Chapter 36 "Introduction to the Toad Palace"

Early that morning, the inner city was Qishengfang.

In the early morning, Princess Luanmei played the piano in the garden. Not long after, a girl walked through the flowers and walked towards her: "Sister Princess?!"

The one who came to the eldest princess's mansion was Xiao Meng. She was now in the eldest princess's mansion, and she was named "Sword-Waiting Guard". In theory, she was the eldest princess' personal bodyguard and could naturally come in at will. In fact, for some well-known reasons, the servants in the house did not regard her as an ordinary female guard, and the eldest princess was also like her sisters.

Seeing Xiaomeng coming, Princess Luanmei held down the strings of the piano and said, "Sister Xiaomeng!"

Xiao Meng said: "Sister Princess, my brother asked me to bring you a poem!"

Princess Luanmei said happily: "Come and take a look!"

Xiao Meng took out the Shu note that wrote the new lyrics, Princess Luanmei took it, spread it out, and said happily: "This is the song from "The Inscription of Changong"!"

Xiao Meng said gigglingly: "My brother said, this was written by him for you. I would like it if you like it?"

Princess Luanmei's face turned slightly red, and she looked at the words on the paper over and over again, but she couldn't put it down.

At this time, a maid came to report: "Your Highness, Chun Jianli from Meiwutai came to ask for her."

Princess Luanmei said, "Let her come in!"

The maid left after her order, but Xiao Meng said in confusion: "Chun Jianli? Why did she come here?"

Princess Luanmei said, "Two days ago, Chun Jianli came to see me and confessed that she had stolen the sword dance of Thirteen Niang during the Lantern Festival, and said that she had apologized to Thirteen Niang. I asked Mingmei, and Mingmei said that there was indeed such a thing. Since she knew her mistake, I forgave her. In the past two days, she often came to play the piano and talk about music with me, and her unique insights were rare. We had a long talk yesterday afternoon, and it was not until my mother sent someone to let me enter the palace, and we stopped. We had agreed to talk again today, but we didn't expect her to arrive so early."

Xiao Meng thought to herself: "The knife I cut on Chun Jianli's back is not light. She has only been back to Meiwutai for a few days, so why is she jumping around?" She thought to herself: "Brother said that she is probably a Zoroastrian, just because now we are the only clue of Zoroastrianism, which is only her that she can save her life. She has found the eldest princess sister now. Is it really just for playing the piano or has another purpose?"

In a while, Chun Jianli was already taken in by the maid and bowed to the eldest princess Luanmei, "Jianli has seen His Highness the Princess!" and said with a smile: "So sister Xiao Meng is here too?"

On the surface, Xiaomeng and Chun Jianli only met twice, one at the Prince of Luzhong, and the other on the third day of the third month, by the river outside the city. Although Xiaomeng helped Liuxia Jiange stand out in the palace of Luzhong, there was no grudge between the two... Although this was when Chun Jianli almost killed her "double-sword filial daughter" Ning Xiaomeng.

Since the other party took the initiative to show his goodwill, Xiao Meng also returned the ceremony. Chun Jianli said: "Miss Xiao Meng came to the palace of His Highness the Princess, but Mr. Ning made new words?"

Since then, Ningjiang wrote "The sky connects clouds and waves and fog in Kongshan" in the December Drum Song, and "writes lyrics" with popular music, and gradually became popular. Especially a few days ago, Qin Hongyun, a famous prostitute from Yuehu, became famous for her song "Red lotus fragrance and lingering jade mat autumn". She was famous in Beijing. All the talented and beautiful people in the capital enjoyed writing lyrics.

The poetry world, which has almost reached a dead end, has become a new atmosphere because of the popularity of lyrics. Although there are also a large number of old and stubborn "lyrics" and kitsch, it is difficult to enter the elegant hall, etc., it cannot stand the city's talented men and beautiful people's preferences for it. Famous prostitutes in the romantic places have also asked people to help write new lyrics, and various ancient songs have also been rejuvenated because of the popularity of lyrics.

However, although talented men and beautiful people wrote lyrics and composed music and showed their talents and knowledge, Qin Hongyun's new lyrics "Red lotus fragrance and lingering jade matte autumn" written by the ancient song "Yi Jian Plum" are unique. Although no one knows that Qin Hongyun's lyrics were actually copied to her by Ning Jiang.

Repay kindness and revenge with revenge! Ning Jiang and Qin Hongyun had no friendship. At that time, Qin Hongyun risked the danger of offending the prince of the county prince's mansion, Bao Qing and others to inform him. If Ning Jiang had not killed Bao Qing, Bao Qing, who had found her, would have never let her go.

