A figure stood on the boat, slowly sailing towards the shore with the oars. When he got closer, he could see the scars on his face.

It's no one else, it's Tang Ba.

He saluted respectfully at Zheng Ze, "Mr. Zheng."

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Nong Yuling's eyes. She looked at the boat, and there was a table on which was a square wooden box.

She felt a familiar feeling and turned her eyes to Zheng Ze, "That's... Qin?"

Zheng Ze raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that she could recognize the piano so much.

He nodded slightly and glanced at Tang Ba. The other party understood it. He turned around and opened the zither box. The next moment, a exquisite guqin came into his eyes.

Zheng Ze stretched and said softly: "You understand the piano. Let me see what the difference between you and Miss Nongyu's piano skills are."

Upon hearing this, Nong Yu was slightly stunned and turned his head to look at Zheng Ze. She was a little confused, "Have you heard Miss Nong Yu play the piano?"

But when he saw Zheng Ze not squint his eyes, he nodded softly.

This made Nongyu even more confused. I had played the piano for me, why didn’t I know about it myself?

Could it be...that happened in the dream? She thought to herself.

However, Xiuwan's white and tender face did not show any of it. Her spiritual eyes looked at Zheng Ze's expression and asked quietly: "Then, what do you think of Miss Nongyu's piano skills?"

Zheng Ze shook his head, "Three words."

"Hmm?" The girl's eyes became even more curious.

“Unclear!”

Nong Yu:???

Not to mention these two words, why did he defame others' innocence out of thin air?

Before she could speak, Zheng Ze looked at the expression on his face, which was originally full of calmness, changing with his words, from doubt to curiosity, from curiosity to astonishment, and with a hint of resentment.

"You seem to have a different opinion?" he said softly.

Although she felt that the other party's slandering her was a bit unacceptable, she still didn't take it too seriously as she was always elegant.

She looked at the rippling waves by the lake, her pink lips opened and said in a warm voice: "Miss Nongyu's piano skills are the best in Zilan Xuan. Although she is not a master of music, she also has her own characteristics on this path. Even if someone does not like the sound of the piano, it will not be unpleasant. You will not talk about such dirty and innocent words in front of others in the future."

After the previous twists and turns in Zilanxuan, her relationship with this man seemed to be a little better than that of ordinary people, but she still seemed to be very strange.

It is because there are few opposite sexes in her life, so the measurements are difficult to compare.

This is actually for his own good. Many people have heard of his piano sound. If he maliciously slandered him in front of others, he would probably be looked down upon.

Zheng Ze shook his head. He felt the kindness in the girl's words. When she said bad things about her, was she still caring about me?

Looking at her flawless pretty face, Zheng Ze showed a puzzled expression, "I heard you have said so many times, you seem to know her very well?"

In order to show the persuasiveness of his words, Nong Yu nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said softly: "Probably no one knows Miss Nong Yu better than me."

"Oh~ I must have made a mistake. The song I listened to was not played by Miss Nongyu. I would ask Miss Nongyu to admit it." Zheng Ze humbly accepted the views of authoritative experts.

Nongyu glanced at him and shook her head gently, "No need to apologize, she won't take it to heart. You... don't do this in the future."

It seemed that it was the first time to convince this person who was a little strong and a little scoundrel before, but Nong Yu felt a little happy.

Regarding Nong Yu's reminder, Zheng Ze nodded seriously, "I remember, you seem to say that she is beautiful?"

Upon hearing this, Nong Yu looked at him in confusion. He seemed to be particularly interested in Nong Yu...

Suddenly, she remembered what she was thinking about on the road. What Zheng Ze seemed to say before was, "Your Fire Rain Agate". Last time she clearly said, "Fire Rain Agate is a jade-making tool." She didn't know very well before, whether this was the other party's unintentional words or something.

But now I feel his abnormality more and more, and I unconsciously connect this matter.

Could he not know my identity, right?

The originally Jingya girl suddenly looked at the man in front of her nervously, wouldn't she?

What did I say just now?

"Hmm? Why don't you talk?" Zheng Ze deliberately seemed very confused.

Nong Yu's nervous heart was pounding, and she felt that she had never been so nervous in her life.

"You, do you know something?" she asked tentatively.

Zheng Ze seemed even more confused, "What do you know? Do you want to make jade? If I knew, I would ask you?"

Shui Ling's eyes looked at Zheng Ze's delicate face without blinking, trying to find clues from the subtleties, but he seemed to have no flaws.

Seeing this, a worried heart became more at ease, "Then why do you care so much about Miss Nongyu?"

Seeing the originally elegant and generous girl showing a guilty expression like she did something bad, Zheng Ze thought it was very interesting, but after professional training, he would not laugh.

"Of course I apologized to her. I actually said so many bad things about her because I divided the wrong person and said so many bad things about her. " He confessed sincerely.

Looking at his appearance, Nong Yu waved his hand, "Miss Nong Yu won't take it to heart, you don't need to blame yourself so much."

She could feel the regret that this man had from the heart when he got so close, and some of the doubts seemed to be overly concerned.

"No, my conscience will be unhappy. You must tell me!" Zheng Ze said sincerely and seriously.

A hint of helplessness appeared on Nong Yufei's face, "Then what do you want to know?"

"Is Miss Nongyu beautiful?"

"beautiful!"

"Is she a good personality?"

"good!"

"Do you think she'll be angry if I apologize to her?"

"Won't!"

"How is her figure?"

"Is this related to whether you admit it or not?"

"Okay, then I apologize, she really won't be angry?"

"No!"

Looking at Nong Yu who shook his head gently, Zheng Ze paused for a moment, his tone was full of playfulness, "Miss Nong Yu, are you really not angry?"

"Don't you say..." Nong Yu spoke reflexively, but suddenly reacted, and his pretty face changed color in an instant and solidified for this second.

Zheng Ze even saw that the pupils in her spiritual eyes suddenly contracted, and at this moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.

The lakeside where the two of them were talking idlely, suddenly fell into the silence of death.

...

General's Mansion.

Ji Wuye sat in the main seat, pinched the chin of the beauty beside him, shook her head casually, and spoke to a figure standing below: "How is it?"

"Report to the general that one of the two men could not withstand torture and died. The other one has not spoken yet."

Hearing this, Ji Wuye frowned, "Die? How did he die?"

The person below was wearing a inferior cloth robe and lowered his head, "I committed suicide while the guards were not paying attention."

"Hmph, trash." Ji Wuye snorted coldly, not knowing who he was talking about.

"Have you found out where that paper comes from?" Ji Wuye asked.

"We checked all the nearby trade routes and found no convoys carrying paper."

Ji Wuye's expression was faint and he sneered, "It seems that he has prepared a lot. I will get things done in the evening and I will receive a lot of rewards when I come back. I will give you whatever you want!"

Hearing this, the killer in a cloth robe bent his waist lower, "I am willing to be the general!"

After handing over the orders from the General's Mansion, figures quickly left and headed in the same direction.
