As the saying goes, Xiao Biesheng is newlywed, and for Li Yuntian, it is natural to have a lingering relationship with Chen Ningning, who he has not seen for a long time, so he did not go to Yixiangtang at night, but stayed at home to accompany Chen Ningning.

"Xianggong, how are you going to deal with Hongluan and Zijuan?" In the dead of night, in an elegant bedroom, on the antique wooden bed, Chen Ningning, who was full of red tide, snuggled up to Li Yuntian's chest and asked softly.

"No matter which of them is a pawn arranged by Chen Guangzong, Xianggong will treat them with caution." Li Yuntian put his arms around Chen Ningning's snow-white neck, looked at the quiet night outside the venue and said, "The weather is gradually starting to get cooler, and it must be getting harder and harder for those salt merchants." ”

"Xianggong, the case of the two Huai Yandao embezzlement of ink is a matter of great importance, I'm afraid that no one in the Ming Dynasty can thoroughly investigate it except you." Chen Ningning smiled slightly when she heard this, slowly closed her eyes, and enjoyed this rare moment of solitude.

"The greed for ink in the Lianghuai Salt Road has been around for a long time, and many of them have become confused accounts, so it is not easy to find out." Li Yuntian smiled helplessly, and said with emotion, "As long as you can check the greed of the two Huai Salt Road in recent years, and recover as much of the lost tax and silver as possible for the imperial court, you will already be very satisfied." ”

"Xianggong, did the emperor say that the case of the two Huai Yan Dao has been investigated?" Chen Ningning knew that the case of Lianghuai Yandao was very tricky, and asked with concern after pondering for a while.

Although she believed that Li Yuntian could find out about the matter of the Lianghuai Salt Road, the danger in it made her a little uneasy, after all, there were many officials involved in the Lianghuai Salt Road, and Li Yuntian would encounter the other party's crazy counterattack.

"The emperor naturally wants to bring all the corrupt officials to justice, but for the sake of the stability of the political situation in the Ming Dynasty, he finally decided to open the net, if the two Huai Yandao are greedy for ink, only implicate the corrupt officials after the emperor ascended the throne."

Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and stroked the long silky hair on Chen Ningning's head, and said with a smile, "The emperor still has too many concerns, if he is replaced by the first emperor, I am afraid that he will have to start liquidating from the time of Emperor Taizong." ”

"The case of Lianghuai Yandao is so big, the emperor naturally has to be careful, and the emperor is filial piety, and he doesn't want to implicate Emperor Shangxian and Emperor Taizong." Chen Ningning couldn't help but feel a little relieved when she heard this, reached out and touched Li Yuntian's cheek and said, in this way, the pressure Li Yuntian faced would undoubtedly be much smaller.

Although Emperor Hongxi acted cowardly when he was the crown prince, but now almost all the important ministers in the court know that it is Emperor Hongxi who is forbearing, since Emperor Hongxi ascended the throne, he has drastically reformed the government.

"It's good that way, and it saves the public the effort to clean up the aftermath." Li Yuntian smiled and closed his eyes, hugged Chen Ningning and slowly fell asleep, in fact, he didn't want to make himself too tired.

For a few days, Li Yuntian took Chen Ningning, Zheng Wanrou and Lei Ting to ride his magnificent four-wheeled carriage to play in Yangzhou City, and he didn't know when the two sides would meet next time after this reunion.

Chen Ningning's arrival invisibly diluted the oppressive atmosphere that shrouded the heads of the officials of the Lianghuai Salt Road and the salt merchants of the Salt Merchants Association.

On August 14, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Yuntian led Chen Ningning, Zheng Wanrou and Lei Ting, who were disguised as men, to Yixiangtang to cheer for Hongluan.

It is worth mentioning that since Chen Ningning came to Yangzhou, Zhao Xinyue avoided it with interest, so as not to disturb the reunion between Li Yuntian and Chen Ningning, so naturally she would not follow her as a light bulb.

After learning the news of Li Yuntian's coming, Hongluan and Zijuan, who had been waiting for Li Yuntian behind closed doors for the past few days, hurriedly dressed up and rushed over, one stroked the piano and the other danced, helping Li Yuntian and others to drink, and the scene was very lively and cheerful.

"Chen Gongzi, it's rare for everyone to be so happy today, and you can also play a song to cheer everyone up." After Zijuan finished playing the song, Li Yuntian put down his wine glass with a smile and said to Chen Ningning, who was sitting beside him.

To tell the truth, Li Yuntian hasn't listened to Chen Ningning caressing the piano for a long time, and it was Chen Ningning's piano sound that led him to the small courtyard where he lived in Hukou County, and then achieved a golden and jade relationship between the two.

At the same time, I also want to give Zijuan, who thinks highly of her piano skills, a beating, to let her know that Yu Chen Ningning's piano skills are still far from her.

"Since Zhao Gongzi has a heart, then he will be ugly." Chen Ningning smiled slightly when she heard this, walked towards Zijuan, and said with a smile to her, "Zijuan girl, can you borrow it for a treasure." ”

"Childe, please." Zijuan immediately got up, bowed and retreated to the side, looking at Chen Ningning with interest.

She had already seen that Chen Ningning was dressed as a man, and when she thought of the rumors that Chen Ningning had returned to Yangzhou City in recent days, she immediately realized that the handsome and temperamental son in front of her was Li Yuntian's third lady.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Ningning reached out and stroked the strings of the guzheng in front of her, and then gently hooked a string, and the guzheng suddenly "dang" sounded, making a crisp empty sound, which made the hearts of everyone at the scene awe-inspired, and their attention involuntarily focused on Chen Ningning's body.

