Chapter 54: The Heart of a Talented and Beautiful Man (II)
After the steward of the valley came out of the tent, he ordered someone to bring a good harp and personally put it into the inner account.
After coming out again, he said to Zongzheng: "Young Master Yan, the beauties in the tent will kiss a song, a song with four chapters, and after four chapters, please also inscribe the four chapters respectively." β
Zong Zheng nodded respectfully to understand, and then the steward said to the guests:
"Heaven and earth are for example, and all the guests are based on it, if there is a mistake in the name of the four chapters, then according to the rules of the valley, Yan Gongzi still can't get the beauty in the account. β
After the guests listened, most of them were happy to be happy, Ma Yi and Chang Feng couldn't help but worry about Zongzheng, being able to see a lover eventually become a family member, it was also a fortunate thing for the beauty of the gentleman's adulthood, why not do the gentleman, but unfortunately he couldn't help him, the two couldn't help but blame themselves, although the sound of the piano is the strength of the two, however, the person who answered the question could not find someone to help, but he was helpless, so he had to secretly hope that Zongzheng could answer correctly.
The valley lord had been sitting in the attic, and he was still curious about Zongzheng, so he ordered Bi Yan beside him to check the origin of Yannan Palace.
The room was full of silence, and Xianjie began to stroke the qin, and the first chapter began leisurely, and everyone secretly tasted the meaning.
Zong Zheng closed his eyes, but also savored it, following the sound of the piano, Zong Zheng returned to the past encounter with Xianjie, and the sense of surprise that came with it by chance overflowed on his face.
With the turn of the piano sound, Zong Zheng counted the scenes of his life with Xianjie in the past, and a warmth and gratitude in his heart were intertwined, and his face was warm and cold alternately.
Although Ma Yi and Chang Feng are familiar with the rhythm, they only know the author's mood expressed outside the strings, and how can they appreciate the more secret feelings in it?
The sound of the piano is graceful and tactful, Zongzheng's thoughts are flying, his inner emotions are constantly surging, and the sound played by Xianjie is full of his own deep affection, with the thoughts of Zongzheng, with the memory of the good past, and only the authorities can truly understand and appreciate the feelings.
The end of the note gradually closed, Zong Zheng also slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were a little moist, although it was a piano sound, but it seemed to be re-in with Xianjie in the fairy forest for seven years.
At the end of the four chapters, the sound of the piano was settled, and suddenly, there was the sound of the piano falling to the ground, Zong Zheng looked at Xianjie leaning over and picking up the figure of the piano, and he seemed to have an understanding in his heart, and he just solved the doubts in his heart.
Zong Zheng knows Xianjie's martial arts, with her current martial arts, why is she so obediently at the mercy of the Beauty Valley, there must be some threat in it, just Xianjie deliberately dropped the piano, just imagine how could someone who can play such a wonderful sound drop the piano by mistake, this is clearly implying something, which reminds Zong Zheng of the scene when he and Xianjie practiced swords in the fairy forest.
In a sword practice in the fairy forest, he also slipped the sword in his hand by mistake, and Xianjie also deliberately quipped: "A person with such superb swordsmanship would even miss the sword in his hand." On that day, Zong Zheng vaguely remembered that he replied to Xianjie like this, "No matter how good the swordsmanship is, it also needs the state of mind of the person who uses the sword, if you are uneasy, how can you stabilize the sword." β
Zong Zheng carefully speculated on the implied meaning of Xian Jie, thinking of the Qin Yun in the four chapters of Fangcai, it was obvious that only he could taste the secret feelings in the first four chapters, thinking that Xian Jie heard the name of Yan Nangong and couldn't be sure whether the person who answered the other party's question was me, and added another question to test me, and the deliberately falling off the piano was clearly the words of the past sword practice as a hint, could it be that Zong Zheng thought of this and suddenly understood Xianjie's intentions.
