Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The Jincui Building is located in the sword camp, the sword camp is a famous brothel in Lin'an, Mao Geng and the others have heard of it before, according to Xiao Er, it is not far from here.

But the two of them had a black eye on Lin'an, and now the two of them are also people with status, and being able to be summoned by the official family to see the court pair shows that their identity is extraordinary, and people with status will never ask for directions and do that kind of bad scenery that is not in line with the wind and moon. After the two arrived in Lin'an, they had long been accustomed to going out to take a sedan chair, going to the Ministry of Rites to enter the palace was a sedan chair, and of course they had to take a sedan chair when they went to the land of wind and moon. Fortunately, there was a sedan chair waiting outside the restaurant, but it was very convenient, so the two hired two sedan chairs and went straight to Jincui Building.

Sitting on the swaying sedan chair, Mao Geng sighed in his heart, the "sedan brother" service consciousness and professional ethics of the sedan chair in this era are exemplary, so far there has not been a refusal to carry the "sedan brother", the attitude is too good to be good, the fly in the ointment is that there is no meter, the price is shouted by him, but he doesn't care about a few small money, so he only feels very comfortable sitting in the sedan chair.

Along the road, it gradually became lively, and from time to time you will see the splendid portal with uneven light and shadow, and you can vaguely see many women in beautiful costumes leaning against the door. Mao Gengxin said, I don't know what kind of situation that Jincui Building is. Although he is not bad for money, he has poor experience and poor literati background, so he should not be treated as a junior brother!

After getting off the sedan chair, it was obvious that I arrived at the Jincui Building, and when I looked up, the luxury of the Jincui Building was a little unexpected. The lighting of the first Jincui Building is different from other places, Mao Geng looked at the lamps and lanterns at the door and on the corridor, they were all glass lamps made of translucent glazed lampshades, the lights were green or yellow, and under the soft and colorful lights, a Jincui Building looked noble and ambiguous. It seems that although the Song people did not master the technology of firing high-temperature glass, they still knew how to fire low-temperature glass with lead oxide added. This kind of translucent glaze is used in the green building to make lanterns, but it is very good.

At this time, there were bursts of sheng songs inside, which made people reverie again and again.

When the two arrived at the door, a beautiful maid greeted them and said:

"Two distinguished guests are here, please!"

After saying that, he led Mao Geng Wenyuan inside, and beckoned:

"The two distinguished guests seem to be visiting this building for the first time, it is also a very coincidence, there is a rare performance in this building tonight, it is a generation of merry and talented Jiang Kui playing the piano flute, and Wu Li'er performs singing and dancing.

Mao Geng didn't know who Jiang Kui was, nor did he know what Wu Li'er looked like, but as soon as Wen Yuan heard the word Jiang Kui, his eyes lit up, and he immediately asked:

"Is it Jiang Kui who composed the song "Yangzhou Slow"?"

"It is Mr. Jiang who wrote "Yangzhou Slow"."

As soon as Mao Geng heard that he was the author of "Yangzhou Slow", he said that he didn't want to understand it, and he knew that this was the author of "Yangzhou Slow" in the Southern Song Dynasty, and he was a generation of amazing and glamorous talents, but the word "Kui" has never been checked in the dictionary, so he has not known how to read it, until today, he knows that the pronunciation of the word "Kui" is "kui", ashamed! Ashamed!

It is said that the word "Yangzhou Slow" was quite popular in his previous life, and the most admirable thing is that the author not only wrote the lyrics himself, but also composed his own music. "Yangzhou Slow" lyrics and songs are unique, and it was widely sung in the Southern Song Dynasty for a while, and "Yangzhou Slow" has also become a well-known new word card. Jiang Kui is talented, a god-level music master and literary master, if you have to compare it with later generations, only Luo Dayou, a musical genius who arranges lyrics and songs, is comparable to it. But Jiang Kui is still unique in calligraphy, which is not comparable to Luo Dayou.

Wen Yuan can be described as a die-hard fan of Jiang Kui, so he said:

"Brother Geng, it's rare for Jiang Kui to play the piano and flute today, it's better to do what this female envoy said!"

Mao Geng had already forgotten what Niu Jindong was looking for at this moment, and replied immediately:

"Good!"

Then he said to the waitress:

"If we want to meet Mr. Jiang Kui for a while, I don't know if there is a chance?"

The waitress laughed:

"After that has to end, it depends on Mr. Jiang's own intentions. However, if the two are Mr. Mu Jiang's talents, the slave family can find a seat close to you for you, and it just so happens that two distinguished guests can't come, so they just let the two distinguished guests, but 'order flower tea' will cost you more money. The slave family saw that the two sons were rich and noble people, and the 'flower tea' was twenty times, which was not worth mentioning to the two sons, right! ”

The so-called "flower tea", in layman's terms, is about equivalent to the minimum consumption of a person who enters the song hall in later generations. The waiter serves tea after the guests are seated, and then the guests give the reward of "ordering flower tea", but the tea seat fee of "ordering flower tea" is quite slaughtering, at least several times.

