tried to kill you, and don't say it's because some of your cronies died at my hands... You and I both know what kind of person you are, maybe You are affectionate and righteous to your family and friends, but it doesn't mean you are really a hot-blooded man."

Fan Xian was silent, and said after a while: "It turned out to be very simple. You refused to retreat, and Your Majesty... naturally wouldn't accept me becoming close to you." Actually at this time, he didn't want to talk about these old things with the eldest princess. However, the eldest princess strangled his life gate, so she can only pretend to be a snake here.

The partial growth of the princess is not like looking back blankly after the failure of the big plan. Fan Xian's heart was shaken, and he stared into the eyes of the eldest princess, only to see her lower her head slightly and say, "Don't get me wrong, I have no desire to join hands with you again, regardless of whether the emperor's brother lives or dies this time, I have no doubts about this matter." There isn’t much interest in the world anymore.”

Fan Xian suddenly noticed that her expression was very sad.

"Brother Huang is indeed the strongest person in the world." Li Yunrui said with a sudden smile: "I made a big mistake, thinking that he just wanted to use Dongshan to worship the sky to lure Liuyun Shishu to kill him, but I didn't expect him to be so strong. It seems that the low-key and forbearance of the past ten years has made him a little unbearable and lonely."

Fan Xian's entry into the garden brought her successive bad news. With the eldest princess's genius planning ability, naturally in the shortest time, she guessed the truth on Dadong Mountain, guessed the emperor's plan, and understood why there had been For five days, no news from Dongshan Road was received.

"Don't think that the news of Dongshan Road being blocked proves that the emperor's brother is still alive." The eldest princess closed her eyes slightly, and said quietly, "That old cripple can do that too. I'm afraid the situation on Dadongshan is not what you expected. no the same."

"Since Ye Zhong made a move, Grandmaster Liu Yun will naturally make a move." Fan Xian said with his head bowed.

There was a see-through expression on the princess's face, and she said lightly: "Although Si Gu Jian and Ku He believe that Ye Liuyun is my man, but those two old monsters...how could they trust a person from the Qing Kingdom so easily."

Li Yunrui's eyes narrowed, but he didn't feel cold and fierce, instead he was indifferent and indifferent: "You and the emperor's brother seem to have misunderstood one thing... After all, I am from the Qing Kingdom. How could it be possible to spend on how to help the emperor rule the world, but not take into account the future dangers of the Qing Kingdom when the time comes?"

"I have never underestimated Brother Huang. I believe that even in a desperate situation, he still has a skillful hand that can turn the world upside down. It's just that he didn't expect that his mastery hand is Uncle Liuyun."

"But... from the very beginning, I never thought about letting Ku He and Si Gu Jian go back alive. The four great masters will come back. Such a character? If the emperor brother wants to kill the two great masters, it is too simple."

"I trust the emperor's brother, so I believe that even if he dies, he will be buried with two great masters, otherwise how can he be worthy of his wisdom and strength." The princess said indifferently: "At that time, it will be me celebrating the state Uncle Liuyun, Dongyi of the Northern Qi Dynasty has no one to support him... And what's the difference in the evolution of the situation now? Uncle Liuyun took action, and the four great masters were all wiped out...It's no different from my thinking."

"Monsters like Grand Master shouldn't exist in this world."

"If there is no great master, with my Daqing army and national strength, I have already ruled the world, why wait until today?"

"No matter what happens on the Dadong Mountain, it will be of great benefit to me in Daqing."

"The four great masters will come to Dongshan. Once they all die, with such momentum, do you think His Majesty can survive?"

Fan Xian was not allowed to open his mouth, and the eldest princess slammed it coldly. Fan Xian's lips became dry, and he didn't know how to answer the words. The masters can live on, but she is not a god after all and can't calculate all the details. However, the current development of the situation seems to be not far behind her expectations.

The only variable, instead, appeared in Kyoto, and appeared in the knife that he left Dadongshan and Ye Zhong alive.

"If the four old guys die together with the emperor's brother. Do you think I will care, who can sit on the dragon chair? Even if you control the capital, I am a little disappointed that Chengqian can't ascend the throne, but... these small setbacks are nothing. What?" The eldest princess glanced at Fan Xian and said sarcastically, "Except for the third son of your majesty's five sons who is still young, the other four, even the most incompetent second son, can lead Daqing to bring down the world." .”

