When he stepped on the small boat that was a little shaky, Confucius was so tall that he almost didn't stand firmly, but Zigong helped him by his side.

"Master, be careful, be careful......" Duanmu Ci seemed to have something in his words, and he seemed to mean something, and he didn't know whether to let Kong Qiu be careful of Zhao Wuxian, or be careful of Sanhuan behind him.

Zigong had the ambition to be a pedestrian, but Kong Qiu was not sure whether he was a messenger of peace or a scout who declared war. Zilu was not worried about the division commander, and he followed the same steps behind him, and Sanhuan was even more worried about Kong Qiu's decision alone, so he also sent someone to follow him on the boat.

The man was young, in his early twenties, and he was Ji Sunsi's eldest son, Ji Sunfei, but he did not have the timidity of his father, but held his head high, and he was quite humble and not arrogant. Although, I don't like this son Ji Sunsi, and the Lu people have rumored that if he can still give birth to a son, the position of the head of the family will definitely not be Ji Sunfei.

Perhaps Zhao Wuxian had instructed them first, but Zigong did not stop them, and took them onto the boat and boarded the middle wing moored in the slowly flowing water.

The ship's name was "Jiqing", and it was used for warfare, and although the shell was painted, you can still see the traces left by arrows and swords. After boarding the ship, Kongqiu found that the decoration on it was simple, although there were not many elite soldiers standing on the surface, but anyone could see that the curtain and the cabin were probably full of armor.

Zhao Wuxian acted cautiously, which was the consensus of the Lu people.

The place of the banquet was on the spacious deck, and the voice of the person was heard before he was seen.

Melodious and melodious, a song "Sao Feng. "There Are Bitter Leaves" was played in a serene voice, attracting everyone's attention.

"There are bitter leaves, and there are deep involvements. Deep is powerful. Shallow is revealed......

Recruit boats, people are involved. People are involved. I have to be my friend. ”

Kong Qiu has heard this ballad countless times and played it countless times. But here, on the battleship on the Jishui River, in the place where the two armies are facing each other and the battle is about to break out, it always feels a little strange to listen to it.

The sound is a little rusty, the five notes are slightly off the key, you can hear it, and the level of the player is average.

When the last tune of "There Are Bitter Leaves" slowly faded, the high-crowned young man took his eyes off the ser in his hand, got up and saluted Kongqiu.

"Playing in front of the Master. Makes you laugh. ”

I haven't seen him for months, and Zhao Wuxian's appearance hasn't changed much: his slender limbs, broad shoulders, silky and straight charcoal black hair, eyes that are deeper than the night, and even that shallow smile is no different from the past. The slender crown of the crane on his forehead was a perfect match for him, made of soft gold, and the tail of the crane was delicately set on it.

But that bearing and tone are more and more similar to that of his father Zhao Ying. That tiger-like Jin Qing now has a son who is like a tiger and a dragon.

Kong Qiu also greeted Zhao Wuxian, and after sitting down on the seat, he asked, "I don't know if Xiao Sikou invited the old man to board the boat." What is it to say? ”

Zhao Wuxian's attitude was modest, but the words he said were incredibly arrogant: "Without him, it's just that the three secretaries of Lu Guo on the shore are all crumbs. It is not worth it for me to invite them aboard, only the Master. to be qualified to listen to my strings. ”

"Little Sikou, how dare you say that?" Ji Sunfei listened to Zhao Wuxian's words full of Sanhuan. 's disdain for Ji Sunsi was suddenly angry.

"Who is this?" Zhao Wuxian glanced at him.

Zigong introduced: "This is the eldest son of the Ji family, the word Zihuan. ”

Zhao Wuxian also dismissed: "The eldest son? So you're not the son of the Ji family? In this case, you can just watch and listen to the conversation between the two doctors today, and there is no part for you to speak here! ”

……

Zhao Wuxian didn't say anything, and ignored Ji Sunfei, who was choked back to his throat by his hard words, and looked at Kong Qiu again.

"In my early years in the Jin Kingdom, I studied poetry, etiquette and music with the musician Gao, but unfortunately I was still young, stubborn and dull at that time, and I could not understand the true meaning of the teacher's etiquette and music, and even the skills were unfamiliar for a long time. Accustomed to holding the sword of the hand and then touching the qin, it is as difficult as stiff wood, no wonder Zi Hui (Zeng Dian) has always wanted to stay away from mundane affairs, only the ethereal and free heart, can play a beautiful tune, the ethereal sound in the bamboo forest, I have always wanted to listen to it again. But Zi Yan said that the master is the most proficient person in the whole world, better than his countless ......"

