III Jiangshan

The emperor did not see him for two days, and Mochi missed him for 24 hours.

It's not that he didn't plan to ask the people in Prince Ning's mansion, but it was really difficult for Mochi to face himself who was so obsessive.

The previous time, she asked the maid to inquire if the "Young Master" had arrived in the other courtyard, and invited her when she arrived. Thinking about it later, Mochi felt ashamed.This urgency to see the emperor is too much like... throwing himself into his arms!

To put it bluntly, she lived in King Ning's other courtyard, after all, it was a guest's favor, and it was rare for the master to provide good food and clothing. If she made some other requests, wouldn't it be overkill, too ignorant?

In the end, there is still a feeling of being dependent on others.

Although, Mochi knew that King Ning was happy to help the emperor "hidden the charming".Besides his own request, King Ning was also happy to fulfill it.

I've been here for too long, it's time to go out and have a look.

Mochi stood in front of the table, brushing his slender fingers over the body of "Green Qi", thoughtfully.

According to the original agreement, the Pavilion Master of Liyin Pavilion will send someone to find an opportunity to contact her.But more than half a month passed, but there was no one.

Maybe they were stopped outside the high wall of King Ning's courtyard, right?Mochi thought.

For a person like the Pavilion Master of the Liyin Pavilion, it will be a matter of time before his downfall.

And the emperor owns all the armaments and wealth in the whole world, as long as she doubts, she only needs to take action to investigate, and there is nothing she can't find.

The emperor must have found out her identity and intentions, as well as Liyin Pavilion's conspiracy, which is not difficult for the emperor's identity.

What was really difficult was that she endured, and after many days, she did not reveal her disguise.

Mochi didn't dare to imagine what would happen to him if the emperor tore away the last piece of his dignity and left his original intentions and origins in the sun.

Let me ask, how many people can there be in the world, who can make the emperor who is high above endure so much?

Even if he didn't fall in love with Yuan Youqi, even if it was just for Yuan Youqi's rare patience and her gentle treatment in so many days, Mo Chi still felt that even if Yuan Youqi killed himself immediately, Life is worth living.

"Zheng-"

Inadvertently plucking the strings with the fingertips, a half-bar tune came out.

Immediately afterwards, Mo Chi was shocked by himself.

The half-bar tune is familiar and unfamiliar.

Familiar, because it is the incomparable sacred sound that is precious in her heart; unfamiliar, because she has never played it since she knew the score, even if it is only for herself.

Those are a few tones in a bar of the song "High Mountain and Flowing Water".

According to legend, Yu Boya was good at the piano, and once played the song "High Mountain and Flowing Water" in the mountains, forests and wilderness.The woodcutter Zhong Ziqi passed by and was so impressed by the sound of the piano that he could comprehend the artistic conception of "as towering as Mount Tai, as oceanic as a river" from Yu Boya's piano sound.Yu Boya was overjoyed when he heard that, and made Zhong Ziqi his confidant.

From then on, Boya played the piano and Ziqi listened to the music, and "High Mountains and Flowing Water" became a good story.

Unfortunately, Zhong Ziqi passed away unfortunately.Yu Boya lost his confidant and was in great grief. He broke the strings and shattered the qin, vowing never to play the qin again in his life.

Back then, when Mochi heard this sad story for the first time, he was not only shocked, but also sighed for Boya Ziqi's confidant's affection in the mountains and rivers.She is good at the qin and loves the qin, so she was most impressed by the plot of Boya breaking the strings and smashing the qin.

At that time, she didn't know the meaning of knowing herself, let alone the meaning of the word "love".She just inexplicably felt that this song "High Mountain and Flowing Water" had a deep relationship with her, and every scale on that score could touch her heartstrings, making her feel sad or happy for it.

So, from that time on, the tune of "High Mountain and Flowing Water" has become the most sacred and insurmountable existence in Mochi's heart.

She learned the piano score very quickly, as if she knew it originally, but it gradually faded over time, but once she picked it up, all the faded memories came back, and the impression was even more profound.

Even so, Mochi never played this piece to anyone.

Because in her heart, this piece of music should be played for her bosom friend and bosom friend.

At that time, she obviously had no confidant.

A confidant?

Mochi was in a trance for a while——

On that day, Mochi was still in the letter period.Yuan Youqi saw that she was sleepy and had no energy, so she tried to play a song for Mochi.

The self-deprecating words of "banmen make axe" came from the mouth of the dignified emperor, and Mochi thought it was funny, so he played Yuan Youqi's favorite tune.

Yuan Youqi washed his hands joyfully, and arranged his clothes solemnly.

Although such small details inevitably remind Mochi of the episode of "Love Red", seeing that the emperor cherishes the qin so much, Mochi still thinks so deeply in his heart, and can't help but nod in praise: "The qin is a gentleman's instrument, your majesty." It can be an example of a gentleman.”

When Yuan Youqi heard this, he naturally grinned, his slender fingers waved the strings slowly, and after playing a few notes, he tilted his head and asked Mochi, "Master Mo, if this is the case, can there be such a thing as 'everything knows spring, awe-inspiring and clean'?" ' mean?"

Mochi "puchi" laughed.

