Chapter 9 Loaded in front of the courtiers 13

"Come on, get me a pipa!"

At this time, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun looked at each other, and they were bound to think in their hearts, when will Li Chengqian play the pipa, and Li Chengqian has never been to Yuefu to learn any musical instrument, how can this be demonstrated?

Taking advantage of the fact that the pipa did not come, Li Chengqian first said: "I have watched the craftsman pluck the strings of the pipa more than once countless times, and I also know that the four strings can produce more than 10 million sounds...... So I also played with this string in my spare time, and realized a new way to play. ”

He was talking nonsense, and everyone was stunned when they heard it, as if they believed it.

Who knows, Li Chengqian was a musician before the crossing, proficient in the guitar, this pipa and guitar, there are still things in common, he has also tried it out, and he once watched a master perform on a certain station.

Soon, the pipa was obtained, this one is a red-faced lacquered pipa, and the whole shape is very beautiful.

It's just that these things are put in front of Li Chengqian, like a behemoth.

He had some difficulty even picking it up, but it caused everyone to laugh.

If it weren't for Li Shimin, I'm afraid they would have laughed a long time ago.

"This ......"

Empress Changsun was a little distressed and tried to help, but was stopped by Li Shimin.

"Let Gao Ming come by himself, my Tang prince is responsible for what he says!"

Li Shimin's strictness is well known.

Li Chengqian didn't ask for help, this is his business, and he can't be looked down upon.

If it had been before, it would have been a lot, but the eight-year-old boy was a little struggling, but fortunately, he found a relatively stable point and lifted the lute horizontally.

Unexpectedly, this horizontal made the ministers laugh.

Originally, the audience was silent, but because of his behavior, one person came out to stop him: "His Royal Highness the Prince, why are you doing this?" That's not how the pipa is played! ”

Everyone was in a hurry, but anyone who had used the pipa knew that this lute was meant to be played vertically, so what was the matter with him being played horizontally?

There were already people with a look of suspicion and even disdain on their faces, in their opinion, this was a blasphemy against the lute, how could such an all-inclusive instrument be treated like this?

In their opinion, Li Chengqian is a child who doesn't know how to play musical instruments! It's just grandstanding!

At the same time, everyone's gaze at Li Chengqian has also become strange, and some people have begun to wonder if Li Chengqian is tricking them! But he is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, even if he does this, he will naturally be punished by Li Shimin.

while

The sound of the pipa aroused everyone's disdain.

Someone who understood the matter first said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be auditioning, and he hasn't played it yet, what are you anxious about!" ”

Perhaps this can only be explained.

But Li Chengqian directly set up the pipa and said:

"Who says you can't play the lute like that? Who prescribes? As long as I play smoothly and well, I can play as much as I like. ”

There is a big one, otherwise you will bite my frame!

Xu Jingzong directly questioned: "His Royal Highness the Prince's pipa playing method has been passed down from generation to generation in ancient times, it's not appropriate for you to do this!" ”

Li Chengqian turned his head and ignored Xu Jingzong, this thing is not worth arguing about.

"Listen to me, the soundtrack of my article is different, and it has to be played like this to complement each other!"

Although Li Chengqian said so, no one was optimistic about him.

In their solidified thoughts, this pipa can only be played vertically, not horizontally, which is also a rule handed down by the ancestors and cannot be broken.

There are also some people who simply break out in a cold sweat for Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian smiled, this is the best, the shock brought by this can bring me more points.

Li Chengqian showed disdain for all worldly visions.

The lute he holds in his hand is the same as he used to hold a guitar.

When he held the pipa on his hips, he actually had the feeling of a guitar.

The lute is four-stringed, while the guitar has six-strings, and the two instruments have similarities and differences. If you feel different things from the same place, it can be regarded as a kind of progress. The effect of playing the guitar on the lute, in this era, he is definitely the first.

(There is no basis for the words, there is a video as proof, see Li Chengqian's station "Chinese Music Master Plays the Pipa as an Electric Guitar" for details)

Li Chengqian did not use the guitar to play the melody of the tune, but used it as an accompaniment, and wanted to give new chords.

boom

Li Chengqian's immature hand slapped on the pipa and made a clanging sound.

He wanted to say that this time, it was a little painful, and sure enough, this body was still too petite.

But the arrow is on the bow and has to be sent.

This sound surprised the people around, and people didn't know that this was the so-called drum beat, which was the rhythm brought by beating the board. It can make the whole piece more alive.

From now on, a lute becomes two instruments.

A burst of crispness, a burst of abundance

Li Chengqian began to play the chords, and I have to say that this chord made everyone listen to it a little peculiar.

With a prelude that was familiar to him, he began to sing.

"When is the bright moon? Ask the sky for wine......"

Every phrase here will be accompanied by chords, and he begins to chant in his somewhat childish voice.

The people present were fascinated by what they heard, especially Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, but they heard a new feeling.

The better Li Chengqian's performance, the more face-saving it will be for Li Shimin.

“…… I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”

When he finished drinking the last word, everyone paused for a long time before realizing that it was the end of the song, and they had to applaud.

Everyone in the Taiji Palace, including the ministers and palace maids, etc., they all applauded from the heart.

Xu Jingzong didn't say anything at this time, after all, the performance of this instrument has proven everything, regardless of whether the text was written by Li Chengqian or not, judging from his pipa horizontal playing, this is definitely the existence of a master.

This dose of medicine came just right.

Because at this time, in Li Chengqian's mind, there were already continuous voices sounding one after another.

"Congratulations to the host, ten points."

"Congratulations to the host, ten points."

"Congratulations to the host, 20 points."

……

This time, at least it brought him more than two thousand points, and now he has reached two thousand five points, and there are still more than two thousand points from five thousand, which should not be slow.

However, my hand was already red and swollen, and it really hurt!

Li Shimin's dragon heart is happy.

"Come on, copy this song "When Will the Bright Moon Exist" into Yuefu and incorporate it into the hand-me-down!"

This is amazing, so Li Chengqian is quite valued!

At the same time, this song will also be circulated, and in their spare time, Li Shimin and the ministers can still listen to it once, and in their opinion, Li Chengqian can make this song, it must be accidental.

So I didn't ask him to compose again, after all, he was the crown prince, and he should focus on his studies, not engage in these illusory things.
