In the middle of summer, the morning glow that has just reflected red on the horizon also reveals a sweaty heat, and the hoarse screams outside the window add to the annoyance. The sticky feeling of the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info sweat stains makes people wake up early in the morning, and they can't sleep anymore, just thinking about taking a refreshing shower with cold water.

Shang Liyan, who was full of anger, pulled all the long hair that made people angry on the top of his head, and simply inserted a silver hairpin. If there is still air conditioning in modern times, if you are busy and have no time, you will simply cut it off, but now, this woman has long hair, and she is afraid that the maintenance is not good enough, and she will always nourish it with hair oil, but in her opinion, leaving this green hair in this hot summer is simply torture for herself. But his arms couldn't twist his thighs, so he could only pull his head up in a sullen manner, in exchange for a slight coolness of his neck. Naturally, this raunchy appearance is exchanged for a wordiness of green sleeves. However, she has learned not to care, if she really wants to fight with Green Sleeves, it will be a lot more to fight.

She has been studying with Master Lu for more than a month, and she found that she was stuck in the time when she stayed up late to do her homework when she was in college, and Master Lu was a relatively responsible master, but in Shang Liyan's opinion, she was too responsible, so she didn't have any time to breathe. Every morning to learn music theory, a bunch of palace merchants horn Zhengyu, look at her head is big, in the afternoon is to practice the piano, as a result of her fingers that have not touched the strings for a long time are scarred. This is not counting, the problem is that she is not used to reading the music scores in ancient times, and she has to translate the music score ideas given to her by Master Lu into staves, which makes it even more difficult for her, at that time people were all using brushes, and this thing is really not very easy to draw lines, there is no way, so she has to cut the charcoal of the thrush in the makeup box and use it, and as a result, a charcoal was drawn by her within two days, and only one charcoal head remained. Let the green sleeves muttered for a while, obviously the girl doesn't have a thrush much, why is this charcoal gone so quickly, and I have to go to Sister Yun to ask for it.

The things used by the little girl who didn't go to the front yard in this garden are all shared, and when they are used up, they can only care about Sister Yun, but this charcoal is used so quickly, how can she tell Sister Yun. Said the girl ate the charcoal?

Shang Liyan didn't think about it so much, but every night, he lit the lamp, drove the green sleeves to sleep, and under the lamp, little by little, he turned the music score into his usual stave, which could not be discovered, so he had to think of a way to tie the white paper together with sewing threads to make a booklet, and slowly translate the music score taught by Master Lu. This translation process was enough for her to memorize the score, but she couldn't let Master Lu find out that she had memorized it, and she still had to put on a show when it came time to practice, so as not to expose herself. The sheet music stuffed in the pillow was stored there in case it was needed later. It's Green Sleeves, after watching for a long time, I have also learned a lot of things, Shang Liyan sometimes teaches her, Green Sleeves is a very perceptive girl. For more than a month, the piano has been played quite decently. And Shang Liyan also forced herself to stay at an average of five seconds for one tone. Torture both oneself and the ears of others.

"Girl! After freshening up, let's go to the East Courtyard. It's time for Master Lu to arrive. Green Sleeves looked at Shang Liyan who was sitting on the bed in a daze with dissatisfaction, and his small mouth was high, like a red cherry. She knows that Shang Liyan has a good temper, so sometimes she is anxious for her, not to mention, she herself likes to listen to Master Lu's teaching, and she has a lot of questions to ask every time, but she doesn't dare, she is just a little girl, but the girl is always absent-minded, and every time she puts on a posture of sitting upright, in fact, she doesn't know where her heart has flown to. She knew that the girl understood everything, but she didn't want to show it, there were a few times when the girl she didn't understand said that she was clear, and she also knew that the girl was much better than herself, but every time Master Lu took the test, the girl made a picture of not understanding anything, Master Lu was about to die of anger, and the girl was not worried. I really don't know what the girl thinks.

"Well, that's fine. I know you're in a hurry, but Master Lu likes you very much, and always praises you for being smart. Shang Liyan smiled in understanding, she didn't quite understand the mentality of the green sleeves, is it really that good to be a red girl in the green building?

"Girl, don't laugh at me, in fact, I know, Master Lu taught, you understand everything, but you just don't show up, I really don't understand what you think, girl?" Green Sleeves muttered dissatisfiedly, she couldn't see the girl abusing herself, and she was obviously so clever that she wanted to pretend to be a fool.

"Green sleeves, you must remember what I told you, you must not tell Sister Yun about this matter, and no one can say it, you know? I can teach you what you want to learn, but you can't tell anyone, okay? Shang Liyan took Green Sleeves' hand and looked at Green Sleeves with a straight face, in fact, she also understood that Green Sleeves went in and out of her side every day, and she couldn't hide some things from her, so she could only pray that Green Sleeves would look at the incense for more than a year and not tell anyone.

"Girl, why is this difficult, if you let Sister Yun know, I don't know how much temper she will have!" Green sleeves looked at Shang Liyan puzzled, maybe she was suffering, and she didn't feel that there was anything bad about being a red sister when she had a good life, but she felt that it was a good thing to have a bowl of rice to eat and earn some money to prevent old age in the future.

