Chapter Thirty-Nine: Alone and Difficult to Play

The sea in spring was calm, and the captain was skilled, and the group did not have any seasickness after many days at sea.

Once there are signs of discomfort, the imperial doctor immediately came to see and take care of him, and smoked it with a thick peppermint mugwort leaf, and the straight people felt that they were back in winter, and they were immediately refreshed.

However, due to the limited conditions, there are not many activities that can be enjoyed on a daily basis. It's just that Jiang Li didn't like to have fun since she was a child, so she asked someone to bring a cabinet of books, which is the most commonly used pastime.

Stargazing on the sea has a special taste, every day, Jiang Li takes the palace maid and the scholar, and uses a set of telescopes provided by the West to gaze at the stars on the top floor of the imperial ship.

After three or five days like this, Jiang Li only felt bored and not interesting. Lu Wu had never looked for her, and he could only meet her by chance on the deck. Even if he saw it, it was Lu Wu who was deeply restrained and couldn't say a few words.

"Go get my harp." After lunch that day, Jiang Li was very happy, but he felt bored. She has always slept little, and she has never had the problem of spring sleepiness, although she has always had the habit of taking a lunch break in the past, but now she only feels dizzy and dizzy.

The palace people were all happy.

In fact, Jiang Li has excellent piano skills, and he has learned from the best musicians in the palace since he was a child.

Queen Sun's piano is excellent, she has a unique "scorched tail", and the world knows that the queen's piano skills are unparalleled. It's just that later, when Jiang Shuyue was six years old, she passed the piano to her only biological daughter, and since then, the sound of the piano has rarely been heard from Fengyi Palace.

Jiang Li has admired Queen Sun's astonishing Jiaowei piano sound since she was a child, and she has been practicing harder and harder. She has delicate skin since she was a child, and when she learned to play the piano at the age of four or five, she even sharpened her golden fingertips and blistered her hands with blood.

Several princesses of the same age played the piano with her. Jiang Li has been competitive since she was a child and does not want to be inferior. However, she is young and relatively slow to learn, so she can only put in several times more effort than others in her piano skills.

It is often tied with the most precious plaster, and after a few days, the skin breaks and bleeds again, and there is no time to scab over. In this way, until the age of eight or nine, the skin is a little rougher, but there are no more blisters, and only a thin layer of calluses that is difficult to eliminate.

When choosing the piano, she took a fancy to a "Duyou". This was originally locked in the piano room, and no princess or favorite concubine has chosen this rare guqin for many years.

First, the princess and the rest of the concubines were not qualified to use such a treasure; Second, although this guqin is good, but the name is too poignant, lonely and secluded, isn't it the meaning of living alone in a secluded palace?

The most taboo thing in the palace is the hoodoo, so no one wants to play this harp.

It's just that Jiang Li is a person in the Huangli Palace, and she should be lonely all her life, so she doesn't have to care.

This one has an excellent tone. Unlike Jiaowei's clear timbre, Duyou's voice is slightly thicker, but like a man's harp.

It was only later that Jiang Liqin, chess, calligraphy and painting were repaired, so he shifted his focus to the method of astrology. These are just extravagant pastimes.

Jiang Li's best thing is the song "Alpine Flowing Water", the alpine flowing water meets the bosom friend, this is the tragic story of the Boya Zhongzi period, but Jiang Li seems to know the deep meaning of it, and plays it like a complaint.

Later, she didn't want to play anymore because it was hard to find a soulmate.

After thinking for a while, a song "Flat Sand and Falling Geese" slowly sounded.

This guqin song is said to have been composed by the famous Chen Ziang. Originally, it was written about the autumn scene, the geese chirped from time to time, and the geese circled in the sky, and the tune was melodious and smooth. With a solo play, it seems that the sound is endless, and the movement and stillness are appropriate.

What is the ambition of the bird?

Jiang Li closed his eyes, and the original lofty and far-reaching song was played with the deep meaning of ups and downs, ups and downs of life. This woman, who looked weak, played such a melody. Borrowing the wild goose's ambition, the heart of the righteous man. People can't help but applaud when they hear it.

After these few passages were played, the palace maids standing beside them were stunned. It wasn't until someone on deck clapped their hands that the silence was shattered.

In the study on the eighth floor, Jiang Li walked to the window and looked down, and above the deck, only two men stood out.

One of them, just looking at his figure, is all too familiar.

Needless to say, it's Lu Wu.

Another...... Jiang Li took a closer look, and the frost beside him reminded: "My lord, this is the eldest son of the right prime minister's family, Lord Zhang Tingyun." ”

Jiang Li nodded and smiled at the two people below, and turned her head slightly to ask the palace maid on the side: "But is that Zhang Gongzi who wants to take Caiping's wife as a concubine?"

Rin Shuang said yes, and Jiang Li couldn't help but feel cold in his heart.

In Ni Caiping's case, I am afraid that the "nobleman" referred to in her diary is this Lord Lu Wu and Lu nine times out of ten.

can know the ugly things of Wang Songbai's family, can easily rummage over the authority and is well-informed, and can also do things carefully, except for Lu Wu, Jiang Li really can't think of a second person.

Cheng Lao Guoshi played with authority, intending to plot against the prince, with the late Zhang Guifei as the driving force.

And Ni Caiping is the bottom small piece that knocked down this huge building block.

Lu Wu revealed the secrets of the Wang family, weak willow and Fufeng to Ni Caiping one by one, causing Aunt Liu to learn the truth, and the entire Wang family was in chaos, which was the easiest to control at this time. To control the Wang family is to control Concubine Zhang Xian.

Naturally, the national teacher will not go out easily.

But Lu Wu is different.

He's young, he's handsome, he's hot-blooded.

He entered Shihanlin, had to socialize, and had free time, so he could naturally meet Ni Caiping.

And he read poetry and books, and his eloquence was excellent. Thinking about it, just a few words can make Ni Caiping's life worse than death......

Thinking of this, Jiang Li's heart trembled. If Zhang Tingyun knew that the woman he liked was actually murdered by the gentle gentleman in front of him, I wonder if he would also be crazy, and he would be worse than dead?

And at this moment, what kind of mentality does Lu Wu have to talk and laugh with Zhang Tingyun?

Jiang Li didn't dare to think about it anymore, but just told herself that Lu Wu was the adopted son of the national teacher. Filial piety comes first, if Cheng Lao orders him to do things, he must also have no choice.

Or perhaps, Lu Wu was also used by Cheng Lao, and he didn't know the benefits and disadvantages of this interlocking link......

Jiang Li is just deceiving herself.

She smiled and got off the red carpet covered with gold threads, and slowly descended downstairs to the deck with the help of Jiang Xue.

The scenery is excellent, but it doesn't have a wide view from the top floor, she thought to herself.

The palace maids serving on the deck saluted one after another, and Lu Wu and Zhang Tingyun also saluted as usual. The clever little eunuch took the rosewood carved pear flower wooden chair that Jiang Li was sitting on and placed it in a cool place. The palace maids came to serve tea and snacks, but Jiang Li didn't have much appetite.

"Did the adults just play "Flat Sand and Falling Geese"? The virtuoso skills are truly unparalleled in the world! Zhang Tingyun spoke first, breaking the silence.

Jiang Li smiled and nodded, slightly happy in his heart: "Does Zhang Gongzi also know this song?" Although this song is widely circulated in Yangdu, the key to it is really subtle and indescribable. In the future, I can discuss it with you. ”

It was a beautiful afternoon, and no one paid attention to Lu Wu's face. Maybe no one has paid attention to it all along, but today Jiang Li has never secretly looked at him again.
