Douluo's Uchiha itachi

Chapter 181 Xue Qinghe? ? ?
When we met again, he was playing the piano in the practice room, and he looked at him quietly, as if he would play the piano in the practice room every day. — Xueqinghe
...............................

In the room full of people, there were all kinds of noises and singing, but his voice did reach my ears.It wasn't a very loud voice, but the singing voice that should be the chorus, not the main theme, sounded so clear.

Lu Jun and Itachi made an appointment at the ballroom, but Lu Jun didn't leave a message saying that he would be late, so Itachi had to wait here alone.When I hear the singing, it is such a moment of leisure and panic.

It's really a beautiful song.In the entire Yuexuan, there are too many students who have good singing voices to mention.But among these singing voices, the voice that can emphasize its own sense of existence really makes Itachi feel a little interested.Also, the identity of the owner of this voice is unusual.

From the time he started singing to the end of the song, Itachi couldn't take his eyes off the center of the dance hall.Then it was the same, and it always has been.

He is the one who dominates the entire room.After singing the song, one of his actions led to the actions of everyone around him.The person who prepared his drink, secretly wanted to ask her how she thought the song was sung just now, and the person who was watching him secretly, and the person sitting in front of the piano was trying to find out what he was going to sing next.

He gives hope fairly to all people.Smiling at some people, and taking glasses from some individuals, his attitude is so elegant and calm, maybe he is so approachable to everyone, without a trace of aristocratic airs!

[If everyone is not tired, how about singing another song? ]
As a matter of course, he accepted the voice of the majority and came up with a famous song.The person who played the piano proudly told him that of course she could play, although she stopped the classmate who was going to get the score with a reddish face.Even if there is no conductor, everyone is looking at him intently, waiting for his signal of nodding lightly, and the music starts again.

Xueqinghe.

Itachi knew his name and appearance. He was the eldest son of Emperor Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire. Among the vocal music students who were once regarded as promising future students, he was the most famous one, and he was also the most promising to succeed Xue Ye. A person in the position of the Great Emperor.Since seeing him in Yuexuan that day, he seems to come to Yuexuan often to communicate with the nobles here. I don't know if it is an illusion, but Itachi feels that his eyes are always looking at him intentionally or unconsciously.But feelings are feelings after all, other than that, Itachi knows nothing about him, even hearing his singing for the first time today.

The crowd gradually dispersed, Itachi leaned against the deserted dance hall wall and thought.

Lu Jun is still in the future, and he will not be late as promised.

Sitting down in a nearby chair, his singing came to mind.The singing is indeed beautiful, but it's not just that.The sound quality, volume, and level are all very accurate, not only faithfully expressing the singing style of music marks, the cadence of the voice, and the emotions contained in it. Although he is a man, for some reason, he always feels too sharp.

Even though Itachi is not an expert in singing, he has dabbled in it and thinks all of it is great. Xue Qinghe's singing voice is indeed beautiful, no wonder he is so gentle and humble.

Therefore, Itachi felt that it was more than that.If you want to talk about technical and superficial perfection, if you just look around in this academy, there must be students with the same level as him.Just like him who just learned to play, he simply imitated it to perfection.But he is different. When he is singing, he will not think of other things at all, and will only stare at his happy singing side face.

The aftertaste of the music slowly dissipated, and the pianist cautiously lifted his foot off the pedal—with that light touch against the wood, something changed.Maybe it was the itachi looking at him that changed.If not, there should be some kind of change in Xue Qinghe himself.

So, what has changed?Itachi had no answer to answer his own question.Of course, this change has nothing to do with Itachi's feeling that he is different from other singers.

It's just that his happy singing face is clearly imprinted in Itachi's heart.On the contrary, when he sang the song and chatted and laughed happily with others, Itachi immediately forgot.

Therefore, he is really a talent of an emperor, Itachi thinks so, maybe the Heaven Dou Empire can be carried forward in his hands in the future!
Interrupting this speculation, or just a delusional thinking, Itachi looked at the time and then looked out the window.Itachi was about to leave the room anyway, the door seemed to be deliberately opened by chance.

[Ah, are you going back? ] A gentle and friendly voice - the singing voice I heard just now, just like this rang in my ears.

