Chapter 222: In a hurry to show off, the conversation was dead
"I'm thirsty right now, Yixuan, you're pretty good at pitching pots, come and teach Miss Liao." After Xiao Yan'an finished speaking, he immediately walked towards Ji Chuhe and sat next to her.
"Ma'am, please pour me a cup of tea."
Ji Chuhe picked up the teapot, poured a cup for Xiao Yanan, and handed it to him.
"Prince, have some tea."
"Thank you, ma'am." Xiao Yan'an took it and took a sip.
Rong Yixuan began to teach Liao Yunfei how to play pot throwing.
"Brother Crown Prince, you and my sister-in-law have such a good relationship! It's really enviable. Just like what is written in the book, I wish to be a pair of wings in the sky and a pair of branches on the ground." When Rong Qingqing saw Xiao Yan'an's reaction to Liao Yunfei, she immediately felt a lot closer to this brother Crown Prince.
When Liao Yunfei heard this, he shot the arrow with more force and threw it far away.
Soon, she finished shooting her arrows and turned to the pavilion.
"Madam, do you like playing pitch pot?" she asked proactively.
"I don't like it very much." Ji Chuhe responded softly.
"Everyone is having so much fun today, Madam Crown Prince, would you like to give it a try? I didn't like it at first, but today I suddenly discovered the fun of pitching pots. From now on, I must practice hard and strive to have better skills next time I pitch."
"Ms. Liao, keep up the good work." Ji Chuhe answered evasively.
Liao Yunfei moved her lips but didn't know how to start speaking.
Ji Chuhe didn't even give her a chance to find any more topics to talk about.
However, she did not leave, but sat down shamelessly.
"Prince, what is your prize today?" Ji Chuhe suddenly asked.
"It's a jade flute." Xiao Yan'an pointed in a direction, and saw a servant standing there holding a tray, which contained the jade flute.
"This is Yixuan's favorite thing. If he loses, he will have to play a song for us later." Xiao Yan'an added.
“Prince, since I am willing to put it up as a stake, I will naturally accept the consequences of my defeat.” Rong Yixuan responded with a smile.
"Prince, if you win, I would like to play a piece of music to accompany my fourth cousin." Liao Yunfei also quickly interjected.
Xu Yan'er almost rolled her eyes to the sky.
This Liao Yunfei is so annoying!
No wonder none of the three young ladies of the Rong family likes Liao Yunfei!
"Prince, I think that jade flute is nice." Ji Chuhe looked at the jade flute, as if he liked it very much.
"Madam, wait a minute while I win cousin Yixuan's jade flute." Xiao Yan'an stood up and walked out.
Liao Yunfei secretly clenched her hands.
Ji Chuhe really didn't give her any loopholes to maneuver.
If Ji Chuhe hadn't said that she liked the jade flute, she could have said that the prince won just to listen to her piano!
"Come on, Prince brother!" Rong Qingqing shouted and rushed out to watch the game.
After half an hour, the game of throwing pots ended.
Xiao Yanan wins.
He walked up to Ji Chuhe holding the jade flute, "Madam, here you go."
Ji Chuhe took the jade flute and praised, "It is indeed not an ordinary thing, fourth cousin, I will accept it."
"Sister-in-law, just accept it!" Rong Yixuan said quickly with a bow.
As if Liao Yunfei had finally waited for the opportunity, she stood up and told the maid behind her, "Go get my zither."
"Yes, miss." The maid immediately left quickly.
Liao Yunfei is confident in her piano skills.
Since she was in elementary school, her pianist always praised her for her talent.
After arriving at the Duke's Mansion, the court musicians all praised her upon hearing her piano playing.
She believed that as long as the prince heard her piano, he would be deeply impressed by her.
She didn't ask the prince to fall in love with her at first sight like she did. She wanted him to slowly see her good side, and then fall in love with her step by step.
Soon, Liao Yunfei's piano was brought.
"Sister Yunfei, please decide on the music." Rong Yixuan said humbly.
"Fourth cousin, let's play a song called 'Between Water and Clouds.'" Liao Yunfei suggested confidently.
"Ms. Liao can actually play 'Between Water and Clouds'?" Ji Chuhe suddenly asked in surprise.
"Madam, do you also know the song 'Between Water and Clouds'?"
"I've heard a little bit about this song. It's from an ancient zither score. Originally, only the first half was left in the world. A skilled zither player added the rest at the back, and that's how the score of 'Water Flows Away' was preserved." Ji Chuhe told the source of the score.
"The Crown Prince's wife also knows the art of playing the zither?"
"I don't know how to play the qin. I learned all this from books. It's a great honor for me to hear this masterpiece today."
"Madam Crown Prince, you are too kind. It is my honor to play a song for the Crown Prince and his wife."
"However, this guqin score doesn't seem to match the flute. Miss Liao, I wonder if this will give people a feeling that the flute is mixed into the guqin sound, which will affect the beauty of the guqin sound?" Ji Chuhe suddenly asked.
Liao Yunfei's face froze.
"Liao Yunfei, the prince brother and sister-in-law obviously want to listen to my fourth brother's flute, but you just said that you were only using the piano to accompany my fourth brother! Now you want to show off again! Although the music score can be used universally, why is it called piano score? Of course it is only suitable for playing with the piano. You asked my fourth brother to play the flute for you, and my fourth brother became your accompaniment! You are really taking the place of the host!" Rong Qingqing retorted rudely.
"Qingqing, how can you say that to me?" Liao Yunfei retorted, two lines of tears streaming down her cheeks.
"I'm telling you, what's the matter? If you have the guts, go and complain to my mother! Can't you just play a few crappy songs? You really want to show off all the time!" Rong Qingqing responded harshly.
Liao Yunfei was so angry that her chest kept heaving.
After hearing what Rong Qingqing said, how could she have the leisure to play the piano!
She would never let Rong Qingqing go! Today, Rong Qingqing must be punished by her family!
"Ms. Liao, Qingqing is straightforward, that's just the way she is. I believe that as her sister, you will definitely not hold it against her. Since this is the piano score, could you please ask Miss Liao to play a song for us alone?" Ji Chuhe asked.
Her words gave Liao Yunfei a way out. Otherwise, if Liao Yunfei really hated Rong Qingqing, Rong Qingqing would suffer.
Since Liao Yunfei wants to perform, let her do it.
"Since the Crown Prince's wife has spoken, I will respectfully obey your order." Liao Yunfei was eager to show off, so of course she would take the opportunity.
She composed herself and sat down.
Ten slender fingers plucked the strings.
Ji Chuhe recognized it from the first sound of the piano.
Liao Yunfei is quite capable.
The sound of the piano was as gentle as the gurgling of water at first, and then slowly gathered like waves crashing against the shore. Even Xu Yan'er, who had always disliked Liao Yunfei, looked surprised at this moment!
Xu Yan'er quickly looked at Xiao Yan'an and found that Xiao Yan'an had closed his eyes, completely immersed in the music!