As a reward for Qin Hongyun's secretly venting news that night, Ning Jiang copied the famous poet Li Qingzhao from another world, "Red lotus fragrance and stolen jade mat Qiu". Anyway, he couldn't use this poem. After all, he, a man, could not write a sentence like "Relaxed clothes and go to the orchid boat alone". Qin Hongyun really stood out from famous prostitutes from all over the world with this song.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, "writing lyrics" is still a new thing. At present, the only thing that can compete with Qin Hongyun's "Red lotus fragrance and lingering jade matte autumn" is Ningjiang's song "The sky connects clouds and fog, and the fog". Although both poems were copied by Ningjiang by Li Qingzhao, the others were of course unaware of it.

Later, Princess Luanmei asked Xiaomeng to ask her brother to help her write some new lyrics, and Ningjiang copied a few more songs. Although they were not as good as "The sky connects clouds and fog" and "The fragrance of red lotus roots and leaves jade mattresses", they were also talented masterpieces. As Luanmei sang, it further helped him and promoted his talent.

At present, the beautiful people in the capital are all happy with the lyrics of Ning Caizi by singing Qin Hongyun. This situation is generally like in another world. The trend of "writing lyrics" has just begun to prevail, and everyone is competing to sing new lyrics by Liu Yong. But everyone knows that Ning Caizi only wants to write lyrics for the eldest princess Luanmei, so everyone stares at the eldest princess's mansion, waiting for the eldest princess to extract new lyrics from Ning Caizi.

As for Chun Jianli, Ning Xiaomeng suspected that she had ulterior motives to approach Princess Luanmei, which really misunderstood her.

Although he was humiliated by Ning Jiang at the Minister of Personnel's Mansion, Chun Jianli also made people see her amazing piano skills. Jianwu is comparable to Duan Shisanniang, and her zither skills are almost inferior to Princess Luanmei, which is both outstanding in piano and sword. The "No. 1 Beauty in the Capital" is worthy of its name. Especially Duan Shisanniang is getting older and her popularity is no longer the same as before. Princess Luanmei has a special identity after all, and is the emperor's own sister. In addition, it seems that she has the unique attribute of "the groom died on the day of marriage", only Ning Jiang dares to flirt with her.

Although Chun Jianli is both good at piano and swords, and is known as the "No. 1 Beauty in the Capital", Jianwu was suppressed by an "unknown mysterious girl" in the palace of Prince Zhong County. Although her piano skills are excellent, the current trend of writing lyrics in the capital is rising, and it is not enough to have good songs or not good lyrics.

Of course, she could not sing Qin Hongyun's "Red Lotus Fragrance and Jade Mask Qiu", but the new lyrics that are currently popular in the capital are mostly mediocre, except for the new works of the No. 1 talented man in Tongzhou, which were leaked from the Princess's Mansion and the new works of the No. 1 talented man in Tongzhou.

As a "beautiful woman" who was humiliated by the number one talented man in Tongzhou at the banquet, Chun Jianli certainly couldn't sing his new lyrics.

But for some reason, since he was rescued by Ning Jiang that day, he has always been concerned about him. On the one hand, he was moved by his almost meticulous and whole-hearted care after she was seriously injured. On the other hand, his words "disgusting" are still as if they are in his ears. Whenever he thinks about it, he is embarrassed and embarrassed.

However, she wanted to not care about Ning Jiang, but somehow she cared more and more. She wanted to be grateful to him and repay his life-saving grace, but she could not forget his humiliation to herself.

I wanted to hate him and blame him, but I felt inexplicably that this person was completely different from those playboys who only knew how to surround her like bees and butterflies, but only knew how to spend time and drink but not have many real talents. Although she was unique, she had real talents and knowledge. Although she was arrogant, hateful and arrogant, she didn't know how to pity the flowers and jade, but when she took care of others... she could be so gentle.

It was precisely because she was holding this kind of five-flavor bottle and even she couldn't figure it out. On the one hand, she vowed not to sing Ning Caizi's new lyrics. On the other hand, whenever Ning Jiang had a new work leaked, she would involuntarily copy it, lying on the bed, savoring it all, only to feel the exquisiteness everywhere, and every sentence was read, and aftertaste it endlessly.

The reason why I came to the eldest princess's house was that although she borrowed the name of talking about the piano and talking about music, deep down, she would also ask herself in a low voice, is it really just because of this? Or is it because I just want to get close to the water and get the moon first... can I see his new lyrics earlier?

Even Chun Jianli couldn't figure out the wonderful and indescribable feeling, so how could Xiao Meng understand it?

Seeing Chun Jianli making excuses to approach the eldest princess sister who wanted to steam and braise her brother, she naturally suspected that she had ulterior motives.

Ning Xiaomeng will be here, Chun Jianli doesn't know, but somehow, after seeing Xiaomeng, she couldn't help but want to please her. The reason was difficult for her to explain. Ning Xiaomeng was wary because of her deliberate plea... You said that my brother called her "disgusting", and I even cut her. When she saw me, she smiled so sweetly... There must be a ghost behind this, right?

