Chapter 4: Racing Skills (2)

In fact, from the time the VIP boarded the ship to the present, Yi Jiangnan greeted the guests either as a maid or as a maid, except for the young bustard Zhao Qiong, who had not seen a protagonist until this moment. Therefore, everyone's curiosity has been aroused more and more, what kind of wonderful people are hidden in this memory of Jiangnan, and they are so tightly covered?

Zhao Qiong heard the words of the Xiaoyao prince, smiled slightly, clapped her hands, and the door of a room in the corner of the hall opened, and then two girls walked out.

But seeing that these two girls were just about the same age, they looked exactly the same, medium height, and the same autumn eyes, and gently glanced at the audience, and suddenly everyone felt that the two girls were paying attention to themselves. Their figures are not fat or thin, just right, just in response to the sentence "If you increase a point, you will be fat, and if you lose a point, you will be thin", with pink cheeks and dimples, combing their buns, and wearing a pink waist narrow skirt, showing a delicate figure, with a fresh and lovely temperament, and they look extraordinarily cute and cute. Seeing this, everyone secretly praised it in their hearts, just this temperament and appearance are superior.

The two girls walked to the middle, smiled sweetly, and Zhao Qiong introduced, these two girls are the two of us who remember the qin and song in Jiangnan, the two of them are still twin sisters, they have always been in and out together, both surnamed Lin, the big one is called Ziyan, and the small one is called Langcui. Speaking of which, everyone gave birth to a beautiful thought, twin sisters, with the same mind, that. Isn't it...... Hey, hey, wonderful, wonderful!

I saw that these two girls were each holding a musical instrument in their hands, one of them was holding a pipa, and the other was holding something that no one could recognize, similar to a pipa, but the stomach of this instrument was hollow, and there were actually six strings, everyone looked at Zhao Qiong with puzzled eyes. Zhao Qiong still smiled slightly and did not explain.

The two girls spoke at the same time at this time, "The music that Lang Cui (Purple Smoke) played for the adults was written and composed by himself, called "Pipa Yin?" Leave the Dead", please correct", and then corrected the chords and played at the same time.

"A song of mourning, swallowing speechless; The cold stars are bright and out, and the green lights break the lonely heart (the west building on the moon);

At the beginning of the peach blossoms, he played the pipa in his sleeves; faintly lingering with residual incense, poignant and mournful;

But he paid a thousand hearts to the heart, who knew that the red face was in tears; The lonely shadow is difficult to dance by itself, but the sound of the clear spring is left;

Plain hand silk silk, hosta hidden flower; The cold rain is relative, and the candles and tears fall in thousands of lines (smoke locks the heavy building);

When playing, the sound of the instrument is low like a cry, like a lingering drizzle, sonorous like a song when intense, and like a galloping horse, accompanied by a glissando, sometimes in an ensemble, sometimes in a separate solo. The voices of the two also have their own characteristics, one person's voice is like the first cry of a yellow bird, and the other person's voice is like a hollow valley orchid, like a heavenly sound, harmonious and abnormal when singing, and each has its own characteristics when singing solo.

At the end of the song, the audience was silent, and even the sound of breathing could be heard.

And the people on the boat outside were also quiet, unable to speak for a long time, they were simply dumbfounded and speechless.

After a long while, the prince took the lead in high-five, "Okay, good, great~~" "It's like hearing the temporary ringing of fairy music" "This song should only be in the sky, how many times can I hear it in the world."

"Dare to ask the two girls, in addition to the pipa, what kind of musical instrument is the other, this king has never seen it."

The two girls glanced at each other, and Lang Cui stood up, "Lord Qiqi, this instrument was transmitted from overseas, and it was passed to our dynasty, and I heard from Persian merchants that this instrument is called a guitar, and it is a Western musical instrument. ”

Who did the lyrics? It's just a pearl of words, and the momentum is extraordinary, can you invite the lyricist to come here to see it? The prince became curious about the lyricist again, such a wonderful word, and the person who wanted to compose the lyricist was not an ordinary person.

"Hello to the prince, the lyricist is a master, not here, where the person is at the moment, we don't know" Ziyan replied very politely.

The Prince of Xiaoyao was very sorry for a while, and then turned his head to look at Zhao Luan, "Mr. Zhao, can you comment on their piano and singing skills?" ”

Zhao Pan hurriedly stood up and made a gesture, "In front of all the adults, students don't dare to speak up."

The prince waved his hand, "It's okay, today you and I are both judges, don't talk about anything else, only comment on Fengyue, sir, but it's okay to talk about it." ”

"That night was presumptuous." "The pipa guitar ensemble of the two girls, Lang Cui and Ziyan, is a must, their piano skills are both rich and soft, bright and light, and the mutual foil makes this piece dynamic, unlike the music we are used to hearing, this one has the upper hand in the word fresh." Zhao Luan sincerely expressed his opinion.

Lord Xiaoyao nodded, and then turned to Lord Li of Hangzhou Zhizhou, "Lord Li has something to add?" ”

Xia Guan thought that the singing voices of the two girls were also first-class, and their voices had their own characteristics and were extremely beautiful. And the most commendable thing is that their chorus complements each other and sets off each other. As you all know, compared with monophony and chorus, it is more difficult to harmonize, because if two people whose timbre is not close to each other are in harmony, it is easy to cause their respective voices to be incompatible and abrupt, and if the voices are too close, they are ordinary and featureless. The singing voices of the two girls complement each other well when they sing in chorus, and they show their magic when they sing solo. Li Zhizhou told eloquently.

