"Didn't you say you have to listen to the rain and fall asleep? You can't fall asleep?"
Qin Hua shook the letter paper, bit the fruit and said vaguely: "Dad's letter, please wake up."
Lin Manyue arranged the embroidery thread and asked jokingly: "What did uncle write? He won't scold you again, will he?"
After Qin Hua came to the capital of the gods, General Qin wrote and sent letters in about three months. So far, there are only about ten letters, but every one of them cursed Qin Hua.
General Qin loved his daughter and protected her like a sweetheart, but he also scolded Qin Hua a lot.
Ever since Qin Hua started practicing martial arts, she has been scolded no less than her two brothers.
At first, some people advised General Qin not to be so harsh on the little girl, but later they found out that the father and daughter got along very well, so they stopped interrupting.
Qin Hua read the letter word by word, looking at the familiar fonts and familiar words, she slightly curled her lips: "I cursed."
General Qin is not a sentimental person. He never writes his thoughts on paper, let alone expresses them verbally.
Seeing her father as a tall man, he looked like a rough man. He also loved saving face, was stubborn, and would never give in.
Only she knew how good her father was. He was tough and gentle, rough and fine, and gave her the best fatherly love, so that she would not be sad at all because of her mother's absence.
This letter contains all the interesting things that happened in Heilong Pass recently. It is rambled here and there, and it looks like it is just trying to make up the number of words.
Later, he ran out of words and scolded her as usual.
There is not a single word written about longing, but every word is missing.
General Qin never said that he missed her, for fear that she would miss her, and he never told her what to do, and he couldn't tell her. Thousands of tender feelings gathered in his heart, and finally turned into this ordinary-looking letter.
Qin Hua looked at it again and again, and the smile on her face never stopped.
He turned his head slightly, hiding the moisture from the corner of his eyes, stood up and took out a Qiang flute made of eagle bones from the grid. It was less than the length of a hand, short and delicate, and decorated with a bunch of beautiful colored stones.
When Lin Manyue saw the Qiang flute, she knew that Qin Hua was homesick, and so did she.
Gently wipe the Qiang flute, close your eyes, and play slowly.
The Qiang flute is Qin Hua's favorite instrument. It is small, easy to carry, and can be played at any time. Many people in the army know it. After watching it for a long time, they want to learn it, and everyone is willing to teach her.
Qin Hua didn't play the music specially, she just played it casually but it still sounded beautiful.
Although the Qiang flute is small, its sound is very penetrating and can be heard far and wide in the vast grassland.
Everyone at the Prince's Palace heard it.
Qu Lang and Shang Qingshu were discussing something, and they were both surprised when they heard the sound.
Qu Lang: "Is this sound the Qiang flute? I've heard it several times before, but it never sounded as pleasant as this."
The Qiang flute is made of different materials, and the sounds it produces are also different. This is a frontier instrument, and very few people in Shendu are good at it, so there are naturally not many opportunities to hear it.
Shang Qingshu nodded: "It sounds like a piece of thinking music."
The music is melodious, the meaning is far-reaching, and the sound of longing is continuous.
The direction the sound came from was in the west courtyard. It means the princess is homesick.
Qu Lang was not stupid enough to ask who it was. Who knew that the Crown Princess grew up in the border area? Besides the Crown Princess, who would dare to play the flute when the Crown Prince was seriously ill? Is this not asking for death?
Last night I heard from my wife that the Crown Princess was a nice person, and today I heard such a delicate and sensational song from the Crown Princess, which made Qu Lang even more curious about the Crown Princess.
But that's all, he shouldn't think too deeply about it, he sticks to his sense of proportion.
——
Hearing that the prince had woken up, Qinhua prepared to go over and take a look at ten o'clock in the evening.
Halfway through, I saw a purple figure dancing in front of me.
Qin Hua almost forgot that there was such a Wen Liangyuan.
He came forward to hold Qin Hua's hand: "Are you also going to see His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Qin Hua avoided: "Yes."
Qin Hua's coldness made Wen Shixi's smile freeze, and then he explained: "I originally wanted to wait on the Crown Princess, but I felt unwell not long ago. I will be fine in the past two days. The Crown Princess must not be angry with Shi Xi."
"No, please pay more attention to your health." She had nothing to be angry about.
Wen Shixi smiled, explained it, and stopped mentioning it. Instead, he said: "His Highness seems to have been sick since he returned. I am very worried about his health. Unfortunately..."
She laughed at herself: "I am not so blessed."
Qin Hua felt funny in her heart, this was really interesting.
Is it simply worrying about the prince's health, or is it an allusion to not being able to 'serve' the prince?
It was true that the prince was sick when he returned, but Qin Hua didn't think it was because the prince was weak, but more like he was getting hurt because he kept getting into trouble.
The two times she met the prince at night, he always went out to kill people. On days when she didn't meet him, who knows how many more he killed.
Those who kill will always be killed.
The prince wants other people's lives, and they cannot wait to die. It is normal for the prince to be injured when he resists.
Others lost their lives, but the prince was only injured and gained.
Qin Hua had only been on the battlefield for a short time, but fighting to the death and being injured were commonplace and nothing to make a fuss about.
She didn't care if she was injured, so how could she feel sorry for the prince's injury?
The two of them came to the prince's dormitory together. Shang Qingshu looked at Wen Shixi unexpectedly and did not stop him, but let them go in together.
The prince had already woken up and was sitting on the couch reading the memorial.
With a white fox fur cloak draped over his body, he sat casually, looking casual and leisurely. His whole person was no less noble, but a little less sharp.
"I send my regards to Your Highness."
Qin Hua glanced at Wen Shixi who was leaning over to say hello, but without saying anything, she walked aside and sat down.
The little eunuch served Qin Hua tea with a wink, which made Qin Hua look at him more.
When the prince saw this scene, he closed the memorial, glanced at Qin Hua, and raised his hand to Wen Shixi.
Wen Shixi stood up, walked to one side with elegant steps, and looked at the prince with concern: "Is your highness feeling better?"
The prince did not answer, but asked: "What's wrong with you?"
Wen Shixi's expression paused, and then she said sincerely: "I am worried about Your Highness, so I came with the Crown Princess to have a look. If Your Highness does not dislike it, I am willing to stay and serve."
The prince twirled his fingers, with an unclear look in his eyes, and twitched the corners of his lips: "Okay."
Then he waved his hand: "Step back first."
Wen Shixi didn't expect that the prince actually agreed. She raised her head in surprise and didn't react for a while. It wasn't until the prince's cold eyes fell on her that she woke up as if from a dream.
"I... I'm leaving first..."
Wen Shixi hurriedly walked out and faced a room full of unfamiliar faces. Wen Shixi's excitement suddenly cooled down.
The prince thought she didn't exist before, but today he agreed to keep her. She got what she wanted, but she felt flustered for no reason.
Wen Shixi's face turned pale when she thought of the rumors she had heard before and what happened to Mei Liangyuan.
The prince is not a beloved man, and it is really dangerous to get close to him, but she has entered the prince's house and has no choice. Moreover... she really wants to serve the prince.
She first fell in love with Akagi when she was young, and sincerely loves Akagi. She will not harm His Highness the Crown Prince, but only wants to serve the Crown Prince.
She believed that His Highness the Crown Prince would see her sincerity.
