Witnessing the scene in front of him, the demon noble sitting in the second row couldn't help but said to his friend, "I said, this is really a demon adult. That look is simply protecting food."
It took a long time for the friend to reply in a low voice: "I have a guess, I guess Tunard is finished this time."
The demon nobles approached him cooperatively, and said in a low voice, "What guess?"
"That human being may be His Majesty Tesur, I heard that His Majesty Tesur is pampering a little devil recently."
"But the one in his arms is clearly a human being, and His Majesty Tesur is about the same age as our Majesty, so it's impossible to look so young."
"Don't you think it's nice to play with a little devil lover disguised as a human? What does it mean to change your appearance to His Majesty?"
"What you said makes sense, but it suddenly occurred to me that His Majesty Aimer's rumored age, appearance, and artistic quality are all in line with that human being."
"Impossible, everyone knows that His Majesty Aimer is frigid, and the others are easy to disguise, but this can't be easily changed..."
While the discussions in the audience were whispering, Mona was also worried backstage. But before he could remind Lawrence, he spoke.
"I just want to chop his tongue off." Lawrence groaned softly, covering his forehead, and turned to look at his palace steward, "Mona, I have to go out, our Majesty Aimer will be later. It's going to tear down my theater... well, I hope Aimer can sell me a face."
Tunard suddenly instinctively felt an extremely strong sense of crisis.
And at this moment, most of the sight that was originally betting on him disappeared. He glanced at Ye Yingzhi, took a step back and turned to look at the stage, only to see a tall figure striding out on the stage, it was Lawrence.
It turned out to be Lawrence's eye. Tunard secretly spurned his own disappointment in his heart, but being targeted by Lawrence actually stimulated his own instinctive self-protection mechanism, which had never appeared before—because his power was weakened, or Because Lawrence is stronger again
The black grand piano was still placed in the center of the stage, and Lawrence was standing beside the piano, looking in his direction with a smile, but the dark gray eyes showed the majesty that could not be rejected from the superior: "Tunard, don't embarrass me. The audience, the things in the theater, let us solve it with music."
Tunard was still very jealous of Lawrence. He couldn't see what His Majesty meant, but he didn't dare to make trouble. He stepped back a little and bowed slightly to Lawrence: "At your command, Your Majesty."
Lawrence was quite satisfied with Tunard's performance, his gray eyes swept across Ye Yingzhi, and smiled slightly: "I said, music matters are solved with music. Tunard, I think this friend doesn't seem to agree. I don't want to be a guest with you, so I have a proposal, let this gentleman come to the stage and play a song for us. If his music can be recognized by the audience, let this gentleman and his lover leave, no one can stop him How about this method?" After that, he looked at Ye Yingzhi playfully and blinked.
Lawrence's ability to observe people's emotions is not bad. Of course, he can see that Emer does not want to reveal his identity here, so he came up with such a method - there is a rare opportunity for Emer to play publicly, he must Gotta give it a try. And what he said just now sounded like he was asking Tunad for advice, but there were also many demons in the front row who noticed that their majesty actually seemed to be seeking the consent of this human being.
Ye Yingzhi reluctantly suppressed the restless, gloomy and sullen feeling in his body.
Reason told him that he should accept this proposal from the demon monarch on the stage. Judging from Aaron's introduction and the demon's series of actions, the ruler of hell really loves art and music from the bottom of his heart. Even human beings with high musical attainments will be treated with courtesy and preferential treatment by him. What he said would definitely not go back easily, and no one would dare to go against it. And it happens that Ye Yingzhi is more confident in his artistic accomplishment.
He stood up from his seat, put Chi Yan on the chair, took off his cloak and put it aside, leaned down and kissed his forehead: "Ayan, wait for me here."
Chi Yan nodded, glanced at the demons around him, swallowed what he wanted to say, only pulled La Yeyingzhi's cloak, looked up at him, whispered "I'm waiting for you", and at the same time He told him to be careful with his eyes.
Ye Yingzhi turned around and nodded gently to the demon monarch on the stage: "I agree with your proposal."
Lawrence smiled contentedly, made a "please" gesture to his cherished piano, and then retreated backstage.
Mona was waiting for him in the backstage. The palace steward looked worriedly at the other hell ruler sitting on the piano bench and said to Lawrence, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty Aimer doesn't seem to know you."
"That guy has always acted very well." Lawrence waved his hand, but he didn't take it to heart, and changed the subject, "Did I act like I was familiar with him?"
"That's not it." Mona shook his head, accepted this statement, and stepped back to stand beside Lawrence and play with him in the stands.
As the most low-key and mysterious of the three rulers of hell, His Majesty Aimer rarely leaves his palace, and has never publicly appeared in other places as the ruler of hell, even when he signed the declaration of joint rule of hell in Oyavis. He did not appear at the time, but sent the demon minister under him as a messenger to sign on his behalf. So many hell demons have never seen the appearance of this majesty.
The reason why Mona was able to recognize Aimer was because he had accompanied Lawrence to the palace in the east of hell to discuss matters related to the establishment of a coalition government in hell. At that time, he had met this reclusive great demon a few times. It was just the few encounters with Aimer's own aura, temperament and way of doing things that left a deep impression on him. However, at that time, he also happened to fail to hear the praise of His Majesty Lawrence as "Heaven falls to hell and destroys the world." Rebirth" of the very shocking sound of His Majesty Aimer.
