Colorful flags fluttering everywhere, everywhere is filled with a festive atmosphere, the city has already posted the Spring Festival couplets, the couplets are posted on the main city tower of Luoyang, the couplets are: Hundred years of contemporary good?

Before the start of the whole show, the big families in Luoyang came to congratulate, each of them came to congratulate with different silver taels, just like the previous time in Luoyang Lingfu determined, at least one thousand taels per person, there is no upper limit, the big families are also very good at doing things and did not carry heavy money to help the fun, but each person held a red envelope in his hand, and the red envelope was written in the silver taels, and the person responsible for collecting these silver taels was the main Bo Yang Xiu, Yang Xiu prepared sufficient pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, In the future, the names of the people have been presented with the number of silver taels on the paper one by one, this is the bill, there are too many big families who come to the ceremony, Yang Qiu is too busy to come, in order not to affect the normal progress of the activity, Yang Qiu found a dozen servants to help keep the accounts, so rapid advancement, the big households are all filmed into a team to salute one by one.
Guan Yu stood on top of the city tower, seeing that the time was almost up, that is, when it was time, Liu Bei presided over the whole event, Liu Bei appeared first, only to see that he was wearing a red flower and the end, very energetic. Liu Bei held a large paper tube with amplified sound, and shouted passionately: "Next, Cheng Guan Yu will make a speech, everyone is welcome!" After Liu Bei finished speaking, the entire Luoyang City suddenly boiled, and everyone applauded to welcome Guan Yu to appear.
Guan Yu took the speech that had already been drafted, picked up a large amplified paper tube that had been prepared, and pulled his throat. Delivered an enthusiastic speech, he said: "Wantai updates the first spring, and the whole world celebrates the song all over the garden!" Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, on this special day, we are here to celebrate the Spring Festival, we are fortunate to invite the Holy God to participate in this event with us, the past year is a year of pushing through the old and bringing forth the new is a year to achieve leaps and bounds, a year under the blessing of the Son of Heaven, we have focused on several major things: the first thing is to deceive the heavens and the earth. destroying the country and killing the king; Messing with the palace ban and mutilating living beings; Wolves are unkind, and sins are accumulated! Dong Zhuo, a national thief who brought disaster to the country and the people and was full of evil, was brought to justice, successfully eliminated the remnants of his old department, and realized the overall stability of Luoyang; The second thing is to successfully eradicate the internal moth 'Modern' mage, who has deceived the members of the court and the central government with his so-called magic and Zen Taoism over the years, and has formed a party for personal gain. Arbitrage the treasury money, and connive at the forcible seizure of his subordinates. Constantly enclosing land and occupying land, carrying hundreds of lives. He used the White Horse Temple as a pretext to extract ill-gotten gains, and exploited the people and the rich families in various places, which amounted to a huge amount. He continues to expand and develop the underworld forces, and the 'T-shaped hall' in Luoyang is his wings, and this 'T-shaped hall' is rampant, domineering, and does all kinds of evil, monopolizing Luoyang's commerce and trade, and also cares about people's lives, and behind it is the strong support of this person. This person uses his influence to constantly encroach on resources everywhere. Cultivating his own forces, he was in cahoots with Yin Yangyi in Henan Province and constantly collecting money, and was overbearing. Fly camp dogs, use each other, this modern continues to expand the scale of the White Horse Temple. His subordinates gathered a large number of idle people, who were one of the three people who took the silver of the treasury every year, and this was such a scourge that was successfully eradicated, and the internal affairs of Luoyang were clean and upright; The third major event was the victory of the Western Expedition, which took only four months to successfully seize the land of Sanfu, pacify Xiliang, unify the west, and lay a solid rear for the imperial court; The fourth major event is the successful recapture of Bishui Pass and Tiger Prison Pass, ensuring the safety of the eastern part of Luoyang! Stabilized the situation in the imperial capital! The fifth major event is the personnel reform carried out earlier, which promoted a number of capable military generals to leading positions, streamlined the administration of elite troops, increased revenue and reduced expenditure, and saved unnecessary expenses! Looking back on the achievements we have made in the past year, it can be said that we have achieved fruitful results, the situation has gradually improved, the once chaotic situation has been lifted, the overall situation has been initially stabilized, and the government has also set things right to realize the normal operation of the organization.
In the coming year, we will strive to do the following things: vigorously develop agricultural production, comprehensively restore the agricultural handicraft industry and commerce under the rule, comprehensively revitalize the economy under the rule, exempt the people under the rule from all kinds of taxes, realize the policy of recuperation and recuperation, and let the farmers focus on resuming production; Vigorously increase fiscal revenue, and achieve a substantial increase in fiscal revenue through various means and forms; Promote the construction of a number of engineering projects, especially science and technology projects, in the coming year to achieve a number of new projects and new science and technology, vigorously strengthen the construction of farmland water conservancy projects, and focus on strengthening the repair and reconstruction of urban defense fortifications; Actively expand foreign exchanges, realize the development of trade and logistics, especially with the surrounding areas, and create a stable environment conducive to reform and development. The new year is a year of great reform, but also a year of strong foundation, is a year of connecting the previous and the next, is a solid step to achieve the unification of the world, the promotion of this work will lay a solid foundation for the future hegemony of the world to eliminate the Quartet, so we must realize the importance of this work, vigorously promote it, government departments at all levels and leading officials at all levels must deeply understand the importance of this work, strive to do their own work, conscientiously promote it, and complete the specified goals and tasks, Here I want to reiterate one point, that is, the reform plan is related to the development of the people's well-being under the rule, the stability of the court, the relevant governments at all levels must assume the corresponding responsibility, for the reform measures are not effective, the goal is slow, and even hinder the reform of the people and things to be resolutely cracked down, strict punishment will not be tolerated, of course, for the outstanding performance in the reform of the people and things we will also be commended and rewarded, when the time comes, we will convene a reform celebration and commendation meeting, the reform of the people and things to be commended!

