It has been a few days since Mr.
Shiba left.
In the past few days, I have also been obsessed with the music music brought by Mr.
Shiba.
I am practicing the flute on the lawn in the distance.
I have become 50% proficient in these days.
I believe practice makes perfect.
One more time By the end of the week, I should be able to blow it very easily.
"Sister Wang."
Xiaohai came over on horseback.
I turned around and saw someone following me.
I stood up and walked over, saw them dismounting, and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Sister Wang, Thirteenth Master sent someone to deliver a letter to you."
Xiao Hai.
Shu Qiao turned around and saw that the person coming forward was Luo Xinghai.
He handed over a letter, "Princess, this is a letter from the Thirteenth Master.
If the princess has no other instructions, I will go back first."
I took the letter and felt that what the letter said might be what I expected.
I just nodded and asked Luo Xinghai to leave without doing much to persuade him to stay.
"Xiaohai, go and send Xinghai away.
He is my friend."
I sent Xiaohai away on purpose.
I was afraid that if this letter was really what I thought, I would not be able to control myself.
I didn't want others to read it.
To me.
"Of course I want to give it to my sister's friend."
After Xiaohai said that, he turned around and left with Luo Xinghai.
Seeing that they had gone far away, I sat down, put down the flute in my hand, and then opened the envelope.
As expected, the content of the letter was the news that the Eighteenth Master had passed away.
"I have been holding this in my mind for several days.
I know it will come sooner or later.
Although I have been mentally prepared, the tears have to be saved after all."
I said secretly in my heart.
There was no one at the moment, so I could cry loudly.
Some people's destiny is determined, but their own destiny is not determined.
Maybe you are the only one who can control your own destiny.
With this idea, Shu Qiao feels that he will not be too panicked in this world.
Although they cannot control their own destiny, they can.
After crying, my eyes were swollen a lot.
I had no choice but to put some makeup on in front of the mirror to cover my face.
When I came to my father's tent, I saw my father sitting there alone reading a book.
I carried a bowl of milk and put it on my father's table: "Father, drink the hot milk first and take a rest."
Father took the bowl and took a sip, praising "it tastes good."
Father put down the bowl, looked at the powder on Shu Qiao's face and asked, "Why are you putting on makeup today?"
"I want to leave a good impression on my father."

Shu Qiao smiled.
"Why do you want to go out to play?"
Father.
Shu Qiao smiled bitterly: "The Eighteenth Master has passed away, and I share the same sympathy with him as brother and sister.
I want to go see him."
"Are you sure that the Eighteenth Master didn't have a good time last time when he came here?
It's only been ten days," the father said with a look of disbelief.
I just explained lightly: "It's a letter from Master Thirteen."
My father let out a long sigh and nodded: "Okay, it's time to go.
My father asked your eldest brother to arrange for someone to take you there."
"No, father, I just need to bring some money and ride away on horseback.
Brother Wang, Xueyi and Xiaohai, please tell me father.
I don't want to cry and say it to everyone."
Shu Joe.
Father patted Shu Qiao on the shoulder: "Okay.
Be careful on the road and send a letter to the capital."
"I know, kid."
Me.
The next day, I took my baggage and drove a horse away.
I didn’t delay anything on the way.
I just wanted to rush back to see the Eighteenth Master for the last time.
The emperor had already dethroned the crown prince in Burha Sutai.
Now everyone in the capital is talking about who the next crown prince will be.
The Eighth Master, the Fourteenth Master, the Ninth Master, and the Tenth Master were very happy to sit together.
Several people had already set up a small banquet at the Eighth Master's house to discuss.
"This time the second brother was deposed.
It must be just around the corner that the eighth brother will be established as the prince."
Master Jiu.
"It seems that the second brother brought it upon himself.
He was favored by Emperor Ama since childhood, but unexpectedly it made the second brother arrogant and arrogant.
This became the trigger for his being deposed today."
The Fourteenth Master.
The eighth master smiled and was very happy: "The emperor has always ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety, but the second brother ignored the death of the eighteenth brother and secretly went to the emperor to eavesdrop."
The eighth master said this and shook his head.
I also think the prince’s move is too stupid.
"But the eighteenth brother is really pitiful.
He has the life to go out, but he has no life to come back.
If Shu Qiao finds out, he will definitely be heartbroken."
The tenth master spoke bluntly, but the ninth master listened carefully.
Ba Ye immediately changed the subject: "Huang Ama has been ill recently.
At this time, we should do more filial piety in front of the bed.
In the past few days, we have taken turns to visit Huang Ama."
"Yeah."
Several other brothers agreed.
After traveling for more than half a month, I finally returned to the capital.

