My apprentice is not easy

Chapter 53 The Prince and the Flower Boat

The sound of the piano echoed in her ears, but Shen Ling's thoughts suddenly jumped from enjoying to... the original plot of the world.

Qin, ranking first among the four arts, is known as elegant, and literati and inkmen also love to use and talk about the piano.

The author of that "healing text" is naturally no exception.

After experiencing Lihenzong's incident, the heroine went to the capital with Wu Guofu Yaosi's people, and because of her shallow cultivation, she joined Fu Yaosi.

It took more than a month to pass the newcomer trial of Fu Yaosi, led by some seniors, and started to do the task.

The first task is to find Li Xin, the sixth prince of Wu State.

This prince's mother is a dancer who came as a tribute from a small foreign country. She has no power from her natal family, and she is not favored by the emperor.

Since he was born, he was sent to be raised by Concubine Li, and the number of times he met his biological mother can be counted on one's fingers.

However, Concubine Li herself has her own child, so how could she care about an adopted son?
There was a rumor in the palace that Concubine Li saw that the sixth prince looked like his mother, so she sent someone to teach him how to dance, and arranged for a maid to pretend to be a girl.

Emperor Wu bumped into her once, but he just told Concubine Li not to go too far, and let it go.

Although this rumor is not true or false, it is enough to prove that the sixth prince is not favored.

However, the prince is a prince after all, and he disappeared for more than ten days, so the officials couldn't help but ignore him.

The heroine and her teammates searched for clues together, and finally got the news from a dude.

He said he saw the sixth prince boarding a... flower boat.

When the dandy said this, his eyes were full of contempt, and he even made a joke.

"Maybe the sixth prince is reluctant to come back?"

Not only him, but other people in the team, including the heroine, thought so too.

But the task still needs to be done.

A group of people went to the Wangjiang River in Kyoto, and asked the familiar boatman, but they said that there was no such thing as the dude said...Under the starry night, on the lotus lake, there was a flower boat wrapped in red gauze with candlelight hidden.

Even after searching all the flower boats, there was no sign of the sixth prince.

There was a dancing girl who told them that the red gauze flower boat would only appear on moonless nights.

They don't see each other on weekdays, but only appear at specific times, and things become weird in an instant.

Of course, this is also the responsibility of Fu Yaosi.

The hostess waited for several nights, and finally waited for the moonless night, and boarded the red gauze flower boat smoothly.

Like other ordinary flower boats, there are people to receive them, girls can be recruited to perform and so on.

But when everyone asked about the sixth prince, the people on the flower boat replied that they had never seen this person.

One night passed in a hurry, but the hostess and the others had nothing to gain.

At dawn, the flower boat thanked the guests, and everyone had to leave.

But after getting out of the flower boat, only to find that the heroine is missing, it suddenly dawned on me that something serious happened.

Here, the heroine was in a trance, and her teammates had disappeared.

Looking at the surrounding scene again, it has completely changed.

All the girls turned into skeletons with terrifying appearances, but they still played the piano and sang songs, as if they were being drawn by an invisible thread, and they couldn't help themselves.

The heroine was terrified and wanted to escape, but there was no way to escape.

After singing the song, the skeletons stood up together, moved in unison, and danced.

On the hands and feet, there is a silver thread, or... strings.

When the heroine was at a loss, the four strings dropped from the air and rushed towards her hands and feet.

The heroine took out her weapon to fight, but lost three moves, and was controlled by the strings, and danced with the countless skeletons.

The heroine's body is out of control, but she remains sober mentally.

She saw a stunning woman in red walking out from the depths of the flower boat.

Curly hair, almond eyes, holding a Yaoqin in her arms.

Afterwards, the consciousness gradually became blurred during the dance.

At the last moment, she bit her lip desperately and regained consciousness for a moment.

I saw a Tsing Yi, a bright sword light...

After the heroine woke up, she was already in her own residence, at the moment of recuperation, and she was able to know the follow-up.

The flower boat was transformed from a Yaoqin banshee, and the many skeletons on board were all women who boarded the boat for various reasons.

Deprived of his face and flesh, his soul was imprisoned in the bones and could not be freed.

And the reason why the sixth prince was lured onto the boat... probably because of his good looks and female-like appearance, which made the monster admit his mistake.

The hostess sighed with emotion, and the matter turned upside down.

……

After finishing the song, the girl brushed her fingers over the strings and slowly withdrew them.

Then he raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ling expectantly.

Shen Ling took a sip of hot tea from her teacup and asked with a smile.

"Young lady's piano skills are extraordinary, she must have studied for many years, right?"

The girl smiled shyly.

"My mother taught me to play the piano since I was a child."

Putting down the teacup, Shen Ling looked at the piano, and there seemed to be nostalgia in her eyes.

Speaking of which, she hasn't touched this thing for a long time.

The girl noticed her gaze, blinked and asked.

"Sister, do you want to try?"

"Okay!"

Shen Ling put down the teacup, eager to try it.

The girl hurriedly got up to get out of the way, looking at Shen Ling with bright eyes.

"I was lucky enough to meet my sister today, I don't want to be a friend!"

Shen Ling stood up, and then waved her hands.

"It doesn't count, I don't have a deep study of temperament."

She walked over and sat in front of the piano, the score kept flashing in her mind.

Speaking of qin music, the one that impressed me the most was the song from the previous life... Feng Qiuhuang.

Shen Ling moved her fingers, put her fingertips on the piano, and when she plucked the strings, the piano sounded suddenly.

There was a smile on the corner of the girl's mouth, and she was about to appreciate it by herself, but she felt that her thoughts were empty.

The sound of the piano still echoed in my ears, but the scene I was in had completely changed.

She seemed to be at an altitude of [-] meters, with the wind whistling in her ears, and the branches and leaves of a towering sycamore tree shaking and making rustling sounds.

There was a bird chirping, and she hurriedly looked up.

But I saw a phoenix and a phoenix, chasing and whirling, dancing non-stop in the air, beautiful and magnificent.

The former walks, the latter chases, and the enthusiasm is like a spring.

The latter chases, the former walks away, and seems to know his intentions, and shirks.

The girl looked at it and became crazy.

Let me ask all the women in the world, who doesn't want to have this fervent love?

The sound of the piano stopped, and the scene in front of the girl disappeared without a trace.

She raised her hand and caressed her chest, only feeling a sense of loss, and she couldn't finish it.

But he heard a nice voice.

"Is this piano music for me?"

The girl froze for a moment, then turned her eyes to look.

I saw the handsome man who had entered the inner courtyard before, standing opposite Shen Ling, and said seriously.

"I see, I can do it."

The girl blinked, and her eyes lit up again.

The female boss confessed on the spot, and the little girl obediently agreed, so the next step is...

"Go, go, what can you do? Just wait and go!"

Shen Qinghe tilted her head, with a look of grievance on her face.

"Didn't it be played for me?"

Shen Ling just thought it was funny.

"no!"

How could she play a tune for him if she played it casually?
Shen Qinghe lowered his eyes and let out a light breath.

"……All right."

After finishing speaking, he obediently walked to the side and sat down by himself.

Shen Ling withdrew her gaze and looked at the girl.

"I've been forgetting to ask, what's the girl's name?"

The girl restrained her expression and bowed down.

"Lin Qingwan, I met my sister!"

Lin Qingwan... um, huh?
