The fingers with clear joints plucked the seven strings, and a clear and smooth sound came out, like flowing water, as if traveling through time and space, coming from the ancient Han and Tang Dynasties.
The breeze blew by, and the faint sandalwood on the table rose in curls. Xue Hong's clothes fluttered in the breeze. The sound of the piano was exciting, and it was in harmony with the rustling wind blowing the leaves.
Baochai sat opposite Xue Hong, focusing entirely on the person in front of her.
The sound of the piano and the sound of the wind harmonize with the sounds of the leaves, and the hazy emotions of the boy and the girl are also rapidly generated.
Halfway through the sound of the piano, Xue Hong suddenly pressed the strings and said apologetically to Baochai: "Sorry, I don't know why, but my heart can't calm down today. After all, it is difficult to continue this song."
Ever since Xue Hong had different feelings for Baochai, she became more and more afraid to look directly at Baochai.
Baochai was born with icy muscles and jade bones, a lustrous body, red lips and white teeth, eyes like apricots, and her unique girlish aura that stirred Xue Hong's heartstrings.
Baochai stepped forward and said, "My sister has also learned a piece of music during this period. I hope my brother will appreciate it."
Xue Hong readily agreed and gave up his seat.
Baochai pressed his hands on the strings of the harp and moved his bare hands lightly. The sound of the harp was clanging, and Xiaocha was ancient and simple.
Xue Hong was very happy to hear it at first, but after listening to a few words, he became stunned.
This piece of music is completely about a woman expressing her true feelings to her sweetheart.
Xue Hong's mind went blank, and even a little bit of his true energy leaked out, with Xue Hong as the center, creating a gust of breeze.
The reason why the guqin is the first in chess, calligraphy and painting is not only because of its ancient history and elegant tone, but also because the guqin can express the player's mood very well.
In ancient times, friends played a song to express their feelings.
Play a song to express love between husband and wife.
Even if there is something difficult to say between the monarch and his ministers, they will play a song on the guqin.
The most famous one is Feng Qiuhuang by Sima Xiangru in the Han Dynasty.
Baochai devoted herself wholeheartedly to it and expressed her emotions perfectly.
From the admiration and kindness towards Xue Hong when he was a child, to the confusion and worry when Xue Hong was forced to leave the house after the Xue family suddenly declined.
Then came Xue Hong's efforts to turn the tide, save the Xue family, teach Xue Pan, and other events, regardless of past grievances. From this moment on, the sound of the piano began to show the friendship.
Later, Xue Hong passed the Yuan Dynasty in high school, became friends with princes and princes, and still protected the Xue family. From then on, Baochai's heart was tied to Xue Hong.
After the draft, entering the capital, breaking the army, and becoming a marquis, up to this point, the love in Baochai's music could no longer be concealed.
Originally, Baochai planned to take his time, but as Xue Hong became better and better and made more and more contributions, more and more people in the capital were definitely staring at Xue Hong.
Maybe Xue Hong’s boss, Emperor Long Qing, also had the intention to completely turn Xue Hong into one of his own. Or maybe Emperor Long Qing didn’t have a daughter of the right age, so he might have already issued the decree!
As for the fact that the prince-in-law is not allowed to participate in politics, the rule of this thing is that the dead are alive. Which of the great emperors in ancient and modern times took the rules seriously? If you can do practical things and are capable, even if you are a slave, I will still use you.
Take Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, for example. If someone really showed the same great internal affairs abilities as Zhuge Liang and the same loyalty as Prime Minister Zhuge, he would be willing to give in to Taizong of the Tang Dynasty!
Rules set by the ancestors? As long as my contribution is great enough! I am the ancestor, and what I say is the rule!
Therefore, Baochai directly chose to have a showdown with Xue Hong.
The emotions in Xue Hong's mind at this time were complicated. Some were surprised, some were overwhelmed, and even a little bit happy. What was going on? It must be a matter of the transformation of Taoist heart! That's right.
Baochai finished her song and opened her teeth lightly: "Brother Hong, do you understand the meaning of my song?"
Xue Hong's expression was complicated: "Baochai, I'm a little overwhelmed for a moment..."
