General is Pregnant - C28
Ling Shuang lowered her head and thought deeply before whispering a few words into Cha Zi’s ear. Before long, Cha Zi mounted her horse and passed a narrow and long cloth bag to Ling Shuang.
Ling Shuang opened her cloth bag and took out an oddly-shaped musical instrument. It was not a normal seven-stringed zither, but had twenty-one strings.
Even Fang Yu found it strange, when did this girl make such a musical instrument? Why didn’t he know? How would he know that Ling Shuang was an expert at the zither before he transmigrated, hence he knew everything?
It was just that she did not want to tell Fang Yu her true identity, so after making the zither, she was also hidden by Ling Shuang.
Seeing Ling Shuang holding a strange musical instrument as she sat on the snow-white felt mat in the middle, many people curiously stretched their necks. They didn’t know if this girl who had already given them too many surprises, was there another kind of surprise that they had never seen before.
Ling Shuang focused on fiddling with the zither. She had secretly practiced it a few times, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
Suddenly, Ling Shuang’s red sleeves flew up, and a melody instantly rose up like a sharp sword, causing everyone to be shocked.
“Canghai laughed! The tides on both sides of the river! ” Ling Shuang’s clear and beautiful voice along with the soul-stirring tune suddenly sounded out, and the surroundings became completely silent without a single noise.
The melody was slow and unceasing, fast and not chaotic. As the tempo of the second half increased, becoming more and more intimate, everyone’s hearts were shocked by the feeling of gratitude and hatred.
A melodious and sharp flute sound suddenly merged into Ling Shuang’s melody. It was so fitting and did not seem out of the ordinary in the slightest, but it also added a little more Vast Expanse to the tune.
There was a domineering attitude, but also an uncontrollable sorrow. There was also an endless stream of energy. Such a shocking tune, it was definitely the only one in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, and it was also the only one.
Long Chen Xuan slowly stood up and uncontrollably walked to the front of this strange couple, quietly defending them. As if he was drunk from listening to their words, the song ended, and no one could say a word.
Long Chen Xuan was the first to come to his senses after hearing the melody, and asked softly: “What is the name of this piece of music by the young mistress, why is it so desolate?”
Ling Shuang smiled, she had always liked this song. After she became an agent, she was forced to do many things. She could not tell her family about the endless loneliness and the pain that ordinary people could not endure. Of course, this could not be said, it could not be said.
“Reporting to Your Highness, this song is called ‘A Laughter of the Canghai’.”
“Is a good name made by the young mistress?”
Long Chen Xuan was even more shocked and immediately asked: “I never thought that Young Madam would actually be able to create such a tune!”
Ling Shuang could only say in a deep voice, “One year ago, I was besieged by three hundred thousand Steel Cavalry of the Wuhuan. I stood at the top of the city in the midst of a snowstorm, in the wilderness, I fought for ten years in a war, I was also very tired and also felt homesick, so this song seems a bit desolate. ”
Fang Yu’s heart was in extreme pain, he held Ling Shuang’s hand tightly, yet he was unable to say a single word.
Ling Shuang suddenly had the urge to speak up for Ling Shuang who had fought for ten years. She slowly looked around and said, “I know that all of you look down on female generals, but in reality … I also really want to dress up like a woman and act coquettishly in front of my parents.
She suddenly felt a fierce pain in her chest. However, the moisture in her eyes was suppressed and her eyes became a bit brighter.
“But, I, Ling Shuang, am a person of my dreams and have never regretted fighting with my brothers in the snowy plains. That is my dream and that is something that I will protect for my entire life. I… Ling Shuang never regretted it! ”
As Ling Shuang finished speaking, she was a little tired. She held her hand and only wanted to hug her and protect her, so she quickly brought her to the entrance of the Flower Hall.
A line of tears dropped from the corner of Hu Li’s eyes as he watched the red-clothed female leave with her head lowered.
“General Ling!” Third Prince Long Chenxuan suddenly rushed to Ling Shuang’s front, “General Ling, please accept this respect!”
Everyone stared blankly at the magnificent dragon, phoenix grandson bowing to a girl, they simply didn’t dare to believe what they were seeing.
Ling Shuang was shocked too, she immediately supported him, but her heart was in turmoil. She finally obtained the best rewards and honor in the world for Ling Shuang who was happy for the past.
Until Ling Shuang and Fang Yu disappeared from the entrance of the hall, only then did the people realize that, with a sickly expression, it didn’t take long for the banquet to end.
On the way back, Fang Heng’s expression had been extremely gloomy. He knew Ling Shuang’s personality, and would never say anything about it. For some reason, her words today had moved him greatly. Even the understanding Ling Wan was not able to pique his interest.
Was that laugh from the blue sea really the voice in her heart?
After returning to the Fang Residence’s East Garden, Ling Shuang sat by the window and remained silent.
Cha Zi and Yan Hong’s eyes were red from crying. They had fought with the Eldest Miss for so many years, but never would they have thought that the Eldest Miss was such a weak person.
“Shuang Er,” Fang Yu carefully held onto that pair of ice cold hands, on top of which there was a thick layer of old calluses which was accustomed to holding onto swords.
“Shuang Er,” Fang Yu suddenly dropped his head to kiss the thick cocoon on her hand, and called out gently, wishing that he could shoulder all the pain, panic and fatigue in the past.
Fang Yu had never felt such pain before, even when he was young and his skin was cut by a blade and forced to eat rotten food, when he was toyed with by Fang Heng, and when he was abandoned by Fang Xiu Wen, he had never felt such pain.
He was in so much pain that he didn’t know what to do. He really couldn’t do anything about her.
“Shuang Er,” Fang Yu slowly pulled Ling Shuang into her embrace and tightened her grip, raising her stubborn chin to look at her misty phoenix eyes.
“Shuang Er, in this life, I will not let you suffer even a little bit. Unless I die, no, even if I die, you won’t suffer even a little bit.”
Ling Shuang trembled violently. She was only trying to help Ling Shuang out today, but she did not expect Fang Yu to be so serious about it. Her lips opened, but were suddenly sealed by Fang Yu’s burning hot lips.
Ling Shuang was completely dumbstruck. Was this considered her first kiss? Though it was strange.
Ling Shuang’s mind gradually returned to normal and she quickly pushed him away in panic, her face blushing red.
“Shuang Er,” Fang Yu panted heavily, looking at the woman in front of him whose appearance was both picturesque and resolute, “Shuang Er, I want to ask you a question.”
Ling Shuang turned her head around uncomfortably: “What do you want to know?”
Fang Yu’s peach blossom eyes revealed a faint smile: “Shuang Er, I want to go back on my word. I don’t want to wait for half a year, can we … For real? ”
Ling Shuang was startled, then suddenly raised her eyes to look at Fang Yu’s serious eyes, her heart suddenly became anxious and she broke free from Fang Yu’s restraints, “Really … That’s a rotten question. “
