Chapter 50: Emperor Xian visits Cai Wenji

The medicine prescribed by the imperial physician Ji Ping for Weitong really worked very well, and after taking one dose, it has already shown its efficacy.

After Junchen saw it, Liu Xie pulled Zhen Mi over, pointed at Cai Yan, and said, "Sister, this is the famous Cai Yan Cai Wenji, the first talented woman in the Eastern Han Dynasty." ”

Zhen Mi exclaimed: "Oh my God, is this really Aunt Wen Ji?" I'm so happy to be able to meet my aunt. ”

Cai Yan also smiled: "Little sister, I'm not as godly as Your Majesty said, what a talented woman, she is bragged about, and it is not worth mentioning." ”

Zhen Mi said: "No, aunt, you really deserve to be the first talented girl, and you are also good-looking with your real name!" ”

Cai Yan was embarrassed by what she said, and Liu Xie said: "Auntie, my Taixue School is going to open a women's school, and it will specially recruit talented girls to study. You're going to be a literature teacher, you see. ”

Cai Yan said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your love, the courtiers will definitely live up to the trust." ”

Liu Xie said again: "Auntie's eighteen beats of Hu Ji, I play it well, I am stupid to listen to, but it's a pity that Yaxing was disturbed by that group of pickled people, it's really hateful!" ”

Cai Yan smiled and said: "If Your Majesty wants to listen, the courtiers will play a song." ”

"Very good, very good!" Liu Xie pulled Zhen Mi to sit on the ground, waiting to listen to the music.

Cai Yan set up the piano, and Liu Xie asked again: "Auntie, do you have any allusions to the eighteenth beat of this beard?" ”

Cai Yan smiled and said: "When the courtiers were young, they traveled to the north with their father, and they heard the tunes of the Hu people, which were very good, so they were moved to do this Hu Ji eighteen beats, but many places have not been perfected. ”

Liu Xie knew in his heart that in the original history, Cai Yan was taken captive by King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu for 12 years, and gave birth to two sons in the Xiongnu, during which he composed a lot of poems and musical scores, the most famous of which is the sad and indignant poem and Hu Ji 18 beats, and the poems and music tell about her miserable and bumpy life.

Hu Ji's eighteen beats were perfected by her during that period.

And now that Liu Xie has changed history, Cai Yan will not be taken captive to the Xiongnu, so her eighteen beats of Hu Ji may not be perfected, no wonder Cai Yan is saying this song at the moment, she still has a lot of places that have not been perfected.

Even so, this imperfect piece of music is elegant and melodious when played.

Liu Xiedu listened to it stupidly, especially when he played it in person, and he couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart, thinking that Cai Yan was bumpy and miserable in the original history, first her husband died of illness, and then drifted away through the troubled times, and was taken captive by the Huns as a slave for 12 years, and finally was ransomed by Cao Cao with a lot of money.

Well, now Liu Xie thought to himself, what a special Lao Tzu has changed history! Beauty will never suffer such sins again. Not only will her husband not die, but he will be cured, and he will live with her and Meimei, and he will have children of his own! It is even more unlikely that she will be taken captive to the Huns.

Liu Xie couldn't help but be very excited: Haha, the special Lao Tzu is the savior!

After the song was played, seeing Liu Xiezheng looking at him with a smile, Cai Yan asked, "Why is Your Majesty smiling?" Could it be that the courtiers don't play well or the courtiers are ugly? ”

Liu Xie smiled and said: "No, my aunt not only plays well, but also looks beautiful, no wonder Yang Xiu's kid ranked you in the third place in the group of flowers, sure enough." Auntie, you don't know anything, since ancient times, it has been said that the red face is thin, I don't believe it, I want to make the red face and the beauty laugh. So Auntie, your life will be better and better in the future, and you will have a time to laugh in the future. But you can't let a comfortable life waste your poetic talents. ”

"Your Majesty's lesson," Cai Yan said, "the courtiers will definitely not fail Your Majesty's trust." ”

"By the way, I have something to ask for."

"Your Majesty, don't say that, Your Majesty has orders, even if it is a sea of swords and fire, the courtiers will never frown."

"That's right," Liu Xie said, "it's going to be a war, and this common people have just been stable for two days, and they have to go through war again." I want to choreograph a large-scale musical and dance show, and you will be the chief director. ”

"Chief Director?" Cai Yan asked curiously, not understanding what the so-called chief director was in Liu Xie's mouth.

Liu Xie said: "It is the meaning of the chief choreographer and the chief conductor, this song and dance drama, you will be the screenwriter and designer of the whole process, how about it, do you have this confidence." ”

Cai Yan said: "To contribute to Your Majesty, the courtiers are confident, but they don't know what kind of song and dance drama Your Majesty needs." ”

Liu Xie stood up, paced around the room, and after a moment of silence, said: "Majestic, euphemistic and melodious, inspiring to watch, and moving to hear." First, we must improve morale, second, we must stabilize the people's hearts, and third, we must develop our ambitions. ”

Cai Yan asked, "Can Your Majesty be a little more specific?" ”

Liu Xie said: "The grand ambition of conquering Chang'an in the west and revitalizing the Han family, you have to show it in song and dance, this is not me bragging about myself, it is really necessary to boost morale and people's hearts." In short, I want the people to see this song and dance and have full confidence in my future. ”

"I understand," Cai Yan said, "but the courtier's strength alone may not be able to support it." ”

"If you want someone to ask for money, you can just say it."

Cai Yan said: "A general outline has been formed in the minds of the courtiers, but such an atmospheric song and dance drama needs a lot of talents in poetry and music to assist me and help me make suggestions." ”

"I will assign you a large number of musicians and BAs, and you will allocate them at your discretion."

"That's a lot easier to do."

"How long will it take?"

"One year."

"A year? It's been too long! Can it be done in a month? You must know that Luoyang can only have a stable life for a month at most. ”

"Your Majesty, a month is too rushed, if it's too urgent, the courtiers can arrange an overture first."

"Overture? The overture is the overture. ”

When he came to Cai Yan, Liu Xie was reluctant to leave, and finally let him find a celebrity in troubled times, how could he leave so easily?

A few people chatted happily, and from time to time Cai Yan would play a song. Liu Xie said: "Auntie, don't go to the poetry club to sell art in the future, how can you go to the market to sell art to survive with such high musical attainments?" Is this a waste of art? ”

Cai Yan nodded in agreement, and Cai Yong said: "Your Majesty, when you ascended the throne, many people were not optimistic about you, who would have thought that you would be such a great emperor." ”

Liu Xie smiled: "Lao Cai, you are an honest gentleman, how come you have begun to learn to pat on the back?" ”

Cai Yong said: "What the old minister said is true, what kind of emperor Your Majesty is, this is obvious to the common people." ”

Xiao Luozi followed and said: "If it weren't for Your Majesty, Chang'an Luoyang would still be Dong Zhuo's world now, and I don't know how many people will die, in short, Lord Cai, you and Your Majesty are right." You have to do your best to contribute to Your Majesty, and if you contribute to Your Majesty, that is, to contribute to the common people in the world. ”

"Yes, my father-in-law taught me."
