Chapter Ninety-Six: Spring and White Snow, Ambush on All Sides
Chen Bodhi watched the singing and dancing program prepared by the "Tang Women's Troupe". There are group performances, there are soloists, all very good. The Luqiu sisters' pas de deux is particularly outstanding. However, in terms of skills, the girl in purple was the most amazing thing for Chen Bodhi.
For Chen Bodhi, the girl in purple is the only familiar face among the eight people, and the "non-famous diplomatic incident" that shocked Chang'an some time ago happened in the red sleeves. There were many versions of the story that came out afterwards.
For example, "The story that has to be told between the prince of the Tang Dynasty and the Turkic prince", "The Red Sleeve Trick of the Chang'an War", "The Reverse Scale of the Cheng Brothers" and so on
The version is different, and the actor is different. But no matter who the male protagonist is, the heroine is destined to be a girl named Purple. is the so-called purple clothes beaten by iron, and the silk of flowing water.
Ziyi personally experienced the turmoil of the red sleeves, and it was also the source of the turmoil. After the incident, the purple classmate inevitably became famous. In addition, the appearance is really outstanding, and he has become a card character with red sleeves, and his fame has caught up with the four major Oiran of the previous session. And the market predicts that this year's Oiran selection will have a place for the girl in purple. Even Chang'an's gambling stalls have opened the handicap in advance.
It was for many reasons that Ziyi was temporarily joined by Chun Sanniang in the "Tang Women's Heavenly Troupe".
Chen Bodhi always thought that the purple clothes were just a little better-looking, and there was no lack of courage for the daughter of the Tang Dynasty at the critical moment. For example, the Red Sleeves of the day battle. The second child of the Cheng family, who just teased a few cruel words, was kicked in a circle by a large number of "foreign missions" in an instant after he was "firm" for less than a minute. And the girl in purple used her body to protect Cheng Lao Er at a critical moment. I took a lot of punches and kicks for this, but even then I didn't let go.
If it weren't for Chen Bodhi's timely rescue, it would have been possible for Ziyi to be killed like this. So Chen Bodhi still has a certain respect for this seemingly weak girl. He saw the instrument in Jinse's hand and didn't think much about it. But when Ziyi really plucked the strings, he taught Chen Bodhi a deep lesson. That is, the vase is also divided into grades, depending on the connotation.
Chen Bodhi's family education origins, especially traditional Chinese culture, are involved. Although he is not proficient in all kinds of calligraphy and painting, he is not lacking in appreciation.
Ziyi's talent is pipa music.
The pipa originated from the Qin Dynasty and is a long-handled belly-shaped instrument. According to the name of the playing technique, it is called "batch" when it pops up forward, and "put" when it is picked up backwards, so people call it "batch". Later, in order to unify the writing with the instruments of the time, such as the qin and the se, it was renamed the pipa.
When the pipa arrived in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, a pear-shaped speaker, curved neck, and four-stringed instrument came from the Western Regions, and some people combined it with the Chinese pipa to make a new style of pipa. In terms of playing method, the horizontal holding style was changed to the vertical holding type, and the plectrum plucking was changed to the right hand five-finger playing. After many improvements, it has become the two kinds of pipa that are now four-phase thirteen-fret and six-phase twenty-four-fret.
By the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there was a peak in the development of pipa. At that time, the pipa was indispensable for court bands and folk singing, and it became a very popular instrument at that time, and it was in a leading position in the orchestra.
Therefore, there are many people who can play the pipa, and there are many who can play well. However, there should be very few people who can play to the level of purple clothes, no matter what era they are placed in.
Ziyi played the famous song "Spring and White Snow" in pipa music.
