Qingluo Jinghe

Chapter 158

"Well..."

Back from the street that day, Bai Shuangran, the girl from the Bai family, begged the Holy Majesty to go back to the south of the Yangtze River.

The emperor asked the reason, but it turned out that it was because he wanted to find his master.The master who taught Baishuang the art of dyeing the qin and chopping the zither was not young, but he fell ill recently and was afraid of losing his skills, so he planned to hand over all the skills to Baishuang as soon as possible.

For the sake of her daughter, and also to thank Bai Shuangran for saving her daughter due to the skill of the qin master, Li Jing planned to invite the qin master to Jingzhao City to find a not-so-low status in Tai Chi Palace and enjoy his salary.

Unexpectedly, the person sent was rejected by the luthier, and what he said was well-founded: the climate in Jingzhao City is different from ours, especially in winter, it is very dry.

"Forget it, it's a good inheritance after all, let's ask Miss Bai to go back."

In the previous dynasty, some self-respecting scholars looked down on these witch doctors and musicians, but Li Jing always respected anyone who lived by his own ability, and the craftsmanship of this luthier also made Li Jing admire.

"This craftsmanship really cannot be thrown away easily. Since the girl from the Bai family has inherited this inheritance, she cannot easily abandon this responsibility."

Calling Bai Shuangran into the hall, Li Jing told him what he had said, and then told him not to let down this inheritance.

At this time, it was Bai Shuangran who was in trouble. At that time, I heard that Master had suffered from a cold, and I was afraid that Master would not be able to afford such an illness, so he acted impulsively. Now thinking of Her Royal Highness Princess Taiyuan, I felt a little sorry for this caring heart. Monarch...

"Your Majesty, I still have a junior junior sister. Even if I don't go back, someone will inherit the mantle of the master."

Bai Shuangran said with a long bow: "I'd better stay by the princess' side."

When it comes to his own daughter, the emperor is also selfish. It took a lot of struggle to make up his mind to let Bai Shuangran go.

But now that he has made plans, there is absolutely no possibility of changing his mind, "Master is also master and father, even if you abandon the aspect of inheritance, your master is sick, and you should take care of it."

"Lan'er, you can rest assured. Whether it's the so-called lucky star or the ups and downs, it's all destined." Li Jing stood up with a smile, and helped Bai Shuangran, who was bowing in salute, up, "If Lan'er If anything goes wrong, it will be irresponsible for me as a father."

"Go ahead. When the time comes, pass on your master's craftsmanship. When I step down, whether it's the musicians in the palace or the piano skills of my nephew in the next generation, I still count on you to teach me."

The meaning of Li Jing's words was very clear. Not only did he allow Bai Shuangran to go back to the south of the Yangtze River to continue to inherit his master's craftsmanship, but he also promised the position of the future royal nephew's piano teacher.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Bai Shuangran might not understand, but he was grateful for His Majesty's sage.

—Jiangnan Suhu County—

In late spring, there is little rain in Jingzhao City, but there is a lot of rain in the south of the Yangtze River.Different from the torrential rain and thunder in the summer of Jingzhao, the rain in the south of the Yangtze River and the people in the south of the Yangtze River are gentle: continuous, moistening things silently.

In Jiangnan where it doesn't rain, the air is also covered with a layer of veil.This layer of gauze slides across the skin, as if being licked by a cute raccoon slave or puppy, but it feels cool.

After staying outside for a long time, I felt tiny drops of water condense on my body, and I was a little bored with the original beauty.

Getting off the carriage and returning to this long-lost world, feeling the familiarity different from Jingzhaocheng, Bai Shuangran was also a little dazed for a while.

Although Bai Shuangran's father, Bai Lanting, is considered to be from Jingzhao City, since Bai Shuangran was born, he has been living with his parents in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has assumed the position of an imperial merchant, doing business for Da Li. Go back to Jingzhao City...

On the contrary, this Jiangnan, this Suhu Lake, and the master's piano hall are the places Bai Shuangran is most familiar with.

"Master, the unworthy disciple Shuangran has returned." Knocking on the door, Bai Shuangran didn't know how Master was doing, and was quite worried.

"Senior Sister, Senior Sister." The little junior sister ran over to open the door. She looked about seven or eight years old, her hair was loosely pulled up, her small face was slightly pointed, and she still had a bit of flesh. The appearance of taking off the latch and looking out through the crack of the door is very cute.

"Senior Sister, you are finally back, and Master always talks about you!"

Looking at the little junior sister in front of him, Bai Shuangran felt warm in his heart. He rubbed his junior sister's head, lifted him up and hugged Lao Gao, different from the usual mature and polite, in front of the junior junior sister, Bai Shuangran's smile was even more tender. Added a bit of sincerity.

In front of her junior sister and master, Bai Shuangran never had to hide any of her emotions, and she was able to add a bit of worldly emotion to her usual indifference to fame and fortune.

"How is the master's illness? Have you been taking piano lessons with the master recently?"

Junior Junior Sister is an orphan adopted by Master. The person Master liked died in the war. In fact, I and Junior Junior Sister are more like my own children to Master...

"Master is better."

"Senior Sister, Master has been thinking about you all the time. Now that you are back, Master's illness should be better."

Junior Sister is not particularly good at talking at this age, and she doesn't know those words that sound touching. It is already very good to be able to express herself clearly.

But simple and pure words are often the most touching. Bai Shuangran felt more and more sour in her heart when she listened - she took care of Her Highness the Princess in the Taiji Palace for the sake of the country, but she didn't take care of her master. She should have planned earlier.

"But Master said, Senior Sister went to the palace to, um...to do good deeds, to protect Her Royal Highness, so Master told me not to write letters to disturb you."

"But Master was sick, so I secretly asked Senior Sister to write a letter to Senior Sister, the sister you hired to take care of Master."

In fact, Bai Shuangran knew that the letter was definitely not written by Master's father, maybe because of Master's sweetheart, Master has always put the country first...

No matter how much the junior sister and the girl who took care of the master imitated the tone of the master, they couldn't imitate it.

But when His Majesty came to look for the master, it would be impossible for the master to confess that the little junior sister made up the letterhead, and this happened later.

"Senior Sister...you don't blame me, do you?"

"Shuangran, cough... Now that you're back, come in quickly." The master in the room heard all this clearly, and now he doesn't intend to make Bai Shuangran and the little apprentice blame themselves anymore.

In fact, the master is not very old, he has just passed the age of forty.But perhaps it is the sadness of the sweetheart's martyrdom and early death, Huafa is better than Qingsi.

Perhaps she has been indifferent to fame and fortune for a long time, and Bai Shuang dyed Master's face without any age-crissed grooves.

With the hair tied up in a bun, one can still see the delicate appearance of that year.Looking closely, Bai Shuangran's demeanor reveals a bit of indomitableness and refinement similar to that of Master.

If there is no lively little junior sister, the whole Erqin Hall might be no different from the Banished Immortal Palace or the Immortal Shu Palace. In the dense place in the south of the Yangtze River, it seems to be separated from all the customs of the world.

"Haven't you played the piano for a long time? I want to listen to it as a teacher. What's missing now?"

Master Bai Shuangran's illness should indeed be much better, and he can already stand up and walk around...
