Nangong Yue's face was flushed red. It was the first time since she was reborn that she was so awkward. She didn't know what to do.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Yi became even more anxious, and the worry in his voice couldn't be concealed, "Smelly girl, where are you hurt? No, I have to ask the doctor... I'll take you to the couch to rest first."
Nangong Yue saw that he was nervous like a headless chicken, and a warm current flowed through her heart. Fearing that he would really ask for a doctor, she hurriedly held him back, emphasizing with a slightly stiff tone: "A Yi, I am the doctor!"
Speaking of which, she was really ashamed, thanks to the fact that she is still a doctor.
"Although I don't know medical skills, I still understand the truth of being able to heal but not self-healing!" Xiao Yi said confidently.
With his naughty temperament, I'm afraid it's not so easy to fool him. The corners of Nangong Yue's eyes twitched, she struggled for a while, and finally surrendered. Her voice seemed to be squeezed out of her throat with difficulty, low and light: "Ayi, I'm fine, I, I should be Kuishui." As she said, Nangong Yue's face turned redder, she was always wise. It turned out to be bad in this matter.
Kuisui? The handsome young man was stunned for a moment as if he had been struck by lightning.
In my memory, when I was in the barracks, I seem to have heard someone say that once a woman has sunflower water, it means that she has grown up and can have children!
In other words, his stinky girl had menarche!
Xiao Yi stared at Nangong Yue in a daze, and felt very complicated for a moment. After a while, he suddenly came back to his senses, and hugged her again in a panic, "I'll carry you to the couch first..." As he spoke, he hurriedly carried her to the inner room, put her lightly on the couch, helped her take off her shoes, covered her with a quilt, as if she were a fragile enamel doll, then frowned and Said, "Smelly girl, you have lost so much blood, is this normal? I'll ask someone to call An Niang and the others over..."
"etc!"
Nangong Yue nervously stretched out her hand from under the quilt and grabbed him, staring fixedly at the blood stains on his robe, "You want to go out like this?"
Xiao Yi followed her gaze and looked at his robe, but he didn't react yet.
Nangong Yue's complexion froze again. If he went out like this, the servants in the whole yard would know that their sunflower water got on him in a short time. That would be really...
Besides, everyone in the world has said that this woman's sunflower water is unclean, and a man can't easily touch it...
Thinking about it, Nangong Yue was so regretful that her intestines were green. After all, she was still too vigilant.
She took a deep breath and said with a blushing face, "You change a set of clothes first."
Xiao Yi looked at the pool of blood that had turned dark red, and then he realized it suddenly. He rummaged through the box to find his clothes, and then hurriedly took off his outer robe...
Nangong Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and finally brought her consciousness back to herself. She felt a slight sinking feeling in her abdomen, and her obscene pants were sticky, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
She threw off the quilt and planned to get out of bed to look for the menstrual belt that An Niang had prepared for her. She sighed in her heart: In her previous life, she had her menarche when she was almost fifteen years old. So she never thought that her menarche would suddenly be early in this life, and she didn't feel much discomfort, so she made this joke.
But also, in this life she knows that her body is weak, so she pays more attention to conditioning her body than in the previous life, and now it seems that it is still effective.
Seeing Nangong Yue getting up, Xiao Yi didn't care about changing into new clothes. He threw the soiled robe aside and walked over with a big stride, his voice slightly raised: "Don't get up! If you want something, I'll find it for you That's it..." He pressed Nangong Yue's shoulders, trying to push her back on the couch...
"Prince Concubine, is there..."
The door curtain was suddenly lifted from the outside, Lily heard the movement in the room, and wanted to come in and ask Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi if they had any orders, but halfway through the conversation, her body stood there like a sculpture, dumbfounded. Seeing that Shi Ziye is pressing Shi Zifei to the couch, he looks like a domineering king.
Is this what she saw
Her eyes glanced at the robe that Xiao Yi had casually thrown aside, and she saw the red blood stains on it sharply.
At this time, Que'er came from behind with a stack of account books, saw Lily blocking the door, and said, "Lily, why..."
Her words also stopped abruptly before she finished speaking, and she also saw the situation in the inner room, her mouth was so wide that she could almost swallow an egg. The two little servant girls looked at each other, then moved at the same time, lowered the curtain, and quickly stepped back to avoid it.
