Chapter 67: The Six Arts of a Gentleman, a Chapter of Music

At the end of the dinner, Li Shimin was a little drunk, and on the banquet, the military generals drank and ate happily.

I was going to arrange to stay in Kunning Palace, but I didn't want to have a waiter's report, and the banquet in Kunning Palace had not stopped.

"What? What kind of banquets are there in Kunning Palace? ”

After listening to the narration of the chamberlain, Li Shimin scolded with a smile, "Nonsense!" ”

The chamberlain thought that Li Shimin was angry, lowered his head and didn't know how to dissuade him, and heard Li Shimin say the second sentence.

"It's disgusting that it's not called me for such a second! Come on, set up Kunning Palace, I'm going to see what they're playing! ”

Do you really think you're done with a meal?

Hehe, I underestimated Fang Chen! He was going to indulge once, how could it be so easy to end.

When he arrived outside Kunning Palace, he could hear laughter inside, and Li Shimin pushed the door in without thinking about it.

Ooh! Li Chengqian and Li Tai brothers sat opposite Fang Chen, with a chessboard in front of them, but the style of the chess pieces was quite fresh, with small seals, soldiers, horses, and crossbows engraved on them...... (The cannon did not appear at all in this era, so Fang Chen could only change his name)

On the other side, the eldest grandson Wujian accompanied Lizhi and Yu Zhang to play together, and he didn't know where Fang Chen made that kind of rocking wooden horse for them, even if an adult sat on it, he wouldn't feel too small.

"Okay, you're happy, why didn't anyone come looking for me?"

Li Shimin took off his coat, and there was a carbon stove in the hall, which was also warm.

Only then did everyone find out that Li Shimin was here.

"Concubines, see Your Majesty!" "Son-in-law, see father!" "Fang Chen has seen Your Majesty!"

The most, the most, and finally, there is also a cute sound "Yu Zhang, see ~Father~"

Li Shimin swept away his previous serious expression, laughed, stepped forward to pick up Yu Zhang, and sat on the wooden horse with his buttocks, shaking his head back and forth very curiously.

"Interesting, who did this?"

Yu Zhang was very happy, "Son... Nursery rhyme! ”

The eldest grandson Wujian gave him a look secretly, "Go and help Cheng Qian, Yu'er has come up with another kind of chess, Qingque and Cheng Qian combined, they can't play him." ”

"Oh? Then I'll have to take a good look. Li Shimin understood and nodded slightly.

Walking over, Li Shimin found that this chessboard was quite extraordinary, "Chu River, Han Realm!" ”

On the chessboard, the generals and commanders are opposed, and each side has its own soldiers and horses, which seems to be ......

"Chess for military exercises?"

Fang Chen's heart was full of shock, how could playing chess become a chess exercise in a military exercise? When I was looking for someone to play chess before, it wasn't so complicated, it was completely boring and idle!

"Father, let me tell you, this chess should be played like this......"

Li Tai directly talked to Li Shimin about the rules, which made Li Shimin's heart itch and he was anxious to get started.

"General!"

Fang Chen stretched his waist, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I won again, I am willing to lose the bet!" ”

Li Chengqian looked aggrieved, lay directly on the ground, and did ten push-ups in a row, which should be the sixth group.

After doing it, he lay directly on the ground, "Don't play, second brother, your punishment is too harsh, right?" I can't even exert any strength in this arm right now. ”

Fang Chen laughed and said: "Push-ups, the strength of the arms and abdomen is practiced, if you come to such a hundred every day, it will ensure that you will be of infinite use." ”

When developing mutton, the wine was let go, and it smelled of wine and tasted delicious, but the consequences were ......

If you look at Fang Chen's red face, you can know that he is still small and can't bear alcohol.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai are not much better, but this makes them more real.

Li Tai is a dog-headed military advisor, let him give Li Chengqian an idea, let him play in person, and say nothing, but feel that the eldest brother is punished is very happy.

