Chapter 20 Every day it watches how I and the Queen lie in bed together and talk at night



The dim room was shrouded in a layer of eerie fog.

The surrounding walls were covered with cracks, looking hideous and terrifying, as if the house would collapse in the next second.

This way all traces will be covered up and no one will know what happened here.

There was a bamboo mat rolled up on the ground, with a few small insects crawling on it, some of which had more than four legs.

It makes people's scalp tingle.

The man curled up in the corner was wearing a single white garment, but although it was white, there was no trace of white left.

Red, gray, and black are all interwoven and blended on it.

Suddenly, there was a sound of a door opening and a beam of light shone into the room.

The man in the corner moved slightly. He could no longer see anything and could only listen with his ears.

He plays the piano and often deals with sounds.

In order to play better music, he would sometimes sit in a deserted valley for a whole day, listening to the most beautiful sounds of nature.

His hearing is much better than that of ordinary people.

When he heard the chirping of cicadas and birds outside, he was even a little glad that Li Xuanyi had cut off his eyes instead of his ears.

He could still hear her voice.

very nice.

Li Xuanyi glanced around the room and fixed his gaze on the man in the corner.

He said at the door: "It's really bad, don't you think?"

The musician had heard this voice before. After his eyes were gouged out, the first voice he heard was from this man.

The man said hoarsely, "Compared to His Majesty the Emperor, I'm indeed in dire straits."

"You heard it that day, didn't you? Was it nice?"

On their wedding night, he specially brought someone to the door of their wedding room.

He sat on the ground leaning against a large flower pot all night.

The man didn't answer his question, but just said something.

"She doesn't like being in the palace."

Li Xuanyi frowned. He didn't like what he heard.

The shabby luthier thought he knew her very well.

Obviously, the person who knows her best should be him, Li Xuanyi.

When the two of them met for the first time, you didn't even know where to blow bubbles.

"You are not her, how do you know that she doesn't like staying in the palace, staying by my side?"

"If I wasn't afraid of scaring my queen, your eyes would already be on my bed."

"Every day it will watch how the Queen and I lie in each other's arms and talk beside each other at night."

Li Xuanyi didn't just say that he wanted to take revenge on the zither player. Every time he looked at Su Yumo's peaceful sleeping face, he really thought about it.

The more I think about it, the more exciting it becomes.

"She likes the outside world. If you love her, let her go."

"She shouldn't be trapped..."

"Shut up." Li Xuanyi interrupted him.

He threw a white jade bracelet that was broken into pieces in front of the musician.

"Take your broken bracelet back. She doesn't want your rags."

"Also, I'm telling you in advance that I no longer have any interest in torturing you. Just wait for your final death."

Although he enjoyed watching the musicians struggling to survive, only the dead were the most reliable.

After saying that, he turned and left, and the man in red beside him closed the door.

The room returned to its original darkness.

The musician moved his body vigorously, lying on the ground and groping for the direction of the bracelet with his hands.

First he touched a fragment and realized that his bracelet was broken into pieces.

He tore off a small piece of cloth from his pants, placed it on the ground, and carefully picked up the fragments on the ground.

Some of them were so broken that they could not be picked up by hand, so the musician gave up on those that could not be picked up.

It took a long time to wrap the broken bracelet in the cloth.

There is no place left on my body to put it, but if I put it on the ground, I don’t know which insect will take it away.

He had no choice but to hold the cloth in his palm, which seemed to still retain her warmth.

How did the two people meet?

He was just a traveling musician, playing the zither wherever he went, feeling very free.

That day he saw an imperial edict saying that a person who was good at playing the piano was needed to attend the banquet in the palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday.

The key point is that the remuneration is generous.

He took down the imperial edict.

After seeing the hazy drizzle in the south, he prepared to travel to the north.

He needed some money, and after getting it, he would go and see the customs and culture of the north.

In the end, he did not receive any reward and became a prince consort inexplicably.

He had never seen Princess Cheng Yu before, and the banquet was the first time he saw her.

She is very beautiful, with big eyes and pink lips, and there is no trace of makeup on her face.

Her voice was bright and sweet, like the water gushing out of a spring of icy water melting in spring.

In front of so many people, she said that she fell in love with him and wanted to marry him and stay with him forever.

He had just finished playing a piece of music and was about to get up to collect his payment.

Frightened by these words, he sat back down.

What's going on? No one told him that he could play the piano and marry a princess.

The girl's back was thin and slender, with her waist-length black hair fluttering slightly. He saw the powerful strength contained in her body.

In order to show his non-existent grace in front of his ministers, the emperor asked for his opinion.

The girl said a lot of things, but he only heard that one sentence.

"I am deeply attracted to him, and I only wish to stay with him forever, never to be separated."

He could have politely declined, or even said that he already had a family and it was not appropriate for him to marry the princess.

After all, the princes from all over the country were present at the time, and the emperor could not force him to marry the princess.

Eventually this will become a story that appears in a storybook and is circulated among children for a while.
