Chapter 185 Zhai Yun falls ill
"I hope Your Highness will not disappoint the Emperor's trust."
Feng Chenyi pulled his hand back from Guan Li and helped Zhai Yun, who was still kneeling on the ground, up.
Guan Li, who had passed on the message, returned to Emperor Xing'an again. Emperor Xing'an turned around and said something to Xuanyuan Che, no longer looking at this side.
When Xia Lanyan appeared, she was holding a zither in her arms, with her face covered by a veil. She was wearing a pink brocade dress embroidered with peony patterns. She looked dignified and elegant, with an extraordinary temperament.
She attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared on the stage. Her graceful posture and every step she took seemed like a flower swaying in the wind.
Looking at the covetous eyes of everyone present looking at her, Zhai Yun suddenly felt fortunate that Xia Lanyan had the foresight to wear a veil.
If everyone present saw her stunning beauty, the threshold of Prince Rui's Mansion would be trampled down from now on.
In her previous life, after Xia Lanyan became famous for one of her songs, countless people came to her to propose marriage. However, later on, it was heard that she and Prince Rui had already promised to spend their lives together.
As soon as Xia Lanyan entered the venue, she kept looking around until she found Feng Chenyi, and the smile in her eyes could not be concealed.
She was brought directly to the stage, where a piano table had already been prepared.
Some people in the audience were discussing Xia Lanyan's origins, saying that Xia Lanyan had an elegant and dignified temperament and did not seem like someone from the common people.
It can be said that Prince Rui is so lucky to have such an outstanding woman by his side.
Because the zither players of Fengli Kingdom came from the common people, in order to prevent the people of Xuanyuan Kingdom from feeling neglected and humiliated, Fengli Kingdom played first in this round.
Fu Yiming looked at Xia Lanyan who was about to play on the stage and said to Emperor Che with disdain, "Even if a commoner girl is somewhat pretty, if her piano skills are mediocre, it would be an insult to my Xuanyuan clan."
Xuanyuan Che didn't react much after hearing this, but just glanced in the direction of Zhai Yun.
This is already the fourth game. Xuanyuan Kingdom has one draw and two losses. If they lose another game, they will be completely defeated.
The test questions asked by Fengli Country were ordinary, and he was the only one who asked questions in the last two rounds. If Zhai Yun was really just an ordinary person, Fengli Country would have no chance of winning, and the victory or defeat seemed to depend on this one game.
Xia Lanyan looked in the direction of Feng Chenyi, only to see Feng Chenyi gently pick up a piece of meat and put it into Zhai Yun's bowl. Zhai Yun, who had been looking at Xia Lanyan, cheered her on.
In her previous life, she was able to become famous with just one song, and she can do the same in this life.
Xia Lanyan was different today than usual. She was radiating light and her eyes were full of confidence, as if she knew that her piano skills were superior today.
The sound of the piano jumped out happily from the strings, and the moving sounds were like the sound of nature. In just a moment, Zhai Yun recognized the song that Xia Lanyan was playing.
It was a song that Xia Lanyan had engraved in her memory. She once told Feng Chenyi that she often heard this song when she was very young. She reproduced it many times and played it countless times before she completely integrated the sound of the song with her memory.
She has played and listened to this song countless times. It is one of the few beautiful memories in her life and carries too many emotions with her.
She played this piece of music, filled with the sadness of these years and the pain of losing her loved ones, as if she was telling her heart's thoughts to her long-lost relatives.
In the song, she is sometimes strong, sometimes weak, and sometimes acts coquettishly to her relatives in her dreams. The song is full of twists and turns, which makes people feel moved and pity.
Even Feng Chenyi, who never looked at Xia Lanyan directly, was in a daze. He looked at Xia Lanyan hesitantly, with a hint of shock in his eyes.
Xia Lanyan in the song seems to be telling about her miserable life. She longs for the company of her relatives, someone to rely on, and someone to talk to.
The only thing that accompanied her was loneliness. After waking up from the dream, she was still alone.
Zhai Yun saw the frost in Feng Chenyi's eyes slowly melting, and his eyes looking at Xia Lanyan changed from indifference to complexity, his eyes fixed on Xia Lanyan.
I even forgot to put down the teacup in my hand.
Zhai Yun suddenly felt a little scared and uncomfortable.
In the previous life, Xia Lanyan and Feng Chenyi's promise to protect each other for life also started after Xia Lanyan became famous for one of her songs.
Zhai Yun's heart skipped a beat, as if something had suddenly fallen, leaving her heart empty and painful.
Xia Lanyan and Feng Chenyi's experiences were so similar. They both had deeply experienced the days of being without relatives. At this moment, everything Xia Lanyan said through her piano seemed to be telling his own thoughts.
Zhai Yun couldn't quite believe it. Could it be that Feng Chenyi had also fallen in love with Xia Lanyan at this time in his previous life?
So, will everything go back to the track of the previous life?
Zhai Yun felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. Her whole body was so cold that there was not a trace of temperature at all, and her body gradually felt numb.
Feng Chenyi followed the path of her previous life, but what about her?
Zhai Yun couldn't help but look at the prince across from her, fear welling up in her heart...
She had done so much in this life, but nothing could be changed? If nothing could be changed, then why did she come?
I could faintly hear someone calling anxiously, "Yun'er, Yun'er."
Zhai Yun's vision was a little blurry. In the blur, Zhai Yun seemed to see the prince looking in her direction, and he showed a puzzled look again.
Why were Zhai Yun's eyes so full of emotions every time she looked at him? Before, it was hatred and fear, but this time it was a mixture of emotions, with tears in her eyes.
The prince's heart was gripped tightly.
He wanted to stand up and walk over, but he was afraid of scaring him.
Zhai Yun came to her senses in Feng Chenyi's arms. A little bit of warmth made her body warm again and she regained consciousness.
Zhai Yun moved slightly, and the person holding her seemed to breathe again, "Yun'er, Yun'er."
Feng Chenyi called Zhai Yun's name over and over again but could not utter a word. He just stroked Zhai Yun's face over and over again to make sure that Zhai Yun still had warmth and breath.
It seemed that only in this way could he find comfort.
Zhai Yun looked at everything around her, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar. Familiar because this was the palace where Concubine Chen used to live, and unfamiliar because they were no longer in the competition arena.
There was a row of imperial doctors standing behind Feng Chenyi. When they saw that Zhai Yun had regained consciousness, they were so excited that they cried.
After making sure that Zhai Yun had breathing temperature, Feng Chenyi hugged Zhai Yun tightly, buried his head in Zhai Yun's chest, and his body trembled slightly.
He whimpered, "It's okay, it's okay."
Zhai Yun was also confused. What had happened to her? How could this happen? How could she have no idea how she got here?
Seeing Feng Chenyi trembling lightly with his head buried in her chest, Zhai Yun couldn't help but pat his shoulder gently to comfort him: "I'm fine, don't worry."
It was only later that Zhai Yun realized that she had suddenly lost consciousness in the competition arena, and could not move. Her body was as cold as ice, and no matter how Feng Chenyi called out to her, she would not respond.
He ignored it and stopped the competition. He took Zhai Yun back to the palace of Concubine Chen, and asked people to bring dozens of quilts and filled the bedroom with braziers.
