Chapter 43 I am the adulterer!
Jiang Wanning sneered.
"You're not qualified enough to make me admit defeat."
The woman in green was furious.
"you--"
"Alright, Sister Rumei," Princess Rong'an stepped forward, grabbed her sleeve, and taunted her, "Don't argue with her. She's probably just trying to piss you off because she's afraid of losing face to you later!"
Hearing this, the woman in green looked relieved and sat back in front of the piano table.
Under the seat.
Seeing Jiang Wanning raise her hand, pretending to play the zither, Shen Yutang nervously grabbed Murong Qing's hand. "Qing'er, do you think Mother will win? I don't remember her ever playing this instrument before..."
Murong Qing looked at Jiang Wanning with a firm gaze, even with a hint of admiration.
"My mother is very powerful. She won't lose to anyone."
In the future, she will also be a woman like her mother, hone her talents and character, and use enough confidence to create a world for herself and her children, and never live under the yoke of others again.
Thinking of this, Murong Qing raised his hand and patted the back of Shen Yutang's hand.
"Take your hands away and don't sit so close to me... You're disturbing me from listening to my mother playing the zither."
Shen Yutang: "..."
Why does it feel like he is annoying?
It was clear that Qing'er's eyes were full of him before, but now there is only her mother in her eyes, and there is not even a little room for him.
Uncomfortable.
…
On stage.
Jiang Wanning placed his hands on the strings of the zither, as if he was in an empty space, and plucked the strings so quickly that one couldn't even see the shadows of his hands!
This time, she did not play that creepy tune, but instead played a very grand and inspiring song called "Fuxi Shentian Xiang".
If the zither played by the woman in green just now can be called heavenly music.
The song played by Jiang Wanning could probably be called "A Fight between Gods"!
As his fingertips passed by, the thirteen strings suddenly burst out with golden sounds, first like Pangu splitting the sky and splitting the rocks, and then the string sounds turned into thousands of thunders that exploded in everyone's ears, setting off huge waves!
Everyone present was stunned on the spot.
Even looking at it makes me dumbfounded.
Because they were completely confused and couldn't grasp how Jiang played the piano.
Is this the speed a human can achieve?
Everyone has two hands, so why are her hands different from others?!
“It’s so shocking…”
"Oh my god, can the Yao Zheng be played like this?!"
"I feel like the zither is about to smoke."
"I think I saw two gods fighting. No...it was a group of gods fighting."
"I want to commit suicide."
"If she plays the zither, then what am I playing..."
…
After playing a song, Jiang Wanning looked up and saw that everyone was stunned. They looked at her as if they had seen a ghost.
The expression of the woman in green was extremely ugly, as if she had suffered great frustration.
However, deep in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel a hint of excitement and admiration.
"Girl? Girl?"
Jiang Wanning stretched out his hand in front of her and waved it twice before calling back her consciousness, and then asked.
"What do you think of my playing of this piece?"
"I...I lost..."
The woman in green hesitated and her lips trembled slightly, as if she could hardly accept such a blow, but she was proud of herself and knew that she was not as skilled as the other person, so she would not shamelessly compete with words.
Jiang Wanning nodded slightly, thinking that although this child was not careful in choosing friends, his character was not too bad.
Turning her head, she looked at Princess Ruyang again and raised her eyebrows.
"What do you think, Princess?"
Princess Ruyang tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand. Seeing her smug look, she almost bit her teeth to pieces.
Of course she didn't want to admit that Jiang had won.
But everyone present was no layman, and they could tell which guzheng piece was better. Moreover, Jiang's music and fingering skills were far beyond Liu Rumei's current level... It could even be said that the gap was huge!
Just as Princess Ruyang pursed her lips and hesitated.
The woman in green suddenly knelt down in front of Jiang Wanning, pulled her sleeve, raised her head and looked at her with sharp eyes.
"Madam Hou, please accept me as your disciple!"
Jiang Wanning was startled by her action and took half a step back.
"Ah, this?"
Wouldn’t this be a bad idea?
She was only here to collect treasures, not to accept disciples.
Princess Rong'an was furious and walked up to the woman in green, pulling her away. She didn't expect that her good sister would betray her and defect to the enemy camp.
"Sister Rumei, why are you kneeling before her? We don't even know where she stole this song from! How could a woman like her, a woman in seclusion, write such a majestic war song?! It sounds like it was written by a man, maybe one of her adulterers..."
Before Princess Rong'an could finish her words, a clear voice came from behind the crowd and interrupted her.
"It was done by an adulterer like me, what can the princess do?!"
Hearing the sound, everyone turned around.
Then Shen Yan was seen striding in from outside the courtyard. His handsome and cold eyes revealed the murderous aura unique to a general, making people dare not raise their eyes and look him in the face.
Princess Rong'an felt a chill down her spine when she was swept by his cold gaze. She immediately shut her mouth and dared not continue to talk nonsense.
"My Lord, why are you here?"
Jiang Wanning knew that Shen Yan said this to help her out, so she didn't continue arguing with Princess Rong'an.
After all, if this rumor gets out, those gossipers will definitely be more willing to believe that she has an "adulterer" who is behind her and giving her advice.
Besides, this song was not written by her, so she couldn't shamelessly use someone else's credit for it.
Meeting Jiang Wanning's gaze, Shen Yan's expression immediately softened, and even the tone of his voice softened, completely losing the sharpness he had just had.
"It's getting late. I happened to be passing by the palace and heard Madam playing the zither, so I came in to see... Did Madam enjoy playing?"
"My Lord, you're here early! I just opened my shop and I've already won a zither and a zheng..."
Jiang Wanning looked dissatisfied.
Then he turned to look at the people sitting below and asked, "Does anyone else want to come up and compete? Let's have a quick fight before the sun sets."
Everyone was suddenly shocked and shook their heads like rattles.
"No, no!"
"My skills are so poor that I dare not embarrass myself in front of Madam!"
"I-I twisted my hand!"
"Master, please accept me as your disciple and bow three times!"
"Hey, why are you like this? Did my master agree to you? Just worship her. She is my master! Not your master!"
…
Jiang Wanning: “???”
No, she didn’t say she wanted to accept a disciple!
Seeing everyone vying to become Jiang's disciples, and seeing that they were usually very arrogant, now they were like puppies wagging their tails, circling around Jiang, Princess Rong'an was so angry that her face was distorted.
"These spineless people, I invited them here for nothing!"
Murong Yan'er was naturally unhappy, but she managed to keep her composure and just reminded him in a low voice.
"Don't be upset, Princess... Don't forget, our main event is coming next."