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue in the inner room looked at each other quietly, time seemed to stop at this moment, the two of them didn't react for a while...
"Pfft--"
Xiao Yi suddenly laughed out loud, leaning forward and backward with laughter, his eyes were filled with a faint watery light, sparkling.
Nangong Yue stared at him angrily at first, thinking that all of this was his fault, otherwise the maids would not have misunderstood him.
But soon, she also opened her mouth to laugh out loud, the laughter was as clear as a mountain stream.
Come to think of it, it's really funny!
But the two of them didn't have a chance to laugh for too long. After a while, there was a sound of messy footsteps outside.
Xiao Yi pretended to sigh helplessly, with an expression of "he is going to be in trouble soon". Sure enough, the next moment, An Niang came in through the curtain and looked at Xiao Yi with condemning eyes, as if to say that when he became Before the marriage, you clearly agreed to wait for Nangong Yue and Ji to consummate the house, but now it's only less than a year away, and you actually broke the contract!
Behind Anniang, there were three servant girls, Baihui, Baihe and Que'er, and the eyes of the four were surprisingly consistent.
Xiao Yi believes that if he doesn't explain this matter clearly, his father-in-law and mother-in-law will probably come to visit him tomorrow and have a heart-to-heart talk with him...
But that doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
Seeing Xiao Yi winking at her, Nangong Yue almost laughed again. Although embarrassed, she still explained: "Ms. An, it's my childhood..."
An Niang was stunned, and at first she stared at Xiao Yi with more and more angry eyes, as if she was saying that the concubine has come to Kuishui, and you are still acting like a wolf, you don't know how to be considerate...
etc!
An Niang suddenly thought of something, her face was overjoyed, she quickly stepped forward and said: "Concubine Shizi, your childhood is here!"
She couldn't care about Xiao Yi anymore, sat on the edge of the bed, asked and took care of Nangong Yue carefully.
Immediately afterwards, the big man Xiao Yi was kicked out of the inner room by the maids, and the maids became busy, Baihui went to prepare hot water, Lily went to get new clothes and menstrual belt, Que'er went to the kitchen to make People prepare brown sugar water.
It was more than half an hour after Nangong Yue cleaned her body, changed her clothes and bedding, and lay back on the bed again.
An Niang gave a few more instructions to let Nangong Yue take a good rest, and then retreated out with the maids. Nangong Yue finally closed her eyes in a relaxed manner, feeling a sense of warmth sweeping through her whole body.
Xiao Yi walked in quietly, the sinking of the bed let Nangong Yue know that there was someone beside her, opened her eyes, Xiao Yi hurriedly said: "Don't open your eyes, you have to have a good rest." Just now An Niang Telling him about the various discomforts that would occur when the woman Kuishui came, made Xiao Yi look at Nangong Yue more cautiously. "Smelly girl, do you think it's okay? Do you want me to rub your stomach for you? Or let the maid prepare a soup for you."
Nangong Yue's heart was warm, the corners of her mouth raised unconsciously, and she said, "No need, I'll be fine after a while."
Xiao Yi helped her tuck the corner of the quilt, and said: "I'll go to the side to read a book, if you feel uncomfortable, call me." He was about to get up when he thought of something, "Smelly girl, tomorrow's Jinxin will not be as good as yours Don't go, I'll send someone to say hello to Mrs. Jijiu."
Nangong Yue held his hand with a smile, "Ayi, I'm not a patient! I'll be fine after I sleep for an hour or two." Nangong Yue can almost imagine that Jiang Yixi, Yuan Yuyi, and the others would have died if she hadn't gone to the Jinxinhui. I will definitely come to see her. If I know that it is because of Kuishui that she didn't go to the Jinxinhui, then this time it will be really embarrassing. And she really didn't feel much discomfort.
Her firm eyes finally convinced Xiao Yi, but on the second day, Nangong Yue knew that she was too happy.
She just came together, Xiao Yi didn't even go to Wucheng Bingmasi, he kept surrounding her, asked her how she felt, and began to persuade her not to go to Jinxinhui.
