Chapter 14
Chapter 14 – The Idiot Says (Two) After a few seconds, she collapsed on the table. After, she suddenly sat up straight, only, she wasn’t completely clear headed. Her body swayed, about to collapse at any second. Li You’s left hand propped up his chin, watching her little, red face with that pair of pupils that were like a clear spring. He didn’t support her, letting her stay there, playing the role of a “bu dao weng”.
(T/N: literally translates to ‘not falling toy’ which is kind of like a bobblehead but with the full body) “Li You……” The somewhat intoxicated little figure suddenly called out to him. “Yes?” He poured another cup of wine, preparing to watch an amusing show.
“Has anyone ever told you that you’re very infuriating?” It was true, drunk people become very brave. “No one has ever said that to me before, but now, there is one idiot who has said it.” Yan Xuan pouted, unaware that she had just been called an idiot. “It is really impressive to not have a mother. People without fathers are all over the place…… you always bully people, you’re a strange person.” Li You became silent, but he didn’t get angry, calmly waiting for her to continue. “I also don’t have a mother…… actually, I don’t even know who my biological dad is. My dad is called Yan Tianxu, I don’t even know what my real last name is, it was him who gave me a last name. He was the one who told me that I was his daughter……” Yan Xuan’s eyes were half open, her voice becoming a little more emotional for this last part, “to not have a mother really is to have nothing…… we won’t have such an easy life. Li You, everyone says you’re frivolous, lazy…… hehe, I think they’re really stupid, you’re so sinister and cunning, how can you be the type of person who lazes around and does nothing……” “So the little lady believes that Li You is what kind of person?” Li You was like a smile but not a smile, his hand playing around with the empty wine gla.s.s. Yan Xuan didn’t respond, her dizzy little head spinning to a different topic, “the imperial palace’s dog eat dog system, you’ve hated it for a long time, haven’t you? You once told me, getting used to it was good, but I’m not used to it at all, having to protect oneself for the whole day, how tiring must it be, must you tire yourself out so much until the point of death?” “You lived in the imperial palace for so many years, without your mother, how on earth did you stay alive? Why does everyone think you’re nothing more than a lazy good for nothing? You who disregards royal authority, if there’s anyone who would think about it, they must be eliminated…… I don’t understand it, I really don’t understand it.” “Lots of women would have their heads squeezed until they’re broken to marry into the royal family, I truly think they’re idiots, what’s so good about the imperial palace? You can’t even eat a meal without checking if there’s poison in it. You all say that I’m dumb, but I can see this more clearly than anyone else, because the spectator always sees more of the game, if you’re too close it become bewildering. I have always been the spectator, always seeing those who think themselves to be smart get swept away by the whirlpool of the imperial palace, unable to free themselves, and that becomes their final struggle…… haha, it truly is hilarious, that kind of imperial palace, every loves it, no?” Li You’s eyes had an unidentifiable emotion slowly revealed in them, the cup in his hand making a quiet cracking noise. “Li You, you were born in the imperial palace, unable to choose your fate, I truly pity you.” Yan Xuan stretched out her hand to pour another cup of wine. “Hehe, why don’t I sing you a song? Hm, what should I sing?” Her drunken state was at its peak, compared to what had happened a moment ago, unconsciously revealing a obsequious att.i.tude, bashful and agreeable, she also has a kind of clear air to her that no ordinary girls have, as if she’s a deity who is greedy over mortal sceneries from the 9th heaven.
(T/N: I’m not sure about the last part so if it confuses you, I think it’s fine to disregard that part) “Oh, I know what I should sing……” She let out a gurgling laugh, her small, cosmeticless face glowing so much that no one would be able to look at it directly, her pink lips gently pulling, a beautiful voice reverberating. ——So it is said: If you are not amorous when you are young, you have wasted away your youth
In those amorous youthful years, watching with a smile as life changes
In the deity’s manor competing against deities, happily conversing among the land of the river and lakes
Lying drunken on the beauty’s knee; awaken to hold the control of the nation in my palm
This unstable time produces heroes of this generation that shall return with golden spear [in hand]
There are jade and colorful gla.s.s cups and silk curtains flying in the air as if painting a picture
Wine may not have intoxicated me for I have intoxicated myself in a warm canopied bed and covers
Caressing flowers and toying with the crescent moon as I walk amid this ever-changing life
How could it be a crime to embrace one on my left and encircle another in my right arm? Attracting a beauty’s affection can lead to exhaustion, exhaustion, exhaustion! It was actually just talking, the sound slightly low and deep, melodious and pleasant, a sort of untamed freedom of wildness that has seen a beauty, and a great enlightened clarity. The corners of her eyes very slightly move upwards, having a kind of demagogic feeling. In a flash, the talking changed to singing, suave and touching, like a black naped oriole chirping, but it had a sort of faint sentimental feeling that could make one shed tears.
(T/N: Halp this is so annoying, also, a black naped oriole doesn’t have the most beautiful chirp, just to clarify) ——Qin and se (two traditional Chinese plucked instruments) are answering one another.
The goose flies lightly.
With eyes like the limpid autumn waters and stars, a sleeve flourishes to veil a sweetly coquettish face.
The peach blossoms are charming. The cool breeze is intoxicating.
The ancient wall is gathering dust. A fragrance drifts continuously. Tears of yearning. In this song it was as if the main character was being attacked with innuendos. Li You looked at the person in front of him, letting out a low laugh, not saying anything. The tone of the song suddenly changed, returning to the talking part. Perhaps it was a bit monotonous, Yan Xuan picked up a chopstick and started banging a wine gla.s.s for a beat. Dingding dongdong, a beautiful sound flowed out. ——An undercurrent is rising to the surface with the wind. The malevolent spirits’ intents are coming to an end.
The beauty’s home conceals a mystery. I pledge loyalty to the Yellow Emperor
Like my lofty ambitions, always concerned about the worldly affairs
With troubling matters in the imperial court, the ruler oversees the earth
Parting is like a wound. Always merry in one’s wild youth
The proud snow and cold frost are especially icily beautiful. The blazing plum blossoms are in remembrance of an old friend.
Living amorously is in vain. The affairs of the world are constantly changing
My smitten heart never was reciprocated, but for the beauty, I willingly am wild, wild, wild
The wind is feeble; the heart cannot be consoled
For ten years, the warmth of the sun is spent only keeping watch outside the nunnery
The rain’s sorrow is multiplied with those dustless tears
The things of the world, many and deep, can end as, with a smile, the ruler is decided upon
(T/N: Sorry, it’s super choppy but if you wanna listen to the real song search up 世子賦心然 on youtube and click the first result)
