The beauty is delicate and soft, and he madly criticizes the powerful officials for taking her as th

Yu Tingwan pursed her lips and said, "You heard wrong."

"Maybe." Pei Zhi didn't refute, the smile on his lips remained unchanged, and he said softly: "What did you play just now to make you so happy?"

"Shoot."

Seeing that she had become less talkative, Pei Zhi didn't ask any more questions. He had already reached the vestibule and was about to sit down when he said, "My aunt just said that there is a cook in the house who is good at cooking Qingzhou cuisine. I wonder if you like it."

Yu Tingwan sat at the top, next to Zhao Qing.

Hearing this, she nodded and said, "Since it was arranged by my aunt, I naturally like it."

Pei Zhi was with her. After the banquet started, he stopped talking and remained silent and solemn as a handsome gentleman in front of everyone.

There were some singers and dancers in Zhao Qing's house, who came out to sing and dance during banquets. Pei Zhi didn't like noise at all. At this moment, the lingering sounds in his ears were mixed with the chatter of the people, which was particularly annoying.

Pei Zhi looked at the various dishes in front of him and felt that he had no appetite. He just wanted to go back to Guanjuyuan with Yu Ting in the evening.

The singing and dancing below suddenly stopped, and a girl with her eyes covered with moon-white silk came forward, saluted Zhao Qing and said, "My maid specially learned "Xiaoxiang Yun" to wish His Highness a birthday."

This girl is the daughter of Zhao Qing's cousin and was born in the Guo family. Her mother came to Zhao Qing specifically and cried miserably: "Your Highness has been in Beihu for twenty years, and the Guo family has not been able to help. Old Madam I was still thinking about His Highness before I died."

Zhao Qing's grandmother treated her very well, and a few words aroused her inner sorrow. Mrs. Guo took advantage of the situation and mentioned: "Zhen'er has been suffering from eye diseases since she was a child and could not find a good match. I heard that on the day of His Highness's birthday party, there were many The noble lady is also here, can you please let Zhen'er show her face?"

The Guo family did not climb up to Pei Xu back then, but now it is in decline. Many banquets have not been received, which is really not good to see. Zhao Qing hesitated for a few days, and finally Mrs. Guo pulled Guo Zhen over and played "Xiaoxiang Yun" written by Princess Chengyang back then.

The girl was a little introverted and shy and said: "Your Highness, I have admired Princess Chengyang since I was a child, but I can't find a famous teacher, so I have to figure it out on my own. How do I play it?"

Zhao Qing was a little unbelievable. How long would it take for a blind man to play the pipa? She glanced at Guo Zhen's hands and finally said, "Okay, there will be many distinguished guests that day. Remember not to be rude."

Since it was arranged in advance, Zhao Qing looked calm at the moment, not surprised at all, and nodded in agreement.

When Yu Tingwan heard the words "Xiao Xiang Yun", he looked up curiously and saw a slim girl sitting in the center. Although her eyes were covered, she could still tell that she was a beauty.

Seeing that she could actually play the pipa, Yu Tingwan became more and more interested, but the more he listened, the more strange he felt.

Zhao Qing's face was also ugly. "Xiaoxiang Yun" was originally written by her sister before she went to Jingyi. It was generous and decisive without any coyness.

That was the song for saying goodbye to Pei Xu. You go to Xiaoxiang and I go to Qin.

At this moment, he was being played with a lingering emotion, and there was a hint of an outpouring of feelings. Zhao Qing understood that he was being treated differently, and tightened his grip on the wine cup in his hand.

Pei Zhi had no expression on his face and glanced at Yu Tingwan. Seeing that she was listening carefully, he suddenly chuckled, took her left hand and whispered: "I can also play this song. If Wan Wan likes it, I will go back and play it for you." listen."

Yu Tingwanzheng felt that it was a pity that this piece was originally a piano piece, and he thought he could play something new with the pipa, but he didn't expect it to be so mediocre.

She turned her head to look at Pei Zhi, frowned and lowered her voice: "Everyone else is watching, stay away from me."

Pei Zhi saw the shame and anger on her face, fearing that she would ignore him again when she went back, so he let go silently.