It wasn't until she assured for the hundredth time that she was fine in Bai He's smiling eyes that Xiao Yi still got on the Zhulun carriage with her uneasy, and escorted her all the way to the gate of the Imperial College, only at Nangong Yue's repeated request , walked back and forth step by step.
Although Nangong Yue was a little embarrassed, she could make people miss her so much. With a warm smile on her brows and eyes, she said to Lily: "Let's go in."
Today is the first day of the Jinxinhui finals. Unlike the two competitions held in one day in the preliminary competition, today there is only one music competition.
At this time, the entrance of the Imperial College was already full of traffic, which was much busier than the days before the preliminary round.
Not only the dignitaries with all kinds of posts arrived, but also other good-natured people gathered in the teahouses, restaurants, and shops near the Imperial College, thinking that even if they couldn't enter the Imperial College, they could join in the fun outside and discuss about the Jinxinhui latest news.
Although Xiao Yi was worried, Nangong Yue didn't feel any discomfort. After getting off the car, she was welcomed to the Qionghua Pavilion. She came half an hour earlier, but what she didn't expect was that the other judges had already arrived. Not only that, but the other side The Qiushui Pavilion has also gathered a lot of spectators, and there are many more new faces than the previous preliminary competition.
Everyone's face is filled with a different kind of expression, which also shows the unique influence of Jinxinhui.
Nangong Yue sat next to Yuncheng just like last time, chatting and laughing, Leyi's finals started on time at Sishi, and there were seven girls participating in the finals this time.
When the gong of the competition sounded, Nangong Yue keenly felt the surrounding atmosphere changed. The judges, spectators, and the first girl below who had just entered the competition all looked solemn, and the surrounding atmosphere unconsciously It became tense.
Next, the competition repertoires chosen by the girls proved this point even more, "Mingshan", "Long Lovesickness", "Guangling San"...the repertoires they chose were more difficult than the next, trying to show their excellent skills.
These girls are all the outstanding ones selected from the preliminary competition. Skills are not a problem, but as Nangong Yue once said, the competition is not only about skills, but also more...
Nangong Yue sighed slightly as she looked at the girls who were tense like bowstrings.
One song after another, and I don't know how long it took, Jiang Yixi appeared as the sixth contestant. She chose a song "Pingsha Luoyan", which started with a soothing rhythm and beautiful overtones. Refreshing and immersed in it.
Then, the melody changed and became lively and lively, dotted with the geese singing that appeared and disappeared in the middle, which seemed full of vitality... When the melody turned to the end, the melody returned to harmony and tranquility.
Among the top ten zither songs, the difficulty of "Pingsha Luoyan" is not high, but the tune is melodious and smooth, timeless and fresh. After listening to the previous tense pieces, people unconsciously relax and soothe them. The judges closed their eyes and savored carefully, feeling the tranquil but lively artistic conception.
When the sound of the piano stopped, Nangong Yue opened her eyes with a smile, almost certain that Jiang Yixi must be the leader today.
Sure enough, all the judges, including her, gave the first-class results, and there was warm applause at the scene. Anyone who knows a little bit about music knows that Jiang Yixi has the winning ticket.
Then came the seventh girl who participated in the competition. Her mood was obviously affected. She tried several times just to tune the tune, and made several mistakes in the last song "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms". Such mistakes It is impossible for a girl who is qualified to enter the finals to make a mistake. After barely playing a song, she almost couldn't wait to get off the stage.
Even if the girl's results haven't come out yet, it's self-evident that Le Yi is the leader. Jiang Yixi became today's winner with undisputed results, and Yuncheng personally awarded the jade medal representing the leader to Jiang Yixi.
In an instant, the audience once again burst into warm applause. Jiang Yixi is the first leader of this Jinxinhui. Today, she is the most shining protagonist.
Of course, there are also sour people who whisper to others, this person is not perfect, although Jiang Yixi's background, talent, character and appearance are excellent, but he has a difficult offspring, this woman's life, that is, offspring is the most important thing. Speaking of heirs, he couldn't help mentioning Han Huaijun, the eldest son of King Qi's concubine who has been in the limelight recently, and he is quite worthless for him. And thinking about it this way, many people feel much more comfortable in their hearts.
