Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

Chapter 128: They are both legitimate daughters, why is their fate so unfair?

Shen Yuqing's whole body was extremely stiff, and the handkerchief in her hand was torn to pieces, with the embroidery completely destroyed. The smile on her face was long gone, and her heart was filled with surging emotions.

She was so lucky that she actually found "Eighteen Beats of the Hujia"?! No, this must be fake, it's definitely not the real "Eighteen Beats of the Hujia"!

She was so unwilling to accept it. Why did all the good luck belong to her, while her mother died early and she had to live under someone else's roof and had to work hard to plan everything? She was the daughter of the first wife, so why was her fate so unfair!

Mu Qingli had also finished playing at this time. She raised her bare hands and pressed the restless strings directly, then let out a long breath as if relieved of a heavy burden.

At this moment, probably everyone in the palace thought that she was trying to defeat Princess Liyin from the Dongyi Kingdom, but only she knew that she just wanted to use this opportunity to vent all the hatred and resentment that had been hidden in her heart for too long.

When she heard the voice, she just looked up calmly, and suddenly met a clear and gentle smiling face. Those eyes were always affectionate and affectionate when looking at you, as if you were his whole world.

Mu Qingli calmly lowered his eyes to hide the disgust that was about to surge out of his eyes. He stood up and made room for the emperor and empress above him, then turned around and prepared to return to his mother.

Lu Tingqi imagined countless ways she would look when she saw him, whether it was disgust, disdain, shyness or restraint, but he never expected that when she looked at him, it was as if she didn't see him. There was no trace of him in those beautiful and deep eyes.

Apart from anything else, his interest was immediately aroused, but he couldn't say much at this time. He could only smile and then put down the hand that had just led the applause.

The Grand Master of Music was so excited that his beard was almost pulled off, but he didn't feel any pain. He didn't even wait for the emperor to express his opinion and just called out to the man to stop.

"Ms. Mu...Miss Mu, may I ask if what you just played was really 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia'? Was it really 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia'?"

Could this thing be fake? This is a famous song, who would dare to forge it?

Mu Qingli couldn't help but grin, and thought for a moment before answering him, his words being rather cautious.

"This 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia' is an ancient music piece I came across by chance. I personally believe it is the lost volume of the ancient music 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia'.

But I've never heard a real piece of music like this before, so I'm not sure. It was just that I suddenly remembered this piece during our discussion just now, so I played it casually. If I'm being disrespectful, please forgive me, Grand Master of Music."

Da Si Le immediately stroked his beard excitedly, trying hard to hide the smugness and pride on his face, and even cleared his throat before speaking.

"Ahem, it's natural that you haven't heard of it since you're still young, but I have. That was when I was full of vigor and vitality. Your Majesty, you should have heard of it before. I wonder if you still remember it?

I think this is the lost 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia'! It's a great joy to have this ancient piece of music recovered! I, this old minister, am so happy."

The ministers sitting next to him looked at the emperor and immediately laughed and teased him.

"That's right, Your Majesty, you see he almost doesn't know what to say. You spoke before Your Majesty even said anything."

"I'm afraid there aren't many people in this palace who have ever heard the entire piece. Your Majesty is truly the most fortunate. It's a rare opportunity to host a palace banquet, yet you've even managed to find the authentic 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia.' Long live Your Majesty!"

As a result of their flattery, the emperor's unhappy expression suddenly turned from gloomy to cheerful, and he smiled happily, touching his chin.

"This is indeed the complete 'Eighteen Beats of the Hujia'. I was fortunate enough to listen to it in the past. Unfortunately, during the turmoil in Dayan, we lost a lot of valuable things. This is indeed a happy event.

I know that the Grand Master of Music is obsessed with music. If Miss Mu doesn't mind, you can borrow it from her after the banquet. The Mu family's daughter has done a great service in retrieving the ancient music. Come, I will reward you with a hundred pieces of pearl and jade jewelry."

No one dared to refuse the emperor's reward. Xu Han accepted it with a smile, then raised his hand to the eunuch beside him and signaled him to do it quickly.

He was the chief eunuch beside the emperor, so naturally he was in charge of a large number of palace servants, and not everything required him to run errands personally.

Mu Qingli paused, then turned around and bowed to thank the emperor for his reward.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward."

Qiu Jin stood quietly with her eyes lowered, but the corners of her lips were slightly raised.

Just a hundred pieces of jewelry to send beggars away? Fortunately, their goal today is not here.

Lu Jinnian leaned against the wall and watched the movements here blatantly in the shadows, his narrow eyes full of dark light.

He didn't expect that the wife he wanted to marry in the future would be so capable. The couple were both very cunning. Their life in Beijing would be very interesting in the future.

Wen Ya had just clapped her hands until they were almost red. Her little face was so excited that she stared at Mu Qingli.

I really didn't expect that Sister Li was so amazing. She could find an ancient song that had been lost for many years and play it so well. She didn't have many sad things to do, but after hearing this, she almost cried until her eyes were swollen.

"Don't cry anymore, it would be embarrassing if your makeup gets ruined. Don't you like Miss Mu? We can get to know each other more often in the future."

Wen Xiu unnoticeably took out a handkerchief and pressed the corners of his eyes, then raised his hand to wipe his younger sister's face, reminding her in a somewhat helpless tone.

This lady from the Mu family is quite capable and has a good personality. Even though she is a bit straightforward, she is not annoying. She always looks better than those noble ladies who make mistakes nine out of ten words. With my personality, I might be able to learn some skills from her if I interact with her more often.

When this was said, Wen Ya became more energetic and nodded seriously, her eyes shining.

"Yeah, I'll send Sister Li a message tomorrow to invite her to come over to my house."

Shentu Chi narrowed his eyes as he stared at the girl who was sitting calmly not far away, and spoke with some surprise and curiosity.

"I didn't expect that there are such masters of zither art in your country. This really opened my eyes. I wonder who this girl is?"

The Empress glanced at Mu Qingli and then smiled as she explained her identity. "This is the beloved daughter of Mu Yuan, the great general of our Great Yan Kingdom. Lord Mu is busy guarding the border and I'm afraid he won't be back until the New Year."

Concubine An still remembered what happened last time and giggled with her hands covering her mouth.

"That's right. Miss Mu is just like her father, she has a straightforward temper. She just returned to Beijing not long ago, but unfortunately she doesn't get along well with the girls in Beijing. I don't know what's going on."

Shentu Chi didn't interrupt and just listened happily, hiding the gleam in his eyes.

He hoped that the people of Dayan would fight among themselves, and it would be best if they fought to the death! That way, their country could take advantage of the situation and gain some benefits!
