Chapter 28 Soft Moon Bends the Bow
After a few more people received rewards, Long Xinyu was surprised to see the Prime Minister Tang Jiao sitting opposite him slowly walking towards her.
At the birthday banquet, could it be possible to walk freely? Long Xinyu quickly looked around, but everyone was sitting in their seats in an orderly manner!
She sat up, took out her armed temperament, and glared coldly at Tang Jiao, who was walking slowly. He who comes is not kind, and he who is kind will not come!
Sure enough, Tang Jiao walked to a position not too far away from Long Xinyu, saluted the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the general's daughter is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially the piano art, which shocked the Queen Mother as a talented woman, but she is very talented.
It's a pity that she has been at the border all the time. I have always wanted to ask her for advice, but I have never been able to do so. On the occasion of the emperor's birthday, why not let me sing a song with that sister Xinyu, one to cheer up the emperor, and the other to do the same.
What is my daughter’s wish?"
When the emperor heard this, he also thought of Long Xinyu, the woman he was about to give the title of princess. Although that was the Queen Mother's intention, he also liked the child very much, so he immediately agreed to Tang Jiao's request.
Long Xinyu has a black line on her head. This is called being shot while lying down!
Looking back at Tang Jiao, Long Xinyu thought carefully for a long time. It seemed that she had never offended this prime minister's daughter before?
But the matter had come to this, and after thinking about it again, Long Xinyu had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk on stage.
Someone had already placed two guqins on the stage.
Upon seeing this, Tang Jiao, who was opposite, raised her chin haughtily and sat down next to one of the pianos. Her provocative eyes glanced at Long Xinyu from time to time.
Long Xinyu had never been exposed to Guqin. In modern times, she only had a superficial understanding of Guzheng, but there was still a big difference between Guqin and Guzheng.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Now she could only put her hope in the remaining memory of this body, hoping that she could live up to her expectations! If she couldn't defeat Tang Jiao, Long Xinyu had already thought of her words, so she said
After I arrived at the border, I never played the piano again due to homesickness, so it was understandable that my piano skills were lagging behind.
Didn’t he say that he was proficient in playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? Except for the piano, Long Xinyu had studied traditional Chinese painting in modern times. Even though he didn’t have the mood and painting style of the original Long Xinyu, he was indeed proficient in painting skills!
Nie Shao, on the other hand, likes Go. He has been forced to play the game for several years, and he must be no worse than the modern ancients!
After thinking about it, he felt somewhat confident, so he sat down and slowly placed his hands on the guqin.
Seeing this, Tang Jiao took the lead in plucking the strings, and the music sounded like flowing water.
I have to admit that Tang Jiao does have the capital to put her piano skills to use.
Long Xinyu sighed and began to pluck the strings with her fingers. She wanted to rely on her super memory to follow Tang Jiao's music. Unexpectedly, as soon as her fingers came into contact with the strings, there was a buzz in her mind, and everything
All kinds of memories of learning piano skills came flooding back.
She couldn't help but pause, and Tang Jiao's disdainful snort came from beside her.
Then, Long Xinyu flipped her wrist, as if these piano skills had already been integrated into her own blood. Like instinct, a higher-pitched tune slowly flowed out from the strings in Long Xinyu's hand, like a clear spring in the mountains.
It was sweet, as fresh as the jungle after the rain, as delicate as the fragrance of spring flowers, and with the satisfaction of autumn harvest. For a while, even Long Xinyu himself was immersed in the sound of his own piano!
The piece of music played by Tang Jiao next to her became dim. No matter how hard she played, it could not cover up the sound of the piano in Long Xinyu's hand, which was like the breath of nature.
At the end of the song, Tang Jiao's face was extremely ugly. She was very confident in her piano skills. She thought that no matter how good Long Xinyu's piano skills were, they would not be much different from her at most. However, she never expected that Long Xinyu's piano skills would be the same as hers.
Xin Yu's piano skills are so outstanding, completely different from Beijing's style!
As everyone knows, after Long Xinyu arrived at the border, because E Niang waited for Amma every day, she became lovesick. In order to relieve her mother's longing, she played the piano to relieve E Niang's boredom every day, and learned various styles of music for a long time, especially
Almost all the tunes that are close to nature outside the Great Wall were adapted into guqin tunes by Long Xinyu.
How can the music produced in this tiny area of the capital compare to the vast artistic conception of Border Gate?
When the song ended, the whole place was silent, with lingering sounds lingering.
"Okay! Okay! This piano skill has reached this level! She is indeed my favorite Princess Xinyu! Here comes someone!" The emperor shouted happily. Upon seeing this, the eunuch beside him immediately offered the gift he had already written.
