Song Hanchuan turned his head and whispered something to Qingyun. Then he saw Qingyun bow slightly, salute him, and then leave.
After a while, he came back with a few servants.
The servants following him were carrying a guqin, and a maid was holding a jade flute that was crystal clear on a tray.
Further back, there was a series of maids carrying white jade and glass incense burners, a dozen exquisite and small cakes, and a dozen glass cups filled with various freshly squeezed juices.
It seems that everything was prepared according to Liu Zhiyi's preferences.
The servant placed the zither in place and lighted the incense burner with gentle steps. For a moment, wisps of light fragrance drifted from the pear-colored tent, filling the air.
Qingyun took out the jade flute and presented it to Song Hanchuan with both hands.
Song Hanchuan reached out to take it, and raised his eyebrows at Liu Zhiyi with a smile.
Liu Zhiyi's eyes lit up, "You can also play the flute?"
Song Hanchuan nodded without comment.
"I am not talented. I only know a little bit, not half as much as you. Therefore, I dare not show off. I only dare to show off in front of my wife. I hope my wife will not despise me."
Liu Zhiyi pursed her lips and smiled.
"So...what kind of music do you like?"
Song Hanchuan pursed his lips, opened his thin lips slightly, and said lightly, "Pieces of lovesickness - to whom are they given."
Finally, he smiled gently and added, "I was also present at the palace banquet that day."
Liu Zhiyi was stunned.
She had no idea that there was something like this between them. No wonder when they first met at the alley, his eyes were full of light when he looked at her.
"good."
Song Hanchuan chuckled, "Madam, please."
Liu Zhiyi smiled back at him and sat down in front of the piano. The maid Yun'er saw that the sun was a little dazzling, and her eyes suddenly turned. She found a piece of gauze and gently draped it over Liu Zhiyi's head.
Liu Zhiyi slowly plucked the strings a few times, adjusting the sound, and soon found her feel. Then, the familiar melody slowly flowed from her fingertips.
It was their first time working together, but they cooperated perfectly and worked in perfect harmony. The maids all had stars in their eyes and envy on their faces.
After the song, it seemed as if they were the only ones left in the world. They withdrew their hands reluctantly, and when they looked up, their eyes were burning and their brows were filled with deep affection.
At this time, the housekeeper came forward and said that the palace had sent precious medicinal herbs, and asked Song Hanchuan how to deal with these herbs?
Song Hanchuan pursed his lips and curled the corners of his lips, looking at Liu Zhiyi, and lightly opened his thin lips.
"Just ask Madam about these matters. From now on, all matters in the mansion will be decided by Madam."
Liu Zhiyi blushed slightly as she took the housekeeper downstairs to deal with the matter. After everyone left, the only people left in the wisteria forest were Song Hanchuan in the wheelchair and Qingyun beside him.
At this time, a tall dark figure walked in from outside the archway, came in front of Song Hanchuan, and stared at Song Hanchuan condescendingly.
His face was extremely cold, with undercurrents surging in his eyes. His fists in his sleeves were clenched tightly, his knuckles were slightly white, and his whole arms were trembling slightly.
"Song Hanchuan, you despicable villain, you did it on purpose, didn't you? You deliberately let me see the two of you being so harmonious so that I would give up. You really have deep thoughts."
"Let me tell you, Xiaoyi doesn't like people with deep scheming minds, and she hates it even more when others deceive her or scheme against her. Your actions just now have touched upon her taboos."
"Tell me, if I tell her all this, do you think she will still be as deeply in love with you as she is now?"
Pei Yunchu sat opposite Song Hanchuan with a swagger, his legs wide open, his posture uninhibited, his eyes full of pride, and he spoke with great confidence.
The corners of Song Hanchuan's lips gradually straightened, the warmth in his eyes gradually faded, and the look he gave Pei Yunchu was filled with murderous intent.
He snorted lightly, then took a deep breath and said in a light tone,
"I, remembering your loyalty to the emperor and your love for the country, did not want to kill you all. However, I did not expect you to rush to seek death. If that is the case, then you cannot blame me."
Pei Yunchu also snorted coldly.
"Just you, hahahaha."
"He's just a pedantic villain who only knows how to plot and scheme. He climbed to the position of Prime Minister by relying on his limited knowledge and his skillful flattery."
"Unlike my Marquisate, which was founded through military merit and has been a family of generals for generations, we have always relied solely on strength."
"Besides, A'yan and I have a life-long friendship. You think you can manipulate the power and harm the entire Pei family? It's really a big joke."
"Then why don't you try it?"
"I'll fight you to the end. Do you really think I'm afraid of you? It's still uncertain who will win."
The two men's eyes met in mid-air, and for a moment, the situation was tense and sparks flew everywhere.
Just at this moment, the woman's clear voice came from behind him, "Song Hanchuan, it's getting late, it's time to go back and change the medicine."
Just as he turned the corner, he saw Pei Yunchu sitting opposite Song Hanchuan with an arrogant look on his face.
His pupils suddenly dilated and he ran over quickly, opening his arms like a hen to protect Song Hanchuan.
My chest heaved violently due to tension.
"Why are you here? Come, come and protect your master."
Pei Yunchu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Qingyun had disappeared from Song Hanchuan's side since he didn't know when. Song Hanchuan, who had been sitting upright, was now slumped in a wheelchair, with his crown askew and his hair disheveled.
His chest and the hem of his robe were a little wrinkled, and he was breathing heavily. He lay beside the wheelchair, looking weak and unable to take care of himself, and as if he had been badly bullied.
Her wet eyes looked at Liu Zhiyi eagerly, but she bit her lips and said nothing, with an expression of forbearance.
Pei Yunchu almost flew into a rage.
This hypocrite, scheming man, has so many twists and turns in his mind, just like an old sow wearing a bra, one set after another, which really makes him angry.
How could there be such a shameless man in this world? He was absolutely shameless, the most shameless of all.
Pei Yunchu had a bad temper and couldn't stand this kind of anger. He immediately got angry and swung his fist as big as a sandbag at Song Hanchuan.
But before his hand could touch the other person's clothes, it was blocked by Liu Zhiyi.
In the end, it turned into a fight between him and Liu Zhiyi. Pei Yunchu was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Xiaoyi, listen to my explanation. All of this was planned by this hypocritical man. He heard that I came to your house to ask for an audience, so he deliberately had someone stop me and prevented me from seeing you."
"He took the opportunity to invite you to play with him, using the sounds of the zither and flute to lure me over, deliberately pretending to be affectionate in front of me. His goal was to provoke me and make me fight so that you would hate me. You must not fall for his tricks, Xiaoyi."
Liu Zhiyi paused his sword-wielding hand, withdrew it lightly, and said "oh".
Seeing this, Song Hanchuan's body stiffened, and Pei Yunchu also stood there in a daze.
"Xiaoyi, what did you mean by 'oh' just now?"
Could it be...
Liu Zhiyi glanced at the pale-faced Song Hanchuan, then turned his gaze to Pei Yunchu.