[Your Highness, I'm waiting for someone, but the other party doesn't seem to be here. ] Itachi shook his head!
[Hmm, so that's the case. ]
Xue Qinghe nodded in understanding, just this kind of movement is enough to form a painting, it turns out that he is not just that handsome face, if Xue Qinghe is a woman, there must be many men who like it!

[Because you didn't participate in the ensemble, I was thinking it should be like this. ]
[I prefer to play alone. ]
Although Itachi didn't adjust deliberately, his tone became polite and polite naturally.When talking to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of a country, he would always remind himself to use polite words, but unlike before, Itachi realized that he blurted out so naturally after he finished speaking.

[Itachi, I saw your performance that day. You play the piano very well. If you can cooperate with me, it will definitely be beautiful. ]
[I'm not as good at playing, it doesn't hinder you guys who are actually better. ] Itachi doesn't want to have anything to do with this easy-going prince for the time being.

[But I think your piano sound is very beautiful! ]
[It's a pity, I'm not being modest. ] Itachi said modestly.

[If you want, would you like to play with me once?Anytime is fine. ]
The words of refusal were still hesitating in his throat, Xue Qinghe continued.

[Ah... By the way, I want to confirm first, you don't have a partner yet, do you? ]
Facing this question, Itachi shook his head, it seemed that after the death of Back Duofen, he never played with anyone again.

[Very good.In fact, our Heaven Dou Empire will hold a ball among nobles in the palace in a few days, I hope you can be my partner. ] His outstretched hand hung gently in the air, but it was not as soft as imagined.

"If I'm free, I'll go!"

"That's it! Then I look forward to your arrival."

In fact, a day later, I don’t know if it was a coincidence or Xueqinghe did it on purpose. In short, Itachi and Xueqinghe met in the corridor. Xueqinghe went straight to the point and asked Itachi if he was free now, and Itachi couldn’t refuse, so we made an appointment Meet in the practice room.It doesn't sound like polite words to want to play together.

[Choose a song we both know, is that okay? ]
[That's troublesome. ]
In fact, Itachi also wants to play with Xue Qinghe in his heart, because he is also a person who really loves music, which is why he can reach this level in this field.

So why am I here?Just looking for someone to play with.

[Don't be so nervous, it's okay. ] Itachi seemed to see a hint of embarrassment from Xue Qinghe, who had always been calm.

Although his mood was seen through, he was not angry at all. [Do you know how I feel?Although you are so humble, I feel that my singing is not worthy of your piano. ]
[Um.But let's play together happily, just want to simply practice music. ]
Itachi couldn't escape, and he didn't bluff. Unexpectedly, this singing genius would feel that he didn't deserve his piano sound. Itachi quietly put his fingers on the keyboard of the piano.

This is a piece that Teacher Duofen has practiced countless times by himself, and Itachi's fingers are swimming dexterously.Compared to what was heard in the corner back then, his voice now is clearer and brighter.In the past, fingers were always desperately chasing notes on the keyboard, but today they are so calm and unhurried.Itachi raised his head and saw Xue Qinghe singing happily, his face was so close.His expression seemed to be from the bottom of his heart, and he was singing with joy.

Then, just before his singing gradually calmed down, and the piano was about to finish the lingering chorus, Itachi looked at Xue Qinghe intently.

but--

[What's wrong?Ferret? ]
Nothing has changed, exactly the same as when he sang—or even, before he sang—he still had the kind smile on his face that sang about life.

"How do you feel about your singing voice now?"

[Um! ] As expected of the prince of a country, he seemed to have guessed this question a long time ago, his voice sounded so calm, his tone was gentle, and he nodded slowly.Behind the kind and considerate smile, he should tell himself the truth, not any polite words.Although he didn't know what he would say, Itachi wanted to know his answer.

[Hmm... But, I think it's great to be able to play with you like this. ]
Such a gentle man with such a beautiful singing voice is fascinating.

"Actually, your singing voice is very good! It's the best I've ever heard among nobles!"

[Really?Let's play it again. ] As if to divert the topic, he left immediately after saying this, and when he came back, he held a sheet of music in his hand.

[You like my singing voice?Then play my tune together. ]
[I don't care! ]
[It may be rude to say this, music is very important to me, so I can't compromise, but maybe I won't have the opportunity to immerse myself in music like this in the future. ]
"Are you going to handle state affairs? I think you will be a good emperor!"

"Really?" Xue Qinghe lowered his head.

