Chapter 43: Dream Creek
"Attend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. "Second brother of the prince" Everyone saluted the prince one after another.
Xuanyuan Che slowly walked in front of Shen Man'er and stood still, brushed a few of Shen Man'er's slightly messy hairs behind his ears with his hands, saw Shen Man'er's instantly flushed face, and didn't care about the surprised eyes of the people around him, took Shen Man'er's hand and walked to Shen Yibin's side and sat down.
The ladies of the official family were amazed when the prince suddenly appeared, and now they saw the prince treating his fiancée so gently, and their eyes were even more enthusiastic when they looked at the prince. The folk customs of the Great Jin Dynasty are quite open, as long as it is not too much, it is still okay for engaged men and women to hold hands with each other.
"Uninvited, third brother, I won't blame you. "Since the prince appeared, Xuanyuan Hao's face has almost caught up with Bao Gong.
"Second brother, how can you say this. The second brother can come, and the third brother is deeply honored. The second brother came at a good time. Xuanyuan Hao glanced at Shen Man'er meaningfully, but now it is rumored that Shen Man'er's piano skills are average, if it wasn't for the prince's bitter begging, how could Master Wuxin look at her differently. At first, I didn't believe it, but today I just wanted to test it. I don't want Shen Man'er's performance just now, which proves that the rumors are not groundless.
"Oh, what a good thing to be appreciated by the third brother. "Xuanyuan Che still doesn't know what the third man has in mind, just now the second dark guy added fuel and coolness to tell himself about the matter well. It's a pity that Xuanyuan Hao is destined to be disappointed, others don't know, but he knows very well, Shen Man'er is simply a genius who plays the piano. The song "Ambush on All Sides" in his previous life almost made him fall into the devil, otherwise he would not have asked the six-year-old Man'er to play it to himself, but unfortunately the six-year-old Man'er couldn't play one-ten-thousandth of his previous life.
"Miss Shen, can you start? Shen Man'er was still a little dizzy by the prince's action just now, and suddenly clicked on herself again, and her heart became irritable.
"I don't use that piano. Shen Man'er was annoyed when she looked at these people, and she lost the interest in making peace with them.
"Man'er is going to play the piano, I brought your Mengxi qin. Xuanyuan Che looked at Shen Man'er's face that darkened after he finished speaking, and knew that his Man'er was really angry this time, but he hadn't heard her play the piano for several years, and he really wanted to hear her play a song, even if it wasn't specifically for himself. Xuanyuan Che touched his nose, not daring to look at Shen Man'er's eyes, only thinking about how to make amends to her in the future.
Shen Man'er listened to the prince's gentle voice, but her heart became even more gloomy. Isn't this person's eyes good, can't you see that he doesn't want to play, even if his eyes are not good, his ears are not sick, can't he hear that he just rejected it thoroughly. She didn't even care if she offended the third prince, anyway, it wasn't the first time, wasn't this person her fiancé, why did she come to find a block for herself.
"Zhu'er, go to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and bring my piano. Zhu'er saw someone coming over with the piano in her arms, so she hurriedly greeted her and took it and sent it to Shen Man'er. Shen Man'er sat in front of the piano, looking at the piano that she was very familiar with, but had never touched, just like looking at a familiar stranger. Shen Man'er stayed in front of the piano for half an hour.
Everyone only felt that in a short period of time, the atmosphere had become different, especially Shen Man'er, who was smiling just now, but now her face was full of anger. Everyone is puzzled, but some people are like a mirror.
Shen Man'er plucked the strings one by one, until the last note fell, and her hands were already flying on the piano. A piano sound fluttered out, and it turned out to be the same "Ambush on All Sides", and the piano speed seemed to be twice as fast as normal.
Everyone was still confused, and they found themselves suddenly surrounded by yellow sand. I only heard the noise of war drums, and the sound of horses' hooves came from all directions. The shouts of the soldiers, the sound of swords clashing, the sound of sharp weapons piercing into flesh and bones, and the sound of the neighing of war horses surrounded everyone, and there seemed to be countless ghosts flying towards them with their teeth and claws. A few timid young ladies were already trembling with fright, but they couldn't shout a word.
Just when everyone was about to be overwhelmed by the nightmare, Shen Man'er's playing stopped abruptly, because the prince's hand was pressed on Shen Man'er's hand.
Shen Man'er didn't know what had just happened, at first she just felt irritable, but then she found that she seemed to have fallen into a dream, in which she was the Yama who took people's lives, and when she reacted, she found that the prince was holding her hand and looking at her nervously.
Everyone gradually woke up from the nightmare, and they didn't understand what had just happened. Only a few people with better internal skills know. Although Shen Yibin's internal strength is not good, he is trying his best to endure, although he was also frightened by the nightmare just now, he is awake. Now when he looks at his sister's eyes, it becomes strange, he never knew that his sister would play the piano like this.
But the prince's eyes were full of worry when he looked at Shen Man'er. He knew that Shen Man'er's piano skills were extraordinary, but he didn't expect that this time it would be so tyrannical. If she hadn't interrupted halfway, not only the people around her would have been hurt this time, but even herself.
"Did Sister Shen play the piano just now, why don't I remember" A young lady suddenly asked, she found that she couldn't remember what had just happened.
"yes, I can't remember. What did we just do. Hey, isn't Sister Shen going to play the piano?" said another young lady as well.
"yes," "yes," "me too," and several people around chattered.
Wang Yueyin covered her tumbling chest, just now she didn't know why, she suddenly felt that her blood was surging, and a mouthful of blood was about to spurt up.
Jia Ao wasn't much better, he found that he was even gasping for breath now.
Shen Man'er listened to what the people around her said, and subconsciously glanced at the third brother, and saw that the third brother was bowing his head there and didn't know what to think. Next to the third brother, the third prince was looking at himself with slightly squinted eyes, and his eyes seemed to be like a leopard seeing his prey. Shen Man'er hurriedly withdrew her eyes, and saw that the prince was still looking at her intently. She didn't know where the confidence came from, but she firmly believed that the prince must have known what was going on just now.
"Sister Shen, did you play just now?" Qin Xiang asked in a low voice, they were all distracted just now, which was very rude.
"Miss Shen has finished playing just now, and she deserves to be praised by Master Wuxin back then. When I heard it today, it was worthy of its name. Xuanyuan Hao was taken aback just now, it seems that this Shen Man'er is really not simple, this woman must not stay.
Tang Yin didn't dare to be interested in anything else except literature, and he had no distractions, just now he just felt that the young lady was really playing well. And Murong Chuhao next to him looked at Shen Man'er with an interested expression, he didn't think that the person who could play such a tune would be an ordinary official lady. So Xuanyuan Che took every precaution, and let Murong Chuhao remember Shen Man'er by himself.
