Chapter 331: Famous Songs
Li Bai listened to Yang Yun's words, and his expression relaxed slightly.
He continued to say in a peaceful tone: "What Brother Yang said is not unreasonable, the eldest lady's dancing skills are naturally excellent, but there may be omissions in the rhythm......
This sounds fine, but it has hit Aunt Gongsun's self-confidence somewhat.
"Since Yang Daochang thinks that the slave family's pipa music is not satisfactory, is there a better tune? If there is no comparison, how can there be such an evaluation? It must be that Yang Daochang has heard better pipa music on the side......"
Gongsun Auntie's eyes were slight, and her tone became aggressive.
This is also the habit of Fengyue women, in this kind of occasion to usher in, you must not fall behind, and give the initiative to others, otherwise you will not accompany the good fruit of the wine woman to eat.
At the same time, Aunt Gongsun's question goes straight to the core of the problem.
Of course, Yang Yun has heard better pipa music, not one or two, but that is all a matter of later generations, in this era, no matter how good the pipa music is, it is also a beautiful sound, and there is no system, so he can't be much interested.
Li Bai thought that Yang Yun was stumped, raised his wine glass and said, "Let's not talk about this first, why don't you drink?" ”
Yang Yuhuan saw that Yang Yun was targeted by Aunt Gongsun, and stimulated the competitive spirit in his heart, and took the initiative to say: "I have heard better." ”
"Oh? Isn't this Yang Gongzi very good at pipa? ”
Aunt Gongsun's words almost revealed the identity of Yang Yuhuan's daughter's family.
Otherwise, where would a man play the lute?
Yang Yuhuan was very unconvinced, he secretly lost the dance with Aunt Gongsun just now, and he felt frustrated in his heart, and he didn't want to admit defeat in playing the pipa.
But she couldn't say that she was ugly.
Yang Yun stepped forward: "Auntie, my understanding of music is very superficial, I wonder if you can do it for you and convert the tune into music?" ”
"Oh?"
Aunt Gongsun was very curious, what Yang Yun said couldn't make it difficult for her at all.
But she still didn't understand, why Yang Yun would say so conclusively, as if he was holding the victory?
Li Bai was very happy: "It seems that Brother Yang is really good at this, even I want to see it." ”
"Okay, please take out the pipa and play it......"
Yang Yun finally wanted to show his understanding of music and rhythm, which was not something he was good at, but because of the scene, he had to "show ugliness".
……
……
Through the ages, it is impossible to determine which is the best lute song.
But Yang Yun's understanding of pipa music lies in the famous "Ambush on All Sides", which is magnificent and brilliant in content and majestic and peculiar in style, which is extremely rare in classical music. The song makes excellent use of musical means to show the fierce scenes of ancient wars, and is a vivid and touching picture of the ancient battlefield.
Its sound is magnificent and solemn, showing the timbre of the pipa to the fullest.
Aunt Gongsun is an expert in playing the pipa, and as long as Yang Yun can sing the tone, he can fall on the pipa with fingering.
At first it was just a staccato syllable, followed by a coherent strumming.
and so on to completely connect the tunes in front of "Ambush on All Sides" and play it by Aunt Gongsun, even if this piece is not very proficient for Aunt Gongsun, the music played still makes the whole room feel goosebumps when they listen to it.
"Daoist Yang, I don't know what's next?"
After playing the first half of the song twice, Aunt Gongsun put away her contempt and asked in a begging tone.
Yang Yun smiled and shook his head: "Today is not enough to drink, just remember these, and the rest will be said after you turn around and sober up!" ”
Outsiders heard that Yang Yun was deliberately hanging the appetite of Aunt Gongsun.
Aunt Gongsun was very discouraged, and it was not easy to learn such a delicate pipa music, and she could only learn a few verses at a time, which was very unsatisfying, which was a great torture for a person like her, who had pursued climbing the peak of art all her life.
"Brother Yang, seeing that the eldest lady is so sincere, why don't you think about it carefully?"
Li Bai immediately spoke for Aunt Gongsun.
Yang Yun sighed: "It's really not that I deliberately cover it up, but I have really forgotten some places, wait for me to study it, and then discuss it with my aunt, now I am dizzy and can't remember it at all, you can't blame me!" ”
Aunt Gongsun asked: "Such a natural sound, could it be that Yang Daochang did it in the past?" ”
"How can you be so accomplished?"
Yang Yun smiled and waved his hand.
Aunt Gongsun looked at Yang Yun, still a little unwilling, but looking at this posture, I am afraid it is not easy for Yang Yun to take out the second half of the pipa song.
Such a good song, just saying a part of it to her in a staggered way, is a rare courtesy.
How can there be a reason in this world that you can get benefits without paying a price?
"Then we'll keep drinking."
Li Bai didn't care too much, after drinking a few glasses of high wine, he was full of spirits, laughing and scolding, famous sentences were frequent, and he almost got up to perform swordsmanship in person.
However, Aunt Gongsun was always present, he didn't want to be too prodigal, and with a powerful person like Yang Yun, he still restrained himself in doing things.
Yang Yun saw that the time was about the same, it was time to send Yang Yuhuan back, after all, Yang Yuhuan came out for some time, and it was not good to encounter the situation that Li Longji was looking for again.
Once in a while, it can be explained, and every time it is like this, it will definitely arouse Li Longji's suspicion.
"A few people, it's not early, we should go, we can't let Brother Taibai treat me today, there is a little heart here, I hope the aunt will not dislike it."
After Yang Yun finished speaking, he directly took out a gold ingot and threw it on the table, without weighing it, it was enough to be more than ten times the current wine price.