"Use the four great masters to be buried with His Majesty." A proud and crazy look appeared on the eldest princess's face, "Presumably he will also be satisfied with having such four guards in the underworld, and I will be worthy of giving his son a big world." him."

"What about you?" Fan Xian said in a hoarse voice. Only now did he truly understand why his father and Chen Pingping kept whispering in his ears that this woman was a lunatic, a lunatic... Indeed, after such a big deal, She doesn't care who can survive to the end in the war in the capital, who can sit on the dragon chair, anyway, they are all the children of the Li family, anyway, they are all the sons of His Majesty.

"Me?" The eldest princess looked at her good son-in-law like a fool, and said quietly: "Which one do you want to be, the rough soil on the ground or the dazzling shooting star in the world? In life, you only need to bloom your own brilliance." That’s good, people’s words are not to be feared, and history books are not to be shy, a person who likes face like the emperor’s brother still needs my help after all.”

Although he knew that the eldest princess and the emperor's final breakup was caused by himself, Fan Xian still couldn't help asking in a hoarse voice: "...but why did you do this?"

The question was very cryptic, but the eldest princess could hear it clearly. She glanced at the quiet and simple scene of the Taiping Courtyard, and said slowly: "Because he betrayed me, because I want to prove to everyone that a woman can also rewrite this sentence." Smelly men have dominated history for many years."

She stood up slowly, and the petals slid off her body, looking very beautiful.

Fan Xian listened to these words in a daze, especially the last sentence, which he had heard before in Guangxin Palace, seemed very harsh and shocking.

Li Yunrui glanced at the scenery of Taiping other courtyard with a greedy gaze, and said in a low voice: "I liked this courtyard when I was young, but my brother always refused to let me come, and then I asked my father for it. , and was scolded by my brother, how domineering the mistress of this yard was at that time."

She smiled slightly, turned around, causing the neighboring flower trees to tremble slightly, and more than a dozen petals fell. She looked at Fan Xian and said softly and coquettishly, "Tell me, am I finally better than your mother now?"

At this time, Fan Xian had already fallen into an inexplicable emotion. When he heard this, he didn't know how to answer, and could only smile wryly.

The eldest princess danced slowly on the green lawn with bare feet, with a gentle and relaxed mood.

Looking at this scene, for some reason, Fan Xian felt extremely angry in his heart. Yes, you stand taller than everyone else, and you see farther than everyone else. Whether it is His Majesty the Emperor or Li Yunrui, your gaze has been from the very beginning. They were not placed in the capital, but were staring at Dadongshan, at the four great masters who should not have existed in the world, but...

How many people died? How many tragedies are there in Kyoto? How many soldiers of the Qing Kingdom lost their heads and lives just because of your small idea of leaving a name in the history? How many people are crying, how many people are sad

"You are not as good as her." Fan Xian said suddenly.

The eldest princess's feet suddenly stopped on the lawn. She turned her head and looked at Fan Xian with indifference, as if she was waiting for an explanation from him.

Fan Xian raised his eyebrows, still sat on the ground, and said with a slight mockery: "My mother came to this world, at least to make the people of the Qing Kingdom laugh, but you can only make the people of the world cry."

Li Yunrui smiled lightly, with a mocking expression on his face, and was not moved at all.

However, what Fan Xian said next made her angry, because Fan Xian shook his head and said in a very natural tone: "I have seen the portrait of my mother, and I must say...she is more beautiful than you." .”

Fan Xian laughed: "Everyone loves Ye Qingmei, don't they?"

He stood up, patted the grass clippings under his buttocks, and didn't look at Li Yunrui's expression at all. Now that he knew that His Highness the Princess Princess had a death wish at the beginning of the plan, she only wanted the last glory in the world, and then went to the underworld to pursue her The love brother, Fan Xian was exhausted, he just wanted to stimulate the other party, find a way to rescue Wan'er Dabao.

Of course, there is still a huge mystery lingering in his heart.

Can the emperor... survive the turmoil of the grand master battle...

(Writing that everyone loves Ye Qingmei, I naturally think of the part in the TV series and Suzaku that everyone loves Ye Xiangseng, but this love is not the other. Tomorrow I will turn around and write Dadongshan, but I am actually very afraid because I am really worried about myself The ability, please be more tolerant and supportive... Support some monthly tickets, that is naturally the most affordable... I scratched my head like a big treasure and smirked.)
