Chapter 016: Husband Selection Conference (Part 2)
A picture scroll depicts mountains and rivers.
Zongzheng Chuyang put down the last stroke and retreated.
After a long time, Liuli finally recovered from the low sound of the flute. The music was gentle and the sound of the flute was melodious. She raised her eyes and saw the loving eyes of the person playing the flute. She felt disgusted in her heart. Never look at that narcissistic guy who is probably habitually ogling women.
Then there was a man performing a sword dance. Although she didn't understand the sword skills, she could still tell that the man danced well. Her thin lips moved, and her heart felt blocked. The person Chu Han selected would definitely be good. Where to go, but the more this happens, the more upset he becomes. Seeing her being attracted and moved by other men, can he really be calm and not care? Ha! Mr. Chu, this is really a rare event in a hundred years. He is like a dragon or a phoenix among the people he meets.
Boredly drinking the hot tea that was delivered to me at an unknown time, I watched with cold eyes as the man dancing the sword retreated and was replaced by a handsome man wearing a black robe. He was beautiful, but a little too cold, and his eyes were cold. , the handsome face is serious, and there is not much emotion on his face or even in his eyes.
Such coldness and tranquility attracted Liuli's eyes. If she had to choose a few side husbands, she would rather choose an indifferent man like him. At least, her future life would be much quieter. A man with this temperament would not have to worry about it. Worried that he will be flirtatious and jealous in front of you.
"Nangong Mingye comes from Jianghu and is known as the 'Ghost Doctor'. He is good at using poisons and medical skills." From the side, Chu Han's deep and sweet voice sounded: "It's just that it is rumored that the ghost doctor is indifferent and doesn't like to be around others. Such a man, Princess It may not be possible to conquer.”
"The more challenging it is, the more I like it." He looked away from Nangong Mingye and looked at him, "For example, I think of a man like Mr. Chu."
He just gave her a soft look in return, as if no matter how much she found fault with her, he could be generous and tolerant and would not share her common sense.
Liuli suddenly felt a sense of inferiority. In front of him, she was like a clown. He didn't care about anything she said. What's the point of spending all her time to ridicule and ridicule him? To him, it was just a matter of time. Watch a joke.
Xu Shiliuli, or Ling Xi, don’t you understand?
After gulping down the tea in the cup, without looking at him again, she focused her mind on Nangong Mingye.
Nangong Mingye was performing an illusion. Dressed in a black robe, he raised his long arms lightly, and the five fingers of his right hand drew several stiff arcs in the air. A picture appeared in the air above him, a pair of birds cuddling together, and even Singing a sweet tune.
Liuli's eyes were unconsciously drawn towards it.
Any magic illusion is nothing more than a cover-up, and the imagined scene does not exist at all, but she doesn't know how he can do all this. The two birds look so lifelike that they don't look fake at all, even their calls They are all so clear and moving, and terrifyingly real.
She stood up unconsciously and took a few steps closer.
Liuli was sitting high up with her back to the sun, and there were many palace eunuchs blocking her face. The men participating in the selection below could not see her face clearly. Now she took two steps forward, and a beautiful face with unrivaled beauty immediately appeared. Presented in front of everyone. In the audience, the sound of heavy and shocking breathing was extremely clear. No one expected that the seventh princess who was described in the legend as unsightly was actually a beautiful woman with a clean makeup who could conquer the country!
Nangong Mingye didn't look at her from beginning to end, he was just concentrating on performing the illusion. His fingers moved in different directions, and the picture of birds singing side by side above suddenly turned into a dancing beauty, with feet like lotus jade in the air,
The body is light and the dancing posture is refined, as ethereal and stunning as a fairy.
Liuli unconsciously took a few steps closer and looked at the dancing beauty. The corners of her eyes were slightly moist for some reason. Her thin lips were slightly opened and she murmured: "No matter how beautiful a woman is, she is just a flash in the pan. What's the use?"
Nangong Mingye glanced at her lightly, "I wonder what the princess wants to see?"
"Luo Hua." His eyes dimmed and he whispered softly: "Sophora japonica flowers, sophora japonica flowers all over the sky and the ground."
Nangong Mingye closed his fingers, and the beauty disappeared without a trace. He lowered his right hand and raised it again. In the blink of an eye, the locust flowers scattered all over the sky and the ground, fluttering in the air, as clean and flawless as snowflakes.
Liuli raised her head high and looked at the petals falling in the air, "It's so beautiful, it's really beautiful."
That day, she was like this, falling into flowers, pretending to slip and fall into the water, and Chu Han took her into his arms at the moment she fell. His embrace was warm and powerful, and in his arms, he felt at ease and sweet as he had never felt before.
.
She missed that moment so much and him at that time.
Her slender body involuntarily walked into the illusion, trying to reach out to catch the falling petals, but as soon as her little hand stretched out, the entire sea of flowers suddenly disappeared without a trace, and there was no trace of the petals that fell in her hands.
"Why?" She looked at the empty palms. Two drops of clear tears that had been hidden for a long time slipped from the corners of her eyes and fell silently to the ground. "Why are they gone? Why? Why can't you keep them? Why?"
