… … He directly ordered my mother to create all kinds of opportunities for him to meet with my aunt. My mother refused, so he said that she didn't obey her husband's orders, didn't respect her wife's responsibilities, and wanted to abort the child in her belly.
Because of me, my mother was disheartened. At first, she wanted to stop it, but later, she was too lazy to care. She coldly watched her husband fool around with her younger sister, while she sang operas in the fu every day. "
GongYimo was originally listening in a daze, but when she heard this, her expression froze for a moment. However, she saw Shen Shi Ye smile as if he didn't care.
"At that time, I was still young, but I remember one line very clearly. I'll sing it for you … …"
As he said this, Shen Shi Ye pretended to be serious, cleared his throat, and sang softly … …
"Who would have thought … … that the spring pavilion was warm for ten nights and cold for a while. It was originally a sparrow flying to the phoenix's nest … …"
His young and clear voice reverberated through the streets and alleys. It was clearly a "fake phoenix" opera that women could sing, but he sang it in such a low voice, which had a different kind of sadness.
"Do you know?"
He suddenly stopped and said to GongYimo, "Father didn't step into the main courtyard after my mother became pregnant. Added together, it was exactly ten nights. Moreover, when my mother gave birth to me, he wasn't by her side, so my mother named me Shi Ye. It was full of irony! She hated me because of the house and the crow … … "
"This kind of life was far from the reckless life she wanted, so she became more and more obsessed with opera. In the end, on New Year's Eve in the Prince's Mansion, she ignored everyone's objections and forced all the performers to go on stage to perform Farewell, My Concubine. But I didn't expect that her last sword strike would really cause blood to splatter. I was just below the stage at that time, but she didn't even leave me a last word …"
Shen Shi Ye's voice trembled slightly.
What happened afterwards was very simple. His father desperately wanted to marry his aunt and reached an agreement with his grandmother. As long as his grandmother agreed, no matter how many children there were in the fu, the last one to inherit would be him. Therefore, his grandmother let that woman enter the fu, and she became his stepmother.
GongYimo gradually sobered up. She seemed to be able to imagine how that woman with heavy makeup would finish the last play alone on the stage. That kind of life, for a woman with lofty aspirations, was indeed too torturous. After all, she was a woman who grew up under the influence of feudalism. No matter how unconventional she was, she could not jump out of this pattern.
GongYimo rubbed his swollen head as he sensed the deep sorrow emanating from the big boy beside him. Suddenly, he sneakily moved his face forward as he winked and smiled.
"Singing … I can't sing, but I can dance. Do you want to watch?"
Shen Shi Ye was originally immersed in pessimism, but when he heard GongYimo's words, he couldn't help but look at her flat little body and chuckled. "Dance? You? "
"Yeah!"
GongYimo jumped a little further away, then gracefully turned around and raised her head. She thought her movements were very elegant and graceful. She was wearing the simplest training clothes, but because she was drunk, her simple turn made her stagger. That funny appearance inexplicably made Shen Shi Ye's mood better.
"Look at you, could it be that you want to play a drunken stupor for this young master? Don't ruin this young master's eyes. "
When GongYimo heard this, she looked at him with a pair of unconvinced eyes. She was not sober and was just foolishly muttering to herself.
"When I dance, even Father Emperor and the others have never seen me. Heavens, you're simply too lucky!"
Shen Shi Ye couldn't help but laugh. "I've never seen such a boastful person. Fine, if you want to dance, then dance. If you don't dance well, this young master won't blame you at most!"
Hearing him say this, GongYimo smiled with satisfaction and took a step further away. At this time, they were standing on a spacious street. Beneath their feet were bluestone slabs, and on both sides were tightly closed shops. There was also the sound of a night watchman shouting from afar.
And Shen Shi Ye was sitting on the stone steps in front of someone's door, looking at her. He wanted to enjoy this honor that even an emperor didn't have.
GongYimo pulled open the hair band on her head and danced the most common sacrificial dance in this space-time, He Qingtian.
The evening wind lifted her long hair. She had lived like a princess in this life, so her black hair was soft and shiny. As her body spun, it fluttered and tangled together, disturbing people's hearts.
Perhaps it was because she practiced martial arts, but she could easily perform those difficult movements. Or perhaps it was because she was drunk, but the originally elegant and dignified dance steps were performed with more confidence and freedom at this time.
This was a group dance that GongYimo had seen during a sacrifice to the heavens. Because of the unique movements, she firmly remembered the mysterious and ancient style.
But it was still very strenuous for her to imitate. Although she remembered most of the movements, there were still many places where she couldn't connect. She danced randomly in the blurry places, but she didn't care. The more she danced, the more she enjoyed herself.
The sacrificial dance was originally sacred and without any beauty. But in Shen Shi Ye's eyes, this was the most beautiful dance he had ever seen. There was no other dance that could compare.
GongYimo danced energetically, but the alcohol got to her head, and her body became more and more uncontrollable. Finally, she turned around, but her left foot tripped over her right foot, and she fell straight forward!
Shen Shi Ye almost reflexively rushed over to catch her, and hugged her tightly! The girl's body fragrance and warmth formed a clear consciousness in his mind for the first time!
GongYimo raised her head, and the warm smell of alcohol blew on Shen Shi Ye's face. He didn't dislike it, but said, "What a drunkard! Fortunately, you met this young master! "
Yi Mo suddenly muttered a few words from the side.
"Shen Shi Ye."
"What!"
"You … you have to be careful … of your stepmother." GongYimo half leaned in his arms, her divine sense unclear, "If one day … mm … you encounter danger … no … no place to go, you … can trust me."
She said it vaguely, but Shen Shi Ye heard it clearly. His pair of bright eyes stared at her without blinking, but his heart was unprecedentedly warm.
The world only saw the glory in front of others. Who knew that he couldn't trust anyone behind the scenes, and he was bitterly struggling. Only this little girl, who he had only known for a short time, wanted him to trust her in this kind of situation.
Shen Shi Ye's arrogant expression couldn't help but soften. He couldn't help but pinch GongYimo's tender little face. No wonder she liked it, it felt really good.
"Stinky girl! Humph … your words, this young master, I … will remember! "
"What are you doing?!"
Just as Shen Shi Ye was about to take GongYimo back to rest, an angry voice came. GongYimo was already sleeping like a log, and her breathing was very even on Shen Shi Ye's neck.
He raised his head, and at the end of the street, a man wearing a black robe with a golden crown was angrily glaring at him!
He was panting slightly, and his bun was slightly sharp. At this time, there was no servant behind him, but Shen Shi Ye still recognized him.
"Yo, isn't this His Highness the Crown Prince?" He hugged GongYimo even tighter, and his face had a fearless smile, "It's so late, and the Crown Prince is here. It's really strange."
