Chapter 688: Moonlit Night
The summer night in Taiyuan is very vivid.
A bright moon hung high in the sky, shrouding Yangqu County in a thin, foggy, misty silver white.
There was no wind and it wasn't too hot.
Sitting on the stone steps in the small courtyard, listening to the faint chirping of cicadas, there is a good taste.
Yu Yin took out the jiqin and sat down in the courtyard.
It's been a long time since I've played the piano, and I can't help but feel a little moved in my heart.
Tuning the strings and gently pulling the strings with a bow, Ji Qin suddenly let out a faint whimper like a cry.
Such a midsummer night, how can it not make people feel emotional.
After a moment of contemplation, Yuyin played the jiqin.
The melody of the music is soft, and the voice of resentment and sorrow is changed in two words, and it is euphemistic and beautiful.
Yu Liyan had already fallen asleep, and when she heard the sudden sound of Ji Qin, she couldn't help but be stunned, and walked to the window in her clothes. Through the thin curtain, I saw Yu Yin's thin back, which showed an indescribable lonely temperament in the moonlight......
"Third brother?"
Yu Liyan hurriedly rubbed her eyes, and then recognized that the person in the courtyard was not her third brother Yelu Tart, but the southerner Yuyin. I have to say that Yu Yin's Ji Qin is really beautiful. At this time, he played the work "Moonlit Night" by Liu Tianhua, a master of Chinese music of later generations. It is said that in the summer of 1918, Liu Tianhua was enjoying the cool under the moon, and suddenly touched the scene, and he easily played the erhu and looked at the moon to express his feelings, and he was happy to think about it, so he had the first draft of "Moonlit Night". Then, after six years, "Moonlit Night" was finalized. As soon as it came out, it was praised by countless musicians and spread quickly......
In the later erhu rating examination, "Moonlit Night" is also a compulsory repertoire, and it is even included in the top ten famous erhu songs.
When Yu Yin was learning erhu, he worked this song.
Now the scenery is exactly the same as Liu Tianhua's mood when he created "Moonlit Night", and he couldn't help but bring himself into the song. This piece is progressively melodic progression, with large jumping scales of sixth, seventh and octave degrees from time to time, with ups and downs and eclectic patterns.
Yu Liyan also loved Ji Qin and worked hard.
She had never heard such beautiful music, and she couldn't help but listen to it and savor it.
Yu Liyan can be sure that Yu Yin's technique of making the qin is absolutely original, and she can taste every subtle movement of Yu Yin.
It is like a spring silkworm spinning silk, a continuous tune, and a fixed termination type of each broken end sentence, which is definitely an innovation......
Sing and sigh!
This is also the unique effect produced by the song "Moonlit Night" after using the method of spreading and spinning.
"In the middle of the moonlit night, the Beidou is dry and the Nandou is oblique.
Tonight I know that the spring is warm, and the sound of insects is new through the green curtain......"
This is a poem "Moonlit Night" by the Tang Dynasty poet Liu Fangping, which happens to coincide with the scene at this time. Listening to the music, Yu Liyan closed her eyes, and the poem "Moonlit Night" involuntarily appeared in her mind, and accompanied by the tune, she sang it quietly. Her voice is very sweet, and when she was in Beijing, she was called the yellow bird of the Liao people by many people.
But now......
Yu Liyan sang and sang, and couldn't help but feel sad. The singing was accompanied by the sound of Ji Qin, and Yu Liyan, who was even more urged, burst into tears. Once upon a time, she was like this, carefree and happy singing under the care of her parents. Yu Liyan's mother is Xiao Sise, the concubine of Emperor Tianzuo, who was born in a wealthy family in Daliao and is the daughter of her uncle's father, who is talented and brilliant. The mother is so good, and Yu Liyan, as a daughter, naturally has a family history.
It's a pity that in the end, her mother was framed by Xiao Fengxian and killed by Emperor Tianzuo.
