After all, who lost whom: broken glass

Chapter 5 Princess Pingliu (1)
"Concubine Pingliu's surname is Ruan, her name is Linlang, and she is from Hangzhou... In the 20th year of Emperor Yao of the Qing Dynasty, she died of illness, and her son was named Luo."

It was as if someone was whispering these words in her ear, like a spell, Rong Yu couldn't fall asleep all night long, countless faces flew in front of her, all kinds of scars, knife wounds, sword wounds on their faces Injuries, burns...the face was lined up horizontally and vertically, dripping with bright red blood, ferocious, twisted...but suddenly they all turned into her own face again, Rong Yu screamed, those faces floating in the air came back again. Everything is hidden, leaving two black holes, watching her from a distance, the voice is still flat and without tone, but she can hear him clearly, he is saying: "Is the empress looking for the life of Princess Pingliu?" She waved her hand and said loudly : "No, no!"

Woke up with a start.

The moonlight was bright, shining on the corner of the clothes beside the bed, and it was dark.I couldn't help shivering, and looked up along the corner of the clothes, there were two black holes on the sallow skin.She thought she would faint, but she didn't, she heard herself asking in a very calm tone: "Who are you?"

The strange man seemed very satisfied with her reaction, and the corner of his mouth twitched—I don't know if this was his way of expressing "laughing".Rong Yu shrank back, but still looked directly at him, showing no intention of retreating."That's not important," said the weirdo.

Rong Yu then asked: "Then what is important?"

"Linlang."

This is the second time Rong Yu heard the word "Lin Lang", and suddenly he felt his chest stagnate. What kind of woman, how lonely and helpless her background was, how she was exiled in the capital, how she was pacified, was ignored in the history books. Yiwang Rongrong, how ambitious she climbed from a lowly luthier to the position of princess, how she made that bold and generous man take her seriously, and how she made Xin Yu, who was clean-eyed, fall in love at first sight, and in the next 20 years Keep reminiscing over the years, can't you forget?It was the beginning of a legend, but it finally disappeared, and no one mentioned it again—no one mentioned it?Rong Yu felt a chill in his heart, and suddenly thought: No one mentioned it again——Didn't dare, or couldn't?
Suddenly startled, her whole body turned cold, she couldn't help but wanted to yell, "No, I don't know, I don't want to know anything", she just couldn't yell out a word even though she thought about it.

"Don't you want to know about Princess Pingliu?" The tone of the weird man's words didn't change a bit, and it was so tempting that Rong Yu couldn't refuse, and she was powerless to refuse. She stared at him for a long time, and finally asked: "She—what kind of person is she?" A few words came out, and the strength of her whole body seemed to be drained. She thought repeatedly: Let me know—even if I die, I can be a sensible ghost.

If Xin Yu knew that she had learned about Lin Lang, would he kill her?Rong Yu thought of that jasper dagger that shone coldly, cold and gorgeous, like the color of moonlight.She said to herself: Yes, definitely will.

The weird man suddenly laughed and said, "Do you really want to know?"

Rong Yu didn't dare to look at his ferocious face, turned his head away, and reluctantly said: "Yes."

The strange man raised her chin with his fingers, and turned his face to face him: "Like, it's really like it." Rong Yu felt his fingers were as slippery as jelly, and felt fear in his heart, but he only dared to stare at him , silently.

He caressed her eyebrows with his hand, "You are the most like one of the concubines living in Cuihuju, no wonder even him...he is reluctant to kill you." Rong Yu remembered the eyebrows that Xin Yu had drawn for her at that moment. , so strong, heroic, and high-spirited, that face must be repeatedly described in his heart, so he can make a painting with his own hands.

The strange man raised his head slightly, and the moonlight poured in from the window like water. The woman slowly condensed in the beam of light, in Tsing Yi, with long hair, was heroic. He looked at her in a daze, "Junior Sister?"

Twenty years, like a legend.

Shuang Silin.Having never been to Shuangsilin means the same thing as having never been to the capital. Shuangsilin has the most mellow wine, the best food, and the most beautiful women, but the sum of these many "most" is not worth one name: Su Xinyue.

Su Xinyue is the top singer of Shuangsilin. Someone once asked Su Xinyue what is so good about her songs. The person who was asked was the young prime minister Qin You. At the age of 14, her poems were famous all over the world. When she was weak, she was awarded the number one champion by the emperor himself. Qin You, the young prime minister, is proficient in all poems and songs, is a young man who achieves ambition, and is a romantic and suave character, but he thought for a long time, but he couldn't describe it. He only quoted an ancient saying: "Three months around the beam , I don’t know the taste of meat.” It was a good story for a while, and Shuang Silin’s fame also rose to the sky.

At this time, the little prince Liu Yan was drinking in Mingyue Pavilion in Shuangsilin, he was the most disdainful temperament, but it was rare for his appearance to be the host, and Miss Su was willing to save face, so she became elegant.Just as Su Xinyue sang it word by word:

"Every year in the blue sea, may I ask for whom is the ice wheel full and short? When it blows a piece of autumn fragrance, it is as clear as snow. In the midst of sorrow, I hope for a good day and night, knowing that it is all sad. The only shadow is now, and it is worthy of weight, the old moon."

The characters are mellow, hanging at high places without being startled, and continuous at low places, with every twist and turn, everything is extremely tactful, making people want to be surprised and unable to stop.

Liu Yan seldom pays attention to this way, but now he hears it in his ears, he is indescribably happy, and he thinks in his heart, no wonder he comes to Shuangsilin every now and then, it really is not bad.In a flash, she looked at the singing girl with low brows and restrained face, her clear eyes were full, she occasionally settled down, she looked at her young face with a bit of infatuation, she couldn't help sighing, how outstanding he is, after all, his status is like Tian Yuan, if he thinks about it for a lifetime, he will It is wrong.

