Ruoying held the piano and followed a small servant to the side room.

"The two sons in the wing room today are both noble people, you must play the piano well, but you can't make the two sons unhappy." The little guy still told me uneasily.

Ruoying didn't answer him, just walked quietly behind him.

The little guy stopped: "This is it." ”

Ruoying raised her head, and at first glance she saw the cold wind guarding the door, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

Han Feng didn't expect that the person who came to play the piano today was Ruoying, and he was a little surprised, but his face didn't show it, as if he had never known Ruoying.

The little guy pushed open the door, and Ruoying walked in with the piano in her arms.

Because there was a curtain in the middle, Wen Zhiyu couldn't see who the person who came in couldn't see who it was, but judging from her figure, it should be a woman.

"This is the best geisha playing the piano in the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion today, and with good wine, it is natural to have a beautiful piano sound as a companion." Wen Zhiyan explained.

Wen Zhiyan didn't say anything, Wen Zhiyan ordered: "You play a song that you are most familiar with." ”

Ruoying had already put the piano away, and after she sat down, she started playing the piano directly.

Ruoying chose a peaceful and melodious tune, her piano skills are indeed outstanding, and even Wen Zhiyu admires her a little.

At the end of the song, Wen Zhiyan asked, "How?" ”

"Not bad!" Wen Zhiyu replied.

Wen Zhiyan smiled: "This king also thinks it's good, this geisha not only plays a good piano, but even looks very outstanding." ”

"Listening to the sound of the piano to distinguish people, this girl's appearance should not be bad. But it's okay to enjoy the music, it's no better than seeing people again. ”

As soon as Wen Zhiying's words fell, a little servant had already lifted the curtain, because Wen Zhiying's seat was facing the curtain, so he could see Ruoying's appearance at a glance.

Wen Zhiyu glanced at it lightly: "It's really good, but this king still thinks that the sound of the piano is even better." ”

"Really?" Wen Zhiyan asked, "Doesn't the third brother feel that there is some resemblance between her eyebrows and eyes?" ”

"There are so many similar people in this world, but what is the point of being similar but not her?" Wen Zhiyu asked rhetorically, "And Wan Yang is by the side of this king, what do you mean by deliberately letting this king see a person who is somewhat similar to her between her eyebrows and eyes?" ”

Wen Zhiyan didn't expect Wen Zhiyan to defend Lianzhi so much, he waved his hand, Ruoying was led out of the box, and the other little guys also left together.

"Do you know, there is another regent princess over there in Dongxia." Wen Zhiyan reminded him.

Wen Zhiyu glanced at him: "What does this have to do with this king?" ”

"Can't you still see that Dongxia has basically abandoned Lin Wanyang, and it is useless for you to keep her by your side."

"So what?" Wen Zhiyu asked, "Did you marry Qi Zhaoyu because she was useful?" ”

Wen Zhiyan's smile was mocking: "It's all princes, there's no need to pretend to be stupid about these things, right?" I got the news in advance, so I told you not to take it too seriously. Don't wait until your father knows the news, it's too late for you to regret it. ”

"Thank you for the reminder. But in this world, if it is not similar and can be replaced, if it is not that person, then everything is meaningless. Wen Zhiyan said seriously, Wen Zhiyan only thought that he was pretending in front of him.

At the beginning, he liked Lingzhu so much, but in the end, he had to push Lingzhu into a predicament because of interests. Being in the royal family was originally full of helplessness, and he never regretted his choice, because he knew his goal.

So he believes that Wen Zhiyu has the same goal as him, and in order to achieve this goal, he can give up all the people around him.

And Wen Zhiyu's current outrageous words are only because he has not really faced the predicament.

"It's this king who drank wine today and talked a lot." Wen Zhiyan said with some self-deprecation, "Don't talk about these things, drink." ”

Wen Zhiyu didn't say anything, but just took a sip or two from time to time.

Wen Zhiyan's purpose for inviting him over today, he probably guessed it.

Wen Zhiyan deliberately revealed to himself that Dongxia had set up another regent princess, just to arouse his own doubts, so as to suspect that the original princess of Zhenguo, Lin Wanyang, had been abandoned by Dongxia. When his father knows the news, he will definitely not give the current crown princess any good face, and he will also be implicated by the crown princess.

Wen Zhiyan wanted to let herself take the initiative to give up Lianzhi, but not to mention that Lianzhi was abandoned by Dongxia, even if she was not a real princess from the beginning, she would never abandon her!

