Chapter 31: Let's talk about songs

I want to think about it, but since Ling Huyu asked, you Zhang Wei can't say nothing.

What to say?

You can't tell Ling Huxuan that "A Pot of Old Wine" is a modern song, and he is also a modern person, right?

Zhang Wei is worthy of being Zhang Wei, of course he has his way, he has lived for more than 20 years, what kind of scene has not been seen, what kind of thing has not been passed, and he thought about it for a while: "Childe, this pot of old wine was originally when I was a monk, I saw others drinking and chatting, so I thought of my relatives and sang it casually on a whim." There was no rhyme or word board in the first place. Childe must not associate him with the songs sung in the current Chang'an wine shop. ”

Ling Hu Jian listened and looked at the young man in front of him in surprise.

How could he write poetry?

and can also create songs that Datang has never heard of.

It's incredible, it's incredible.

"Did you really write this song yourself?" Ling Hu looked at Zhang Wei with wide eyes.

Zhang Wei nodded heavily, "That's exactly what I did." ”

The matter has come to this point, even if Zhang Wei doesn't want to admit it, there is no way, I think that I have crossed over from modern society to Datang anyway, no one knows anyone, no one knows, under the "coercion" of all of you, I have to be a songwriter and singer for a while.

The lyricist of "A Pot of Old Wine", you old adults should forgive your little brother a lot. I had no choice but to plagiarize my brother's work.

As soon as he heard Zhang Wei's words, he seemed to be happy, "I knew that you were not an ordinary person, when Wen Tingyun brought you in that day, I could see at a glance that you were an extraordinary person, handsome, magnificent, and versatile, you are really a young talent!" ”

Good guy, Zhang Wei thought that only he would brag, but he didn't expect that this Tang Dynasty's bragging skills didn't have to be bad at all.

Oh, I didn't meet someone like you.

"Don't say that, the eldest son, Zhang Wei is just an ordinary person." Zhang Wei hurriedly said modestly.

"No, no, no, you're not ordinary, you're not an ordinary person, but an extraordinary person." When Zhang Wei admitted that a pot of old wine was made by himself, Ling Hulu firmly believed that he was not an ordinary person, but a very talented person, "That's the case, you don't want to go back to the grocery store for the time being, eat with me in the morning, and teach me to sing this old wine in the afternoon." ”

"A pot of old wine." Zhang Wei thought to himself, with your IQ, you can't remember such a simple name, what song are you still learning?

"Yes, yes, yes, it's a pot of old wine, let's learn 'a pot of old wine' together." Ling Hu said happily.

Teach you how to sing?

Zhang Wei looked at Ling Hulu in surprise, his expression full of distrust and suspicion.

"Why, Zhang Gongzi doubts my ability to learn songs? Let me tell you this, my Linghu Hu's singing level is still somewhat famous in the whole Chang'an. Ling Hu said a little proudly.

Zhang Wei does not doubt Ling Hulu's ability and level of singing, but suspects that you, Ling Hulu, as the eldest son of the prime minister's family, can't do so many things inside and outside the house.

If you don't do business all day long, why do you just like these entertainments?

What Zhang Wei didn't know was that the Datang society was a very inclusive society, and due to the great migration and integration of various ethnic groups, and the great exchange of music and dance culture, it provided extraordinary conditions for the rapid development of Datang song and dance art.

In the Tang Dynasty, princes and nobles, civil servants and military generals, and literati scholars all took pleasure in performing dances and were proud of being proficient in dance.

What's more, not only do the people like singing and dancing, but even the royal family likes it.

If nothing else, just look at the institutions that teach singing and dancing in the Tang Dynasty, and you will know how much His Majesty the Emperor and his concubines like singing and dancing.

The court of the Tang Dynasty set up the Taichang Temple, which was in charge of singing and dancing music (under the Advocacy Department and the Taile Department)

Taichang Temple has a Qing person, is three products; Shaoqing and the two are on the fourth grade.

See, an official in charge of singing and dancing turned out to be a third-grade official, which shows how much attention the Datang society attaches to singing and dancing.

In addition, there are many temporary institutions, such as Jiaofang, Liyuan, etc., where a large number of professional singing and dancing artists are concentrated.

What is good at the top will be very bad at the bottom.

Since the emperors of the Tang Dynasty liked this activity that was beneficial to physical and mental health, the ministers under them were all compared with each other, and the style of raising officials, campers and family officials was very popular.

Trick, in ancient times, was called a woman who was engaged in singing and dancing.

With such a social climate and political premise.

For the sake of their own future and destiny, many ministers also have to learn singing and dancing, once they have the opportunity, look at the right time, perform well, and strive to be like An Lushan, with their fat waist, beautiful Hu dance, to win the love of the emperor and concubines, and finally achieve their own political goals.

"Linghu Gongzi misunderstood, I was thinking that Gongzi is so busy all day long, why do you still have time to learn this?"

After listening to Zhang Wei's words, Ling Hu laughed, "Zhang Gongzi doesn't know that this Chang'an City is not only the political center of Datang, but also the singing and dancing center of Datang and even the whole world. Learn a good hand of singing and dancing, this is very useful! Not only can you win respect among your friends, but you may also be favored by Your Majesty in the court. ”

When he said this, he was envious.

Learning to sing and dance well can still get the favor of His Majesty the Emperor?

So His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, his old man also likes this? Do professionals like me have the opportunity to make a name for themselves in Datang society and achieve a great career?

"So Gongzi learned to sing this song 'a pot of old wine' to show His Majesty the Emperor?" Zhang Wei deliberately teased.

Ling Hu Yan smiled embarrassedly: "That's not it, even if I can't show it in front of His Majesty's Palace, at least I can show it to those friends." If I learn this first pot of old wine, let Zheng Hao and others envy it. ”

As for who Zheng Hao is in Ling Hu's mouth, Zhang Wei doesn't know. But one thing is very clear, that is, Zheng Hao in Ling Hu's mouth is definitely not an ordinary character.

A person who can make Ling Fox care about it very much, that must be a very important person.

"Okay---, since Childe loves it so much, then I'll teach you all my housekeeping skills." Zhang Wei smiled and said, "Childe, please sing with me and drink a pot of old wine,

Let me go back. When I looked back, I saw my mother's tears flowing. ”

So Zhang Wei began to teach Ling Huyu the song "A Pot of Old Wine" sentence by sentence.

"Drink a pot of old wine, let me go back---" Ling Hu sang along.

"No, no, when singing this song, it can't be too low, and it can't have the kind of affectionate tone between men and women, but it must be sung in a high-pitched and affectionate voice. Like me, drink a pot of old wine~~, let me go back. ”

Perhaps all the songs in the Tang Dynasty are too affectionate, so that Hu Jian always sings "A Pot of Old Wine" with a deep affection in it, which makes Zhang Wei very incomprehensible.

It's not that men and women have done too much, and their habits can't be changed for a while.

"Do you think that's okay?" Ling Hu changed his way of singing, and this time he sang in a sad voice, "Drink a pot of old wine----"

"No, it can't be too sad. The song is high-pitched, and it is the feeling of a child when he is about to leave his hometown and look back at his mother after drinking his mother's wine. Childe has a good experience. Just like me, drink a pot of old wine~~"

Time flies so fast, a few hours passed quickly, and Ling Hu didn't even learn the first paragraph, but his serious study made Zhang Wei recognize it.
