Chapter 192 Liu Ning's decision
It has to be said that Pei Qing deserves to be 95 intelligence and has a very high talent in learning. Although he has never been involved in learning guqin before, he has been able to skillfully use basic fingering in just half an hour, which surprised Cai Zhaoji. It took her three days to practice fingering.
Of course, this is not entirely because Cai Zhaoji's intelligence is not as good as Pei Qing, and the reason why Zhaoji was young at that time was unable to compare with the brain of an adult, Pei Qing.
However, despite this, Pei Qing's learning ability is really strong, which makes Zhao Ji even more moved by him.
When Pei Qing left, he happened to meet Cai Yong and came back. The two of them naturally said something again. Cai Yong even pulled Pei Qing to play chess before letting Pei Qing leave.
Cai Yong found Cai Zhaoji after Pei Qing left and asked Pei Qing about his purpose.
So Cai Zhaoji told Pei Qing about her purpose, her own response, and the matter of Pei Qing helping her to modify her poems, and at the same time she was amazed at Pei Qing's strong learning ability.
Cai Yong's expression changed when he heard this, and then he said to Cai Zhaoji in a deep voice: "Yan'er, are you still so obsessed with it today? No matter how good he is, he is now the husband of others. Are you really willing to be someone else's concubine?"
Cai Zhaoji quickly stammered and said, "I, I don't..."
When Cai Yong heard this, he sighed and said, "What are you not there? Child, how can you hide it from being a father? Isn't the reason why you let him come to learn the piano in person to create a chance to be alone?"
Cai Zhaoji gritted her teeth when she heard this, and said, "My daughter admits that she really misses him. Not to mention his talent and character, just his life-saving grace to my father and daughter is worthy of her daughter to repay him with all means."
"But it is precisely because of this that I stayed in Chang'an to serve him. Otherwise, I thought my father's personality would have long since retired to the mountains and forests, and even the court would not bother to go there. I actively recruited scholars from home with my reputation. Even Zheng Kang and Chengdu were visiting Chang'an, wouldn't it be enough to repay him for saving his life? Why do you have to put yourself in again?"
"Do you know, Father? What is the poem Pei Qing revised for me? Do you know why my daughter wrote this poem? This is mainly because my daughter had a dream when she did her homework. This dream was so real that she felt like Zhuangsheng dreaming of a butterfly when she woke up."
Cai Zhaoji then told Cai Yong in detail about her dream and said her guess: "My daughter has always had a strong intuition. If Pei Lang had not saved me, I am afraid that the dream would have become reality. Her daughter would have lived in the Huns for more than ten years, gave birth to two children, and then separated from the child when she was redeemed by someone. It was Pei Lang's righteous rescue that changed the fate of her daughter and also changed the fate of her father. Such kindness, let alone the daughter is a concubine, even a maid who is a dowry like Xiaobai would not feel wronged at all. The daughter is afraid, even if her daughter wants to be his concubine, he will not care about it. This is a poem written by her daughter. After that, he made changes, and his changes were done in one go, so that her daughter could not change a word."
"Let me see your poem." Cai Yong then asked for the sad and angry poem from Cai Zhaoji, and read it carefully, and then sighed: "I really didn't expect that your life in your dreams would be so miserable. This person is indeed talented and able to adapt your poems so appropriately. Not only is the wording more accurate, but it is also completely your writing style. In this way, he is indeed your confidant. From this point of view, even if you are his concubine, it is not considered as a humiliating yourself. Moreover, I think he is a general of cavalry and the Marquis of Wenxi County, which is definitely not his final achievement, so it is really hard to say that he can become a person like Wang Mang, Dong Zhuo, or a person like Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Guangwu. If it is the former, wouldn't you worry about your future destiny?"
Cai Zhaoji smiled bitterly and said, "Since the moment he saved me, I have promised him in my life. Whether he is a thief, a thief, or even just a beggar, what does it matter? What's the matter with his people, not his power or no power."
"Since that's the case, I don't care about your affairs anymore. Whenever you need it, I will ask the princess to let her promise to leave a place for you. Please take care of the rest. I didn't expect that my daughter, Cai Yong, will finally be someone else's concubine." Cai Yong smiled bitterly and then left slowly.
Not long after Pei Qing left Cai’s Mansion, Liu Ning knew the matter. She sneered and said, “This vixen named Ren is really shameless. There is also a person with no conscience in our family who really gave up their face for this fox charm and went to ask Cai Zhaoji. However, Zhaoji is also in bad intentions. She obviously wants to create an opportunity to get along with this unconscience in order to cultivate feelings.”
"Then, princess, what should we do? You can't watch them continue like this, right?" Dong Bai said angrily after replying to Liu Ning: "I originally thought he was such a strange man? But now he looks no different from other men. He is lustful and lustful. No matter what kind of woman he wants, it's fine. She has long been interested in him, but Lu Bu's concubine is just a maid, and he actually wants it too. No, I mean, he doesn't know how to cherish women like the princess, and he actually wants it. It's really hateful..."
"Haha, Xiaobai, do you want to learn the piano?" Liu Ning did not accept Dong Bai's words, but asked with a faint smile at Dong Bai.
"Ah? Learn, learn the piano? What does the princess mean?" Dong Bai was also a smart woman. After hearing Liu Ning's words, he immediately thought of something and asked.
"That's right. I want you to help me see how Diao Chan seduced Pei Lang. At the same time, I also want to give you a chance to get close to Pei Lang. Pei Lang is a lover, but he is not a passionate person. I believe it's not that you are not outstanding enough. As long as your skill is done, he will accept you. Anyway, he will take concubines sooner or later. I can't occupy such an excellent man alone, right? Since that's the case, it's better to give yourself a favor than others. I'll give you the opportunity. Whether you can succeed depends on yourself."
