After getting off the pavilion, I casually strolled around. A servant sent by the City Lord came to find me and said that the banquet was about to begin. I identified the wooden and respectful expression on his face, then threw away a willow branch that I had folded before, lightly said yes to him, and followed him to the garden behind the side hall. It was the garden I had been to before.
I tightened the loose icicle gauze and asked the servant in front of me without leaving a trace,"Hmm, is your son preparing for the martial arts examination this year?"”He nodded hesitantly. I pursed my lips in boredom. When he turned around and relaxed, I used a soul-searching spell on him. I closed my eyes and asked his opened soul,"Who is your master close to?"”He didn't look like an ordinary servant and should be the City Lord's confidant, so I used a soul-searching technique on him.
"Senjia City, World Light City, Hundred Taste City, and Moon Thriller Hall Master." He told them everything without realizing it. What was that Moon Fear Hall? He thought of something and asked again,"Who is Moon Fear Hall?"”"The Moon Thriller Hall is an organization that specializes in supervising the officials of the Imperial Court to fulfill their duties. They did not obey the king, but were made up of people with high prestige among the people. I only listen to the hall master."
Oh? I raised my eyebrows with interest and removed the soul search spell. He blinked and looked at me strangely, but when he saw me looking at him strangely, he turned around and led the way without saying much.
I think the cities he mentioned are all cities near this Sand Tower City. And an existence like Moon Fear Hall must be the target that all the officials want to curry favor with. This doesn't make me feel strange.
I followed him and didn't walk far before arriving at the back garden where the banquet was held.
At this time, the famous flowers in front of the back garden were tied with red ribbons. The garden was not spacious, but the position of the flowers was slightly adjusted, and the air here was fresh and pleasant.
The power and wealth of a city lord can be said to be big, but it can be said to be small. I have never seen officials protect each other in the officialdom, but I have a rough understanding. I just don't know how this official website is woven?
I shook off my irritable thoughts, smiled faintly at the person who was looking at me, and stepped into my position gracefully and politely. On my left was the city lord, and on my right was the youth called Xiao 'er. Such an arrangement must have had other intentions.
I looked around. This was like the decoration of a palace banquet. The guests sat in rows instead of forming a circle, and there was only the city lord and the boy beside me. Eh? What about General Leng? It seems I haven't seen him since I changed palanquin.
"Princess." The city lord called me in a low voice. I approached him and replied,"What is it?”He looked around and said,"Can you ask your general to withdraw the soldiers outside the mansion?" This will affect my son's birthday." I glanced at him coldly, and he immediately said in a cold sweat,"Princess, I have no other intentions." I just hope that you can take care of my son's birthday. These guests are the daughters of some merchants. They haven't seen much of the world or the soldiers of the country. They will be frightened." Humph, I just hope that I can't leave halfway after withdrawing my troops. I want to see what you want to do.
"Then tell him to withdraw." I waved my hand and said. My eyes looked at the city lord. He summoned a few servants and muttered a few words before the servants dispersed. With that, he put on a flattering smile and introduced the guests to me. I glanced at the person he pointed at, then picked up the bronze cup on the table and shook it, leaning my body against the chair with soft fur.
"Senior, do you think we can start the banquet?”The boy next to me asked me respectfully after receiving his father's look. I pretended to nod happily, and he got closer to me and asked lazily,"I don't know your name?"”I thought for a moment, not knowing what name to make up. He thought I was shy and waited for my answer with a smile.
I smiled and replied softly,"Xiao Er can call me Sister Yu." After he heard it, he called me sweetly,"Sister Yu!”I smiled and stopped talking, but the disgust in my heart grew stronger.
He no longer spoke to me, but kept making eye contact with the guests around him. I lazily drank the sweet wine in the cup and filled another cup. I brought it to my lips and did not drink it. At this time, the dance at the banquet stopped. The city lord came over and said,"Princess." Later, there will be a seven-stringed zither performance by the most famous Miss Yue in Shata City. You should enjoy it, hehe."
"Is that so?" I blinked with interest, looked at the wine in the glass, and decided not to drink it for the time being. I put down the cup and rubbed my wrist, waiting for Miss Yue to come onstage. After a long time, no one came. Only the sound of an ethereal zither came from afar.
It was like the sound of crystals breaking on the ground, like the sound of tears blooming on the ground, like the excitement of the restoration of all things in the world, like the first ray of sunlight shining on the earth, and the beauty of national celebration!
It was like seeing a young girl with a white veil strumming the strings of a transparent zither with her jade-like hands. The music produced by the zither was like the resonance of hundreds of birds and the breathtaking beauty of hundreds of butterflies dancing together. It made people's hearts involuntarily stop and rotate with the vibration of her zither.
It was as if the flowers all around were blooming and breathing in the beauty of the tirelessly, as if the grass all around were straightening up and standing firmly in the storm, bringing a trace of green to the gray smoke of the earth.
Hundreds of flowers bloomed, hundreds of butterflies danced, and hundreds of birds resonated. It was just like this excitement. Such a magnificent beauty was slowly displayed in front of people like a picture scroll. It seemed that this was not only the sound of the zither, but also a magnificent beauty that made people feel as if the earth was rejuvenated and the snow mountains were melting!
The fluttering butterflies recorded the plucking of the strings with the number of vibrations of their wings, playing back and forth in people's ears. The blooming flowers recorded the arc of the zither with the fragrance of its exhalation and unfolded in front of people's eyes. The joyful birds used their special chirping to bring unparalleled beauty and warmth to people's ears and eyes.
Like a huge and beautiful hand, the music on the strings gathered into a gust of wind, gently stirring people's hearts, passing through their hair, staying in their ears, staying in front of their eyes, leaving a mark on their noses for endless aftertaste.
Like a spring breeze, the music passed through people's hearts and bound them, making them feel the emotions of the person playing the piano while enjoying it.
I dazedly felt this too tranquil and vast beauty, my mind melting layer by layer.
I couldn't control myself, so I raised the moon-string flute and began to play along with the music.
