Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Chapter 32 Mountain Ensemble

The morning light shone through the thin clouds and onto the exquisite carriage in front.

As the carriage slowly moved along the mountain road, Wanyu and Amur sat opposite each other in the carriage, with their respective musical instruments in front of them.

They looked at each other and smiled, then began to stroke the strings with their fingertips.

A cheerful melody flows out like a stream.

The two of them seemed to turn the spring and joy in their hearts into musical notes, which drifted in every corner of the carriage and playfully slipped out of the carriage.

Wanyu's zither sounds like a clear mountain spring, lively and clear, and every string beats with her bright and lively mood.

Amur's piano music is like the fragrance of flowers in the morning breeze, soft and affectionate, interwoven with the sound of the zither, weaving a picture full of spring.

The two played together, one zheng and one qin, one fast and one slow, one lively and one soft.

In between playing, their eyes accidentally met, and there was a tacit understanding and joy that did not require words.

This song is full of joy and vitality, as if it wants to convey the vitality and joy of spring in the bleak and cool autumn.

Behind this team of carriages and horses, there was a team of people lagging far behind.

The handsome man leading the way, riding a tall horse, couldn't help but close his eyes and listen to the pleasant piano and zheng ensemble in front of him.

After a moment, he opened his eyes, with a barely perceptible hint of joy in his tone.

"Hmm, the piano sounds gentle, and the zither sounds lively and clear."

"What a bright, lively, and clear-minded woman."

He smiled softly, "Tianqing."

"My subordinate is here."

"Bring me my jade flute."

"Yes."

Just as Wanyu and Amur's zither and zheng duet was getting better and better, a melodious flute sound quietly blended in.

The addition of the melodious flute sound not only did not break the original melody, but made the entire movement more vivid.

The sounds of the flute, zither and piano interweave to form a seamless harmony.

Like a playful breeze in the mountains, it blends into this spring.

The vitality and vigor of spring are completely integrated into the bleak autumn, bringing people hope and expectations.

Wanyu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Amur. The two of them understood each other and responded to the sound of the flute.

Although the owner of the flute music did not show up, this unexpected ensemble made Wanyu's mood more open and bright.

In the ensemble of zither, piano and flute sounds, everyone seemed to be surrounded by the breath of spring and was intoxicated by the music.

Looking at her sister with a happy expression on her face, Mu Jin also gave her a doting smile.

This is the music score that Wanyu copied from a song called "Spring in March" in her previous life.

As she became more proficient in playing the guzheng and gained her own understanding, she slowly worked it out according to the tunes she remembered.

However, she didn't understand music in her previous life, so she only remembered the general idea.

Fortunately, Wanlin and Amur gave her a lot of ideas and inspiration during this period, which allowed the song in her memory to gradually take shape.

So Amur can also play this song, and the three of them even played it together many times.

Of course, there is more than just this one song. She enjoys playing the guzheng and also likes to play songs according to her mood.

So I also transcribed a lot of songs of different styles, although I didn't deliberately spread them.

However, many upper-class Manchu noblewomen knew that the third princess of the Guwaljia Prefecture was proficient in Chinese studies, especially her skill in playing the guzheng.

As women themselves, everyone admired and respected the two legitimate princesses of the Guwaljia Mansion.

Compared to the gentle and dignified Second Princess Wanlin, many people actually prefer the bright and approachable Third Princess Wanyu.

The reason I play this piece of music today has nothing to do with the season.

She just felt that it was very suitable for the emotions and mood in her heart at the moment, so she played this song unconsciously.

After one song ended, the two played another one together.

But this time, the flute sound did not appear again.

Wanyu and her group were almost reaching their destination.

The carriage slowly stopped at the foot of the mountain. Nanny Zhang Jia lifted the curtain and stuck her head out.

"Princess, Princess Amur, Fourth Prince, we have arrived at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain."

"it is good."

She looked at Amur and Mu Jin.

"Sister, fourth brother, let's get off the car."

The two nodded.

The three of them stepped out of the car lightly with joy and satisfaction in their hearts.