"Miss Jiang's piano skills are really extraordinary. The song just now was euphemistic and fluent, with stillness in the movement, and movement in the stillness. I admire it very much." A female voice like a clear spring suddenly spoke, which was a little stiff and awkward. His tone of voice immediately attracted all the attention in Qionghua Pavilion.
Everyone followed the sound, only to find a blue-eyed girl in a white veil skirt and a white veil on her face appearing at the stairs on the second floor. With those strange blue eyes, she immediately guessed that she was the famous Baiyue saintess who put her clothes on.
And beside Bai Yi there is a familiar slender figure, dressed in a blue brocade robe, wearing a golden crown on his head, with a handsome face, the viewers can't help but praise: what a handsome young man facing the wind.
Jinxinhui is where women in the boudoir compete for talent, and men are generally not allowed to watch the competition. Even if it is now the finals, only the truly educated people and "everyone" can enter the Imperial Academy to evaluate the talents of all the women. It's just that Han Lingfu is the prince, and he came with Baiyue Saintess to arrange clothes, so he finally let go.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"
Everyone in the pavilion saluted Han Lingfu one after another, except Yuncheng.
Han Lingfu had originally misunderstood Bai Muxiao, and indeed planned to distance himself from Baiyi to prove his innocence, but he was leading an errand for the Lifan Academy, and Baiyue was a visitor from afar, and there were always various problems in Dayu. Inconvenient, whenever something happens, Bai Yi will come to him for help. Such a talented and beautiful girl begged softly, and she always abided by etiquette and never did any flattery because he was the prince. Such a demeanor made it difficult for Han Lingfu to refuse. He came and went, and he appreciated Bai Yi more and more.
Today, the clothes were placed because he heard the name of Jinxinhui, and wanted to come to see the elegant demeanor of the Dayu woman, so Han Lingfu brought her here.
After everyone greeted each other, Jiang Yixi said to Baiyi neither humble nor overbearing: "Thank you for your praise."
"Bai Yi remembers a saying by Dayu: 'A gentleman makes friends through literature, and helps people with friends'. I don't know if there is a chance for Bai Yi to follow suit today and make friends with 'joy'?" Bai Yi asked with a smile.
It would be extremely presumptuous for any woman of Dayu to say this sentence. Jinxinhui is not just for anyone to come to. It has always been necessary to obtain Jinxintie before you can show your talents in front of everyone. And Jinxintie is something that is hard to find. But Baiyue came from Baiyue, so it was natural not to know the rules. Besides, she was Baiyue's envoy, and she was a "guest". If she refused, it would be a bit impolite. After all, Dayu is a state of etiquette.
But the rules of the Jinxinhui were set by the previous dynasty...
Madam Jijiu lost her mind for a while, so she looked at Yuncheng, the highest status here, for help.
Yuncheng sneered in his heart, qin is "the first of the eight tones". Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "a gentleman left the qin and wrote on the right, and never withdraws the qin book for no reason". How could this southern barbarian Baiyue understand the qin
Yuncheng said indifferently: "Since the girl in clothes is so interested, I want to listen to it."
Originally, the leader of Leyi had already been elected, and today's Jinxin Club was over, and the spectators in Qiushui Pavilion on the opposite side were planning to leave one after another, but someone immediately noticed the movement in Qionghua Pavilion with sharp eyes, which made people Come to inquire... Knowing that the saint of Baiyue is going to challenge the Jinxinhui's music competition, there was an uproar in the Qiushui Pavilion, and those who were planning to leave all sat back, whispering and whispering.
It seems that this time there is another good show!
Although these noble ladies and noble ladies of Dayu have heard of the extraordinary dancing skills of this Baiyue saint, how can this "dance" compare with "qin"
For a moment, countless eyes in the Qiushui Pavilion looked towards Qionghua Pavilion, focusing on the saintess' clothes, full of interest.
At this time, the personal servant girl of Bai Yi had already taken out an object from her bag and handed it to Bai Yi.
This is…
Everyone's eyes were full of astonishment, including Yuncheng.
The instrument held by the clothes is not a qin, but a xun, a purple clay pottery xun.
Also, Jinxinhui's music competition did not limit the types of musical instruments. In the preliminary competition, some girls played the flute, pipa or zither as instruments, but the few girls selected for the finals happened to be playing the piano.