In this world, girls from poor families are like this, some can marry an honest man, husband and son for a lifetime, pointing to their son to support the elderly, worse, if there is some beauty, it is given to someone as a concubine, if there is a son and a half daughter, the second half of the life will have to rely on, if it is normal, or it is to support the family was sold to be a girl, to the older, casually with a small girl, it can be regarded as a family, and then the poor family is really poor, like green sleeves, in order to survive was sold to the green building, the color is usually made a girl, A lot of girls have become girls, this life, that's it, if someone takes a fancy to it, redeeming it as a concubine is also a result, more, just earn some money and put it in your hands to prevent old age. Living alone for a lifetime is better than starving to death.

"I don't want to live like this, Green Sleeves, you understand? I want to live a free life, to decide my own path, not to be at the mercy of others, to walk around the world and see the outside world. Green Sleeves, do you want to go? Shang Liyan looked out the window longingly, her eyes were full of longing light, and the whole person seemed to be about to fly away.

"Girl--" Green Sleeves was stunned, she had never seen Shang Liyan like this, she had always been indifferent, she didn't care about anything, she didn't seem to care about everything, but now the girl was shining light from the inside out, as if she had come to life all of a sudden.

"Okay? Green Sleeves! Can you promise me? Shang Liyan looked at Green Sleeves hopefully, she knew that Green Sleeves was a kind girl. So, she needs to take a gamble. Trade your knowledge for an ally. After all, it's too easy to be spotted alone.

"Alright! All right! I promise you, girl, but you also have to promise Green Sleeves, you can't run secretly, in that case, if you are found by Sister Yun, she will beat you to death! Green Sleeves looked at Shang Liyan worriedly, thinking of the girl's yearning gaze just now when she looked out the window, she was really worried that the girl would make a confused decision, what freedom and what the outside world, she didn't understand, she just wanted to have a full meal, but the girl was different from her, the girl didn't want to live such a life, she would help her, but she didn't want the girl to do anything that would hurt herself.

"Girl, it's time for us to go to the East Courtyard, Master Lu should be in a hurry." Green Sleeves packed up the small basket in his hand, put pen and ink and music scores into the basket, and urged Shang Liyan.

Shang Liyan was relieved at this time, and quickly changed into a light silk short shirt, lined with a close-fitting gown, no way, I have to wear it even if it's hot! Otherwise, it's all gone, and there is a pair of close-fitting underpants underneath, and then she wears a pleated skirt, this pleated skirt is she picked out for a long time, the color is not too bright, so as not to look hot, and the material is light enough, cool enough, she has been crazy by this weather, although she has stayed for a year, but this summer still makes her unbearable, she is extremely afraid of heat, but here she can't wear those cool clothes, which makes her depressed and crazy.

"Let's go! I'm already sweating, and I'm still cooler in the kiosk on the lake. Shang Liyan stretched out his hand and pulled the green sleeves and walked out quickly, wanting to reach the pavilion before the sun rose, so as not to suffer from being exposed to the sun.

＊＊＊＊＊＊

Hurriedly swallowing the breakfast in his mouth, Shang Liyan had already seen a figure standing in the small pavilion from afar, and he couldn't see who it was in the light, but he knew with his toes that it must be Master Lu.

Since accepting Sister Yun's entrustment, this Master Lu can be said to have done his best, waiting for Shang Liyan in the small pavilion before dawn every day, and after class in the morning, he would go to Sister Yun to stay for a while to communicate with Sister Yun about her "education issues", but Shang Liyan always slandered that this was Master Lu looking for an excuse to approach Sister Yun.

"You're late!"

As soon as he stepped into the pavilion, Shang Liyan was greeted with a cool greeting, like a basin of cold water splashing on his face, but he could not achieve the physical cooling effect of cold water.

Shang Liyan smiled awkwardly, so she had to bow slightly, and quickly sat down at the small table in the pavilion with Green Sleeves, who hurriedly put the pen and ink on the table.

Master Lu wore a blue round-necked robe today, with some faint clusters on the fabric, which could be seen to be a good material, which made him look more and more heroic, but at his feet was leaning on a long strip of brocade wrapped object, which should be a piano in shape.

"Humph!"

A cold snort came out of his nose in dissatisfaction, and Lu Yunqian picked up the brocade bag at his feet and put it on the table.

Green Sleeves hurriedly cleaned up the table out of an open space, and helped Master Lu take out the piano from the bag and lay it flat on the table.

"Green sleeves, put away the pen and ink on the table, today, the master wants to test how well your girl learns the piano." Master Lu gestured to the green sleeves with a pleasant face.

"Yes." The green sleeves were slightly blessed, and then neatly cleaned up the things on the table.

Shang Liyan stood up and stepped aside, embarrassed to watch Green Sleeves clean up the table. It's not that she doesn't want to help, Greensleeves never lets her touch these chores, so she often sighs that she has been spoiled.