Wanyu looked at the scenery in front of her, as if she had stepped into a colorful and bright painting.

The maple leaves, red as fire and yellow as gold, contrast with the blue sky and white clouds, forming the most beautiful scenery in autumn.

“It’s so beautiful~”

As she sighed at the picturesque scenery in front of her, she didn't know that someone was also looking at the colorful picture in the distance where people and scenery merged into one.

She was wearing a four-green Manchu dress, which formed a strong color conflict with the fiery red autumn colors on the mountains.

Her smiling face and the vitality emanating from her body, coupled with the cool autumn weather, shocked Hesheli Huang Cheng, who was not far away.

"The willows on the bank are green with smoke, and the flowers in the garden are red in the sunlight."

"They do complement each other somewhat."

Wanyu and her group slowly walked up the winding mountain path, stepping on the colors of autumn with every step.

Sometimes they stopped to gaze at the maple leaves sparkling in the sun, and sometimes they talked in low voices, marveling at the beautiful scenery before them.

The air in the mountains is fresh and cool, with a hint of autumn, making people feel refreshed.

Along the way, we met several young boys and girls who also came to enjoy the autumn.

Their appearance was like a sudden touch of bright color in the painting, attracting a lot of admiration.

Although Mu Jin was only ten years old, the young boy already showed some heroic spirit.

Not to mention Amur and Wanyu, they were beautiful flowers raised in wealthy families, and their every move was elegant and well-mannered.

Some people wanted to come forward and talk to them, but were ultimately intimidated by the maids and servants around them, as well as the tall and strong guards behind them.

At first glance, they were all princes and princesses of the Manchu nobility.

He comes from an extraordinary background, and ordinary people would never dare to provoke him.

As the altitude increased, the mountain wind began to pick up, but the group's hearts became more excited by the magnificent scenery before them.

Because they set out early, when they arrived at an ancient pavilion in the mountains, it was just after 9:00 PM.

The pavilion is simple and elegant, surrounded by maple trees, like a hidden paradise.

"The scenery here is beautiful, surrounded by fiery red maple leaves. It's a good place to rest and enjoy the view."

"Sister Amur, shall we stop here and rest for a while?"

Wanyu suggested to rest here. After getting Amur's nod of agreement, Nanny Zhangjia immediately ordered the maids and servants to act quickly.

They skillfully spread out the thick carpet and placed thick cushions embroidered with delicate patterns and a small, exquisite coffee table.

There was a set of exquisite tea sets on it. The little maid quickly boiled water and prepared to make a pot of hot tea for the three masters.

Let them enjoy the cool scenery while also warming themselves up with tea.

Then put a few plates of exquisite pastries on the table for the masters to enjoy.

The guards from the two mansions quickly dispersed and stood around the pavilion.

Their figures, the ancient pavilion and the red leaves form a picture that is both peaceful and solemn, ensuring the safety of their masters.

Wanyu and the other two walked into the pavilion. The maple leaves around them swayed gently in the wind, making rustling sounds, as if welcoming their arrival.

They sat down quietly, and the maids brought them tea. A hint of tea fragrance filled the air, blending with the freshness of autumn, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Wanyu and Amur sat drinking tea and chatting, while Mu Jin ordered his captain of the guards to send two guards to go hunting in the mountains.

Although my sister said that she had prepared the ingredients for lunch, there were so many people coming out this time.

You can't just eat and drink your fill while these guards and maids and servants just watch and not have enough to eat.

Amur watched Mu Jin arrange the guards to do their work in an orderly manner, and winked at Wanyu in the direction of Mu Jin.

Wanyu smiled and said, "My brother has grown up."

Amur also laughed and said, "That's right."

After chatting and laughing, she asked Duolan to arrange a few of his own guards to go hunting with the guards of Guwaljia Mansion.

While sipping tea, they admired the surrounding scenery: the mountains in the distance, the maple forest nearby, and the occasional birds flying by. Every detail made people happy.

And at this moment, someone was gradually approaching.
