Cao Yi put his hands on the strings under the gaze of Yu Youwei and Jin'er, took a deep breath, and then closed his eyes.

"My sword, where to go, love and hate, love and love; My knife cuts through the sky, right and wrong, I don't understand. I am drunk, hazy, envy and resentment, illusory and empty; I wake up, a spring dream, life and death, everything is empty......" Cao Yi sang slowly along the lyrics in his heart, he could only rely on the melody of the song in his previous life, combined with the knowledge of music and piano skills he has learned for a period of time, and try to play this song.

So he sang the song in his heart, and slowly played the melody in his heart, because he was unfamiliar and injured, so Cao Yi played it intermittently, if he didn't love this song very much in his heart, and he wanted to hear this song in this world, he would definitely not be able to hold on.

Not to mention other people, even he frowned when he listened to the music he played, and finally finished playing the song, Cao Yi touched his nose a little embarrassed, and asked worriedly, "How is it?" Do you feel about the whole piece? ”

Yu Youwei frowned slightly, and said thoughtfully: "I can't say it, it seems that it is not the same as the qin music handed down from ancient times before, unlike the music composed by the previous qin masters, but the person who composed the music is a ...... who understands the rhythm."

"It seems to be ......," Yu Youwei said halfway, and she didn't know what words to use to describe it for a while.

"What seems like it?" Cao Yi asked eagerly.

"It seems that this person's music is very deviant, not according to the traditional score, but it should be nice to play!" After speaking, Yu Youwei said with a smile.

"Does it really sound good?" Cao Yi smiled embarrassedly, although he knew that he was playing ugly, but when he heard the word "good" from Yu Youwei's mouth, he was still happier in his heart.

"Childe, what I'm saying is that this song should sound good, not that you play it well, Childe!" Yu Youwei said seriously, and then she couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed out loud.

Cao Yi knew that he was teased and disliked, but he did play it badly, so he had to endure it silently: "Youwei, you come and play and try it, can you remember?" ”

"I remember, there are a few melodies before and after this piece that are repeated, so there is no problem at all." Yu Youwei gave Cao Yi a confident look, first helped Cao Yi to the recliner, and then sat in front of the piano by herself, and also learned from Cao Yi, first took a deep breath, and then closed her eyes and played.

From the moment Yu Youwei's fingers pressed the strings, the expression on Cao Yi's face became excited, because it was almost the same as the "Sword Like a Dream" he heard in his previous life, although there were still a few slight differences between him and before, but these were exactly the places where he didn't play well, and they should have been optimized and adjusted by Yu Youwei with her own piano skills.

After playing the song, Yu Youwei opened her eyes, with a look of expectation in her eyes, and asked, "Childe, how is it?" Is it similar to the remnants you've seen before? ”

Cao Yi nodded at Yu Youwei with an appreciative face, applauded and said: "Sure enough, it deserves to be called Jiangning's double master, just listening to my clumsy playing, you can interpret this piece so perfectly, but ......"

"But what?" Yu Youwei, who was originally squinted by Cao Yikua's eyes and looked like a kitten, instantly widened her eyes and asked urgently.

"Think it would be better to go a little faster?" Cao Yi said uncertainly.

"Really? Then I'll give it a try! Yu Youwei began to play again, this time deliberately speeding up.

Cao Yi squinted, lying on the recliner, basking in the sun while listening to Yu Youwei playing, his palms on his thighs, and his fingers rhythmically playing with the melody.

"How was this time?" Yu Youwei asked expectantly.

“very good！” Cao Yi praised happily.

"Van Rygud?" Yu Youwei repeated with a confused expression.

"Very good play!" Cao Yi explained.

"yes, hee-hee, that's good!" Yu Youwei had a happy smile on her face

"Senior brother, junior sister, what are you talking about?" Fei Haomiao's figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard, and what he said just now was what he said.

"Senior Brother Fei!" Cao Yi and Yu Youwei saw Fei Haomiao coming, and they all stood up and saluted.

