Yuan Meiren asked her maid to go to Yanmei Ren's courtyard and secretly find a shakuhachi.
She didn't dare to go to Yingliu Lake to play, thinking that they all liked to practice by the water. Most of the reason might be because the echo of the water waves would bring out the intonation and correct their playing skills.
The water area of the koi pond is not large and the water is shallow. Even if you fall in, you will not drown.
She came here with her shakuhachi.
Unexpectedly, after playing a song quietly, I felt dizzy.
I originally wanted to find a place to sit, but I felt that the stones by the pond were very cold, so I decided to go back and lie down first.
But I don’t know why, but I suddenly heard some tune, and it sounded extremely sad.
She was a little frightened. Could it be that there were other concubines practicing here?
I turned around and looked around but saw no one.
The lotus leaves in the pond have long since withered, and weeds are swaying on the rockery rocks. Where is the person?
The Imperial Guards came here once every half an hour, and she only came after calculating the time.
The tune is sad and resentful, and someone seems to be crying.
"Are you here? Don't leave!" A woman's voice sounded in her ears.
Yuan Meiren was timid and immediately panicked, holding on to the rockery and planning to leave quickly.
The woman's voice sounded again, "If you learn this tune, you can serve the emperor. Hahahaha, you will have all the glory and wealth in this life."
These few words were strange, but they spoke into Yuan Meiren's heart.
This is what she thought subconsciously in her heart.
"Go on and play a song, just a short one."
The sound continued, and Motobi couldn't help but pick up the Shakuhachi.
She was struggling.
"Just a short paragraph, a small paragraph." The woman's voice became extremely gentle, as if she was pleading.
Yuan Meiren finally blew for a while.
This time, she suddenly found that the tune became very pleasant. Even though she obviously pressed the wrong syllable, there was no discordant sound.
"Look, listen, can you play well? The emperor will definitely like it. If you want to play one more section, just play one more section." As if to seduce her, the female voice kept whispering. , as if right next to his ears.
There was no one around her, probably no one.
Yuan Meiren couldn't tell whether it was the swaying of the tree shadows caused by the blowing wind, or whether it was someone standing behind her.
I just kept thinking: Play one more section, play one more section, I can do it too.
"The Emperor likes the Shakuhachi tune the most, right? He told you that he can only sleep peacefully when he hears this tune. You are all practicing it, so practice it well."
Yuan Meiren started blowing again, and this time she found that she was blowing more smoothly.
"Look, aren't you very good? How could you have captured the emperor's heart before? There is still a chance now. They are all dead. Now you are the only one. The emperor only has you!" The woman's voice suddenly sounded. It became a bit harsh and mocking.
But Yuan Meiren couldn't tell clearly. She just felt more dizzy and couldn't even see the road ahead clearly.
The shakuhachi in his hand seemed to be getting bigger, and it was getting hotter and hotter, and he couldn't hold it tightly.
"In this world, love between men and women is fake. What you have to do is to win the favor of the emperor and get countless gold, silver and jewels so that you can live the rest of your life well?" The woman's voice suddenly became He asked the considerate Dundun to teach him, "You are already at your age, so don't think about having any love. You'd better get more gold. Look, the emperor is in front of you. He is coming towards you. Hurry up and greet him." Welcome him! Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!"
Yuan Meiren tried her best to open her eyes wide, but her eyes were filled with white mist.
However, at this moment, she had completely lost her judgment, and according to this woman's words, she rushed forward in a hurry...
It wasn't until she fell into the pond, drank a lot of cold water, and stepped on the mud at the bottom of the pond that she suddenly woke up and shouted for help urgently.
The water in the pond was not deep. After she regained her consciousness, she found that the water was only up to her waist. All she had to do was stabilize her body and stand up.
However, after such a flop and crawling out of the pond covered in mud, he was still seen by the passing Master Mu, who shouted loudly, which alerted the commander of the Forbidden Army Yuan Jianshuo and General Manager Zhang Duzhang.
Fortunately, no life was lost.
When Manager Zhang asked about the situation, she just said that she also wanted to show off at the Great Winter Banquet, so she came to the koi pond... but she was dizzy and fell in.
There was indeed some chaos in the palace due to preparations for the Great Winter Banquet.
They just sent someone to escort Yuan Meiren back to Luyuan's residence, and then left.
Zhang Du thought that he had to tell the queen about this matter, so he hurried to Tianyuan Palace where Yang Xianrong was staying to report the news.
What Yuan Meiren said was recognized by Zhang Du.
"The old slave was talking to Commander Yuan at the time. When he heard the voice, he ran over to take a look." Zhang Du bowed, "There was already thin ice on the other side of the pond, so the old slave just guessed at that time that maybe Yuan Meiren's foot slipped. Go down. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen..."
"Well, it's not easy for Mr. Zhang to run over in the first place. Don't blame yourself." Yang Xianrong stretched out his hand to help him. "You can sit down first, it's okay."
"Thank you, Queen." Zhang Du still stood aside, very polite.
Yang Xianrong didn't force it, and just asked Yuan Meiren: "How did you feel after playing the shakuhachi? It's not just dizziness, is there anything else?"
Yuan Meiren covered her heart and recalled, "When you start blowing, you will soon be immersed in it. Then, you will feel like you are floating in the air... mid-air, and then you will feel a little powerless, like you can't breathe. I feel angry and want to stop, but find that I can't stop at all. How can I put this? I already want to stop in my heart, but my fingers and lips are still moving. The shakuhachi seems to have magic power. It's like it's sucking me..."
"Is this how you felt when you played for the first time?" Yang Xianrong asked strangely, and Liu Yao even looked at her again.
"When I played the first part, I felt that I was in a great state today. Then when I played the second part, I felt that I could connect with the Shakuhachi... Empress, can you understand that feeling? It's like that tune. It will flow out according to the heart... I don't know how to describe it..." Yuan Meiren said and started to gesture.
Yang Xianrong took her hands and sighed softly, "No need to say more, I know that feeling, because I have also felt it."