What about Li Chengqian? In addition to being bold, there is a kind of simplicity, yes, it is simple, Fang Chen feels that he is very lonely. He is willing to give for his brother and can also take on the responsibility of being a big brother.

As for Fang Chen? The eldest grandson Wujian only has three words to describe it, "After drinking, he is a child." ”

Remember this description, a child, not a child.

"Yu'er, I'll accompany you in the next game!" kicked Li Chengqian in disgust, and Li Shimin sat directly in Li Chengqian's previous position.

Fang Chen was also really floating because of alcohol, "Your Majesty, you also have to accept punishment if you lose, twenty push-ups, how about it?" ”

"Is that the one Cheng Qian just made? Okay, twenty is twenty! ”

After half an hour, Li Shimin kept rubbing his shoulders on both sides, and a lot of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Stinky boy, can't you let me win?"

As soon as Fang Chen's eyes closed, a slight snoring sound immediately came out.

"Father, the second brother is asleep."

Li Chengqian was happy when he saw it, but at the same time he was a little distressed, he, Li Tai, and even Li Shimin were actually accompanying Fang Chen to vent.

Otherwise, which emperor and crown prince will be punished?

For the emperor, it will never be wrong!

The eldest grandson Wujian walked over slowly and picked up Fang Chen easily, "He's tired today, you guys are free." ”

Li Shimin asked Xuanba, who was waiting on the side, to pour him a cup of tea, "This kid, why is he so bitter in his heart?" ”

From the very beginning, Fang Chen played chess, and Li Shimin found a problem, why did Li Tai rush up to explain the game of chess to him, because he also had to tell Li Shimin in a low voice that just now, when playing the first game, Fang Chen was crying and laughing, which made people really overwhelmed.

The eldest grandson Wujian was frightened, but he couldn't bear Fang Chen, who was drunk, so he could only let Li Chengqian be his companion and accompany him to vent.

Fang Chen was indeed a little sad at that time, his chess was taught by his mother, Princess Pingyang, and it was inevitable that he would be a little out of shape when he saw things and thought about people.

Fang Chen, who was sleeping, was not honest either, and kept muttering to himself.

"I really want to have a home, a mother like the queen's mother, and a father like Your Majesty!"

"Mom, why, why am I an abandoned baby?"

“......”

The eldest grandson Wujian put him on the couch in the side hall, leaned on the side of the bed, and held Fang Chen's right hand tightly with his right hand.

"Wu'er, in the future, everything you want will come true!"

As if he had been rewarded in a dream, Fang Chen smiled lightly and his breathing stabilized.

No one knows that this night's Kunning Palace has had joy and sadness.

The next day was a rest day, and everyone slept a lot.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai did not leave, and also lived in a side hall of Kunning Palace, Li Shimin searched for a long time, and found that the eldest grandson did not return to the room, and came to the side hall where Fang Chen was, where both mother and son were located.

Looking at Fang Chen, who was sleeping on the couch, and the eldest grandson queen who was guarding on the side, Li Shimin couldn't stop crying.

Many years ago, at the moment when Pingyang rushed into the Qi Palace, how much he hoped that he could take back his children and then reunite the family and never be separated!

"Your Majesty?"

The eldest grandson Wujian turned his head and saw Li Shimin, so he hurriedly got up.

"Guanyin, I'm really happy today!"

"Your Majesty, the concubine is also today, maybe this will be an extremely important moment in the concubine's life."

Recalling the scene at the banquet, the eldest grandson couldn't help but smile, although Fang Chen was humble, he was also an extremely arrogant person, and it was rare to be so excited.

Brothers, friends, brothers, and brothers, everyone left behind the halo they deserved, and everyone was very happy for this meal.

Li Chengqian once again strengthened his idea and protected his second brother!

Lizhen and Yu Zhang agreed with this stranger who suddenly appeared in their hearts, and they were even a little closer than their own brother.

Li Tai, the king of Wei, this unsentimental person in history, felt for the first time that it was good to have such a brother!

When the tiles bathed in the first rays of the morning sun shone faintly, the whole palace was busy again.

