Chapter 524 Sleep peacefully
Su Nuan did not answer the crying Lie Feng's question, and instructed him to continue walking towards the villa.
This time, Liefeng didn't dare to drive the carriage so fast. He didn't even dare to wave the whip and just held the reins to pull.
Feeling that the carriage was too stable, Su Nuan sighed helplessly and asked Lie Feng to keep the news of her pregnancy a secret. But before she finished her words, she suddenly stopped, quickly opened the window with one hand, and listened carefully.
There was a faint sound of piano in the cold wind, and the sound was mixed with the sound of voices.
"parking."
Su Nuan suddenly ordered.
Liefeng's heart tightened, and he quickly asked Su Nuan: "Are you feeling unwell, Madam? Otherwise, I will go and invite Doctor Yao over right away."
"Do not talk."
Su Nuan gave the order again.
Liefeng quickly closed his mouth and waited nervously.
Su Nuan glanced at the plaque of "Jiyin Jiaofang" in the distance and urged Liefeng to continue driving the carriage, but the direction was not the villa they were going to before but Jiyin Jiaofang.
Liefeng didn't understand and didn't dare to ask. His little heart could no longer withstand any more fluctuations, so he obediently stopped the carriage in front of Jiyin Jiaofang.
The Chinese New Year is the busiest time for the Jiyin Music Academy. Most of the musicians are invited to perform in various cities. There are not many people in the academy. The little doorman who opened the door was about the same age as Danggui and led Su Nuan in.
Su Nuan had been to this Jiyin Jiaofang many times and was very familiar with its structure.
As she walked, she observed secretly, and did not notice anything unusual until she was brought in front of Le Xinghe.
"Why did you come to me today, Madam?"
As soon as they met, Le Xinghe asked in surprise, "Are you dissatisfied with today's performance?"
Seeing that he misunderstood, Su Nuan quickly explained: "No, don't get me wrong, I was just passing by here and wanted to thank you in person."
Hearing this, Le Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Don't be so polite, Madam. I received a lot of rewards today."
"By the way, I didn't see the queen at the banquet, but what happened?"
Su Nuan thought for a moment and said, "Yes, something happened in the General's Mansion. I didn't feel like entertaining guests, so I went back to the General's Mansion early in the morning."
After saying that, she sighed.
"It seems that the matter has not been resolved yet. Is there anything I can help with?"
As soon as the question came out, Le Xinghe said self-deprecatingly, "I am overestimating my own abilities. How can I possibly help with something that the Empress and the General haven't solved?"
"I really need your help."
"what?"
"I was in a very upset mood. I just heard the piano music coming from your place, and I felt better. Can you play the song you played before again?"
"Okay, Madam, let me get ready."
After saying that, Le Xinghe called two children, one of whom brought a rattan chair, and the other covered the rattan chair with animal skin.
The two men brought a few more braziers and placed them around the rattan chairs.
After the two children finished their work, Le Xinghe pointed to the rattan chair and said to Su Nuan, "Please sit down, Madam."
Su Nuan sat on it as she was told and immediately realized the beauty of the chair.
The backrest of this rattan chair perfectly fits the physiological curvature of the spine. Coupled with the soft and warm animal skin, Su Nuan was so comfortable leaning on it that she closed her eyes.
As Le Xinghe raised his hands, melodious music slowly flowed out.
The room was filled with the sound of the piano. Su Nuan's expression gradually softened, and her body gradually relaxed. She seemed to be really immersed in the sound of the piano.
The song was quickly finished, and Su Nuan was still lying on the rattan chair with her eyes closed.
Le Xinghe walked up to her and called her twice, but got no response.
So he asked the child to get Su Nuan's cloak and cover her with it.
He sat back down at the piano and continued playing, this time with a softer tune.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Nuan slowly opened her eyes, looked at the cloak covering her body, then looked at Le Xinghe who was still playing the piano, and said, "Sorry, I fell asleep."
"Few people can stay awake while sitting on this chair and listening to me play the piano. This chair is specially prepared for people who are tired physically and mentally. The songs I played later can also help people fall asleep. Your Majesty was too tired. You fell asleep when I played the first song."
Le Xinghe spoke in a gentle tone. Su Nuan listened quietly, but her mood was difficult to describe.
“I might just be really tired.”
As the two were talking, Su Nuan was still lying on the rattan chair, with no intention of getting up.
Seeing this, Le Xinghe smiled and said, "If your majesty likes this rattan chair, I will give it to you."
Su Nuan could tell that these words were meant to send the guest off.
"Sir, if you say so, I won't be polite. I'll send someone to get it later."
As she spoke, she stood up from the chair, looking reluctant to leave, and continued, "But now that I'm back at the Prince's Mansion, there's only this chair, and without the sound of the piano, I'm afraid the sleep-inducing effect will be discounted."
"I can send a pianist over later to play a lullaby for the queen."
"No one else's piano skills can match yours, sir."
Le Xinghe looked a little unnatural, and replied: "I personally trained the zither player, and he is no worse than me at playing this lullaby."
"I feel relieved when you say that, sir. Then I'll trouble you to go to the Prince's Mansion and play for me tonight."
After the two of them agreed on this, Su Nuan looked out the window and said, "It's getting late. I should go back."
Outside the gate of Jiyin Jiaofang, Liefeng was waiting there in a horse-drawn carriage.
Le Xinghe sent Su Nuan to the carriage. After watching the carriage go away, he frowned and asked the child beside him, "Has the person left?"
The boy replied, "Don't worry sir, he left when you played the second song."