Ruoying breathed a sigh of relief when she walked to the backyard. She placed the piano in the gazebo, then walked to the edge of the pond, and sighed as she looked at her face reflected in the water. This face was too beautiful, and it brought her a lot of trouble, if she could, she still wanted to immediately Qinjiang Chu Pavilion as soon as possible.

Back then, her mother was a geisha in the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion, and her piano skills were enough to impress everyone, and I don't know how many men liked her. But the mother fell in love with a poor man, and the mother used all her savings to redeem herself and follow the man away desperately, and since then, the mother has never touched the piano again, and the years of hard work have made her hands no longer slender, and even her body is a lot more bloated.

Among Ruoying's few memories of her mother, she remembers that on the coldest winter night, her mother held her in bed and shivered, and the torn quilt at home was not enough to keep out the cold. And her father, who is addicted to gambling and can't extricate himself, will only punch and kick his mother even when he comes back.

Later, a fire killed her father in her sleep, and her mother carried her out of the fire. But the mother had nowhere to go at all, so she could only take her young self back to the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion.

She remembers that when her mother came back with her, no one could recognize her as the geisha who had once made a name for herself in the capital.

In the end, her mother stayed and became the lowest-ranking rough envoy of the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion. Before she died, she gave her most cherished piano to Ruoying, and told Ruoying never to fall in love with anyone.

After her mother's death, the young Ruoying's life in the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion became even more difficult, and her temperament became more and more gloomy. But she inherited her mother's talent for piano skills, and she was willing to study and practice hard. After the disappearance of Ling Tan, when no one could afford the reputation of the top geisha of the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion, she ascended to the throne of the top geisha with her excellent piano skills.

All of this seems to be so beautiful, and now no one in the Qinjiang Chu Pavilion dares to bully her, and the son-in-law in Beijing is also extremely sought after by her. Presumably, her mother was like this back then, and if she hadn't fallen in love with her father, she wouldn't have ended up like that.

"Miss Ruoying." Cold Wind suddenly appeared behind Ruoying and shouted her name.

Ruoying turned around and saw that it was a cold wind, and she was in a trance for a moment.

Han Feng walked up to Ruoying and took out the silver coin: "Last time, Ruoying girl helped me give the windmill money, and I never had a chance to come out before, but this time I just have the opportunity to return it to you." ”

"A windmill, the cold wind boy still remembers it like this?"

"Cold Wind just doesn't want to owe someone something."

Ruoying didn't go to pick up the money, but asked a question: "Did you hear me playing the piano outside the door just now?" ”

Han Feng nodded: "Of course I heard it, Ruoying's piano sound is the best I have ever heard." ”

"That's it, I did you a favor last time, so you can help me again."

"Is there anything you need help with?"

"I made up a tune, but I don't know if it's good or not, would you like to listen to me play it once, if you have any suggestions, you can put it forward."

Han Feng hesitated a little: "This seems to be my advantage again, there should be a lot of people waiting outside to listen to you play the piano." ”

"They're all guests, you're different." Ruoying replied.

Cold Wind was puzzled: "Then who am I?" ”

"Although you and I don't see each other much, but you saved me the first time we met, and to me, you are a friend. In front of the guests, they can only hear the best sounds, but in front of their friends, they can hear flawed tunes, don't they? ”

Han Feng nodded: "I'm definitely willing to listen, but I'm a rough person, and I can't hear anything." ”

Ruoying didn't say anything more, but walked to the pavilion, sat down and began to play the piano.

When the first note came out, the cold wind heard a deep sense of sorrow.

Sure enough, this is a very sad song, and the cold wind hears the despair of a woman who longs for life and love, but in the end loses everything.

As the last note stopped, Ruoying's hand rested lightly on the strings: "How?" ”

"Why is this song so sad?" Hanfeng asked, and he felt panicked after listening to it.

"This is a piece I wrote for my mother, who was very bold, daring to pursue what she wanted, and having the courage to give up everything. It's a pity that her life, like this song, is full of sadness. Ruoying looked at the cold wind, "This song is still too sad and not suitable for guests." ”

"This piece is very good, and it shouldn't be easy for you to make it up."

"But it's so sad, and it's not like no one hears it, don't you hear it?"

Ruoying actually didn't think about playing this song to others from the beginning, but when she saw the cold wind, she suddenly decided to pop it out in front of the cold wind to listen to him.

Maybe she has the same fate as her mother, knowing that she shouldn't love anyone, but she just can't control her heart.
