Exit from the South Gate of Xishi, go east along the South 2nd Street of Chūn Ming Street, cross the land of Wufang, and cross Qixiamen Street, which is Qinrenfang. ◎ Bungakan Ww.XgUAN.O◎

Du Shiyi followed Dou Shilang's words, and after entering from the north gate, he went to lead the way to Wuhou in Fangzhong, and sure enough, the other party simply led them all the way to the Dou mansion without saying a word. And Du Shiyi has not yet reported to the door, a servant has already greeted him, and after saluting, he explained with a smile: "My family Langjun has not come back yet, so I specially asked me to wait for Du Langjun when I rushed home." ”

smiled and nodded and followed the people inside, and when he entered the main gate, Du Shiyi saw that Tian Mo and Zhang Jian behind him were stopped, so he stopped and explained: "Zhang Langjun is my friend, and my score is still with him." As for me, a Kunlun slave, I have always been polite and sensible, and I am used to having him follow me. ”

The servant who led the way in front immediately turned around and gestured, and then continued to turn around and lead the way as if he didn't care about the two more people at all. Bypassing the main hall on a high foundation of earth, he explained, without looking back: "This is where the evening feast is. Doulu Guifei celebrated her birthday in Qinrenfang House ten years later. Although it was not a full life, because the concubine had been ill once before, and now that she had recovered, the sage was very happy and ordered to do it well. It's hard to say whether the saint is here in person, but all the kings and nobles are going to celebrate their birthdays, and my Shilangjun is going to present a Hu Teng dance, so tonight is a rehearsal. After hearing that the sage summoned Gongsun to watch the sword dance, he praised it greatly, and left Gongsun to teach his disciples in the pear garden, and then ordered the Gongsun everyone to present a sword dance for the birthday banquet of the concubine. ”

The name Doulu Guifei is not unfamiliar to Du Shiyi.

As early as in the Eastern Capital Cui Mansion, Cui Wuniang mentioned her. Dou Lu said that it was Ruizong's concubine, but the title of the concubine was still canonized by Ruizong Li Dan when he was the puppet emperor, and in the early years of Zhongzong Shenlong, his uncle Doulu Qinwang, who was the prime minister at the time, took him back from the table, and he has been living in the private house of Qinrenfang for many years. During this period, he has never taken away the title of the concubine, nor has he reduced the offering, throughout the ancient and modern times, this kind of example of the concubine leaving the palace to live in a private house is estimated to be the first. Moreover, Concubine Doulu has no children under her knees, and in her early years, she had the grace of raising her mother's current son Li Longji, and later obtained the permission of Empress Wu to raise King Qi for several years, and her affection is equal to that of mother and son.

For Zhang Jian, who lived in Xishi for several years, Concubine Doulu, who lived in seclusion, was not a familiar name, and she couldn't help but rack her brains to recall the only few words she had. Therefore, it was not until someone came to take them into a small two-story building that was as bright as a hall, that he came back to his senses.

"Du Langjun, this is the place where my family Shilangjun treasures all kinds of music scores." The servant saluted respectfully, and then pointed to the scrolls on the shelves on the four walls and said, "There are many ancient genealogies that are rarely passed down by the people, and Du Langjun can read them at will." For the birthday of Concubine Doulu, Shilangjun originally planned to ask the three Li Guinian brothers in Liyuan to compose music, but because the Gongsun family came to the edict, the three Li Guinian brothers had to compose music and practice songs for the Gongsun family in addition to urgently rehearsing the big song, so they could only send someone to apologize for a while. Today, Lang Jun went to Qianbao Pavilion to see if there were any ancient scores, but he didn't expect that Du Lang Jun also came, which was really lucky! ”

He was obviously a person that Dou Shilang was extremely fond of, and he explained the joints clearly in three or two sentences, and when he saw that Du Shiyi understood, he smiled and retreated. At this time, in this spacious room full of rare scrolls, Du Shiyi couldn't help but have her eyes shining, and she picked up a roll in a porcelain jar in the corner at random, untied the rope in her hand and unfolded it, and immediately hummed a tune gently. And Tian Mo looked around, and finally sat down cross-legged with some boredom. When he looked up and saw Zhang Jian standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but support his chin and wondered.

Lang Jun weishenme takes care of this Lang Jun?

Before Zhang Jian came back to his senses, Du Shiyi had already turned his head, glanced at Zhang Jian and asked, "Zhang Langjun, can you pass the spectrum?" ”

Tang people are happy, especially dignitaries and dignitaries, if Du Shiyi hadn't laid a good foundation for folk music in his previous life, and learned the pipa with Pei Ning in the grass hall and was proficient in reading and composing scores, he would only be unable to move an inch now. Therefore, although he asked casually, he also expected to get a satisfactory answer. He took Zhang Jian to Qianbao Pavilion or to Dou Mansion, just because he lived in Xishi and knew a lot about the affairs of the court, and because he was running around, he had a little sympathy and pity for a while, so he also wanted to help. But if he brought Zhang Jian to the Dou Mansion of Bi Guogong in this way, unless he was familiar with musical instruments such as the piano and flute, it would at least be helpful, and Dou Shilang would have nothing to say, otherwise he could only stop here.