"Yangchun White Snow" was written by the teacher Kuang of the "Le Sheng" Jin Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period. The allusion of Yangchun Baixue comes from the Warring States Chu Song Yu's "Ask the King of Chu": "The guest has a song in Yingzhong, and its beginning says: "Xiali" and "Ba people", and there are thousands of people in the country who belong to peace. β¦β¦ It is "Yang Chun" and "White Snow", and there are only dozens of people in the country. β
Roughly speaking, the king of Chu asked Song Yu:
"Can't you? Why doesn't everyone praise you? β
Song Yu said:
"You can't say that, I can sue you for slander without evidence."
The king of Chu stood up and said:
"Okay, no, don't BB!"
Song Yu looked back and said:
"I'll give you an example."
The king of Chu listened
"It's actually like singing, if I sing "The Most Dazzling National Style", as long as I have a mouth, most of them can hum a couple of sentences along with it. You might even be able to jump along for a while. But if I sing a ballad, like "Zebra" or something, there are fewer people who can hum. But if it's a tenor, open your mouth and sing "La BohΓ¨me" an octave higher. You show Lao Tzu how many more will !! β
The king of Chu replied:
"What do you mean?"
Song Yu replied:
"Lao Tzu means that the high and the low. An elegant person like Lao Tzu is not something you can understand! β
That's what Yangchun Baixue means, so "Yangchun Baixue" is a big song. There are high requirements for both the player and the audience, and the average person cannot play. There are hundreds of transformations of fingering alone, and there can be no omission in the process.
The purple clothes completely made Chen Bodhi feel what it means to be a master.
"The technique of the girl in purple is indeed extraordinary."
Chen Bodhi felt a little tired and tired today.
"Childe Miaozan, Ziyi can't afford it."
The girl in purple replied modestly.
"But there's a problem!"
"Childe, you're talking about the audience?"
Ziyi is not only modest, but also has a seven-pronged exquisite mind, which broke Chen Bodhi's worries in one word. The problem with Daya is that not everyone understands it. And this obviously deviates from Chen Bodhi's original intention.
However, Chen Bodhi thought of countermeasures when he was playing in purple clothes.
So, Chen Bodhi took the liberty of asking.
"I wonder if I can borrow the girl's pipa?"
Ziyi was stunned.
"Can't you?"
Chen Bodhi thought that Ziyi was unwilling.
"No, no, please!"
Chen Bodhi, who took the pipa, took a few deep breaths and reluctantly let himself enter an ethereal state. Then he gently plucked the strings with his hands.
"Oh, ......kick,
I played the tune in my head from memory. From "arranging the camp" to "lining up" to "ambushing", followed by "Wujiang self-killing", all the way to the final "victorious return to the camp". Thirteen sections of ambush on ten sides, the sections are wonderful, and they are exciting every time. It's impeached, but it's a joke. Although this purple dress may be the first time everyone has heard it, music is a common thing. Especially this kind of perfect music, if there is a slight flaw in the playing, it will be listened to by insiders. Fortunately, since the rebirth, this brain is much better than before. Therefore, it is quite perfect.
One song is finished.
Many girls with red sleeves, including purple clothes, were shocked.
Especially Chun Sanniang, the whole person is a little square. What kind of demon is this Chen Bodhi? When the others in the dry restaurant were still on the ground, they had already flown away from the Nine Heavens. Engage in singing and dancing, which idea is that a veteran of the Qinglou industry has never heard of it. But it just works. Today's pomp and circumstance is said to be for Chen Bodhi to visit, but it is better to say that it is to give Chen Bodhi a disguised dismount.
Tell him that the old lady is the professional!
But the foreshadowing was done, and the result was perfect, and in the end, it was given a backhand. The strength of Ziyi, Sanniang is the clearest. But what is this?
Defeated!
This loser, at a young age, is more reckless than the old ghosts in Fengyue Field, and Sanniang has an urge to kill.
What song did Childe play?
It was not the purple clothes who asked, but the red clothes of Luqiu, who were infected by the music. There was a flush on the small face. In addition to Su Jin, the other girls also had such expressions.
He is handsome, golden, and talented, and I heard that he can beat people!
Such a teenager, please give me a dozen!
