Chapter 105: Smooth and Melodic

Soon enough, the imperial servants brought out two Guqins.

Liu Rushuang calmly walked over to the instruments, then gracefully sat behind one.

In her mind, Chu Qingchuan snorted, as she took a seat behind one of the Guqins.

“Fifth Princess of Donghua, since the Guqins have been prepared. Let’s start this competition! I’ll allow you to choose a song first!” cried Liu Rushuang as she sounded out every word with a terrifyingly cold voice.

Chu Qingchuan couldn’t help but feel flustered at the look of near victory on Liu Rushuang’s face. Then, she steadied her wavering heart and smiled with confidence. “Alright, I’m ready now. Please allow me to start first.”

“Yes, as you please,” Liu Rushuang replied nonchalantly.

Han Moze watched as Liu Rushuang’s little mouth and throat moved. After everything, he was unable to keep it together in front of this woman! How truly strange!

Nangong Ba gazed at Liu Rushuang with confidence and composure. There was undoubtedly adoration in his eyes for her performance. If he knew that she was going to be taken away, then he would have imprisoned her for life by his side. Although he knew he was going to definitely win, he wasn’t willing to risk losing her.

Chu Qingchuan held her most elegant seated posture, then started to play a sweet melody on the Guqin with her slender and beautiful fingers.

The bright and beautiful sound of the Guqin rang, then gradually surged like running water and filled every corner of the hall.

Each and every person felt like they saw dazzing flowers bloom for the first time before their eyes and unleash an aromatic scent which made people feel drunk.

All of a sudden, the Guqin sounds grew more suave and smooth like winding mountain springs from the valley. It slowly ran into people’s heart and taught them how to be carefree and relaxed.

Thereafter, Chu Qingchuan raised her hands up high and played again. All of a sudden, everyone saw the unusually beautiful sight of countless petals fall.

*Chirp chirp…* All of a sudden, a little bird flew into the hall, encircled Chu Qingchuan and emphasised the extraordinary powers of the Guqin.

Liu Rushuang’s eyes couldn’t help but slightly widen. It looked like Chu Qingchuan’s Guqin skills were indeed well-deserved of her reputation.

“Amazing! Truly spectacular!”

“She’s really able to summon small birds! How incredible!”

“This is the first time I’ve ever heard the Guqin being played so beautifully!”

Chu Qingchuan was really satisfied with the reaction from everyone in the hall, so she played even harder.

But she seemed to have been over enthusiastic, as the high-ranking officials heard the rustling of the cold wind blow against the trees.

The little bird who flew into the hall with much difficulty flapped his small wings and flew off in a flash!

Chu Qingchuan was so shocked that she hurriedly changed it up.

The song ended.

*Clap! Clap…* “Amazing! Amazing!” Everyone figured that Chu Qingchuan’s Guqin skills were the best in the world, and clapped enthusiastically.

But just then, they were instantly sent into such shock that their jaws dropped.

Liu Rushuang had started to play, and she sounded even more pure and sweet than Chu Qingchuan.

Everyone in the hall shared the same thought.

Seated elegantly in position, Liu Rushuang lowered her hands and played softly with her slender fingers.

She used her inner breath with every pluck and spread the sound of the Guqin far and wide.

All of a sudden, the soft and beautiful melody felt like little drops of rain that moistened the fields in everyone’s hearts.

What surprised people even more was the non-stop birds and butterflies that flew into the hall.

Everyone’s eyes shot wide open. It was simply divine!

She played for just a short while when a big flock of birds flew in. It was really amazing!

Liu Rushuang ignored everyone’s astonishment and smiled softly. Her hands played the Guqin slowly and gently.

The Guqin sounded clear and radiant like a stream of cold spring water which sparkled and flowed over crushed rocks.

Suddenly, it felt like the sound drifted in mid-air like springs.

*Chirp chirp…* All of a sudden hundreds of birds abruptly flew into the hall and encircled Liu Rushuang.

This was too much!
