3 Chapter 3

Cao Yue didn't know what happened in Cao's mansion, for her, the most important thing in front of her was this man, and as for the rest of the things, it was not worth mentioning.

Kangxi is the emperor in the end, Su Ri is used to being happy and angry, even if he is amazed by Cao Yue's appearance, except for the surprise at the beginning, his emotions have not leaked at all.

He lightly hooked his lips: "The girl doesn't have to be polite, speaking of which, she is also disturbing the girl first, and the girl's maidservant is just the protector of the lord." ”

Cao Yue didn't miss the amazement in Kangxi's eyes, her tense mood eased slightly, and she bowed her head gently: "Son's generosity." ”

A woman who rushes in will only make people feel cheap, even if he is her target, except for the courtesy she should have, she will not be too eager, so as not to make people look down on her.

Feeling Cao Yue's alienated and indifferent attitude, Kangxi didn't care, he caught a glimpse of Jiaowei on the table, and his eyes were slightly dark: "I also know a lot about music and rhythm all the way, looking at the piano used by the girl, like a famous piano Jiaowei?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Liang Jiugong's eyes unconsciously looked at the qin.

If he remembers correctly, this piano was awarded by the emperor to Lord Cao Yin Cao when Kangxi was in the eighteenth year.

can remember it so clearly, thanks to the fact that this piano was personally begged by the emperor after Cao Yin, who was still a royal guard at the time, said that his young sister was good at music.

Now that Jiaowei is in the hands of this girl, it is not difficult to guess the identity of this girl.

For a while, Liang Jiugong's eyes drooped slightly, his eyes kept rolling, and he kept thinking carefully in his heart.

When Cao Yue heard this, there was a little surprise between his eyebrows: "Childe actually knows Jiaowei?" ”

seems to be because Kangxi also understands music and rhythm, Cao Yue lost the detached politeness at the beginning, and there was a hint of pleasure in his tone.

Kangxi noticed this subtle change, and he half-jokingly said: "It is an honor to have the honor to know such a peerless famous piano, and it is even more rare to hear the music played with it." ”

Saying that, Kangxi sighed regretfully: "It's just a pity that I can't try the timbre of this piano myself." ”

Fei Yanggu and Liang Jiugong listened to Kangxi's nonsense, and their eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

Before Jiao Wei rewarded Cao Yin, he didn't know who was playing music on the piano in the attic whenever he had spare time, but in the past few years, the government has been busy, and the emperor has lost such leisure.

"This ......" Cao Yue turned his head to look at the piano, then at Kangxi, and couldn't bear to say: "If the son doesn't dislike it, it's better to use this piano to play a song." ”

Kangxi was a little moved, his eyes lingered on Jiaowei, and he hesitated: "I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

An Ning snorted lightly: "Our girl is a baby with a scorched tail, and she refuses to be easily touched on weekdays, but now she loosens her mouth and asks your son to stroke the qin, you should feel lucky." ”

Cao Yue's face was slightly red, and she quietly pulled down An Ning's sleeve with her backhand, and said in a low voice: "If you talk more, you are not allowed to eat any of today's pastries." ”

The pastries she said were made by herself, and they tasted better than all the dim sum shops in Jiangning City.

An Ning refused to miss such a blessing, so she had to pout.

An Ning's disrespectful attitude dispelled a trace of doubt in Liang Jiugong's heart, if this Miss Cao family knew the identity of the emperor, then this maid should not be so unruly.

Cao Yue took two steps to the side, until the whole picture of the piano was revealed, and then made a gesture of please: "In ancient times, Yu Boya met a bosom friend in the mountains and flowing waters, and now I and my son will meet friends with the piano, it will not be inconvenient, Childe, please." ”

"Thank you, girl."

Kangxi Jing stepped into the pavilion and sat on the low stool where Cao Yue had sit, his bony fingers caressing the strings and plucking the strings vigorously.

