Chapter 41: Arrogant Anchor
A nobody who doesn't even know his name?
The difference in strength is too big, what is there to see in this battle between the old and the new?
With a sigh, another person at the table spoke again.
"The courage of the big lady is commendable, but she is so careful that she is so serious that she is out of ground."
"But Brother Dongfang, do you know what kind of song and poem she sang this time?"
"I don't know".
Dongfang Qiu didn't care.
"And why do you know?"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone praised it.
"What a pride!"
At this moment, Mrs. Wang, dressed in festive clothes, walked out with a smile after accepting the birthday greetings from the guests.
The full house of guests then got up.
The chatter at the table naturally ended.
The slaves came out one after another, and all kinds of sea and land delicacies were sent up, and the birthday feast officially began.
There are a lot of singing and dancing girls invited to the palace today, and basically every time they enter the courtyard, there are singing and dancing.
But all the guests' thoughts on watching the singing and dancing were concentrated in the main courtyard.
That is, in the third courtyard where Li Xingzhou was.
At the same time as the banquet began, the singing and dancing performance on the stage of the main courtyard also began.
Li Xingzhou was still standing by the window, carefully watching the performance on the stage.
After three rounds of wine, the banquet atmosphere has arrived, and Su Yujing, who is like jade, has officially entered the scene.
I saw her white shirt, green silk and ink, colorful fans elegant, like fairies, like a fairy, like a water elf as if coming from a dream.
A round of spring moon in the sky opens the palace mirror, the woman under the moon sometimes raises her wrist and lowers her eyebrows, sometimes lightly Shuyun hand, the fan in her hand is closed and held, like a pen walking dragon painting Danqing, jade sleeves are windy, elegant and vigorous. The sound of music is clear in the ears, the folding fan in the hand is like a wonderful pen like a silk string, turning, throwing, opening, closing, twisting, rounding, bending, flowing water like a dragon flying like a phoenix dancing.
There is a little red lip on the powdered face, and the expression is still ashamed. The delicate place is like a pink peach petal, and the demeanor has a beautiful orchid posture. Wearing a bright yellow and elegant long skirt, the side of the black hair is draped like a waterfall, and the face is plain and elegant.
Su Yujing's dance is remarkable, but Li Xingzhou's interest is not in this.
Su Yujing's subsequent singing attracted all his attention.
In the sound of the pipa like water, I heard Su Yujing sing loudly:
"White horse sweet pomegranate, a real straight cow.
White horse sweet pomegranate, a real straight cow.
White horse sweet pomegranate, a real straight cow. ”
This is an ancient style poem, and it is especially rhymed.
The poem itself is good, and there is Su Yujing to add color, so this poem is already full of color before it is sung.
When Su Yujing sang all the songs, he was even more praised.
Dongfang Qiu'an sat still, but the brilliance on his face became more and more prosperous.
As soon as this remark came out, the people at the table said yes one after another.
At this time, everyone agreed that there was no suspense in today's so-called dispute between the front and back of the Great Oiran.
No matter how unwilling Yu Youwei is, in the case of equal appearance and skills, she can only see the high and low with songs and poems, she is bound to lose.
Jiang is still old and spicy, the leader of the poetry league, this status is not given for nothing after all.
Can Yu Youwei's singing surpass this one?
At this time, Mrs. Wang got up and left her seat and walked to other courtyards.
And the man who followed her also hurriedly got up and left.
In fact, there was no need to do this with her identity, but she was born with a lively lifestyle, so she had such a move.
This was originally an unintentional move, but in the eyes of many guests in the courtyard, Mrs. Wang's departure seemed to confirm their views even more.
Look, even the master's house is gone, which means that the ** of today's song and dance has passed, and there should be nothing to see in the future.
Those who can sit in this courtyard are either high-ranking officials or extremely favorable.
For example, although that Dongfang Qiu is only a fifth-grade bachelor, he has recently been a saint, so he was able to enter this main courtyard to sit, and Rao is so, and he is also arranged to the seat at the top edge.
Since all of you here are high-ranking officials, you are naturally busy.
Seeing that the birthday was congratulated, the wine was eaten, the master also went to another courtyard, and the main owner, Princess Taiping, did not come back, so he had the intention of leaving.
But as soon as they got up, they saw Yu Youwei walking out of the stage.
The person who arranged the singing and dancing today was also very calculating, and directly lined up Yu Youwei and Su Yujing together.
As soon as Yu Youwei came out, the person who had already gotten up sat down again.
I thought to myself, after all, it was a generation of Oiran, so it was not too late to listen to what she sang and then leave.
Su Yujing danced a healthy dance, and Yu Youwei used a soft dance to get her hands on, and it was really difficult to distinguish between rigidity and softness.
After a dance, everyone knows that the following is a poem.
As a result, the originally noisy courtyard fell silent.
In this silence, a soulful guzheng song rose slowly.
With the decline of Qing Shangle, the rise of Yanle, which was more hedonistic and free-spirited.
In the Tang Dynasty, when the singers sang and played poems, almost all of them were accompanied by pipa and tooth plates.
It's almost conventional.
It is indeed rare for Yu Youwei to be led by a guzheng when singing poems on such an important occasion.
The guzheng sounded, and it has received the effect of taking the lead!
In the sound of the zheng, Yu Youwei let go of her charming and affectionate singing voice and sang:
Canghai laughed
The tide on both sides of the strait
Ups and downs follow the waves
The sky laughs
The tide of the world
God knows who loses and who wins......"
