The Princess's Deadly Daily Life
Chapter 161 Seemingly Ruthless but Full of Affection
Li Yu's mind was suddenly in a mess, and he thought that maybe the musician in front of him was Ajie's man?
After a long while, he said in a daze, "Let's just play the song from yesterday."
"Your Majesty, wait... wait!"
Li Yu and Li Xiying looked at Zhang Zhusi at the same time.
Zhang Zhusi blushed and paused for a long time before she timidly asked, "Can I play with my sister?"
Li Yu looked at her with curved eyebrows in confusion. This was originally a solo performance and he had not looked closely at the young musician just now. But now he found that she was holding a sheng in her hand, and it was obvious that she came prepared.
Li Xiying hadn't noticed the sheng in her hand just now. She only knew that she was carrying a bulging small bag when she followed her. Although she knew it was a musical instrument, she had never heard her mention it.
I don't know whether she had the idea of playing together in the past or it was just a sudden idea.
Sensing a hint of confusion in A-di's gaze, Li Xi agreed, "Your Majesty has only heard this piece played solo, and has never heard it played together with the pipa and sheng. Perhaps you could give it a try?"
Now that it was all said and done, there was no need to extinguish Zhang Zhusi's hope at the critical moment. After all, A-di had no intention of listening to the music. He just wanted to find out who played the music and where it came from.
Zhang Zhusi gave him a grateful look, her fingers trembling as if she was about to cry.
"Don't be nervous, I can wait for you." Li Xiying said in a voice that both of them could hear.
After all, it's just a little girl's wish. She wants more people to recognize what she loves, but she's afraid of not giving her the opportunity.
Zhang Zhusi held the sheng tightly and nodded continuously: "I can do it!"
As Li Xiying's pipa started to tune first, the melody was so vivid that it caught the heartstrings, and then the sheng also slowly started to sound and entered the state.
Zhang Zhusi played the chord very well. The soft and melodious sound of the sheng and the clear and bright sound of the pipa complemented each other and brought out the charm of the song even more than a solo.
At the end of the song, Li Xiying looked at Zhang Zhusi with admiration. He didn't expect that this young woman could play the sheng so well. It seemed that she was very interested in it and put a lot of thought into it. So it was understandable that she had the courage to just want a chance to perform this time.
Just thinking about how warmly I treated her yesterday, so this is the real purpose?
Someone outside the hall came over to applaud and said, "It's really beautiful! These two female musicians played really well!"
Following the sound, I saw someone coming from outside the temple.
The man was quite tall, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle. His arrogant look was very similar to Zhu Wen, except that he lacked the murderous aura.
This person is different from Zhu Youzhen. Zhu Youzhen is more like his mother Zhang Hui, with peach blossom eyes and thin lips. He seems ruthless but affectionate, so Li Xiying guessed that he is another son of Zhu Wen.
"Your Majesty."
He bowed slightly to Li Yu, lazily and casually, and walked to his side with a wave of his hand, found a place to sit down.
This look made Li Xiying confused.
"It's Zhu Yougui. What brings you here?" Li Yu responded to the other party's praise and perfunctory courtesy with a fake smile.
This is used again...
"Isn't it because father is afraid that Your Majesty will be bored that he wants me and my brother to accompany Your Majesty from time to time? Father really has good intentions."
The words sounded so sanctimonious that Li Xiqie, who was sitting below, couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
To be able to talk about surveillance in such a high-sounding way, he really deserves to be the son of Zhu Ze!
"I heard that your majesty has found a new musician who plays the pipa well and is more beautiful than a flower. I came to meet her and broaden my father's horizons. The tune I just heard was so melodious and lingering... She lived up to your expectations." He raised his eyebrows, and his eagle eyes stared at the two women in front of him with interest, his eyes full of mischief.
Li Xiqi frowned even more tightly. Zhu Yougui used Zhu Ze to suppress A Di, praising him openly and criticizing him secretly, just like admiring a butterfly with broken wings... his eyes were full of amusement.
A-di's reaction seemed to be commonplace.
"You seem to like joking more and more, but are the things that kill time worthy of being called knowledge and vision?"
Li Yu was calm and composed, and glanced at him without any anger or annoyance. "I was just listening to some music, just some pleasant sounds. I am not like your father... The Prime Minister is busy with state affairs, and he has no time to spare, right?"
It was not that he did not know what Zhu Wen was planning. Almost everyone in the huge Luoyang Palace was on his side. Now his son wanted to laugh at him for trying to have fun in misery?
"It's good that Your Majesty knows my grandfather's good intentions!" Zhu Yougui's gaze stayed on Li Xiying for a moment, then shifted to Zhang Zhusi beside him.
He started the conversation casually and familiarly: "Little Ah Zhu, I haven't seen you for a year, but you have become more graceful."
Zhu Yougui walked slowly towards Zhang Zhusi and brushed her hair. "Tell your cousin why you are so depressed that you want to be a musician."
Zhang Zhusi looked at the gloomy little emperor and the puzzled Li Qing, and immediately realized that the atmosphere was awkward. She held her breath and said, "Yaoxi, why are you here too?"
But before he could answer, Zhang Zhusi immediately asked, "Could it be that you also have an official position in this Pepper Palace?"
This question made Zhu Yougui's face darken. He sneered twice: "My cousin is still as aggressive as before." Then he narrowed his eyes slightly, "If my cousin is performing a good show here and I am not here to appreciate it, wouldn't it be a great pity?"
Li Xi was watching this farce from the side, feeling puzzled. She had never thought that this bamboo silk actually had a background. No wonder she was different from others in the music studio, and Dian Le easily agreed to many of her requests. It turned out that she was a relative of Zhang Hui.
Zhang Zhusi's face turned purple, and she couldn't think of a good answer. She just didn't want to pay any more attention to him.
But even if she didn't want to pay attention, he still wanted to get close to her and talk, and helped her smooth down her hair, "Tell me, why can't your aunt understand why she sent you to the palace and joined the ranks of slaves? It's such a waste of talent, what a pity..."
Unfortunately, she could have married his brother as his legal wife, but she was unable to do so due to her low social status.
Zhang Zhusi interrupted him hastily before he could finish his teasing words. How could she let him ruin his reputation? She just said, "Yao Xi! Don't talk about things that didn't happen. Besides, I didn't join the slave class. I asked my mother to ask my aunt to let me enter the palace to study. My aunt passed away a few months ago, so I thought I would leave the palace and go home in a few months. I won't stay long!"
"What are you learning? Haha..." Zhu Yougui raised his head and laughed, looking down at her, "I'm afraid you are pretending to learn, and you really want to meet your future husband? I remember your uncle said that you will marry my brother after you reach the age of 15? Are you pretending to learn music, and you really want to see my brother more in advance? But you happened to meet me today, it can be considered fate. If I ask my father to marry you, it will definitely be a golden marriage!"
As he spoke, Zhu Yougui was about to reach out and pinch Zhang Zhusi's moist little face.
"You!" Zhang Zhusi raised her eyebrows...
"Yao Xi, don't be rude." A male voice sounded, and the restless hand was restrained.
"Youzhen?" Li Yu's expression softened a little when he saw that he didn't look like Zhu Yougui.
Zhu Youzhen bowed respectfully to Li Yu, "Your Majesty."
Li Yu nodded, and his ears suddenly felt a lot calmer when he saw that someone was finally able to put an end to this farce.
