Guqin becomes a beauty

Chapter 8 Minister Ling

Rong Zun and Hao Zhong returned to the piano shop, Cheng Lian and Lu Qi hurriedly surrounded them.Cheng Lian was so worried that he couldn't sleep all day. They stayed in another time and space for several months, but only a week passed here. He carefully observed Rong Zun, "Master, are you still used to it? Didn't suffer?"

Rong Zun thought about it for a while, and found that he was living a good life - except for the place where Gao Xi provided, the rest seemed to be the credit of that black-faced general?

Just when Cheng Lian was about to make a big meal to give them a good welcome, Xiao Xu from the Ministry of National Legacy suddenly came to visit again. He ran in a hurry, and when he saw Rong Zun, he didn't have time to greet him, so he said, "Master Rong, Our minister just came back with a look of anger on his face! Roll call asked you to report to him tomorrow!"

Rong Zun froze for a moment, then remembered the minister's name, "Ling Xingwei?"

"Yes...it's Minister Ling." Xiao Xu took a sip of the water handed by Luqi, then he took a breath, and looked at Rong Zun with some doubts, "Minister seems very angry for some reason. I told you to go over now, but I changed my mind somehow. Master Rong, I will see the minister tomorrow, please be more tolerant. Although he is a bit cold on weekdays, he is not a person who loses his temper casually. It is probably due to the progress of work outside. It didn't go well..."

"I see." Rong Zun nodded thoughtfully.

Luqi asked him if he wanted to stay for dinner, and Xiao Xu saw Chenglian leaning against the door and looking at him with a look of "you go quickly", and waved his hands tactfully, "No, no, all the staff in the department will work overtime tonight. I have to hurry back, so I won't bother Mr. Rong and the two of you any more! Farewell."

Cheng Lian was so happy that he left quickly, and followed behind to close the door.When he came back, he saw Rong Zun frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about something, he couldn't help asking: "Master?"

Rong Zun raised his head, with hope in his clear deer eyes, "Cheng Lian, tell me, that minister is really Xing Wei?"

Cheng Lian didn't expect that he hadn't let go of this matter. He opened his mouth, and the corners of his eyes showed bitterness. He approached and explained patiently: "It's really not him, Master. No matter how much a person changes, he won't There is really no similarity. Although the former Xingwei didn't have a good face towards me... no, he didn't even bother to show his true face in front of me, but he was absolutely patient with you, and he could think about trivial things Thoughtful, but this Minister Ling is resolute and uncompromising. I also specifically asked about Minister Ling's preferences, and Xingwei likes to eat fish the most, but Minister Ling doesn't touch fish very much."

"That's because the water quality is too bad now! The fish is hard to swallow! I used to use the water from the Spirit Pond to raise fish for Xingwei. It's understandable that he can't get used to it..." Rong Zun couldn't help it Interrupt him and find a reason.

Cheng Lian sighed softly, but still ruthlessly dismissed his last thought, "But, master... how can you explain Minister Ling's phoenix body? His real phoenix body is the original form of the phoenix that he has seen in the department. There are more than one or two people, this cannot be fooled..."

Rong Zun's eyes widened, but dimmed little by little, he lowered his head and said softly: "Yes, under what circumstances can the original body be changed?... It would be great if Aunt Yu was here. She has read a lot of books, so she must know of……"

Cheng Lian looked at him, unable to speak any serious words, so he said softly: "Don't worry, won't you be able to see Minister Ling tomorrow? Maybe you will know then."

"But I can't remember, why can't I remember..." Rong Zun muttered to himself, turned around and walked towards the back room, and couldn't help but hammer his forehead with his hands, the strength of his hands seemed very strong Heavy.

Cheng Lian hurriedly ran to stop him, "Master! It's not your fault! Even if you can't remember Xingwei's face now, he must remember you. If it's really him, why would he bear to deny you?"

"You're right." Rong Zun suddenly understood, put down his hands and his eyes brightened, he smiled and looked at Cheng Liandao, "I haven't changed, as long as he can recognize me tomorrow."

"Hmm..." Cheng Lian didn't dare to look him in the eye, the corners of his mouth froze, trying to pull out a smile.

Lu Qi and Hao Zhong stood aside, although they didn't understand what they were talking about, but when they saw the appearance of the adult, they were uncomfortable and showed a worried look.

