Chapter 157 Brainwashing Song



No way!

Su Bei walked into the center of the field with a chuckle.

"First item, Qin!"

Everyone took their seats and the examiner announced the start of the exam.

Qin does not only refer to the guqin, but refers to musical instruments in general. Contestants choose the instrument they are best at to compete.

The audience was crowded and the environment was not quiet. The girls chose their instruments and sat down, waiting for the examiner to give the order.

Jiang Ruwei chose the guqin. When she sat there, she exuded a natural elegance, like a beauty in an ancient painting.

If she hadn't been thinking about Chu Younan, Su Bei would have admitted that she was indeed very elegant.

But now, Su Bei only gave her three points, because she was too fake, because she was not down to earth, because she was a little flat, and most importantly, she was still unengaged at the age of sixteen, and she was still thinking about other people's men! Yes! Other people's men! Su Bei's man! Chu Younan stood in the audience, his eyes narrowed.

Xiao Beibei is a jealous person...

It feels good to be jealous...

only……

Su Bei on the stage was holding a pipa, but why did she look so strange while trying to play it? Why did she seem to not know how to play it?

Chu Younan looked suspicious, and then heard Su Bei muttering in his heart: How do you play this thing? He regretted what he had said just now. He should have told her that he would marry her whether he won first place or not! Chu Youyang held his forehead, "Can Ah Bei do it? He looks so unfamiliar, it doesn't look like he can play the pipa?"

"Could it be that she doesn't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy or painting?" Xue Jinrong looked surprised and doubtful.

"Uh... I've never seen her play the piano..." Chu Youyang laughed awkwardly.

Xue Jinrong glared at him fiercely, "You knew she couldn't do it, but you still pushed her to do it?!"

Chu Youyang looked aggrieved, "Didn't you also instigate her?"

"How do I know she can't!" Xue Jinrong glared at him again and said angrily, "Big-eyed frog!"

Chu Younan turned his head and glanced. Before, Chu Youyang easily defeated Xue Jinrong with their assists. Let’s see how he will do it this time!

The competition on stage has begun.

Jiang Ruwei played the guqin effortlessly, the sound was melodious, like a song of mountains and flowing water.

Several other contestants followed suit and played their own instruments, but there was no prior rehearsal, so the rhythm was a bit messy.

Su Bei discovered that, in name only, it was a competition of musical instruments, but in reality it was a competition of character, to see who could maintain their own rhythm in this noisy environment.

Soon, Wu Hanjiao's flute sound became unstable, and Zhao Feilan's guzheng also seemed a little messy. The other girls were trying hard to maintain it, and Jiang Ruwei showed impatience on her face.

She had never played the piano in such a noisy environment. She always played in a room filled with incense. If the maid dared to disturb her, she would be punished.

Su Bei took action.

But the tune she played surprised everyone in the audience, and they had no idea what she was playing.

Only Chu Younan heard it. She sang silently in her heart: "Two tigers, two tigers, running fast, running fast, one has no eyes, one has no tail, how strange..."

What the hell is this?

Wu Hanjiao was completely led astray by her, and she played the song in a weird way, so she stopped in anger.

Zhao Feilan managed to keep steady, but would go out of tune from time to time, singing a remix of "High Mountains and Flowing Water" and "Two Tigers".

Jiang Rurong's brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes stared at her, and his fingers seemed to be trembling.

But Su Bei was immersed in his own world and even showed a childlike smile.

I learned to play guitar when I was young, but I only knew a few basic songs. After the end of the world, all noisy things were off-limits to them, and the first condition for all entertainment was quietness.

Fortunately, the pipa is a bit like the guitar, and the tune played is the same.

Su Bei was so engrossed in the performance that he didn't notice that the other contestants had a terrible performance.

Of the five, four stood up angrily and glared at her. The remaining one slammed the guqin hard and shouted, "Examiner! What is she playing?! She's disturbing everyone else and making it impossible for them to play!"

Ding ding dong, ding ding dong, ding ding dong, ding ding dong…

Su Bei was still playing the piano seriously, ignoring her and even humming softly.

The examiner did not answer Jiang Ruwei's words, but hummed along involuntarily.

The rhythm was so catchy that soon all the children present started singing along: "Two tigers, two tigers, run fast, run fast..."

Then there are the children’s mothers, fathers, grandparents…

The song of "Two Tigers" rang out in unison throughout the square.

Xue Jinrong looked puzzled, "Why does one have no eyes and the other has no tail?"

Chu Youyang was also confused. After thinking for a while, he continued, "It should have been shot blind by a hunter and its tail chopped off!"

"Strange..." Xue Jinrong looked at Su Bei in confusion and started humming along.

The competition of the Flower Festival belongs to the people, and the victory or defeat is also judged by the people. In the brainwashing song of Su Bei, Jiang Rurong was defeated.

"In the music competition, the winner is His Royal Highness Prince Su's cousin - Miss Su Bei!" When the examiner made the announcement, the people below were still humming Two Tigers.

Su Bei breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Ruwei innocently. She just played the song casually because she didn't know how to play it. Who knew that those people would react so strongly.

No concentration! Hmm! No concentration! If you want to be the Princess of Su, you need to practice more! Su Bei thought secretly.

Chu Younan smelled a strong smell of vinegar.

The second game is chess, which is a bit troublesome. The six people are divided into three groups, and the three winners draw lots to compete until the last person is decided.

Su Bei's eyes rolled, and he left some room when he made his move, barely winning half a piece against Wu Hanjiao.

Only Jiang Ruwei, Zhao Feilan and Su Bei were left on the field.

Jiang Ruwei had defeated her opponent by 22 pieces before, so she drew first. She drew a blank lot in one go, which meant she only had to wait for Su Bei and Zhao Feilan to play against each other, and then choose the winner.

Su Bei looked embarrassed.

Xue Jinrong frowned, "She can't even play chess?"

Chu Youyang frowned, "I didn't see her being so worried during the previous palace banquet competition. Could it be that the guys on the stage are too powerful?"

Chu Younan turned around and nodded solemnly, "Yes! This time the opponent is too strong!"

After saying that, he looked at the stage again, clenched his right hand into a fist, and pursed the corners of his lips.

Discussions broke out everywhere.

"I heard that Prime Minister Jiang's eldest daughter is well-educated and well-mannered, and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, especially chess!"

"Yeah! It was too noisy around here, so she lost the piano. She probably won't be able to play chess anymore."

"Right, right, right! Look at those two opponents, they are already scared. I'm afraid they can't win at all!"

When Su Bei heard this, his brows furrowed even more tightly, and he thought for a long time before making a move.

Zhao Feilan is full of ambitions. Even if she can't get the first place, at least she can get the second place and gain a reputation as a talented woman second only to the first place. It will be natural for her to become the Goddess of Flowers next year.

"Just admit defeat! I'm about to win!" Zhao Feilan looked at the chessboard triumphantly.

Yes, Su Bei’s chess pieces are about to be surrounded by her again. How many pieces are there in this large area?
