When I arrived in Shangjing, I saw a lot of prosperity here.

Ye Ziyan and Gu Shuyao were first sent to the General's Mansion to see Ye Yongning.Seeing Ye Ziyan grabbing her wrist, Ye Yongning said: "Stinky girl, you even lied to your own brother! Give me a fake jade seal, and you still want to go to Kaifeng with this girl!"

Ye Ziyan pushed him away with a snort and said: "The jade seal originally belonged to the Han emperor. Brother, we are also Han, why did you help the Khitan people snatch her jade seal?"

"Presumptuous! We are the courtiers of Daliao now, so we should be loyal to the emperor!" Ye Yongning reprimanded.

Then he looked at Gu Shuyao and said, "Although our emperor of the Liao Dynasty is a foreign race, we also believe in the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. Of course, if it is something else, we will not snatch it from the young lady, but this imperial jade seal is related to the orthodoxy of the country, so we must hand it over! Miss If you take the initiative to contribute, it is a great achievement, and our emperor will thank you very much!"

Gu Shuyao said: "I know I have no choice, just give you the jade seal!"

"Brother, you can't take this jade seal for nothing!" Ye Ziyan said.

Ye Yongning nodded and said: "Tomorrow, I will bring Miss Gu into the palace in person, and she will present the jade seal to the emperor in person, so that the emperor will thank her very much!"

Early the next morning, the Ye brothers and sisters entered the palace with Gu Shuyao.I saw a man with a black beard sitting in the hall. He wore a golden crown on his head, his hair hung around his left lapel, and his face was stern. This person was Yelvjing.

"Join Your Majesty!" Ye Yongning knelt and said.

Yelujing laughed loudly, looked at Gu Shuyao and said, "This is the chick from the Gu family!"

According to Ye Ziyan's explanation, Gu Shuyao held the jade seal in her hand and said: "This is the jade seal passed down to the country. Qin Shihuang used He's Bi to cast it, and the later dynasties regarded it as Chinese orthodoxy. Today, your majesty is benevolent, and you are entrusted with the destiny. The little girl is willing to Present the jade seal, and wish the emperor an early peace of the Central Plains and unification of the world!"

Yelujing was overjoyed, he got up from his seat, pulled Gu Shuyao up and said: "Okay! I got this treasure today, and I will rule the world in the future!"

Afterwards, Yelujing issued a decree: "Confer Ye Yongning as Marquis of Wu Ding, Ye Ziyan as the maidservant, and Gu Shuyao as the emperor in the palace, and the empress will serve in front of her!"

Since then, Gu Shuyao has stayed in the palace. Both she and Ye Ziyan have official positions and live together every day.The two had a very happy life in the palace. They arranged flowers and embroidered together, and went out together in spring.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, Mu Zong led troops to the Beirong Army, Ye Yongning also joined the army, leaving only Ye Ziyan and Gu Shuyao in the palace.With the emperor leaving the capital, Ye Ziyan and Gu Shuyao finally had the opportunity to visit the harem.

At this time, there was a sound of piano, Gu Shuyao looked through the window, and saw a beautiful and happy girl sitting there playing the piano.

Ye Ziyan pulled her and said: "This is Princess Yue, the jewel in the palm of the current emperor, named Yelu Qingrou."

Gu Shuyao yelled, Ye Ziyan was pulling her and was about to leave, when a voice behind said: "Stop! You just left without asking for peace after seeing Ben Gong, Ye Ziyan, you are getting bolder and bolder!" There was a giggle.

Gu Shuyao was startled, and when she looked back, she saw a smiling girl running briskly over.Ye Ziyan hurriedly pulled Gu Shuyao to kneel down and said, "See the princess!"

Yelu Qingrou is only 13 years old, one year younger than Gu Shuyao.She glanced at Gu Shuyao, her big eyes were shining, she pulled her up and said, "This sister is so beautiful! What's your name?"

"My name is Gu Shuyao!" Gu Shuyao replied with a smile.

Yelu Qingrou nodded and said: "You are the elder sister who presented the Imperial Seal to Father!"

Ye Ziyan glanced at Gu Shuyao, pulled her up and wanted to leave again.

Yelu Qingrou said: "Sister Ye, you have to leave first! Let Sister Gu stay with me!" Ye Ziyan was stunned for a moment, Yelu Qingrou had already dragged Gu Shuyao away.Ye Ziyan blushed with anger, stroked her hair, and walked away step by step.

"Can you play the piano?" Yelu Qingrou asked.

"Of course!" Gu Shuyao said.

Yelu Qingrou patted the stool and said, "Sister, please play a piece!" Gu Shuyao lifted her embroidered skirt and sat down, then played a piece lightly.

