Power Play in a Flourishing Age: The Red Beauty Dominates the World
The Yu family, although declining since this dynasty, was still a top-level aristocratic family in the previous dynasty, second only to the Wang and Xie families.
The Yu and Yuan families have been natural allies for the past century.
Aunt Da instructed her that the Empress Dowager would give her a chance, but she wouldn't openly support her. Therefore, she would have to fight for the position of the Crown Prince's consort on her own.
For her, having such an "opportunity" is enough.
The song played by Yu Chaoyun is called "Farewell Wounds".
It tells the story of a boy and a girl who grew up together as childhood sweethearts. Their parents arranged a marriage for them. However, just before the wedding, the enemy country launched a major attack. The young man was conscripted into the army and sent to guard the border thousands of miles away.
A girl longs for her lover, unable to eat or drink tea, she embarks on a journey alone, traveling thousands of miles to the border to find her fiancé.
Along the way, the girl encounters numerous difficulties and hardships, but finally meets her fiancé at the border. They pour out their hearts to each other, and their love is fulfilled.
This opening paragraph is about the heart-wrenching longing of a young girl for her fiancé, causing all the young girls to have teary eyes. Some secretly use handkerchiefs to wipe the corners of their eyes.
Yuchi Chaoyun's rosy and plump lips slightly curled up, and the light outside the window cast a faint shadow on the side of her nose, highlighting her eyes as particularly calm and resolute.
She is not the eldest daughter in the family. With her status, although she can marry into a prestigious family, she cannot become the main wife. It might be better to take a risk. Who knows, she might achieve great success.
For this, she has already given up on her cousin, the person she has admired since childhood.
It's like a knife in her heart, and she still feels the pain till now.
She can't lose, she absolutely can't lose!
In her heart, Yu Chaoyun kept telling herself that her sitting posture was slender and straight.
The slender fingers swiftly plucked the strings of the qin, becoming faster and faster, almost creating illusions. The sound of the qin became more and more passionate, reaching its climax...
A girl encountered countless difficulties and dangers on her way to the border.
This is the darkest and most painful part of the piece.
Yuzhaoyun's face drooped even more, touched in his heart. Over the years, their Yuzhishi had been declining, and she had faced many cold glances from the nobles, who looked down on her.
She swiftly used her index finger to continuously and rapidly pluck the strings, creating a grandiose effect reminiscent of a thousand galloping horses.
When the melody reached its climax, it suddenly transitioned into a soothing rhythm...
Her fingers also became nimble, playing smooth melodies. Suddenly, the scene in front of her darkened as she caught a glimpse of several figures walking towards the gate of the water pavilion, blocking the light.
Thump thump!
Yuchao Yun's heartbeat quickened, and she quickly averted her gaze, looking down at the piano, thinking to herself: It must be the Crown Prince.
She became even more focused and cautious, striving for perfection in this piece.
The music gradually comes to an end, the sound of the piano slowing down and lowering, with a sorrowful and lingering joy, touching one's heart...
As the song finishes.
Yuzhao Yun holds down the strings, and the sound of the piano stops.
The water pavilion suddenly fell into silence, with a melancholic atmosphere that lingered, leaving the listeners wanting more.
This piece of music is flawless. Yu Chaoyun breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but maintained a calm and elegant demeanor on her face.
She slowly lifted her head, and her fingers curled slightly in anticipation, but the person she had hoped to see did not appear before her.
Instead, it was a slender man in his fifties, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, with a gentle and refined face marked with wrinkles.
Only one person dares to wear this dragon robe in this magnificent scene and imperial palace.
The emperor did not come alone, but stood side by side with a sixty-seven or eighty-year-old old woman.
The elderly woman is tall and slender, just half a head shorter than the emperor. Her hair and eyebrows are already half white, with sharp brows and hair neatly combed. Even though she is in her old age, her exquisite features still reveal the unparalleled elegance she possessed in her youth.
Elegance carries with dignity, nobility carries with arrogance.
Every movement exudes confident charm, with a majestic appearance.
The onlookers around them all fell silent, staring at the emperor and the old woman, inevitably speculating about the identity of the old woman.
Weijiaoniang's eyes were gleaming, and she stared at the old woman without blinking, as if she couldn't bear to blink.
"..." Yuzhaoyun's hand, placed above the guqin, paused for a moment, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Wasn't it said that the Crown Prince would come at this time?
The howling cold wind made a window in the Water Pavilion squeak twice.
"Pa!"
The emperor lightly applauded and praised with a smile, "Well played."
The girls in the Water Pavilion finally came back to their senses and stood up, bowing to the Emperor, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Yuchi Chaoyun also knelt down and paid his respects to the emperor. Unable to restrain his curiosity, he glanced behind the emperor, only to find emptiness. Outside the water pavilion, there was only the howling wind and snow, and no sign of the crown prince, Chu Yi.
Yuchao Yun's heart sank slightly, feeling a bit disappointed, but still maintaining a dignified appearance.
As soon as the emperor arrived, several palace eunuchs immediately set up a tea table in the middle of the water pavilion and placed two high-ranking chairs. They also placed large red cushions on the chairs as backrests.
The emperor and the old woman sat down on either side of the tea table.
Seeing that the old woman had the audacity to sit side by side with the emperor, the crowd was even more astonished, secretly exchanging glances, feeling that her identity was about to be revealed.
Eldest daughter of the Emperor Taizu, Grand Princess Fengyang.
In the Water Pavilion, it is quiet and serene.