Fang Chen's eyes were big and the other was small, and he slept a little dazed.

"What did I do last night?"

I didn't want to be okay, but when I thought about it, I felt a chill down my spine, and said secretly: "I'm obviously too high!" ”

Who said that ancient liquor was low? Why don't you try it? It's easy to get drunk when you put too much cooking, what is this called!

Although it was not purified, the ancients could accumulate the concentration and aroma of the wine through storage.

In fact, the most important thing is that it is normal for an eight-year-old baby to drink half a tael of wine.

It seems that Li Chengqian and Li Tai are also the kind of beings who don't drink less, so they are naturally better than Fang Chen.

"Your Highness, are you awake?"

A female officer stepped forward to change his clothes.

Fang Chen shook his drowsy head, "Are Niangniang and Your Majesty still in the palace?" ”

The female officer nodded, "Your Highness is going to ask for peace?" ”

Fang Chen wiped his face casually, "No, I'm going to go to the Emperor Taishang to learn today!" ”

Baiguan Xiumu, what does he have to do with him, when it is time to go to school, no one can run!

"Second brother, I'll go with you!"

"Second brother, wait for me!"

Today, there are two more temporary "companions", which are quite interesting. The companion who was set before was worry-free, and he hasn't seen each other yet, and I heard that it seems that he can't enter the palace until this year is over, otherwise the rules are not suitable.

Moreover, the Yan family has to prepare rich gifts and send them to the Taiji Palace together.

Fang Chen didn't know that when he woke up, someone had told Li Shimin.

Standing at the gate of the palace with the eldest grandson, the three brothers walked away.

"That's good!"

Snuggling up to Li Shimin, the eldest grandson said with a smile.

Li Shimin also subconsciously sighed: "Yes, if I and my eldest brother can be like Yu'er and them, there will not be so many incidents." ”

The two were silent at the same time, and that incident was not a kind of torture for them?

In the Taiji Palace, Li Yuan looked at Fang Chen, Li Chengqian, and Li Tai with a smile on his face.

"You two stinky boys, how did you come to my palace today?"

Li Chengqian and Li Tai bowed down to greet Li Yuan, and then explained: "We also want to learn a lesson from Grandpa Huang for a day. ”

"Good, very good! The children can be taught! ”

First, he ordered someone to prepare paper and pen for them to make it easier to record, and then Li Yuan stood up and started today's topic.

"Gentleman's six arts, music!"

There are six music in the Tang Dynasty, namely Yunmen, Daxian, Dashao, Daxia, Dahan, and Dawu, which correspond to the sacrificial dance that has been handed down since ancient times. In addition to this, it is also necessary to touch various musical instruments, such as pipa, reed sheng, gonghou, flute, etc......

There are many men who touch the qin, even if the Li family, a big clan that was once associated with the Hu people, there are also legends, but Fang Chen has never been in contact with it, and when a real guqin is placed in front of him, he is really a little overwhelmed.

On the other hand, Li Chengqian and Li Tai seem to have understood each other for a long time and have already begun to audition.

"Yu'er, do you know the piano?"

"The disciple doesn't understand, please give me advice."

"Music is divided into five tones: Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu; This piano has seven strings, also known as the lyre. You've tried them all. ”

Ancient books record that Fuxi made the qin, and there are legends such as Shennong making the qin, the Yellow Emperor making the qin, and Tang Yao making the qin; Shun Dingqin is five strings, and King Wen adds one string. King Wu added another string to seven strings. It can be said that the origin of this piano is very mythical!

"Yes, sir."

After plucking the strings one by one, Fang Chen clarified the timbre of the seven strings, and the next step was for Li Yuan to play a song first.

The sound of the piano has always been, the birds and birds are singing, silent everywhere, swinging in the heaven and earth.

The fingers turned into dancing elves, sometimes mischievous, sometimes calm, sometimes jumping, sometimes like a killing god on the battlefield.

Fang Chen listened attentively, and his memory began to repeat every action of Li Yuan's playing the piano before, and he couldn't help but applaud in his heart!