Ji Sunfei was robbed of Bai by Zhao Wuxian, but he was indeed not the protagonist today, so he looked at Confucius and signaled him to negotiate with Zhao Wuxian as soon as possible, and not to talk about such useless nonsense.

But Kong Qiu didn't seem to see his eyes, and he actually started chatting with Zhao Wuxian's words.

"Good, has the little priest also begun to pay attention to etiquette? Changing customs is not good at fun, and governing the people in peace is not good at courtesy. But there is one sentence you are wrong, although I am proficient in playing the piano, drums, playing the sheng, and hitting the chime, I am not the best at music theory and musical skills. ”

"Isn't it? Since the period of Shi Kuang, Boya, and Zhong Zi, Lu Guoshi Xiang is the best at playing music, and he is the teacher. I heard that Shi Xiang once performed a song "Wen Wang Cao" because of his master's study for several months, and the essence and subtlety of the meaning were deified, so Shi Xiangzi admired it and avoided the table. The Master not only gets his songs, but also gets his numbers, his meanings, his people, and his kinds, which shows that he understands the depth of happiness, isn't he the person who is the best at music? ”

Kong Qiu said: "From the music, I can understand the will of King Wen, and this matter can not be repeated. When it comes to music theory, Dr. Chang Hong, who is still in charge of music in the Zhou royal family, is the most proficient, and as for musical skills, he is still the best unknown musician I met when I was in Qi State. ”

He closed his eyes and recalled the wonderful sound he heard at that time: "I listened to him play the music of 'Shao' from afar, and the beauty reached such a charming point that I was intoxicated for a long time, and I could not taste meat for three months. ”

Zhao Wuxian said with a smile: "Master, don't be presumptuous, no matter what, the three hundred poems of "Poems" can be sung by all of you, in order to meet the sound of Shaowu Yasong, which is already very remarkable. I also heard what the master had said, and asked, "It's okay to die at night, and it's rare to see the master today, so the boy wants to ask for advice." ”

After saying that, Zhao Wuxian bowed respectfully, put his hand on the Se again, and Confucius also returned the salute with his hand wrapped in his wide sleeve, squinting his eyes and waiting. Zigong knelt on his side, and even Zilu, who was chattering on weekdays, was quiet. He understood that this was a special way for the master to communicate with the Zhao gentleman.

Listen to the strings. then you can know the meaning of elegance.

Fang Cai's very appropriate song "There Are Bitter Leaves" has already explained the meaning of Zhao Wuxian, this song is a song about a young woman's mood of waiting patiently for her lover. It is taken out of context and used as a metaphor for waiting for a friend.

The gourd gourd has bitter leaves, and there is a deep ferry at the water's edge, crossing the river? Don't be in a hurry, hurry up and board this boat, and listen to me finish this song.

A string song is prosperous and sad, and the two armies face each other, maintaining the life and death, success or failure, national fortune, and social welfare of countless people, and even the fate of Zhou Li in the eyes of Kong Qiu, but it can't delay him from listening to Zhao Wuxian finish this song.

Because if you want to hurry, you can't reach it.

Also because. This is perhaps the last song of peace......

Only Ji Sunfei, who couldn't bear it, jumped straight to his feet, but this was on Zhao Wuxian's territory, and he couldn't help but be affected by the atmosphere, so he could only shout in his heart.

"Uncle Zong, what the hell are you doing!"

……

Confucius was very fond of singing, and if he thought he could sing well when he heard someone sing, he would ask him to sing it again, and then sing with him. will make the opposite, and then make peace."

So when he hears good music, the song is insufficient, and he can't wait to dance with his hands and feet. But after listening to Zhao Wuxian play a song "Yellow Bird". He sat motionless, sharply critical.

"Little Si Kou's art is indeed rusty, just like a beginner. It's like playing according to the track, and it looks stiff. The hierarchy is not very well grasped. The music should be played with a sense of layering, and it should be an ensemble at the beginning. After entering the grand atmosphere, it should tend to be harmonious, and then enter the climax, and the rhythm should be bright and clear, melodious and touching. In the end, it came to an abrupt end, and the performance was complete. ”

Confucius pondered for a moment and then said: "As for the willingness and will, the yellow bird and the yellow bird have no collection in the grain, and there is no pecking at my millet." The people of this state are not willing to be grained. Returning to the words, recovering our nation...... I can hear the homesickness of Xiao Si Kou, but I always feel insincere, Xiao Si Kou is not determined to return? ”

Return, return, in Kong Qiu's opinion, if Zhao Wuxian can let go of his disobedience in the Lu State and return to the Jin State, he will turn a blind eye to what he has done, but in the Lu State, I'm sorry, there is no room for sand in his eyes!

