Under the gaze of everyone, Ying Wuji wrote the entire poem of "Exploring the Window" without missing a word.

However, most people showed disappointnt on their faces.

The story was well told, but unfortunately, it was not a poem. If one only looked at the words, it seed like a folk song sung by a woman.

Although literati always put poetry, lyrics, and songs together, there were still differences between them. Those who wrote poetry looked down on those who composed songs. Even those who sang songs were more proud of singing Yuefu poetry.

Ying Wuji's poem was not up to standard in terms of rhythm and rhy.

Ji Su couldn't help but laugh: "Ying, you only scribbled this kind of sentence. I'm afraid you won't get to see Miss Hua Chao!"

As he spoke, he turned to Luo Ming. In terms of eloquence, this master was more flexible. Why not take advantage of the situation and criticize Ying Wuji?

Luo Ming's face was a bit annoyed: "Such a terrible sentence. Let's not taint Miss Hua Chao's eyes with it. Young Master Wuji, please leave!"

As he spoke, he reached out to take the paper away.

Wu Dan acted quickly and blocked Luo Ming: "Who is Miss Hua Chao's favorite? When is it Luo's turn to decide?"

Luo Ming snorted: "This is a gathering of literati. Such a terrible sentence not only embarrasses us, but also Miss Hua Chao. Is that not true, everyone?"

The crowd imdiately began to whisper.

"Indeed! These sentences are beautiful on their own, but when put together, they fall short."

"The Great Li has a flourishing literary scene, and Miss Hua Chao is a talented woman..."

"These sentences will be laughed at if they are spread out. People will think that the literati of the Great Li are not up to standard."

"Even if Miss Hua Chao composes beautiful songs, they have nothing to do with Ying Wuji."

Upon hearing everyone's comnts, Luo Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was about to dismiss Wu Dan, but he saw Ying Wuji pick up his pen again and add a line of small characters to the first sentence: "mi-sol-mi-re-mi-sol-mi."

"This...is it the Gongche notation?"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion. Most of them ca from noble families and were proficient in the Six Arts of gentlemanly conduct, music, archery, and mathematics. Naturally, they recognized the Gongche notation. They never expected that Ying Wuji would directly compose the musical score.

As they were stunned, Ying Wuji's pen moved swiftly, and he marked the entire musical score of the song.

"Phew..."

Ying Wuji let out a sigh of relief. As a music blind person, he naturally didn't understand the Gongche notation. However, he happened to catch a glimpse of it in his past life. Fortunately, he had the waking charm given by Wu Shuangxu, which allowed him to copy it down completely.

A quick look at " will leave you more fulfilled.

He waved to Hua Chao's little maid: "Excuse !"

The little maid ca over with light steps.Luo Ming stopped him with a hand gesture: "No need!"

Ying Wuji raised an eyebrow: "What's your opinion, Brother Luo?"

Luo Ming's face was solemn: "Although you have composed a piece, it is certainly not as good as Miss Hua Chao's. The lyrics are also unbearable. Let's not tarnish Miss Hua Chao's eyes!"

"Huh? Why are you so unreasonable?" Bai Zhi couldn't help but glare at Luo Ming in indignation.

Luo Ming remained calm and showed no sign of backing down.

At that mont, a voice ca from behind the screen: "Enough!"

Hua Chao's voice was rare with a hint of anger: "My eyes are on my own. I don't need others to worry about whether they are tainted or not. Brother Luo, you have a famous teacher and are the son of the Pri Minister. If this were said elsewhere, I would not dare to disobey. However, this is a small bamboo garden, so please don't make decisions for ."

Everyone was stunned. Hua Chao was known for her gentleness and had never been angry with anyone before. But upon reflection, Luo Ming was indeed too overbearing.

However, due to Luo Ming's identity, they wouldn't be so foolish as to criticize him at this point.

Soone ca forward to diate, afraid that Luo Ming would hold a grudge against the songstress. If sothing really happened, who would play music in the future?

"Miss Hua Chao! Brother Luo didn't an it that way. He was just worried that you would tire yourself out and didn't want you to be upset by diocre works!"

Hua Chao didn't continue to argue and just exhaled lightly, softly calling out: "Xiao Liu, bring the score over!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Liu responded and took the paper from Luo Ming, who didn't stop her this ti.

After the paper was delivered, there was a long silence behind the screen.

Ying Wuji looked at Luo Ming with interest. Earlier, Wu Shuangxu had said that Hua Chao was most likely the Pri Minister's illegitimate daughter. Now it seed to be confird. He just didn't know what kind of relationship the father and daughter had and what role they played in his assassination.

Behind the screen, Hua Chao held the paper, her breathing becoming slightly rapid. Ying Wuji's aggressiveness made her uncomfortable, but Luo Ming's behavior, thinking he could control her, was even more repulsive.

Moreover, she had heard about Ying Wuji's composition through the screen and was also very curious. She didn't expect a prince to be able to compose music.

She slowly opened the paper and examined it carefully.

At first glance, a gentle woman's figure appeared in her mind.

The expectation of waiting, the sadness of finding emptiness, and the determination when embarking on the pursuit were all extrely vivid.

And the image of this woman gradually beca the face she rembered.

"He wrote..." Hua Chao's eyes beca a little sore, and the ancient jade on her chest emitted a bright light.

For a while, her gaze couldn't leave the paper."She sings of eting old acquaintances from her hotown, every step and sentence filled with longing."

"The people below are announcing the nas on the gold list, not recognizing old acquaintances on the stage."

"He speaks of the wedding night with candles and flowers, everyone congratulating the beauty and the talented scholar."

"But not a single sigh or love-stricken sentint can be heard in the play..."

Although she didn't say it out loud, the image of a woman playing the zither and singing with a mournful voice appeared in her mind.

After reading it, tears stread down her face.

She was still a child that year, traveling thousands of miles with her mother to Jiangcheng, only to find out that the husband and father they had been waiting for years had beco the son-in-law of the Wei family.

The woman in the song was able to catch up with her faithless lover's wedding, but they couldn't catch up with anything and were driven out of Jiangcheng like chickens by the lover's wife's family. And the faithless lover's father didn't dare to say a word!

According to her mother, when the faithless lover was summoned to the capital, he promised to make her mother and daughter rich and prosperous for life as long as he beca an official, but it turned out like this.

This story wasn't as tragic as theirs, but it stirred up her emotions and made her want to cry with her face covered.

Suddenly, the ancient jade in her heart shone brightly.

And in Ying Wuji's mind, a voice sounded.

At the sa ti, Hua Chao's voice ca from behind the screen.

"Young Master, can I co behind the screen for a mont?"
