Chapter Fifty-Nine: A New Song, a Drink
Need to get Yang Shen's attention?
This is a problem.
Sun Dan's heart was shocked, but he was a little undecided.
The three great talents of the Ming Dynasty: Xie Jin, Yang Shen, and Xu Wei.
Among them, Xie Jin and Xu Wenchang are well-known figures in later generations, but Yang Shen is unknown. For a long time, it was overshadowed by the light of these two.
But Sun Dan knew that when it came to cultural achievements, Yang Shen was not inferior to these two, and even vaguely higher. "History of the Ming Dynasty" has a saying: The Ming Dynasty memorized the breadth, the richness of the writings, and prudence was the first.
The 81 volumes of the Sheng'an Collection are a mountain that every scholar who studies the history, literature, exegesis, rhyme, and famous objects of the Ming Dynasty cannot bypass.
Later generations may not know who Yang Shen is, but the "Linjiang Immortal" he wrote, the sentence "Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water, Waves Sweeping Away Heroes, Success or Failure Turn Empty, Green Mountains Are Still Around, Several Sunsets Red ......" is a swan song known to women and children for the ages, and has even become the theme song of the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
In Sun Dan's mind, this is a cultural giant.
As a modern man, he does not worship idols, but that does not mean that he does not respect idols. Whether it is in terms of academic achievements or personal charm, Sun Dan has to admit that Yang Shen was the cultural standard-bearer in the early years of Jiajing and the landmark building of scholars.
Sun Dan naturally had a hundred ways to attract Yang Shen's attention, but there was a problem here.
Wait another year, once Jiajing ascends the throne, the Yang family will lose power, not only Yang Tinghe will be dismissed, but even Yang Shen will be exiled to the kind of smoke barrier in Yunnan, and he will not be able to recover for the rest of his life. If you go to burn his hot stove now, I am afraid that it will cause the emperor's displeasure in the future, and it will also have a great impact on your career.
However, Sun Dan thought about it, if he could successfully make friends with Yang Shen, he could also gain a great reputation among scholars. Although it may cause the emperor to be unhappy in the future, the Ming Dynasty was governed by the emperor and the bureaucracy, and the monarchy had not yet swelled to the point where it could decide everything, as in the Qing Dynasty, and in many cases it was subject to strong constraints from the civilian bureaucracy.
If he can make friends with Yang Shen, he can be accepted by the civil official group smoothly, which will be of great benefit to him in the future. As for the emperor, Sun Dan smiled bitterly. He hasn't even passed the exam yet, what else is Jane in the emperor's heart, and what is he talking about figuring out his intentions?
Moreover, the Sun family was originally dependent on Yang Tinghe, and since the day Sun Dan entered the Sun family to study, he has attached the word "Yang Dang" on his forehead. In the future, he will be promoted, promoted as a scholar, and become an official, and he will also be a Yang official in the emperor's mind. If you want to make a difference, you have to keep up with the interest group headed by Yang Tinghe, at least in the early days of Jiajing.
In order to be famous, no matter in any era, if you want to make a difference, you must have ambitions at a young age.
Sun Dan sat on the side of the ship and made a decision in just a moment.
As soon as he inhaled, he continued to sing as he read the audio file: "My body is light and the road is far away, and my heart is busy and I am afraid that people will be surprised." I was so frightened that my soul disappeared, my soul disappeared, and I was young in the red dust. ”
As soon as the song was sung, Sun Dan himself blushed first. He was already a little incomplete in the five tones, and he was learning according to the audio file according to the gourd painting, and as soon as he said it, it was really earth-shattering. For a while, everyone on the ship looked sideways, and their faces changed dramatically.
That Jiang Ruoying was already holding her stomach and laughing on the ground: "Giggles, Brother Dan sings this song...... Giggles, just like the night owl in the three watches, but it scares out people's souls. ”
And the cloth official stomped his feet, stretched out two fingers to block his ears, and couldn't help but be angry: "It's hard to hear to death, shut up, people don't listen, people don't listen." ”
Now that he has spoken, Sun Dan can't care so much, and then sings: "I really expect Feng Hou to be a traitorous red scarf and a backstabbing yellow nest." It is just like a goshawk that has taken off the basket, a cunning rabbit from the cage, and a net to take off the dragon. Who will be punished for saving the country? It is rare to be punished. ”
This passage is the lyrics of Peking Opera in the later Republic of China, not Yang Shen's original.
It is undeniable that there are still many lyrics in the Republic of China and modern times, such as Wang Zengqi, who wrote model plays, and his lyrics are not much inferior to ancient masters.
As for the passage that Sun Dan sang just now, the original author is no longer verifiable. But no matter what, the lyrics of "Lin Chong Running at Night", from Yang Shen to Li Kaixian's end, have gone through 500 years, and I don't know how many famous artists have polished, deleted, and scrutinized. At this point, it is too much to add one word and subtract one word too little.
At the beginning, when they heard Sun Dan's strange tone, everyone was still laughing. But after listening to it for a long time, the ridicule on everyone's faces stopped, and gradually became solemn. Especially Na Buguan, who is the owner of the opera troupe, has been immersed in this industry all his life, how can he not hear the mystery.
