Chapter 35: Dogs Relying on the Power of Others



Every time Su Qianji looked at her like this, she felt as if her neck was in danger and felt cold.

What can I do? Just give in.

"Actually, I understood some of it, but I didn't dare to show off in front of Master Su and the Crown Prince, so I said I didn't understand."

This time, Zhao Ce also spoke up: "Just tell me. If you say something wrong, I won't blame you, and of course, Master Su won't blame you either."

——What I care about is whether you blame me or not? What I care about is whether Jiang Shu, this mad dog, will bite me.

Jiang Yao is now in a difficult situation. She has been trying not to cause trouble or avoid it, but as long as she opens her mouth, she will offend Jiang Shu.

——How about I just say that she plays very well, very beautifully, and terrifically?

Su Qianji leisurely picked up the teacup and slowly brought it to his lips. Before he drank it, he suddenly said, "If you think it's good, you have to tell me what's good about it."

Jiang Yao: "..." Is this guy the worm in her stomach? Her little plan was shattered before she could even finish it.

If you want to say something good about her, she can't say a single word because she doesn't know how to play the piano, but if you want to say something bad about her, she is a professional in the hypnosis industry.

"Big sister, this piano..." He dragged out the last note, paused, and then said embarrassedly: "It's terrible."

Jiang Shu stood up suddenly, her face filled with shame and anger: "What did you say?"

She had expected Jiang Yao to go against her and deliberately say it was bad, but it was really unexpected that he would directly say it was terrible.

Zhao Ce was also stunned. This was too direct. If Jiang Yao hadn't looked completely without any smugness or gloating, he would have thought that Jiang Yao was deliberately targeting Jiang Shu.

But now he became interested in what Jiang Yao called "very bad".

"I wonder why Second Miss Jiang thinks First Miss Jiang's piano playing is terrible?"

"Prince, she is clearly targeting me. You must make the decision for me."

Jiang Yao rolled his eyes to the sky: You must be dreaming if you want Zhao Ce to make the decision for you in front of the real boss. Zhao Ce will not pay any attention to you.

As if confirming Jiang Yao's inner voice, Zhao Ce turned his head to look at Su Qianji and asked softly, "What do you think, Qianji?"

Su Qianji had a cold look on his face. Seeing that the expression on the face of someone next to him became more and more serious, he frowned and his face became gloomy.

After a long while, he asked, "Tell me where it's rotten."

"When I say bad, I don't mean that Big Sister's piano skills are bad, but that Big Sister played this piece very badly."

Jiang Shu bit her lip, tears falling from her eyes in grievance. "If you want to pick on me, just say it directly. I've been practicing this piece all day and all night. Ever since Master Langqi gave me the sheet music, I haven't stopped practicing. I haven't made any mistakes in the tune."

Zhao Ce frowned slightly. He hated to see girls cry. He looked at Jiang Yao and said, "Second Miss Jiang, the song of the eldest Miss Jiang is indeed very smooth."

It was Su Qianji who insisted that she talk about this matter in detail. She didn't want to say much, but Zhao Ce's attitude was obviously questioning her professionalism, which she couldn't tolerate.

The girl's delicate brows were rarely tinged with seriousness. "This piece of music is indeed very smooth, but the problem is that it's too smooth. For those who practice the piano, the importance of the state of mind is far more important than the mastery of the piano. Big sister, you are so anxious to master this piece of music, not the artistic conception of the piece."

"Is this a soothing song?" Zhao Ce's face was full of surprise. If it were an ordinary song, it would indeed be good, but as a soothing song, it was far from good.

"Oh, my second sister has probably never even touched a zither in her life, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly." Jiang Shu was very disdainful of Jiang Yao's judgment. She walked towards Zhao Ce and knelt down directly: "Prince, my second sister and I have always been at odds. She has bullied me since she was a child, and she has bullied my third and fourth sisters. She is notorious for being unreasonable, domineering and barbaric at home."