[However, let's play together now! ]
[um, yes. ]
....................................

The sky outside the window had completely darkened, and now only Itachi and Xue Qinghe were left in the practice room where people were coming and going.

[Shall we have dinner together? ]
After the ensemble, Xue Qinghe finally opened his mouth to invite Itachi to his room.

This was the first time Itachi went to a friend's room. He originally thought that the Prince's room would be a very luxurious room, but he didn't expect to see such a quiet room.

The faint fragrance of sandalwood filled the side, and the hollow carved tallow window was filled with specks of fine sunlight. After looking carefully, there was a soft wooden bed under the body, which was decorated with exquisite carvings. A brocade quilt, a guqin standing in the corner, and a bronze mirror on a wooden platform, the whole room is so fresh and relaxing.

[It doesn't look like the prince's room, um, sorry. ] In fact, there is a saying Itachi did not say, that is: how does it feel a bit like a woman's room.

[Hmm... no, there is no such thing. ]
The chair that Xue Qinghe asked Itachi to sit on didn't have a cushion, but it was soft and comfortable.

[Then I'm going to cook. ]
[……OK. ]
To be honest, Itachi was really surprised, His Royal Highness cooks the meal himself?
[You can also play the piano if you want, but the lyre in my room has been handed down from a long time ago. ]
As a result, Itachi didn't play the piano. After all, this is the prince's room. Until he brought the dishes he had prepared, Itachi could only sit motionless on the chair.

The dishes served on the table were much more luxurious than Itachi imagined.

It is said that he had learned from the cooks in the palace, so he made it completely according to the dishes there.The taste is really nothing to say, but the moment of tasting is not pleasant.

[Just wash the dishes afterward.By the way, if you can, let's play together. ]
[...You really like singing. ]
[Well, I like it very much. ]
He put two cups of herbal tea on the table, and took out the music score from the bookshelf.The misty teacup carries the rich aroma of flowers and plants.

[Won't you laugh at me? ]
[... What are you laughing at? ]
Laughing to himself, he murmured hesitantly, [I... When I was young, I actually wanted to be a musician, a nobleman like Yuexuan's Master Tang Yuehuaxuan!But I have a mission that I have to complete, and I can't tolerate my temper. ]
"It's good to be yourself! Besides, after you become the emperor, you will also practice music."

"um. Thank you!"

Although he had no intention of practicing at all, Itachi subconsciously played the piano.What can I do for him?It seems that Xue Qinghe is also a poor person, is this the sorrow of being a royal family?
But what Itachi didn't know was that there was another reason for Xue Qinghe's troubles.

It's late at night, I didn't expect this bomb to be overnight.

[At the beginning you said that playing the lyre would be difficult for the first time, but then your fingers gradually caught up with the beat. ]
[...Sorry, I didn't play it very well. ]
[Everyone is like this at the beginning. ]
Itachi sat in front of the lyre, reached out to pick up the cold herbal tea, and accepted these polite words.

[Itachi... you...]
[Um? ]
[Can I trust you? ]
Xue Qinghe gently sat down beside the bed.

This is not at all like the usual Itachi, who can't help but say the words from the bottom of his heart, because Xue Qinghe has become emotional.

[Well, trust me. ] Itachi patted Xue Qinghe's shoulder lightly, and leaned close to his face...

But his hand didn't reach out.Instead, it was his white wrists like a woman's, stroking the pendant on his hand.

[that is? ]
[what? ]
[That pendant? ]
On his hand was a pendant that had turned red and black due to oxidation. He had always carried it on his hand, and now he was touching it cherishingly.

[This...] As he spoke, he brought the pendant up to my sight.It's not clear from the color, but it should be in the shape of a similar feather.

[It's the only thing I've been wearing since I was born, it's supposed to be a beautiful silver, and it's getting so dirty since I've been wearing it. ]
I found his tone softened naturally.

[But I won't take it down, because these are the wings on which I can fly. ] With that said, he gripped the wing even harder.

[The wings are a bit dirty, but they are very suitable for you. Only through setbacks can people become strong. ]
The road he walked bumps.During this process, the wings were indeed dirty due to the dirt, but the pair of wings did not lose their strength at all.

