When Man Yao woke up, it was already the evening of the second day. Living in a strange place, the room is simply furnished, but everything in the room is exquisite and exquisite, even an inconspicuous blue and white porcelain vase on the corner of the table is of great value.
The surroundings were very quiet, she vaguely remembered that in a daze, someone fed her medicine, and then she fell asleep until this time. I touched my forehead with my hand, the heat has subsided, and my body is not so uncomfortable, it seems that it is the effect of the bowl of medicine. The man in the carriage must have invited a doctor for her! But, why hasn't her internal strength recovered yet
Getting up and going down to the ground, she slowly walked out of the house. The yard outside is huge, but there is no one in sight. She was slightly puzzled, and suddenly there was a sound of the piano, which was light and pleasant to the ear, and she followed the sound.
At the end of the Yangchang stone road is a green bamboo forest. There is an open space in the middle of the forest. There are three stone steps up. The clean ground is as smooth as jade. A man sits cross-legged casually, with his back to her. Direction, the sound of the piano flowing from his fingertips. The afterglow of the setting sun pours over the entire bamboo forest. The soft orange light, accompanied by the faint bamboo fragrance brought by the breeze, and the distant and clear but implying vicissitudes of life, make people intoxicated and feel a little tranced.
"You're awake!" The man finished the song, put his hands flat on the strings, and looked back at her with gentle eyes, as if greeting an acquaintance, friendly and casual.
The eyebrows are like swords, the eyes are bright like stars, the red lips are thin, and the facial features are well-defined. Really handsome and extraordinary, it is unforgettable at first sight. However, this should be a stern look, but with a smile, it gives people a sense of elegance and warmth. Manyao was stunned for a moment, is this the man who rescued her last night? "Last night, was the young master feeding me the medicine?"
The man smiled and nodded slightly. Manyao said sincerely: "Thank you!" Since she could remember, her father had asked her to be independent. Whenever she fell ill, the driver would drive her to the hospital, and she was the only one who had to deal with the rest. No one... had ever handed her a glass of water while she was taking medicine, never before! In the three years since I came to this world, apart from the mild headache that fell from my childhood once a month, this is an illness.
Looking at the man's handsome face, she suddenly felt a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before, but she couldn't tell.
The man smiled and said, "It's nothing more than a little effort. Is the girl's body better?"
Manyao walked forward, sat down in the same posture opposite the man, and said with a slight smile: "It's nothing serious, Mr. Lao, please take care of me. Please forgive me for disturbing you!"
The man smiled elegantly, and said: "I see that the girl is unconscious and brought her here without authorization. Girl, don't blame me for making my own opinion."
Man Yao chuckled and shook his head, and said, "My lord, you have good intentions, how can I be so ignorant!"
The man looked at the woman dressed in men's clothing, her beautiful eyes were clear, her wisdom was hidden, her elegant and refined temperament had an indescribably charming charm, which could be described as the ultimate beauty. With clear eyes, he said slowly: "Since that's the case, you and I don't need to talk about these scenes, it seems strange and vulgar." Man Yao nodded with a smile, and he said: "I don't know what to call the girl?"
Manyao was stunned, she had many names, but none of them seemed suitable for her to say. Seeing her pause slightly, the man smiled meaninglessly and said, "If there is any inconvenience, you don't have to force it. I don't know Miss, can you play the piano?"
This person is very good at observing words and expressions, and is considerate. He changed the subject when she hesitated for a moment, and easily avoided embarrassing situations. Man Yao smiled and said: "I know a little bit, but I dare not use an ax in front of you."
It was because the former owner of this body was proficient in playing the piano, so it was unavoidable that her flaws were exposed. She had practiced the piano in secret, but she was so familiar with playing the piano, as if she knew it herself. The reason why she bothered to ask Chen Yu to play the piano in the tea garden was to borrow her name, and she herself did not want to play the piano to entertain the guests. Recalling the piano sound she heard just now, she thought for a while, and said: "However, I think the piece that the young master played just now sounds distant and light, but in fact... the joy is on the surface, and the vicissitudes are engraved on the bone!"
The man was startled, his starry eyes were shining, he stared at her, and said with admiration: "I can hear the vicissitudes behind the melodiousness of this song, which shows that the girl is good at playing the piano. Created before."
He seems to be around twenty years old, and he was only thirteen or fourteen seven years ago. It is really not easy to create such beautiful and deep music. Man Yao couldn't help sighing: "Master Yuqin's high attainments are really admirable! It's just...how can you have such a profound sense of vicissitudes at the age of your master seven years ago?"
The gentle smile on the corner of the man's mouth froze slightly, Man Yao suddenly felt a slip of the tongue, and immediately smiled and said: "I'm just asking casually, you don't need to answer." She looked up at the darkening sky, stood up, and said with cupped hands: "This time I am grateful for the help of the young master! If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely reward you generously. It is getting late today, and I should say goodbye."
The man also stood up, his face still gentle, and said: "The girl is in a coma, and she hasn't eaten for a day. I have ordered someone to prepare food for the girl, why don't you go after eating it?"
Manyao declined and said, "My lord, I appreciate your kindness, but I still have important things to do, so don't let this go today. There will be a later date!"
The man chuckled and shook his head, and said: "Since that's the case, it's inconvenient for me to force you to stay. This is the Eastern Suburb Inn, and it's still some distance away from the bustling downtown area. I'll order someone to prepare a carriage for you."
She thought this was the man's mansion, but unexpectedly it was an inn! It shouldn't be just an ordinary inn, otherwise how could there be such a spacious and elegant garden and such exquisite and elegant rooms? Manyao smiled and said goodbye, and didn't ask the man's name, she believed that he would take the initiative to tell him if it was convenient. Looking at the direction where the carriage disappeared, the man smiled softly and said, "Sure enough, she is a transparent woman. We... will meet again soon!"
Manyao got out of the car when she arrived in Dongcheng District, after thinking about it, she decided to go to the tea garden first. She didn't return all night, Ling'er and Xiao Sha saw the body in the tea garden today, they would definitely worry about her and search everywhere. She hired an ordinary carriage and came to Yuanyue Tea Garden. As soon as she got out of the carriage, dozens of government guards suddenly appeared on the quiet bank of Tianshui Lake and surrounded her. The leader of the guards took a few steps forward, looked at her back and forth with amazed eyes, and finally nodded and said: "He is so beautiful, he should be him, Mr. Liyue, the owner of Yuanyue Tea Garden! Grab him!"
Man Yao was startled, but his expression was still calm, and he asked, "My lord, what did you do?"
The commander of the guards looked cold and stern: "Last night, King Li was assassinated in the Longyue Tea Garden. His Majesty Longyan was furious. He ordered the Ministry of Punishment to investigate the matter thoroughly. Anyone involved will be arrested and tortured. Take him away!"