"All things know the spring, the gentle breeze" and "awe-inspiring and clean, the snowy bamboos" are the words of praise for the song "Yangchun Baixue" by later generations.The scales played by Yuan Youqi come from this piece.

Mo Chi said seriously again: "I dare not be that."

Yuan Youqi also laughed.

"Everyone" is a respectful title for those who are erudite and profound in a certain field, and it is also a respectful title for women. Mochi is humble, so he naturally calls it "dare not to be".

And this "dare not to be" has another meaning, which is to imply that Yuan Youqi's piano skills are far behind those of real seniors!

Of course, there is also a little ridicule from Mochi.

Yuan Youqi is very self-aware, or why would he use the name of "the classmate to make an axe" in the first place to laugh at himself?

The two had a small exchange of wit, and they both felt that their hearts were getting closer to each other.

Yuan Youqi's heart was warm and harmonious.

She inhaled, restrained her face, put her hands on the strings, and slowly pushed them away.

"Green Qi" is like a quiet lake, sometimes it is lightly tapped by the fingertips like flying feathers, and the water ripples dance for a while, and then disappear; , and then turn back, the meaning is still unfinished.

After the song "Yangchun Baixue", Yuan Youqi didn't move his fingers, but his mood couldn't help but still vibrated with the waves of strings.

Mo Chi's eyes were watching Yuan Youqi's every move from beginning to end.

Her mood didn't follow the tune, but it changed for the tune.Because the person who played the tune was Yuan Youqi; the one who plucked the strings was Yuan Youqi's fingers.

Gradually, Mochi felt that not only his own heart, but also his own god and soul were all caught in this vortex called "Yuan Youqi".

Don't say she can't extricate herself, she is already trapped in it, and she loves it.

Without warning, Mochi blurted out: "The night is long and the wine is dark, the fire is cold and the lights are green, but there are thousands of sorrows. The green piano sighs three times and Zhu Xianjue, with whom to sing, Yangchun Baixue."

Then, feel lost.

Those are Zhao Ding's words, which completely express the loneliness in the eyes and the desolation in the heart.

Mo Chi didn't know why he suddenly came up with such words, but the feeling was very clear.

As if, on a certain month and night in the distant year, she was so lonely guarding a pot of dirty wine, facing the stars all over the sky, full of sorrow, accompanied by cup after cup of bitter drinking.

Even the biting night wind could not blow away the irritability in her heart; the countless stars in the sky could not drive away her infinite loneliness.

Mochi's heart throbbed slightly because of the scene in his mind that had never existed in his memory.

Raising her eyes in a trance, she met Yuan Youqi's complicated eyes.

Mochi looked at the confused and inexplicable self reflected in the amber pair, and Yuan Youqi's murmur sounded in his ears: "Who are you singing with? Who are you singing with..."

Yuan Youqi's eyes revealed some anticipation.

She hesitated, not knowing why she was hesitating.

After all, I couldn't help it, and met Mochi's gaze: "Can you play a song..."High Mountain and Flowing Water" for me?"

There was a slight pain in the fingertips, as if suddenly being brushed by a sharp edge.

Mochi raised his finger in surprise, staring blankly at the deep white mark on his fingertip——

She recalled all kinds of things about that Yen Youqi, but at some point, she unconsciously pressed hard on the strings, almost cutting her fingers.

The finger was not broken, but her heart was cut because of the memory.

That day, Yuan Youqi didn't get the answer she wanted.

And while Mo Chi didn't give her the answer she wanted, tears wet her eyes inexplicably because of Yuan Youqi's question.

What's even more inexplicable is that she actually asked Yuan Youqi: "If Ziqi passes away, will Boya break the string?"

While Yuan Youqi was puzzled for a moment, he was even more astonished at the tears she shed without warning.

Yuan Youqi was obviously flustered, and didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just coaxed Mochi considerately, and specially found all kinds of interesting words to please her and tease her until Mochi laughed out of tears. A turmoil is gradually subsided.

From then on until he left, Yuan Youqi never mentioned anything about Qin again.The sense of guilt in Mochi's heart is getting thicker and thicker.

All right, why are you crying?

It's all good, so why do you want to say something about death or death?

Mochi is still asking himself non-stop at this moment.

Relying on the confidence period, relying on the fact that the emperor cares about himself, can't he help but be unscrupulous?

Anyone who faces such a weird and neurotic woman like myself will get tired of it for a long time, right?Would she be bored too?

She hasn't come for two days, does she also think I'm boring?

Mochi was thinking wildly, and the more she thought about it, the more tired and helpless she felt. The strange but familiar feeling of loneliness and restlessness attacked her again.

There is no need to be awakened by bitter wine, nor is it necessary to look down at the stars all over the sky.

She could only hold the royal blue half-old purse still left by Yuan Youqi, curled up on the couch, let herself think about it, and suddenly felt that she was completely like a boudoir, she despised even more Get yourself up.

So dazzled thoughts, repeated several times, Mochi is really tired, tired.She clutched the old purse just like that, and fell asleep.

And in the dream, the tall laurel tree, and the girl in men's clothing who leaned over the laurel tree and smiled sweetly at her, appeared again.
