Shao Bailong said to Qin Wushuang: "Sir, if you don't give up, you can stay here for a few days. Shao will bear all the expenses, how about that?"
Qin Wushuang paid attention to Mr. Zhao and immediately responded: "How about I tell Master Shao if I want to stay? Guan Xiao, you can go back to Iron Gate with Master Shao to settle down first."
Xiao Guan said respectfully: "Okay, Xiao Guan will wait for your husband to come back every day."
Watching Shao Bailong and Xiao Guan leave, Qin Wushuang was about to go upstairs when suddenly a little maid came towards him, wearing light green clothes, with a smile on her lips: "Sir, excuse me."
Qin Wushuang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Girl, what advice do you have?"
This maid was Xiaozhu. She tilted her head and looked at Qin Wushuang from side to side. Her pigtails were swaying. She always had a smiling expression on her face, looking kind and friendly: "How dare I, a little girl, have any advice?
My master is hosting a banquet on the second floor and would like to invite your husband to chat for a few words to pass the time."
Qin Wushuang saw that this maid was talking unusually, so she did not dare to look down upon her, but she said: "The master just held a banquet here, but since your noble master invites you, he is disrespectful. Please lead the way, girl."
Xiaozhu chuckled, thinking that this young master was not pretentious, and immediately waved his hand: "Sir, please come with me."
Arriving on the second floor, the door of a private room by the window was ajar. Xiaozhu walked to the door, smiled and said to Qin Wushuang: "Sir, please come in."
Qin Wushuang pushed the door open and saw a girl wearing goose-yellow clothes, leaning in front of the window, as if she was contemplating something, her expression was focused, her body was as graceful as a god, hazy, as if she had a sense of being out of the world.
.If she weren't in this mess, Qin Wushuang would almost think that this woman came from the sky.
Seeing that Qin Wushuang was slightly stunned, Xiaozhu smiled and said: "Miss, the guests you asked Xiaozhu to invite are here. Why are you so dazed?"
The young lady came back to her senses. Just for a moment, she saw Shao Bailong and Xiao Guan walking out of the window. They were thinking about something. When she came back to her senses, she smiled and said: "Sir, I have taken the liberty of inviting you, sir. Please don't laugh."
."
Qin Wushuang didn't know what was going on, and didn't pretend to be coy. Instead, he said: "Miss, you don't have to be polite, but I never thought that among the people of Jiuwu Imperial City, there is such an elegant person as Miss. I heard a wisp of piano music earlier, and sincerely
There was a faint sound coming from upstairs, which was quite otherworldly. When I first saw the young lady, the faint sound of the piano seemed to fit perfectly with it. But I don’t know if that wisp of piano music was played by the young lady?”
Miss Murong smiled slightly, but before she could answer, Xiaozhu on the side chuckled: "Miss, this gentleman is really extraordinary. He can connect the two just by listening to the music and looking at people."
"Sir, please take a seat." Miss Murong waved her hand and asked Qin Wushuang to take a seat.
Qin Wushuang did not pretend to be pretentious and sat down at the guest seat. The banquet was not as luxurious as Shao Bailong's. It was just a few exquisite dishes and four exquisite snacks.
Xiaozhu obediently poured wine for Qin Wushuang: "Sir, there is no good wine in this Jiuwu Empire. This banquet is simple. Do you think my lady is stingy?"
Qin Wushuang said: "I'm so grateful for the invitation. I've seen your hospitality. How dare I be picky?"
He raised his glass and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Let me propose a toast first to express my gratitude."
But Miss Murong was not arrogant, and she also joined in the toast and had a drink. Miss Murong's every move did not show the cautious and coquettish attitude of ordinary women.
The way she moves her hands and feet, she is elegant and generous. Obviously, she is not comparable to the average lady.
"Sir, I was upstairs earlier. I saw you act righteously on the street and save the life of the drunk man. This kind of chivalrous and chivalrous feeling is something that this little girl has never seen. So I invite you to have a few glasses of wine with me.
Please forgive me for any rudeness."
When Miss Murong spoke, she did not feel shy or coy about inviting Qin Wushuang, but she looked calm and without any pretense.
Qin Wushuang suddenly realized: "I see, earlier on the street I felt someone visiting me upstairs. I thought it must be you, Miss."
"Well, she is a little girl."
Xiaozhu came over again and filled up the wine for the two of them, and said with a smile: "Sir, Miss, you are all too polite. According to me, you should not be so polite. Let's chat casually without being restrained. Isn't that good?
You come and go, you come and go, I feel awkward for you."
Miss Murong had long been accustomed to Xiaozhu's style, and sighed helplessly: "Sir, this girl Xiaozhu has been spoiled by me, so she has no scruples in words and deeds, but her heart is not bad."
Qin Wushuang said: "Miss Xiaozhu is outspoken and quick-hearted. I like to deal with people like this the most."
Xiaozhu laughed and said, "Miss, did you hear that? You always say that I am rough and talk without restraint. But what my husband said is so good."
Miss Murong sighed helplessly and asked: "I see that Mr. Wang is walking in a hurry, and there seems to be a knot between his eyebrows, but there is something urgent to do."
When Qin Wushuang heard her question, he remembered that his master was still waiting for him to return in Xingluo Palace, and his heart felt painful again. He sighed: "My relatives are injured and are in danger, so I am worried. But I didn't expect that the young lady has the ability to recognize people.
