Murong Zhining's body recovered quickly, and Imperial Physician Gao cleaned up the residual poisons in her body through acupuncture, and used a lot of good medicinal materials to recuperate, and after two months, Murong Zhining had a ruddy complexion and radiant complexion.

Cai Sang accompanied Murong Zhining to walk in the garden, in the palace in early autumn, the leaves of many trees had turned yellow and fell down one by one. The two girls were not as sad as the other women, and they happily grabbed the leaves fluttering in the wind with their hands, and laughed one after another. Murong Zhining and Cai Sang haven't been so happy for a long time, and the two girls, who have been used to suffering since childhood, enjoy the leisurely life in front of them.

Cai Sang looked at Murong Zhining with a smile: "Zhining, you are so good-looking! You don't look like an ordinary child, how can you be as miserable as me?" But now it's okay, you will definitely marry a powerful husband in the future." Murong Zhining pinched her little face: "You are also very good-looking, do you want to get married?" If the nurse hadn't been there to protect me, she wouldn't have died! I had hurt her! I was an ominous person, and no one who touched me would have ended well. Cai Sang grabbed Murong Zhining's hands and shook them coquettishly and said: "Finally, everything is developing in a good direction, you always think of something sad, if the nurse knows something, it will definitely be uncomfortable." Besides, the nurse is willing to give up your life for you, which means that you are very important to her, you have to live well, find an opportunity to uncover your own life experience, find out the murderer of the nurse, and let her die blindly. ”

Murong Zhining nodded approvingly: "Well, let's go to see the emperor, since the misunderstanding has been resolved, he should let us out of the palace." I'm going to go to Lotus Pond Pass first, the Yin family who took me in, their family is a good person, I want to report the safety of her family first, and by the way, find out who sold me to Wanhua Pavilion back then?" Cai Sang's eyes glared at the boss: "What? You are also from Hetang Ao? My aunt is also from Hetang Ao, also called Yin, and her man is a pig killer." ”

When Murong Zhining was in the Yin family, she heard the Yin family arguing with the butcher, talking about Yin's younger brother Yin Hua paying off his gambling debts and selling his daughter to others to make a maid ring, and it turned out that Cai Sang was the daughter who was sold by Yin Hua. Caisang is one year older than Murong Zhining, and Murong Zhining has to call her sister. The sisters hugged each other, and they both sighed for the wonder of fate. Cai Sang's eyes were red with excitement: "I will also accompany you to visit my aunt then." ”

Yan Feng heard a report from the palace people that Murong Zhining asked to see them, so he asked the palace people to lead them to the imperial study. Murong Zhining and Cai Sang bowed to Yan Feng, and Yan Feng asked them to stand and talk.

Murong Zhining lowered her eyes: "Thank you to the emperor for saving my life! Since the emperor has found out that I have no in-law relationship with the Zhuang family, I ask the emperor to be gracious, give the slave and the maid and Caisang a free body, and let us go out of the palace." ”

Yan Feng's voice was as cold as ever: "Are you so anxious to leave?" I just know that you are not pregnant, and as for the relationship with the dealer, it still needs to be verified, so you will live first." Murong Zhi condensed: "It's not difficult to verify, you just need to ask two more subordinates to confess." Or...... Slaves and maidservants can undergo another medical examination. ”

Yan Feng's face was gloomy and ruthless, he approached Murong Zhining, lowered his head and almost touched Murong Zhining's face. His icy eyes stared at her pair of apricot eyes, the natural majesty of the emperor made people tremble, and the powerful aura made the air seem to freeze. The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, and a needle drop could be heard: "How do I do things, do I need you to teach me?" Murong Zhining didn't dodge his fierce gaze, she looked at Yan Feng's deep black eyes calmly, and the two pairs of eyes looked at each other for a long time.

Yan Feng suddenly realized that this was the first time that someone dared to look directly into his gaze. There is no second person in the world who dares to look at him for so long. This little woman is really not simple. "I've been busy lately and don't have time to deal with this. Yan Feng retracted his gaze first as if defeated, and ordered the guards around him: "Send them back to Qixiang Palace." ”

Murong Zhining knew that even if she said one more word, the emperor's anger would burn her and Caisang to ashes. She had seen Yan Feng's temper, and she was very aware of the current affairs, so she pulled up the frightened and trembling Caisang, and thanked her to leave.

Qixiang Palace is a place where the emperor made a mistake and the concubine repaired, and the facilities are extremely simple. After the death of that concubine, it has been empty, and this palace is only a little better than the cold palace to put it bluntly. At that time, Murong Zhining was seriously ill and could not continue to live in the dungeon, so Yan Fengquan gave this idle palace to Murong Zhining to temporarily recuperate. In addition to picking mulberry, he also arranged for a little palace maid to obey Murong Zhining's dispatch.