Baochai: "There are trees in the mountains, and the trees have branches. I am happy for you, but you don't know it."
Xue Hong was just about to say that I am your brother, but suddenly he remembered that now the two of them have nothing to do with each other whether they are related by blood or by law.
Xue Hong couldn't answer for a while, and was afraid that Baochai would misunderstand if he didn't say anything, so he said, "Baochai, can you give me half a day?"
Baochai smiled softly and nodded in agreement.
Xue Hong returned to the room in a daze. First he lighted the incense for Sanqing, then sat cross-legged on the bed and began to sort out his emotions and thoughts.
"Baochai and I are brothers and sisters?"
"No more now, and there is no blood relationship."
"Don't I like Baochai?"
"My sister is soft, waxy and cute, who doesn't like her!"
"If I reject Baochai..."
"Hey? Why should I reject Baochai? Isn't it good to know each other's roots?"
"Then what am I hesitating about?"
"Is it because you can't get over the psychological hurdle of calling each other brother and sister for more than ten years?"
"But why is my heart beating so fast? Am I an animal?"
"No, no! What if Baochai marries someone else and gets bullied?"
"What if her parents-in-law make things difficult for her in the future?"
"Am I a beast?"
"I'm a beast."
"I'm just a beast!"
"Beasts are just beasts. Baochai is not afraid of a woman, but I am afraid of a hammer!"
Xue Hong suddenly got up from the bed and walked outside, looking for Baochai.
Baochai was sitting in the room feeling uneasy. She didn't know how Xue Hong felt about her, and she wasn't sure at all.
Xiang Ling comforted her: "Don't worry, miss, you are so good, the Marquis must also like you."
While they were talking, Xue Hong hurried over, but thought it was not good to break in privately, so he sent a message to Baochai: "Is Baochai here? I'm outside the door now."
Hearing this, Baochai stood up from the embroidered pier, opened the door, and saw Xue Hong at the door as expected: "Brother Hong."
Xue Hong blushed: "Baochai, I do that too..."
Baochai understood Xue Hong's thoughts in an instant: "I only hope that your heart will be like mine."
Xue Hong: "It will definitely live up to my love."
…
It was the beginning of a happy event in the Xue family, but a certain prince who had just sobered up was not doing so well.
Zhu Hui covered his head, sat up from the bed, and grinned: "Oh~ I forgot that Junchen is not around anymore. Next time I must get some hangover and sobering medicine from him."
"Come on! How long have I been asleep?"
Maid: "Replying to the prince, you have slept all day and night."
After Zhu Hui ordered someone to dress him better, a picture suddenly flashed in his mind. It seemed that he had said that he would pay for the palace repairs for his mother... I can't remember clearly, but that must have been the case.
Zhu Hui led the people straight to the palace's warehouse, preparing to collect the money and send it to the palace for his mother to repair the palace.
But as soon as the door of the warehouse opened, Zhu Hui was dumbfounded, followed by extreme anger: "Where is Shuntian Prefecture Yin!! I want to skin him! How can we maintain security! This thief has stolen everything
This king is at home! Ah!!!!”
The warehouse, which was originally filled with white silver, now only has hundreds of thousands of taels of silver left, and about 10,000 to 20,000 taels of gold.
Zhu Hui casually picked up a stick and led the people to find trouble with Shuntian Prefecture Yin.
The housekeeper immediately stopped him: "Your Majesty, we don't have any thieves in our house."
Zhu Hui: "You fart!"
"Where did my money go without recruiting thieves? Maybe I drank too much and gave it to my father!"
The butler nodded silently.
Zhu Hui: "...Are you kidding me?"
If the money is stolen by a thief, there is a high probability that it can be recovered. But if it is really taken away by your father, it will be a disaster.
Starting from the eldest brother Zhu Hui, to Zhu Hui, who didn’t have the New Year’s money taken care of by Emperor Longqing when he was a child? He could only get in but not get out!
Facing Zhu Hui's question, the housekeeper shook his head, indicating that he was not joking with the prince.
…
ah!!!!!!
A shrill scream resounded through the sky and spread throughout most of the street.
