The ugly concubine is all over the city, the prince is blind

Chapter 89 I Will Not Promise This Marriage

"Wipe it!"

A familiar voice came from his ear, Shen Jinyan turned his head, and saw Qiao Jinling, who had played the whole piece at some point, handing a white brocade handkerchief in front of him.

The delicate and beautiful peony flower on the Jinpa was very familiar. She remembered that this Jinpa was the one that Qiao Jinling handed her to wipe the blood on her hands when she was assassinated in the forest outside the city last time.

When she was absent-minded, she felt something brushing across her face. When she realized that it was Qiao Jinling who was wiping the tears on her cheeks, she leaned back slightly and backed away by two points.

Seeing that Qiao Jinling's hand was frozen in mid-air without taking it back for a long time, Shen Jinyan glanced at him and saw that his gaze was always on his face. After thinking about it, he leaned forward slightly, and brought his face closer together past.

With the shaking of the stiff hand in mid-air, the soft and slippery handkerchief brushed across her face, making her face itchy, and she was not used to it, she directly raised her hand and slapped the hand in front of her.

The warm temperature spread from the palm of his hand little by little, seeping into the skin, Shen Jinyan was slightly stunned.

Seeing her tightly grasping her hand and refusing to let go, Qiao Jinling frowned slightly, and asked out of concern, "Jinyan, your face looks ugly, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

Shen Jinyan quickly withdrew his hand in shock, and said incoherently, "No, it's okay, I just want to say, I just wipe it myself, you can wipe it for me, I'm sorry, the most important thing is that I'm a grown man, He even cried out because of listening to a piece of music, if this word gets out, outsiders will probably be able to laugh out loud."

"Since that's the case, you can wipe it yourself!"

Qiao Jinling finished speaking with a smile, and handed the brocade handkerchief in front of Shen Jinyan, "Actually, you are not the first person to cry when listening to this song. I also cried when I listened to this song, so, you That way, there’s no shame.”

Taking the handkerchief, he wiped it on his face indiscriminately, Shen Jinyan asked in disbelief, "You didn't lie to me?"

"Of course not!" Qiao Jinling said gently, got up and walked to the edge of the gazebo, and looked into the distance, those eyes that were extremely agile were empty and devoid of emotion, full of loss and despair.

Seeing that there was a sense of desolation leaking out of him, Shen Jinyan wanted to ask something, but when she opened her mouth, no sound came out. In the end, she simply didn't ask any more questions, in order to break the silent atmosphere, just quietly Sitting on the stone bench, he waited quietly for Qiao Jinling to speak.

"This butterfly dance was written by Mei Yuer, the concubine of the former dynasty. She wrote this song just to commemorate the true portrayal of her and the man she likes from acquaintance, acquaintance, love, and death. Therefore, this song It is divided into four parts. After many years of circulation, the Die Wu that is circulated in the six cities of the four countries is actually incomplete, and what is missing is the part of death. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, Die Wu is a song that praises love. Yes, but the real insider understands that this song is just a poor man who wants to express his lovesickness."

At this point, Qiao Jinling didn't want to say any more, but she was afraid that Shen Jinyan's overthinking would cause a misunderstanding, so she paused and continued: "I was traveling a few years ago, and I was fortunate to hear an old man play this piece , At that time, I was also moved like you, and shed tears unconsciously, and later, I learned this song."

"It sounds like this song is completely expressing a very sad story, no wonder I cry!"

"I think not only you will cry, but anyone who listens to this complete song will probably cry!"

"I think so too." Shen Jinyan said with a smile: "If I can learn this song, I don't need to be afraid even if I am really provoked by some blind person at the banquet."

"I would like to say with respect to your qualifications, today's time is enough for you to learn how to play this piece of music."

"You think too highly of me! How can I be so smart!"

While speaking, Shen Jinyan moved the Qingxi Qin directly in front of him, plucked the strings twice, and began to play.

For the two parts of acquaintance and acquaintance, Shen Jinyan played it almost casually, and it played very well. It can be said that there is no deviation from what Qiao Jinling played just now. However, when it came to the love part, she played it however she wanted, tried countless times, and it came out. The sound of the piano is too blunt and boring, as if it lacks a little emotion in it.

Shen Jinyan took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and played again.

However, just after playing a few temperaments, she felt that she couldn't do it, so she had to stop again and start playing again.

I don't know if it was because I was stuck there for too long, so there was a shadow in my heart. When Shen Jinyan flicked to the love part, the same situation reappeared.

Qiao Jinling on the side watched her every move, and encouraged her aloud: "Be careful, don't be discouraged, try playing again next time, maybe you will succeed!"

"Jin Ling, I—"

The word "No" almost blurted out when it came to his lips, but after seeing the look of expectation on Qiao Jinling's face, he stopped his mouth abruptly and swallowed those two words back into his stomach.