"Don't, junior brother, lie down quickly, now you are sick." Fei Haomiao stepped forward quickly, and pressed Cao Yi to sit down and lie down again.

"It's okay, it's not good to lie down all the time, I'll just sit!" Cao Yi said with a smile.

Fei Haomiao first asked Cao Yi and Yu Youwei if they slept well last night, and then asked questions such as whether they were used to living in the Zhizhou Mansion, Cao Yi and Yu Youwei both smiled and said that the conditions in the Zhizhou Mansion were indeed better than those in Tongfulou.

"Senior brother, junior sister, teacher and sister, are they all okay?" Fei Haomiao said excitedly. Finally can justifiably call Lu Lao as a teacher, from a registered disciple to a beginner disciple, he has been waiting for more than ten years, if it weren't for Cao Yi's injury this time, he would definitely have left Chen Gong and Lu Xiaofeng, Wang Honghua and others yesterday to celebrate.

"It's all okay, the two teachers are in good health, as for the teacher, not only is the body great, I have to drink a small jar of wine every day, and the spirit is also very good, before I came to Yangzhou, I basically had to raise the bar from time to time......" Cao Yi smiled heartily.

"That's good, since I went to Yangzhou Governor last year, I passed through Jiangning to visit the teacher and my wife once, and I haven't been there since......" Fei Haomiao said with a wry smile.

"Senior brother, it stands to reason that Yangzhou and Jiangning are actually close, and it only takes six or seven days to reach it by land and water, so how can you ...... during the Chinese New Year," Cao Yi asked puzzled.

"Isn't this the only one so far......" Fei Haomiao said a little embarrassed. The teacher is still relatively traditional, and I am because my parents passed away early...... In addition, I was emotionally intelligent at the beginning, so I ...... Then the teacher always thinks that unfilial piety is the greatest, and the last time I went to visit, I got angry and said that I didn't have a family before I got married, and I shouldn't enter his house next time. ”

Cao Yi and Yu Youwei nodded, although they wanted to ask themselves what kind of emotional injury this senior brother was, which caused him to not have a family yet, but this is someone else's private matter, plus he has just recognized his senior brother and sister, at least he is not familiar enough to ask this question at present.

"Senior brother is actually not in the way, last year when I wrote "Crane Rushing to the Sky", the teacher also blasted me out and didn't let me in, I went five or six times or so, and then after the New Year, I went to pay New Year's greetings before letting me in, the teacher is still very good to our disciple, he is a knife mouth tofu heart, senior brother has time or to go to Jiangning to meet the teacher and the teacher." Cao Yi said with relief.

"Hmm!" Fei Haomiao nodded heavily, and said with a wry smile: "I was only a registered disciple before, and I am not as promising as you, junior brother, and my status in the teacher's mind is definitely not as high as that of junior brother." I'm not good at writing poetry, and I'm even worse at writing words, and the only thing I'm good at may be scientific research, and I have some talent for being an official......"

Cao Yi looked at his cheap senior brother dumbfounded, but he was sighing in his heart, this senior brother is the real king of forcing kings, look at what people say!

The dignified Yangzhou Zhizhou, in modern times, at least the secretary of the Yangzhou Municipal Party Committee, the key is that in this era, he is also in charge of the local army, that is to say, the number one military and political leader! Such a high-ranking official in Xinjiang said to you with a wry smile and self-deprecation, hey, I don't have any talent as you, I can't write poems and lyrics, I am good at taking the civil service exam, and I have some talent as an official, so I reluctantly became the secretary of the Yangzhou Municipal Party Committee!

Is this what a normal person should say?

Cao Yi shook his head unconsciously, sure enough, there are people outside the person, and there is force outside, and the invisible pretending to be forced is the most deadly, it is really endless! Cao Yi said with emotion from the bottom of his heart.

And Yu Youwei looked at Cao Yi's expression, and secretly covered her mouth and smiled, since she knew Gongzi, it was rare to see him with such a stunned and surprised expression, his senior brother who is a big official is really amazing!
