Section 80 and the musician
Before I reached the big music hall, I heard the piano and drums playing in unison, and the gold and stone concerto. Shu E stopped outside the door, and it was inconvenient to enter for a while. Just listen to this music solemn and magnificent.
Although Shu E has not heard the imperial concubine's "Manna Spectrum", she also knows that its lyrics originate from the twenty-fifth article of "Myoho-renge-kyo", "Guanyin Bodhisattva Pumen Pin". But I have seen it when I copied the scriptures. The Buddhist scriptures tell that Avalokiteshvara has a great wish to save all suffering. It is a prayer to the Bodhisattva. Presumably, the composition of the song is also melodious and meandering, touching and compassionate.
"This is not the Imperial Princess's "Manna Spectrum", I don't know what kind of song it is?" Shu E asked Gonggong Lin in a low voice.
"Have you ever heard of the Manna Spectrum?" Lin Gonggong asked.
"No, but judging by the momentum of the tune, it is by no means." Shu'e listened to this piece and seemed to be unable to finish playing for a while, and the music was so loud and loud that she couldn't hear clearly, so she paced to the side.
It is also a palace-style, with a river and several pavilions to the north. The small bridge flows, and the winding railings are very elegant.
Lin Gonggong brushed a big stone on the bank of the river with his tail and asked Shu'e to sit down. Shu E thanked him and said, "The tunes I learned when I was a child were all light and cheerful, and I have never heard such a majestic sound. This piece sounds very grand, but each beat is the same, the tune goes back and forth, and the craftsmanship is very heavy, and it is a little sluggish......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Gonggong Lin give him a look, and then stopped. Turning his head, he saw that in the pavilion in the middle of the river, a man with a flute in his hand was walking towards the river. The pavilion is very close to the riverbank, but the stone bridge out of the pavilion is built from north to south, and Shu'e is sitting on the west bank of the river, and he does not approach for a while.
Shu E didn't know who it was, but Lin Gonggong saw that this person was just dressed in ordinary clothes, and his clothes didn't look like the Great Music Department or the Propaganda Department, but like a musician in the workshop. Seeing that he was wearing a light blue collared robe with a sky blue silk tie around his waist, Shu E didn't dare to face it, and stood aside with his head bowed.
Before anyone arrived, the voice came first: "What else does the girl think of this song?" As soon as he finished speaking, he had already gotten off the bridge, but he didn't approach him, stood half a foot away, and bowed to Gonggong Lin. Gonggong Lin was also busy returning the salute and stretched out his hand: "This is Mrs. Cao Shiyujun of Yong'an Hall, and Mrs. Yong'an is also." ”
The man was slightly stunned, and bowed his hand to Shu E, and Shu E also returned the salute.
Gonggong Lin said with a smile: "Madame has just arrived in the palace this year, and she has never heard my song of longevity. ”
Shu E's heart tightened, it turned out that this was the song of Shangshou, and she thought that it was a rehearsal for the Christmas of the 14th Emperor next month, and she commented in vain, so as not to cause trouble.
I saw the man smile and said, "I am not from the Great Music Department, I only receive idle jobs in the teaching workshop [Note 1], and the two places have rarely interacted, so my father-in-law does not need to worry about it." Seeing that Father-in-law Lin agreed, he said: "I heard Mrs. Yong'an talk about beats, and she is very clever. I'm here to ask. After saying that, he bowed his hand again.
Gonggong Lin and Shu E saw that this person had strange words and deeds, but his tone was sincere, and there must be no malicious intent, but Shu E had finally seen the things in this palace that caused evil words and disasters if he was not careful. So he only smiled and said, "I have been distracted since I was a child, and I don't understand the rhythm at all." Because he was looking for someone and was upset, he spoke casually, don't laugh. ”
The man's expression was a little disappointed, but he was still quite polite: "Who is Madame looking for?" It might help in the future. ”
Gonggong Lin shook his head, "What Madame is looking for is someone from the Great Music Department." ”
"Oh? I don't know what it's called? The man asked.