Nangong Yue was a little interested in seeing the posing clothes holding Tao Xun, and even felt a little anticipation in her heart, wondering if the posing clothes would be as eye-catching as the very exotic dance at the palace banquet.
Bai Yi held the pottery xun and walked to the railing, leaning on the railing, the summer breeze blowing, blowing her veil fluttering, looking like a fairy.
After blessing everyone with Dayu's etiquette, she held Tao Xun to her lips and began to play...
The sound of the xun is mysterious and hazy, low and sad, and deep and sad, as if it is telling everyone an ancient and beautiful love story.
It's "The Peacock Flies to the Southeast"!
Immediately someone heard it.
Gradually, the sound of the dam became serious and deep, as if a couple who loved each other deeply appeared in front of everyone, but they had to temporarily separate because of various difficulties from their mother-in-law; the wife abided by the agreement with her husband and vowed not to remarry , helplessly threw himself into the lake; when the husband came back, knowing that he would never be able to reunite with his wife in this life, he also died in love...
The peacock flies southeast and wanders ten miles away!
Before they knew it, everyone was fascinated by what they heard, their eye circles were reddish, and some young girls who hadn't experienced anything had tears in their eyes, and they wiped away the tears from the corners of their eyes with handkerchiefs.
Until the sound of the xun stopped, everyone was still shrouded in a kind of faint sadness and sentimentality, with a bit of melancholy in their hearts, and they couldn't get rid of it for a while.
I didn't expect this Baiyue saintess to have such a talent!
At some point, the sky outside became gloomy, and the summer sky turned like a book, as if even God was moved by the song just now.
"Tick tock..."
The sky quickly fell large raindrops, densely packed, and in the blink of an eye, the ground was half wet.
Master Wang of the Imperial Forest Court stood up suddenly, bowed his hands to the clothes and said: "The sound of the saint's xun is extraordinary and refined, it is admirable."
This Mr. Wang's temper is famous for being upright, saying that one is one, and he will never lie.
Han Lingfu also applauded: "The girl in Baiyi is really talented, not only in dancing, but also in blowing xun." He looked at Baiyi with unconcealed admiration. Although Bai Yi is from the land of the Southern Barbarians, she is not weaker than the talented women of Dayu in any aspect. If she really participates in the Jinxinhui, I am afraid that it will be hard to say who will be the leader of this music art!
Bai Yi put away the Tao Xun and walked slowly, but his eyes fell on Nangong Yue, and he blessed his body and said: "Shizi Concubine, we meet again. Bai Yi heard that the judges of Jinxinhui are all in this skill It can be called a master's talent, I wonder if the concubine Shizi can let her wear clothes to see the concubine's music skills?" Her small chin was slightly raised, revealing an undisguised provocation, "or is it that the concubine does not rely on real talents to learn? sit here?"
This is not the first time that the saintess has provoked Zhennan Wang Shizi and concubine in full view.
The people around immediately saw the doorway and exchanged glances with each other.
Nangong Yue glanced at Bai Yi calmly, for such a provocation, modesty or courtesy would only make people look down on her.
Jinxinhui is where a woman's talents can be displayed, and she can only fight.
Nangong Yue smiled and said to Jiang Yixi: "Sister Xi, can I borrow your piano?"
Jiang Yixi naturally agreed, and ordered the servant girl to put her qin on the qin case in the pavilion.
Nangong Yue cleansed her hands and burned incense, then sat up straight in front of the piano case.
The rain outside the pavilion was pouring down, not only did not have the slightest intention of stopping, but it was getting bigger and bigger, densely intertwined into a hazy rain curtain, and the raindrops hit the leaves, flowers, branches, and the ground... All kinds of sounds messed up mixed together.
The clothes on the side looked at the pattering rain curtain, the corners of the bright red mouth seemed to be smiling under the thin veil, and thought: This is really God helping me! God is destined to make this Nangong Yue embarrassing!
On the other hand, Jiang Yixi frowned slightly. Many things depended on the right time, place and people. The luck of this dress is really good. At this moment, the heavy rain is pouring down, which is likely to overwhelm the sound of the piano, thus affecting the effect of the piano music.