The palace maids immediately served tea to the Emperor and Grand Princess Fengyang. The chief eunuch, Zhao Rang, personally took the tea from the maids and served it to the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, be careful, the tea is hot."
Zhao Rang said as he placed the colorful tea cup on the coffee table, while discreetly pointing with his index finger to the west side of the water pavilion.
The Emperor picked up the tea cup and followed Zhao Rang's direction, his gaze accurately fell upon a beautiful young girl dressed in a light blue gown.
The girl's eyes are clear as water, and her lips are as red as dye. Her skin is as radiant as snow, and her delicate face is like a masterpiece drawn by a famous artist. Her eyebrows and eyes are exquisitely beautiful, with unmatched purity.
When it comes to Gu Yanfei, the emperor's first impression is beauty.
Not only beautiful, but also elegant and dignified, she has a charm that is both bright and refined, and a grace that is both elegant and witty.
It's her, it must be her!
Although there are several young ladies around the girl who are about her age, the emperor is sure with just one glance that this beautiful girl must be his son's sweetheart.
The corners of the emperor's lips slightly curled up, his expressions gentle, and his mood extremely good.
He guessed that his son had a crush, but no matter how many times he asked, his son refused to say, which made him extremely anxious. Even in his dreams at night, he would dream of his son bringing a girl with a blurred face to meet him.
As soon as he heard that his son's crush was in the palace, he couldn't resist it anymore. He found an excuse to send his son away first, and quickly came here to see the person.
In that moment, the dreamy girl with blurred features and the beautiful and unique girl in front of him merged together!
The more the emperor looked, the more satisfied he became, and the more he liked it.
The son's taste is indeed good, which is similar to his own!
Gu Yanfei naturally noticed the emperor's gaze, looked up in the direction of the emperor, and smiled brightly.
Their eyes met silently in mid-air.
The emperor looked into Yanfei's third eye and noticed her gaze.
The young girl, who had not yet reached the age of fifteen, had a pair of wise eyes that were bright enough to penetrate the depths of one's soul. Her gaze was like the vast sea, and at the same time, it seemed to be filled with the sparkling stars of a summer night sky, boundless and limitless.
The emperor was slightly startled. He remembered that the founder emperor once said to him, "How can someone who has seen the vastness of the stars and seas be content with mere twinkling lights?" This little girl gave him the impression of someone who had seen the vastness of the stars and seas.
Interesting.
The emperor elegantly stroked his beard, then looked into Gu Yanfei's eyes and asked, "Little girl, what do you think of the song just now?"
The smile in the emperor's eyes deepened, carrying a hint of joy and affection.
Her eyes showed respect, but also fearlessness, as if she were no different from ordinary people.
"The questions Jiaoniang gives are about war," Gu Yanfei smirked, a dimple appearing on his cheek. He spoke earnestly, "War shouldn't be the subject of lovesick songs like 'Sad Farewell'."
她评的不是庾朝云的琴艺，而是指对方这一曲不够切题。
说话间，顾燕飞目光在皇帝的眉心转了转，双眸分外幽深，灵气逼人。
How shameless! Yu Chaoyun and the girls around her all frowned unhappily, and their eyes looked sharp at Gu Yanfei.
The chief eunuch Zhao Rang whispered something to the emperor's ear, and the emperor raised an eyebrow and asked Gu Yanfei while stroking his beard, "Girl, are you having a qin competition?"
The emperor’s address to Gu Yanfei changed from "little girl" to "girl" only in the second sentence, with a hint of inexplicable intimacy.
Feng Yang, with grey temples, keenly noticed it and put down his teacup to look at Gu Yanfei. His eyes were bright and his figure was upright like a pine tree, showing no signs of aging. He still exuded a commanding aura.
"In response to Your Majesty, yes, we were indeed playing the qin (a musical instrument)." Gu Yanfei stood up gracefully and replied.
"Yuchao Yun also stood up from behind the qin table, kneeled and paid respects, and her delicate jade-like fingers clenched her sleeve as she respectfully said, 'Your Majesty, I would like to ask Miss Gu's opinion on how war should be approached.'"
After a moment's pause, Yu Chaoyun asked meaningfully, "Could it be 'The Westward Journey Chronicles'?"
'The Westward Journey Chronicles' is a play that tells the story of a past dynasty.
A hundred years ago, the Western Rong army marched eastward, and the army of the previous dynasty retreated continuously. The reigning emperor at that time, Emperor Huizong, surrendered and pleaded for mercy from the Western Rong people. However, he was captured by them and ultimately exiled to the Four Nations City of Western Rong, where he suffered humiliation and died within a few years.
Yao Chaoyun deliberately mentioned "Xidu Lu" to Gu Yanfei, naturally implying Gu Ce's surrender in the past.
The air was filled with occasional sparks of opposition.
What a ridiculous! Wei Jiaoniang suddenly stood up, wanting to say something, but was stopped by Gu Yanfei.
Gu Yanfei looked at Yu Chaoyun with a clear and cold gaze, turned around, and said to the emperor and Fengyang, "War is not like 'Farewell'"
"War should be like 'Treading the Sky'!"
Gu Yanfei nodded at the emperor and walked casually to the qin case. He locked eyes with Yu Zhaoyun on the other side of the qin case, and smirked, saying, "Miss Yu, let me tell you what war is."
At the moment when the last word fell, Gu Yanfei flicked a piano string at will.
With a "clink" sound, the piano melody rang out, pure and cold, as if coming from the unknown void.
