Chapter 052: Art Garden (7)
Cao Cao's request to redeem Cai Wenji to the Central Plains was conveyed by Dong Ci, but was brutally rejected by King Zuoxian; Dong Xi told King Zuoxian: The Xiongnu Shan Yu Huchuquan is still in Yecheng.
Dong Ci did not say the words that Shan Yu Hu Chuquan was under house arrest, but King Zuo Xian had long known it; knew that Cao Cao was going to exchange Xiongnu Shan Yu for Cai Wenji, so he was forced to be helpless; King Zuo Xian had no choice but to promise Dong Xi to let Cai Wenji return to Han.
Cai Wenji finally returned to the Central Plains after 12 years of exile from the Xiongnu, and the sorrow and pain suppressed in her heart were vented; "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji" was written under such circumstances.
Liu Min read Cai Wenji's misfortune from history textbooks in later generations, and saw her appear in the eighth year of Kaibao in the Song Dynasty, more than 700 years after the Eastern Han Dynasty; It was immediately determined that it was a fairy body.
Liu Mincheng stared at Cai Wenji in fear, but Cai Wenji spoke over there: "Why are you standing so far away since you came......" In Cai Wenji's powerful voice, the sound of the piano and singing stopped abruptly.
Liu Min was dumbfounded, and muttered silently in fear: It turns out that Cai Cairen already knew that Liu Min came to her? It's really a god, her face has been playing the piano and singing to the north; And Liu Min and Wen'er are standing behind her!
What? Since Cai Cairen has become an immortal, he reappeared after 700 years, and found that it was not easy for people standing behind him!
Liu Min reacted quickly, trotted to the pavilion, stood in front of Cai Wenji, pressed his hands on his hips, respectfully said one by one, and said: "Folk girl Liu Min, offend the fairy Gu Cai Cairen!" Cai Cairen is invited to accept the little girl Liu Min! Liu Min said with a deep sigh.
Cai Wenji turned around and stared at Liu Min, and saw that she was seven or eight years old and beautiful; The little mouth was as smart as a starling, and he couldn't help but smile brightly, and said: "The master of Xuanji Cave asked the slave family to teach the nobleman singing and piano skills on Tianyan Island, and it turned out that the nobleman was a seven or eight-year-old child!" ”
Wen'er picked up on the side and said: "Aunt Fairy, my master is only seven or eight years old, but she is a noble person in the future!" ”
Cai Wenji didn't speak, picked up the pipa and handed it to Liu Mindao: "You have been coming to Tianyan Island for a long time, listening to the slave family playing and singing "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats" and "Pipa Xing" for a long time, you must be proficient in your ears!" ”
Liu Min couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Cai Wenji say this; He said silently in his heart: "It turns out that this place is called Tianyan Island!" The eye of heaven and the eye of the sky, is it the eye of heaven? ”
Liu Min was silent for a while, and looked at Cai Wenji; But she handed over the pipa and said, "Since Liu Min has been on Tianyan Island for half a day, then play a song "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats" and listen to it!" ”
What a thing it is! Liu Min has never been in contact with the pipa, and Cai Wenji actually asked her to play "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats"; Isn't this a rush to the shelves?
Liu Min froze and excused himself: "No, no, no...... Aunt Fairy...... Little...... Where...... Yes...... Playing the piano ......"
Wen'er picked up the words on the side: "Master, you are wrong! When we were in the art garden, the slave maid said, you are a nobleman, and you have fairy bones and tendons; Bathing and resting is to deduce the piano technique and singing, as long as you listen to the music in your ears, you can't help but sing and can play it with instrumental music! ”
Liu Min was stunned, stared at Wen'er with his eyes and said, "It's a good thing to have this file!" ”
Wen'er smiled and said, "If the master doesn't believe it, then try it with the pipa!" ”
Liu Minhu looked at Wen'er suspiciously, and then at Cai Wenji; Cai Wenji smiled and said, "Miss Wen'er's words are not wrong, Liu Min is now a skilled pianist!" Let's start singing and playing from the third beat of "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji"! ”
Liu Min didn't believe it was true, but Cai Wenji and Wen'er both said so, so they had to hold the pipa in their hands; Sitting on the long row of wooden chairs in the gazebo, his two hands pressed on the pipa very freely and played, and his mouth also echoed the chant to sing the third beat of "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji":
The Yue Han Kingdom entered Hucheng, and it was better to lose one's family than to have no life. The felt fur is shocked by the flesh and bones, and the karma is the taste of the sorrow to curb my feelings. The drums are noisy from the night, and Hu Feng is secretly camping. The sadness of the past is made of three shots, and when the sadness and hatred of the animals will be flat.
After Liu Min played and sang the third beat of "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats", he couldn't hold his mouth and continued to sing:
I don't think about my homeland day and night, and my temperament is more bitter than me. The country of natural disasters is chaotic and has no owner, but I have no prisoners. The vulgar heart is different, the body is difficult, and the appetite is different, who can speak! Thinking about the difficulties and obstacles involved, the four shots are sad and sad.
