"Brother Long," Nan Hua called out and pointed to the pavilion. "Do you want to play music together?"
Play music together?
Hearing this, Long Qian Xing’s eyes turned gentle and there was a bright smile on his face. It was rare for the two of them to play music together. The last time should be many years ago during a banquet.
And that was because it was necessary for them to play a song.
"Yes." Long Qian Xing ordered his servant to take the flute he kept in his study room and sat beside Nan Hua as he watched Nan Hua plucked the string to test the sound.
"It’s rare to see you play music," Long Qian Xing said slowly.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes and replied, "Today is Lou and Chu Yue’s marriage. I can’t play music for them, but they can still hear the sound from a distance. And it has been a while since the last time I practiced."
If Nan Hua were to play music directly for the servants, it was estimated that there would be many people who would come and criticized her. This era was very conservative and also paid extreme attention to one’s status and behavior.
While Nan Hua felt that many things were really cumbersome, but she was still willing to listen and follow the rules here.
After all, there was nothing good with being too different and stay in the limelight.
But Nan Hua felt that if she were to practice music and create a lively atmosphere, it would be good enough. Besides, she herself felt happy for Chu Yue.
"It’s a good idea." Long Qian Xing chuckled.
"I’ll see Song Yi Nan tomorrow," Nan Hua added and then asked, "Do you want to see someone else before going?"
"No." Long Qian Xing shook his head.
After seeing Song Chuan tomorrow to see how their plan progressed, he would not bother with it anymore. Song Chuan has proven himself capable in the past few years and Long Qian Xing believed that he would be able to solve any problem that came up.
There were also other people under Song Chuan whom he had cultivated over the years, so Long Qian Xing didn’t think that small problems would be able to stop him.
Besides… that man was able to become a governor without using his name as his backstage.
Compared to other officials who also wanted to become a governor and had powerful family behind them, Song Chuan managed to stand out and win. There was no way it could happen without him having enough capabilities.
Long Qian Xing would not help Song Chuan arbitrarily. Most of the things that he achieved today depended on his own ability and Long Qian Xing only helped a little bit to make sure that Song Chuan could finish his tasks.
"Ok." Nan Hua nodded.
The servant returned and handed over the flute to Long Qian Xing.
He looked at Nan Hua curiously and asked, "What song do you want to play?"
Knowing that the two of them came from the same world, there were also some songs he knew from there. In this world, he barely learned any music, so Long Qian Xing couldn’t really think of anything.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes and looked at Long Qian Xing. "Winter Melody."
