Lin Yingxin placed her hands on her abdomen, and suddenly clenched her fingers tightly. She slowly closed her eyes. Wen Xinya's "Ten-Li Ambush" is more difficult than "The Best of the Best", and it is a test of technique and fingering, especially the eighth section, the battle of Jiuli Mountain. I can use all kinds of fingering techniques with almost no interruption, constantly changing, converting, alternating, and even superimposing. Even though she is proud of her superb piano skills, she can't achieve such perfection as Wen Xinya.
Wen Xinya used the guqin to challenge the pipa piece "Ten Sides of Ambush", and was able to interpret the various artistic conceptions that only pipa pieces can express. This is beyond the explanation of techniques and instructions. It depends on superb piano skills. She is proud of her high attainments in guqin, but still does not dare to think about challenging.
At this moment, she almost bit her teeth off. Xia Ruya said that Wen Wenya was poisoned by the mandrake. The mandrake poison would affect Wen Wenya's mind. Wen Wenya would definitely lose this game. It was all nonsense. Wen Wenya was not poisoned at all, otherwise she would not be able to play such a difficult piece of music. She was deceived by Xia Ruya. Xia Ruya clearly wanted to harm her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel dejected.
Now that she had lost the competition, the reputation she had worked so hard to build up over the years was gone in one day. She had used her reputation as the winner of the last Thousand Gold Banquet to enhance Wen Xinya's reputation, and Wen Xinya's reputation was well deserved.
When people mention Wen Xinya, they will inevitably say: "Look, Wen Xinya even defeated Lin Yingxin, the champion of the Qianjin Banquet!"
She looked at Xia Ruya with hatred. She didn't know how she had offended Xia Ruya. Why would she hurt her like this? She felt indescribable regret in her heart.
At this time, Xia Ruya's mood was not very good.
Even though she was not good at playing the piano, she could still tell who was better between Wen Xinya and Lin Yingxin, and who was winning and who was losing. She was so shocked that it was simply unbelievable. How could this be possible
She had clearly planned it out. At this time, Wen Xinya's Mandrake poison had already taken effect. The Mandrake poison would affect her spirit and then her performance, and she would eventually be defeated by Lin Yingxin.
But Wen Xinya's appearance at this moment did not look like she was poisoned by the mandrake poison at all. What was going on? Which link in her calculated conspiracy went wrong? Could it be that Wen Xinya was not poisoned
No, it was impossible. She saw Wen Xinya use the tea and pastries with her own eyes. There was no way she wasn't poisoned.
Could it be that Wen Xinya knew that the tea and pastries had been tampered with, so she didn't really use the tea and pastries, but deliberately pretended to use them to paralyze them
Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Wen Xinya couldn't have known that she would tamper with her tea and pastries. There was no way she could have known her plan.
What is going on
Xia Ruya looked like a madman, staring at Wen Xinya, trying to find out something from her face.
Xia Ruya's eyes were as wet and cold as a poisonous snake. How could Wen Xinya not feel it? She raised her eyes and looked at Xia Ruya steadily, with a cold warning flashing in her eyes.
Xia Ruya suddenly realized that she had revealed her emotions and lost her composure in front of Wen Xinya. She panickedly withdrew her gaze and lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Pa-pa-pa-" sparse applause sounded unevenly.
Everyone was awakened by the applause, and then more people started to applaud.
The applause of "pa pa pa pa" was like thunder. Everyone in the audience clapped their hands excitedly, clapping with such force that they almost used up all their strength.
The applause lasted for a long time.
A judge who is good at playing the guqin said excitedly, "This piece of music, 'Ten Miles of Ambush', is the most challenging in terms of technique, fingering, and attainment in guqin skills. Everyone knows that the guqin has a long and simple tone, and is not suitable for playing the intense and emotional 'Ten Miles of Ambush'. However, Miss Wen used the guqin to interpret the thrilling sound that can only be played by the pipa. Her guqin attainments have reached perfection."
The owner of Boyaxuan also said: "The most difficult part of this song "Ten Miles of Ambush" is that various techniques are transformed, converted, alternated, superimposed, and there are various changes in the fingering. If you are not a person with superb qin skills, you can't play such a varied song."
Several judges also praised it highly.
As if she had forgotten that Lin Yingxin had played a song called "Yangchun Baixue" before, after hearing such a gripping song, Lin Yingxin's piano music seemed a bit mediocre.
When it comes to cutting and rubbing, the winner can be determined at one stroke, but the winner and loser, as well as the superior and inferior, are all in everyone's mind.
Lin Yingxin has already lost.
Wen Xinya, a talent in four arts, overwhelmed Lin Yingxin, who won the first place in two arts at the previous Qianjin Banquet.
Du Ruoxin rarely turned on the mocking mode, and said in a calm tone: "Your piano skills are really good."
Wen Xinya glanced at her but said nothing.
Wen Xinya was not surprised by this result. Anyone who understands the art of playing the zither could tell that the song "Yang Chun Bai Xue" that Lin Yingxin had just played was full of chaotic sounds and mixed piano scents, which was a sign of her being in a state of confusion. She did not play the song at her true level.
Losing is only natural.
Xia Ruya lowered her head, her thoughts a little confused.
In order to plot against Wen Xinya at the Qianjin Banquet, she had put a lot of effort into it, even exposing the trump card of the owner of Boya Xuan. But in the end, it was all in vain.
Wen Xinya did not lose the piano competition.
Wen Xinya did not lose control of her emotions due to the attack of the datura poison, and did not get a reputation for being irritable and arrogant.
She did manage to recover 10% thanks to her flower tea skills, laying the foundation for clearing her reputation.
However, because Wen Xinya did not fall into her trap, the plan was only half completed.
Listening to the people below discussing how talented Wen Xinya was, the jealousy, resentment and resentment in her heart overwhelmed her like a tide, making her sink deeply into dark and slippery emotions.
"It has been a long time since a talented woman with four arts appeared in the scholarly families of the capital. Wen Xinya is indeed amazing. Although there are many truly talented women who were unable to attend the Qianjin Banquet, her level is not inferior to those people."
"There were many rumors about her in the capital before. I thought she was just a name for nothing. I didn't expect that she was actually so talented. I guess those rumors were just malicious slander against her."
"I have been learning music, chess, calligraphy and painting from my grandmother since I was young, and it has been more than ten years now. However, Wen Xinya used to be a wanderer, and has only been learning from Mr. Mo for more than three years, but she has achieved such success. It is true that comparison makes one feel depressed!"
"Who made her have a grandfather who is a great scholar in the literary world?"
"You can't say that. To paraphrase what Du Ruoxin said before, even if you have a grandfather who is a great scholar in the literary world, it doesn't necessarily mean you can become a talented woman who is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting!"
"Haha, that's true... someone has been Mr. Mo's granddaughter for twelve years, but she still hasn't become a talented woman..."
