Chapter 225? piano

As soon as Jin'er saw Cheng Yue, she immediately perked up, threw herself into Cheng Yue's arms like a butterfly, raised her head and kissed Cheng Yue, and smiled coquettishly in Cheng Yue's arms. She had always wanted to have such an opportunity, and now she was the only concubine in the flower hall, and she could finally fulfill her little wish.

Cheng Yue loved her, so he simply hugged Jin'er and turned around a few times, and kissed her on the little mouth fiercely, Jin'er laughed happily, and Guan Sheng was woken up in a daze.

As soon as Guan Sheng opened his eyes and saw Cheng Yue, he immediately lost all sleep, ran to Cheng Yue's eyes in a few steps, and excitedly grabbed Cheng Yue's hand and said: "Xianggong come on, the piano is ready, this one is set up first, Xianggong come and try it." ”

Cheng Yue took Jin'er's hand and was pulled to the piano by the pipe together. Because Cheng Yue's drawings are very finely drawn, the piano made is almost the same as that of later generations. The difference is that the keys are made of extremely expensive ivory, which looks very luxurious.

Cheng Yue checked the workmanship of the piano one by one very carefully. The status of the craftsmen of the Song Dynasty is not low, and the craftsmen are not ashamed, so they have the best craftsmen in the world at that time, after the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols forced a large number of craftsmen of the Song Dynasty to follow the army, and made great contributions to the Yuan Dynasty's southern and northern wars, and this piano reflects the outstanding ability of the craftsmen of the Song Dynasty. Although some of the delicate parts could not be as precise and beautiful as later generations, they still far exceeded Cheng Yue's expectations. Moreover, the pipes are made of the highest quality materials, and the painstaking local trial and error makes this piano look at least quite good.

Cheng Yue opened the lid and carefully observed the mallet, guts, damper and other parts, which were very troublesome to make. Repeated trial production is required. Keep testing. You can't install until you find the one that best meets the criteria. In later generations, it took several skilled hands to make a handmade piano for nearly half a year, and Guan Sheng led a large group of inexperienced craftsmen to make it in just over three months, and the hard work can be imagined.

Cheng Yue saw the bloodshot in Guan Sheng's big eyes, and knew that she must have been tired in the past few days, so he was moved to hold her in his arms and kiss her little face gently.

Guan Sheng didn't struggle at all this time, happily indulging in Cheng Yue's kiss, and only felt that all his hard work was worth it.

Cheng Yue and the pipe heated up for a while. Sit down at the piano and listen to the scales and the quality of the sound one key at a time.

The pipe rises to the top of the talent, the scale is set extremely accurately, and hundreds of strings are made to pick out the two that are satisfactory.

The other concubines in the family under the leadership of Ding Niang and Mrs. Song also rushed over one after another, and the concubines were all surprised when they heard the full timbre of the piano for the first time, and they were surprised from time to time, and they all looked forward to Cheng Yue being able to play a song, so that they could listen to how beautiful the king of musical instruments in Cheng Yue's mouth was.

Cheng Yue had to go through the tuning tool and re-tune the timbre of a few keys. Pedals and other parts are also inspected. It's a long process and it's not much fun. But the concubines were very attentive and waited quietly on the side with great enthusiasm.

It was almost dusk, except for Yunluo and Baji, the concubines who were working outside returned home one after another, and when they saw Cheng Yue sweating profusely but fiddling with the piano made by Guan Sheng with great concern, they couldn't help but hold their breath, even if they were curious, they didn't dare to talk to each other.

After a long time, Cheng Yue knocked down the last key, and after listening to it many times, he exhaled and shouted happily: "Wipe your sweat!" The heat kills me. ”

The concubines who had been guarding the side immediately stepped forward and wiped Cheng Yue's sweat with the handkerchiefs in their hands. Some wiped their hands, some wiped their heads, some wiped their necks, and some stretched out Cheng Yue's clothes to wipe their bodies, and quickly wiped the sweat off Cheng Yue's body.

Cheng Yue sat down in front of the piano, recalling the etudes he had played on the piano in his mind. He has been in the Song Dynasty for more than half a year, and he has to use practice to get it back.

Cheng Yue took a deep breath and played from Czerny's etude, a simple melody that was conducive to quickly regaining his feel.

The concubines listened quietly to this unprecedented melody, the novelty is novelty, and the music is good, but it is not very good.

Cheng Yue practiced a simple etude for a short while, the style of the song changed, the fingers increased the speed, and the notes that jumped outward just now became smooth and moving, which was a more advanced Czerny smooth etude.

The concubines were interested, and the lively and elegant timbre of the piano and the transformation of more diverse tunes made them intoxicated and experienced a completely different musical form.

Cheng Yue practiced for a long time, and the piano musicality that he had accumulated since he was a child was quickly restored, and he liked the smooth touch of the ivory keys even more, and theoretically speaking, ivory is indeed the best material for making keys.

It was getting dark, and candles were lit everywhere in the house. Cheng Yue felt a little inconvenienced, so he stopped and asked Mrs. Song to have dinner.