For Mao Geng, being able to appreciate Jiang Kui, who is a great god in the lyrics and music industry, is nothing at all. Even if the consistent money is equivalent to 300 yuan in later generations, it is only 6,000 yuan, and 6,000 yuan can chase the most dazzling master star in the entertainment industry in the Great Song Dynasty, how can it be worth it!

The waitress led the two to a large booth of the performance, bypassed a table to a seat near the stage, and motioned for them to sit down and watch.

Mao Geng looked, the pattern of this large open room is about the same as the small theater of later generations, about is built for performance, always heard that the stage performance of the Southern Song Dynasty has begun to take shape, it seems that it is not only that, from what I have seen and heard since the crossing, singing and dancing, juggling, acrobatics, and commentaries are all a lot, the entertainment culture of the Great Song Dynasty is very good, and Lin'an is a place where all kinds of stage arts gather, which can be called the entertainment paradise of the Great Song Dynasty.

It is said that in the thirty-first year of Shaoxing, the teaching workshop was abolished, and the literary and artistic circles of the Great Song Dynasty were successfully restructured, and the musicians and singing and dancing artists who originally provided full-time ceremonial entertainment services for the Great Inner in the palace were laid off, and all of them turned into folk artists overnight. After these top artists went to the sea, they really rejuvenated the incomparable spirit of creation, they sacrificed all kinds of means, and suddenly let the folk entertainment and literature go to a higher level, and then continued to renovate, so that the stage art was greatly enriched, so that the Qinglou in Lin'an often has a special performance hall and stage, and the princes and grandsons can not only recruit prostitutes to have fun alone, but also watch all kinds of public performances to enjoy themselves. Therefore, the layoffs of artists in the Southern Song Dynasty stimulated artistic productivity in one fell swoop, and the end was very good!

At this time, Jiang Kui was singing Jiang Kui's lyrics and songs "Apricot Blossom Sky Shadow", the lead singer was dressed very pretty, it is now early spring in February, it is the season of spring cold, but she is just wearing a light shoulder silk skirt, fluttering ribbons, and even more slender waist, dancing and singing on the stage of the performance hall with a warm hearth, beautiful eyes and expressive, which makes the audience fascinated for a while.

Mao Geng has not yet adapted to the tune of Song Ci, so he is far less obsessed than other audiences, Mao Geng saw that Wen Yuan next to him was also intoxicated, and he could only sigh that his comprehension of music was really limited.

Mao Geng pays more attention to Jiang Kui who is blowing the flute, Jiang Kui on the stage is elegant and elegant, and there are some fairy bones, Jiang Kui's blowing of the flute must be good, in fact, it is also very beautiful, but Mao Geng still thinks that it is not as interesting as the music of later generations.

Although the lighting of the stage is not very bright, what is about to be here is such a hazy and ambiguous poetic feeling, but Mao Geng still noticed that there was a young man in the back writing and painting on an oblique board, and it took a while for Mao Geng to react, this person should be painting, he glanced at Wu Li'er for a while, and then looked at Jiang Kui's side, so it seems that it is to draw the scene of the two of them singing and dancing together!

This person is also holding a charcoal in his hand, which is clearly the way to draw a sketch, what is going on! Is it the so-called "light school" painting method? But Mao Geng felt that this person was not the soldier surnamed Niu who met in Chuzhou that day. Obviously, the person who painted the sketch has been concentrating on painting, and he didn't notice that anyone in the audience paid special attention to him, maybe it was the intention of the owner of Jincui Building, who wanted him to use his brush to paint the scene of Wu Li'er's singing and dancing Jiang Kui accompaniment today, and leave this moment of the scene forever, so that it will be good for the promotion of Jincui Building in the future, which is the same as the fact that later generations will hang photos of celebrities in person in the business place. After figuring out this layer, Mao Geng was not surprised.

At the end of the song, the people in the audience cheered loudly, and the scene of two or three hundred people cheering was also spectacular, but Mao Geng couldn't understand it, and he really couldn't resonate with everyone.

The next song is "Yangzhou Slow", at this time Jiang Kui no longer blows the flute, but plays the piano, Jiang Kui is a seven-string guqin, with the sound of the piano, Mao Geng can also listen to it, only feel that the sound of the piano is simple, the piano rhyme is long, and then Wu Li'er's singing sounded:

Huaizuo Mingdu, Zhuxi is the best place, and the saddle is less stationed at the beginning. Ten miles after the spring breeze, the wheat is green. Since Huma peeped into the river, the waste pond arbors, still tired of talking soldiers. It is getting dusk, and the clear corners are blowing cold, all in the empty city.

Du Lang is handsome, and now it is so heavy that it must be shocked. Longitudinal cardamom word work, Qinglou dreams are good, and it is difficult to be affectionate. The twenty-four bridges are still there, the waves are swinging, and the cold moon is silent. Reading the red medicine by the bridge, I know who I was born for every year.