[Very beautiful words. ]
[Didn't I mention it to you?My aunt taught me a lot of knowledge. ]
He suddenly looked away and murmured, [I want to live a good life as an ordinary person? ]
[… But the royal family, my name, does not allow me to do this. ]
[Yeah... there is always such a thing. ] Itachi stood up and shook his head slightly.

"So I hate my mother, why did she give birth to me, I hate her!"

Looking at Xue Qinghe who revealed his true feelings in front of him, Itachi was also very surprised. He didn't expect such a scene to happen to the gentle Prince.

"It's still the same sentence, just be yourself. You don't live for others, but for yourself. You hate your mother, but she loves you. No matter how you say it, blood is thicker than water, maybe One day, you will regret your choice today, when she leaves you!"

"Haha, is that so? Maybe you're right! Thank you, Itachi!" Xue Qinghe seemed to have figured out something!A figure flashed in his mind, it was a woman with unquestionable majesty, if Itachi could see it, she would be very surprised, isn't this person Pope Bibi Dong?
Immediately, the bottleneck on Xue Qinghe's body suddenly shattered as if due to a change in mood.

A pair of blue butterfly wings spread out in an instant, and the colors of the two ends of the forewings are constantly changing from dark blue, azure blue, and light blue. The entire wing surface is like a blue sky inlaid with a series of bright halos, forming a V shape, bringing light to the world.Its shape, its colours, are of incomparable and impeccable beauty.

"Ah—" The sudden appearance of such gorgeous wings is too shocking, Itachi exclaimed.

Those wings are so beautiful, the entire surface of the wings is like white waves rising from the blue sea, its color and pattern are very spectacular, purple-blue in color, and the entire surface of the wings is like a string of bright waves inlaid in the blue sky The halo is sometimes dark blue, sometimes azure blue, and sometimes light blue. The white Manchu script on the wings is like jewels inlaid on it, shining brilliantly and very charming.

Even though the wings were just illusory light and shadow, under the moonlight, everyone felt dazzled and fascinated.

It was hard to imagine that a man possessed such a beautiful martial spirit.But the six soul rings that appeared immediately were shocking, all of which were the best soul ring configurations. In fact, the soul rings are not the point, the point is Xue Qinghe's age, he is only 20 years old, he did not expect the soul power to reach seven Tenth level, only one soul ring is missing, he can become a master of the soul saint level, and the soul saint can also be said to be a master.

"Your Highness, you..." Itachi was indeed a little surprised. At this age, not many of them even the Shrek Eight Monsters could reach the level of Soul Sage.

"Surprised, isn't it? But you said you could believe it!"

"Yeah!" Itachi nodded.

"I know that if the strength is not strong enough, everything is useless, so..."

"I know, we are brothers now, I won't tell others!" Itachi put his hand on Xue Qinghe's shoulder.

Itachi patted Xue Qinghe very naturally, in his opinion, isn't it normal for friends to be like this?However, when he really patted Xue Qinghe's shoulder, the feeling changed a bit.

He suddenly remembered that this was the first time they had such close contact, and they had only known each other for a few days.

Originally, he thought that since everyone was a soul master and practiced hard every day in terms of physical fitness and soul power, Xue Qinghe's body should be like his, with strong muscles.

But when he really met Xue Qinghe, it was completely different from what he had imagined.Although Xue Qinghe's body is very elastic, it is very soft, and there is a feeling of softness without bones.And he has a faint fragrance on his body.The two were about the same height, and Xue Qinghe's smooth face directly touched Itachi's, giving him a strange feeling.

Xue Qinghe's body tensed up subconsciously, and his whole body seemed to have entered a special state of stiffness.

Unconsciously snorted softly, wanting to refuse, but finally held back, pursed his mouth tightly, it looked like he had been wronged so much.

....................................

"Itachi, it's so late, why don't you leave?"

"Your Highness, it's so late, I'll just sleep here with you!"

"Ah? No, you can't sleep here!"

"Okay! Then I'll go back!" Itachi didn't force it, and left Xue Qinghe's room.

And after Itachi left, in Xue Qinghe's room.

Under the moonlight, a lock of beautiful black hair falls down like a waterfall, with curved willow eyebrows, a pair of bright eyes, a straight Qiong nose, slightly flushed pink cheeks, dripping cherry lips, and a flower-like oval face Crystal clear as jade, tender and smooth skin like ice and snow, beautiful figure, charming and affectionate.

"What a fool!"