Since I was already engaged to the fourth master, I had no worries and went directly to the fourth master’s house.
When I saw the fourth master just walking out of the house, I ran forward.
Go and call: "Fourth Master."
Fourth Master and Si Fujin turned around and saw me dismounting, walked forward and saluted: "Four Master, Si Fujin, where are you going?"
The fourth master said: "Let's go and pay our respects to Emperor Ama.
I'll let my servants arrange for you to rest first."
I came back not to rest, but to visit the Eighteenth Master, so I don’t want to stay here alone.
After thinking for a moment, I opened my mouth and said, "I'll go with you too."
The fourth master also hesitated for a moment, and he probably understood what I was thinking, so he turned to Si Fujin and said, "Then you don't have to go to the palace today.
We'll go tomorrow."
"Yes."
Sifujin nodded.
The fourth master turned down Sifujin as a companion because of me.
He felt a little embarrassed about this, so he had to smile at Sifujin as a companion and express his apology.
When I came to the palace, I first came to visit the emperor.
The emperor did not refuse my greetings.
The fourth master and I were already sitting in front of the emperor.
The fourth master said: "Emperor Ama, Princess Shu Qiao knows about the eighteenth brother and wants to see the eighteenth brother."
"Princess, you are so thoughtful.
Let the Fourth take you to see the Eighteenth.
The Eighteenth misses you the most on weekdays.
If he knows that you are visiting him, he will definitely be very happy."
The emperor seemed to be unable to say what he said.
Although the Eighteenth Master seems to have a good relationship with Xueyi on the surface, even if I have changed back to Shu Qiao's identity, the Eighteenth Master seems to be closer to me, so even if the Emperor says something wrong, I can still Understood.
I don’t know how to comfort the Emperor about the death of the Eighteenth Master.
The so-called life and death are determined by fate, or the deceased is already dead.
It feels like standing and talking without backache.
At this moment, the Eighteenth Master I don't even want to use this tone when it comes to matters.
The only thing I can say is: "The Eighteenth Master should be happiest when he sees the Emperor taking good care of his body."
The emperor nodded.
Suddenly asked: "Can you master the flute music that Lao Shiba composed before?"
"Yes."
Shu Qiao.
"Why don't you play a song for me first?"
Your Majesty.
"Yes."
I have been practicing this piece of music hard for a long time, but I know that I don't have much time, no.
It should be said that Master Shiba's life is not long.
I just think that from the moment this happens, I will be able to play this song at my fingertips, and I will not live up to Master Shiba's gift of music. meaning.
Unexpectedly, now I am the first one to play it to the emperor.
Maybe the Eighteenth Master would like me to play this piece to his most beloved father.
The Thirteenth Master took out the flute he carried with him and handed it to Shu Qiao's hand.
At this time, a eunuch came forward and said, "For the record, Your Majesty, the Eighth Master and the Ninth Master are outside."
"Invite them in."
Your Majesty.

After the eighth master and the ninth master came in, they saw so many people already there, so they saluted: "Huang Ama."
Emperor: "Everyone, sit down and listen to the music composed by Lao Shiba."
The servants brought stools over.
Both Master Jiu and Master Eight said: "Yes, Huang Ama."
After a few people sat down, I also sat down and started playing the music.
Everyone was immersed in the music of the Eighteenth Master.
The music that originally sounded more comfortable was a bit sad at this time.
Everyone listened to it more or less.
I felt a little sad.
I also unknowingly remembered every moment I had spent with Master Shiba and his innocent smile, and I actually shed tears.
After the song was played, the emperor and I both had tears on our faces.
I wiped my tears, and the emperor also took the eunuch's handkerchief and wiped my tears.
A young eunuch came forward with a soup bowl: "Your Majesty, take some medicine."
The emperor took one look and said: "You should all retreat.
I am tired."
Master Ba and everyone else saluted: "Yes."
The emperor drank the medicine and fell asleep.
After the brothers went out together, they didn't speak, which seemed a little embarrassing.
"When did Princess Shu Qiao arrive in the capital?"
Master Ba asked gently.
"I just arrived today and happened to meet the fourth master entering the palace to visit the emperor, so we went to greet the emperor together."
I didn't raise my eyes to look at them.
Just glanced here and there.
"The princess is taken care of by the fourth brother, so we will leave first.
We can come to the house to play when we have time."
Eighth Master.
"Okay."
I saluted and sent them away.
After they left, I said to myself: Go to your house to scold your wife or your sister.
I won’t go.
When Fourth Master saw Shu Qiao, he didn't know what she was thinking, so he said, "I'll take you to see my eighteenth brother."
Only then did I come back to my senses: "Yes."
I nodded and said to Master Thirteen, "Master Thirteen, can I borrow your flute?"
Master Thirteen took out the flute and didn't ask any questions.
He must have known why I borrowed the flute.
At the corner, Master Jiu stopped and glanced at Shu Qiao in the distance, then lowered his eyes and left.
However, the falling flowers were intentional, but the flowing water was ruthless.
Since ancient times, there is only time for passion and hatred, and only when you are drunk can you relieve lovesickness.
I don’t know if this wine is really that powerful.
I used to drink just for the sake of amorous feelings, but now it is for anesthesia.
When I came to the tombstone of the Eighteenth Master's imperial mausoleum, I played the flute again.
After finishing the song, I took out the flute music that had been hidden in my cloak and hat.
Suddenly something occurred to me and I turned around and asked: Master: "Can I burn it?"
Fourth Master shook his head: "This is an important place for imperial mausoleums, and setting fires is taboo."
Seeing Shu Qiao lowering his head in despair and holding the scroll tightly, the fourth master said again: "You can send it to the tombkeeper, where you can burn it."

