Duke Jing's younger sister

The scent is very unique, like sandalwood, but not as strong as sandalwood.

Old Lady Luo was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "Could this be... Qin Xiang?"

Everyone present looked at each other in confusion, what is Qinxiang?

I've never heard of it!

Influenced by his grandmother since childhood, Luo Cheng was fond of music and had read various ancient music books. He took a few steps closer and was pleasantly surprised by the rich fragrance.

"Yes, this is Qin Xiang!"

The so-called zither fragrance refers to the fragrance of the zither.

Not only does it require the player to have extremely high attainments in piano skills, but it also requires the piano to be of the best quality.

The player's fingertips pluck the strings, causing the strings to heat up, and the wood of the guitar is heated, naturally emitting a fragrance.

The fragrance is impacted by the waves of the piano and spreads along with the sound of the piano. This is the fragrance of the piano.

Others only know that the zither is a musical instrument, something to be listened to, but they don’t know that the zither also has fragrance.

After the song ended, Shen Li stood up and bowed,

"I am not good at singing, and I could not find the essence of this piece of music, 'Pingsha Luoyan'. I am grateful to my aunt for not abandoning my poor singing skills and lending me this excellent Jinghong Qin. I was able to play the music by chance."

Experts listen to the music of the piano, while laymen listen to the words.

After Shen Li said this, everyone present understood that the sound of the piano was not due to her superb piano skills, but because of this excellent Jinghong Qin.

Old Madam Luo's heart was as clear as a mirror. Shen Li said this only to save her face.

She studied the art of playing the zither for many years, but she only played it well once.

That happened more than 40 years ago. If the scene hadn't happened again today, she would have forgotten it completely.

After years of being immersed in the inner palace, she had long lost her original pursuit of the art of playing the piano. With a vulgar heart covered by wealth and fame, she was no longer able to play the piano that moved the heart.

Old Madam Luo had never looked at the adopted daughter of the Shen family with any respect, and she had never even really gotten close to Shen Zhiyan.

Shen Li had been in the Shen family for eight years, and it was not until this moment that Old Lady Luo began to carefully examine her features.

The girl in front of him was wearing a light red dress, with red lips and white teeth, delicate and soft facial features, and a pair of clear and bright eyes, like a clear spring, bright and pure.

There is tenderness in her eyes, which makes people feel good about her and want to get close to her.

"Good boy," Old Lady Luo took Shen Li's hand, "Who taught you to play the zither?"

Shen Li didn't know how to answer. Her piano... was taught by her father Jiang Minzhi.

Seeing that she was in a dilemma, Old Lady Luo stopped asking, "It's easy to get a good zither, but it's hard to find a good master. Today, Jinghong has finally found its master."

Yang heard the voice and stood up quickly, "Aunt, Li'er's piano skills are far inferior to yours, and her playing is just a coincidence."

"Whether it's accidental or not, I know best. From today on, this zither will be given to Shen Li!"

Shen Li was startled and looked at Luo Cheng for help.

"Mother..." Wenchang Marquis Luo Quanliang couldn't help but say, "That was a gift from the late emperor!"

He didn't understand what a mentor or a confidant was, he only knew that things bestowed by the emperor should not be given to others!

Luo Cheng received Shen Li's gaze and quickly put Jinghong into the piano bag. Just when Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, Luo Cheng pushed the piano directly into Shen Li's arms.

Shen Li: "..."

No!

I say you have no brains, and you really have no brains!

Luo Cheng ignored Shen Li's gnashing teeth and smiled, "I agree with my grandmother's idea. A good piano should be paired with a good owner, rather than being put away all day and covered in dust."

Old Madam Luo nodded in agreement. Shen Li made up her mind and stepped on Luo Yan's instep.

Luo Cheng felt pain, but tried hard not to make a sound. He raised his eyes slightly with dissatisfaction, as if he was ready to go out for a duel.

Looking at his flushed cheeks, Shen Li couldn't help laughing, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Shen Beiqi stood at one side, and suddenly felt that Shen Li was getting farther and farther away from him, even though he was only a few steps away from Shen Li.

Luo Jue came forward and said, "I never knew your little sister has such talent. I'm afraid after today, she will be as famous as Miss Linlang who is famous in Jiangdu!"

Comparing Shen Li with Lin Lang?

Shen Beiqi was inexplicably unhappy, and glanced at Luo Jue coldly, "Your Second Young Master is not much inferior, he can be compared with Young Master Yao Yue."

Master Yaoyue is a famous actor in Xing'anfang.

It was not uncommon for a man to sing songs, but the key point was that this Young Master Yao Yue had a tendency to have affairs with men, and he had openly expressed his love for Luo Jue many times.

Luo Jue also found it strange. In terms of appearance and family background, Shen Beiqi was much better than him.

Why doesn't Yao Yue go look for Shen Beiqi, but always pesters him instead?

Shen Beiqi did not tell Luo Jue that Yao Yue had looked for him once, but after he threw her into Jiangyang Lake, she never dared to appear in front of him again.

At this moment, thinking of the man with the orchid-like fingers and the pale face, Luo Jue suddenly felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"Why mention him on such a good day?"

"Can't you see that?" Xiao Wencong stood side by side with them without knowing when. "Master Shen is dissatisfied with you for comparing his adopted sister with Linlang from the Jiaofangsi."

Luo Jue was helpless and rolled his eyes at Shen Beiqi, feeling that his good mood was ruined by just one sentence!

Seeing that Shen Li couldn't refuse and took Jinghong for herself, Ren Jiaorui was so angry that she was about to burst into flames.

She ordered Ziyuan to destroy Shen Li's birthday gift, hoping to embarrass her at the birthday party, but she didn't expect that this gave her the opportunity to steal the limelight!

What's even worse is that Ren Jiaorui discovered that her cousin's eyes were always looking at Shen Li, which made her feel very dangerous.

They already had physical contact, and if they fell deeply in love, what should she do?

She pondered it over and decided to kill someone with a borrowed knife, and she would reap the benefits!

As for who this knife belongs to and how to use it, she will always find an opportunity!

The Luo family’s banquet was excellent. As it was early summer, they specially served hot and cold dishes alternately.

The cold dishes are beautifully presented, and the hot dishes are colorful, fragrant and delicious, which is a real feast for the taste buds.

After eating half full, Shen Li put down her bamboo chopsticks. Zi Yuan stood behind her, holding the Jinghong.

Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. At least until now, Shen Li cannot completely trust Zi Yuan.

This Jinghong sword was a gift from the emperor. Even though it was given to her, it still cannot be easily damaged.

She thought about it, and while the women were talking, she took Jinghong from Ziyuan and went to the yard with the zither in her arms.

Outside the flower hall is the Luo family garden. Beside the pond, stands a tall, light green figure.

She paused slightly, and Shen Beiqi heard the sound and turned his head to meet her gaze.

That day, the sky was full of sunset clouds. He stood at the bow of the boat and said that he wanted to find a wife.

In the past two days, she overheard the servants discussing in the mansion that Yang had looked for Shen Beiqi and had chosen Han Yunning, the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Han.

The prime minister's daughter and the duke are a perfect match, made in heaven.

When he came today, Yang shared a carriage with him, probably to discuss this matter.

Even though she knew there was no possibility for her and her brother, Shen Li still felt bitter when she saw him.

She leaned forward and whispered, "Brother."