Not only his mother, but also Yu Liyan's mother's brother, that is, the eldest son of Emperor Tianzuo, Yelu Aolu, also died tragically at the hands of Emperor Tianzuo.
For Emperor Tianzuo, Yu Liyan respects and hates it!
At this time, listening to the song of the moonlit night, I was sad and couldn't help crying loudly......
When he cried until he was sad, he didn't even know when Yuyin would stop Ji Qin and come to the door of the room.
A slender hand appeared in front of Yu Liyan. There was a handkerchief in his hand, and he had a little body heat. Yu Liyan subconsciously took the handkerchief and wiped away the tears on her face. But suddenly, she came to her senses and hurriedly turned around and looked back.
"I heard crying and thought something was wrong, so I came up and looked.
The princess must not think that Xiao Yi deliberately broke the rules, but worry about any accidents. If the princess is fine, then Xiao Yi will retire first. ”
"You ......"
Yu Liyan's face turned red.
However, she also knew that Yu Yin was also out of concern, so she forced a smile to herself, "You are really ...... We are feeling uncomfortable, you don't say relief, but you want to leave, you are really a hard-hearted Lu man. Also, don't call us princesses again! Now we look like this, not much better than you, what kind of princess are we? Tell the joke!
When the queen mother is alive, call us to be swallows!
If you think we're friends, call me a swallow too......"
"This ......"
"Babble, what should you do, just say so, talk to us."
Yu Liyan said and walked outside the house.
After all, it's the boudoir of the daughter's family, how can you let a stinky man stay in it all the time? Even if Yu Liyan is a Khitan and does not have the cumbersome rules of the Song people, she still feels embarrassed. Yu Yin smiled, and without further ado, she accompanied Yu Liyan out of the boudoir. The two went downstairs one after the other, and when they came to the courtyard, Yu Liyan pulled up her skirt and sat on the steps.
"Xiao Yi, tell us about you.
I've told you everything, but I don't know your past. How did you come to Taiyuan? And why doesn't your wife come with you? She...... It's pretty. ”
Yu Yin smiled and sat down quite casually.
To be honest, he likes Yu Liyan's personality a lot.
is cheerful, not pretentious at all, and there is no so-called twisting of everyone's girlfriends, but more of a kind of boldness of an alien daughter's family.
"My own house is just a meat butcher on Mahang Street in Kaifeng."
"Huh?"
Yu Liyan was stunned when she heard this, turned her head to look at Yu Yin in surprise, and suddenly giggled, "Xiao Yi, don't you want to joke about us, if you are a meat butcher, then we are the sister-in-law of the warm wine in the wine shop." "Fast update, no ads, Bayi Chinese"
Obviously, Yu Liyan didn't believe it very much.
Yu Yin smiled: "Why can't you be a meat butcher?" ”
"You are so good at the piano, and you make a good piano, how can you ......?"
Yu Liyan was halfway through her words and suddenly closed her mouth.
Yes, if you have good skills and make a good piano, can't it be meat slaughter?
"You're really a meat butcher?"
"Absolutely."
"Then you don't do your job at home, why did you come to Yangqu?"
Yu Yin smiled, "That's a long story......
So, he told Yu Liyan about his experience in the past two months like a story. Speaking of good times, Yu Liyan smiled, and when she was nervous, she showed a look of horror. Of course, Yuyin won't tell her anything about the eight flashes and twelve turns, only that it is a family heirloom. However, when Yu Liyan heard Yu Yin talk about his life experience, she frowned.
"Your dad is Yufei?"
"yes."
"No wonder, you have such good skills."
"Have you heard of my Daddy's name?" Yu Yin was stunned for a moment, and then realized that ten years ago, Yu Fei and the Liao people were wrestling, and Yu Liyan was not the princess of the Liao Kingdom? Speaking of which, there is still a blood feud between the two of them.
The reason why Yufei died back then was because he fell for the tricks of the Liao people.
"We seem to have heard Uncle Chongde mention this name, and said that your father is a good man, but it's a pity that he was born in the wrong place."
