  "Xiao Lianzi's 'Eight Husbands at the Door' is in the PK of Qidian Female Frequency, please support Xiao Lianzi with your pink tickets, Xiao Lianzi is very grateful. This is also Xiao Lianzi's last new book for 2009, haha! Afterwards, I will return to the supernatural fantasy route, hehe. Wishing everyone a happy New Year!"

  On the beautiful carpet is a crane with pine, on the table are exquisite melons and fruits. Xiao Ruo stands beside me, to my left sit Ni Yu and Chu Yi; to my right sit Nan Gong Qiu Yue and Chun Yu.

  Monosyllabic surnames sit on the left, polysyllabic surnames sit on the right, Little Nine is in the imperial palace, Hou Xian goes out to play.

  After that day, I finally learned that the place Hou Xian often went to was actually Hua Le's Flower House. Feng Qingya said not to provoke Hou Xian, lest he be turned upside down, as Hou Xian was the most daring and free-spirited person among the three husbands and four concubines.

  For some reason, I kind of envy him.

  "Li Ge Gongzi has arrived." Xiao Ruo softly exclaimed, and I looked far away to see a young boy pushing that wheelchair. It turned out that the disabled person I saw that night was Li Ge: the so-called number one beauty in the world!

  In a patch of green shade, as if a white cloud had floated in, the gradually blue-colored long shirt fluttered vaguely among the bamboo leaves.

  His long hair was combed up with a high bun, leaving two strands hanging down beside his temples. Those two loose strands had natural curls and a large jade comb was tucked behind his head. His calm face was proud and noble, with clean eyebrows, clear eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin lips that were full of sex appeal. Indeed, in terms of appearance, he far surpassed others.

  Then I looked at Nan Gong Qiuyue beside me. He was looking at Lige, and he probably felt my gaze, so he turned his face to me and smiled.

  Nan Gong Qiuye's face didn't have the distinctive expressions that other people had, such as Chu Yue's calmness, Yuan Chen's gentleness, Li Ge's pride, or Chun Yu's flattery. He was just so ordinary, with ordinary joys and sorrows, but it was precisely this common expression that made me feel close to him and have a good impression of him. This good impression came from how pleasing he was to look at.

  "What's wrong with you?" Nangong Qiuyue asked me in confusion, I smiled and said: "So he is Lige, the rumored number one beauty in the world, but now that I've seen him, he's nothing special."

  "What? Madam, Li Ge Gongzi is indeed the most handsome man in the world. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to marry him off."

  "Really?" I glanced at Lí Gē, who had already been pushed to the edge of the crowd. His clear and cold gaze was fixed on my face, and I felt a little shocked because in that gaze, a hint of hatred suddenly flashed by, but it quickly disappeared into his calm and collected eyes.

  She looked at Nangong Qiuyue with confusion again: "He seems to hate me? Why?"

  Just as Nangong Qiuyue was about to answer me, Xiao Ruo suddenly handed over an apple: "Madam, please have some apple!"

  Apple... It seems like this is another secret that can't be told.

  I raised an eye and took a glance at Xiaoyao, Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes and smiled. I sneered and took a big bite of the apple: "Xiaoyao is indeed getting more and more well-behaved, Madam will definitely find you a good husband."

  "Madam!" Xiao Ruo immediately knelt down before me, "Xiao Ruo will never leave Madam's side for the rest of her life!"

  "What's this, life is mine, death is mine?" I coldly gazed at the pearl pendant between Xiaoyu's hair, the pearls on it slightly trembling.

  "Yes."

  "I didn't expect the madam's servants to be so loyal." Yan Yu looked at me with envy, I casually patted Xiao Ruo's shoulder, and she stood up. I smiled at Yan Yu and said, "Those who vow to stay by your side until death may not necessarily be loyal to you."

  "Oh?"

  "It's for having a meal by holding onto your thigh." After I finished saying this, Yurika burst out laughing: "Haha, that makes sense, it really does make sense."

  While they were talking, Yuan Chen and Li Ge had already finished tuning their instruments.

  A strip of tape was cut off and we stopped talking, instead looking seriously at these two young men.

  "The first piece: Drunken Three Immortals." Yundian reported the program, and then started playing. I felt a bit strange, but couldn't quite put my finger on what was strange about it.

