Chapter 278 Fall
Perhaps because they were influenced by what they saw and heard, the actors' wives and children quickly learned to sing opera.
However, the singing was so halting that Zhu Huaizhen felt confused.
Zhu Huaizhen was seen lying on a beauty couch surrounded by black lacquer and gold-painted scrolls of poetry and paintings, holding a round fan with a mahogany handle embroidered with pomegranates, cats and butterflies, moving it back and forth, his posture as lazy as a Persian cat.
Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.
She heard "Peach Blossom Fan" again, but it was not very pleasant.
She took a few bites of the rich and colorful cup of sesame, salt, bamboo shoots, chestnuts, loofah kernels, walnut kernels, and spring immortal seagull tea, mixed with swan osmanthus, rose, and Lu'an sparrow tongue bud tea, and found it tasteless.
Seeing that she was getting thinner, Tu Mi asked Qiu Niang to cook a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Sugar-heart abalone, pineapple sea cucumber, white shark lips, young deer tendons, claw meat, golden shark fin, ivory clam meat, spider fish glue, quail eggs, ham, pork ribs, clean winter bamboo shoots, king oyster mushrooms, chrysanthemum mushrooms, wild pine mushrooms, morels, snow bamboo fungus, Shaoxing wine, eighteen ingredients, eighteen delicious flavors. The moment you lift the lotus leaf covering the jar, the rich meaty aroma is so fragrant that even a Buddha would jump over the wall.
However, Zhu Huaizhen couldn't eat and felt a little nauseous.
She was probably infected by Jiang Cheng's miserable mood these days.
However, Jiangcheng will only become more miserable in the future.
"Your Highness, Jiangcheng has fallen." Tu Mi hurried back, covering his right arm and then letting go. The blood on his body was dripping with water stains, and it was obvious that he could not wash it off.
"Tu Mi, did you save someone?" Zhu Huaizhen pondered for a long time.
"Your Highness, I can understand that they want to kill the men of Nanchu. The victors are the kings and the losers are the bandits. However, they even spared the children. I cannot tolerate such beastly behavior." Tu Mi couldn't help but frown.
"The children were used to tip off their comrades, killing them." Zhu Huaizhen said coldly.
Moreover, children are Nan Chu's hope.
They want to extinguish Nan Chu's hope.
Zhu Huaizhen is not saying that such a massacre is justified.
From the perspective of the people of Southern Chu, it was a blood feud that could not be forgotten even after a hundred years.
"Tu Mi, go and call Ali back." Zhu Huaizhen sighed helplessly.
Lou Li had probably calculated that one day, Zhu Huaizhen would be forced to bow to him. Therefore, Lou Li so brazenly chose Zhao De as Emperor Ming of Chu, and then fanned the flames, creating a living hell for Southern Chu.
"Your Highness, is it really that serious? I can't just stand by and watch him die..." Tu Mi murmured.
"Tu Mi, it's a bit difficult for me to keep them and their children safe now." Zhu Huaizhen pointed at the people singing on the stage, thought of the actors in the past, and warm tears rolled down his eyes.
After all, one is listening to opera and the other is performing opera, and they face each other every day, so there is some affection between them.
Besides, these actors didn't cause her any trouble and were kind-hearted.
Hey, why does Zhu Huaizhen always meet good people, so that she can't just stand by and watch someone die.
"Tu Mi, go quickly, these allied forces will come here to cause trouble soon." Zhu Huaizhen sighed lightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tu Mi used the Ghostly Steps skill and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