Yu Yin's face changed suddenly.
Of course, he could hear the meaning of Yu Liyan's words, undoubtedly saying that the people of Liao also admired him Lao Tzu, but it was a pity that he Lao Tzu was the enemy of Liao State. His brows furrowed slightly, and his face showed an unhappy look, "Uncle Chongde, which one is it?" ”
"It's my king of the Northern Courtyard of Liao, Yelu Dashi."
Jerodashi?
Such a familiar name.
In history, after the fall of the Liao State, this guy led the remnants of the Liao State to establish the Western Liao, and even swept through Central Asia. It's a pity that the Western Liao Empire, which only existed for 90 years in history, was finally destroyed under the iron hooves of the Mongols......
Yu Yin hesitated for a moment and asked softly, "Your imperial uncle, how do you know my father?" ”
"When I sent the Great Song Dynasty, it was my imperial uncle who was the envoy, of course I know."
Could it be ......
Yu Yin chuckled in his heart, and had a faint guess.
Since his rebirth, everyone will show admiration when they mention his father Yufei. But no matter who it was, he didn't say who Yufei died under anyone's tricks, only that he was defeated and died on the stage because of the plot......
Yelu Dashi is an envoy of the Liao Kingdom, and he knows Daddy's name.
Maybe, this guy is the murderer of Daddy? Even if he wasn't, he must know who the murderer was!
For Yelu Dashi, Yu Yin has some understanding.
There was a record in the "History of Liao" that Yelu Dashi was the eighth grandson of Taizu Yelu Abaoji and belonged to the royal family. But if you think about it, how many blood relatives can there be in the royal family that traces back to the eight generations? The identity of Yelu Dashi's royal family is probably similar to Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, who is known as the emperor's uncle in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and may not even be as good as Liu Bei.
However, this guy is really capable.
In 1115 A.D., Yelu Dashi was twenty-nine years old, the first in the middle temple test, and Hanlin should be enshrined, so it was also called 'Linya Dashi'.
When the Great Liao was in turmoil, Yelu Dashi was quickly reused.
In the fourth year of Xuanhe, Song and Jin met to attack the Great Song Dynasty, and the Jurchens captured Zhongjing. Emperor Tianzuo went south to Nanjing, ignoring the government, at this time Yelu Dashi, who was less than forty years old, actually made a gamble to support Li Chuwen, the prime minister of the Great Liao at that time, and supported Yelu Chun as the emperor and established the Northern Liao Empire. When the Song army attacked Liao, the Song general Yang Keshi rode thousands of light horses, took Yanshan directly, and was ambushed by Yelu Dashi in Langoudian, and won a complete victory. Later, Yelu Dashi led his troops to confront the Song army in Baigou, Yelu Dashi avoided the main force of the Song army, and ordered the troops to wade through the water from the upper reaches of the west, and the two breads were sandwiched, and the Song army was defeated again.
It can be said that in the last years of the Great Liao Kingdom, this Yelu Dashi was one of the few famous generals in the Great Liao.
It was only later that there was internal strife in Northern Liao, and Yelu Dashi Fu returned to Emperor Tianzuo, fought a decisive battle with the Jurchens, and was besieged by Yan Zongwang after the Jin army was over, and was captured by the Jin army. This Wanyan Zongwang, also known as Wanyan Shulibu, is the second son of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguta, and is also the prototype of Jin Wushu, the fourth prince of the Jin people, in the later "The Complete Biography of Yue......
Later, Yelu Dashi escaped from the Jin Soldier camp and defected to Emperor Tianzuo, who was in Jiashan at that time, and was even more reused by Emperor Tianzuo!
That's right, it's Jerodashi!
Yu Yin's eyes narrowed into a slit, if I remember correctly, this Yelu Dashi may be a key figure in my change of history...... Thinking of this, Yu Yin's heart suddenly raced, and he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Yanzi, you said that your father and emperor can really win this time?" (To be continued)
