"Why did you go back on your word? I already know about the Jingshui Temple incident. If you had been more vigilant, my plan would not have gone wrong. Yun Shuo, you have already committed treason and collusion with the enemy. Don't think you can get away with it!"

The words in the letter were full of resentment. Yun Shuo sneered, tore the letter into pieces, and threw it into the pool.

It seems that even this cannot overthrow the Regent. The partner he chose is indeed not very smart. What a pity.

Well, anyway, Sisi doesn't seem to be so resistant to his approach recently. He can plan slowly. She is the most soft-hearted person. As long as he takes it step by step, there will be a day when she will accept it.

Yun Nian returned to her room. She shook the jade pendant in her hand. Although Wei Qingjue said that the item was returned to its original owner, she did not have this item in her memory.

She opened the side door and saw an antique piano inside. There was not a speck of dust on it, and it looked like it had been carefully wiped.

She asked Wei Qingjue to deliver this. He did not ask any questions but nodded in agreement. In just a few hours, the zither and a few feather-light shawls were delivered.

She stroked the strings of the zither as if she were stroking some precious treasure. Indeed, the thing Wei Qingjue gave her was definitely not an ordinary item.

The "Spring Peace" in her boudoir was a unique piece of music that she had created with great care, but the one she was touching now was far beyond her imagination.

The surface of the zither is dark green and deep red. It has been passed down for who knows how many years. There are cracks on it like crabapple flowers and patterns like snakes.

But when I plucked the strings gently, the broken part did not have any negative impact on the sound. It sounded crisp when I plucked the strings lightly, and heavy when I plucked them hard. It was exciting and steady at the same time.

At the end of the guqin, there is a mark.

She bent down to look, and silently read aloud,

"Heart Jade..."

"Sitting with my heart jade in my arms, I feel sad and thoughtful, not noticing the green hills turning dark, who can tell me about my beauty's excitement?"

This is a treasure from the previous dynasty. It is said that it was destroyed in the war. Yun Nian never thought that he could see the legendary famous zither.

She sat down on the stool and took a deep breath.

In the rainstorm, the sound of the leaf flute made her realize that there were too many mysteries surrounding her. She had lost her memory and was afraid of her relatives getting close to her.

And most importantly, why did she know the enchanting song from Ke Luo?

She could not forget the surprised and astonished look on Fuqiu's face. Although she did not ask, Yun Nian knew that this was not a song that could be found anywhere.

"Zheng~"

When the strings were plucked, there was a clear humming sound, which seemed to penetrate the wooden door and the clouds and reach the heavens.

She no longer hesitated, and began to play with her fingers, and the music flowed out like flowing water.

At first it was slow, with rippling water, then the speed changed, with the water flowing rapidly.

Later, it was like a waterfall rushing down, hitting the hard rock with overwhelming force.

The guards outside the courtyard began to feel uneasy, as if there was a hammer hitting their heads hard.

Fortunately, when the pain was about to become more and more intense, the sound of the piano suddenly eased, and then slowly, like the soothing whispers between lovers, people unconsciously indulged in it.

When the piano music ended, they suddenly came to their senses, their eyes filled with horror, and their gazes all turned towards the deep courtyard wall.

"what is that?"

"Is that the sound of the young lady's piano?"

"How could there be such a strange and bizarre power? I almost thought I was going to go crazy just now."

They were in doubt and uncertainty, but soon, Yun Shuo called them in.

"Just pretend you don't know what happened today, understand? If I find out who is gossiping behind your back, I will make him regret coming into this world."

The gentle threat made people dare not raise their heads. As guards, they naturally knew that only by keeping secrets could they live longer.

Yun Shuo knocked for a while and asked them to leave. Then he looked at the room with the closed door.

"Sisi, why can you play such a strange piece of music?"

He felt a little uneasy. Everything should be under control, but Yun Nian was like quicksand that he couldn't hold in his hand and had to slip away.

The expression on his face changed several times. Yun Shuo stood in front of the door and knocked.

"Sisi, can I come in?"

He lowered his voice, but the person inside did not respond.

The remnant of the piano music was slowly fading away, and he couldn't help but want to push the door.

"Brother, do you know that I have lost my memory?"

Hearing a doubtful voice from inside, his hand was on the door, but it seemed as if it was fixed, and he didn't dare to raise his hand to push it.

Yun Nian looked at her nails that were trimmed to perfection, the pink color with a crescent-shaped white.

She spread out her palm, revealing the hideous white wound. When she used force just now, she felt a slight pain.

She naturally did not miss the pained look on Wei Qingjue's face when he saw the wound on her palm. He must know the source of the wound.

But she didn't ask directly. She wanted to find a way to restore her memory by herself, and the culprit seemed to be the one outside the door.

He should have known this day would come, right? As the one who made the final decision, he could not shirk his responsibility, whether he regretted or was glad.

He had been deliberately forgetting what he had done, forgetting that Yun Nian's amnesia might have been caused by him.

He even wanted to forget what Fuqiu said, that the soul-transferring technique was so vicious and dangerous.

In the dark night, when he was alone, he tossed and turned in bed, his flesh and blood felt like they were clenched into fists, causing him to feel excruciating pain.

What had he done? He hadn't even told his parents that they had nearly lost their daughter to a fake Yun Jiao.

If the ritual hadn't gone wrong, he would have been in irreparable regret.

Of course, he regretted enough at this moment, and silence was the best response.

"Squeak~"

The door opened, Yun Nian looked up, Yun Shuo's figure looked so dark with his back to the light, she gently pushed him away, asking him not to block her door,

"Sit down."

She spoke softly, then picked up a small branch from the ground and drew circles in the flowerbed next to her.

"Don't you have anything to explain? You, Mother, and Father."

He seemed petrified and couldn't make a sound, but Yun Nian poked the branch hard into the soil, bringing up the rotten body of the bird.
