Chương 341: Bleeding fingers

Nianzu was playing the zither in his private music room. His eyes were closed while his fingers were plucking the strings at an expeditious rate. The words of Lei Wanxi were ringing like a bell in his head. Suddenly, a string broke and a sharp noise echoed in the room. He opened his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Your highness," Chuntao called him gracefully, who was standing near the door of the room. Nianzu lifted his eyes to look at her. "What are you doing here? No one is allowed here without my permission." Nianzu never let anyone enter his music room. Seeing Chuntao did not annoy him, but surprised him. 

"Earlier I saw his highness leaving the feast in the middle. His highness did not even take his meals so…" she stopped speaking as she heard the voice of the Crown Prince. Nianzu stood up from his seat and walked past Chuntao. He heard Lei Wanxi and Sheng Li's voices talking with Eunuch Chung.