Looking at Kangxi's familiarity with this qin, Cao Yue's eyes were calm, and sure enough, the man's words couldn't be believed.

Whether it is Liu Bang or the person in front of him.

The strength of Kangxi's fingertips is much greater than that of Cao Yue, so the music he plays is more powerful.

At first, Cao Yue didn't hear anything famous, until later, Cao Yue's eyes slowly widened, and his eyes were full of surprise.

Just to not disturb Kangxi Fuqin, he was so surprised that he was covered by his own hand.

Yu Guang noticed that Kangxi's lips, who were paying attention to Cao Yue's expression, hooked up a light smile, put the end to the song, and then stopped and asked, "Do you think the song you are playing is familiar?" ”

Cao Yue put her hand down, nodded hesitantly, the broken hair in her ears floated to the corners of her lips, and she uncomfortably reached out to pin the broken hair, "This song is a bit like my tune." ”

Kangxi got up and nodded slightly in affirmation: "It's a pity that I only heard the second half clearly, but I missed the first half." ”

The implication is that if he hears the whole piece, he can play the whole piece.

An Ning listened, and immediately wanted to complain about Kangxi and say big things, her own girls couldn't play the song completely after listening to it once, and others couldn't do it.

It's just that as soon as she raised her head, the scene of the fragrant pastry leaving her came to mind, and she suddenly lowered her head again like a deflated ball.

Kangxi took two steps forward intentionally or unintentionally, Cao Yue only felt that the distance between the two was a little closer, and she could even feel the smell of ambergris on Kangxi's body.

After a pause, Cao Yue lowered his head and blushed, took a step back, bypassed Kangxi and picked up Jiaowei, and said in a panic: "Gongziqin has been played, please leave early, forgive me for the inconvenience." ”

In the blink of an eye, Cao Yue went down the steps and hurriedly walked a few meters away, quite a bit of a deserted escape.

An Ning hurriedly chased after him: "Girl, slow down, watch the road carefully." ”

Seeing that Cao Yue's master and servant figures were getting smaller and smaller, Kangxi laughed out loud: "Hehehe." ”

Such a beautiful woman is rare to see.

Feiyangu had been a background person for half an hour, and finally couldn't hold back his voice at this moment: "Your Majesty, don't you think the timing of this girl's appearance is too coincidental?" ”

Liang Jiu recognized Cao Yue's identity, Fei Yanggu naturally could, and he could see it even more, just for a while, the emperor became interested in the young lady of the Cao family.

Therefore, Fei Yanggu, a martial artist who put everything on his face, spoke without concealing it, and almost pointed at Cao Yue's nose and said that the Cao family had ulterior motives.

Kangxi rested his right hand in front of him, rubbed his index finger with his thumb, and glanced at Feiyangu: "Only a few people know about my trip, are you telling me that it is because of your incompetence that you have leaked my whereabouts?" ”

The meaning of asking for the guilt was obvious, and Fei Yanggu clenched his fists and knelt on the ground: "It's the slave who is open-mouthed and said the wrong thing, and asks the emperor to forgive him." ”

Feiyangu complained in his heart that he was acting recklessly.

Kangxi looked at Fei Yanggu condescendingly: "I came out to relax today, and I don't think much about the things on the side, especially your careful thoughts." But since you said so, it doesn't hurt to look it up. ”

He is confident that no one knows his whereabouts today, but as an emperor, he is always suspicious.

Besides, he arrived outside Jiangning City in advance and didn't notify the Cao family, didn't he just want to make a secret visit?

Fei Yanggu was born in the Dong E clan, and he had a holiday with Cao Yin, who was the imperial guard, and this matter was left to him, so he didn't have to worry about false information.

Cao Yue held the piano and never looked back, until he hurriedly entered the Zhuangzi, and the hurried appearance was not removed.

handed the piano to the maid and put it away, took the hand stove that the maid had prepared long ago on the Zhuangzi and covered it, the coldness of the fingertips faded a little, and Cao Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking up at the faint warmth of the sun, Cao Yue closed his eyes: "An Ning, I can't turn back again." ”

Even though the faint aggression and interest in Kangxi's eyes were well hidden, she still noticed it, and since then, her honor and disgrace have been tied to him.