Zijuan's face suddenly showed a look of surprise, the so-called connoisseur knew if there was one as soon as he made a move, although Chen Ningning had not yet started to play, but this single starting gesture shocked her, it was completely the demeanor and momentum of a famous musician, and she was much inferior to it.

Then, Chen Ningning's Qianqianyu fingers in both hands slid lightly on the zither, and a melodious and pleasant sound of the piano seemed to come from above the nine heavens, lingering in the room like a small stream, making everyone feel relaxed and happy.

Seeing this situation, Zijuan's face changed several times one after another, her eyes were full of consternation, she already knew that she had lost at the beginning of the song, and with her level, she was undoubtedly a class in front of Chen Ningning, and it was not worth mentioning.

"If life stops as it first sees, what is the autumn wind and sad fan. Waiting for idle changes but old people's hearts, but old people's hearts are changeable! Lishan said that it was half a night away, and the tears and rain and zero bells did not complain. How is Bo Xing Jinyilang, who wishes on the day of the wings! ”

Just when Zijuan stood there stunned, Chen Ningning sang the "Mulan Ci" that Li Yuntian made for her on Poyang Lake while stroking the piano, and looked at Li Yuntian with tender eyes, as if he had returned to the happy time when he was in Hukou County in the past.

When Li Yuntian first arrived in Hukou County, he was attacked by Wang San, the leader of the Poyang Lake bandits, when he was in Baishui Town, Wang San not only looted in Baishui Town, but also demonstratively threw a human head in front of Li Yuntian, so that Li Yuntian had to pretend to be unconscious to get out.

Afterwards, due to the huge disturbance caused by the robbery and raid of Baishui Town, Li Yuntian took full responsibility for Emperor Yongle regardless of his career, and made every effort to relieve the disaster, so that the victims were properly resettled, and his concern for the people moved Chen Ningning, so Li Yuntian saw him off when he left Baishui Town, and the two were able to go boating on the lake.

On the lake, Chen Ningning thanked Li Yuntian for rehousing the victims of the attack and harassment of the water bandits in Baishui Town, so that they were spared the suffering of sleeping in the rough, and second, Li Yuntian thanked Li Yuntian for reuniting with their families after they were forcibly recruited by the Baishui Town Inspection Department, and third, he apologized for Chen Bozhao for leaving Li Yuntian in Baishui Town and incurring the intimidation of the water bandits.

Li Yuntian responded with this Nalan Xingde's "Mulan Ci" and gave it to Chen Ningning, the vast lake surface coupled with a slightly bleak tone in the slowness, "Mulan Ci" moved Chen Ningning as soon as he chanted it, especially "If life stops as first seen, what is the autumn wind sad painting fan!" It can be called the finishing touch, exhausting the sadness and helplessness of the emotions of men and women in the world, and the grievances and sorrows.

From this poem, Chen Ningning clearly felt Li Yuntian's deep friendship with her, and couldn't help but think of the scene when the two met for the first time in the small courtyard on a moonlit night.

Chen Ningning sang "Mulan Ci" twice in a row, and everyone at the scene was infected by the sad and graceful artistic conception of the song, and when she finished playing, the room was silent.

"Good!" Li Yuntian, who was stuck in the memories of the past, was the first to come back to his senses, got up and applauded with a smile, looking at Chen Ningning's eyes with tenderness like water.

Under the leadership of Li Yuntian, everyone applauded, and no one thought that Chen Ningning's piano skills would be so superb, which made everyone unsatisfied and had endless aftertaste.

"Chen Gongzi's piano skills are extraordinary, I don't know if I can guide the little girl to a thing or two, so that the little girl can be taught." Zijuan's attainments in music and rhythm are the highest among all the people on the scene except for Chen Ningning, and she naturally receives the deepest emotional rendering, so after taking a deep breath, she looked at Chen Ningning in awe, and was willing to bow to Chen Ningning's piano skills, and sighed to herself.

The reason why Chen Ningning has such excellent piano skills is because she studied under the famous music master Lechen in Daming, and studied with Lechen in Jiangnan for five years.

Le Chen was a court musician in the Yuan Dynasty, who once performed for Emperor Hongwu, and his exquisite skills won the favor of Emperor Hongwu, so he was named a royal musician.

In order to improve the cultivation of the rhythm, in the later period of the Hongwu Dynasty, Lechen left the capital to travel to the famous mountains and rivers, and played together at the banquet of the foreign envoys who welcomed the tributaries of the Yongle Emperor during the Yongle period.

It is rumored that Lechen only accepted five disciples in his life, all of whom were famous music and rhythm masters in the world, but unfortunately three of them have passed away like Lechen.

"Miss Zijuan has won the award, and I don't dare to give advice, so we can learn from each other and encourage each other." Facing Zijuan's request, Chen Ningning smiled slightly and readily agreed.

From the sound of the purple cuckoo, Chen Ningning thought of herself when she was young, the song was full of arrogance that she was willing to give up who else, since she was with Li Yuntian, Chen Ningning's heart has gradually been sharpened, no longer like the previous lonely self-appreciation, but dissolved her feelings into the world, and then made her sublimated like the music dust who traveled through the famous mountains and rivers, and it can be said to be reborn in terms of music.

To tell the truth, Chen Ningning admires Zijuan very much, Zijuan is very talented in music, although it is slightly inferior to her, it is already very rare, so he has the heart to guide her to the next level.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Zijuan was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly thanked Chen Ningning, if she could get Chen Ningning's guidance, her piano skills would undoubtedly go further.

Li Yuntian looked at the scene in front of him with a smile, his eyes were not easy to perceive, the more harmonious the relationship between Zijuan and Chen Ningning, the more he could confuse the outside world, this was exactly the situation he wanted to see.