Thinking that in order to avenge her parents, in the first few years of her mission, she gritted her teeth and persevered because of the difficult mission and multiple injuries, just because she refused to admit defeat and refused to bow to fate, so she kept carrying it at the price of blood.

"I'll try playing it again."

Qiao Jinling gave Shen Jinyan a look of approval, and answered with a low grace.

Under his gaze, Shen Jinyan plucked the strings twice to get the tone right, and then plucked the strings again.

The melodious and melodious tune sounded again, and the rhythm gradually changed from cheerful to sweet.

Thinking of playing the love part next, Shen Jinyan couldn't help but feel dizzy. However, just when she didn't know how to play or how to express, a hand came down from behind, not waiting for her. After reacting, the big warm hand had already grasped her hand and plucked the strings skillfully, playing the love part.

The sharp profile of the face was gradually enlarged in the eyes, and a clear bamboo fragrance mixed with male masculinity came to the nostrils. After taking a few deep breaths, Shen Jinyan felt a rush of blood rushing to his forehead.

Haunted by this breath, she felt like she was about to suffocate.

At that time, Qiao Jinling's hand was still tightly held by Qiao Jinling, and she was pinching and fiddled with the strings. Slowly, Shen Jinyan, who had calmed down, gradually found the feeling. Dao's familiar rhythm played the next part.

As soon as the song fell, when Shen Jinyan came back to his senses, he realized that Qiao Jinling had let go of her hand at some point, walked to the side and stood quietly, but his eyes kept falling on her, but she could vaguely see it. Out, his eye circles were red.

"Jin Ling—" Shen Jinyan yelled worriedly.

"I'm fine, Jinyan, you don't need to worry. Speaking of which, I was just moved by your piano sound." Qiao Jinling smiled, and gave Shen Jinyan a look of affirmation, "Jinyan, you played very well this time. Okay, go back and practice a few more times, as long as you pop out at this level, there are few people in the four kingdoms and six cities!"

"Little girl, thank you Mr. Qiao for your praise." Shen Jinyan joked with a smile.

Seeing her like this, Qiao Jinling shook his head to express his helplessness. Shen Jinyan knew that he was just worrying about his temper, which he likes to be fooled from time to time, so he smiled and said: "Jin Ling, don't worry, if you really need to play this piece in the future, you will definitely live up to it." what you want."

"I believe you can." Qiao Jinling affirmed.

Turning his head to glance at the late-morning sky, he sighed immediately, "No wonder people in the world say that drinking and having fun is the happiest thing. In the past few days, I just felt that the time passed so quickly."

Turning his head to look at the setting sun in the distance, Shen Jinyan said with some nostalgia, "That's true."

These two days were the two days she felt the fastest when she came to this world!But it was also the two days that left the most unforgettable memories.

"Let's go, it's getting late, go back and rest early, stay here tonight, we will go back to the imperial city tomorrow, and you will enter the palace to attend the banquet the day after tomorrow, what will happen then? It all depends on your personal response capable!"

"No matter what happens during the period, the final result is that I will not marry the Ninth Prince!"

Shen Jinyan said calmly, picked up Qing Xiqin on the stone table, turned around and left the gazebo, Qiao Jinling quickly followed.

"Why are you so sure? Don't forget that the emperor's order is greater than the sky. Once the emperor makes an order, you must marry!"

"If this is the case, it will be even simpler. I will make this imperial decree impossible."

"Oh, let me tell you that you already have a countermeasure in mind?"

Facing Qiao Jinling's questioning, Shen Jinling, who didn't want to hide it from him, said with a smile: "Yes, if I didn't have a countermeasure, how dare I say that I will open a casino to place bets, and buy them all if I don't marry the Ninth Prince!"

"I really want to know the power of the Ninth Prince, why don't you want to marry him?"

"There are many princes under the emperor's knees today, and many of them are outstanding. In this way, no matter whether they are capable or not, they will be bewitched by the dragon chair. From then on, they will do things like rabbits and lions, all kinds of intrigues, open competition and secret competition. , and the Ninth Prince was born in the royal family, no matter what happened before and now, he will always be involved by many unintentional people."

"Once the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, the important ministers of the other princes in Zhili will be bloodbathed. I think even the Ninth Prince will not escape. After all, those who sit in that position want to control the world. , and will naturally eradicate any threat, not to mention, the current situation in the four kingdoms and six cities is only superficially calm, and after that, we still don’t know who is the overlord of the world?"

"What's more, the identity difference between me and the Ninth Prince is too big, and I don't like to see each other. I don't like to live in the days when it's easy to hide and difficult to guard. life, so I will not agree to this marriage!"

"Even if I really want to get married in the future, I will definitely not choose the royal family. Since ancient times, the most ruthless emperor's family, for the sake of the throne, there are not a few brothers and sisters who kill each other. Now that I have seen through these, it is even more unnecessary Put your own life on a person who has nothing to do with me, and even sacrifice your own life in vain in the end."
