Part 1 Gorgeous Prelude Chapter 1083 The Lost Civilization
Zhao Xing looked at the officials of the Shu Party and the Luo Party who were standing on both sides of the stage, and let out a soft sigh. UC eBook () full text free to read!
Today's West Garden rally is a performance, for which Zhao Xing carefully planned for more than 20 days, and after repeated on-site rehearsals, the first program of this costume performance caters to the taste of Lu Dafang ---- the hometown drinking ceremony. With the sound of silk and bamboo, a group of widows with fake beards stepped forward in pairs, imitating the politeness of the old man in the countryside.
The whole resignation process is a process of asking each other about their ages, asking about their family history, and sorting them according to their seniority, the oldest of them is given to the first seat, and the rest are seated in order of age. The movements of the widows are strictly in accordance with the Zhou ritual account, and their every move shows the harmony of the villagers.
This is followed by the "passing of wine", which is played by local officials ---- the Wa Emperor---- who holds a glass of wine, starting from the first seat, and then passing it down in turn, and each time he comes to a person, there must be a blessing......
The atmosphere was solemn, Zhao Xing stood at the foot of the stage to command the actors, and heard someone behind him talking in a low voice: "This township drinking ceremony is still recorded in the Han Dynasty, for example, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, once invited the township elders to hold a township drinking ceremony---- and made "Song of the Great Wind" on the banquet......
After the Han Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty began, and this ceremony declined, but Taizong of the Tang Dynasty also held a village drinking ceremony...... This dynasty is the first to advocate the township drinking ceremony, or the credit of my Luo faction ---- Guanzhong science......"
The person who spoke did not know who it was. But in the end, Qin Guan heard a "hum", and Zhao Xingtou didn't speak back: "Today's performance is Zhou Li, and the teaching on stage is gentle and peaceful, who dares to be noisy and restless at this time, believe it or not, I beat him with a peach blossom on his face!" ”
Zhao Xing's words were actually aimed at Qin Guan, Qin Guan heard his anger, and felt that what he had just done was inappropriate, so he didn't say anything. But the person who was talking quietly just now didn't know what to do, and let out a heavy "hum". to show contempt. To this "hum", Zhao Xing's answer was to slowly raise the cane knife in his hand.
Today, when the disciples of Sumen come to the land. They all neatly put on the "Beizhong (Tang) armor", looking heroic---- because they would have to cooperate with the Japanese people to perform the archery later. And Zhao Xing is especially well-equipped, his knife raising, giving people the feeling of an angry bull, although he didn't turn around, the people behind him have already sensed Zhao Xing's seriousness, and his feet have begun to move secretly.
"The audience is noisy!" Lu Dafang on the stage saw that the momentum was wrong. Shout. He stared deeply at Zhao Xing, who shrugged his shoulders and put down his hand holding the cane knife indifferently---- from beginning to end, his cane knife was not unsheathed, so it looked like waving a wooden stick and shouting.
Among the disciples of Sumen, Qin Guan likes to cause trouble the most, but he knows Zhao Xing best, and knows that once the other party is angry, he has no scruples and no one can persuade him. This thing was not done right in the first place, and it would not be beneficial to his reputation to make a big fuss, so he quietly moved a few steps under his feet. Start concentrating on the show. He was quiet, among the disciples of Su Men, no one else jumped out like Qin Guan, Su Shi nodded lightly at the scene on the stage, and did not come forward.
After the dispute subsided, Lu Dafang on the stage felt very faceless, and he slowly shook his head. He said to himself to the others on the stage: "Zhou Li is not here---- people are performing the village drinking ceremony, and there is a noise in the audience, isn't it a joke for the Japanese people." ”
Wen Yanbo is one of the famous "Three Gentlemen" in ancient China, and he is known as the "Three Sages of Jiexiu" together with the ancients Guo Youdao and Jiezhitui. It is said that when he was young, Wen Yanbo was for self-cultivation. Two jars were prepared. If you do a good deed, put a red bean in one jar, and if you do a bad deed, put a black bean in the other. He checked the number of red beans and black beans every day, and over time, the number of red beans increased......
The gentleman is not easy to open his mouth to blame, this gentleman is still the first person to advocate the return of the territory to Western Xia---- he is willing to give up the national territory, what else can make him excited? So in response to Lu Dafang's complaints, he shook his head lightly and signaled the latter to stop dwelling on this topic and continue to watch the show.