"
Miss Murong was a little apologetic: "Sir, this little girl didn't expect to cause sadness to you. However, sir, you are so righteous and upright, and your relatives will definitely be rewarded with good things."
"I hope so. I have no choice but to go all out and go through the mountains and seas of fire to try my best. I have the guts to ask, but I don't know where the lady comes from? But is this Jiuwu Empire's family name?"
Miss Murong stayed for a moment and sighed softly: "Sir, since the little lady is hosting a banquet for you, I should tell you the truth. But there are some twists and turns, and it is a long story. My surname is Murong. If you are destined to meet me, sir, you will definitely know me.
The origin of this. Today, it is inconvenient for me, my little lady, to tell you. Please forgive me, sir."
Seeing her politeness, Qin Wushuang knew that what she said must have some unspeakable secrets. He did not ask further questions at the moment. He just said: "As the saying goes, why should we have known each other before we meet? It's because of my appearance. Miss Murong, please forgive me. My surname is Qin."
"Qin?"
Miss Murong was stunned for a moment, obviously thinking of something. Then she thought it was impossible, and asked: "Sir, are you from the human kingdom?"
"Um."
Miss Murong nodded and stopped asking.
Xiaozhu could obviously see that the atmosphere was a bit awkward again. He immediately said as if to adjust the atmosphere: "Sir, it's not that my lady is stingy and refuses to tell her origin, it's because once my lady's origin is exposed, the implications will be too wide. Sir, you are upright.
People should understand."
Qin Wushuang smiled and said: "Miss Xiaozhu, I understand deeply. Your lady's situation is exactly the same as mine at this moment."
"Sir, do you have something to hide?" Miss Murong asked with a smile.
Qin Wushuang naturally has something to hide. His identity and origin are highly confidential. No matter who he is, it is impossible to expose him.
Although he also felt that this young lady was as otherworldly as a person outside the world, so she meant no harm, but he always had to be wary when meeting her for the first time.
Qin Wushuang nodded: "The depression in my heart at this moment is beyond my imagination. Whenever I think of my loved ones suffering, there is a feeling of depression in my chest that cannot be relieved."
Xiaozhu laughed: "It's easy to handle. Sir, my lady's piano music can best relieve sorrow and ease your mind. You have to ask my lady to play another song to ensure that you are in a much better mood."
Qin Wushuang was also very fascinated by Miss Murong's piano music. The earlier piece was ethereal, like the sound of nature. It stopped for a short time, but the meaning was still unfinished.
"If I could listen to the lady's elegant music in person, my life would be worthwhile."
Miss Murong smiled and said: "The husband will praise the little girl. In this case, the little girl will play the song "Come from the World" for the husband to dispel the many worries in the world."
After hearing this, Xiaozhu went upstairs happily to get the piano.
After Ms. Murong tuned the strings several times, she started to play. Her fingers, like peeled onions, jumped on the strings, and the music came from itself, as if it suddenly came from the sky.
The sound of the piano is like a silent night or the vast starry sky, with a peaceful beauty.
Qin Wushuang listened intoxicated, but his thoughts were calm. All the worries and pains between the two lives seemed to have suddenly faded away a lot. Only the quiet and peaceful sound of the piano echoed in his mind for a long time.
With.
At this moment, the door of the elegant room was suddenly pushed open, and a gust of wind blew in.
A figure flashed into the private room and shouted: "Whose girl is playing the piano here? Why don't you invite me to listen to a piece of music?"
This man is unclear, but he is not Mr. Zhao. Who is that?
It turned out that this guy was drinking in the private room next door, waiting for his birthday. He was bored, and there was no one he knew well in this place. He was very bored. When he heard the faint sound of the piano, he walked over casually and pushed the door open.
Seeing Qin Wushuang's face, Master Zhao was obviously a little impressed. He glanced at it a few times, but didn't care. Instead, he stared at Miss Murong and looked her up and down with a very rude and arrogant expression.
Qin Wushuang frowned slightly, this guy was really a disgrace to the scenery. Interrupting such a natural sound of the harp made him lose his ear before the song was finished. He originally wanted to make a move, but considering his status as a guest, he didn't for the moment.
attack, but wait to see what the owner's attitude is.
Miss Murong's face turned slightly cold and she said calmly: "Who are you to be so rude?"
When Mr. Zhao saw that there was only one young man and two young girls here, he became more courageous. He said with a playful smile: "First time, second time familiar, who am I? Let's have a few drinks, and the girl will
knew."
Xiaozhu shouted angrily: "You scumbag, get out quickly!"
Miss Murong looked calm: "Xiaozhu, step back. You want to drink my wine, but it depends on whether you are qualified."
Mr. Zhao chuckled and said: "To have a drink, do you still need qualifications? What qualifications? This guy is sitting here carefree. It must be the first time we have met. Does he have the qualifications?"
Qin Wushuang didn't try to tease him, but he started to make things difficult for Qin Wushuang.
Miss Murong said: "This gentleman is my guest. I invited him personally. But you came uninvited. You are so bold and rude, but you don't know which country and which family you are a descendant of?"
Mr. Zhao laughed loudly: "So the qualification is to ask about one's origins. I won't tell you. I will, for fear of scaring some of you."