The sound of the piano is clear, the bamboo forest is rustling, and the whole palace is full of joy.Yelu Qingrou was very happy, she changed her dance clothes and began to dance, her long sleeves fluttered like a fairy.Gu Shuyao shook her head while playing the piano, and the two cooperated very closely.

Gu Shuyao's complexion was fair, with jade beads hanging on her ears, she smiled slightly, she was infinitely beautiful.Yelu Qingrou's almond eyes, looking back at her with a smile, can be described as overwhelming.The two of them had a great time, and there was a feeling of regret when they met each other.

From then on, Yelu Qingrou kept Gu Shuyao in the palace and refused to let her go out.Gu Shuyao was still thinking about the Chuanguo Yuxi, and she had made a vow before her father died that she must send the Chuanguo Yuxi to Kaifeng and hand it over to the Emperor of Song Dynasty.

This Chuan Guo Yuxi was cast by Heshibi, which symbolized the orthodoxy of China.Now Liao Muzong Yelvjing got the jade seal, which further stimulated his idea of ​​going south to destroy the Song Dynasty, so Gu Shuyao wanted to get the jade seal back no matter what.She knew that Yelu Qingrou was the direct daughter of Emperor Daliao, and if she could make friends with her, it would be possible to find a way to get back the jade seal.For this purpose, Gu Shuyao began to curry favor with Yelu Qingrou.

When Ye Ziyan saw Gu Shuyao being with Yelu Qingrou every day, she was inexplicably jealous, and even shed tears secretly.

"It's clear that I've been helping you all the time, but you and that Yeluqing are as soft as glue, and you don't even care about my good sister!" Ye Ziyan complained.

That night, Gu Shuyao played the piano with Yelu Qingrou in the palace, and the two sang while playing, their cheerful singing was soul-stirring.

Ye Ziyan stood outside, alone in the cold wind.She gritted her teeth, turned around and opened the door to go in, and did not salute when she saw Yelu Qingrou.

Ye Ziyan said to Gu Shuyao: "Tomorrow morning I'm going to spring, will you go?"

Gu Shuyao was taken aback, looked at Yelu Qingrou and said softly, "Okay!"

"I'm going too, take me with you!" Yelu Qingrou begged.

Ye Ziyan had a sneer on his face and said: "It's not suitable for the princess to leave the palace, she should stay here!"

Yelu Qingrou was taken aback, Ye Ziyan dragged Gu Shuyao away.

After leaving the palace, Ye Ziyan looked at her with red eyes and said: "Stinky girl, did you forget about me?"

Gu Shuyao shook her head and said, "No! The princess asked me to play with her, so naturally I dare not resist the order!"

Ye Ziyan pursed her lips and said: "I'm going back to my elder brother's house, and I'll live there for a few days, I don't like palaces now!"

Gu Shuying hummed and said, "I'll be with you!" Ye Ziyan smiled.

The two came to Ye Mansion together, and went to spring together the next day.There is a big mountain behind Ye Mansion, and there is a lotus garden here.

Looking at the lotus in the sky, Ye Ziyan said: "I planted this lotus with my own hands. I swore to the sky that I would go boating with the person I like and live in seclusion to pick lotus in the future!" Ye Ziyan's face was ashamed red.

Gu Shuyao didn't understand her hint, she shook her head and said, "Could it be that my sister has a sweetheart?"

Ye Ziyan watched her straighten her hair, looked down at the beautiful figure in the water, and said to herself: "I don't know either!"

Gu Shuyao was paddling the boat, which had already floated across the mountains.Along the mountain stream, their boat came to a fairy cave.

Seeing the four big characters "Lianxi Yixiang" written here, Ye Ziyan jumped off the boat, stretched out her slender white hands and said: "Come down!"

Gu Shuyao grabbed her hand and walked into the room together.There are exquisite tables and chairs, palace murals from the Han Dynasty, bronze utensils and porcelain pots from the Zhou Dynasty.The corridors here are twists and turns, and the courtyard is full of flowers.

Gu Shuyao said happily: "I like this place very much!"

Ye Ziyan looked at her happy face and said: "As long as you like it, that's fine!"

Gu Shuyao was sitting in a bush of flowers, Ye Ziyan entered the back room and came out after changing clothes.Her long veil dragged the floor, her breasts were high, and her Hanfu fluttered in the wind.The waist is lightly tied, the jade belt is tight, the golden hairpin is pulled out, and the long hair reaches the waist.Ye Ziyan was so beautiful and generous at this time, she was astonished as a heavenly being.

Gu Shuyao looked at her, who had been carefree before, suddenly seemed to be a different person, and couldn't help covering her mouth.