Back in Qixiang Palace, Cai Sang took a long time to slow down, she held Murong Zhining's face with both hands: "Oh, oh mom! scared me to death, I thought the two of us couldn't come back, Zhining, you are so bold, I admire you so much." Then he pouted again: "It's bad, we can't get out of the palace, and I won't see my Brother Niu again." ”

The autumn night is as cool as water, and a little firefly dances in the air by the pond in the distance. The two girls sat on the stone steps outside the door, talking to each other, and a small palace maid next to them stood with her hands down, her name was Chunxing.

Chunxing was originally the palace maid next to Qi Yunhuan, but once because she was nervous, she sprinkled tea on Yan Feng and was condemned by Qi Yunhuan. was going to cut off her hands, but Yan Feng saw that she was pitiful, forgave her of the crime, and only hit the board a few times. Qi Yunhuan insisted that Chunxing deliberately wanted to attract Yan Feng's attention, and insisted on expelling her from the palace, just as Murong Zhining needed someone around her, Yan Feng sent her to serve Murong Zhining, and by the way, asked her to report the daily details of Murong Zhining and Cai Sang to Yan Feng.

The next day, Yan Feng sent someone to bring Murong Zhining a guqin. Yan Feng learned from Chun Xing's mouth that Murong Zhining often held an old piano score and was fascinated, posing as a piano stroke out of thin air while watching, looking very devoted. Yan Feng also heard that she had been practicing the piano since she was a child, so she asked people to send a piano casually.

Murong Zhining's eyes lit up when she saw the guqin, this guqin is made of fine paulownia wood, and the headstock is inlaid with flowers, birds, insects and fish carved from mother-of-pearl, the body is simple and heavy, revealing a lustrous luster. It is very similar to the legend of the "winding beam" in the four guqins.

The four famous pianos in the legend are the "Horn Bell" of Qi Huangong, the "Winding Beam" of King Chuzhuang, the "Green Qi" of Sima Xiangru and the "Jiaowei" of Cai Yong. The four famous pianos have changed dynasties and changed their owners several times, some of them flowed into the emperor's house, and some of them fell to the general's family and even the people, except for the "winding beam" of King Chuzhuang.

"Winding Liang" is a person named Hua Yuan dedicated to the king of Chuzhuang, the qin is the name "Winding Liang" originated from a story: legend has it that there was a Korean singer named Han E in the Zhou Dynasty, in order to avoid the war, she went to Qi to join her relatives, and used up the entanglement on the road. When she arrived at the place of Yongmen, she really had no choice but to sing and beg for food and entanglement. Her mournful and mournful singing echoed in the air, like geese singing in the sky and warblers crying in the deep valley, which was very infectious. Until three days after her departure, her singing still reverberated between the beams of the house, making it unforgettable. "The aftermath lingers, and the three days are endless", it is precisely because of this allusion. The famous piano "Winding Beam" is also named after this allusion, which shows that the characteristics of this piano are that the aftermath is endless.

King Chuzhuang got the "winding beam", couldn't put it down, played all day long for fun, and wasted state affairs. One of his concubines was named Fan Ji, and she persuaded him bitterly: "Your lord, you are overly indulged in music. In ancient times, Xia Wei was killed because of his love for a man named "Sister Xi", and the king of Shang loved to listen to the sound of the beautiful voice, which led to the destruction of the country. Your Majesty, if you get the "Winding Beam", you will ignore state affairs and not come to the court for seven days, if you continue like this, you will ruin the country!" King Chuzhuang listened to Fan Ji's words and was greatly moved, but he could not get rid of the temptation of "Winding Beam", so he had to endure the pain and order someone to smash the "Winding Beam" into several sections with a hammer. A famous piano has become a masterpiece for the ages!

Murong Zhining repeatedly observed the body of the piano up and down, falling into deep thought.

Murong Zhining's master is a piano master named Qin Yue, and he is a piano idiot. In order to see all kinds of good pianos, he worked as a luthier in the palace, a teacher for the children of high-ranking officials, and also taught piano to girls in brothels. Murong Zhining was the most gifted student he had ever met. In addition to teaching the qin, the master often taught her some knowledge of the guqin. The master once showed her the atlas of the four famous pianos, and those who love the piano take pleasure in seeing all kinds of famous pianos, even if they can't see the real thing, they also have hidden pictures for appreciation. He once explained to Murong Zhining in detail the external characteristics, sound characteristics, and material details of each famous qin recorded in ancient books, and Murong Zhining also developed a strong interest in the guqin under the influence of his master. In addition, the old piano score left to her by the nurse needs to be cracked, and she likes to study the knowledge involving the guqin even more.