Ye Yingzhi sat in front of the black piano, put his hands on the keys, closed his eyes, and slowly pressed the first note. The melody is very low and slow at first, with all kinds of tenderness, like a whisper in the ear of a lover, and like a quiet sigh in the dark night, then the rhythm gets faster and stronger, and it seems to be full of love. How to vent, I don't know where to put it.
The whole theater was quiet, and everyone listened to the performance of the humans on stage with bated breath. Mona himself is not good at music, but he has gradually developed some feelings under the influence of Lawrence over the centuries. Lawrence was completely immersed in the music, but Mona still took a moment to think in his heart that His Majesty Aimer really fell in love like this.
Chi Yan stared intently at the figure of her lover on the stage, and couldn't help but have a smile on her lips, and even forgot their current situation.
He and Ye Yingzhi have been together for seven or eight years. Whether it was before or after his illness, Ye Yingzhi would often play the piano and play musical instruments to please him. For him, it was nothing unusual to hear Ye Yingzhi play the piano. . Ye Yingzhi is indeed very talented in this regard. The pieces he plays are all created by him at will. He has always only played it for Chi Yan, and has never shown this talent in front of outsiders; Yan grew up in an orphanage and lacked systematic training in music, so he only knew that Ye Yingzhi was talented but did not fully realize how amazing this talent was. He only knew that the songs Ye Yingzhi played for him were very good. It was very warm, and there was a hint of familiarity, as if he had heard it before, but he really couldn't remember when he heard it, and finally he could only give up exploring.
The music becomes more and more majestic, atmospheric and profound, and then gradually eases down at the climax, becoming calm, calm and restrained. It turns a few notes at the trough, suddenly reaches the peak again, and then rushes to the peak. , stopped abruptly.
Ye Yingzhi pressed his hands on the keys for a long time, then slowly retracted his hands, opened his black eyes again, and looked straight in the direction of his lover.
The audience fell silent for a while.
After a long while, Lawrence stood up and took Mona out from the backstage to applaud Ye Yingzhi. All the audience got up and applauded under his lead. The applause was thunderous for a while, and it lasted for a long time.
Ye Yingzhi left the piano bench, turned to face the demon in front of him, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, our agreement."
"Of course, you can leave now, no one dares to stop you." Lawrence spread his hands and laughed playfully, and then whispered in a very low voice that only the two of them and Moana could hear, " It's rare to come to Oyavis. You are welcome to bring your little human baby to my palace. There are many chefs in my palace who are very good at cooking human food. I rely on them to capture the hearts of many human music masters. But don't Mind you, I have a pure relationship with my musicians."
Ye Yingzhi glanced at Lawrence, nodded, walked off the stage under the watchful eyes of the audience, and walked to Chi Yan's seat.
He bent down, took Chi Yan into his arms with both arms, and said softly, "Let's go."
All the demons' eyes were focused on him and the human being he was holding - Lawrence was still standing on the stage, and now no demon dared to get up and leave.
Ye Yingzhi could feel from the sight of many demons that they did not give up, but because of Lawrence's power, they did not dare to take action for the time being. However, it was impossible for Lawrence to protect them all the way, and it was beyond Ye Yingzhi's expectation that he could promise to let them leave the theater safely.
Potential crises must be cut in the bud.
Thinking like this, Ye Yingzhi lightly smiled and stretched out his right hand, teasingly put it into Chi Yan's mouth, and gently fiddled with his warm and soft tongue. After playing for a while, he took out his hand, but then he leaned down and kissed the human's freshly ravaged lips predatory with a gesture of refusal.
Chi Yan was stunned for a moment, trying to ignore the gazes that fell on them from all directions, still just submissively letting him plunder.
After a while, Ye Yingzhi left him, chuckled again with satisfaction, moved his throat, wiped the water stains from the corner of Chi Yan's mouth with his right thumb, and then continued walking towards the exit with the person in his arms.
On the way, Chi Yan's tender white feet protruded from under the cloak and swayed slightly with Ye Yingzhi's movements. Ye Yingzhi paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to hold his foot and stuffed it back into the cloak.
At the same time, a pair of huge, obscuring bone wings unfolded from his back, casting a deep shadow in the theater; two long and powerful black magic horns also grew on his head, showing nobility. .
It was clearly a symbol of a powerful high-ranking demon.
Amid the exclamations of the demons in the audience, Ye Yingzhi glanced back casually, and his indifferent, frozen gaze swept over all the ill-intentioned eyes, and bowed his head again to Lawrence who was on the stage. Take the human and leave.
Lawrence watched Ye Yingzhi walk out of the theater with the human in his arms, and then returned to the backstage with Mona. Lawrence murmured while wiping his face: "Sir, do you think Emer's last look at me is a bit strange? Why did he show his horns and wings at the end?"
"Your Majesty Aimer is demonstrating." Mona handed him a clean handkerchief, hesitated, and answered the first question, "Your Majesty, I don't think you need to explain your relationship with human musicians, so It's like trying to cover up."
Lawrence turned to look at him.
Mona covered his mouth and coughed and decided to bring up the topic: "... His Majesty Aimer must have coveted your cook at that time, and wanted to take back the humans who please him."