Ye Ziyan looked at the flying flowers and said: "Don't think that Yelu Qingrou is the only one who can dance well, don't you know that I was born as a singing girl!"

Gu Shuyao was shocked, she looked at Ye Ziyan and said, "Are you a singing girl?"

Ye Ziyan burst into tears, and she choked up and said: "I was born in a famous family, and I am the daughter of the Taichang Temple in the Later Jin Dynasty. I was proficient in music since I was a child, but because my father committed a crime, my home was confiscated, and I was not admitted to the Yuefu as a singing girl. I studied all over the world in the Yuefu Famous songs, proficient in Hu and Han dances, and was named a court musician by Emperor Jin Shao. The war in the north, my brother took refuge in the Liao Kingdom, made great contributions, and I have since become the daughter of the Ye family!"

Gu Shuyao looked at her, she didn't expect this cheerful and cheerful girl to have experienced such ups and downs in life.

Gu Shuyao was moved, Ye Ziyan said: "I am proficient in various musical instruments, especially the Qiang flute!"

"Then play a song for me!" Gu Shuyao looked at her and said.

Ye Ziyan took out a short Qiang flute from his sleeve, looked at Yiyi Qingshan in the distance, and then blew the flute vigorously.

There is a saying in Tang poetry: Why should the Qiang flute complain about the willows? The spring breeze does not pass Yumen Pass.This Qiang flute is resentful and desolate, with a unique feeling of desert.The sound of the flute is ethereal, like a complaining woman crying late at night, or like a husband ascending to a height and weeping.The song "Folding Willows" completely conquered Gu Shuyao's heart.She cried, and tears fell down the line, crying until the pear blossoms were raining, and the spring girl was sad.

Ye Ziyan gave her the small Qiang flute and said, "For you! If you want to listen to the music, don't forget that I am it!"

Gu Shuyao took it and put it in her sleeve, Ye Ziyan blushed, turned and walked into the flowers.Afterwards, the two drank wine among the flowers.

"Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, you can see Nanshan leisurely! There is really a wind of five willows here." Gu Shuyao said.

In the evening of that day, the two set up a wine table and drank together in the pavilion.After several glasses of wine, Gu Shuyao's cheeks were flushed, and her expression was slightly drunk.She threw herself on Ye Ziyan, holding her hand, her eyes were hazy.

"Since my father passed away, I haven't been so happy for a long time, sister..." Gu Shuyao murmured, slowly closing her eyes.

She has a soft body, long eyelashes, and looks like a drunken imperial concubine.At this time, the breeze blew, and a piece of crabapple fell, and the petals were flying all over the sky. Gu Shuyao was lying in Ye Ziyan's arms.

Looking at Gu Shuyao's shy and cuddly appearance, she couldn't help but be moved.She touched Gu Shuyao's face, trembling with her hands, looking at her blood red lips, Ye Ziyan took a deep breath.Slowly, slowly, Ye Ziyan kissed her...

The other party's lips are so soft, the lipstick applied in the morning is still there.Because of happiness or excitement, Gu Shuyao and her party rolled down tears of rouge in the hazy sleep.Ye Ziyan closed her eyes, feeling Gu Shuyao's slippery fragrance.

Then, she lightly stuck out the tip of her tongue and sucked Gu Shuyao's thin tongue. It was soft and comfortable, like a slippery mint slice.Gu Shuyao opened her eyes at this time, looked at Ye Ziyan and said weakly: "Sister, why did you kiss me?"

Ye Ziyan's face turned red, she turned her face to the side, and whispered: "There are mosquitos!"

Gu Shuyao smiled, grabbed her hand and put it on her face, and said slowly: "It smells so good..."

Just like that, under the crabapple tree, Gu Shuyao lay in Ye Ziyan's arms and slowly fell asleep.

Ye Ziyan loved her so much that he was afraid of waking her up, so he hugged her and slept with her till the tip of the willow on the moon.It was only when the moon was half-moon and the stars were bright, the night was deep in spring, and the partridges were singing quietly in the deep mountains, did Gu Shuyao stretch out.

Ye Ziyan's legs were numb from sitting, and then stood up with the support of the crabapple tree.Gu Shuyao smiled embarrassedly, with a hint of fragrance still remaining on her lips.That half-drunk and half-awake kiss made Gu Shuyao fall in love with Ye Ziyan.

The two had a tacit understanding at this time, but neither of them pierced the window paper.

"It's getting late, go to the bedroom and sleep!" Ye Ziyan said.

Gu Shuyao adjusted the remaining makeup, and then went to the bedroom alone.She tossed and turned, unable to sleep at night, thinking about the kiss just now, she was very happy.