The village drinking ceremony is over, followed by the shooting salute. The Korean and the Wa, the Yue and the Sumen disciples took turns to play in pairs, two by two, to show the ancient Chinese archery to the Chinese Song people---- which seems a bit ridiculous, but when you think about it deeply, there is only sadness.
After the salute is over, the ceremony of reconciliation begins. On stage, the Chinese food inherited from the Goryeo and Wa kingdoms is performed. On the venue, the Goryeo people began to barbecue with a charcoal stove, and a group of Goryeo dancers accompanied by various musical instruments, including the famous thirteen-stringed zheng--- of the Tang Dynasty, played the music of Bohai music, or music. This thirteen-stringed koto is now called "Japanese koto". The technique of Korean barbecue is "roasted pork", which is called "Korean barbecue" in modern China.
At the same time, a group of Japanese people also walked up to the stage with tables, and their plates were filled with sweetfish and carp, as well as the most famous delicacy of the Jin Dynasty---- sea bass, which modern China calls "Japanese sashimi" or "Japanese sashimi".
The Goryeo and Japanese people reproduced the scene of the ancient banquet site, and the Goryeo dancer wore the skirt of the women of the Han Dynasty, which is called "Korean costume" in modern times, with a high waist, tie, and a fat skirt robe, and its pattern can only be seen in the murals of ancient tombs in modern China; The men of the Japanese people wore the deep skirts worn by the people of the Jin Dynasty, and the women wore the Tang style "twelve singles", which is called "kimono" in modern times.
The feet of the people of the two countries are clogs, the history records: in the Jin Dynasty, Xie An heard the news of the victory in the battle of Huangshui, and excitedly broke the wooden teeth on the clogs on the threshold---- Xie An wore the kind of clogs, modern China called "Japanese clogs", or "and clogs".
The two countries performed a toast in the Han and Tang dynasties at the banquet, one person drank to the heart's content, and the Japanese danced and invited their companions to dance---- "Three Kingdoms" recorded that Tao Qian also invited people to dance at the banquet. This shows that in the Three Kingdoms period, this kind of dance etiquette still existed in China, but in the Song Dynasty, even the erudite Su Shi did not know about the existence of this dance.
The Japanese called this dance "Han Dance" during the Song Dynasty. The Chinese call it "Japanese Noh Dance" in modern times; The accompaniment is Tang music, which was called "music" in Japan at that time, Bohai music, and Tang music, but in modern times we call it "Japanese Noh music"; The music of the Tang Dynasty displayed by the dancing queen was extinct in the Song Dynasty at that time, and in modern China it is called the "Japanese Kaki Dance".
The Japanese were dancing, and the Koreans were performing Tang hands---- which is what is called "taekwondo" in modern times---- and they sang in unison: "You ask me about my customs, my customs are the purest; The well-dressed Tang system, the courtesy of the Han monarchs and ministers ......"
Fortunately, the Song Dynasty did not have the rebuke of "Hari, Hari". Therefore, the princes of the government hall watched with an attitude of appreciation and admiration. They were conquered by their own civilization, and even the ministers under the stage were so addicted to it that they forgot about the battle for a while.
The Goryeo Wa people retreated, followed by the Vietnamese, the Vietnamese display is architectural art, the county prince Li Yuan specially came from Vietnam, with a group of skilled craftsmen. What is presented to people is stacks of architectural drawings, and the carved beams and columns are exquisite......
However, he showed the art of architecture in the Song Dynasty, which seems to be a little early. It was only after the Mongol invasion that China lost the technology to build large buildings. However, Li Yuan's demonstration of this technique was specially arranged by Zhao Xing, and after listing the lost cultures, Zhao Xing asked the Vietnamese to present the architectural techniques of the Han and Tang dynasties, which must be said to be a metaphor.
It's a pity that this kind of metaphor can't be understood by people on stage. Instead, Lu Dafang found an opportunity to attack. He complained to Su Dongpo dissatisfiedly: "What did you do with this apprentice, what are you doing with the Jiaozhi people presenting a bunch of nonsense---- Jinmingchi is still open, ask your apprentice to lead this group of Jiaozhi people around Jinmingchi, and see that they are embarrassed to come here to show off...... This kind of technology, I'm embarrassed to show my hands. ”
The Vietnamese craftsman retreated without a word. Then came the Vietnamese kabuki team...... First up was a pair of 40 people, armed with two canes and drums hanging from their waists, dancing and beating the waist drums as they went. The voice is simple and cold, like the old man of history gradually walking, awakening the awe hidden in the genes of everyone.