  Everyone is intoxicated by the distant dust and farewell songs of the qin and sheng ensemble, the sound of the qin is like fine wine from a wine pool, the sound of the sheng is like white-robed celestial officials floating in the heavenly palace, they hold jade cups, taking out the fine liquor from the immortal pool, savoring it to their heart's content.

  The faces of the celestial officials gradually showed a drunken expression, their clothes fluttering, dancing elegantly, and their intoxicating manner was pleasing to the eye. Finally, they were all knocked down by the fine wine and lay drunk on the white jade stone couch.

  The sound of the qin intoxicates people, the sound of the sheng intoxicates people. The wind seems to carry out the fragrance of wine, making people drunk and infatuated, a wonderful melody that intoxicates the three immortals.

  "Second piece: 'Initial Moon'." The warm and gentle voice of Far Dust came again, and I suddenly realized what was strange - it was that Far Dust announced the title of the piece, just like at a music concert where the host would announce the title of each piece. I didn't expect people here to do the same.

  Chu Yue, not the moon of the first month, but a beauty, is a myth in this world. A woman named Chu Yue met the Dragon Prince who was playing on the shore, and they fell in love at first sight, making vows to each other. Unfortunately, heaven and earth are different, and the Heavenly Court was enraged. The Dragon Prince was suppressed under a great mountain, guarded by three immortals.

  At the beginning of the month, she looked day after day at the mountain that suppressed the Dragon Prince's son, and the tears that flowed down became a great lake, which is now the First Moon Lake 500 miles south of the city. On the shore of the lake there is a huge rock, which looks like a beautiful woman looking into the distance, said to be the First Moon.

  A sad story, imperfect love is everywhere.

  A bitter feeling in my heart, the tragedy of that world continues here. Do I really understand love in this life? The people who love me, I don't love; the ones I love, they don't love me. Later, sinking into romantic love, even if a boyfriend runs off with his own girlfriend, it's somehow considered justified - is this not a kind of disappointment in love?

  Shu Qingya, you're mediocre in your career and reckless in love, you're a complete failure.

  That beautiful and mournful piano sound evoked all the past events I had deliberately tried to escape from, to forget. The bitterness in my heart overflowed from my throat, dissolving on the tip of my tongue. How bitter, how painful it is for a person, only one's own heart knows.

  "The Third Movement: Summer Rain."

  Summer rain is a holiday here, and it's a grand festival. Legend has it that when heaven and earth first opened up, there were only clouds and wind, but no rain. As a result, the fields dried up, and the common people suffered greatly. The heavenly god saw the suffering of the people and was heartbroken himself. He didn't know how to help the people, so this suffering turned into tears, and the tears became rain, bringing moisture to all things and giving them new life.

  The gods also had an additional emotion, which was crying. On this day, June 2nd, coincidentally in the summer, the summer rain became a celebratory festival, similar to the Dai people's Water Splashing Festival, where on that day, the common people would take water basins onto the streets and splash water at passersby to express their wishes.

  I'm quite proud of my knowledge, to be honest. In the past twenty years or so, I haven't read as many books as I have in these few months. After all, in a world without TV and computers, people would go crazy if they didn't read.

  The joyful tune of "Summer Rain" finally lifted my mood, and I thought of spring bamboo shoots again. Today, I must eat them, so I pulled over Nan Gong Autumn Leaf: "Autumn Leaf, trouble you to tell Xan Xan that today he has to make a thousand bamboo shoot feast."

  "Banquet of a Thousand Bamboo Shoots?"

  "Hmm... I'm just seeing off Prince Nagi, heh heh." If I didn't mention Nagi, I'd worry that Jun would put horse beans in the dishes.

  Nangong Qiuye nodded after listening, and whispered to Chunyu. Originally thought that Chunyu would refuse, but unexpectedly his face showed joy, that kind of joy was like finally being able to do what he wanted to do, I guess it's because of the passion for cooking in his body.

  Too good! Today I have good luck with food!

  I'm so happy to see everyone's encouragement today, and I even met an old friend I haven't seen in a long time, it's really TMD exciting. Don't worry, Xiaolian will always be Xiaolian, writing books that make everyone happy. Hehe, just like Xiaolian, every day is a happy day.

  I remember the older generation used to say that you can't be happy every day.

  But Xiao Lianzi told him, as long as you're happy today, then when you look back, every day will be happy. He said how is that possible? Haha, Xiao Lianzi said: everything is possible, it just depends on how you look at life.