These four chapters take the key, nothing more than 'encounter, according to, know, love' four words, associated with the meaning of the piano, the last word should be the homophonic word 'obstruction', these four words are connected, it is clear that I met with Xianjie, see Xianjie so compliant, you should know, unrecognizable obstacles, Xianjie is clearly hinting at herself, she is in a crisis, she can't help herself, with 'Luoqin' hinting at 'falling love', it is clearly to let go of your feelings, can not recognize the meaning of Xianjie.
Xianjie sat in the tent, her eyes were swaying, full of expectations for the answer, if the person outside the tent was a brother, he would definitely be able to know the answer, and with his wisdom, he would also be able to know his hidden meaning.
It's really helpless, Xianjie can't speak out according to the rules of Beauty Valley, and Zongzheng is cautious in his words and deeds because of his pretending identity, so he doesn't dare to say much, even if Zongzheng says so many words, Xianjie will definitely be able to recognize it, but it won't make Xianjie so embarrassed.
Ma Yi and Chang Feng looked at Zong Zheng tightly, and Ma Yi asked Chang Feng, "Brother Feng, do you know what the four chapters say?"
Chang Feng frowned and shook his head, and replied in a low voice: "Although I know the mood of the four chapters, I don't know what the four chapters mean, it's really incomprehensible!"
All the guests didn't know why, and they all looked at Zongzheng.
The breeze swam and the sun became a little brighter.
The middle valley steward looked at Zong Zheng and said, "Young Master Yan, please also tell me the title of the four chapters." β
Zong Zheng looked at the people in front of him, walked in front of the screen, raised the ink pen, and successively proposed to meet, depend, know and love each other eight big characters, when the word love put down the pen, Zong Zheng finally understood Xianjie's thoughts, he finally knew that Xianjie also liked herself, loved herself, and left the ambiguity of the fairy forest but did not want to reveal it on such an occasion, and it was really fate to think about it.
Zong Zheng turned around, put down the pen, and the eight big characters appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Everyone stared at the eight big characters on it, and then looked at the manager of Zhonggu, full of anticipation for the answer.
The manager of Zhonggu took out a piece of white paper from his sleeve, opened it slowly, his face was shocked, and he was about to show it to everyone with the words, although the words were small, it was not difficult to see that it was the eight big characters.
The valley lord has been paying attention to the situation below in the attic, and when Zong Zheng answered the first question correctly, the valley lord aroused his curiosity, and now, Zong Zheng answered two questions correctly in a row, and his heart naturally couldn't hold back.
At this time, Bi Yan returned to her side, the valley lord looked at Bi Yan, and Bi Yan said to the valley lord: "Valley master, Yannan Palace does not have a prominent family background, his father is the owner of the Returning Mountain Villa, and his status in the martial arts is very ordinary. β
The valley lord smiled, "Hehe, in this case, I want to get a good understanding of this person to see if this person can be used by us in the future, and how useful it is." β
As she spoke, she was about to get up, but Bi Yan hurriedly came over to support her.
Under the attic, the scene became noisy for a while, and when the guests saw that Zong Zheng was so powerful, they couldn't help but shift their hopes to the last question in the Beauty Valley.
The middle valley steward read aloud: "The second question, Yan Nangong answered correctly again, according to the rules of the valley, as long as you answer the third question of the valley again, then Yan Gongzi can get the beauty in the account." β
At this time, the valley lord came to the marble platform with the support of Bi Yan, and the seat was quiet again, the valley lord subconsciously glanced at Zong Zheng, a cold and evil breath came to his face, Zong Zheng could vaguely feel that the old woman beside him was extraordinary, and it was definitely not as old as she is now, and her steps were faltering.
The valley lord took a deep breath and said to Zongzheng: "Dare to ask Yan Gongzi, how did you guess the title of these four chapters?"
Zong Zheng deliberately stuck his throat for a moment, and replied in a more vicissitudes of voice: "There are three wrong places that the valley master asked!"
