C221 zither music as a confidant (1/2)

When Mu Ru Yue heard this, she felt guilty. She really wanted to do this. However, this was no different from hiding one's identity. Instead of this, it would be better to just cut the mess. There shouldn't have been any relationship between her and Feng Qing in the first place.

”You appeared in the place I didn't want you to appear in. This... Is that also your answer? ” Feng Qing looked at Mu Ru Yue and asked calmly.

Mu Ru Yue nodded without any hesitation. ”Yes.”

”In that case, after leaving this place, you and I have nothing to do with each other.” Feng Qing stood up and said to Mu Ru Yue. Mu Ru Yue, who was already prepared to be scolded by Feng Qing, was stupefied when she heard this.

”You … ”Not angry?”

”So what if I am angry? I don't want to kill you, and I don't want to see you again. ” Feng Qing's attitude was indifferent, just like when they first met. It was cold, detached, and inhumane, as if he didn't care about the world. If others were to see it, they would feel ashamed of their inferiority.

”No matter what, thank you very much.” Mu Ru Yue turned around and left as she spoke.

”Wait.” Feng Qing called for Mu Ru Yue.

”Is Your Highness still busy?” Mu Ru Yue asked curiously. Then, Feng Qing picked up the guqin and passed it to Mu Ru Yue, saying, ”I heard that your melody … It was very nice. ”Can you and I say goodbye after you play that song?”

Just for this?

Mu Ru Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Compared to playing the zither for those people on the stage, she was more willing to play with Feng Qing. Although they could no longer be close friends, this person would not disappoint her.

As he thought about this, Mu Ru Yue lifted his skirt and sat on the ground. He placed the zither on his knee and began to play. The zither music suddenly caught off guard and resounded in his ears. Feng Qing was stunned for a moment. Then, it was as if he had fallen into the concept of a zither song.

After an unknown period of time, Feng Qing picked up the short flute that he always carried with his, but rarely took it out and started to play with it. The instant Mu Ru Yue heard the harmony, she was also shocked. This song definitely wasn't from this era. Feng Qing only listened to her melody before echoing it!

The man's tone of harmony was without any hint of aggression, just like his person. It was ethereal and indifferent. Feng Qing looked at the girl sitting in front of her. For the first time, he felt that time passed so quickly. If it was possible, he could only hope that the time in the Peach Blossom Dock was limitless.

She would not leave, so she was not the Seventh Princess. As for him … It was laughable that they had missed out on the person they wanted the most from the very beginning.

However, time was exactly like this. It would not stop for a single minute because of a person's humble request, nor would it stop for a single second because of a person's expectation. After the song ended, the sound of the zither came to an abrupt halt. Mu Ru Yue stood up, gave Feng Qing a standard monarch's official salute, then turned around and left.

Feng Qing looked at Mu Ru Yue's back for a long time without replying, but didn't stop her.

”Your Highness …” You let her go just like that? ” Tao Er brought the tea tray and walked out from the main hall of the Peach Blossom Dock. Seeing that there was only Feng Qing left, she said in surprise. Feng Qing calmly looked at Tao Er and said, ”Since it was a mistake, why continue?”

”Your majesty is wise.” After saying that, Tao Er placed the tea tray on the side of the wooden table.

”How many people in the Eastern Palace know about this?” Feng Qing's tone was light, seemingly casual. However, the moment he said those words, Tao Er's expression changed. Sure enough, it did not flare up at the beginning, he just did not understand!

As she was thinking, Tao Er quickly kneeled on the ground. ”Your Highness, please calm your anger …” It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that I was afraid that I would make His Highness angry. But later on, I didn't know that Your Highness was doing it for this person. ” Doll lowered her head and explained.

”You knew it from the beginning, right?” Feng Qing lowered his head and looked at Tao Er, who did not seem to have anything to do with his. There was not a single emotion in his phoenix eyes. Even the people around him hid the truth and didn't dare to tell him.
