Before Chen Anning could move, the lady next to Meng Zheng couldn't wait to say: "Miss Chen, it's too late to give up now. Anyway, all the ladies who came to the banquet today know that you grew up in the countryside and know nothing." It’s normal.”
As she spoke, she purposely glanced around to seek approval from other ladies.
There was a young lady who was not afraid of trouble and immediately agreed.
"Second Miss Chen doesn't want to admit defeat," another young lady beside Meng Zheng said, "You can also ask other ladies to help you compete. I believe Miss Meng Fourth will not mind."
Meng Zheng glanced at Princess Tongchang and said haughtily: "I really don't mind."
"If I give up in advance or ask for help, I don't know my level. How can Miss Meng Si give me some advice?" Chen Anning stood up calmly and asked Princess Tongchang, "Would you rather wait for me here or follow me?" Together?"
Princess Tongchang immediately stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
After passing through the layers of waiting ladies, Chen Anning walked onto the arch bridge leading to the stage in the middle of the lake.
"How about I help you." After getting off the arch bridge and standing on the stage in the middle of the lake, Princess Tongchang whispered, "If I want to lose, I will lose. I'm not afraid of embarrassment."
Chen Anning comforted her: "Relax, I'm not afraid of embarrassment."
"But in two days it will be your betrothal gift," Princess Tongchang advised. "Although you don't mind the criticism from others, it won't sound good."
besides.
She doesn't care, but what about the Guangling Palace?
"If it doesn't sound good, then don't listen." Chen Anning told the maid who came, "It's the same as Miss Meng Si."
After the maid left, Princess Tongchang still wanted to persuade her, but seeing that she had already made up her mind, she had no choice but to shut up and step aside.
Just glancing at both sides of the lake, her heart couldn't help but sink.
Seeing that the musical instruments and bookcases had not been moved away during Meng Zheng's performance, but that Chen Anning had already sat in front of the piano, many ladies laughed in mockery or to watch the excitement.
The lady next to Meng Zheng laughed the hardest.
——"No way, does she want to imitate Miss Meng Si and use all the instruments?"
——"It's so funny, can she? Who does she think she is?"
——"Of course it's Miss Chen Er who knows that her sister is engaged to the grandson, and still rushes to please her."
——"I really don't know why Mr. Xie fell in love with her?"
——"How else can I fall in love with her? Haven't you heard the rumors on the streets? I can only say that Sir Xie is kind-hearted, and in order to protect her reputation, he has to marry her as a last resort."
--"here we go."
Chen Anning had martial arts skills, so she heard most of the discussions on the lake shore, but she didn't care. Putting his hands on the piano, he lightly picked the strings with his fingertips and plucked a few notes at random.
She can't play the piano herself.
The one who can play the piano is the original owner of the body.
The disciples of Yaowang Valley have always been good at more than just medical skills.
Music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, poetry, etc. must be learned.
The original owner of the body was the last disciple of Liu Xiuzhu and Yin Xiruo. In all aspects, the two of them had stricter requirements on her than the previous disciples of Yaowang Valley.
Therefore, the original owner's attainments in other areas are no worse than medical skills.
It's just that she never showed it.
——"It's so funny. Did you hear what she was playing?"
——"Keep your voice down, this is the Guangling Prince's Palace. Although Mr. Xie was forced to marry her, it's ridiculous that he is too loud, and the Guangling Prince's Palace will feel embarrassed to some extent."
——"If I were her, I would jump into the lake."
——"So you are not as thick-skinned as others."
Amidst all kinds of ridicule, Chen Anning closed his eyes slightly and started.
She also plays high mountains and flowing water.
——"She also plays "High Mountains and Flowing Waters".
——“You can do whatever you want, but you’re not afraid of making others laugh!”
Seeing Chen Anning playing the mountain and flowing water, Meng Zheng raised one corner of her mouth in disdain at first, but soon she was horrified!
Many people praised her for playing the piano well.
Only her father never praised her.
Her father praised her for her superb piano skills, but she lacked basic "emotion".
Her father said her piano sound was like a soulless puppet.
She has listened to her father's piano and knows the gap between her and her father, but she does not feel that what she lacks is love.
She always thought that what she lacked was just the accumulation of time.
When she reaches her father's age, she will naturally be able to play piano music that is as moving as his father, or even more moving than him.
But now!
The mountain water that Chen Anning played was almost exactly the same as the mountain water that her father played!
Even more touching than her father's!
Meng Zheng was shocked at first, and then couldn't believe it.
Her hands were clutching her palms tightly.
impossible!
She is just a country girl, there is no way she can play better than her!
The wonderful thing about music is: whether you understand it or not, as long as it is good music, it can always make you empathize.
Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether Meng Zhengcheng admits it or not.
The ladies who had previously laughed or planned to watch the fun gradually became quiet.
Everyone looked at the stage in the middle of the lake with either surprise, horror or disbelief, or as expected.
——"How did she..."
The young lady next to Meng Zheng wanted to speak, but was held back by another young lady.
After playing the music, Chen Anning sat down in front of the guzheng again.
There are still mountains and flowing water.
Then pipa, flute...
She used all the musical instruments that Meng Zheng had used.
And like her, they are all mountains and rivers.
There is no need to declare the difference between superior and inferior, there is already a winner and a loser.
There are still books and paintings left.
Princess Tongchang lost half of her heart and immediately became excited again.
lake shore.
Meng Zheng looked at her intently, she couldn't believe that she could surpass her in everything!
——"Her calligraphy and painting must not be good. If she is good at everything, how could she not show off at all after coming to the capital for almost two years?"
--"that is."
A remote place in the southeast corner of Xingyuan.
The eldest princess looked at the surprised and distressed Princess Guangling, and said with a smile: "Are you relieved now?"
Princess Guangling looked in the direction of the stage in the middle of the lake and asked in a low voice: "Did you know this a long time ago?"
"Then you really have wronged me." The eldest princess sighed softly, "I only know that she cured my old headache and her medical skills are very good. The other things are really not..."
After hearing only half of what she said, Princess Guangling looked back at her.
The eldest princess suddenly smiled and said: "I should have known it a long time ago. She always followed Mr. Xie around to investigate and solve cases, so much so that I even forgot that she played chess with Qin Sang, and Qin Sang lost to her. .”
Princess Guangling said: "In other words, her chess skills are also very good?"
The eldest princess said: "I don't know whether he is good or not. I only know that Qin Sang's chess skills are unrivaled in the Imperial College."
"What a wonderful person." Princess Guangling had a smile in her eyes, with a hint of pity, "I really don't know how much hardship she had to endure to develop this skill."
While the two were talking.
Chen Anning has finished writing and painting.
Not surprisingly.
She also wrote the words "mountain and flowing water" and painted "mountain and flowing water".
She even used the same font as Meng Zheng and painted the same picture as Meng Zheng!