"Sit down, try the piano first." As soon as he turned his face, Master Lu had a frosty face, for Shang Liyan's apprentice, he was already very sad, he really didn't understand why she looked so stupid when she looked smart, it had been more than a month, but she hadn't even been able to play even a single tune smoothly.

Shang Liyan sat at the table, raised his hand and plucked it lightly on the strings: "Zheng--"

The aftermath is lingering, and there is a faint sound of gold and stone.

"Good piano!" Shang Liyan couldn't help but praise softly, even in modern times, there are not many pianos that can produce such a pure tone, and then look closely at the body, on the fine paulownia wood, with a layer of varnish, you can see the texture of the tree, and the surface of the piano has a faint layer of mellow luster, which seems to be because it is often rubbed by hand. The sixteen strings on the piano are all carefully selected from the horsetail, and the roots are taut, so it can be seen that this qin is a commonly used thing.

"This is the piano I used when I played music for the emperor in the palace, let me try it today, see if you have progressed, you can be careful, don't neglect this piano." Master Lu showed a proud look on his face, this is for the emperor to play music, and he has high hopes for you to practice the piano! You have to be careful.

"Yes!" Shang Liyan stubbornly agreed, but he smiled bitterly in his heart, this qin is good, but today he can only offend it once.

Putting the ruler score in front of him, he chose the simplest tune, Shang Liyan raised his hand to make a gesture, pressed on the strings, and played it at a speed comparable to turtle speed, but even at such a slow speed, there were several mistakes in the middle, and for a while, the sparse sound of the piano echoed in the small courtyard, cruelly torturing the ears of the little girl practicing in the courtyard and the two people closest to the pavilion.

"Enough!" Lu Yunqian looked at Shang Liyan with a blushing face, and shouted unbearably.

He's reached his limit, and he's going to have to go crazy if he continues to toss with her.

The other girls in the courtyard have been led out by the sound of the piano, this month, the yard has been rumored for a long time, saying that the new Lan Xin girl is a fool, she has been playing the piano for almost two months, but she can't even play a tune, even the little girl named Green Sleeves next to her is better than her!

The doors of the houses in the courtyard were full of people, talking to each other, whispering, among them, there was no lack of schadenfreude, too, who made this Lan Xin different from everyone else in the first place! The other girls are a large group of people who follow the master and watch their own creation, but she is good, the number one musician in the palace specially invited has learned to be like this, it seems that Sister Yun has lost a lot this time!

Green Sleeves looked at Master Lu with some hesitation, do you want to talk to the master? But the girl won't let me! She looked at Shang Liyan's piano with some envy, how much she wanted to play! She knew that the girl could play better than her, and the girl once played a short section for her, and that was when she got the wrong technique, and she played it herself, but the girl played it for her, and taught her hand in hand, and she practiced for several days. But after that, the girl refused to play again. No one knew that the girl could play the piano, and that she could play it very well.

Lu Yunqian rubbed the corners of his forehead, and inadvertently saw the longing eyes of the green sleeves, and his heart moved, and he said immediately:

"Green Sleeves, you play!"

"Huh?" Green Sleeves was stunned, the master told me to play?

"Green Sleeves! Come and sit down! The master told you to play it! Shang Liyan stood up with relief, pulled the green sleeve over, and pressed her to the small stool. She was really a little afraid of Master Lu's eyes, if her eyes could kill people, she was afraid that she would have died no less than a hundred times.

"Green sleeves, you play the song that Miss Lan Xin played just now, you play it again." Master Lu tried his best to relax his tone, he liked this little girl very much, she was a very hard-working disciple, and she was also very understanding, not like Lan Xin, no matter how she could teach, thinking of Lan Xin, he sighed weakly.

"Yes, master!"

Green Sleeves looked at the piano in front of her a little nervously, she had never played it in front of the master, she used to let her play it when the girl practiced the piano in the afternoon, and this piano was so valuable, what if it was broken?

"Don't be afraid, Green Sleeves, if the master asks you to play, you will play!" Shang Liyan encouraged her softly behind her back, although she didn't want to show her skills, she liked to see the green sleeves looking at Qin's eyes shining, everyone has to have some ideals in order to live a full life.

"Hmm!" Green Sleeves turned his head to look at Shang Liyan, turned around, took a deep breath, and put his hand on the strings.

"Ding Dong--" A clear spring-like music flowed out from under Green Sleeves' hands, the one Shang Liyan played was the simplest song, which didn't require too complicated skills, compared to the effect she played, Green Sleeves was playing it now.

Although the technique is still a little jerky, it is already quite good for a person who has only been exposed to the guzheng for more than a month. After playing the song, Green Sleeves reluctantly put down his hand and looked at Master Lu timidly.

Master Lu's eyes flashed with an unexpected light, this little girl had never played in front of him, he just saw that she was very interested, and she didn't expect much to do it originally, but now it seems that he and Luoyun have ignored a piece of jade!

"Bang Bang!" A burst of applause came from the direction of the courtyard gate, followed by a burst of "Hehehe! chuckles.