The girl holding the pipa played to the end, and the band covering her eyes suddenly fell down. The song ended. Although she was facing Zhao Qing when she saluted, her eyes lightly glanced at King Wei.

Huan Siniang saw clearly from the side and suddenly sneered, "I have heard for a long time that the young daughter of the Guo family is blind. It seems that the rumors are not credible."

Many people in Chang'an knew that Guo Zhen was blind. After all, the Guo family had found countless doctors for her over the years.

But that look just now was shy and timid, not like a blind man at all, which was surprising.

Mrs. Guo quickly said: "Zhen'er has suffered from eye disease due to high fever since she was a child. It's useless to search for famous doctors, otherwise she wouldn't have to go out with her eyes covered every day."

Pei Zhi had a faint smile on his face. He looked at the girl who was still standing below and said in a calm tone, "Really?"

Seeing the King of Wei speaking, the people below tried to figure out what he meant. A middle-aged man said: "In the past, Mrs. Gou Yi's condition of being unable to bend or extend her fingers was cured when she first met Emperor Wu. It can be seen that today she is protected by the king's energy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Du glanced at King Wei's expression out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that the smile on his lips became gentler, but his eyes did not change at all, he knew how angry he was at the moment.

Chen Du and Guo didn't deal with it very much, and they lowered their heads and smiled with some gloating.

Sure enough, Pei Zhi lightly knocked on the table and asked, "Who is your father?"

Guo Zhen's father stood up. Pei Zhi didn't bother to watch him salute and say hello. He raised his hand to signal him to stand still and said in a calm tone: "What do you think of what the man just said?"

Guo Zhen's father was in a cold sweat. King Wei's reaction was not what he expected.

His daughter was not blind, but she was born with eyes that were different from ordinary people. He was afraid that others would comment, so he kept covering it up. Today, he just wanted to give his daughter to the King of Wei as a concubine.

But it is difficult for anyone to deny that he is special to others, and Han Wu is not immune to this, not to mention the king of Wei.

The Guo family felt that King Wei had no reason to refuse, so they accepted Guo Zhen as a concubine and an auspicious sign that could prove the emperor's aura.

Pei Zhi kept staring at him, his eyes becoming more and more gloomy. When he saw his silence, he said with a chilly tone: "Someone compared your daughter to Mrs. Gou Yi. Do you think so too?"

"Your Highness, how dare I..." He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know the reason for what happened today. Maybe my little girl just felt the king's aura and could see things for a moment."

Everyone glanced at Guo Zhen, and sure enough her eyes were dull, as if the flash in her eyes was just a flash in the pan.

Pei Zhi put away his smile and nodded: "What do you mean, she has always been blind and can only see when she sees Gu?"

Before Master Guo could speak, Pei Zhi raised his hand slightly, and his tone was as cold as ice: "You will know if it is true or not, just try it."

Dragon Slayer Guard walked up to Guo Zhen, held the sword at his waist, "I'm offended."

Before she finished speaking, the sharp sword was unsheathed, cold light shone in her eyes, and the tip of the sword was pressed between her eyebrows.

The girl, whose eyes were blank, couldn't help but yelled out of control, stepped back and fell to the ground.

Yu Tingwan didn't expect Pei Zhi to use his sword at the birthday banquet. He was shocked for a moment and turned his head to look at him.

"What's the crime for pretending to be a ghost?" Pei Zhi looked down at Mr. Guo who was looking down. He noticed that the woman beside him was frightened, so he took her left hand and squeezed it gently.

There was silence again. Pei Zhi was a little impatient and calmed down his emotions and said to Zhao Qing: "I am just a guest today, so everything should be left to my aunt."

Zhao Qing ordered people to take the Guo family out and let the dancers and singers who had just stopped continue.

After the luncheon was over, Pei Zhi looked at Yu Tingwan and asked in a low voice, "Did I scare you just now?"

"No." She shook her head, "I was just a little surprised and felt it was unnecessary."

Pei Zhi stopped talking and looked at her quietly, with anger hidden in his eyes, which made her a little panicked.

"Why do you look at me like this?" Yu Tingwan moved her lips, "It's not that I made you unhappy."

Thinking of Yu Tingwan's mediocre reaction from beginning to end, Pei Zhi felt a sudden anger rising, but he didn't know who to target.