"Princess, those are just illusions, not real existences." Nangong Mingye's cold voice sounded beside him.
Only then did Liuli come back to her senses. She was startled in her heart. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and wanted to say something. Chu Han had already walked to her side, hugging her gently and walking towards the main seat. Walking beside him, feeling him
His tender care, but I can no longer feel his love, no matter how painful my heart is, I have to face all this.
They can no longer go back to the past.
Before my mind calmed down, there was already a burst of quaint piano music in my ears. I looked up and saw a plain white figure sitting next to the guqin, playing with the fingers. The simple and elegant piano music felt like it was in my ears, entering my eardrums and entering my heart.
.
My already sad heart suddenly hit rock bottom.
She closed her eyes, trying to suppress the feeling of loneliness, but the more she tried, the more she felt helpless.
In the name of family members, her stepmother and half-sister personally drove her to death, and then threw her body into the sea. Her soul left her body, and she watched coldly as they did the most cruel and bloody things in the world, with no expression on their faces.
A trace of apology and guilt, and even a relaxed and proud smile after finishing all this.
How could the human heart be so ruthless and cold? She even wondered whether her mother's accident more than ten years ago was also the work of these two people? But she did not find the answer in the end, because her time had come and her soul gradually
disappeared, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
Reincarnated as a human, with the memories of her previous life, she became the seventh princess of the Yueli Kingdom, a slutty princess who was hated by the world for being ignorant and ignorant. Why didn't Chu Han hate her and look down on her from the beginning like others? If he did the same
, she would never let herself get lost in his warmth. But she was lost in the end, but after she was lost, she discovered that he was just a habitual gentle protector of her. Perhaps, he was the same to everyone, only her.
He self-righteously believed that this was a sign of his affection for her.
How stupid and idiotic must such a woman be? But why, even now, does she still have his shadow in her heart and can't let go of this man?
At some point, the music of the piano gradually drifted away, and she suddenly came back to her senses. Her face was cold, and her little face had already been wet with tears. She hurriedly wiped away the tears, and the corner of her eye unconsciously drifted to Chu Han aside, and found him
There was also an imperceptible sadness in his eyes.
She was so shocked that she opened her eyes wide, trying to see his eyes clearly, but the complicated pain only disappeared in a blink of an eye, so fast that she couldn't catch a trace of it.
Chu Han's thin lips moved slightly, and he cupped his hands towards the man in white on the stage and said: "Young Master Leng Qing's soul-stirring skills are indeed well-deserved. I admire you."
Liuli also followed his gaze and looked at the man he called "Leng Qinggong", but he just nodded slightly to Chu Han and said hello, holding his guqin in his arms and walking down the ring. Liuli couldn't even see clearly.
His appearance.
Chu Han said in a deep voice: "The next one."
"No need!" Liuli suddenly spoke, "I want the four of them, Ling Xiao, Zongzheng Chuyang, Nangong Mingye, and this Leng Qinggong, and send the others down."
Chu Han was startled and looked at her: "Only four people? There are more behind..."
"I don't have enough physical strength." There was a sarcastic smile on her lips, "I want too much, and I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it."
Chu Han's expression did not change, but the big palms in his sleeves tightened slightly. Finally, he turned to the audience and said loudly: "Princess is destined, Ling Xiao, Zongzheng Chuyang, Nangong Mingye and Leng Qing came forward to pay homage. The others
Stand down."
The eunuch on the side repeated his words.
The four people whose names were called strode towards the high-seat front desk.
Liuli rubbed her forehead. After everything was over, once her mood relaxed, her head felt even heavier.
Four equally outstanding men stood in front of Liuli, each with his own heroic appearance and charm.
"Ling Xiao." Although he saluted Liuli, his expression was very arrogant, and he did not take the princess in front of him seriously at all.
"My Zongzheng Chuyang." His expression was calm and could even be called gentle, but the flash of disgust in his eyes did not escape Liuli's eyes. Ha! He hated her but came to apply for the princess's husband, these people,
How many twists and turns should you have in your belly?
Liuli just wanted to sneer.
The next man had an expressionless face and a cold voice: "Nangong Mingye."
It seems that he is not an easy person to get along with.
"I'm deserted." His voice was like his own, deserted and without a trace of warmth.
Liuli looked up, and when she saw it, she was shocked and speechless by the shockingly handsome face of the man in front of her.
Chu Han's handsomeness is rare in the world, but the handsomeness and elegance of the man in front of him are even more difficult to describe with words! His facial features are simply the most perfect and thoughtful masterpiece of God, with softness in the middle and softness in the softness.
He hides an aura that is stronger and more resolute than most men. One is soft and the other is strong. They work together perfectly. He is so beautiful that women go crazy for him, but he is so cold and hard that no one dares to get close to him.
A pair of bottomless star eyes hide thousands of years of frost. Just one look at them will make you feel like you have fallen into an ice cellar, and every nerve in your body will be numb and stiff from the cold.
"...So beautiful." Liuli moved her lips, but suddenly her vision went dark and she fell softly.