***

On the second day, Rong Zun woke up early without being called.Seeing Xiao Xu who came to pick him up, he humbly asked: "To see your minister, should I wear formal clothes like you or ordinary clothes?"

"Uh...it doesn't matter, our minister doesn't care too much about it, Mr. Rong, you can do as you like." Xiao Xu scratched his head and laughed.

Rong Zun nodded, and muttered in a low voice, "It's better to wear regular clothes, it will be bad if it changes too much and you can't recognize it."

When he came out again, Xiao Xu dropped his jaw in shock, stood up and looked at him and stammered, "Rong, Rongrong...Master Rong?!"

"En." Rong Zun's true face was fully revealed, and he came out wearing a complicated white robe, with a head of smooth black hair winding down, and a blue hair tie was lightly tied at the end.He slightly raised his hand and straightened his cuffs, and smiled at Xiao Xu, "I've already taken care of it, I can go."

Xiao Xu pressed his chin back with his hands. This is not the first time he has seen Rong Zun's real appearance. When Rong Zun was still sleeping, all the staff involved in the research and development were amazed at his beauty, but now it is the first time After seeing you again for many days, it still has the same impact as seeing you for the first time.

"Master Rong, please go this way." Xiao Xu led him into the car, and Cheng Lian also followed.When the car drove to the entrance of the National Heritage Department, Xiao Xu turned around and reminded Rong Zun, "My lord, there are still many ordinary people here, you'd better set up a barrier first."

"Okay." Rong Zun will still satisfy this small request, and with a wave of his hand, after opening the door, outsiders will not be able to see him and Cheng Lian.

Xiao Xu led them all the way to the minister's office on the 23rd floor, knocked on the door lightly, "Minister Ling, Mr. Rong and Mr. Cheng Lian are here."

After waiting for a while, a deep and pleasant voice came from inside, saying coldly, "Come in."

The man's voice is very mature, not the voice that has not been cleared in memory.But when they parted, Xingwei was still a half-grown child. After more than 2000 years, his voice might change when he grows up.

Rong Zun was not discouraged, took a light breath, and pushed open the door with a warm smile.

In the open and tidy interior, the man behind the desk slowly raised his head. His facial features are as sculpted as carved, and his facial features are delicate and delicate. He is a man with an unmistakable appearance.When he was not smiling, his thin lips were pursed with a trace of seriousness and indifference, and he looked at him with deep eyes, without saying a word.

Xiao Xu made a special observation, and felt that the minister's anger seemed to have disappeared yesterday, and he didn't intend to vent it on Mr. Rong, so he was relieved, and greeted with a smile: "My lord, you talk to the minister. I'll wait for you outside." He was about to back out when he was stopped by the man's deep voice.

"Hold on."

Xiao Xu stopped, "Minister?"

Ling Xingwei stretched out his hand and pointed at Chenglian, "Take this person out too."

Xiao Xu paused, looked at Cheng Lian, wondering: "Minister, this is Mr. Cheng Lian, the housekeeper's assistant specially summoned by Mr. Rong..."

It's okay not to mention it, but mentioning it ignited Ling Xingwei's fire again, and a sneer terrified everyone in the room.

Last night, he thoroughly researched all the information about Rong Zun in the department, and even called all the subordinates who knew about it to question him one by one.

With just one chance, this guy chose Chenglian?Is this the person he most wants to see?

Ling Xingwei clasped his hands and placed them on the table, his gaze was without a trace of warmth, making Xiao Xu feel hairy.

"I said, Lord Rong Zun, please come and report. How dare you talk back when you brought irrelevant people without authorization?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, Minister...I was wrong!" Xiao Xu Miao hesitated, and smiled at Cheng Lian awkwardly.

"Cheng Lian, go out and wait first." At this time, Rong Zun still spoke.

"Yes, Master." Cheng Lian was the most obedient, and he turned around and left.Xiao Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and followed him out, closing the door behind him.

Hearing the creaking sound of the door behind him, Rong Zun didn't move, his long eyelashes fluttered up and down, and he kept looking at the handsome man in front of him.

When he heard this person call out his name directly, he looked straight at him and opened his mouth and said, "I am Rong Zun."

Ling Xingwei raised his chin.

"Do you know me?"

Ling Xingwei's face was ashen, "I don't know."

"Oh." Rong lowered her head in disappointment.