On the stage, Su Shi introduced very eruditely: "This is cane drum music." Today's drumming is often just beating, and it is rarely solo. On the other hand, the ancient song drumming uses sticks at both ends, and only the sound of the drum is used to express the meaning of the music. It is called the rod drum music. This music still exists in the Tang Dynasty. It is rumored that "King Qin Breaks the Array" is the last cane drum music, and many people don't hear it today. This piece ......"
When Su Shi said this, he called Zhao Xing and asked: "This music is even simple, it must be an ancient relic, and it is a relic of ancient times, why is it fun?" ”
Zhao Xing's face was full of sadness that bordered on despair, and he replied in a depressed and low voice: "Teacher, this ...... It's ...... "Yellow Emperor Yan". ”
"Boom" The seats on the stage fell down, and even the eldest Lu Gongshu stood up and asked in surprise: "Is it "Yellow Emperor Yan"?" Are you sure? "Inflammation" is a type of tune, or "salt". Tang songs include "Turkic Salt" and "A Que Salt". Therefore, the cane drum music is also called the fire cane and the salt cane.
It is said that the origin of "Yellow Emperor Yan" is longer than the oracle bone inscription, it is rumored that it originated in ancient times, is the Yan and Huang people praise their ancestors of the initial sound of the nation, Hongmeng era, our primitive ancestors purely use the drum, beat out their reverence for the ancestors of the nation, this sound through the thousand years of the sky, recorded the history of the origin of our nation...... But now, even the most knowledgeable Su Shi doesn't know this "initial tone of the nation".
What kind of sorrow could be more desperate for a people!
Our nation is the best at eulogizing, and even the earthquake victims must be eulogized as "even if you are a ghost, you are also happy!" But even the "Yellow Emperor Yan", which praises the origin of the Yanhuang nation, was lost......
At this time, the Vietnamese began to sing, and they sang along the drums:
"Take the twelve states of Shanxi first,
Others will be beaten to the head.
Looking back at Qin Sai as low as a horse,
Gradually, the Yellow River flows straight north. ”
and sang "Heaven and earth across the Yellow River,
Thousands of miles of Hu people are full of Han songs.
Mo Kan crosses the mountains and rivers,
and went from the west of the church to be Enbo. ”
Sing again "The horsetail huqin follows the Han car,
The song is still self-complaining.
Bend the bow and shoot the geese in the clouds,
Gui Yan doesn't remember books now......"
Su Shi still muttered to himself on stage: "This is the old song of "Zhezhi", the Han Dynasty tasted the Yongliang military song, and the Tang Dynasty used the drum as the sound to dub it, so it is called "Drum Record", the song name is "Hun Liberation Solution", and there are still singers in the Qinliang area ......
Lu Gong pointed to the group of Vietnamese. The voice trembled: "Stay, leave them down, let them leave the song and leave...... "Yellow Emperor Yan"!" Towering my emperor, great martial arts, the old minister can hear this sound again today, woo woo woo ......"
Wen Yanbo was also excited, but he could still hold on and persuade: "Gong Lu, they can't leave now, it's better to listen quietly." Let's see what else they have to do, and we'll come back to them together! ”
The next place to play is the cane drum music "Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly", Bai Juyi's "Mother and Son" and so on. The people on the stage listened more attentively, and Zhao Xing was only sad in his heart.
Is it useful to leave this group of Vietnamese behind?
In fact, in normal history, "Yellow Emperor Yan" will also be transmitted back to the Central Plains at this time---- Vietnam in order to thank the Song Dynasty for giving back their territory, specially sent envoys to the Great Song Dynasty to meet them, and the envoys carried the trick class brought by Li Yuan, so. "Yellow Emperor Yan" returns to China...... But it didn't work--- another change of dynasty came, and from then on, we will never lose "Yellow Emperor Yan".