Zhang Jian hesitated for a while, and then he said: "I don't know anything about pipa and pipa, and I only used to learn the drum for many years by chance. It's just that because of the inconvenience of the road from Jiangnan to Chang'an, I didn't bring it with me...... I haven't played for many years, but I'm afraid it's a little rusty. ”

The so-called drum is a popular musical instrument in Qiuzi, Gaochang, Shule and other places, and Hu Teng dance is the most matched, at this moment I heard that one of his southern scholars from Xuanzhou, Jiangnan Province actually jīng tong drum, he was stunned and said: "Since this ability, now rì Zhang Langjun is the right one!" ”

When Dou Shilang stepped into this courtyard with Wang Wei and Wang Jin's brothers, he only listened to the sound of pipa and drums in the room, as if he was playing a piece of music in an ensemble. He stopped and listened for only a moment, and then he was overjoyed, but he saw that Wang Wei had already left him and rushed in first.

"Du Jiulang, you said something casually, so that before I could take a breath, I was dragged over by Dou Shilang!"

"Brother Wang is really here!" Du Shiyi, who was sitting cross-legged, saw that Wang Wei was annoyed by what he said, but he smiled and groaned on his face, so he quickly got up and dragged him over to the seat he had just sat down, and then stuffed the volume of music that had just been copied in his hand in his hand, "Brother Wang, look at this, and I'll talk about the rest later." ”

When Wang Wei looked at the score, Du Shiyi saw Dou Shilang and Wang Jin coming in one after the other, so he had to step forward and give up his hands, and said straight to the point: "Dou Shilang, although the three brothers of the Li family can't get away now, but there are many experts in the pear orchard, why can't anyone compose a suitable new song for you?" ”

"Although there are many experts, you should know that except for the Li Guinian brothers, who are so talented and unusual, most people are used to those songs and dances in the palace, and the songs composed are often magnificent, although they have all kinds of customs in the Western Regions and the south of the Yangtze River, but the pattern is always too big. You must know that the Hu Teng dance I am good at is a small folk music, why I am the only one who is the best at this dance in the whole Chang'an, the reason is very simple. ”

Ming people didn't say dark words in front of them, and after a pause, Dou Shilang Suo said truthfully, "That's because although Hu Teng Dance occasionally has Han people to accompany the dance, the main dance must be Hu people, which is different from Hu Xuan Dance." Others are not good at it, but I am good at it, so no one in Beijing can beat me! At the birthday banquet of Doulu Guifei, it is very likely that the saint will not know about other people, and the disciples of Liyuan will inevitably present a song and dance as a celebration, not to mention the Gongsun who was ordered to go to Beijing and was ordered by the emperor to present a sword dance. Therefore, how to make my simple Hu Teng dance look chic is the most important. ”

This is said bluntly, I only heard about a general Wang Wei and Wang Jin brothers on the road, although they suddenly realized, Du Shiyi and Zhang Jian also understood very well. At this moment, everyone sat down one by one, and Du Shiyi said thoughtfully: "After counting rì, it is the birthday of Doulu Guifei, why is Dou Shilang going to stage a Hu Teng dance at the night banquet tonight?" From the perspective of others, wouldn't the re-enactment of the different rì greatly lose the sense of expectation? ”

"Because tonight King Qi will come in person."

Seeing this explanation, everyone immediately fell silent, and Dou Shilang coughed lightly and said: "It's just a rehearsal, with your help, I think King Qi will definitely be satisfied." ”

Wang Wei hurriedly swept the music score in Du Shiyi's hand, he already had some skills in his heart, and when he heard what Dou Shilang said, he couldn't help but raise his head and said: "King Qi has the best rhythm, and it is to celebrate the birthday of his adoptive mother Dou Lu Guifei, if you want to rehearse, it is better to make it clear to the king, in order to give Dou Lu Guifei a surprise, please forgive this song has to be treasured from Zuihou, otherwise there will be no surprise." ”

"Huh?"

"This is a wonderful idea, if the king does not believe it, he will invite him to come and see it!"

Du Shiyi saw Zhang Jian stunned in surprise, and Dou Shilang slapped his hands and agreed without thinking about it, he immediately understood that Dou Shilang invited King Qi to come at first, just to show him that he had done his best, and he didn't have any hope for any surprise and expectation, but just after grabbing two life-saving straws, he immediately magnified his hope countless times.

However, compared to those big songs that often cost tens of hundreds, and the teaching masters who use dozens of musical instruments and up to hundreds of people, it is really not so easy for Dou Shilang's song Hu Teng to be brilliant, at least that new song alone is not enough!

So, he said thoughtfully: "The piece I just played in the Thousand Treasure Pavilion was a study I made in the mountains, but the pipa and drum ensemble that Dou Shilang and Brother Wang Shilang heard when they came in before was made by my third senior brother Pei Sanlang. Pei's pipa is already famous, and he is even better at music and rhythm, but he doesn't like to show off in front of people, so he rarely becomes famous. But if you want to say that you are really talented and learned, you will not be inferior to the sè in the slightest. ”

"This song alone is really a masterpiece, and it is almost difficult to change a single note." Wang Wei also nodded lightly in agreement.

Although he only listened to the second half, Dou Shilang believed it, and immediately said: "Both of you said so, so naturally there is no problem with this song." ”

"But that's probably not enough." Du Shiyi didn't seem to see Dou Shilang's suddenly nervous face, and said calmly, "Dou Shilang just said, there will inevitably be a big song in the palace, coupled with the sword dance of Gongsun everyone, you can't do it by taking the ordinary road." And Hu Teng Dance is the folk music of the Western Regions, so it is better to find another way to take it lively and festive! ”