I nodded, turned around and walked over, squatting down and looking at the tombstone, as if I was chatting face to face with Master Shiba, "Master Shiba, you should be very satisfied with the song just now.
No one has played a duet with me yet.
Ensemble, when I find someone next time, I will play the complete song to you."
At this point, I suddenly felt very sorry for Master Shiba, "Master Shiba, you don't blame me for not saving you."
When the Fourth Master heard this, he became even more suspicious, but he didn't know how to ask.
He just stepped forward and said, "This is none of your business."
I turned my head, not intending to explain, and stood up slowly.
The fourth master came over and held my hand, wiped my tear-stained cheeks, and just said in his usual gentle voice: "Let's go back, I'm sure You are tired these days, go back to your house and take a rest."
"Yes."
Shu Qiao nodded.
Master Jiu was checking the gold and silver treasures and rare treasures in the warehouse.
He couldn't remember where the jade flute was before.
As he walked, he muttered: "Yingqi, put the white jade flute that Mr.
Yun gave me last time."
Where is it?"
After waiting for a while, he realized that Yingqi, who was usually very alert, did not respond.
Jiuye stopped and saw Yingqi frowning, his soul wandering in space.
He did not hear his question, nor did he notice that he had already Stop.
When Yingqi walked over, Master Jiu shouted: "Yingqi."
Yingqi came back to his senses and realized that he had gone too far.
He immediately leaned over and apologized: "This slave deserves to die.
Please forgive me, Master Jiu."
"My subordinates don't like to have idle people.
If you have something to do, I can ask you to take leave and don't be an eyesore in front of me."
Master Jiu always talks like this to his subordinates.
This may be what it feels like to be the master.
After Yingqi thought for a few seconds, he finally decided to kneel down: "Master Jiu, my sister is seriously ill.
I hope Master Jiu can save my sister."
Master Jiu was not really that indifferent, "This matter is easy to handle.
I will ask Dr.
Wang to treat your sister."
"My servant has already gone to see Dr.
Wang, but Dr.
Wang said that except for miraculous medicine, it is impossible for my sister to survive more than a year."
Yingqi.
"Since the imperial doctor can't do anything, what's the point of begging me."
Master Jiu softened his tone.
"Yes," Yingqi plucked up the courage to finally say what he said from the bottom of his heart: "I remember, Mr.
Smith, the missionary who came to China three years ago, gave you a life-sustaining pill.
I beg the master to give it to you.
I am willing."
Life for life.”
"Your life has been mine for a long time, why would you exchange your life for your life?"
Master Jiu.
"As long as Master Jiu is willing to give me the life-sustaining pill, I will do whatever I want."

Yingqi looked up at Master Jiu, hoping that Master Jiu would agree to it.
Although Yingqi is a servant, he has been by his side for so many years, but if it is such a precious thing as the "life-sustaining pill", it is still not worth giving to him.
If he wants to give it, he must give it to himself or someone whose life is equal to his.
After thinking about it for a while, Master Jiu still said with his usual indifferent attitude: "Your sister's life is not as good as my life."
Even though he said this, Master Jiu couldn't bear to look at him.
Yingqi knew that although Master Jiu seemed more selfish, as long as he sacrificed his life, Master Jiu might still take it out.
Yingqi stood up, picked up the dagger placed in Zuo Gaoge, and stabbed himself in the stomach.
"Are you trying to threaten me?"
Master Jiu said to Yingqi angrily after being surprised.
"I don't dare.
I said I would trade my life for my life."
Yingqi said while enduring the pain.
"I advise you to save your energy.
It is impossible for me to give you the elixir.
If you die now, there will be no one to take care of your sister."
After Jiu Ye said this, he left without looking back.
Yingqi knew that Jiu This road is dead, and it is impossible to stay by Jiu Ye's side in the future.
Thinking that my sister has to leave this world at such a young age makes me feel even sadder