After the drumming stopped, some Vietnamese stepped off the stage and brought a bigger drum, and the few Vietnamese who remained on the stage continued to sing: "Jun asks my customs, my customs are the purest; The well-dressed Tang system, the courtesy of the Han monarchs and ministers ......"
During the singing, Li Yuan personally took the drumstick on the stage, and a group of Yue Lingting followed. With Li Yuan's several drums, they sang beautifully in the sound of drums and sandalwood, and the lyrics they sang were Bai Juyidi's "Pipa Song" and Li Bai's "Swordsman's Walk......
This singing method is called "Tao Niang Song" in modern times, and UNESCO has rated it as a "World Cultural Heritage" in Vietnam, a living fossil of ancient Chinese song music, and the quintessence of Vietnam. And the "Tao Niang" mentioned here is a Song Singer in the early Song Dynasty, she and the male actor Liao Shouzhong were hired to Vietnam successively, singing in the Vietnamese court, and since then the original version of the "Sui and Tang Yuefu Ci" singing skills have been brought into Vietnam.
Therefore, "Tao Niang Song" is also known as "Song Song" in Vietnam. A more rigorous translation is: "Sui and Tang Yuefu Ci...... But now it is called "Vietnamese Song Chip Art", "Tao Niang Song". In modern times, Chinese people who want to hear the original "Pipa Song" by the Chinese Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi, Li Baidi's "Swordsman Xing" and Tang Le's "Zhuang Zhou Mengdie" must go to Vietnam, because it is the essence of Vietnam.
Li Yuan's method of beating the drum on the stage is called "Chao Drum". During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the drummers at the banquet were called "officials", and it may be that the work itself was undertaken by the officials. The Vietnamese continue to use this designation. The drumming officer was also known as the "outsider." He is not only an "outsider" who appreciates and evaluates the art of singing and piano, but also an "insider" in many cases. Sometimes he even used drums to criticize Tao Niang on the spot. Therefore, when the Sui and Tang dynasties sang Yuefuci, the role of the drummer was the most important, and before the Tang Dynasty banquet, the artists often asked each other which official was the drummer while preparing to sing.
In the sound of sandalwood drums, the song rhymes slowly. The audience was shocked by the centuries-old song, and they exchanged heads and whispered about it. Zhao Xing couldn't help but feel sad in his heart...... The cultures shown above will eventually say goodbye to the yellow, and in this turbulent wave, will individual efforts be useful?
The saddest thing in the world is that perhaps we have to sing the praises of the loss of this civilization......
The show on stage did not stop at Zhao Xing's sorrow, and Li Yuan showed the brocade craft next.
There is an important figure in the history of Chinese textiles named Huang Daopo, she is a native of Hainan, about two hundred years later, she will introduce advanced Indian textile technology to the Central Plains, and her technical origin---- Hainan "Li Jin" has been preserving its set of Song Dynasty craftsmanship to modern times, becoming a kind of expensive fossil treasure. It is said that the textile technology brought by Huang Daopo was brought to Hainan Island by immigrants from Vietnam, across the sea.
The silk displayed on the stage is like clouds, which modern Vietnamese call "Tang brocade" in murmur, and Chinese call it "Vietnamese silk".
Li Yuan showed the Vietnamese silk this time is exactly the same as the pattern worn by the Tang Dynasty lady in the "Hairpin Lady", this kind of silk faintly reflects layers of scales, like luminous brocade, and puts on a layer of implicit coat on the gorgeous and splendid exterior, which is graceful and luxurious and revealing unobtrusive humility, which is suitable for the princes on the stage who are humble with gentlemen.
"Tang Jin? Is this Tang Jin? Wen Yanbo was stunned: "I didn't expect the Tang people to be able to weave the sky and the colorful glow...... Tell your disciple about it, let the Jiaozhi people leave the weaving method ---- make it inside, and let the palace Ouchi come forward to build a weaving workshop. Zizhan, Tang Jin, I wait for Tang Jin to reappear in this life, and I am worthy of my ancestors! ”
Lu Gongzhu touched his beard and said, "The old man is old." Dying to death---- let me come to this matter, if I can restore Tang Jin, archery, and Tang music before I die, and then listen to "Yellow Emperor Yan" and "Pipa Xing...... This is my life's will, the dynasty is a book, and it is enough to die at night! ”
What did Lu Gong say? He said that the highest ideal of a scholar ---- to leave a name in history. If you do this, you will be able to leave a name in history.
