Chapter 44: A Night in Chang'an


"Wow!"

Rows of fireworks shot out all around the ice rink.

The color of rubies was particularly dazzling in the night sky.

They gathered in the sky in the center of the ice rink, and then turned into stars and scattered down.

"Ah!"

During the banquet, there were two or three delicate children's surprised voices rising and falling.

The scattered fireworks that should have dissipated seemed to be attached to the woman in the ice rink, flickering on and off, outlining the beautiful figure of the woman on the ice.

At this time, Zhu Rui was secretly hiding in the distance.

Seeing this moment, he was relieved.

It seemed that half of the success was achieved.

The crisp drumbeat of "Donglong" seems to wake up the sleeping air on the field.

The flickering light on Haoyue's body echoes the braziers set up at the four corners of the ice rink.

The orange flames set off the crystal clear white moonlight on Haoyue's body, as if Like the fairy dancing alone in the cold moon palace, sad and desolate, but still with a trace of hope.

That cracking sound was like a sharp knife, tearing apart Haoyue's cold clothes, revealing her fierce and vigorous heart, with a little wildness and a little determination, like a broken silver bottle, bursting out a gushing The slurry is out of control.

All the dance moves for this dance were prepared by Haoyue herself.

Zhu Rui didn't give any advice and didn't even watch her dance the whole dance.

Seeing Haoyue's spinning figure on the ice and the fluorescent ribbons dancing around her body, while the colorful rotating light balls on the sidelines created a dynamic atmosphere for the entire ice rink, Zhu Rui returned to a modern concert scene in a trance.

Although It was much simpler, but she seemed to feel that the distance between herself and modernity was getting closer.

When the flying colorful sticks flew into the air with the strength of Haoyue's arm, drawing a gorgeous wavy line in the dark night sky, the real dance had just begun.

Haoyue, who has taken off her colorful clothes and is dressed in plain clothes, looks weak and delicate in the thin air of the twelfth lunar month, doubly beautiful.

She was spinning and exploring, so thin and helpless.

Suddenly, the drums beat thunderously, the hoofbeats sounded, the horns neighed, and there were many banners.

The flags, each foot high, were beating fiercely in the wind, making a terrifying sound.

They surrounded the ice rink, getting closer and closer to the bright moon. , press closer, as if if she advances even a little bit, she will be crushed.

The two armies were fighting, and no one had time to pay attention to a helpless and humble woman.

She was anxious, she was frightened, and she fell on the ice in panic.

The next second, just when she thought she was certain to die under the iron hoof, a black streak appeared.

A shadow flashed past, and a thin whip wrapped around her waist, leading her away from the chaotic battlefield.

The sound of drums and horns was gone, and the lights of swords and swords were dimmed.

Everything just now seemed like a terrible dream, but the resolute figure in the distance silently confirmed that everything happened.

On the other side of the river far away from the banquet, a group of instrumental music and a group of female vocal harmonies had already been arranged on the bamboo basket.

The cold tunes and distant singing floated from the shore into the distance.

Turning around and leaving, Zhu Rui didn't even look at the field again.

"Life is like this, life is like this."

As he walked back, Zhu Ji inadvertently hummed, and the graceful figure, one green and one white, seemed to appear in front of him again.

"Hello, Miss Zhu Rui."

A palace servant who had retired passed by Zhu Rui and said hello to Zhu Rui.

Zhu Rui responded casually, caught a glimpse of the red clothes in the hands of the palace servant, and said, "The one Miss Haoyue just wore."

"Girl, that's right.

I'm planning to take it back."

Seeing Zhu Rui asking, the palace man stopped and said.

"Give it to me.

I'll take it back later."

Seeing that the bamboo basket was already reaching out, the palace man seemed to hesitate and handed it over.

"Go."

The palace man responded and left.

Before I knew it, I had walked quite a distance, and there were few people here.

Somehow, I just saw that bright red color, and by some strange coincidence, I stopped the clothes.

Zhu Rui waved her hand and put Haoyue's bright red dress on her body without even tying the belt.

"It turns out that the colorful flowers are blooming everywhere, like this, they are all abandoned by the ruined wells and ruined buildings.

No matter how beautiful the sky is, it will be a pleasure to visit someone's home.

Flying in the morning and evening, clouds and green pavilions, raindrops and wind, smoke and waves painting boats, Jinping people are so special It’s such a cheap time to look at it.”

I didn’t like Kun Opera very much.

At that time, I always felt that listening to it was too irritating, so I could only know this one classic piece.

I never thought that it would be like this today.

I really feel too old.

I stroked my sleeves.

Kui curled up his lips silently and then took off his clothes.

Returning to the yard where he changed clothes, Zhu Rui originally wanted to go back to the room where Haoyue changed clothes and put away his clothes, but he felt that there seemed to be some commotion in the yard.

Returning to the house, he summoned the North Korean palace maid next to Haoyue for questioning.

She learned that when Haoyue went to Kangxi to receive the reward, she actually asked for a marriage in front of the prince, ministers and the Korean envoys.

You guessed it, it's Qibele.

The North Korean palace maid seemed to be very anxious, fearing that Haoyue would be blamed by Kangxi for this.

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, she thought she wanted Zhu Rui to help Haoyue intercede.

Zhu Rui did not respond to her.

Haoyue should have expected the worst outcome from the moment she decided to take this step.

If nothing happened, everything would be fine.