Xianjie heard Zongzheng's voice, although she deliberately covered it up, but she could still distinguish it, it was Brother Zheng's voice, she couldn't be wrong, she was a little happy in her heart, and then thought of what the valley master asked, and couldn't help but be stunned.
When the valley lord heard Zongzheng's reply, he couldn't help but feel surprised, so he looked at Zongzheng curiously, "Oh! I just asked briefly, why are there three things wrong?"
Zong Zheng looked calm, and replied lightly: "First, I am not Yan Gongzi, please call me Yan Jushi, I have rarely appeared in the rivers and lakes, this time I just came with my cousin." As he spoke, he looked at Chang Feng, who naturally understood Zongzheng's intentions, so he nodded in response.
After hearing this, the valley lord solved the first layer of doubts in his heart, that is, the true identity of Yan Nangong, and now there is Chang Feng as evidence, but he also eliminated three points of doubts, but he still has doubts, so he continued to ask respectfully: "What are the remaining two mistakes?"
Zong Zheng continued to reply: "Second, the monk did not guess the title, but this qin song has long existed in the world, and it just happens to be known to me. β
The valley lord couldn't help asking, "If this song has long existed in the world, why haven't we heard of it?" β
Zong Zheng replied with a sneer: "There are many things in the world that are known by a few people, you don't know, and I know, so what's so strange, I can only say that I am lucky!"
"What about the third?" Seeing that Zongzheng was a little rebellious, the valley lord felt a little angry in his heart.
Zong Zheng saw that the valley master was already angry, and knew that the doubts in his heart had disappeared a little, so he replied coldly: "This third! That is, the name of this song is called four chapters, but in fact it is only three and a half chapters, and this last chapter, I am afraid that the beauty in the account has only played half of it, and the remaining half has long been extinct." β
The valley lord seemed to have no belief at first, but now he was said by the person in front of him, looking at his unfettered appearance, but also had the demeanor of a layman, which couldn't help but reduce his doubts again, the valley lord once suspected that he was lonely and unheard, and had never heard of these four chapters, but he remembered the first question again, why everyone didn't know the name of this painting, and he knew that if it was a coincidence, then how could there be so many coincidences in the world, but this son knew something, others didn't know, and it just appeared on this occasion, which couldn't help but make the valley owner doubt the relationship between Zongzheng and Xianjie in the tentγ
"The name of the fairy forest, how did Yan Jushi come up with it, can you tell the old woman?" The valley lord looked at Zong Zheng with a questioning look. As the person in charge of the intelligence agency, if he does not have the slightest ability to observe words and colors and ingenuity, how can he be relied on and trusted by Mongolia, the valley lord has been eyeing the relationship between Zongzheng and Xianjie since Zongzheng answered the first question, and his keen feeling can be described as unusual, and the previous answer to the second question has dispelled a lot of doubts for the valley master, if the answer to the first question is not careful, I am afraid that it will only be wasted.
Zong Zheng immediately thought: "It seems that the valley master's suspicions have not disappeared, if he thinks that the painting has already existed and he happens to know this painting, it will definitely be inappropriate, but how should he respond?"
Xianjie heard the valley master's question, and felt a little uneasy in her heart, only blaming herself for being too eager to find her brother when she came up with the first question.
Zong Zheng just thought for a moment and then laughed: "What's so difficult about this?"
The valley lord said coldly: "Yan Gongzi doesn't want to tell the old woman that this painting is a long-standing painting, it just so happens that the beautiful woman in the tent painted it, and it happens that only you know." β
Zong Zheng heard this, knowing that the valley lord had doubts about the relationship between himself and Xianjie, if he didn't answer skillfully enough this time, and couldn't convince the valley master and the guests, I was afraid that it would be difficult to save Xianjie, Xianjie hinted that she couldn't recognize her, and she also had her concerns and arrangements, how should I respond?