As soon as these four sentences came out, the guests in the courtyard were shocked again
You must know that this "A Laugh in the Sea" is a classic in the modern film industry.
In 1990, Huang Zhan was commissioned to compose music for Tsui Hark's movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and wrote six drafts, but Tsui Hark was not satisfied.
I thought that the most "easy" is the Chinese pentatonic scale (Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, Yu), so I changed it to "Yu, Zheng, Jiao, Shang, Gong", and tried it before the piano, and listened to it tactfully, with melodious sound and color, quite the charm of ancient Chinese music, so I wrote the whole melody of "A Laugh in the Sea".
Evolved into a melodic undulating, catchy minor key, accompanied by proud, airy lyrics.
A powerful aura that is in a high place, but the heart is calm, comes to the face.
The friendship between Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng, the two masters, was vividly expressed.
The musical instruments of this song include the flute, the guqin and the three strings.
The rhythm of the drums is added to the background of the music.
The steady percussion of the drums is combined with the rhythm of the singing.
The melody falls step by step, first suppressed and then raised, and the peaks turn around.
The listener also fell into desolation and loneliness step by step with the imagery of the music.
Through the integration of sound and picture, the audience is brought into the psychological world of "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
The melody of the song is simple and melodious, and the lyrics also have a taste of song lyrics.
It reveals a strong Chinese chivalrous wind.
This song is no longer just a simple movie song.
It seems that when people mention "Smiling Proud Jianghu", they will mention "A Laugh in the Sea".
In later editions of "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
"A Laugh in the Sea" has become a repertoire.
The chorus of Xu Guanjie, Huang Zhan and Zhang Weiwen (the behind-the-scenes singers of Ling Hu Chong, Liu Zhengfeng, and Qu Yang in the film) makes the song even more imposing.
Grievances and grievances, all love and hatred dissipated in that laughter.
Three old men, smiling, sang the song loudly.
The slightly rough voice makes the vicissitudes of the song as clear as a passing cloud.
The great thing about this song is that the lyrics remain the same, and it is equally tonal when sung in Cantonese and Chinese.
But it's just as good.
A second song is almost impossible to find in this form of song.
Because when Huang Zhan wrote this song, he filled in the lyrics completely according to the ancient Chinese pronunciation.
But the song doesn't feel old, it's still so new.
This is where the yellow stain is amazing.
But Li Xingzhou asked Yu Youwei to sing, although she didn't have that desolate temperament.
However, it has a different flavor.
Compared with the one of Dongfang Qiu. Li Xingzhou's copy of this article is a masterpiece of words, which can be called a famous article.
Although there is a difference between a famous sentence and a famous article, the difference is huge.
Yu Youwei uses a looping singing style.
This word was only sung twice in a row before the end of the beating.
Compared with poetry, the lyrics are more suitable for singing.
At this point, Yu Youwei has a natural advantage.
The words are good, and they are perfectly matched with the sound quality characteristics of Yu Youwei.
Then there is her singing skills accumulated over the years and the perfect interpretation of the soundtrack by everyone's musicians.
This song and poem can be said to be impeccable from the lyrics to the song to the singing performance.
Even Li Xingzhou, who knew the content of the singing for a long time, was fascinated by it, let alone the other people in the courtyard?
After Yu Youwei finished the shooting, the courtyard was still silent.
At this moment, the vast majority of people who can sit in this courtyard are from the imperial examination, and how can people who have been dealing with words all their lives not judge the quality of this "song lyrics"?
Chew carefully, only to feel the words beads. Reciting silently, it is really fragrant!
At this time, when I think of Dongfang Qiu's song, compared with the two, it is really a superior judgment, which really can't be faked at all!
When Su Yujing finished singing, there were colorful voices in the courtyard.
But when Yu Youwei finished singing the lyrics of this song, the audience was unusually quiet.
I didn't expect that the beautiful words could be sung so beautifully by the ancients, and they were so beautiful that they were beautiful to the point of the sound of nature.
Li Xingzhou raised his eyes and looked around the entire courtyard, and saw that everyone was intoxicated, so he let out a sigh of relief.
After this battle, and then do a good job of striking while the iron is hot, it should be expected to become famous.
After that, in Luoyang City, I finally had a place for me.
Another show began, and the courtyard was noisy. Yu Youwei's performance today is a great success, and she must take this opportunity to have more contact with these powerful people, so she can't leave for a while.
Li Xingzhou's purpose of coming here has been achieved, and he is too lazy to look for persimmons.
In addition, I was worried about Yu Youwei's performance today, and I didn't eat much well, and now I am indeed hungry. ”
Because of the extremely close distance, Li Xingzhou arrived at Dongfang Qiu's seat in two steps.
In a good mood, he was ready to move on to the next step.
The song "A Laugh in the Sea" is not enough to be famous all over the world.
But what if there is a stepping stone for the East?
So why not?
The footsteps stopped, and Li Xingzhou asked Dongfang with a smile in the surprised eyes of the audience.
"The sea laughed, and the tide on both sides of the strait! I wonder what Mr. Dongfang thinks the lyrics of the song that the fish girl sang just now? ”
Since the fishing Youwei finished singing, Dongfang Qiu's situation is like sitting on pins and needles.
If it weren't for the scruples of getting up and leaving, it really seemed too unelegant and too destructive, and he would have brushed his sleeves away.