If something happened, even if there were thousands of mouths to help talk about it, everything would still happen.

It seemed that Kangxi was in a good mood today, so he got married immediately.

For a while, Qibele, the most unknown among the princes, became the center of attention.

Speaking of which, Zhu Rui was still a little puzzled.

He and Si Beile had gossiped about his brothers before.

When talking about Qi Beile, Si Beile said that Qi Beile was extremely stubborn.

Kangxi thought that he had some illness and treated his son.

He was extremely tolerant, and always had Qibele's thoughts in mind in everything.

This time, Kangxi didn't even say hello, and just handed him a foreign daughter-in-law.

Qibele actually agreed without saying a word.

The imperial decree came down three days later, and Zhu Rui was summoned back to the imperial court by an oral order on the night of the banquet.

She didn't even have time to say goodbye to Haoyue and Xiaoci, so she only asked the North Korean maid next to Haoyue to bring a message to Haoyue, saying I am waiting for her matchmaking wine.

"I haven't seen you anywhere tonight."

Kangxi was practicing calligraphy at the desk and said casually.

Zhu Rui was waiting on the pen and ink at the side, and without stopping, he replied: "My servant is waiting at the back, so that Your Majesty can see the dance of Qifan Fujin, who is beautifully dressed and dancing gracefully."

Kangxi chuckled, put down his pen and looked at the bamboo basket and said: "The clothes look good, but when it comes to appearance and dancing skills, I'm afraid they are nothing in front of you."

Zhu Rui took a step back and said, "Your Majesty's ridiculous compliments are really embarrassing to me.

I am timid.

Don't you want me to be flattered, restless, and have trouble sleeping and eating?"

"Come on, I haven't seen you in a while, and you are still so smart with your talk."

Kangxi pointed at the bamboo basket, stood up from the desk, walked to the octagonal table and sat down.

The bamboo basket also came forward, put on another cup of tea, handed it to Kangxi's hand, and said with a smile: "I thank the emperor for the compliment."

After taking a sip of tea, Kangxi said: "I'm not curious why I transferred you back in advance."

"Your Majesty has your own plans.

All I have to do is listen to His Majesty's wishes.

I'm curious about what they are doing."

Seeing Kangxi pouting, Zhu Ji pretended to be aggrieved and said, "I am a little palace maid, and I don't have enough brains to begin with.

If you are still curious about this or that, slave, aren’t you just making things difficult for yourself?”

"There are many maids around me, but there are really not many who are as fine as you."

Kangxi sighed.

Seeing that Kangxi was sincerely making fun of himself today, Zhuji pouted and said: "The emperor called the slaves back at night.

It turns out that he lacked fun and was taking advantage of the slaves."

Kangxi smiled and said: "I'm tired, please settle down."

"Yes."

Zhu Rui went to the door and gave instructions, then returned to Kangxi's side.

Not long after, the maids who were washing and undressing came in.

Zhu Rui's current rank meant that there was no need to intervene.

"Lazy girl," Kangxi said to Zhu Rui seemingly dissatisfied.

Hearing this, Zhu Rui almost laughed out loud and hurriedly stepped forward to replace the palace maid who was undressing Kangxi.

When unbuttoning, Kangxi seemed to ask casually: "After the New Year, we are already eighteen, right?"

Zhu Rui didn't know why Kangxi suddenly asked about his age, so he just thought he had nothing to chat with.

He took off his belt and handed it to the palace maid aside.

He raised his head and smiled at Kangxi and said, "As for the emperor, after the New Year, he will be eighteen." ” "Already eighteen, eighteen."

Kangxi raised his head and murmured, "If you don't pay attention, I have kept you for so long that I almost delayed you."

Zhu Rui's heart tightened.

He didn't know whether Kangxi suddenly remembered it or if he was really thinking about it.

He still smiled and said: "I like to serve the emperor, how can I say it's a delay?

Besides, I have only been here a few days." , as soon as we get started, is the emperor going to drive this slave away?"

"You're a big girl now, it's time to make your own plans."

Kangxi nodded Zhu Rui's forehead and said.

"I'm a palace maid.

She didn't leave the palace until she was twenty-five years old.

There are still seven or eight years to go.

What are you planning to do so early?"

She handed the mouthwash and said with a smile.

"This is easy to handle.

You have been with me for so long.

I will guide you to a good marriage.

I will even buy a dowry for you.

When the time comes, you will get married gracefully."

After applying a hot towel, Kangxi's face glowed red.

"Your Majesty."

Zhu Rui took Kang Xi's towel and pouted at Kang Xi.

Seeing this, Kangxi smiled and said: "I'm not happy that I have so many talents, but you girl didn't like any of them."

"Your Majesty, you see what you said, no matter how many talents you have around you, they are still in the court, and the servants are serving in the harem, where can you see them?"

This Kangxi, isn't this kidding her?

"The young men walking around in the harem are the most outstanding talents in the Qing Dynasty."

Kangxi seemed to say something casually, which made Zhuji completely understand that he was sending him to his own son's home.

It was not easy for Kangxi to give up this idea for the time being.

After Zhu Rui helped Kangxi lie down, he returned to his room.

Sitting down and thinking about it carefully, Zhu Rui suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

He didn't feel anything just now, but now he thinks about it, if Kangxi insisted and pointed him out on the spot, wouldn't the game be over?

Shivering, Zhu Rui felt that sometimes, it is still necessary to "cherish life and stay away from Kangxi" :
