Guzhengvignette|GuzhengLe guzheng () est un instrument de musique à cordes pincées traditionnel chinois de la famille des cithares sur table, dont les plus anciennes traces datent du avant notre ère. Gǔ signifie ancien et zhēng veut dire cithare. Selon une légende, il y avait un roi qui avait deux filles très douées qui adoraient jouer de cet instrument. Il est arrivé un temps où le roi devient trop vieux et il a envie de passer cet instrument à l'une d’elles. Cependant, ses deux filles voulaient l’avoir.
