Story:
During the reign of Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Ya and Grand Marshal Li took musicians on an excursion to the countryside, staying at Pingshui Villa.
One clear, moonlit evening, they brought a pipa to the pond and began to play the 'Ruibin Tune.'
Suddenly, something dropped onto the bank, emitting a melodious clang. They hurried to investigate and discovered it was a piece of 'Ruibin iron.' When struck with a finger, its sound perfectly harmonized with the instruments, producing a pure and resonant tone.
