"Mother, Mother!"
Di Yu, who had just fallen into a light sleep, frowned, his face full of struggle and pain.
“No, no!”
Di Yu, who was in a nightmare, suddenly sat up from the bed, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
He dreamed of his mother again. He dreamed that his mother died tragically at the hands of a group of executioners, and was still calling his name before she died.
Di Yu, who was awakened, took a deep breath and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
"Someone come."
He called out in a deep voice, but no one came.
Only then did he remember that he had ordered that no one was allowed to follow him to the piano room or approach it.
Within the huge imperial palace, this is the last pure land in his heart.
Emperor Yu lay back on the couch, folding his hands behind his head.
The bottomless pupils flickered slightly under the reflection of the night moon, causing faint ripples.
Before the morning court session, Emperor Yu, awakened by a nightmare, closed his eyes again.
Crunch——
Just as Di Yu closed his eyes, the door of the piano room opened.
The rippling peach blossom eyes slowly opened, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across them.
Anyone who breaks into the piano room without permission will die!
Emperor Yu was just about to get up to see who was so bold as to break into the piano room without his permission when the door was closed.
"What the hell, Du Youqin?!"
A clear and shocked voice came from the piano room into the inner room. Di Yu narrowed his eyes and stopped getting out of bed.
How could you recognize Duyouqin?
Anyone who understands the zither has heard of the great name of the Duyouqin. Many zither players have spent their entire lives trying to find the Duyouqin.
However, the Duyouqin had disappeared from the martial arts world for a long time, and the body of the qin was damaged. Even if it was placed in front of everyone, they would probably just regard it as a broken qin of inferior quality, and would not recognize that it was the Duyou that everyone had been looking for.
Emperor Yu's mother, Concubine You, loved the zither, and Emperor Yu had promised her that he would find the Duyouzither and give it to her.
But before he could find the Duyouqin, Concubine Hui passed away.
Later, the whereabouts of Du Youqin were finally discovered. The person who wanted to give it to her had already left, and this piano room became Du Youqin's final resting place.
I didn't expect that today not only did someone disobey the order and step into the piano room, but also recognized Du Youqin.
Jiang Jingyu took a quick look around the piano room in the moonlight and recognized Duyouqin at a glance.
She walked to the table where Du Youqin was placed in shock, bent down and took a closer look.
After seeing the words "Duyou" engraved on the corner of the inconspicuous zither body, Jiang Jingyu sighed softly: "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that the Duyou zither that everyone fought for so hard would be here!"
Jiang Jingyu sighed again and couldn't wait to sit in front of the piano.
The white fingers fell on the strings.
bite--
A crisp sound came from Jiang Jingyu's fingertips.
"It's worthy of being one of the ten famous harps. Even the sound is much richer than other harps."
Jiang Jingyu continued to pluck the strings a few times to listen to the color, and then waved her fingertips to play.
Jiang Jingyu casually played a song that she had learned from her teacher.
Di Yu's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and he closed his eyes and listened carefully.
The sound of Jiang Jingyu's piano sometimes sounds like the chirping of hundreds of birds, and sometimes like the galloping of thousands of horses. A quiet spring flows out from the mountain stream and merges into a deep jade-like pool. Layers of tiny ripples are rippling in the pool, and a golden moon is reflected in the water.
After the song ended, Emperor Yu, who always had trouble sleeping, fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Jingyu placed her hands on the strings and curled her lips. Fortunately, she had not forgotten the skills she had learned that year. Tomorrow's selection of concubines was done.
After practicing his technique, Jiang Jingyu glanced at the sky outside the window. There was still some time before the selection of beauties, so it should be enough time to go back and change clothes.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jingyu stood up, pushed the stool under the table, and quietly left the piano room.
The next day.
Eunuch Su and his men were waiting outside the piano room early in the morning for Emperor Yu to summon them.
It was almost dawn, but there was still no movement in the piano room.
Eunuch Su glanced towards the piano room, and after hesitating for a long time, he came to the door of the piano room.
"Your Majesty, it's the morning hour, time to go to court."
There was no sound coming from the piano room.
Eunuch Su's heart sank. Could something have happened to His Majesty?
Thinking of this possibility, Eunuch Su no longer cared about the decree that Emperor Yu had issued and simply pushed the door open and walked in.
Eunuch Su walked into the piano room without being summoned and went straight to the inner room. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Emperor Yu lying on the couch.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
Eunuch Su bent down and called out twice in front of the couch.
Di Yu on the couch frowned and slowly opened his eyes.
"What time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it's almost dawn."
Emperor Yu raised his hand and pinched his brow, then stood up from the couch: "It's already the morning hour? I've slept for so long."
Seeing that Emperor Yu looked well today, Eunuch Su smiled and said, "Your Majesty has been toiling all day, so you must be very tired. That's why you slept a little longer. I see that Your Majesty looks well today. Did Your Majesty rest well last night?"
"Um."
Di Yu uttered a word calmly from his throat.
This was the most comfortable and relaxing sleep he had ever had since his mother passed away.
Eunuch Su asked at the right moment, "Your Majesty, the palace servants who are here to assist you in changing clothes are already waiting outside the door. Can you please let them in?"
"Come in."
"yes."
Eunuch Su bowed slightly, left the inner room, and called the palace maid outside in.
The palace servants quickly helped Emperor Yu wash and change his clothes, and after putting the crown on him, they consciously stepped aside.
Emperor Yu waved his sleeves and walked out of the inner room. When he reached the Duyouqin, he paused slightly and lowered his eyes to look at the Duyouqin beside him.
The piano music last night... was simply wonderful.
