Chapter 17 Attracting Attention and Surprised by a Song (2)
Are you from Ye Country? You don’t know Concubine Zhu, right? This has always been Meng Xinzhu’s biggest worry about getting involved in gangs.
Seeing that Meng Xinzhu was stunned, Eunuch Ming thought she was so happy after hearing the news from her hometown, "Ms. Zhu, please, the emperor is still waiting."
Meng Xinzhu followed Eunuch Ming to the imperial garden alone. She was thinking about this all the way. It was not until she was approaching the flower hall that she could hear the voices of the emperor and the others. She took a deep breath. It was a blessing, not a curse. There is no way to avoid disaster
,Meng Xinzhu, you need to calm down.
"I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."
"Oh, Concubine Bamboo, come and sit flat on your back."
Meng Xinzhu stood up slowly and sat aside, still lowering his head slightly.
Hongde Longqiu smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, Concubine Zhu is the princess of the Ye Kingdom. Maybe you have met her before."
The tenth princess looked at this person from her homeland. Her face was pale and her eyes were lifeless. She could tell that she was sick. She also saw her calm face and plain clothes. It seemed that the life of the subjugated princess was not good, and she couldn't help but feel...
After a burst of sadness, he said, "Back to the emperor, although my wife was born in the Ye Kingdom, she has not been lucky enough to meet the princess. Therefore, I sincerely ask the emperor to grant my daughter-in-law a chance to chat with the Bamboo Concubine."
"Of course. This is an imperial garden, not a court, so there is no need to be too restrictive."
Meng Xinzhu and the Tenth Princess walked to the side of the stone board and sat down. The Tenth Princess pulled her and said, "It's great to meet the princess."
Meng Xinzhu smiled. The princess spoke very standard Cantonese. She also replied in Cantonese: "I am very happy to see the princess." Of course I am happy. You haven't seen the real Princess Zhu anyway, so I don't have to worry.
Wearing help.
"It seems that the princess is not doing well."
Meng Xinzhu raised her hand and pointed at her chest, "As long as you live a good life here, that's all."
"The princess is really an open-minded person."
"No matter what you suffer, you can't suffer it in your own heart!"
Hongde Longqiu turned to face the Tenth Emperor's brother and asked him to tell him about his experience in the southern part of the Moon Kingdom. The Tenth Princess talked to Meng Xinzhu about interesting things from their childhoods. Although Meng Xinzhu was not childlike, fortunately she had seen a lot.
Things, plus some improvisation, chatting and laughing with the ten princesses, it was so lively. Even Hong Delong Qiu and Hong De Long Hao couldn't help but stop talking and look in their direction. Hong Delong Qiu
She couldn't help but squint her eyes. Compared with the Tenth Princess, Concubine Zhu's appearance was very different, but the smile on her side face added a lot of vitality to her sick appearance. She looked very comfortable and felt like a spring breeze.
"What are you talking about, so happy?"
Only then did Meng Xinzhu and the Tenth Princess realize that Long Qiu and Long Hao were already standing beside them, and they quickly stood up.
"We are all a family, so there is no need to be so formal." Long Qiu said with a smile, "I heard you enjoyed your chat here, so we will join in."
"Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law and the Bamboo Concubine were chatting about interesting things about their childhood. I didn't expect that the Bamboo Concubine was also very naughty when she was a child."
"Oh?" Long Qiu looked at Concubine Zhu. It was hard to see that such a quiet person could be naughty. Was it the palace or illness that had worn away her spirit?
"By the way, Bamboo Concubine, I have something for you."
Meng Xinzhu looked at what the Tenth Princess put in her hands. It was a brightly colored, round and plump red bean. "Red beans are born in the south. When spring comes, there will be a few branches. I hope you will pick more. This is the most loved thing."
"Sister, you are so talented!" The Tenth Princess couldn't help but sigh, "In just a few words, the meaning of this thing is revealed."
Hongde Longqiu also looked at Zhu Fei. She was really talented in literature. Alas, why did he only meet her so late? He wasted ten years of her talent.
"Sister Zhu Fei is so talented, why not compose a song based on this red bean to congratulate the tenth emperor brother and the princess on their wedding." Yue Fei is not a person who is used to being ignored.
"Okay!" The tenth princess smiled, "People from the Ye Kingdom are naturally good at singing. My sister, please ask the Bamboo Concubine for a song."
"Okay!" Hongde Longqiu, who had heard Zhu Fei sing, said, "Come here, play the piano."
Of course Meng Xinzhu knew that Concubine Yue wanted to make herself embarrassed in front of everyone. She struggled a little. If Concubine Yue wished, I believe the emperor would forget Concubine Zhu again, but there was no hope for the amulet. On the contrary, there was
She had the opportunity to ask the emperor for an imperial edict to complete her goal of pretending to be the Bamboo Concubine, but she might also be exposed. What should she do? Looking at the guqin in front of her, Meng Xinzhu pursed her lips, and she finally decided to take a gamble.
"Then I will show my disgrace." Meng Xinzhu held the piano with both hands, closed her eyes, and then slowly started playing and sang:
"I'm afraid it's too late. I have to hold you until I feel your..."
"Shut up!" Concubine Yue had already stood up, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhu dares to sing such obscene words in front of His Majesty. She should be punished for the crime of disrespect!"
The other three people were stunned. Except for the ambiguous word "hug" in these sentences, they couldn't hear anything obscene. But how could Concubine Yue be so sure? Seeing this, the Tenth Princess stood up and said: "
Your Majesty, this song has just begun and I can’t quite hear it. Why don’t I let the Bamboo Concubine finish singing it? If it’s true as the Yue Concubine said, it won’t be too late to punish him.” After all, he is still a fellow countryman.
Hongde Longqiu frowned and looked at Concubine Zhu. The woman was still sitting there with a calm expression. She was not alarmed by Concubine Yue's words. She even raised the corners of her mouth, half-smiling. He waved his hand and said, "Concubine Zhu, you
Go ahead and finish singing!"
Listening to Hongde Longqiu's slightly warning words, Meng Xinzhu wanted to laugh even more, but she still held back and started playing again:
"I'm afraid it's too late/I want to hold you/until I feel your wrinkles/with the traces of time
Until I am sure you are real/until I lose my strength/I am willing to do it for you
I can’t move/I have to look at you/until I feel your hairline/with traces of white snow
Until my vision becomes blurry/until I can't breathe/let us be inseparable
If I can give up the whole world/at least there is you worth cherishing/and you being here/is the miracle of life
Maybe I can forget the whole world/I just don’t want to lose your news/The mole on your palm/I always remember it there
I'm afraid it's too late and I have to hold you/until I feel your hairline/with traces of snow
Until my vision becomes blurry/until I can't breathe/let us be inseparable
If I can give up the whole world/at least there is you worth cherishing/and you being here/is the miracle of life
Maybe I can forget the whole world/I just don’t want to lose your news/The mole on your palm/I always remember it there
It's not easy for us/We can't help ourselves/I'm afraid that time is too fast/Not enough to look at you carefully