Sighed for a while, turned around to toast and drink, suddenly there was a burst of pipa from downstairs, as if randomly plucking a few single notes to try the strings, but it gave birth to some charm, indescribably moving, as if the strings were close to the heart. The lungs were pulled out, and the soul of the person was drawn away without making a fuss.Rao Su Xinyue, a master of music, can't help but get distracted, and can't help singing along with the tune. This singing is different from before. It was just a flower bud that has not been released before, but now it is a flower that is about to bloom. It is so perfect and graceful, that the people in the building are fascinated by it, thinking "this song should only exist in the sky".

After one sentence, the lingering sound is curled up, condensed but not scattered.

The young prime minister stood up, raised his glass and said, "Master downstairs, would you like to see me?"

But I saw a young man in Tsing Yi holding a dark red pipa and looking around downstairs, he couldn't see his eyebrows clearly from a distance, but he felt that his eyes were black and white, as clear as autumn water, and he couldn't help but feel flustered.Seeing many people looking at him, the young man asked timidly: "Can I come up?" His voice didn't raise his voice, but it fell into everyone's ears as clearly as a whisper, very comforting and comforting.

It was the people who were asking the question, but their eyes fell on Liu Yan. Liu Yan swallowed it with a half smile.The young ministers said in repeated voices: "Please!"

The young man in Tsing Yi looked at Liu Yan's expression, he was very hesitant.Liu Yan frowned for a while, and finally laughed, cursing: "You're here, why are you pretending? Come up." With just one word, the young man seemed to be pardoned, and there was a smile on his face, like a spring flower.The group of young masters looked at it without thinking: Could it be the stunning young man raised privately by the young prince?Because we all know that King Ping Yi is strict in running his family, although Liu Yan is a young prince, he comes to these places where he spends his days and nights less than ordinary princes and buddies, so he is all surprised.

Young Prime Minister Qin You said: "Thank you, little prince."

Liu Yan said with a smile: "You guys are so lucky, you... Popi, I usually ask for a song but I can't ask for it, but this time I taught you to listen to it. Let's play a water tune?" Yang smiled a little, a pair of eyebrows were particularly thick and beautiful, black as if dripping water, but said in his mouth: "I don't dare to disobey orders, but the prince said—" In the middle of speaking, he just looked at his master.

Liu Yan said: "Don't worry about it for a while—you've come all the time, don't you want to go without playing a song?"

The young man smiled lightly, leaning on the railing and said, "I'm afraid the villain's skills are clumsy, and he won't catch Sister Su's eyes."

Su Xinyue saluted and said, "My lord is too modest."

The young man in Tsing Yi looked at Su Xinyue intently, his face glowed, and said, "I heard about Sister Su's name a long time ago, I don't think my sister is not only famous in singing and dancing, but also has such a beautiful country." Su Xinyue said repeatedly: " Don't dare to be that", the young man smiled lightly, pointing like a wheel, his face was hidden behind the pipa, as if covered by a layer of veil, making it difficult for people to see clearly.

This song "Shui Tune" is different from the previous one. The previous "Pipa Immortal" only sounded thick and charming, like a woman's rouge, which is unavoidably lingering. It is as clear and bright as the moon, without a little smoke and dust, and all the people are silent when they hear it, thinking of the smoky scenery of the five lakes, like a boat that is not tied.

Just one song.

Before everyone came back to their senses, the young man had already put away his pipa, went to Liu Yan's side, and called softly: "Master—" Liu Yan turned his face and smiled, with a hint of connivance, and then got up to leave.The young minister said: "Unexpectedly, the young prince has such an elegant mood. He will definitely come to visit some other day. I hope that the young prince will not hesitate to give me advice." Liu Yan responded to him: "It's easy to say, easy to say." invite.

The young man in Tsing Yi walked a long way with Liu Yan, Liu Yan asked him: "Is it true that father is looking for me?" The young man lowered his eyebrows and said, "I know I can't hide it from my father." Liu Yan knocked on her, "Just look for me. Why are you so sneaky playing the pipa downstairs, attracting everyone's attention?" The young man said: "Is Shuangsilin a good place to go? Lin Lang doesn't want to ask the master to pay two months' money at a time, so how can I teach others? Live your life, Lord, be more considerate." Liu Yan said: "This mouth, I really don't know how it came about...I won't go around with you, just tell me, what's the matter?"

Linlang said: "Last night, Qingzhi Garden leaked water, which affected Ningyu Pavilion, and it turned out..."

"Ning Yuge...were you not here last night?" Lin Lang lowered her head even lower.Liu Yan seemed to think of something, stomped his feet and said, "Too bad, I wasn't here last night!"

Lin Lang glanced at him and said, "You've thought of it too." Liu Yan said, "Then you still trick me to go back, no, I have to find a place to avoid the limelight first."

Lin Lang looked up, "It's too late." Seeing Yiqi Juechen from a distance, it wasn't Lu Fei who was the commander of the guards of Prince Yi's Mansion.Lin Lang shrank back and said, "Master, you deal with it, Lin Lang goes first." Liu Yan grabbed her, gritted his teeth and said, "Where did you go last night?" Lin Lang smiled softly, making a little prince laugh Feeling numb, "Last night...didn't the master take Lin Lang to the Qin Mansion to play music?" Liu Yan screamed: "You wouldn't say the same to your father, would you?"

Lin Lang said: "How else—" Suddenly he cried out: "Oh——" Liu Yan's mind was divided, and when he turned his head, there was no shadow of Lin Lang.But he was not annoyed, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "You played tricks, don't blame me for tripping yourself."

That was the first time they met, he stood in a place where they could not see, thinking it was just a play by others, and he didn't know until many years later that it was his calamity.
