Xue Zhao was stunned when she heard this, she really wanted to seize this opportunity to prove herself, prove the piano skills passed on to her by her father, and even let the musicians in the world get the respect and status they should have. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But for her sake, he will be in danger again.
Seeing her sad expression, Lin Xiuyuan comforted her and said, "Zhao'er, don't worry, I'm just guessing, maybe General Qing won't come to me." You prepare well for the musician election, and I will always be with you. ”
Xue Zhao slowly leaned into Lin Xiuyuan's arms, only to feel that the warmth he gave was about to melt away.
The emperor and queen of the dynasty attached great importance to ritual music, and the Taichang Temple and the Inner Teaching Workshop in the court were large-scale, and there was already a strict division of ranks and responsibilities.
The selection of musicians included male musicians in charge of Yale and female musicians in charge of Yanle, and the announcement of the general election was posted on the streets, and the musicians inside and outside the capital were very excited and eager to try.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the election, Xue Zhao took her Yuxi and Huo Qing to run for the election, and Lin Xiuyuan was by Xue Zhao's side.
The entrance to the palace was already crowded, and the musicians who came to participate in the election lined up through the side door to enter the palace.
When Xue Zhao and Huo Qing entered the palace gate, Lin Xiuyuan stopped, held Xue Zhao's hand and said, "Zhao'er, I can't accompany you in, I'm waiting for you here, you can both return triumphantly." ”
Xue Zhao was crowded into the palace by the people behind her, she stood on tiptoe and glanced back at Lin Xiuyuan, her eyes flashing with a sparkling look.
The musicians entered the palace and arrived at the top of the main hall, and the first thing to start selecting was the Yale Club.
There are many kinds of musical instruments in the club, and the flute is one of them.
First, dozens of musicians stepped forward to play the bell, the sting, the drum, the sheng and other musical instruments, the main candidate of Taichang Temple only selected one person who played the sheng, and the rest were all eliminated.
It was Huo Qing's turn, I saw him walking steadily, slowly walking to the middle of the hall, picking up the flute in his hand and starting to play, and suddenly his low and distant flute sound echoed in the hall.
Huo Qing not only played the flute well, but also had a superior appearance, with a long body and a jade body, handsome and sparse eyebrows, and the people in the hall were stunned for a while.
After the song was blown, the main candidate immediately made a decision, and Huo Qing was elected to the Taile Bureau, directly becoming Lezheng, and under the jurisdiction of Taichang Temple.
There are less than ten people selected by the Yale Club, all of whom are talented senior musicians, some of whom were selected into the Taile Bureau, and some of whom were selected into the Drumming Bureau, but except for Huo Qing, who was directly selected as Le Zheng, everyone else was a deputy Le Zheng.
After the selection of the Yale Club, it is the turn of the Yan Music Club to select.
This time, only female musicians were selected by the Yan Music Club, which was specially used for the harem banquet.
The female musicians walked to the middle of the hall in turn, showing their talents, there are the sound of the pipa, there are also the soft and clear sound of the gonghou, and the sound of the high-pitched and loud gonghou, and the musicians who play are also beautiful and beautiful women with good faces and beautiful postures.
The main candidate of Taichang Temple seems to be very satisfied with the selection of the Yan Music Department, and he selected more than a dozen people to enter the inner teaching workshop in one breath.
When it was Xuezhao's turn, the main candidate was already angry, and Huo Qing, who was on the side, couldn't help but sweat for Xuezhao.
Xue Zhao hugged her Yuxi, walked to the middle of the hall, placed Yuxi on the piano table, she took a soft breath, stabilized her mind, and began to play.
The musicians around the hall all looked at Xue Zhao, and saw that she had a fair complexion, a delicate face, delicate and elegant facial features, and a waist-length green silk that made people want to come forward and touch it.
She has a beautiful figure, a slender figure, and sits gracefully and generously at the piano table and strokes the piano, just like the ladies who come out of the picture of the ladies as dignified and beautiful.
The main candidate stopped yawning halfway, and looked slightly stunned.
The song prepared by Xue Zhao this time is "Deer Song", from "The Book of Songs, Xiao Ya", which is the first part of "Xiao Ya", which was a music song for the pre-Qin court and was originally used by the guests of the Zhou Dynasty banquet.
Yo yo deer chirping, eating wild Qin. I have guests, drums and pianos.
The people in the Yan Music Club are in charge of folk music, and they are in charge of the music played at the palace banquet, and after listening to this "Deer Song", they can't help but nod their heads in approval.
After the song was played, everyone in the hall was silent, and the main candidate stood up with some excitement, walked to Xue Zhao's piano table and said, "Such a woman with extraordinary piano skills will definitely be favored by the saint and the queen in the future, and will be chosen as the qin to be edicted!" ”
Xue Zhao stood up from the piano table, Shi Shiran saluted, and said, "Thank you for the compliment." ”
Seeing that Xue Zhao had the demeanor of everyone's ladies, the main candidate took a look at the roster, and asked with some curiosity, "Dare to ask Miss Yu Xue Zhao from Nangong Mansion?" ”
Xue Zhao replied, "It's the courtier." ”
When the Chosen One heard this, he immediately bowed down and said, "Disrespectful, disrespectful!" In the early years of the next heard that Mr. Tai Qingyuan played a song "Pingsha Falling Geese", moved, and then heard that he died young, every time he sighed, today I heard Mr. 's daughter play this song "Deer Song", it is really extraordinary, blue out of the blue and better than the blue! ”
Xue Zhao was even more flattered when she heard this, and immediately said, "The adults praised it falsely, and Xue Zhao didn't dare to take it seriously." ”
The main elector nodded, slowly walked back to the seat in the middle of the main hall, and said to the subordinates next to him, "Miss Yu Xuezhao, selected into the first part of the workshop." ”
Everyone listened to it and secretly admired in their hearts, the first part of this workshop is composed of the best talented musicians in the workshop, every important banquet celebration in the palace, all of which are played by the musicians of the first part of the workshop, and there is a great chance to see the emperor and the queen.
Feeling the envious and jealous gazes of the people around her, Xue Zhao was a little unnatural, it was her dream to become a first-class court musician, but she didn't want to become the target of public criticism because of this.
Xue Zhao bowed and thanked her again, bowed her head and quietly returned to her seat, and everyone saw that although she won the first place, she was still quiet and introverted, unassuming and proud, and her hostility towards her became a little less.
This time, the musicians chose a whole day, and when Xue Zhao, Huo Qing and other musicians went out of the palace gate together, it was already evening.
Lin Xiuyuan and Xiao Chen were waiting for them outside the palace gate, Wan Yan's carriage was also not far away, Wan Yan was inconvenient to show up, so she kept lifting the curtain in the carriage and looked out, with a little anxious look on her face.
Seeing that the musicians were all lining up and coming out, the crowd waiting outside began to make noise, Xue Zhao saw Lin Xiuyuan's tall figure from a distance, and excitedly trotted towards him with his Yuxi in his arms.
Lin Xiuyuan also saw Xuezhao, and saw her running towards him like a little swallow, her eyes were dyed with tenderness, her eyes were full of love, and a touching smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
