Chapter 136: Requiem
"Don't you know about war all day long, how can you also know the piano?"
"The Six Arts of a Gentleman!"
"Well~~~ a product of elite education, it's not something that people like me can understand. ”
"When exactly do you want to touch it?"
"Don't be so stingy, such a big person, or a prince, why are you so slammed at the door, and there are a lot of pieces of meat to touch!"
"This king is afraid, if you touch it, touch it, you won't be able to find it tomorrow!"
"Hehe, no, it's inconvenient for people to hold such a big one!"
"How do you really want to take it away?!Give it back to this king!"
"Hey~~ Touch it again, stingy ghost!!"
Seeing Xiao Yichen press this zither with both hands on his knees, which is all over the body and carved with countless exquisite patterns, staring at himself with vigilant eyes, Yu Xiaoxiang's red lips pursed to a height of half a sky, and said angrily: "Stingy ghost, if you don't touch it, you can't touch it, it's always okay for people to play." ”
"It's okay to bounce a bullet, but don't push too hard, this kind of ink spider is extinct, and if it breaks, it's hard to even repair it. Xiao Yichen carefully admonished, and then put the guzheng on the stone table again.
"Got it. As long as she can satisfy her wishes, Yu Xiaoxiang doesn't mind being rampaged. A few strokes of indiscriminate playing, although it is not very good, but its own timbre is enough to make people addicted, and it also makes her mood a little better.
Shaking his head helplessly, he picked up the teacup on the stone table, he didn't think that the beauties around him would take the initiative to serve, or Xiao Yichen, who decided to do it himself, poured tea and asked sideways, "Why didn't you sleep and ran to the garden?"
"It's not your piano yet. After Yu Xiaoxiang replied very casually, she then asked, "What did you just play?"
"It's called 'Requiem'. Xiao Yichen said indifferently.
Although it was just a simple sentence, it made the small body on his side shake, and instantly squeezed to his stone bench and sat down, the jade hand had wrapped around his arm, and he looked around nervously, and found that the shadow of the swaying tree seemed to be a little terrifying Yu Xiaoxiang, swallowed his saliva and said tremblingly: "Half, three watches in the middle of the night, what kind of requiem do you play!"
"Haha, the eldest lady of the Yu family, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, turns out to be afraid!" Xiao Yichen seemed to have discovered a new world, and his laughter was full of hearty sounds.
"I'm afraid, what are you afraid of! Miss Ben is not afraid, she is worried that you are afraid!" Yu Xiaoxiang said with a stiff neck, but a gust of wind happened to blow, and the sound of salsa from the surrounding trees immediately made her small body stick to Xiao Yichen tighter.
"Silly girl. Reaching out and rubbing his head, Xiao Yichen smiled and said: "We Longhan people believe that after people die, the spirit will enter another world, which we call 'on the stars'. Requiem, just for the final send-off of those people, does not mean that they are here. ”
"That's not the same! Three watches in the middle of the night, what kind of requiem to play. Yu Xiaoxiang muttered dissatisfiedly, and in an instant seemed to think of something, looked up at the handsome face with a light smile on his face, and asked puzzledly: "Yes, why don't you sleep and come here to play the requiem?"
With a peaceful smile, Xiao Yichen's starry eyes looked at the night sky and the bright moon: "There are thousands of people who were ordered to be killed by this king today, even if they have done a lot of evil in front of them, but the death and sin are gone, they are worthy of listening to a song of requiem and walking into the stars." I also hope that if they really have an afterlife, they can remember the evil retribution in this life and be a good person in the next life. ”
There was a bit of pity in her beautiful eyes, and Yu Xiaoxiang subconsciously said: "They are bad people, if you kill them, you don't have to be sad." Besides, they should be even more grateful that they can hear your requiem. ”
The corners of his mouth flashed a charming smile, Xiao Yichen's hand gently straightened Yu Xiaoxiang's delicate body, and said softly: "This king is not sad, it's just a habit." Come, sit aside, we've got a guest coming. ”
"Hey, guest?" Yu Xiaoxiang raised his head and looked left and right, but he didn't find any figure, so he couldn't help but immediately shrink his head, looked at Xiao Yichen nervously and said, "You, don't talk nonsense! ”
No longer bothered to take care of Yu Xiaoxiang, Xiao Yichen picked up the folding fan on the stone table, opened it and shook it gently, and said in a loud voice: "Since the princess has arrived, why do you want to avoid it?"
A moment after the words fell, not far away, behind a decorative rockery taller than a person, the crystal's small body stepped out of the shadows.
"Others say that it is more difficult to assassinate His Highness than to ascend to the sky, I originally thought that His Highness was heavily guarded, but now I know that no one can get close at all. "The crystal is full of alien dragon Chinese, giving people a strange and wonderful attraction.
"The princess praised it falsely, but the king's ears and eyes are better than ordinary people. But you, princess, have you been disturbed by the king's music? Although Xiao Yichen said that he would make amends, he didn't even make the move to get up, and he didn't have any sincerity at all.
"Your Highness's Requiem is so subtle that it bothers me. It's just that I don't understand, even after those wicked people were killed, His Royal Highness gave him a requiem, why did my grandfather still force him to die when he had already surrendered?"
As if a little unexpected, Xiao Yichen froze slightly, and then said: "I thought the princess was here to ask, why didn't you rehabilitate your father and brother, but I didn't expect to ask my grandfather, which really puzzled the king." When your grandfather was beheaded by this king, you weren't born yet, right?"
"My father and brother's original purpose in raising troops was to make a living for the clansmen, and now that His Royal Highness has given an explanation to our clan and let those culprits be punished, then even if my father and brother are still labeled as traitors, I think they can also laugh at Jiuquan. Speaking of this, Crystal bit her lip and said with a reluctant face: "But why, a person who can play a requiem for the wicked, a very kind person, wants to force my grandfather to death?
"Do you really want to know?" The folding fan in Xiao Yichen's hand stopped shaking, and the gaze in his eyes became more calm.
"Yes, I want to know!" Crystal nodded vigorously, as if trying to express her heart with this gesture.
After standing up and walking slowly for three steps, Xiao Yichen raised his arm, stretched out a finger and said, "It's very simple, one reason, one word - profit!"
"Li?" Crystal obviously didn't understand what Xiao Yichen meant, and there seemed to be more doubts and incomprehension in those pink eyes.
However, at this moment, Xiao Yichen didn't seem to be in a hurry to give an answer, as if he wanted to let the crystal figure out the joints by himself.
