Chapter 103: Meeting Again (3)
After a long time, the sound of the piano finally stopped...
"Who lives here?"
Yinyin was not immersed in the follow-up of Qinyin. When Qinyin stopped, she came back to her senses and asked.
"I heard it was the general's wife."
"Madame General?"
The general's wife Yin Yin seemed to be completely unaware of this. Moreover, she did not attend the banquet, so she knew nothing about it. She could only wonder whether this sad music came from her.
"She was Princess Quan from Han. Princess Quan came to Zhao to form an alliance. She was supposed to marry the King of Zhao, but there was a civil strife at that time and the King of Han wanted to help King Ling, the King of Zhao's younger brother, to replace the King of Zhao. In short, she was supposed to marry King Ling after he replaced the King of Zhao. Unexpectedly, the civil strife was quelled by King Zhao and King Ling died. Originally, Han should have been punished for their rebellion, and Princess Quan would have been killed. However, King Zhao had to give up the plan, considering the external and internal troubles at the time, and married Princess Quan to the general to consolidate the friendship between the two countries. It is not an exaggeration to say that Princess Quan was taken as a hostage, but there was no other way at the time."
Listening to Xiuying's story, Yinyin understood a little. She knew that Zhao Ziheng had refused the marriage proposal, but she didn't expect that the princess was betrothed to Zhao Ziyin. So she guessed that the piano music just now came from the princess, otherwise it wouldn't contain so much emotion. It must be hard to be a hostage, and the meaning of the piano music must come from this. If it was about missing someone, it was probably because of her hometown, and if it was about resentment, it was because of the place where she was imprisoned.
"In fact, everyone knew that Princess Quan was going to marry the King of Zhao. I don't know what happened later and Princess Quan was betrothed to the general. You have to know that under the circumstances at that time, the Han Kingdom would not have any objection even if she was betrothed to the general. In addition, the general's status was special and he was a good match for Princess Quan. But if you ask me, it was the King of Zhao who didn't like her."
Yinyin was somewhat surprised by what Xiuying mentioned intentionally or unintentionally. A marriage like this was irresistible, and the Han Kingdom was wrong in the rebellion. Although she sympathized with the princess, Yinyin felt a little happy when she heard Xiuying talk about the reason? Was it because Zhao Ziheng didn't like her?
"The former queen should have died in that civil strife, right?"
Yinyin felt a little depressed because she had heard about Zhao Ziheng 's reaction and behavior after the queen's death. If that was the case, it was understandable that Zhao Ziheng did not marry the princess. But when she thought of this, Yinyin felt a little sour in her heart.
“Well, that civil strife affected not only the queen, but also the unborn child in her belly… King Zhao was sad for a long time because of this.”
She didn't notice the change in Yinyin's expression, and she didn't even notice the words that came out of her mouth. Xiuying knew Zhao Ziheng's feelings for Yinyin, so of course she also knew Zhao Ziheng's self-blame and guilt towards Lin Wei. I think Zhao Ziheng must have suffered a lot of shock and trauma, right? When she heard Xiuying's words, Yinyin was stunned. She should have guessed it a long time ago, right? But why was her heart torn apart when she heard about the Queen's unborn child?
Do you feel betrayed? Yinyin laughed at herself in her heart, thinking that she was deceiving herself. Wasn't it that she would become like this whenever she heard anything about Zhao Ziheng after knowing him? The body is always more honest than the brain. Does this prove that Zhao Ziheng is the one she is looking for? Would she really fall in love with a man who loves two or more women at the same time?
"Go back!"
He suppressed his emotions, said hello and walked away. By the time Xiuying reacted, she was already quite a distance away from him. Xiuying hurried to catch up. Yinyin's steps were very hurried, but Xiuying was completely unaware of this and was completely unaware of what she had just said.
After returning to the residence, he simply said good night to Xiuying and closed the door. Xiuying was very concerned about Yinyin's sudden abnormality, but she didn't dare to disturb her, so she had to leave on her own; after closing the door, Yinyin slid down and sat on the ground against the door, burying her head between her knees, leaving no one knowing what she was thinking...
From the second day on, Xiuying noticed the changes in Yinyin, but she was unaware of it. Yinyin would stay in her room all day , thinking about something and always absent-minded. At night, the sound of the piano would still be heard, but Yinyin would not go close to it like the first time, but would listen quietly from afar in her own residence. One day, two days, three days... Several days passed, and Yinyin was like this every day. Also, the sound of the piano would be heard at night since that day. Every time the sound of the piano sounded, Yinyin felt as if she was responding to it and was deeply moved.
After a few days, Yinyin and Xiuying had very few conversations, and Yinyin was almost always in a daze. Xiuying thought about the reason a lot, but always got nothing in the end. No matter how she tried to persuade her, Yinyin would not respond. Worried and helpless, Xiuying had to find Wang Ye. Since someone was visiting, Yinyin couldn't refuse because of their special relationship.
That day, Wang Ye came to visit, and the two of them strolled around the garden of the General's Mansion. Although Xiuying had invited him, Wang Ye didn't say much, and just accompanied Yinyin. Yinyin was already worried, so she wouldn't take the initiative to talk. Coincidentally, while they were strolling, they unexpectedly ran into Ling Menghan, who rarely showed up...
"Who are you?"
Ling Menghan glanced at Wang Ye and Yin Yin in front of her with a calm tone. She was unmoved by Yin Yin's stunning beauty because she was as pretty as Yin Yin, or maybe she was not moved by appearance at all. Although the three of them met for the first time, except Ling Menghan, Wang Ye and Yin Yin had guessed the identity of the stranger in front of them.