Jiang Yixi looked at Nangong Yue worriedly, but saw that her expression was calm and calm, obviously she had a plan in mind. Based on Jiang Yixi's understanding of Nangong Yue, Nangong Yue must have a plan in mind, and Jiang Yixi's high-hanging heart was slightly relieved.
For a moment, all eyes were on Nangong Yue.
She placed her hands on the qin, turned her head slightly, and the ten slender fingers moved rapidly, and a sonorous and powerful qin sound flowed out from under her fingers. Sounds, sounds of swords and crossbows, sounds of men and horses breaking up one after another...
It's the song "House of Flying Daggers"!
Such a murderous repertoire should not be played by women, let alone in the Jinxinhui, but at this time, the battle between Dayu and Baiyue has just ended, and Nangong Yue used this song to deal with the Baiyue Saintess The provocation, people can not help but feel meaningful.
A cold light flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes. She was not the kind of girl who had never witnessed an iron-blooded battlefield. When the kings of the previous life were defeated, the fighting and screaming seemed to still echo in her ears... The melody below is like a stormy sea rushing down, shocking people's hearts for a while, making people's blood boil and impassioned.
Afterwards, the sound of the song became tragic and beautiful, as if one could hear Xiang Yu's tragic song of generosity, Farewell My Concubine, and suddenly the sound of cavalry chasing after him.
At the end of the song, the audience was silent, and everyone was fascinated, as if they were in the torrent of history, witnessing Shen Xiong's tragic and tragic Chu-Han struggle, and felt deeply their own powerlessness and insignificance.
"good!"
Yun Cheng stood up and gave high fives.
Then, there was a burst of warm applause, which almost suppressed the sound of the rain outside. People in both Qionghua Pavilion and Qiushui Pavilion stood up unconsciously. The applause did not stop for a long time. The applause was not only for Nangong Yue, even more for the glory of Dayu...
"Wonderful, really wonderful! The sound of the rain seems to accompany the sound of the zither..." Lord Wang was full of praise, and said hello repeatedly, "The Concubine Shizi really deserves to be born in a Nangong family, with extraordinary qin skills and even more Reaching the pinnacle."
Mrs. Wang couldn't help thinking: If Nangong Yue hadn't been married last year, the title of the leader of Jinxinhui Leyi today must have fallen on her.
Thinking about it, Mr. Wang felt a kind of regret.
Nangong Yue stood up, and said calmly: "Master Wang is absurd."
"Miss Baiyi," Yuncheng looked at Baiyi with a half-smile, and deliberately raised his voice and asked, "What do you think of Shi Zifei's piano sound?"
Yuncheng's question was naturally provocative, but even more retaliatory. Anyone with ears could hear that Nangong Yue's song "Ambush from Ten Sides" was definitely better than the song "Peacock Flies Southeast". The skill is superior, and in terms of artistic conception, "The Peacock Flies to the Southeast", which only focuses on the relationship between men and women, also seems a little petty, gloomy and sad, far inferior to Nangong Yue's impassioned song, war, family and country, children's personal love... big Love and love are lingering and intertwined.
The cherry lips under the veil of the dress were tightly pursed into a straight line. Of course she did not challenge Nangong Yue today out of sheer spirit. It's just that although Nangong Yue is well-known in the capital, it is because of her outstanding medical skills, but not in other aspects. She didn't expect the other party to have such accomplishments in music, but she made a mistake.
Bai Yi gritted his teeth secretly, willing to admit defeat in the bet.
She settled down, looked at Nangong Yue calmly, blessed Fushen gracefully, and said, "Shizi Concubine's piano skills are inferior to Bai Yi's." But she thought to herself: This is just the beginning of her plan... Who will lose? It's hard to say who wins!
Looking at the graceful posture of the clothes, Han Lingfu who was on the side flashed a touch of admiration in his eyes.
Bai Yi is indeed somewhat similar to Xiao Er...
Han Lingfu couldn't help thinking of the letter Bai Muxiao sent to him, and his eyes lit up.
After this small disturbance, the first day of the Jinxin Club's music competition finally came to a successful conclusion.
But no one noticed the flash of sharpness in Bai Yi's blue eyes when he left the Imperial College.