He put down the fingers that were blocking his ears, waited for Sun Dan to finish singing this sentence, took a deep breath, and said in surprise: "Good words!" ”
"Good words indeed." Yang Shen, who was in the cabin, suddenly shouted: "I just wrote this paragraph, because of the exhaustion of literary thoughts, I can't continue, I can't imagine that you, a little fellow from Sichuan, can take it in such a short time, and you are really angry." It's a pity that you can't make a voice, so you can sing it with someone else. Cloth official, you come. ”
"Yes." The cloth official was about to sing.
Jiang Ruoying, who was sitting next to Sun Dan, suddenly opened her mouth and took the next sentence.
The sound was as clear as a bubbling mountain spring, without the slightest impurity.
Sun Dan was taken aback, he never expected that Jiang Ruoying's voice would be like this. This voice, if placed in the future generations, will definitely be able to enter a professional troupe.
This sound happened to be in the place where Xiao Tsing Yi couldn't sing, and it was still very low at the beginning. But gradually, the tone rose higher and higher, until at last it seemed to fly out of the high clouds, stirring up the dark clouds in the sky, and turning into goose feathers and snow, echoing in the fierce and desolate forage field of the army.
And in that snow-white, Lin Chong carried a spear on his shoulder, staggering step by step, and was staggering.
At the end of the song, the echo rippled on the surface of the lake, lingering for a long time.
There was silence on the deck, no one spoke, and everyone looked at Jiang Ruoying fixedly. Especially the boss named Buguan looked at it with bright eyes, but unfortunately, he had a humble status, but he didn't dare to approach these four scholars.
"Good voice." Sun Dan applauded and laughed.
At this time, everyone came back to their senses and said, "Absolutely." ”
Jiang Ruoying's face was slightly red: "I used to invite a troupe in Suzhou's house, I heard this, and I also learned a few words. ”
"Good voice, good words, good mood." The figure in the cabin flickered, and a tall and handsome middle-aged man walked out, holding a pot of fine wine in his hand, and laughed: "I didn't expect that the Sun family also has such a good talent, and this good song has compared me to me." ”
He walked up to Sun Dan, lifted the tin pot and took a sip, shook his hand and threw it over: "A glass of wine with a new song, a young boy, you can also take a sip." ”
Sun Dan raised his hand to take the wine jug, and also took a big sip: "Good wine, singing to get drunk and masturbate, dancing and setting for glory, thank you." He smiled secretly in his heart: "Master Xiao Yang, you were finally lured out by me." You can't live without hobbies, as long as you want hobbies, I have a way to deal with you.
I can't see that Yang Shen, who is talented and elegant, is a bold and open person, he wears a pair of clogs on his feet, and his clothes are not very neat.
snatched the wine from Sun Dan's hand, and smiled loudly: "Sun family boy, this pot of wine is worth one or two silver, but it can't cheapen you for nothing." This sentence just now is good, if you really have the ability, in a pot of tea to complete this for me, this pot of wine will belong to you. ”
Sun Dan said secretly, Hugh said that when it was time for a pot of tea, you asked me to make up for it for you within two minutes.
He deliberately smiled: "I have a habit of making lyrics, I like to write lyrics while drinking, and I have no inspiration if I don't drink." ”
"Hehe, you're not going to be tricking me to drink, and then it's up to you how you end." As soon as Yang Shen slapped his face, two of his attendants carried out a small table, and placed it on the four treasures of the study.
Yang Shen pointed to the coffee table: "Sun family boy, it's up to you." ”
Sun smiled lightly, took a sip of wine, and wrote: "With the snow blade knife in your arms, take a step and cry, cry, and hurry to go to Lu Yao." ”
Yang Shen looked Sun Dan up and down with a "uh" sound: "Good hand clock Wang Xiaokai, a good sentence to go to Lu Yao in a hurry, Lin Chong's hesitation is not calculated to let you write alive." The cloth official will play your lute, who is it? He pointed at Jiang Ruoying: "You keep singing." ”
The Zheng Zheng pipa sounded, and Jiang Ruoying's high-pitched and clear singing voice also sounded.
In this way, Sun Dan took a sip of wine and wrote a sentence, while Jiang Ruoying sang a sentence until Sun Dan put the last sentence "Running around the wilderness overnight, and earning a broken life." Go to Liangshan to borrow soldiers. "After writing it, it can be regarded as a corner of this famous sentence for the ages.
Yang Shen's pot of fine wine is a rare distilled liquor, the degree is not low, and when Sun Dan finished writing this, he was a little drunk.
Yang Shen snatched the piece of paper full of ink words and looked at it, and laughed: "Okay, good, so far, this place is finally done." Cloth officer. ”
"I'm here."
"Put it away, sing it well, and make you popular all over Beijing."
"Thanks to your old man's blessing, it's hard for the cloth official not to be popular."
"Haha, you're always so sweet."
Everyone laughed.
At this time, the painting boat had just turned around a lake blade, and the eyes were bright, but in front of it was a large boat with bright lights.
Probably the laughter of the crowd attracted the attention of the people on the boat, and someone shouted: "But the Zhanjia class? ”
"Exactly, people are cloth officials, and you are from the Dewang Mansion?" The cloth official replied coquettishly.
"We belong to the royal palace, and we have been waiting for you for a long time."
Sun Dan was shocked in his heart, it was actually the ship of King De's Mansion. Both Mr. Li and Sun Yue should be on it, but they can't be seen.
He hurriedly said, "Sir, can we hide in your cabin?" ”