Oh, this feeling of grievance, Jiang Yao won’t buy it.

"Eldest sister said that if I bully you, I will also bully the third and fourth sisters. I am so powerful that I can bully anyone, big or small."

"You've always been unreasonable."

"Besides, my eldest sister is older than me and yet I bully her. Don't you think you're too easy to bully?"

"You're making a false argument."

Jiang Shu was choked by these words and became increasingly angry. Her voice became a little sharper, but she didn't sound like someone who was being bullied at all.

On the contrary, Jiang Yao spoke in a calm tone and had a calm expression, looking more like someone who had been bullied but didn't care.

Jiang Yao raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "I've only seen children complain to others after fighting. Seeing Big Sister like this just now, I almost thought you were still breastfeeding."

"puff!"

Zhao Ce couldn't help but burst out laughing, but then quickly suppressed his laughter and pretended to keep a straight face: "Second Miss Jiang, you're going too far by saying that."

Jiang Shu's face turned green, and she stood up and rushed towards Jiang Yao without caring about anything.

"Jiang Yao, I will kill you."

Jiang Yao shrank his neck and hid directly behind the wheelchair. At this time, he had to hold Su Qianji's thigh tightly.

Su Qianji's eyes darkened and he slowly raised his chin.

Jiang Shu, who rushed forward, only felt a sharp gaze falling on her. Her anger was extinguished instantly, and she immediately felt a chill from the feet.

Only then did she realize that not only Su Qianji was here, but Zhao Ce was also there, and she had just been so angry at Jiang Yao that she lost control.

"Master Su, I'm sorry. I was reckless." After saying this, he didn't forget to bring Jiang Yao into the conversation: "But this is not my fault. You saw it too. It was Jiang Yao who insulted me with her careless words."

Jiang Yao stood behind Su Qianji and stuck out his tongue at her with a helpless look on his face.

——She is complaining again and still refuses to admit that she has not been weaned.

Su Qianji let out a deep breath, rubbed his swollen eyebrows, and thought for a while before he remembered that he was looking for the saint just to have a good rest.

But now it is even more chaotic than when there was no saint.

Su Qianji couldn't help but ask himself what he was trying to achieve.

When he looked up again, his eyes were filled with impatience: "So? How do you want me to punish her?"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Shu's heart instantly turned cold.

Su Qianji said this not because he really wanted her to decide how to punish Jiang Yao, but because his tone showed that he was extremely impatient.

"Jiang Shu wouldn't dare."

Jiang Shu quickly knelt down.

"Ahem." Zhao Ce coughed twice and suppressed a smile: "Alright, stop arguing. I'm here today, and I'll handle this justice for you."

After he said that, Su Qianji didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.

"Miss Jiang's piano skills are beyond reproach. They are indeed superb. However, this piece is indeed, as Miss Jiang II said, far from perfect."

Of course, Zhao Ce didn't say it was bad, for fear that Jiang Shu would cry again.

"Miss Jiang still needs to practice more."

Fearing that the situation would worsen, Zhao Ce stood up and took the initiative to say, "It's getting late today. I have to go back to the East Palace to deal with some matters. Miss Jiang should also go back and practice the piano well."

Jiang Shu was unwilling to accept it, but since these words came from Zhao Ce's mouth, she didn't dare to refute them anymore, but she blamed all the mistakes on Jiang Yao.

Before leaving, he did not forget to look at her deeply.

This round was won beautifully. Jiang Yao smiled and didn't forget to show off to Su Qianji: "Master Su, don't you think she has no self-awareness?"

Su Qianji glanced over and saw only cunning in the fox's eyes.

"She has no self-awareness." After a pause, he asked, "Do you know what this is called?"

"What?"

"A dog relies on the power of its master."

The man left four words in an unclear mood and then left in his wheelchair.

Jiang Yao was startled for a moment, then realized she was being scolded. Instead of getting angry, she raised her chin proudly: "Even if it's a dog, it's the most expensive Samoyed."
