Jiang Ping's face was slightly awkward as he said,"Sir, let go of my son. I promise to let go of the past."”
Yu Qi said,"Don't put on an act, Lord Jiang. If you want me to release Young Master Jiang, it's not impossible. However, I have two conditions."”
"Oh, you want those two conditions.”
"Prepare a carriage and send us to the ferry."”
Jiang Ping's eyes flashed as he said,"Alright, come, prepare a carriage."”
"Sir, can you release my son now?”Jiang Ping said.
Yu Qi stopped smiling and said coldly,"Lord Jiang, don't play those tricks on me. Find a carriage and send us out of the city. When we reach a safe place, I will naturally let Young Master Jiang go.”
"You have no choice but to trust me." Yu Qi said in a deep voice.”
Jiang Ping stared at Yu Qi's gaze and took a deep breath."Commandant Sun, go and find another carriage. Find a more luxurious one. Young Master is injured.”
"Lord Jiang is a smart person. You wouldn't be thinking of doing something to the carriage, right?" Yu Qi said playfully.”
"Of course not," Jiang Ping said coldly.”
Not long after, Sun Li arrived with a luxurious carriage.
"Lord Jiang's heart aches for Young Master Jiang." Yu Qi smiled.”
At this moment, Ji Ling supported the slightly weak Ji Wei out of the Xie residence.
Ji Wei's face was still pale, but her eyes were bright. Her movements were no longer affected. She looked at Yu Qi, and as she moved, there was an unbreakable affection.
Yu Qi felt guilty and did not dare to look.
"Let's go," she said in a clear voice.
Ji Ling and his sister didn't say much and got into the carriage. Ji Ling waved his whip and drove the carriage, while Yu Qi held Jiang Sheng hostage and entered the carriage.
The carriage was extremely spacious. The zither vibrated gently as two beautiful figures appeared. They were Xie Qiudi and Lu He.
The wheels of the carriage moved quickly. The carriage parted the rain and mist and headed out of Lishui Commandery.
in the compartment
Yu Qi waved his right hand, and Jiang Sheng's eyes rolled back before he fainted.
"Young Master Yu, why did you knock him out?" Lu He covered her mouth and chuckled.
Yu Qi also smiled,"It's an eyesore."”
At this moment, Yu Qi sighed and asked,""Miss Xie, are you really leaving Lishui?”
"Young Master Yu, what are you thinking?”Xie Qiudi rolled her eyes.
Yu Qi thought to himself, did I say anything wrong?
At this moment, Xie Qiudi's white veil was dyed red, and her ears were also red. In the carriage, other than Lu He, Ji Wei also looked at Yu Qi with a strange expression.
Yu Qi carefully savored the four words, human and ghost have different paths, and couldn't help but be speechless.
The raindrops hit the roof of the car, and the atmosphere in the car began to fall silent. For a moment, there was actually a hint of ambiguity.
Until Yu Qi could no longer stand the awkward atmosphere.
"I don't think Miss Xie has cultivated any ghost cultivation methods. Why was his soul so solid, with a faint green light coming out of his body?”
Xie Qiudi's delicate eyes were cold. Her jade-like hands gently caressed the zither in her hand. Her fingertips moved slightly, and a melodious tune sounded.
"It's all thanks to this zither," said Qing You.”
Yu Qi looked at the ancient zither made of golden nanmu wood and asked with a smile,"Can I borrow the zither to watch?"
As soon as he asked this question, Yu Qi realized that not only Xie Qiudi, but even the little maid Lu He was trembling.
Yu Qi thought, What does this mean?
Yu Qi actually didn't know that the two girls had stayed in the Guyue Zither for three years, and the Guyue Zither had already become their own body.
Thus, when he heard Yu Qi, he actually wanted to pick up the zither and play with it. How could this not cause ripples in the hearts of the two women?
Although Yu Qi didn't know what he had said wrong, he saw Xie Qiudi and Lu He's bashful expressions, and Ji Wei's blaming look.
In fact, if Ji Wei didn't understand Yu Qi's personality, she would have thought that he had evil intentions.
Yu Qi cleared his throat and said,"I was rude."”
Xie Qiudi and Lu He looked at each other. Xie Qiudi held back her embarrassment and said,"Young Master, you can take a look."
Yu Qi didn't know what he meant, so he took the zither and placed it on his knees.
His fingers lightly touched the ground and he lowered his head to take a closer look.
Yu Qi found that the texture of this zither was exquisite, the shape was beautiful, and the temperament was elegant.
Without raising his head, he asked casually,""Does this zither have a name?"
"This zither was made from a thousand-year-old golden nanmu tree on Qixia Mountain in the ancient Yue Country. It doesn't have a name and is usually simply called the Ancient Yue Zither.”
Yu Qi gently plucked the strings and said with emotion,"Since I was nameless before, how about I call him Jinse in the future?"”
Xie Qiudi muttered the words "Jinse" in a low voice. Although she couldn't understand the meaning behind it, she somehow felt that it had a profound meaning.
Xie Qiudi's eyes moved slightly, and her cherry lips opened slightly."Why is Young Master named after the zither?"
Yu Qi looked at the drizzle outside the curtain and was silent for a long time.
His eyes were lost in thought as he said,"There are fifty strings on the zither, and each string is full of longing for the years." Zhuangsheng Xiaomeng…"
Yu Qi thought of some people and things, and the memories that he thought were already blurry seemed to gradually become clear.
Warmth, bitterness, sweetness, pain…all of them exploded at the same time in the bottom of his heart. For a moment, all kinds of feelings were mixed, and it was difficult to say whether he was sad or happy.
Xie Qiudi's mind was quick-witted as she looked at the young man with a complicated gaze.
"This feeling can be treated as a reminiscence, but I was already lost at that time.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Wei's eyes were filled with disappointment and confusion.
The carriage was moving at an extremely fast speed, causing a storm along the way. About two hours later, it stopped abruptly.
As for Xie Qiudi and her servant, they had already hidden themselves within the zither.
At the ferry crossing, the rain and fog were hazy, the river water was turbulent, and the turbid waves were surging.
Yu Qi and Ji Ling alighted from the carriage outside the forest about a mile away from the ferry.
"Lord Jiang, there's no need to follow." Yu Qi shouted behind him.”
Sure enough, a team of horses had been following behind him. At this moment, when they heard Yu Qi's shout, a tall horse suddenly appeared. Jiang Ping sat on it, wearing a bamboo hat and a straw raincoat. He looked at Yu Qi with a cold expression.
"Sir, can you let my son go?" Jiang Ping asked coldly.”
Jiang Ping's face was ashen as he ordered,"Retreat ten miles.”
Sun Li urged his horse forward and whispered,""Milord, do we really have to retreat ten li?”
"Commandant Sun, did you not understand my order?”Jiang Ping's face was livid.
Sun Li cupped his fists in front of his chest.”
"Retreat ten miles."
