Chapter 468 Who does Ye Xincheng want to go with?
"Misunderstand?"
Baili Wuyou (Chu You's sixth life was called "Baili Wuyou", so I'll call her that in this life) glanced at Ye Xincheng, who lay limp on the ground, nonchalantly, raised her eyebrows and chuckled:
"Do you think I'm blind?"
The prostrate male madam began to tremble like a bolt, and his words were even more halting:
"Reply, reply, Princess, this, this..."
He wanted to quibble, but under the invisible pressure of Baili Wuyou, he didn't even have the courage to lie. He could only kowtow and beg for mercy:
"Your Highness, please spare my life!
Xin Cheng is the most famous honest official here. If possible, we would never force him to do this.
It’s really…it’s really…”
"What is it really?"
Baili Wuyou waited for him to continue with amusement. The other party's clothes were soaked with cold sweat, but he didn't dare to say another word.
He cannot offend either the one in front of him or the one on the third floor.
If I had known this earlier, I would have volunteered to train that new beauty. I thought I would get a huge reward if I sent her to the third floor.
Who would have thought that before he could even get to the scene, his life was almost gone!
Just as the male madam was getting extremely worried, another slightly deeper female voice came from the third floor, seeming to be filled with great confusion:
"What's going on here?
I just asked you to call the most popular singer to sing a song in my room, why are you making such a fuss? "
After a pause, the woman in splendid clothes seemed to have just seen Baili Wuyou, and hurried downstairs to salute:
"I didn't know the Crown Princess was here, so I'm late in paying my respects. I hope the Crown Princess won't blame me."
"You've been listening upstairs for a long time, and now you come downstairs and tell me I'm here. Do you want to pretend a little more?
Baili Wuliu, you are still so hypocritical and disgusting! "
When Baili Wuyou spoke, he didn't give any face to the third imperial sister Baili Wulü at all.
A gloomy expression flashed across Baili Wuyou's face, but he still smiled very kindly:
"If Your Highness really doesn't believe me, I have nothing to say.
This Fengyue Tower is already quite busy. If I hadn't waited so long and didn't see the singer coming up, I would have gone out to check things out. I'm afraid I wouldn't have met you, the Princess!"
"I think you're really hoping not to meet me!
Otherwise, you would have already used force on him and succeeded!"
Baili Wuyou rolled his eyes, looking completely crazy and disregarding human nature and worldly matters.
Although the noble ladies and actresses who were watching from all sides were watching with excitement, no one dared to say anything in private.
One is the future empress of Lingyuan Kingdom, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and the other is the Third Princess, who is highly appreciated by the current empress. Either one can easily take their lives.
It was rumored that the Crown Princess was arrogant, and I previously thought that was a bit exaggerated.
Now that everyone has seen it, they realize that this is not an exaggeration at all, it is clearly the truth!
However, seeing how Ye Xincheng was bullied by the male madams, the Third Princess must not be as innocent as she said. She was just using the male madams as a shield.
Feeling the ambiguous gazes from all around, Baili Wuyou tightened his hands hidden in his sleeves, lowered his eyes to hide the flickering in his vision, and continued to greet Baili Wuyou with a smile:
"Sister Princess, what do you want me to do to convince you that I'm innocent?"
"Why should I believe you?"
Baili Wuyou didn't play by the rules at all. When he thought the other party would continue to make trouble on this matter, he pointed at Ye Xincheng who was lying on the ground:
"Well, since you said you just wanted to hear him sing, why not let him sing for you right now?
By the way, I want to listen too!"
Baili Wulü: “…”
Everyone else: "·······"
No one could figure out what Baili Wuyou was trying to do, but no one dared to openly disobey her.
The male madam immediately fed Ye Xincheng the antidote, placed the guqin that he treasured like a treasure in front of him, and warned Ye Xincheng in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"If you don't play for these two gentlemen, I'll immediately have the man in the backyard who tried to save you killed!"
Hearing this, Ye Xincheng's face turned pale again, but he forced himself to calm down, put his hands on the strings and started playing.
His fingertips danced lightly on the guqin, and the sound of the strings lingered out, like a clear mountain spring flowing over bluestone, crisp, ethereal and with a simple and ancient charm.
In a flash, a low voice began to chant, like the evening drum and morning bell echoing in an ancient temple, mellow and long. The sound of the piano and the chanting were intertwined, like a slowly unfolding scroll of ancient rhyme, which was intoxicating.
Everyone at the scene, including Baili Wuyou, was amazed by Ye Xincheng's piano playing and voice, and was unconsciously addicted to it.
When the song ended, Baili Wuyou was the first to applaud. She smiled and walked towards Ye Xincheng step by step, stopping one step away from him:
“The piano sounds good, and the singing is even better.
I want to redeem you, are you willing to go with me?"
As soon as these words came out, Baili Wuyou, who had always been smiling, changed his expression for the first time:
"My dear Princess, he is just a slave and a singer. His mother was beheaded for the crime of blasphemy. All the women of the Ye family were exiled to the border, and all the men were enslaved.
If I were to enter your princess's residence, I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate, right?
If the Queen Mother knew about this, I'm afraid..."
"I am doing something, and it is your turn to judge whether it is appropriate or not?"
Baili Wuyou thought of something and turned his head suddenly:
"You can redeem him, but if it comes to money, you definitely can't beat me.
How about this, let’s just follow the market price and no one should engage in vicious competition and raise the price.
Our royal family's money cannot be given away to these pimps in Fengyue Tower.
He can follow whoever he wants, what do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Baili Wuyou's eyes lit up for a moment, almost imperceptibly, and then quickly returned to normal.
Before the Ye family was convicted, she had private dealings with Ye Xincheng, and she was very sure that Ye Xincheng actually had some feelings for her.
It was just that when the Ye family was convicted, Ye Xincheng went to her for help but she avoided him, which chilled Ye Xincheng's heart. That's why he would rather be demoted to slavery along with all the men in the Ye family than to fake his death as she planned and become her mistress.
Now that he has seen the methods of Fengyue Tower, he believes that he wants to leave this worldly place more than ever.
So after Baili Wuyou proposed this suggestion, he hesitated for a while before reluctantly saying:
"it is good."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Ye Xincheng intently, as if she had a thousand words to say:
"Master Ye, the madam just misunderstood my intention. I know that you are an excellent musician and your voice is like the sound of nature. I really just wanted to invite you to come to my side room to play and sing.
I want to apologize to you for causing you so much injustice.
If you are willing, I will set you free even at the risk of being offended by the Queen Mother."
What she meant was to give Ye Xincheng back his freedom, not to ask him to continue singing and playing the guitar.
And the look in Ye Xincheng's eyes was so tender that it was almost silky.
Baili Wuyou didn't believe that even after being given such a way out, Ye Xincheng would still not back down?