Yannan Zhengxi wants to send the side heart, and Yanbei returns to Xi to get Hanyin. The geese fly high and difficult to find, and the empty intestines are stunned. Raising eyebrows to the moon and caressing Yaqin, five beats are deep.
The frost is bitter cold, and hunger is too cold to eat meat and cheese. At night, I heard the sound of Longshui whimpering, and saw the Great Wall on a long road. Reminiscing about the past, it is difficult to luggage, and the six beats are sad and want to stop.
The twilight wind is sad and the side sounds are everywhere, and I don't know who the sadness is talking to! The wilderness is depressed and thousands of miles away, and the vulgar and low, the old, the weak, and the young are beautiful. There are water and grass to settle down in the base, and cattle and sheep are full of wild fields and gather like bee ants. The grass is exhausted, the sheep and horses are all migrated, and the seven beats of hatred and evil live here.
Liu Min kept playing and singing until the seventh beat of "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats" before he stopped staring at Cai Wenji and laughed, and said: "Aunt Cai, there are really incredible things in the world, the little girl just stood in front of the pavilion and listened to the song "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats", but I didn't expect to be able to play and sing in an instant!" Thank you, Aunt Cai! ”
Liu Min stood up and gave Cai Wenji a salute, clasped his hands into fists and shook them deeply, Cai Wenji hurriedly stopped and said: "You don't have to give a big salute, this is what the slave family should do on the orders of the master of Xuanji Cave!" ”
Cai Wenji said the above words, stared at Liu Min in a little surprise and smiled, and said, "How can the nobleman's saluting just now look like the bearded eyebrows on the rivers and lakes......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Min, Liu Min didn't expect that he would bring out the male behavior of the later generations of medical doctors without paying attention, and laughed twice and said: "The talented aunt is not wrong, the little girl has been practicing martial arts with others since she was a child, and the actions just now are the polite etiquette of the Jianghu people!" ”
Cai Wenji folded her hands and recited a Buddhist language, and said happily: "It seems that Wenji really met a confidant today!" ”
Cai Wenji said, glanced at Liu Min and then at Wen'er, and thought for a while: "For hundreds of years, many people suspect that "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji" is not Cai Wenji's creation; There are also hateful glances from people's heads, and there are endless arguments! ”
Liu Min heard Cai Wenji's voice, and hurriedly picked up the words: "Why did the talented aunt say this? After a slight pause, she stared at Cai Wenji and said, "In this case, Aunt Cainu might as well tell Xiaonu and Wen'er about the background and process of your creation of "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats"; Wouldn't it be better for the two of us to clean up the original source of "Hu Ji Eighteen Shots"! ”
Cai Wenji saw that Liu Min was well-behaved, so she smiled and said, "It's better this way!" ”
Liu Min and Wen'er sat down, and Cai Wenji talked about the background of the creation of "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji" and the origin of each beat.
The era in which Cai Wenji grew up was a year of great turmoil, and the background of the first shot was broken and chaotic - Hu Lu was strong, the beacon was everywhere, and the people were in exile.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, eunuchs, relatives, and warlords successively controlled the government, peasant uprisings, warlord melees, and foreign invasions. The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. It is a true portrayal of the turmoil at that time.
Cai Wenji was plundered and taken west by Hu cavalry in the chaos of war. The exile was the beginning of Cai Wenji's painful career; It is also the root of her painful life.
The second beat of "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji" is to write about the situation on her way to captivity, and in the tenth beat, she uses "a lifetime of hard work and separation," indicating that the misfortune of her life stems from her exile.
During the 12 years that Cai Wenji was forcibly left behind in the Southern Xiongnu, she endured great pain both in life and spiritually.
The nature of Hudi is harsh: "Hu Feng Haohao", "Frosty Cold", "Depression in the Wilderness", "Flowing Water Whimpering", and the life of the exotic and different places is incompatible with Luoyang, the imperial capital where she lives.
Clothes made of fur, wearing them on the body are shocking: "The felt fur is shocked by the flesh and bones." ”
Feeding on meat and milk, the smell is unpleasant, and I can't swallow it. ”
Cai Wenji will make the swan song of history with a realistic description of the living conditions of the Xiongnu.
There is no fixed place to live, migrating from water to grass, living in temporary huts made of straw rafts and dried cow and sheep dung; When excited, the drumming carnival sings and dances, and the noise is deafening all night.
Wang Zhaojun in front of Cai Wenji has experienced such a life, but Cai Wenji is much luckier than Wang Zhaojun.
Wang Zhaojun did not set foot on the land of the Central Plains again until his death, and he was filthy to Hu Han Evil Shan Yu as his wife; After his death, Huhan Yeshan gave his son a wife.
Cai Wenji could neither adapt to the harsh natural environment of Hudi, nor could she tolerate Hu habits, which were very different from those of the Han people; Therefore, he sang the painful voice of "the heart is different and the body is difficult, and the appetite is different, who can speak".
And the most unbearable thing for Cai Wenji is the spiritual level, Cai Wenji has experienced double humiliation: as a Han Chinese, she has become a captive of the Hu people; As a woman, she was forced to marry a Hu person......