The concubines applauded warmly, and Guan Sheng hugged Cheng Yuexi and said, "Did Xianggong just play the song for the concubine?" It's so good, the concubine body has to learn. ”

???????? Cheng Yue shook his head and smiled: "No, this is just an etude, I want to practice my feel, after eating, when Yunluo and Baji come back, I will play the piano music I wrote for you again." ”

???????? Guan Sheng was so excited that he hugged Cheng Yue coquettishly, and suddenly raised his head again and wondered: "Xianggong, you said that this is the first piano since someone started, but why do you play it so well?" ”

???????? Cheng Yue smiled and kissed her on the cheek, and said: "I have worshipped several masters, and they taught me, but they can't make such a good piano (Europe only has the prototype of piano at this time), so I said that this is the first piano since someone started." ”

???????? It was rare for the concubines to hear Cheng Yue talk about his previous affairs, and they all gathered around. Ding Niang asked, "Who are Xianggong's masters?" Where are you now? ”

???????? Cheng Yue counted his fingers and said: "That's a lot, such as Czerny, BugmΓΌller, Chopin, Rubinstein, Beethoven, Liszt, Pollini, etc., at least dozens of them." ”

???????? The concubines laughed when they heard it, why are they all such strange names? It's not good at all.

Ding Xiang said: "The names of the people mentioned by the officials don't seem to be from the Central Plains, are they all foreigners?" She is more concerned about Cheng Yue's affairs, and it is also an excellent harvest to return these things.

Cheng Yue nodded and said: "That's right, none of them are Han Chinese, they are all foreigners, and everyone is a master, but unfortunately they can't find it now." ”

Lilac said: "Why can't you find it?" Didn't the officials learn from them before? ”

Cheng Yue smiled and didn't explain anymore.

Lilac didn't know what Cheng Yue meant, and the more she thought about it, the more headache she had, so she had to write it down first, and then have the opportunity to understand it slowly.

Cheng Yue and the concubines finished dinner, and then practiced for a while, and Yun Luo and Ba Ji returned home. Hearing the sound of the piano from afar, he was full of curiosity, and he set aside the servant woman who was listening to the music outside the house, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Cheng Yue playing on the newly made piano.

Yunluo and Hachihime also sat down and watched Cheng Yue work his magic on the piano.

Cheng Yue became more and more proficient at this time, and when he saw that Yunluo and Baji had returned, he said to Guan Sheng: "Okay, everyone is here, I want to play this piano piece written for you - "Dedicated to Guan Sheng", in fact, this is dedicated to each of you, you are all my good wives, regardless of each other." As he spoke, his eyes swept over the faces of the two ladies of Song Luo, intentionally or unintentionally.

The two ladies, like the other wives and concubines, smiled unconsciously, but fortunately no one paid attention to them, otherwise they would surely attract suspicion.

Pipe Sheng sat up straight, full of anticipation. She had worked hard for so long, and all she was looking forward to was this moment. Cheng Yue said this song so wildly, is it really that good?

Cheng Yue moved his fingers, took a deep breath, put his hands on the keys, and then gently fell, and "Dedicated to Alice", which had been played countless times since childhood, poured out like flowing water, and every key of the piano was jumping happily, as if the music automatically danced with them.

The heavenly piano music reverberates in the early summer night, enchanting everyone who hears it. Guan Sheng's eyes were full of tears, for this moment, she had worked hard, but the piano piece that Cheng Yue played for her repaid her tenfold and hundredfold, and she died without regrets when she heard such a song specially composed for her.

Lilac watched Cheng Yue's fingers flutter on the piano like a dance, and the clear and transparent music flowing from it cleansed her soul little by little, making her involuntarily ashamed of herself, and tears slipped down quietly and dripped on her clothes.

The concubines were deeply immersed in this incomparable music, as if they saw a little girl playing in the water by the river, laughing and playing with her lover while hitting the water. Cheng Yue is not exaggerating, this music takes them into an unimaginable world, allows them to see untouchable scenery, so that they can fully integrate into the music, become a part of the music, and experience indescribable happiness and satisfaction.

Cheng Yue played this piano piece twice, and when Cheng Yue finished playing the last syllable, his fingers gently left the keys, and the concubines were still intoxicated and couldn't extricate themselves, and the piano sound still seemed to echo in his ears.

Mrs. Song reacted first and exclaimed: "What a beautiful piano music." The concubines woke up and burst into applause and cheers, and the servants outside also applauded and cheered desperately, and even though they were all women, they almost toppled the roof!

Cheng Yue smiled and bowed for curtain call, his movements were different, they were European-style, but the concubines didn't pay attention. Guan Sheng buried himself in his arms, and said in a choked voice: "Xianggong, you are too good to me, this dowry is more precious than anything else." If Xianggong wants to teach me, I will definitely learn. ”

Cheng Yue touched Guan Sheng's hair, kissed her on the tip of her nose lovingly, and said: "Of course I have to teach, I still have to rely on you to promote the piano, you have to be the first female pianist in the world." (To be continued......)
