C8 A Huge Gamble

The music can reach every corner of your soul! It was like a gentle breeze brushing past your heart, making you forget all the mundane things in the world! It was clear and natural!

Occasionally, there would be clanks and clanks! It sounded like the bones of a pine tree! It was as straight as a mountain! It was as if the sea was galloping! It was like a small stream, weak and weak!

Sometimes, it was filled with grief! It was as if the numb heart of the zither-playing person was wrapped in countless layers of clothes! At the same time, it also cleansed some of the dust in the depths of your heart!

Sometimes elegant! Sometimes empty!

It makes you happy! I'll make you sad and lose your soul with it! I will make you feel the softest part of your heart! It will also let you experience the cruelest part of the world!

It was as if it had come from ancient times! It also felt like it was close to him!

It was illusory and illusory, as if it had come to the horizon! He was right in front of her, but he had hidden it deep in his heart!

The entire hall fell into great shock at the same time. The originally noisy crowd immediately became dead silent! Although the sound of the zither was very strange, Moreover, they had never heard of it before, but everyone was immersed in the beautiful sound of the zither, unable to extricate themselves from it. What kind of life experience did one need to use to play such touching music? The sound of nature. It should be nothing more than this!

The sound of the guqin stopped abruptly, but no one woke up in a moment. They were still intoxicated by the sudden sound of the guqin! After a long time, the hall was peaceful! What was the fight for fame and fortune? What was the fight for power? They were all tossed to the back of their minds! They just wanted to find a place with no one around and think about it alone.

Countess's eyes even flashed with sparkling tears and instantly blurred her eyes. She knew that this was a special birthday gift from her son who was placed under house arrest in the backyard! But why did he come here?

Catherine was extremely excited but also uneasy. She even looked at her father who had a complicated expression and kept praying in her heart, hoping that this time she would not anger her father.

Mrs. Sophie's eyes were blurred and her chest rose and fell rapidly. She took a deep breath and it had been a long time since she heard such a touching sound. She turned her head and gently looked at Catherine who was looking at her father nervously and sighed in her heart. It seemed that her trip today was not in vain.

Princess Louise had to spend a lot of effort to recover from the beautiful music just now.

Although Prime Minister Kohl was also shocked by the sound of the music, he was sensitive to the strange expressions of the earl and his wife. After thinking for a moment, his eyes turned and his heart slightly moved. He sighed and said, "Today is really worth it. Not only did I see Mrs. Sophie, who is famous all over the continent, today. If I hadn't really heard it. . . It was as if I was in a dream, like the descent of a goddess's gospel. I never thought that there would be such an expert hiding in Count Prefecture. Since he has already arrived at the door. . . Could Count be invited out to let everyone see him? I think this is the common wish of everyone, isn't it? " After saying that, Kohl turned his head to look at the crowd and spoke loudly. " What do you all think?

At this moment, everyone had woken up from the strange and wonderful sound of the zither, and they all agreed with each other at the same time. The Prime Minister spoke out their thoughts.

Seeing this scene, Count was extremely angry in his heart. Obviously, this Kohl had come to embarrass him on purpose, but he couldn't explain it. Now, Lee Xiang would only make Walker come out. Link had lost face. Even the whole family couldn't help but become a joke. The worst part was that it would be very difficult to stop him now.

Lee Xiang, who was at the door, slowly removed his fingers from the strings. There were originally a few servants who wanted to pull him away, but in the end, they were afraid that they would alert today's distinguished guest. Furthermore, they had not received any orders from Count. After all, Lee Xiang was still third young master.

However, Lee Xiang's heart was filled with bitterness. Could he leave this cage-like life? However, he was still not sure whether it was a blessing or a disaster for him. He was afraid that only the heavens knew. If only he had the slightest ability. He would not use this method. He had no choice but to use this method that was close to cheating.

When he was ten years old, Lee Xiang would "occasionally" research some strange little things. For example, the Soaring Lamp in Count Walker's study, the flute that he often played, and the zither that he suddenly played. . . Of course, there were other things.

Lee Xiang would also give some of these things to Sander appropriately. He would even show it in front of his Eldest Sister Catherine. His goal was, of course, to attract the attention of his Earl father. He hoped that he could take into account that he was still a little smart. He would be able to see him in a different light. It proved that these things had indeed attracted Count Walker's attention. Furthermore, Count Walker had also admitted that Lee Xiang was smart, but it was precisely this kind of intelligence that indirectly harmed him. This was because Count had indeed given him a "special treatment. " The direct consequence was that he had become even more harsh on him. Of course, Lee Xiang didn't know about this matter. He didn't know that his little intelligence would bring about such a result that he didn't expect.

Initially, he wanted to give himself one last chance, but unfortunately. . . Count refused. Since he rejected his offer, he could only use his own method to solve the problem. His goal was, of course, to attract the attention of the distinguished guests in Count's Mansion. As long as he could successfully show himself today, That would naturally create an established fact, even if Count Walker wanted to further restrict his freedom in the future. He was afraid that there wouldn't be any more excuses. This method of borrowing external forces to save the country was really Lee Xiang's helpless action. Apart from this, there was nothing else he could do.

Because he knew that the law of Reiss Empire had clearly stated that racial discrimination was not allowed in a few hundred years ago. Even now, it was still the same, and even more serious. But the law was still the law after all. White words and black words were not allowed to be willfully trampled on. Even if there was such an act, It could only be carried out in secret. Of course, if such a thing happened in an ordinary white family, as long as no one reported it, it wouldn't cause too much of a stir. However, the Rinker family was different. If such a thing happened in the Rinker family, it would definitely attract their attention. This was also the principle of the big tree attracting the wind. It was even worse than the effects of ordinary white people abusing Lower Race! It was even easier to resonate with Lower Race! If even a high and mighty family in an empire could be like this, then this was a very bad example! It made people feel as if the entire upper echelons of the empire were the same.

Of course, perhaps Lee Xiang's actions might not have any effect. Because the current upper echelons of the empire, including the current royal family, also had the tendency to do so. However, the key was that they did not dare to show it openly, because they were afraid that it would cause the Lower Race to react strongly. Even if it was a riot, they had to obey this law on the surface! As long as it was Lee Xiang's matter that attracted Count Walker's political enemy's attention. Then he succeeded by half.

Life was precious, and love was even more expensive. If it was for freedom, both could be thrown away!

Lee Xiang kept repeating the famous words of his world in his heart, and his eyes flashed with a very firm and moving divine color! To be honest, he actually did not have much hope today. He just wanted to attract people's attention, that was all. He believed that. . . In such a big gathering of nobles, there was no one who could not be Count's political enemy. As long as he successfully attracted the attention of one person, that would be enough!

Although using this method to deal with his biological parents was a bit despicable, had they ever thought of him as their own son? It was just to attract the attention of others, was that wrong? Was it wrong to want freedom? People were selfish. Lee Xiang was no exception. He had no other purpose. He just wanted to get some freedom. Besides borrowing external help, he could not think of any other better way. Because if Count Walker really wanted to let him out. . . Why did he have to put him under house arrest for eighteen years?

Then let's make a big bet. We bet that Count Walker will refrain from shooting a rat in today's occasion!

Thinking up to this point, Lee Xiang stood up, held the ancient zither with both hands, and resolutely strode into the hall.