Li Bai kept him repeatedly, but Yang Yun was still in a hurry to take Yang Yuhuan back, and then the sister and brother went out, arrived outside Chunfeng Lane, and returned home by carriage.
……
……
"Shiro, you are too angry with your sister, I have long seen that Gongsun Aunt is not pleasing to the eye, and she looks old-fashioned...... Isn't it just that you can dance? ”
Yang Yuhuan's tone was not good, it seemed that Aunt Gongsun had offended her, this kind of war between women was inexplicable many times, and she could be offended if she was cold.
To put it bluntly, excellent women never admit that they are inferior, just like men can't admit themselves at the wine table.
"My sister has won the award, so I'll just talk about it casually."
Yang Yun is humble and authentic.
Yang Yuhuan asked curiously, "Brother, where did you learn the pipa music?" Why haven't you told my sister before? If you know that you have such a good pipa music, my sister can just learn it from you, why tell Aunt Gongsun? ”
Yang Yuhuan was still very proud before, and felt that his younger brother fought for himself and frustrated the self-confidence of Aunt Gongsun, and he was very relieved.
But if you think about it again, I feel unwilling, obviously I am also very good at playing the pipa, why do you want to go far and tell outsiders about the pipa music?
Yang Yun smiled: "I just thought that my sister might want to study, so I didn't tell her the rest of the content...... Leaking good things without asking my sister's opinion, what if my sister is unhappy? ”
When Yang Yuhuan heard this, even if he felt that there was a bit of falsehood, he began to flutter.
"Shiro, you...... You're so good, my sister loves you to death. ”
Yang Yuhuan is called a happy.
It turned out that it wasn't that my brother didn't remember, but that he didn't want to leak the good things and left them for her.
This is enough to show that Yang Yun cares about her sister very much.
Yang Yun sighed: "But my sister is now concentrating on seeking the Tao, I'm afraid that I don't have time to practice pipa music, and there is no pipa for my sister to play in the palace." ”
Yang Yuhuan thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, I will always think of a way, if it doesn't work, you can buy one for me and send it to the palace at a time, anyway, I also need something to relax when I'm bored, playing the pipa is very good, and it can cultivate sentiment." Will you teach me when you go back? ”
"Okay!"
Yang Yun agreed without hesitation.
This is not a difficult thing, as long as Yang Yuhuan can master the rhythm himself, even if he plays the pipa in the Xuannu Temple, will the emperor ask who sent it to Yang Yuhuan?
……
……
Because he taught Yang Yuhuan to play the pipa, it was not until nightfall that Yang Yun sent his sister back to Xuannuguan.
This time Yang Yuhuan went back, he did not experience any storms, and the emperor did not pay attention to this side all the time.
As night fell, Yang Yun and Yarou returned home, and Yang Yuhuan picked up the pipa in the Xuannu Temple, as if she had obtained a treasure, and began to practice the pipa song "Ambush on All Sides" taught to her by Yang Yun.
As soon as the tune came out, all the female officials in the Xuannu Temple were listening attentively.
Even artists like Gongsun Auntie, who are accustomed to listening to all kinds of famous songs, praise this pipa song as "the sound of nature", not to mention the palace maid who has not been exposed to too many new things in the palace for a long time?
Soon, the news reached Li Longji's ears, and it was Gao Lishi who got the female official to pass it on, and then told Li Longji.
After the last time Yang Yuhuan disappeared for no reason, Gao Lishi stepped up his surveillance of the Xuannu Temple, and specially sent a female official who specialized in spying on intelligence to be the Taoist aunt, but Yang Yuhuan didn't like others to get too close, and this Taoist aunt rarely entered the middle hall, so she couldn't spy on the news of Yang Yuhuan's exit from the palace.
But playing the pipa can't be hidden.
At this time, Li Longji was watching a vaudeville performance on the inner curtain, and Concubine Wu Hui was sitting next to him.
"Is there such a thing? The sound of the pipa coming from the Xuannu Temple? Li Longji heard that there was a special pipa song coming out of the Xuannu Temple, and he couldn't help but look up at Gao Lishi.
Concubine Wu Hui saw that the emperor's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, but what happened?" ”
Li Longji didn't care about Concubine Wu Hui, he didn't even have a word of explanation, got up and walked out with Gao Lishi.
"Your Majesty......"
Concubine Wu Hui wanted to continue asking, but found that her husband completely ignored her existence and walked away without even stopping.
Concubine Wu Hui was very angry, but there was nothing she could do.
……
……
Li Longji walked out from the inner curtain, and listened to Gao Lishi's narration on the way.
“…… It's only there tonight, not before, as far as the old minister knows, this Xuannu has never sent a pipa to the temple, I don't know if it's the Xuannu Niangniang who plays it, or someone else. ”
Gao Lishi followed behind Li Longji and said respectfully.
Li Longji looked anxious and said, "It must be the Xuannu who has warned me...... I want to hear what this lute is all about. ”
The master and servant took a large number of guards and retinues to the outside of the Xuannu Temple.
At this time, Yang Yuhuan had stopped playing, as if he was resting.
When Li Longji approached, he didn't hear the sound of the pipa and was very disappointed.
It is very unpleasant to leave the warm palace at night and run here to blow the cold wind.
"Lux, what's going on?"
Li Longji was slightly dissatisfied.
As he spoke, the tune protruded, and it was played from the beginning.
"Wow......"
Suddenly, a bit of a solemn atmosphere was added to the air, and Li Longji's expression was first shocked, and then he was intoxicated by this famous song through the ages.
