When Shang Yiqing heard the song, she was shocked. She moved again and again, only to hear her singing it twice. She was singing it so well, comparable to the Willow Flute in the original version. When did he learn to play this song? Such a moving tune was actually slowly flowing in Fang Zinan's flute.
Other than Shang Yiqing, no one present had ever heard this melody before. They only felt that it was a long and lingering melody, a melodious melody that was extremely pleasing to the ear.
Looking at Fang Zinan's sword-like profile, Shang Yiqing had a strange feeling in her heart. She subconsciously followed the tune. Her voice was very soft and her voice was thin and fresh. Along with the melodious sound of Fang Zinan's flute, it was as if her heart was melted by an icy chill. Shang Yiqing was completely immersed in the song. The sound of the flute lit up her eyes and warmed her heart.
Fang Zinan's usually calm face unexpectedly revealed a strange expression. His face naturally revealed a faint smile.
When Fang Zinan's flute stopped, Shang Yiqing's singing also stopped. When she saw everyone looking at her strangely, she suddenly felt embarrassed. What was this? Did everyone think that the couple was just showing off their love here? What would Big Brother Xiao think? Thinking of Xiao Tianyuan, she couldn't help but panic. She didn't want to play along with Fang Zinan, but this song was too much for her to handle. When he looked at Xiao Tianyuan's face, Xiao Tianyuan's expression was as cold as usual. It was impossible to see his sadness and joy. It was as if his expression hadn't changed at all.
King Xuan chuckled as he looked at the two, revealing a mischievous expression. "I've never heard this piece before. Could it be that Prince Rong made it for my consort?"
"This is the princess' favorite song. I'm just trying to play it." Fang Zinan spoke with confidence and confidence, completely ignoring King Xuan's mockery.
Ying Ying was stunned for a moment. So Fang Zinan was playing this song for the princess. It seemed like the couple had a good relationship, but what did she count as? Thinking of this, his face darkened, but he did not say anything for a long time.
At that moment, the pavilion fell silent and no one spoke. On the other hand, it was Xiao Tianyuan who couldn't help but say: "Prince Rong played the flute well and the princess sang well. This has really broadened our horizons."
Ying Ying's smile faded as she said, "Take a seat first. I'm going to the garden to see if the few purple jasmine stalks have blossomed yet." Without waiting for a response, he walked into the garden.
It was because of Ying Ying that Duke Xuan had come to the Xiao manor. Seeing her walk into the garden, he hurriedly stood up. "I will follow Miss Xiao to see Zi Jasmine." Then he followed.
The three of them were the only ones left in the pavilion. Fang Zinan put down the flute, picked up a cup of tea, and slowly savored it. He then raised his head and said to Xiao Tianyuan, "Brother Xiao, I should have come to visit you earlier, it's just that …"
Xiao Tianyuan interrupted him, "I know your health has never been good. My injuries are the only ones that have recovered. You still need to be careful."
Shang Yiqing opened her mouth, wanting to tell him that Fang Zinan had long recovered from his injuries, but she felt it was boring to tell him, so she restrained herself.
On the other hand, Fang Zinan nodded calmly: "Even so, I really can't thank you enough for saving me!"
"Is there a need to be so courteous between us?" Xiao Tianyuan smiled disdainfully: "I wasn't trying to save you that day. The reason we did that was to save the emperor. As long as the emperor is safe and sound, we as his subjects would feel at ease."
"I really didn't expect Brother Xiao to be so loyal and patriotic." Shang Yiqing praised.
"As an official, this is natural." Xiao Tianyuan replied Shang Yiqing stiffly, as if he was mumbling to himself, "Ning Wang shouldn't have done that this time. It's a waste of His Majesty's fist that was aimed at him."
"Ning Wang has already been imprisoned by the emperor. He should know that he was wrong."
"However, saving the emperor this time has been a great achievement. The emperor has bestowed upon you the title of a prince, but I have yet to personally congratulate you. This goblet of wine will be treated as my congratulations!" Xiao Tian Yuan raised the teacup in his hand and replied to Fang Zi Nan before gulping it down.
"You said I was polite? I think you're being too polite. " Fang Zinan smiled.
Shang Yiqing smiled lightly and said sincerely: "Brother Xiao, if it wasn't for you that day, Fang Zinan's life would have been in danger! Every time we meet with danger, you would stand up for us, and I don't know how to thank you. "
"Don't say 'thank you' anymore. Let's drink." Xiao Tian Yuan raised his glass at the two of them and the three of them looked at each other and smiled.
Xiao Tian Ying walked into the garden and turned left onto a small path. There was a thick bamboo forest growing along the lake shore. At this moment, she heard the melody of Fang Zinan and Shang Yiqing playing together. She found it hard to accept. Although she already knew that they were husband and wife and that there was nothing wrong with their relationship, she knew Fang Zinan's attitude when they were in Lishan. Why did their relationship suddenly soar? Could it be that the relationship between the two of them had changed in the past two months? The last shred of hope in her heart had also disappeared. It seemed that it was time to let go.
With this thought in mind, she stood up against the bamboo, leaning on the lake shore. Her grieving face was reflected in the lake water, and it seemed as if there were tears flowing down her face.
When King Xuan walked over, he saw Xiao Tianyi leaning against the lakeside as if she was thinking about something. He couldn't help but walk forward and ask, "Miss Ying Ying, what are you doing?"
Just as Xiao Tian Ying was thinking about this and giving a question to others, she suddenly realized that her feet had slipped and she had fallen into the lake.
When King Xuan saw this, he rushed forward and grabbed Xiao Tian Ying's left hand in a flurry. He pulled her back forcefully and she fell into his embrace.
"You …" Ying Ying's face turned red. Other than Prince Rong, she had never been so intimate with a man before. Now that she had pulled Prince Xuan away, her entire face turned red as she forcefully pulled away from his grasp.
"Miss, be careful." Even though King Xuan had said those words, he did not intend to let go of Xiao Tian Ying. Her jade-like hands were so soft that it seemed boneless as they were gripped within, causing one's heart to involuntarily tremble.
Xiao Tianyi took two steps back and tried to struggle free from his large hand. However, King Xuan clenched his fist tightly and had no intention of letting go.
"Your Highness, I am no longer in danger, please let me go." Xiao Tian Ying took in a deep breath. She was also a martial artist. Being gripped by King Xuan, she tried several times but was unable to break free.
"Although This King is reluctant to let go, since the lady has said so, how can This King be so rebellious?" As he spoke, he loosened his hand and King Xuan fixed his gaze on her.
