The yard next door.

Qi Yichen was sitting in a wheelchair, holding his lavender jade flute in his hand, looking up at the sky full of stars.

His eyes were hollow and deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Eunuch Deng, who was accompanying him, sighed in his heart. His prince was obviously the most noble person in the world.

He is the God of War praised by everyone and the patron saint of our country. When talking about his prince, no one can say that he is unparalleled in bravery and intelligence.

But fate can play tricks on people. On the last battlefield, the prince was plotted by the enemy and his legs were disabled for life.

After that, the prince's temper became colder and colder, and he spoke even less.

Not long ago, he was even named Xianwang by the emperor.

Originally, if he had won that battle, his Xian Wang would have been canonized as the crown prince, but now he has no chance of that position.

The emperor has no choice. The emperor cannot allow a person with leg problems and infertility to sit.

Therefore, even if the emperor only has one prince, he cannot ignore the opinions of the ministers.

I heard that several young masters in the clan were very active and wanted that position.

"Push this prince back to his room." Qi Yichen's cold voice sounded, and Eunuch Deng immediately pushed the prince back to his room.

After Eunuch Deng stepped back, Qi Yichen's eyes were sinister, and he held his trouser legs tightly with his hands, blue veins popped out, and the huge pain in his right leg made his face turn pale.

There was also a thin trickle of sweat on his forehead.

He has endured this pain for two consecutive years.

It was not that he had no feeling on both sides of his legs, but that he had no feeling on one side and was in unbearable pain on the other.

The attacks occur irregularly, and once they occur, the pain is excruciating.

Qi Yichen gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, enduring this round of severe pain.

A beautiful and melodious piano sound slowly sounded, and the clear and smart piano sound flowed back and forth.

Qi Yichen's thoughts were also carried away by the sound of the piano.

The song is over.

Only then did Qi Yichen realize that the painful process for him had passed.

Looking out the window, through the walled courtyard, my eyes became deeper.

That night, Qi Yichen slept extremely deeply, which even Eunuch Deng found surprising.

Over there, Xu Jinyi moved the piano out again, and even moved it to the edge of the walled courtyard: "Bai Zhi, do you think we should go out together after we leave here?"

"Young lady, you are really joking. Our young lady is a lady of the house. I don't know how many people want to marry me when we get home."

"Marry? I haven't thought about this problem. I finally got out of this pit of fire. Do I have to dig my own grave?"

"When a person is free, unrestrained and does whatever he wants, why should I push myself into the grave of marriage again."

Bai Zhi opened her mouth wide, feeling that her young lady's words were a bit out of line.

How come marriage is related to the grave?

Looking at her young lady, tears slowly appeared in Bai Zhi's eyes.

Her young lady must have been heartbroken by her uncle and couldn't believe the marriage.

Xu Jinyi raised her head and looked at the birds flying in the sky, and said loudly in a clear voice: "From now on, I will be an eagle flying freely in the sky."

His tone was full of hope for the future, but he became discouraged the next second.

"Speak of a free eagle. I'm still a canary in a cage. How long do I have to stay in this shabby yard?"

"Although King Xian has inconvenient legs and feet, he can go anywhere. I'm not even as good as King Xian. So what if I have legs? Can I step out of this yard?"

Bai Zhi rolled her eyes in shock when she heard this, and said nervously: "Miss, you must not say this nonsense. The person living next door is King Xian. The wall and courtyard are high, but you are not afraid of anything but ten thousand. If the prince really If we live next door, if we hear what you say, we will all be doomed.”

Qi Yichen's face was full of anger after hearing Xu Jinyi's words, his eyes became dark, and he stared at the wall courtyard closely.

Eunuch Deng was even more frightened by Xu Jinyi in the yard next door.

After the prince's leg happened, no one dared to mention it in front of him.

The girl next door is a little too courageous. She is risking her life.

Seeing signs that the prince was angry, Eunuch Deng knew that the woman next door might not survive the day.

"No, King Xian is an unparalleled hero. His inconvenient legs and feet are not a stain on him, but a symbol of heroism."

"Without him, we might have been invaded by the enemy, our families were destroyed, and we were displaced. It was he who sacrificed himself to protect us."

"And even if he wants my life, I will give it to him."

The anger in Qi Yichen's brows and eyes disappeared in an instant because of Xu Jinyi's few words.

In the past few years since he was injured, all his relatives and friends have felt sorry for his leg, and the common people have also sadly lost a god of war.

Everyone looked at him with sympathy and said that his temper had become violent.

But no one remembers how and why his leg was injured.

I didn't expect to hear her admiration for me from a girl's mouth today.

Yes, Qi Yichen heard admiration from Xu Jinyi's words.

His mood improved because of these few words. It turned out that there were still people who remembered his achievements.

It had been a long time since he had seen such a big change in his master's mood, which made Eunuch Deng curious about the identity of the woman next door.

Immediately there was a burst of cheerful piano music, and Qi Yichen left to have a meal after listening.

In this way, Qi Yichen slowly figured out the time Xu Jinyi played the piano every day.

When it was almost time, he asked Eunuch Deng to push him to the yard.

It was rare that the prince was interested in something, so Eunuch Deng tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to invite the piano player over and let her play for the prince every day?"

Qi Yichen raised his eyes and looked at Eunuch Deng: "No need."

On this day, Qi Yichen sat in the yard after dinner as usual.

Waiting for the beautiful sound of the piano to come from the yard next door.

After waiting for a long time, the next door was still quiet, and he frowned slightly.

Little did he know that Xu Jinyi was invited to the Liu family hall.

Mrs. Liu was furious when she saw Xu Jinyi walking towards her.

"Xu Jinyi, what are you thinking about? It's just that you haven't been able to give Yan'er a boy and a half girl for three years, and now you are preventing him from marrying the princess and hampering his career."

"What evil did our Liu family do to marry such a jealous daughter-in-law like you?"

Mrs. Liu was a common citizen. Her grandson finally became an official, and she also enjoyed the blessings.

In the beginning, when her son married Xu Jinyi, Mrs. Liu was very kind to Xu Jinyi.

At that time, Xu Jinyi was helpful to her grandson's career and she was a lady, so Mrs. Liu was very kind to Xu Jinyi.

But as time passed and Xu Jinyi's stomach remained silent, Mrs. Liu began to look more and more displeased with Xu Jinyi.

When the two met, Mrs. Liu was even more disgusted with her, and until now she was completely merciless.

The tone was extremely unpleasant.

In the past, Xu Jinyi kept silent.

After all, her upbringing taught her that she should serve her parents-in-law after getting married.

Xu Jinyi didn't take this old witch seriously now.

He immediately responded: "Are you sure that your son will be born? How do you know it's not him who has the problem?"
