220. Chapter 220: The Sound of the Guqin
This is what she hates the most, those women who are willing to save as aunts because of the so-called love for Prince Jane, so she has to take care of it, for her main identity, the children born to these women are also because they are the flesh and blood of Prince Jane, she has to take care of them.
It is her greatest wish to make her children live more comfortably.
Jin Xi accompanied Jian Ye who went out to return to the mansion, that day Jian Ye left Jian Wang's Mansion and asked him to take Zhao Jiangxuan out for a banquet, and then did not return, Jian Ye had his own courtyard outside Jian Wang's Mansion, which was cleaned up very well, and sometimes he would take Zhao Jiangxuan to live there and live a few days without being disturbed.
Today's return is to come to the house to pick up a few things, but also Zhao master to the master to pick up, speaking of which, his own master to this Zhao master has always been quite accommodating, rarely do not meet the requirements of Zhao master, and even a little too favored, never accept a new concubine, before the master will be a little confidant.
"Master. Jin Zhong happened to meet head-on, immediately stopped, and said respectfully.
"The house is so lively?" Jian Ye smiled slightly, "Is my mother having a banquet for the wives of some officials in the capital again?"
"Yes. "Jin Zhong has been following Rong Qingyi to deal with things in the past few days, and this is also the first time he has seen Jian Ye after leaving Jian Ye," said that there was not enough wine, so he wanted to get some smaller ones. β
Jian Ye smiled, knowing that her mother would drink a few glasses when she was happy, her mother's alcohol was good, even her father couldn't drink her mother in this regard, "I still have a few pots of good wine there, take them and send them." It's just that it also depends on it, my mother is old, and drinking too much is not good for her health, by the way, what she has done for her mother in the past few days is still satisfactory to her old man. β
As he was talking, there was a faint melodious guqin sound, the sound was very clear in the sun, as if a sudden chill hit the face, clean and clean like the sound of spring water falling on the rocks in the mountains.
Jian Ye was stunned, immediately stopped talking, and listened for a while, "Is it the pianist invited by my mother?"
Jin Zhong's face changed, he secretly glanced at Jian Ye, and then quickly glanced at his brother Jin Xi, it seems that Jian Ye is in a good mood today, but if Jian Ye knew that the sound of this guqin was played out by Rong Zhu, who he disliked the most, or was released by Princess Jian from the backyard without his consent, would he be furious?
"Well, this, the small one is not clear. Jin Zhong said reluctantly.
Jin Xi immediately understood that most of the sound of the piano was related to Rong Qingyi, although Jin Zhong was asked by Rong Qingyi to deal with the affairs of the Rong family's old courtyard and concealed it from Jian Ye, but when Jin Zhong came back every night, he would still talk to his brother about what happened that day, and this would also talk about Rong Qingyi, and Jin Zhong told him.
"Master Rong is very talkative, in fact, she rarely speaks, she is always quiet, I am afraid that she has been locked up in the backyard for a long time. But, even though she always had a shallow smile on her face, I was still afraid of her from the bottom of my heart, I was really afraid. "When Jin Zhong said this, the expression on his face was really scared, it was not afraid of something terrible, but the awe that came from his heart," I always feel that Master Rong is a master who seems to be quiet and silent, and even a little weak, but in fact he is very smart, but he is too lazy to care about these things, according to my experience, I used to think that Master Rong was a stupid and indisputable stupid master, but now I have a wife myself, I think, it is more likely that Master Rong is unwilling to care about our master's affairs. β
Listening to Jin Zhong's wordy endlessly, Jin Xi never understood what his younger brother was afraid of, he knew that his younger brother was afraid of heights all his life, and when he reached a high place, he was dizzy and unpleasant, but he had never seen him afraid of anyone. Even if it is the current Master Zhao, the younger brother can handle it easily, and coax Master Zhao to reward him with some objects from time to time.
However, there is one thing he knows that Jin Zhong expressed very clearly, not words, but expressions, that is, Jin Zhong is very in awe of Rong Qingyi.
Jian Ye didn't pay attention to Jin Zhong's answer, nor did he notice the embarrassed expression on his face, and quietly listened to the sound of the piano for a while, and then, after about half a cup of tea, the sound of the piano stopped, and when he stopped, he felt that all the other sounds were noisy and uncomfortable.
"Well, it's really good. Jinzhong, you go and get the wine. Jinxi, let's go and see which luthier my mother has invited. Jian Ye said with a smile, "It's the first time I've heard such a beautiful piano sound." β
Jin Zhong opened his mouth and looked at Jin Xi blankly, Jin Xi was also a little hesitant, looking at his younger brother's appearance, he could guess that the one who stroked the piano just now must be Rong Qingyi, if the master saw it in the past, he must not make trouble? !
Jian Ye had already walked towards the courtyard where Princess Jian was entertaining guests, and Jin Xi didn't care about talking to Jin Zhong, so he nodded to his younger brother in a hurry, and quickly followed Jian Ye in front.
