Chapter 143: Frankness under the Moonlight

moonlit night.

Not only Tianxuan, but also Yanfei and other women were not very confident about Li Kai, the governor of Nanyang County who had served as the right Sima of the Han army and was a brother-in-law of Han Wangan. However, Li Kai seemed to have no second thoughts and settled Tianxuan and his subordinates properly. Three thousand cavalrymen were left outside Wancheng in a military camp built overnight.

Only Tian Xuan and the four girls of Yin Yang Family, who were skilled in art and brave, entered Wan City and rested in Li Kai's residence. The banquet for them, although not as good as the delicacies from the mountains and the sea, was not bad. Most importantly, the four girls of Yin Yang Family did not detect any poison in the wine and food.

After the banquet, Tianxuan took a comfortable bath in the guest room arranged by Li Kai, changed into clean clothes, left the room, and strolled in Li Kai's mansion, which was not luxurious but had all the necessary facilities.

A half-moon wrapped in hazy moonlight hangs high in the night sky, intertwining with the sparse and lonely stars in winter, adding a hazy beauty between heaven and earth.

Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!

Walking in a deep corridor, on both sides of the corridor, the flowers withered and the green leaves withered. Suddenly, the clear and pleasant sound of the piano broke through the hazy night mist between heaven and earth and entered Tianxuan's ears. Every note was like the sound of a clear spring, dispelling the weariness lingering in Tianxuan's heart and making his mind empty.

Immediately, driven by curiosity, Tianxuan took a step towards the direction where the sound of the piano came from.

As Tianxuan continued to move towards the source of the piano sound, the notes he heard became coherent and orderly. The notes gathered together, as if to depict a picture of a bright moon and silence. In this picture, there was no fighting, no intrigue, only tranquility and peace, and a hint of grievances.

Finally, after passing through the stacked buildings, Tianxuan arrived at the backyard of the mansion, where Li Kai and his family lived. An elegant and quiet two-story building with dancing gauze came into Tianxuan's sight. The night was deep, but the lights in the attic were not extinguished, outlining a graceful and graceful figure, projected on the thin white gauze.

【Tonight, the moon is over Fuzhou, and I am alone in my room. I pity my children, who do not know how to remember Chang'an. The mist wets my hair, and the light makes my arms cold. When will I lean against the window and let the light dry my tears?】

This scene and situation suddenly reminded Tianxuan of the poem "Moonlit Night" by the great poet Du Fu.

[The person in the attic is most likely the Zi Lan Xuan’s number one zither player—Nong Yu! ]

While feeling emotional, Tianxuan suddenly realized the identity of the person playing the piano.

"General Tian, ​​how is it?" Suddenly, Li Kai's steady voice sounded in Tian Xuan's ears. Tian Xuan turned his head slightly and saw Li Kai appear beside him, with a face full of pride from the bottom of his heart, "How is my daughter's piano skill?"

Tian Xuan said calmly: "I'm sorry, I don't know much about music. I can only say that your daughter plays the piano very well!"

"is it?"

Upon learning that Tianxuan had no knowledge of music, Li Kai, who was trying to show off, showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"father."

Nongyu, who was expressing her sorrow with music, just finished the song. Noticing the arrival of others, she left the attic gracefully. A gorgeous woman with a delicate body fragrance, as elegant as an orchid in a valley, even in this cold winter, still wearing a plain long skirt, with ten slender jade fingers like spring onions, standing in the dark night, her own brilliance seemed to be able to tear through the darkness, came in front of Tianxuan and Li Kai.

Nanyue!

Looking at Li Kai, besides the admiration of a child for his parents, there was also a hint of coldness in Nongyu's eyes. She nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.

"Nongyu," Li Kai certainly knew where his daughter's resentment towards him came from, and helplessly, he introduced her to her, "This is my Great Qin's newcomer - General Tian." At this time, Nongyu's attention shifted to Tianxuan. When two gentle eyes swept over Tianxuan, the originally calm eyes trembled.

[Why…is this person so…why…?]

Nanyue's calm heart was stirred up by turbulent waves. Fortunately, she was separated from her parents when she was young. On the surface, she was a zither girl, but in fact, she was raised as a female killer. Although her heart was in turmoil, her beautiful face remained indifferent, except for a gleam in her beautiful eyes.

"Hello, Miss Nanyue!"

"Dad, what do you want to talk about with General Tian?"

After suppressing the ups and downs in her heart, Nanyue did not leave immediately. She stood to one side, acting as if she wanted to listen as well.

"Okay!" Faced with his daughter's insistence, Li Kai, who felt he owed his beloved daughter, agreed with a wry smile.

Tian Xuan winked at the attic several feet away and said, "Master Li Kai, this is not the place to talk. Let's go talk there!"

"it is good!"

Wow!
When Tian Xuan and Li Kai and his daughter arrived at the second-floor attic, a scene that made Li Kai and his daughter's faces change drastically appeared in front of them.

Nanyue was absolutely sure that when she left the attic, it was empty. But in just a short while, two graceful figures appeared in the attic.

One of them was wearing a deep blue Jinwu Hua skirt, with her jet-black hair simply tied up; the other one had her long purple hair tied up, a plain skirt wrapped around her body, and a thin, almost transparent eye shadow placed on a complicated hairpin.

Yan Fei, the Moon Goddess!
When Li Kai and his daughter cast their horrified eyes over, Yan Fei leisurely picked up the teapot on the table and gestured to Tian Xuan. Tian Xuan stepped forward with a helpless look on his face, took the teapot from Yan Fei's hand, and poured a cup of tea for her and Yue Shen respectively. The clear tea swirled and filled the teacup, and it was particularly loud in this small space.

The sound that rang in their ears woke up Li Kai and his daughter.

"Master Li Kai," Tian Xuan poured tea for Yan Fei and Yue Shen, and then poured himself a cup of tea. His expression was calm, but the first thing he said was earth-shattering, "Just tell me, what bargaining chip did Han Wangan offer to bribe you?"

"Let my daughter, Nong Yu, become the Crown Princess of Korea. In the future, my grandson will inherit the throne of Korea!" When Tian Xuan revealed this, Li Kai smiled bitterly and slowly but firmly stated the conditions offered to him by the envoy of King Han An.

I have to say that this condition is extremely generous.

Li Kai and his wife, Madam Hu, were deeply in love. Although Madam Hu did not give birth to a son for him, she only had a long-lost daughter, Nongyu. However, Li Kai never took a concubine and was quite interested in taking a concubine. If Nongyu became the Crown Princess of Korea, then Li Kai, who was considered a traitor by Koreans, would become a popular and powerful person in Korea, and there would be no fear of being abandoned after his death!

"If I remember correctly," Tian Xuan digested Li Kai's words silently for a moment and took a sip of tea, "Han Wangan's prince is dead. Before the demise of Han, Han Wangan did not appoint another prince!"

"That's true," Nong Yu sneered and continued, "But, in order to win my father's support, the tyrant King Han An hinted that as long as I was willing to marry one of his sons, that son could be made the crown prince!"