Murong Zhining hooked the strings with her fingers, and the sound of the piano was low, and the aftermath lingered for a long time. She was almost certain that this was the legendary "winding beam" that was hammered by the order of King Chuzhuang.

Murong Zhining was pleasantly surprised, she didn't expect to be lucky enough to see this legendary famous qin. She ordered Chunxing to fetch water for her, wash her hands, and burn a stove of sandalwood. She slowly stroked the strings and played a lost guqin ballad that she and her master had sorted out.

Yan Feng listened to the sound of the piano silently, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He didn't expect that there would be someone in the palace who could play this song. And the sound of this piano also shocked him, and he passed by the vicinity of Qixiang Palace and was attracted by the sound of this piano.

Yan Feng was afraid of disturbing the people who played the piano, so he asked the palace maids and eunuchs to wait in place, and he followed the sound of the piano alone and walked in the direction of Qixiang Palace.

Murong Zhi plucked the strings selflessly, and the silhouette of her stroking the piano was covered with a golden halo by the afterglow of the setting sun, which looked so mysterious and beautiful. Yan Feng was stunned outside the door.

Cai Sang put his hands on his cheeks and looked at Murong Zhining with admiration, they didn't notice that the young emperor had stepped into the gate of Qixiang Palace with his hands behind his back.

After Murong Zhining finished playing a song, she was still intoxicated by the charm of ancient songs. At this time, the emperor's majestic voice came from behind him: "Are you playing the lost "Bright Moon Rising Sea Tide"? I didn't expect that in my palace, there are not only people who can play such a good song, but also such a good piano!"

Yan Feng walked over and stroked the body of the piano and looked at it for a long time. Murong Zhining saw the ceremony and said to Yan Feng: "I didn't expect the emperor to also know about this lost song "The Bright Moon Rises on the Sea Tide"!" Yan Feng glanced at her casually, hooked the corners of his lips, and then turned his gaze to Qin: "Are you laughing at my loneliness? This song is based on the Spring River Flower Moon Night in the Tang Dynasty, "The Spring River Tide is even with the sea, and the bright moon on the sea is born together." "And do it. It has been lost so far, and the last guqin score was given by me to a very close pianist, how can you play this piece?" Murong Zhining said respectfully: "The slave's master is called Qin Yue, and this piece was taught by his old man. Yan Feng touched his nose and said proudly: "I didn't expect you to be a student of Mr. Qin, you must know that the score of this piece you played was given to your master by me!"

Murong Zhining sighed in her heart at the subtlety of fate. She asked Yan Feng: "Where did the emperor's piano come from?

Yan Feng's eyes never left the guqin, he shook his head and replied: "I heard Chun Xing say that you love to study qin scores, and you must like guqin, so I asked someone to go to the warehouse to find one and send it to you." I didn't expect that there would be such a good piano in my palace. It's just that I really don't know where this piano came from, and I don't know how long it has been in the warehouse!"

Murong Zhining looked at Yan Feng, who was focusing on the qin, and secretly covered her mouth and smiled: "If I say that this qin is a lost "winding beam", will the emperor believe it?" Yan Fenghu glanced at Murong Zhining suspiciously, his eyes returned to the guqin again, and stroked it carefully: "Impossible, don't think that I don't know anything about the guqin! The real "winding beam" has already been ordered by the king of Chuzhuang to be hammered in public to make a few pieces of broken wood. ”

Murong Zhi Ning Xing's eyes flashed with wisdom, and her expression was a little cunning: "The slave didn't dare to believe it at first, but if you think about it carefully, there is also such a possibility: King Aiqin of Chuzhuang is crazy, and he must be reluctant to destroy the "Winding Beam". He ordered someone to make a piano that was very similar in appearance to "Winding Beam", and smashed it in front of everyone. And the real "winding beam" was handed over to a piano master who was most close to him and taken away from the palace. The pianist solemnly promised the king of Chuzhuang that he would never let "Winding Liang" appear in front of the world. ”

Yan Feng still shook his head in disbelief, and Murong Zhining pointed to an inconspicuous injury at the end of the piano: "This scar is that once when King Chuzhuang played a lofty piece of music, he was too involved and plucked a string, and the broken string bounced off and swept over the tail, forming this small depression. This is also recorded in the ancient book "Famous Piano Appreciation Collection". ”
