Chapter 124: Volume 1, Chapter 124: Who Else Could Be the One to Ruin the Scenery Besides Yun Qiyue?

The musical instrument Qin Jiayan chose was the Konghou, and she was the first to perform.

In red clothes, with a golden Konghou, Qin Jiayan sat there, and her temperament was settled, different from her previous publicity; at this time, she was as elegant as an immortal, as bright as the sun.

As her fingers plucked, the sound like a clear spring in the snow mountain poured out, hitting people's hearts directly.

The piece was one that no one in Donglin Kingdom had heard before, but it gave people a feeling of clarity; just when everyone thought it was just like this, it suddenly turned, the sound became ethereal, making people unable to help but wander with it, as if entering a dream world.

As the song ended, everyone seemed not to have reacted from it yet; Qin Jiayan looked at everyone's performance very satisfied, the corners of her lips slightly raised.

No one in Donglin knew that what she was best at wasn't dance, but this Konghou, which looked very difficult.

In terms of Konghou, she considered herself second; who dared to consider themselves first?

Even when Qi Xue came back to her senses, Qi Xue's face was a bit solemn.

Expert! This is an expert!

In Qi Xue's mind, this sentence emerged at this time.

And she didn't have the certainty of winning.

Because, music, it doesn't just look at sound, it also looks at the influence on people's hearts.

Why do people listen to music? Not just to listen with their ears, but to cultivate their sentiments and make their mood happy.

With this complex emotion, Qi Xue walked to the musical instrument.

Standing in front of the pipa, Qi Xue thought for a long, long time.

Everyone thought Qi Xue would choose the pipa, but Qi Xue bypassed the pipa and chose the zither.

The crowd was surprised!

Zither?

Qi Xue wasn't best at the pipa, why did she choose the zither?

Just when everyone was puzzled, Qi Xue plucked the strings.

The music started, either elegant or lively or delicate, the melody was smooth.

Those who listened to the zither seemed to enter a world of soft colors, elegant and clear ink painting: a quiet night in spring, the moon rising from the east mountain, a small boat rippling on the river, the charming scenery of flower shadows swaying gently on both sides of the river.

The music entered the painting, and the painting expressed emotion, making people feel incomparably comfortable.

This song, everyone felt incomparably familiar, as if it were the pipa song "Sunset Flute and Drum," and this "Sunset Flute and Drum" was also Qi Xue's masterpiece, a famous song.

Played on the zither, it had a different flavor.

After the song, Qi Xue stood up, bowed to everyone indifferently, and smiled: "Everyone must find it very familiar; this is the zither song 'Spring River Flower Moon Night' adapted from the pipa song 'Sunset Flute and Drum'."

Upon hearing this, everyone was amazed by Qi Xue's talent.

However, the problem came.

Qin Jiayan played the Konghou, making people deeply trapped in it, and Qi Xue's zither was also adapted perfectly; who should be chosen as the first place between these two?

Everyone was caught in entanglement.

Emotionally, they had to choose Qi Xue, because Qi Xue was from Donglin Kingdom, and her playing truly made people unable to pick faults, and it truly made people feel as if they were on the scene.

However, the Konghou played by Qin Jiayan also made people trapped in it, unable to extricate themselves.

At this time, let alone others, even those four elders who acted as judges were very entangled.

At this time, no one had the heart to care about Yun Qiyue.

Because everyone felt that Yun Qiyue was just going up to lose face, and no one would feel that Yun Qiyue would win.

Therefore, when Yun Qiyue went on stage, only a few gazes were looking at her.

Ye Lanjue, naturally, paid attention to Yun Qiyue at any time; after all, in his opinion, among so many people present, no one was worth his extra attention.

Ouyang Xi also looked at Yun Qiyue with interest; he was very curious about which musical instrument Yun Qiyue would choose, and was even more looking forward to Yun Qiyue's performance.

And in the envoy groups of Xihai and Beiyan, there was a gaze fixed on Yun Qiyue, all with strong interest in their eyes, just like Ouyang Xi, looking forward to the performance of Yun Qiyue, whom others didn't look favorably upon.

A woman who dared to be so arrogant in front of the Donglin Emperor and Empress, and a woman who made the Donglin Regent look at her differently, only a fool would believe she was a waste.

Then, these gazes all saw Yun Qiyue standing in front of the pipa.

Could it be that she wanted to choose the pipa?

At this time, Qin Jiayan and Qi Xue also looked at Yun Qiyue together.

Qin Jiayan glanced at Qi Xue, and then it was an expression of watching a good show.

And Qi Xue, seeing that Yun Qiyue chose the pipa, had full disdain in her eyes.

The pipa was her strength; wasn't Yun Qiyue choosing the pipa looking for her own death? Did she think the pipa was easy to play?

Moreover, with Qin Jiayan's Konghou in front, even she, who considered herself the best at the pipa, didn't dare to use the pipa to participate in this competition; Yun Qiyue, what right did she think she could?

Watching Yun Qiyue really pick up the pipa, the mockery and contempt in Qi Xue's eyes grew deeper and deeper.

And at this time, Qi Xue discovered that Yun Qiyue was actually looking at her, as if provoking her.

She actually dared to provoke her at this time?

She wouldn't think that she was the one who played the pipa best, would she?

Qi Xue's face was very ugly.

"Zheng—" A harsh sound came, and everyone woke up from the struggle and entanglement of choosing who was first, or confused, or frowning at the stage.

When they saw clearly that the culprit was Yun Qiyue holding the pipa on stage, everyone's faces were full of black lines.

They knew, who else could be the one to ruin the scenery besides Yun Qiyue?

That "Zheng—" sound seemed to disturb all the beauty brought by the previous Konghou and zither music, making people feel as if they had eaten a fly, incomparably uncomfortable.

Yet, they dared not speak out.

What could they do? Yun Qiyue was protected by the Regent.

Facing everyone's angry glares, Yun Qiyue curled her lips; although there wasn't half a trace of apology on her face, she said: "Sorry, I'm not familiar with this pipa, let me communicate with it first."

The crowd: "..." Besides speechless, it was speechless.

Communicate with the pipa? Why don't you go to heaven?

Just when everyone was complaining and complaining in their hearts, Yun Qiyue's expression suddenly became serious.

Then, everyone heard a high-spirited, powerful, urgent, and tense piece of music pouring out from Yun Qiyue's hands.

Everyone's mind seemed to see the scene of pre-war exercises, ordering soldiers and generals, majestic and spectacular; the music completely created a tense atmosphere of sword-drawing and bow-stretching before the war.

Even those who didn't look favorably upon Yun Qiyue couldn't help but be immersed in it.

Then, Yun Qiyue's fingers plucked, swept, wheeled, twisted, rolled, and killed, describing the scene of close-quarters combat and sword shadows, all described through the pipa music, earth-shattering and heart-stirring.

Those generals who had experienced the battlefield, including Ye Lanjue, in Yun Qiyue's music, at this moment, seemed to be on the battlefield again.

After the tension and intensity, the music suddenly turned, becoming low and deep, forming a sharp contrast with the previous climax, making people immersed in a kind of sorrowful and tragic emotion; they seemed to see the image of a general singing a tragic song.

After the whole piece was completed, everyone only felt that it was rising and falling, and their emotions couldn't help but change with the music.

Some even shed tears of excitement because of the exciting scene, some shed tears of sadness for the tragic general, and some cheered for the victory.

In short, the music controlled all the emotions of the people present.

This song shocked the audience.

The people present couldn't come back to their senses for a long time!
