The girl was supposed to beco a palace courtesan because of the recognition of her skills in playing the lute. Thus, Xu tried to reform her. She would catch the girl when she escaped, and she would try to talk so sense into her.
However, the girl said these words to her at that ti.
Im sure my fiance will save and take out of here!
Xu seed to see herself in that girl as she watched her cry while spitting those words out.
However, unfortunately, reality was different. The fiance of the girl quickly abandoned her failing family, and was engaged to the daughter of a different house.
It seed that he already told the girl about this before she beca a courtesan, but she didnt believe him.
No, perhaps, she did know about it.
Xu understood the feeling of being unable to accept reality, to the point that she could painfully empathize.
Thats why, she counseled the girl with these words.
Even if he were to save you, it doesnt an the formalities and procedures are finished right away. Its not strange even if it took many years before its done. So what now, do you want to spend all that ti moping around?.
Instead of refuting the girl and saying no help will co, she rephrased it to it will take ti.
It wasnt really a lie.
Even if it was just in na, they were courtesans who were considered possessions of the emperor, so they also needed his permission for them to be free.
That wasnt sothing that could be accomplished in just a day or two.
At any rate, theres nothing you can do about it, so you can just play the lute to kill so ti, right?
The girl didnt resist Xus words, and she decided to obediently practice the lute.
Well, if people around her kept on opposing her, she might rebel, even if she knew whats wrong and right.
That was Yui is impression after listening to Xus story until now.
The girl didnt resist reflexively because Xu didnt tell her that her fiance wouldnt save her, and instead listened to her advice.
She started to play the lute, albeit absentmindedly, and she eventually stopped talking about her fiance.
She was quite skilled with the lute, and Xu taught her wholeheartedly. Eventually, she was frequently summoned to play solo at the banquets she attended.
And so, her original personality and manners gradually beca more apparent.
In other words, her characteristics as soone born as the daughter of a powerful nobility would show through.
It was a while after she started her solo gigs. She started to think that Xu was being ddleso when she wanted to take care of the girl.
Xu also didnt have any plans to attentively attend to her forever, and the people from the Jiaofang also decided that the girl should be more independent, so this was quite welco as Xu wished the sa.
In order to build the girls confidence and gain experience, Xu had refrained from playing in the forefront, but now that her charge was independent, she decided to return back to keeping to herself as a solo lute player.
It was then that the difference in abilities of the girl and Xu, who had been half-heartedly playing the lute because she had devoted herself to training the girl, beca apparent.
Ever since Xu returned back to being a full-fledged lute musician, the role of solo beca hers, and the girl beca just another support, always playing behind her.
The girl apparently believed there was no other lute musician who could best her in this palace, so her pride had been crushed thoroughly.
Xu had noticed that the girl had beco quite flippant, so she wanted this to be her final lesson as part of her training.
She hoped that it would stimulate the girls desire to beco better and would lead her to devote more ti into practice.
However, the girl didnt do that.
She didnt believe it was a matter of skills. She couldnt accept that the bigwigs who shouldve leaned towards her, the princess of a powerful nobility, had favored Xu, a re daughter of a rchant even if their business was huge, and she was exasperated.
Xu, you have been envious of from the start, so you planned all of this so that you can stop from standing out in the na of training, right!?
Of all things she could do, she accused Xu of such things.