Therefore, the question now is not whether it is appropriate to restore Zhou Lihe, but who will do it!
The princes on the stage suddenly had their own ideas and discussed in a low voice. Zhao Xing continued to direct the "actors" to take turns off the stage.
The venue for the performance is a vacant lot specially leveled by Zhao Xing in the courtyard of Xiao Wang's horse and Wang Xu. A one-inch-high wooden platform was erected where several prime ministers sat in the government hall, that is, a layer of wooden planks was laid. Several officials sat on the wooden platform and watched. Other chairs were scattered among the turquoise, and they stood and sat in a relaxed manner.
After the excitement just subsided, the atmosphere returned to calm, and everyone's attention was all on watching the show, Zhao Xing heard no movement behind him, and muttered in his heart: "That's right." Watching a performance and arguing, what's wrong with this person? Even when it comes to entertainment, I don't forget to fight. ”
This performance was carefully rehearsed by Zhao Xing, and the guests of the Three Kingdoms also performed hard in order to show their culture, striving for perfection in every detail, in order to reflect their own Chinese heritage. The gorgeous costumes, the careful plot arrangement, and the decent performances, even Zhao Xing, who is in charge of all this, has seen it many times, and at this moment, he can't help but be overwhelmed by their performances.
This is culture, the culture created by the Chinese nation itself. This culture is hidden in the genes of every Yanhuang person. In the vein, now, it is being awakened.
What is civilization, civilization is cultural etiquette, and the nation that understands etiquette is a "civilized race" and has lost its etiquette......
After Yashan, do we still have Yanhuang etiquette?
At this moment, Zhao Xing's heart suddenly remembered that the Israeli song ----" was on the banks of the Babylon River.
We sat down and thought of her,
I can't stop crying when I think of her, ah Zion......"
The Israelites lost Zion. They also have the right to cry. They can cry out loud! But we ......
What kind of sorrow is more dignified than this?!
Zhao Xing just wanted to cry bitterly in this era of being qualified to suffer, and he wanted to shout: "My husband and my mother." My clan and my clan, what have you lost? ”
Zhao Xing, a modern person, was moved by the full set of ancient ceremonies, not to mention the Song people present. After a while, they also fell down, poured under the splendor created by their own ancestors.
The whispering praise is getting stronger and stronger, but life has to go on, Zhao Xing turned his gaze to Li Gonglin and Mi Fu as if he had not heard of it, and the two people were waiting for the new batch of widows, writing hard, depicting the scene of the scene.
It's a grand occasion that deserves to be written in a lot of color.
Li Gonglin, Mi Fu brushstrokes have been completely different from the original "West Garden Elegant Collection Map", the painting means of the two reproduce the luxury of the Tang Dynasty, a branch and a leaf in the West Garden, a pine and a stone in their pen are depicted like a fairyland on earth, the horse Wang Shu stands behind the two people, satisfied with the straight touch of the beard, after this assembly, he Wang Shu and his garden, will be passed down through the ages.
Zhao Xing slowly paced behind Li Gonglin, looked at the soon-to-be-completed "West Garden Elegant Collection" with an excited expression, and shouted over and over again in his heart: "I'm here, I saw it---- I love this one to death."
Anyone who hears him will be shocked because he uses too many modern words......
This is Zhao Xing, a person who should not appear in this era.
Li Gonglin had already begun to polish the flaws on the map, and Zhao Xing couldn't help but stretch out his hand and shouted: "Mine, all mine, no one is allowed to fight with me?" ”
Wang Xu glanced at Zhao Xing, who was red-faced, with disdain, and said proudly: "My garden, of course this thing belongs to me, without my orders, see who dares to allow a piece of paper to flow out of the West Garden." ”
Zhao Xing was originally very respectful to Wang Xu, the other party helped him solve the trouble of the balsam factory, he owed the other party a favor, but at this moment, he couldn't help but be polite, because "West Garden Elegant Collection" is a Japanese national treasure worth billions of dollars: "Little Wang Concubine, I don't know if my teacher told you, once I am in a hurry, I like to solve problems with my fists......"
Zhao Xing looked Wang Xu's figure up and down, and his mouth snorted: "Alas, you still want to rob me with your small body...... Well, you'll need to call dozens of yards as helpers. ”