Imperial decree, read:
"By God's blessing, Long Qingshan led his troops to guard the border for thirty years. With great achievements and hard work, he was recalled to the capital and given the title of General of the State. He was given ten acres of fertile land and a thousand taels of gold. From now on, he will go to court and lead the emperor's affairs. Long Qingshan's daughter Long Xin
Yu, a virtuous and virtuous person, has specially bestowed upon Princess Xin Yu the title. I appreciate this!"
Long Qingshan immediately stood up and thanked the emperor for his kindness together with Long Xinyu.
Everyone also congratulated him one after another.
Only Tang Jiao walked back to her position with a distorted face. She had no idea that not only did her move fail to hit Long Xinyu, but it actually made her face even more shameless!
She looked at Tang Rao with aggrieved eyes, hoping that her sister would be able to vent her anger, but she didn't expect that Tang Rao just smiled at her and shook her head. Could it be that she wanted to be patient for a while? After thinking about it, Tang Jiao decided to be honest.
He sat back in his seat!
When Long Xinyu saw that Tang Jiao had walked back, she stood up and wanted to return to her seat.
As soon as I took a step, I heard a gentle and graceful woman in the audience shout softly: "Wait a minute!"
As Long Xinyu and Long Qingshan finished thanking each other and accepting congratulations from everyone, the venue just fell silent. This soft and charming voice, which was repeated over and over again, immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Next to the seat of the fifth prince, there was also a woman who was wearing clothes that were almost the same as the fifth prince and showed her identity as the direct descendant of Fujin. She stood up and moved delicately and delicately towards Long Xinyu.
.
When she came to the center of the stage, she first gave Long Xinyu a weak smile, then gave the emperor a blessing and said: "Emperor Ama, I heard that Princess Xinyu learned the skills of a general after arriving at the border.
My concubine is not talented in martial arts. I would like to learn some archery skills from Princess Xinyu..."
Hearing this, Long Xinyu couldn't help but shiver deeply, and her whole body was filled with aversion!
The reason why Long Xinyu hates the cold is because of the woman who speaks, no matter from the voice as soft and sticky as glutinous rice, or from the appearance that looks soft and neat, with a pair of beautiful eyes shining brightly, and the shallow waist.
, I can’t even tell that she knows anything about archery...
Archery seems to be completely different from the woman in front of me!
By the way, archery... Long Xinyu really hasn't had much experience with this thing. What she is best at is her marksmanship. However, it is impossible for her to give up just now.
Facing the woman in front of her who was so weak that her waist seemed like she could break it, it was even more impossible for her to surrender without a fight!
However, the emperor and the others obviously knew that this woman was good at archery, so they nodded and waved people to put bows and arrows on the targets and place them one by one.
Long Xinyu also played with archery equipment in modern times. However, the entire bow of modern archery is very delicately made. It not only has a special gap for the arrow, but also has a sight.
But the bow handed to her by the young eunuch at this moment was only Gong Yuxuan. Looking at the quiver, Long Xinyu felt a little numb.
Not far away, the weak direct descendant Fujin held a bow in his hand, smiled at Long Xinyu, and said softly: "Princess, Rouyue will take action now!"
Oh, it turns out her name is Rouyue! She really lives up to her name!
However, Long Xinyu could see that Rou Yue's smile was very innocent and harmless, as if she just wanted to compete with her in archery. But, who created this situation of "acquiring the martial arts of a general"?
False rumors? Long Xinyu didn't believe it. In less than a month before she went to battle on behalf of her father, news from the border would spread to the capital!
Unless someone in the group who returned together leaked the matter, after all, neither she nor Long Qingshan thought of keeping the matter sealed, nor did they warn the soldiers or the returning servants.
Long Xinyu hadn't finished her emotion when she saw Rou Yue's slender little arm gently pulled, her bow filled with mystery, and a sharp arrow flew out, hitting the target!
Even though Long Xinyu was worried at the moment, she couldn't help but admire her. What a good archery skill!
I never thought that such a weak woman could be good at archery...
"Princess, it's your turn!" Rou Yue interrupted Long Xinyu's daze, pointing nonchalantly toward the quiver with her white and tender onion-tip fingers.
Long Xinyu had no choice but to draw an arrow, put on the bow, and draw it full!
As soon as the Xuan Zhang opened, Long Xinyu felt an overwhelming force. She could hardly control the body. She had to grit her teeth and hold on for a few seconds, aim like a gun and let go!
When the arrow flew close to the target, its strength weakened slightly, the angle lowered a bit, and with a whoosh, it pierced into the ring slightly below the bullseye!
The people present suddenly buzzed and sighed.
Not far away, Tong Luoyang's eyes flickered. He raised the cup on the table and took a sip. His brief encounter with Long Xinyu this morning made him have some changes in his view of this lady. In the capital,
Not many women would give up playing chess, calligraphy and painting to learn martial arts.
He has never liked those coy ladies, but when he met Long Xinyu's straightforward temperament, he felt a sense of enlightenment. At this moment, he suddenly took a huge interest in Long Xinyu's archery skills.
