Su Yan replied, “Guang Pingwang is already mine. Why should I compete with you?”

Gu Ruoyun, who was about to make a move, stopped moving when he saw Su Yan’s protective look.

Jin Tong glared at Su Yan and said, “Guang Pingwang said that he would marry me. I’m his true love.”

Su Yan looked at Gu Ruoyun in surprise and raised her brows to threaten him.

Gu Ruoyun raised both of his hands to show that he was innocent.

Being provoked like this, Su Yan asked, “What do you want to compete in?”

Jin Tong glanced at her from head to toe and said disdainfully, “I know that all the ladies in the imperial court know how to play the zither. Competing with you in dancing is bullying you. How about we compete in the zither?”

Su Yan smiled and said, “Sure.”

Jin Tong was satisfied and full of confidence.

The seventh princess of Kingdom Jin, Jin Tong, was famous not only for her beauty, but also for her exquisite dance and zither skills. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Everyone felt that Su Yan was bound to lose.

A servant brought two zithers and placed them in front of the two of them.

This round was a zither competition. Both sides had their own set of songs and each played their own.

Jin Tong took the lead and began to play. A soft melody slowly flowed out. Everyone closed their eyes and immersed themselves in her gentle emotions.

Just as everyone was so intoxicated that they had forgotten that this was a competition, a passionate voice cut in.

Su Yan’s fingers flipped, and her hand speed was so fast that there were afterimages. Suddenly, her speed slowed down again.

The sound of the zither made everyone’s heartbeat slow down, and they followed her rhythm.

Su Yan’s hand unconsciously moved, and the scene at the border was gradually depicted in front of her eyes.

The grief of the refugees who had lost their homes and their helplessness in the face of war were depicted one by one.

The scene changed. The soldiers were bathed in the blood of the battlefield. The sound of drums reverberated through the sky and the clanging of swords and blades.

The martial generals present were all stirred up by the sound of the zither. The civil officials who had never been on the battlefield could not help but feel a surge of emotion.

Jin Tong had long stopped what she was doing and looked at Su Yan with a complicated expression.

When the song was over, Su Yan immediately looked at Gu Ruoyun. She had made this song for Gu Ruoyun.

Of course, Gu Ruoyun understood what she meant.

The two looked at each other affectionately and Jin Tong ran out to spoil the moment, “I’ve lost.”

She then said unwillingly, “But you’ve to let me meet Guang Pingwang. I have something to say to him.”

Su Yan looked at Gu Ruoyun and looked at Jin Tong strangely, “Isn’t he here?”

Jin Tong turned to look at the people around her. It was Gu Ruoyun who had brushed past her. She then turned to look at Su Yan and frowned, “How could I not know him? He’s not even here. Where did you hide him?”

Su Yan’s expression was strange. She looked straight at Gu Ruoyun and said, “You probably don’t know him.”

Jin Tong followed her gaze and looked a little confused.

Gu Ruoyun shrugged at Su Yan and said, “It really has nothing to do with me.”

This turn of events was something that no one had expected. The person who had said that he wanted to marry Guang Pingwang did not know him at all.

The farce had ended. The Kingdom Jin’s emissary felt that Jin Tong was a disgrace and forcefully dragged her back.

On the other hand, the third prince, Jin Yueling, had a completely different attitude from his earlier cold attitude. His eyes were burning as he looked at Su Yan.

Nalan Chen looked at Jin Tong boy with admiration and said with a smile, “Princess Consort Guang Pingwang’s zither skills are immersive, but the seventh princess’ zither music is intoxicating. It is a unique beauty in the world.”

The Kingdom Jin’s envoys all humbly praised Su Yan’s zither skills when they saw this.

The awkward scene was finally over.

Nalan Chen said again, “The seventh princess has just come to our imperial kingdom. If you are willing, you can stay in the imperial palace. If you have time, let Princess Zhaoyang take you around.”

Zhaoyang, who had been mentioned, smiled and nodded.

Faced with this obvious olive branch, Jin Tong said, “I want to stay in the Guang Residence.”

The scene fell silent for a moment.

Nalan Chen calmly and hastily ended the banquet.

Su Yan and Gu Ruoyun naturally would not agree to Jin Tong’s request.. In the end, Jin Tong still stayed in the embassy.
