Chapter 1457: Winning the championship in one fell swoop
Ximen Yuqing listened, but only smiled faintly, and didn't seem to take Shangguan Yun's words to heart. The attitude towards Bai Qingxue is still the same.
Shangguan Yun also introduced several talented women and beauties who were somewhat famous in the imperial city to Lin Wan, who were nothing more than some arrogant and arrogant daughters.
Lin Wan listened to Shangguan Yun's evaluation of these women, and only smiled slightly, and knew the two aunts and nephews of Concubine Jin and Bai Qingxue, as well as these young ladies who had offended Shangguan Yun.
In the palace, there are many women like Concubine Jin and Bai Qingxue, who belong to the kind of women who are both smart and ambitious. Most of the women in the palace know how to protect themselves, learn to be inconsistent, and learn to conspire and calculate. But it's just some poor woman who can't help herself.
I want to survive in the palace, I want to occupy a place in the harem, and I want to be favored by the emperor. Either you have the means to capture the emperor's heart, and in that case, you can only be pampered and arrogant in the palace for a while, because you will soon be replaced by the emperor's new favor; or, it is to be a well-behaved and sensible, gentle and virtuous woman, and a smart woman who understands people's hearts, wins the emperor's respect and pity, slowly climbs up step by step, works hard, calculates carefully, and finally becomes the most noble woman in the harem, just like Concubine Jin.
Lin Wan admired this Concubine Jin, but she was also defensive. Secretly, I hope that this Concubine Jin will not be smart and confused for a while, and will not ruin the power and status that she has worked hard for half her life to help her nephew ascend to the throne.
After running around the lake, Lin Wan and Shangguan Yun were already tired and sweaty, and they were out of breath. After saying that, they went back to their rooms to bathe and change their clothes, and then went to the water pavilion to meet.
When Lin Wan finished freshening up and came to the lake again, he saw that Shangguan Yun, Zhou Chengkuan, and Jin Ruoxin were already sitting in the water pavilion drinking tea and eating pastries.
Lin Wan was in a good mood today, so she asked Bing'er to prepare a piano case by the lake, so she took the initiative to stroke the piano for everyone, and invited everyone to taste it.
Everyone naturally readily agreed, so Lin Wan sat under the willow tree by the lake and played a song "Spring and White Snow" for everyone.
Although it is a guqin song that everyone has heard, Lin Wan has added some modern elements and has many changes in the rhythm, which makes everyone refreshed.
The fresh and smooth melody and lively and brisk rhythm seem to vividly show a picture of winter going to spring, the earth recovering, everything is thriving, and the early spring scene is full of vitality.
Such a song "Spring and White Snow" made Jin Ruoxin's eyes light up, and he was excited, and couldn't help but get up and walk to the lake, exchange places with Lin Wan, and try it according to Lin Wan's adaptation just now.
Jin Ruoxin's attainments in piano skills are certainly not comparable to Lin Wan, although Lin Wan can have a lot of novel ideas and changes in style, but there are still many things that can be learned from Jin Ruoxin in terms of skills.
Therefore, after Jin Ruoxin finished playing a song, Lin Wan really benefited a lot. And Zhou Chengkuan, Shangguan Yun and others are very blessed. It is really eye-opening to be able to enjoy the performance of the piano music of the two great masters of ancient and modern times at the same time.
The sound of the piano is melodious, drifting away with the wind, drifting over the temple, floating over the lake, and drifting over the mountains. It is also like a fairy music in the sky, accidentally through the clouds, and drifted down to the world.
And at this moment, the beauties who heard the sound of the piano were a little more worried in their hearts. Although the two pieces were not played in the same style, it was obvious that they were not played by one person, although they did not know where such a beautiful sound came from or who played it. However, no matter who it is, with such extraordinary piano skills, it will definitely shine at the concubine selection feast. However, I originally planned to perform the piano, wouldn't I be compared?
And Lin Wan and Jin Ruoxin stopped playing a song, but they were not yet happy, and they sang again. Lin Wan didn't know what songs could be sung in this era, so he chose an ancient style "When will the bright moon be there at the beginning of the water tune song".
Lin Wan first played and sang to herself, and after Jin Ruoxin listened to it twice, she could help Lin Wan accompaniment. The two cooperated very tacitly, and after hearing Zhou Chengkuan's nods and praises, Shangguan Yun's eyes lit up and he was excited.
Zhou Chengkuan hadn't heard this song, nor had he heard the lyrics, and thought that Lin Wan had written and composed the music himself, so he simply admired Lin Wan so much.
Of course, Lin Wan didn't dare to take credit, only said that the lyrics and songs were all made by a hidden master, and he just borrowed them.
Lin Wan sang softly in a low voice, and the people outside naturally couldn't hear it clearly, and could only vaguely hear some very novel tunes. But people can't help but secretly look forward to it, hoping to hear such a curious and extremely anticipated performance at the concubine selection feast. I can't help but secretly guess in my heart, who is this person who plays the piano?
The sound of the qin came out of the palace, and those who lived in the palace were not only the concubines in the harem, and Bai Qingxue, who had already lived in the palace of Concubine Jin, but also Princess Wan, Princess Qinxin, Princess Heshuo, and Princess Hongde.
These people are all talented women, and it is not surprising that anyone can play such a piano sound. However, Jingtai Hall is the closest to Wanxin Palace, of course he knows that the sound of the piano comes from Wanxin Palace, and naturally he also knows that the people who play it must be Jin Ruoxin and Lin Wan.
Lu Manting is most familiar with Lin Wan's music style, and she knows which song was played by Lin Wan and which one was played by Jin Ruoxin. also patiently answered the questions raised by Hong Xiaotian next to him, and told Hong Xiaotian about the scene when she and Lin Wan participated in the Qixi banquet together.
Since that incident happened, Hong Xiaotian has settled down a lot, not only trying to avoid Lan Ziheng, but also obeying the arrangement of the emperor of Nanyue, and wholeheartedly preparing to win the championship in the concubine selection banquet.
Of course, this is also the result that Lu Manting and Lan Ziheng want to see. Originally, Lan Ziheng was still full of fantasies about Hong Xiaotian, but since that incident, he has gradually lost interest in Hong Xiaotian.
And since Lu Manting and Lan Ziheng became husband and wife, they have become more and more favored by Lan Ziheng. She is not only cheerful, beautiful and generous, left and right, virtuous and generous, but also takes care of Hong Xiaotian meticulously, and guesses Lan Ziheng's mind meticulously. Ling Lan Ziheng almost saw all the advantages that a queen should have in her.
The thing that happened in the Jingtai Palace, but not many people knew about it, and Hong Xiaotian's palace sand was still there. In addition, with the support of Nanyue and King Qi and others, she still has a lot of hope if she wants to get the position of the crown princess of Xiling Kingdom.
