The song was ethereal and soft, like the sound of a fairy in the sky. The officials followed the sound, but saw that under the hazy moonlight, on the small platform at the turn of the overpass, a graceful figure in white gauze was standing against the railing, with his arms stretched out, singing loudly. Soon, the officials saw another beautiful figure dancing lightly under the moon on another small platform on the other side.

The beautiful poems of the water tune song head, coupled with the light song and dance of the two women under the moon, made all the officials stare blankly for a while, and they didn't know where to go.

"It's them, these two women are Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang of Hangzhou Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion back then, it's definitely them. I've seen their dancing skills and singing voices below. At that time, they were popular all over the south of the Yangtze River and Zhejiang, and they were the leaders of the southeast Oiran. Hey, I didn't expect that they disappeared a few years ago, but today they are listening to fairy music and dancing in the capital, which is really glad and joyful. Someone on the seat in the east building exclaimed in a low voice.

"I didn't expect Lord Wang to be a fellow traveler. At that time, I also often went to Hangzhou, one for the beautiful scenery of the West Lake in Hangzhou, and the other for Wanhualou and Gu Panpan, the two oiran girls. We're not afraid of your jokes, I was extremely obsessed with them at the beginning. I do remember what you said, and it has been years since I heard from them. After the Three Cities Oiran Contest, there was no news. The situation was turbulent, and I never went to Hangzhou again. Another middle-aged official sighed softly.

"The two adults don't know, how did you say that Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang disappeared? That's because Wanhualou and Qunfangge changed hands, and the two Oiran were in a bad situation. Reputedly...... It is said that Lin Xiang rescued them and sent them to Funiu Mountain. No, Lin Xiang led the army back to the capital, and Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan went out of the mountain again. An official next to him whispered.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? The two officials asked in surprise.

"Is that still fake? Don't you see the two Oiran in front of you singing gracefully and dancing beautifully, do you know that one of these two was disfigured, and the other was almost tortured to death? It's just that the owner who took over Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion forced them to ...... Hey, don't talk about it. In other words, now we can see them singing and dancing, which is really rare. Speaking of which, it is embarrassing. ”

The two officials were stunned and speechless for a while. Looking up at the window, the two women under the moon had finished their thanksgiving and began to sing the second tune.

"The clouds are gone, the bright moon shines on people, and the reunion is the most prosperous.

Clear and shallow ponds, mandarin ducks playing in the water, red clothes and green covers, and Tillian open.

Both pairs are right, love and love, this garden wind blows towards the good flowers, and the tenderness and honey are full of the world. ”

Compared with the high emptiness of the previous water tune song, this song of the full moon is more warm and sweet. Gu Panpan's singing voice has also changed from ethereal and lofty to sweet and lovely. There seems to be honey dripping from the song, which makes the hearts of all who listen to this song sweet and peaceful.

In the box of the 'Pavilion in the Sky', when the singing of the water tune song head sounded, and when Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang appeared to sing and dance, Lin Jue was also surprised for a moment. This is not a program arranged by him, Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan have not seen them since they came to Beijing, but they have dealings with them. Lin Jue was busy with the affairs of the government and the military affairs of the army, and he had no leisure, and he didn't know the recent situation of Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan. If it weren't for the banquet here today, Lin Jue would not have had the opportunity to enjoy the singing and dancing of the two.

When Lin Jue listened to Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang's light song and dance, he was also very emotional. The change of human fate is real

People are elusive. At the beginning, Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang almost died in Hangzhou, and they saved them by chance, and now they can sing and dance here, which is really a matter of creation. If they hadn't gone to Hangzhou for other things, they would have been dead long ago.

It seems that it was because Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion were transferred from the palace to Qian Zhongze, and Qian Zhongze forced the two Oiran to sell themselves, but in fact, it was the huge impact of the turmoil of the overall situation of the country on the fate of individuals.

If it weren't for the fact that King Guo Bing of Liang had to resell the properties of Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion due to pressure, Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang would still be living a very prosperous life. But Guo Bing was forced to sell Wanhualou because of the situation, and Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang had no way to decide their fate. And the reason why Guo Bing wanted to sell Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion was because of Guo Chong's pressure. Guo Bing didn't want to be caught by Guo Chong, so he sold the Qinglou property. The tragic part of the fate of the little people is that they can't control their own fate at all, and the turmoil of the times, a simple decision by a powerful person can change their fate in an instant. The fate of the individual is in the overall situation, and there is no resistance at all in the decision-making of the high-ranking and powerful people, just like the fluffy grass in the wind, without any direction, flying with the wind, or up or down without dignity and autonomy. And the original intention of working hard for many years is not to be able to decide your own destiny independently, and you don't want to let your fate be controlled by others?

I have to say that after suffering and life and death, Lin Jue felt something he hadn't felt before from Gu Panpan's singing and Chu Xiangxiang's dancing. The setbacks and tribulations also polished the hearts of Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang, which can be felt from their singing and dancing. At that time, the two top brands of Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion were so proud and domineering, they regarded themselves as phoenixes in the sky, and they were naturally sought after by those worshippers. Their singing and dancing skills at that time were naturally exquisite, but their singing voices lacked soul and dancing skills lacked spirit. It's just simple singing and dancing skills, although they are good, but they are difficult to impress and infect people. You can't say they can't sing or dance well, but they always feel like something is missing. And tonight, Lin Jue heard something different in Gu Panpan's singing. When singing the water tune, the song head is more open-minded and lofty, and when the moon is full, it is more sweet and warm, which is the improvement after experiencing the experience of the state of mind and the tempering of the world. This is no longer a skill that can be shown, it is the expression of inner emotions, and it is the sudden realization after practicing the world.