It is impossible to be happy because she is a masochist and is scolded and chopped?

Chun Jianli saw Shu Jianli in the eldest princess's hand at first sight, and a strange wave appeared in her heart. Her smile remained unabated and said, "Your Highness, this is..."

Princess Luanmei whispered: "This is the lyrics of the new work of Prince Ningjiang leaning against the tune of "Chan Gong Yin"!"

Seeing Ning Xiaomeng here, the eldest princess was holding Shu Jian again. Chun Jianli had guessed that although she wanted to pretend not to care at all, her eyes suddenly lit up. She pretended to be careless and said casually: "It turns out to be Ning Caizi's new word. I wonder... Can Jianli look at it?"

Princess Luanmei knew that there was a grudge between Chun Jianli and Ning Jiang, especially Chun Jianli was in the capital. She wanted to pursue her aristocratic young masters and the wealthy young masters wanted. Ning Jiang's two-word criticism of her made countless famous children dissatisfied with her. Fortunately, Chun Jianli seemed to like lyrics and music. Although she had a feud with Ning Jiang, the ones they talked about most in her mansion were still Ning Jiang's poems and lyrics.

She wanted to resolve the conflict for the two of them, so she smiled and handed over the Shu Jian.

Ning Xiaomeng naturally didn't take it seriously. She really didn't understand the lyrics. She only knew that the brother wrote could be used to sing, and it seemed to be very powerful. In fact, at this moment, her thoughts were not all here. The reason why she came to the eldest princess sister's house early in the morning was actually due to her brother's explanation.

Not only her, Qin Mo, Qin Ze, Qin Kan, Qin Wuyan, and Qin Xiaoyaer, they were all either left the city or appeared in crowded places. The brother said that this was called "absent evidence". The last time my brother did this, there was a major case of dismemberment in the capital. I wonder what my brother wanted to do today...

Chun Jianli spread out Shu Jian, read it carefully, and read it word by word, and was surprised and happy. This poem is probably compared with Ning Jiang's own "The sky connects the clouds and the fog and the morning mist" written by Qin Hongyun, and Qin Hongyun's "Red lotus fragrance and the Autumn in Jade Mask". Its agility is even better than that, and it is a masterpiece that can be passed down from generation to generation.

After reading it once, I couldn't let go of it. I couldn't help but reread it several times. The joy in my heart was really indescribable.

Until he noticed the gazes on both sides, he looked up reluctantly, and saw the eldest princess looking at her in confusion. Ning Xiaomeng tilted her head and stared at her with wide eyes as if she was looking at new things. Her face suddenly became hot, and Hongxia inexplicably flew on her cheeks...

***

At the same time, a high slope outside the city.

Qin Mo and Qin Kan were looking up together and looking at the same thing in front of them.

Qin Kan spread out the drawings in his hand and carefully studied all the details. Qin Chuan's five meanings learned differently. Although he was known as the "Ground-Drunk", in addition to the art of drilling the ground, he actually learned the art of the wooden armor mechanism handed down by his adopted father.

However, the things in front of them have nothing to do with their adoptive father, and they are all created according to Ning Jiang's design.

Qin Mo also looked at the slightly huge thing and said, "Can this thing really fly?"

Qin Kan said: "I don't really know much about the aerodynamics that the master said. The materials and shapes are made according to his design, especially the thin wings on both sides. This is something that was finally created by Tianyu Shining Light. Some small parts inside were invited to help with the Ganjiangmen who were good at casting. They didn't know what we were doing. They made them all disassembled parts. Today is the first time they assembled."

Qin Mo said: "Then fly and take a look?"

Qin Kan said: "This...theory...is no problem. The master is a scholar. There is only the golden house in the book...the things he designed must be no problem."

Qin Mo said: "Then fly quickly!"

Qin Kan said: "Besides, isn't there any record of the ancients? A Mohist master who was proficient in wooden armor techniques made a wooden bird that could fly on the beam for three days and three nights..."

Qin Mo said: "I know, I know...so you fly quickly!"

Qin Kan hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss, you said, this time, he asked us to leave the city in front of the soldiers guarding the city, or appear in a crowded place. What do you want to do? The last major case of corpse was really done by the master? But he was obviously in the tribute court..."

"That's not what you should ask," Qin Mo said, "Fly for me!"

"Forget it, forgot!" Qin Kan gritted his teeth and walked forward. "The wind blew and the Yishui cold, and the hero will never return once he left... Boss, what if I fall..."

"Don't worry, I will collect your body!"

"Hey, I mean I must save me," the man shouted, "Don't give up treatment for me directly, okay?"