Kong Qiu can tolerate a person's personal morality, but he can't tolerate arrogance!

No one is perfect, the former can still be changed, but the latter is against Zhou Li and digging the foundation of Zhou Li!

Zhao Wuxian gently plucked the strings: "The great mountains and rivers in the eastern country, how can you easily give up?" If the master accepted the fief of the Marquis of Qi when he went to Qi, when there were countless people under your command who relied on you, could you say that you would return to Lu? The gap between you and me is deep, and it is useless to talk more, I still want to perform a song, and I hope that the master can listen patiently. ”

"What is Xiao Sikou going to play this time?"

Zhao Wuxian turned his head to look at the dense army of Sanhuan on the other side of the river, and said, "Just play a song "Jianghan", ......

Without waiting for a few people around him to react, Zhao Wuxian followed the instructions of Confucius, and his hands were heavily played, and the song "Jiang Han" sounded.

"Jianghan soup soup, Wufu Xuan. Operate the Quartet and sue the king. The Quartet is peaceful, and the kingdom is stable. There is a dispute between the times, and the king's heart is in peace! ”

Once upon a time, Confucius, who was thirty years old, followed his teacher to learn music, and when he played the song "King Wen Cao" that he had been comprehending for several months, as soon as he closed his eyes, he could feel the image of the composer along the music: he was tall, his eyes were bright and deep, he was bent on influencing the Quartet, and he was broad-minded and able to tolerate the world.

Now, with the song "Jiang Han" sounding on the middle wing of Jishui, Confucius saw a similar situation.

The young gentleman in his eyes is confident and determined, his skills are much more skillful than the previous song, and the strings under his hands seem to have become the warrior's soldier and the knight's whip. Perhaps, this is his true heart: the warrior, the rebellion, the protection of the great, the people, and the wealthy, his ambition is "the four sides are peaceful, the kingdom is stable; There is a dispute in the times, and the king's heart is in peace"!

But Kong Qiu didn't care about appreciating this ambition, uniting the family, governing the country, and leveling the world is easier said than done. If he thought that Zhao Wuxian wanted to slowly endure in the Lu State obediently, or find an opportunity to return to the Jin State to inherit the Zhao family, then he might be able to become a new secretary in twenty years. But now it seems that when he said that sentence, Zhao Wuxian couldn't wait to take Sanhuan in the Lu country and replace him!

So in the end, Confucius only heard two words in the music.

Ambition!

Not to mention...... This son doesn't know what a courtesy is!

He set up a new official system in the territory without authorization, presided over the Lu League as a doctor, invaded the rest of the doctor's cities, crossed Luhou and Sanhuan many times to start wars with the outside world, and also did a farce of levying ninety-nine from the prince of Wu in the Song State!

"Now, you're playing 'Daya' here again?" Kong Qiu's long face couldn't tell whether he was angry or shocked, "This is the kind of music that can only be played by a scholar in the temple!" ”

Stop, stop!

Zhao Wuxian also stopped caressing, and after saying his heart, he looked at Confucius and said lightly: "I heard that Jin Ping Gong has no virtue and forced Pu Le, which led to a three-year drought in the Jin Kingdom. Nowadays, the temple of Lu has long been a humble house, can it still afford the melody of this elegant music? ”

He stretched out his hand and stopped Kong Qiu from speaking.

"Master, listen to me, three and three divisions, four offices, Ji's ministers chase the king, Lu Zhaogong fled abroad, and he can't return to his hometown; After that, Yizai sat on a big separation, Yanghu used his courtiers to carry out the country's orders, and the politicians were shallow, and the harsh government was all over the country, and the dogs ate people without knowing how to inspect them, and they were coated with hunger but did not know what to do. Meat eaters despise, the etiquette in the court, in the house of Zhong Ming Ding Food has collapsed, it is time to revive in Siye. ”

"Master, the era of Shiqing Shilu is over, in my opinion, in this world of great controversy, those who can treat the people well and revitalize the country, no matter their original identity is a secretary, a doctor, or a scholar, everyone can go to the temple, set up a ding, and play elegant music!"