Now that this is the case, I can only take one step at a time, I hope that for the sake of Princess Jane and the faces of the officials and wives who came to the banquet, the master will not be angry in front of him, although this situation has happened before, the master once made Rong Qingyi disappear from his eyes immediately in front of everyone.
I hope it won't be this time!
In the hall, Princess Jian and a few officials and wives who have a good relationship are talking and laughing, there are no outsiders, everyone has always been familiar, so they are very casual, the wine and food on the table, everyone has a little light rosΓ© on their faces, and the smiles are also piled up in the corners of their mouths and eyes.
"Princess, your daughter-in-law's guqin is really good, I think we are talking very loudly now. An elderly lady praised and said, "No wonder you refuse to invite a violinist to come over, even if you look all over the capital, there are few people who can have such piano skills as your daughter-in-law." β
Princess Jian is quite proud, I didn't expect Rong Qingyi's piano skills to be so good, when Rong Qingyi first married into King Jian's mansion, there were some bad rumors about her, although I knew that this girl was unlucky, but it was not good to take her to appear in front of relatives and friends, she was also shy, usually mostly avoided, later, occasionally there were some things that needed her to come forward, especially in terms of money, it was inevitable to rely on the ability of the Rong family, I don't remember if she played the piano in front of everyone.
It only seems to remember that his daughter-in-law is quite accomplished in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and it was the Rong family who invited the best master in the capital to teach, and listened to her master who taught her that she was a smart person, and she could learn it as soon as she learned it, but unfortunately, she has not been favored by her youngest son, and after a long time, she forgot to ask her to show her to relatives and friends who came to the house.
Especially in the last two years, Zhao Jiangxuan married into King Jian's Mansion and became Ye'er's side room, although it was a side room, it was much more beautiful than Rong Qingyi's main room.
Speaking of which, Rong Qingyi has been married to Jian Ye for ten years, and has never had children, listening to Meng Longhui's meaning, it is her daughter-in-law who cannot give birth, but from the perspective of a person who has come over, Rong Qingyi does not seem to be for this reason, especially looking at her figure, soft and slender, and her daughter's shyness and introverted, this does not seem to be a woman who has become a wife.
She was actually a little skeptical that Jian Ye had told Meng Longhui to say this.
Glancing at Rong Qingyi on the side, she was quietly packing up the guqin, her expression was calm, she didn't seem to hear the praise of everyone just now, and it seemed that this qiΔ had nothing to do with her, so she was a little distressed, I was afraid that this child had been locked up in the backyard for a long time, and her temperament was also light, so she didn't blame her in her heart.
"Come, sit down, stroke the piano, I'm tired. Princess Jian smiled slightly, and said in a gentle tone, "Luan'er, make a pot of good tea again, Qingyi doesn't like to drink, make her a pot of tea she likes." β
"Yes. Luan'er agreed, took the tea leaves and put them in the pot, looked up, her face changed, and blurted out, "Little boy, you, why are you free? Princess, the little boy is here." β
Princess Jian was stunned, looked up at Jian Ye who had just walked into the hall door, and quickly glanced at Rong Qingyi who was sitting next to her, she seemed to be a little surprised, looked up at the direction of the hall door, her face was a little pale in an instant, she couldn't say whether she was panicked or sad, but she quickly got up from the seat she was sitting on, and walked to the side of the most remote corner, if you don't look carefully, you can't see her at all.
Princess Jane let out a long sigh, her heart tightened slightly, and she suddenly remembered her daughter Jian Ning, who was married far away, when she first married into that distant country, did her daughter also be so flustered and didn't know what to do? She was in tears.
At this time, Rong Qingyi should be the appearance of her daughter Jian Ning when she first got married.
Several officials and wives in the hall have a good relationship with Princess Jane, and they also know that Jian Yeji, the little prince in the palace, does not like Rong Qingyi's main room, and now he is even more protective of the young side room Zhao Jiangxuan, speaking of which, these people are the main room of the family, and their father-in-law also has a young side room that is being pampered, Zhao Jiangxuan is seven or eight years younger than Rong Qingyi, this is the best time of youth, Rong Qingyi is already twenty-five or sixteen, and he is shy and quiet by nature, so naturally he can't win the likable Zhao Jiangxuan.
Everyone thinks so, in fact, they don't have much contact with Zhao Jiangxuan, they only know that she is a lively and lovely woman, although she was born to Mrs. Rong's eldest brother's aunt, and she was born, but she was very loved by Jian Ye, but such a side room took away the status of the main room, which made these main rooms naturally extremely uncomfortable in their hearts.
Seeing that Rong Qingyi deliberately avoided it, several officials and wives felt pity in their hearts, and they couldn't help but pretend not to see it, and looked at Jian Ye who walked into the hall.
"Mother. Jian Ye smiled and walked to the table where Princess Jian was sitting, and sat down next to Princess Jane, "I am drinking and having fun here behind my father's back, be careful that my father knows and wants to talk about you again." β