Only this time, she will never believe the emperor's words again.

An Ning's lips were slightly pale, she didn't say anything comforting, she reached out and covered the back of Cao Yue's hand, with a firm attitude: "The slave will always be with you." ”

Cao Yue pulled her lips, and was about to say something, when the sound of horses' hooves and wheels pressing the ground outside Zhuangzi came from far and near.

The master and servant glanced at each other, and without Cao Yue opening his mouth, An Ning said, "The slave and maid go out and take a look." ”

Cao Yue paused and walked in front of An Ning: "I'm with you." ”

She wanted to see who would come up to Zhuangzi at this juncture.

An Ning held Cao Yue's arm, stepped out of the threshold unhurriedly, just in time to see the carriage stop at the door, and when the coachman saw Cao Yue, he hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "The slave has seen Miss." ”

The coachman is just the lowest-level servant of the Cao family, and he is not qualified to see the master on weekdays, but now he suddenly saw the most favored young lady of the Cao family, and he was extremely excited.

Cao Yue only glanced at the coachman and didn't speak, and An Ning said, "Who is in the carriage?" ”

The shabby carriage only used cyan cotton cloth to make the curtains, and the wood was also average, and it was not soundproof, and the coachman's voice of An An was transmitted into the carriage, and when he heard An Ning's words, Wang did not wait for the coachman to reply, so he took Taoyu's hand out of the carriage and stood on the wheel with a smile: "It's me, cousin." ”

Although Cao Yue and Wang are called cousins, the identities of Wang and Cao Yue are not equal, and Cao Yue does not take Wang very seriously.

Besides, what is the purpose of Cao Yin's raising the Wang family in the Cao family, Cao Yue is clear, and he didn't ask, but he also thought that the existence of the Wang family could hide people's eyes.

I just don't know how the Wang family, who was supposed to be waiting in Caofu to take over tomorrow, came to Zhuangzi at this time.

Cao Yue blinked slightly, and her attitude was not far away: "Cousin, this is ......"

She was halfway through her words, but her eyes fell on the burden between Taoyu's arms, which made Wang's cheeks hot.

Even if the Wang family wanted to return to the Cao Mansion through Cao Yue's hand, they would not announce that they were driven out of the Cao Mansion in such a place right now.

Stepping on the footstool that the coachman put under the carriage and got out of the carriage, Wang threw away Taoyu's hand to hold her, and went up to hold Cao Yue's arm affectionately: "It's windy outside the door, cousin, your body has always been cold, let's go in first and talk again." ”

Cao Yue glanced at Wang meaningfully, and did not refuse, turned around and entered Zhuangzi according to Wang's movements, and quietly brushed away Wang: "Don't worry, I'll let my cousin take my cousin to the room first, and it's not too late for my cousin to come to me to talk after she is resting." ”

Wang was reluctant, but the hunger in his stomach was extremely clear, so he had to follow the leading minion to the room.

Back in the main courtyard, Cao Yue took a sip of hot tea to warm up, and listened to An Ning talk about the news she asked from the coachman: "The slave asked the coachman, and the coachman said that he was ordered by the eldest lady to send Miss Biao home, but Miss Biao told him that she was coming to Zhuangzi to visit you. ”

"Originally, the coachman didn't agree, but Miss Biao rewarded the coachman with ten taels of silver, and the coachman changed his mind."

An Ning's words fell into his ears, and Cao Yue frowned unconsciously.

The Li family thought that the Wang family could take advantage of the Cao family's shareholder to fly to the branches, and he would not send the Wang family home for no reason, and the only person who could be the master was the eldest brother except for his father and mother.

Cao Yue rubbed her temples with her fingers, and her soft smile was a little ironic.

The eldest brother really has confidence in her.