The words of a song are also very important, this "Pipa Yin" and the previous White Girl's "Spring River Flower Moon Night" have their own characteristics, and they can be said to be equal in artistic conception, and the word "Pipa Yin" has tenderness and pride, there are feelings of everyone who exchanges a small family for a country, and there is also a sentiment of sacrificing small love for big love, which is really commendable. The style and artistic conception of "Spring River Flower Moonlit Night" are very different, and it is difficult to distinguish between the superior and the inferior in terms of words alone." On the side, the two transport envoys from Jiangsu and Zhejiang also added by the way.

"Yes, all the gentlemen's analyses are extremely incisive, and this king, as the main judge, must always give some harsher opinions."

After a little thought, the prince said, "The little "Spring River Flower Moon Night" and the "Pipa Yin" of the cage cui purple smoke can be said to be equal in the artistic conception of the word, the little piano skills are good, and the strokes are good, but there is nothing wrong with them, and the pipa guitar ensemble of the cage cui purple smoke is better than the novelty, and the ensemble complements each other, and it is good; The small singing voice singing "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night" is slightly insufficient, this singing needs to be clear and empty, beautiful and natural, and the small voice is more than soft and charming, ethereal and insufficient, but the singing voice of the green purple smoke can complement each other in the insufficient place because of its own characteristics, so in terms of singing voice, Xiaoxiao is slightly inferior. "The prince of Xiaoyao hit the nail on the head.

In this dynasty, the literati are more proficient in poetry and songs, and many people also have deep attainments in music, because of the emphasis on literature and light on martial arts, and most of the officials are civil officials, all of whom are selected by literati to participate in the imperial examination, even if they are state and provincial officials, most of them are the best among the literati, so the judgment of the qin art and singing art is more than enough.

In the first piano song competition, Sijifang was slightly inferior to Yi Jiangnan.

At this time, the audience in the middle of the lake was also too addicted. A scribe shook his head and said, "This song, this song, is really lingering, and it has been in my ears for three days. ”

There were not a few people who nodded in agreement, "I really didn't expect that Yi Jiangnan really hides the dragon and crouching tiger, it's not simple, I really want to see the faces of those girls." ”

In fact, the purpose of the audience's real coming has been achieved, because the next two competitions, one is painting, the other is dance, they are all inaudible, dance art can still hear music, and can barely listen to it, but painting art can't be seen, touched or heard, but the audience in the lake is still reluctant to leave the cold lake, these people can barely be regarded as literati, right?

And the boss of the Four Seasons Fang has nothing to say at this time, even if he, a person who knows a little about music, can tell that the girl from his own house is indeed a little inferior, and it is no wonder that the adults are judging.

Then the next game becomes crucial, if the next game can be won, there is hope to get back a game, but look at this situation, the chance of victory is very small, but it is good to win, but it is the other two girls, today everyone wears a pair of pants, out of the Lu is actually still a competitor, so I hope to win and hope to lose, the contradiction in my heart, for a while I was there to think about it.

After a short break, the second art competition began.

Representing the Four Seasons Fang to participate in the painting competition was Zhu Baobao of Xichun Building. Zhu Baobao is a woman with a graceful body, when she comes out, she is like a weak wind supporting a willow, curling Tingting, two curved eyebrows, a pair of affectionate eyes, she is really a delicate beauty, which makes people feel pity involuntarily.

Because a pair of sisters appeared in Yijiangnan to participate in the piano art before, no matter the appearance, piano skills, and singing skills are all first-class, so everyone here at this time stared at the door, curious who Yijiangnan could let come out to compete in order to amaze everyone.

At this time, the door in the corner of the hall opened again, and a woman dressed in white came out, her long hair was pulled back at will, her eyebrows were lightly swept away, her eyebrows were picturesque, her skirt was fluttering, and she walked from inside the door as if she was coming from a painting, and slowly walked in front of everyone.

Everyone was amazed for a while before coming back to their senses, and the prince immediately ordered, "You two each take out the skills you have learned, show your painting skills, remember that there is only one stick of incense, don't delay." ”

The two of them were at the drawing table where the paper and inkstone had been laid out, and they each began to put down their pens after a little contemplation.

Just after the half-pillar incense, the two painters basically completed the painting, and only needed to inscribe two lines of poetry on the side.

And the people in the hall are not idle, everyone chats with each other, eats snacks, drinks tea, and is not bored, and the refreshments have changed to many varieties, many of which are not eaten by everyone, each of them is eating while reminiscing, and they are asking where the master who makes dim sum comes from, whether they can borrow each other, etc., and they are also very happy.

The people listening to the race in the middle of the lake were also chatting enthusiastically at this time, and it seemed that the cold night could not extinguish their enthusiasm for chasing beautiful women.

When a pillar of incense was about to arrive, the two daughters completed the painting one after another. The maids cautiously took it to the table of the main judge, the free prince, and waited for the judge.