"Okay, you're a fool, you're going to be a sycophant. When did you secretly invite these two to come, and they sang the two lyrics of our Lin Xiang, is this the small program you arranged? But it took a lot of thought. You don't leak a drop of water. Hahaha. Ma Qingshan pointed at Zhang Tong and said with a smile.

Everyone at the banquet laughed, and Ma Bin praised with his big fingers: "Shopkeeper Zhang is a businessman, if he is an official, I am afraid that he will not be a straight up." ”

Zhang Tong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Adults are making fun of it, Xiao Lao'er just thinks that tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the guests are full, how can there be no words and songs to help the fun when enjoying the moon." If you talk about Mid-Autumn Festival lyrics and songs, who can you sing except Lin Xiang? The lyrics of the water tune song have not been sung in the capital for several years, and Lin has been for many years...... After leaving Beijing that year, Lin Xiang's poems were banned from singing, and today Xiao Lao'er is also hearing it again, and he is actually full of emotion and sigh in his heart. ”

When everyone heard this, they put away the teasing and nodded silently. After Lin Jue betrayed the capital, all poetry and articles about him were banned. Lin Jue's lyrics that were sung by various Qinglou song houses

They were also forbidden to sing again. At the beginning, most of the diners in Fanlou ordered music with Lin Jue's lyrics, and later they were not allowed to order Lin Jue's lyrics, Zhang Tong naturally knew it. Zhang Tong said the truth, in the past few years, the world is complicated, chaotic, and upside down.

"The shopkeeper has a heart, which is really emotional. However, what I'm curious about is how you found Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang, and how you were able to invite the two of them. As far as I know, it's been a long time since they've been exposed. Lin Jue said with a smile.

Zhang Tong said with a smile: "Let's ask the two of you to explain to Lin Xiang by yourself, they are here." ”

On the overpass, Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang, who had finished the performance, had already met together, and slowly walked towards the pavilion in the air where Lin Jue and the others were. The two of them stood outside the fence of the pavilion and saluted the people inside.

"Gu Panpan, Chu Xiangxiang has seen Lin Xianggong and all the adults."

Lin Jue smiled: "The two of you gave us a surprise, I didn't know there was such an arrangement beforehand." ”

Gu Panpan covered his face with a thin veil, covering his ruined face, and said softly: "Lin Xiang is full of opportunities, busy with affairs, our sisters have been in and out of your house many times and haven't seen Lin Xiang, how can you tell me?" Today, the shopkeeper was warmly invited, and it was Lin Xiang's banquet, so our sisters naturally came to help the fun. The years are not forgiving, the singing and dancing skills have been abandoned, I am afraid it will be difficult to get into the ears and eyes, I hope that Lin Xiang and all the adults Haihan. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "You guys are too humble, today's two tunes are the most comfortable I have heard in a few years." The skills of the two have been reborn to perfection, the ethereal is incomparably open beyond the nine heavens, and the honey is like fireworks in the world, infinitely beautiful. Thank you both for the enjoyment. ”

Gu Panpan's beautiful eyes lit up, and Chu Xiangxiang, who was also happy, glanced at each other, and breathed a long sigh of relief. Delin Jue praised it so much, tonight's performance was a success.

"The shopkeeper won't tell me how he found you. Haven't you long since stopped performing? Is it for the sake of my Lin someone's face? Lin Jue asked with a smile.

"Not exactly. I'm not offending Lin Xiang by saying this, but to tell the truth, we have actually reached a business cooperation with Shopkeeper Zhang. In the near future, we will reopen the song hall and operate it in cooperation with Fan Lou. Lin Xiang, didn't you listen to the ladies in the family? Gu Panpan said with a smile.

Lin Jue was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Do you want to cooperate with Fan Lou to open a song studio?" I really don't know. How? Are you going to go back out of the mountain? ”

Gu Panpan said: "Didn't Lin Xiang call on all walks of life to work hard to revitalize? My sister and I discussed, what are we doing idle? It is better to open a song hall and teach singing and dancing skills, or to respond to Lin Xiang's words and contribute to the prosperity of the Great Zhou. It is said that singing and dancing is a prosperous age, although the Red Pavilion Song Shop is a place of red dust, but it is also a sign of the prosperity of my Great Zhou, isn't it? ”

Lin Jue slowly got up, stroked his palms and laughed: "That's right, that's how it should be." It is better to be born than to enter the WTO, and it is better to be aggressive and make your own contribution than to be alone, which is the attitude of life. Thank you both. Come, please take a seat, and I will toast you. ”

When Gu Panpan and Chu Xiangxiang thanked each other, Zhang Tong asked Fan Lou's men to hold the lamp. The guys of Fan Lou lit the lights one after another, but they were not the white candles before, but the palace lamps that had been hung in advance. I thought it was just decoration, but I didn't expect it to be prepared lights. But seeing the lights of the palace flickering, shining like a galaxy, beautiful. Once again, the whole feast entered the climax.