Ling Xingwei's fingertips dug into the flesh.He already knew that there was a mistake in waking up Rong Zun, causing him to lose part of his memory—but he didn't expect that he was forgotten!

For a moment, he didn't know whether it was Rong Zun, the Ministry of National Science and Technology, or himself who should be angry!

"Your name...why is Xingwei?"

Just as he was gritting his teeth, Rong Zun's gentle voice sounded again, the word "Xingwei" stabbed him in pain, his handsome eyebrows frowned, "So what if you call Xingwei?"

"It's not a very common name..."

"The night is long and there is no sleep. Before starting the steps, there are only a few stars in the sky. In the past 15 years, on a moonlit night, I have never slept alone." Ling Xingwei's voice has a unique rhythm, like a beautiful Chen Zhong, and said slowly.

"What?" Rong Zun was slightly taken aback.

"The origin of my name."

Rong Zun was stunned, and said blankly: "Is there still such a saying?"

Before Xingwei asked about the origin of the name, why didn't I know how to explain it to him?I think back then that kid named himself too casually, and I was angry with him for a long time.

Seeing Rong Zun's remorseful appearance, Ling Xingwei's mouth hooked up quickly, and then returned to its original state in an instant.

"This poem is well written, but it was written by Minister Ling?" Rong Zun asked again.

"It's not me, the poet Bai Juyi."

"Who is Bai Juyi?"

Ling Xing didn't look at him, but turned his head, "Master Rong doesn't even know Bai Juyi, but he hasn't been to the basic skills training department under the Ministry of National Heritage?"

Rong Zun shook his body.He remembered that Xiao Xu had secretly told him that there was an urgent shortage of people in the Guqin department, and the minister was not here.After discussing with their colleagues, Rong Zun was not allowed to participate in the training, and he was told not to make a fuss, which would have a bad influence.

He felt that he had sold Xiao Xu and his colleagues just like this, and he felt a little sorry.He was also very afraid that Ling Xingwei would send him to study again. Seeing Cheng Lian's emaciated and vicissitudes when he came back, he didn't want to become like that.

Ling Xing didn't see through his thoughts, and chuckled, "Read more when you have time."

With his inexperienced appearance, he dares to take people back to ancient times?If it hadn't happened that he was also there, when Duke Huan was buried, both of them might not be able to enter the palace.

Although Rong Zun's common sense of history is a bit shallow, he didn't want to be regarded as illiterate, so he pursed his lips and said: "The artistic conception of your poem is quite beautiful, but it sounds a little too lonely." He muttered in a low voice He wrote, "In the past 15 years, on a bright moon night, have you never slept alone, 15 years..."

"..." Ling Xing didn't put away his smile, and his eyes gradually turned away, "It's only 15 years, so it's nothing."

It has been more than 2000 years since he left Penglai, how has he ever had a good night's sleep?

"Yeah, 15 years is indeed a flick of the finger. I used to have a piano called Xingwei, and we haven't seen each other for a long time." Rong Zun lowered his head, his voice was very soft, "When we didn't meet, I thought you might it's him……"

Ling Xingwei stared at him deeply for a long time, "Then why don't you try to summon him—you don't want him anymore?"

"I summoned you!" Rong Zun raised his head in displeasure, with a hint of complaint in his tone, "I wrote Xingwei, but the year wheel didn't move at all. Do you think it's broken? gone?"

The corner of Ling Xingwei's mouth twitched.Thinking that I was carrying out the task well, suddenly vomiting blood and not even having the strength to come back... It turns out that the culprit is here.

But after he learned that this person was not so unconscionable and completely forgot about himself, he felt much better.

The long separation, the monstrous anger... In the final analysis, they couldn't make up for him to appear in front of her again intact.

There was a trace of helplessness and discouragement in his tone, "Maybe, I'll take a look later for you."

"By the way! Xiao Xu said that you might help me find my piano?" Rong Zun looked at him expectantly.

"...Well." Ling Xingwei turned his eyes away uncomfortably, looked down at his watch, and stood up with a straight face, "It's getting late, I invite you to have lunch in the department cafeteria."

The author has something to say:

Note: "The night is long and there is no sleep. Before the stage rises, the starry river is about to dawn. In the past 15 years, on a moonlit night, there has never been a night without sleep alone." The "not alone sleep" in the original poem should be "not lonely sleep". ——"Two Songs of Solitary Sleep" Bai Juyi