This word Mao Geng once memorized it in his chest in later generations, so he heard it much more charming than "Apricot Blossom Sky Shadow" just now, but Rao is so, Mao Geng still feels that something tastes wrong. Yes! Wu Li'er's chant is the same as all the chant of this era, the taste of chant and fu is very strong, one word and one sound, also singing and singing, half singing and half singing, which is completely different from the singing of later generations to pursue smooth melody, although it is full of ancient meaning, but it is not something that Mao Geng can appreciate.

Mao Geng suddenly thought, if a generation of music master Jiang Kui can appreciate the singing of songs in later generations, I don't know what it feels like, will this genius musician get some special inspiration!

At this time, there was a more enthusiastic cheer in the audience, looking at this posture, it seemed that Jiang Kui and Wu Li'er had to partner to continue the performance, Mao Geng hurriedly attached Wen Yuan's ear and said a few words.

Wen Yuan looked surprised, thought about it, and then questioned Mao Geng:

"Brother Geng, is this good?"

Mao Geng leaned over and said loudly:

"I said okay, do my brother a favor, no, this is also a favor for Jiang Kui. Hurry, go! ”

Wen Yuan heard that since Mao Geng had said this, he no longer hesitated, and rushed directly to the stage.

When the cheering people saw Wen Yuan's posture, they thought that this person was obsessed with the performance on stage, and they even wanted to run on stage to express their admiration and admiration for the double performance of color and art, which was unprecedented. In the eyes of the Lin'an audience with great viewing taste, this person is so obsessed that he forgets his identity.

In a high-end club like Jincuilou, poor people don't dare to ask about it, and all the people who come are princes and grandsons, literati and, so there are no big men around the stage to prevent accidents, which makes Wen Yuan rush to the stage effortlessly.

When Wen Yuan came to the stage and was about to speak, a young man in the audience couldn't look at it, stood up, and tried to give a Daigo empowerment to this person who had lost his nature, only to hear him shout:

"This little brother, if you complain from the bottom of your heart, it's not too late to end the show, and you won't step down yet! I also have to listen to Mr. Jiang play "Man Jianghong" and "Yulin Bell". ”

The people present also heard that Jiang Kui's performance of "Man Jianghong" and "Yulin Bell" has a unique sound and rhythm, so today's program list also has these two, and they don't want to suddenly appear An infatuated fan rushed to the stage to disrupt the situation, which made the audience, including these young and handsome people, unanimously angry.

But Wen Yuan didn't care about it, but he arched his hand to the audience, turned his back and bowed his hand to Jiang Kui, and said:

"Mr. Jiang, can you borrow the piano, Xiaosheng has two new tunes, I want to play them, please Mr. Jiang for guidance!"

Mao Geng and Wen Yuan didn't bother to think about it this time, so they just said guess the question, no matter whether the question is off-topic, the two of them are guessing blindly anyway, lest there be a topic that they can't guess will be missed. probably felt that the Son of Heaven was all over the world, but I was afraid that Mao Geng would have heard of the new song "Poppy Beauty" and "Laughter in the Sea", so the two of them made preparations for these two songs. But Mao Geng doesn't know how to play the piano at all, Wen Yuan has some foundation in playing the piano, and Wen Yuan is not only born to speak, but also blesses his soul when he learns to sing, especially when he sings "Poppy Beauty", he can also regurgitate female voices, so in the end, the two discussed and decided that Wen Yuan would prepare these two songs. After practicing for a few days, although Wen Yuan's piano skills are still a little subtle, he finally sang well, which just made up for the lack of piano skills, and he was able to barely play so far.

However, Ting didn't involve this topic at all, and originally thought that a careful preparation was just a waste of effort, but Mao Geng turned out to be good, and he came up with an idea to ask Wen Yuan's class to get an axe on the spot, since Wen Yuan even came to Ting, of course he would not have stage fright on this occasion, so he went straight to the stage and wanted to find Jiang Kui to borrow the piano and prepare to sacrifice the ugly on the spot.

But Jiang Kui is a figure who is above the top in the music industry of the Great Song Dynasty, how can he casually hand over the piano in his hand to an arrogant boy who has not dried up! At the moment, he just smiled and said nothing, just when this person was a little crazy.

But then someone in the audience exclaimed:

"Oops! Isn't this Wen Yuan Wen Gongzi! The official family summoned Lin An Ting, but I don't know what happened to the court? Also, what about Mao Gongzi! ”

No need to ask, the person in the audience who exclaimed was Han Wu who had been to Xinhua, Wen Yuan had drunk with him and accompanied him for half a day, but just now Wen Yuan suddenly rushed to the stage, Han Wu didn't dare to admit it for a while, until Wen Yuan spoke out, Han Wu was sure that it was Wen Yuan who rushed up.