Strive to realize the reform plan, conscientiously complete it, and strive to achieve a new new court and the great revival of the Han dynasty! ”
Guan Yu pulled his throat and finally finished the speech, there was no modern audio, Guan Yu almost didn't shout his throat, but fortunately, his voice was loud. Even so, he was afraid that people would not be able to hear clearly, and try to "broadcast" at the highest volume, people, especially those non-court personnel who came to participate in this event, saw Guan Yu, a legendary figure, for the first time, and appreciated his demeanor for the first time, he was so majestic, so tall, so majestic, and his speech was even more subdued, loud, and inspiring, really worthy of a leader, full of style, majestic, and Guan Yu was out of the limelight under the attention of everyone. People looked at this hero with adoring eyes, worthy of being the master, and his speech gave people confidence and strength, which is a leader who gave the whole Luoyang a strong shock
Guan Yu's speech summed up the achievements made in the past year exactly since he took office, and pointed out the direction and put forward the goals for the work in the coming year, just like in the modern government work report, after all, he is now the prime minister, and the prime minister is the head of government in modern times. It is also very appropriate to do such a government work report, but it is undoubtedly a new form and experience for the ministers and those who come to participate in the celebration. Guan Yu's speech made everyone present feel excited, especially these ministers in the court, but also enhanced the sense of responsibility and mission, although Emperor Xian was only a little more than ten years old, but listening to these words is also surging, Guan Yu's actions are in his arms, and Guan Yu is deeply pleased to make efforts.
Guan Yu finished speaking. Liu Bei then presided: "Next, His Majesty the Son of Heaven will announce the official start of the Spring Festival celebration!" ”
After Liu Bei finished speaking, Emperor Xian jumped forward, cheered up and shouted in a childish voice: "I announce the official start of the Spring Festival celebration!" ”
After Emperor Xian finished speaking, dozens of drums that had already been outside the gate were ready to stop, and suddenly thundered, "Knock、、、、 knock、、、、、 knock, knock, knock、、、、 knock、、、、、、、、、" This drum beat the earth-shattering sound, and the Buddha was going to collapse in two days, which was really earth-shattering. The people present felt that their hearts were beating faster, and with the sound of drums, another burst of hissing sound of "woo woo 、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、" resounded through the sky, and hundreds of one-zhang long drum horns also began to chirp, and together with the drums, the activities of the entire Luoyang City were ignited
The drums and horns rang for a long time before stopping, and the Buddha wanted to wake up the sky from its slumber, and after this burst of sound stopped, Liu Bei then presided: "Let's go to the next lion dance to celebrate the New Year!" ”
After Liu Bei finished speaking, he saw that the lion dance phalanx that had already been ready to go under Luoyang City was suddenly active, dozens of lions appeared one after another, the lion shook his head and shook his tail and jumped with him, and there was a person next to him who was constantly stunned with a stick wrapped in a cloth on his head, with the appearance of the lion, the gongs and drums beat the suona and also sounded one after another, it was really noisy gongs and drums, and the whole scene was pushed to a climax at once, lively and extraordinary, in fact, this era is still very unfamiliar with the lion dance, it can be said that there has been no such activity before, This is a feast that Guan Yu has dedicated to everyone as a modern person, in fact, Guan Yu is not particularly good at this kind of activity, he only knows a fur, because he does not specialize in this, he has seen it from some films and television, especially Huang Feihong's "Lion King Competition", Guan Yu has an impression of this lion dance, he thinks that such a scene can be lively without this event on such a day? After careful consideration, Guan Yu studied this matter with the minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Industry Ren Jun, and the two of them found skilled craftsmen in Luoyang to make improvements while manufacturing according to Guan Yu's ideas, and finally succeeded in creating this lion that was only alive.
The appearance of this group of lions undoubtedly added too much atmosphere to the whole event, and also feasted the eyes of the audience, even the civil and military forces in the court and even the emperor were amazed, this performance is really wonderful, while dancing with music, dancing while playing music, one by one lions jumping is really cute, the appearance of this show really attracted the attention of the audience. The lion dance is in full swing, Guan Yu and everyone stand on the city tower, pointing at this activity, many people praise this program is good, and Emperor Xian is even more intent! As a child, I liked this Sensei Duo, and I applauded it there! He had never been so happy, and he was even more happy at today's lively scene.
As soon as the lion dance program debuted, the passion of the whole event burst out at once. After the lion dance team walked away, followed by the children's soldiers, a phalanx composed of 500 boys and girls, began to perform, these boys and girls dressed in the kind of costumes of the past like the kind of costumes on the New Year's paintings, wearing red and hanging green, the hair is combed in the kind of "cage sparse" hairstyle, not to mention the cuteness, each holding a wreath of flowers in their hands, and their mouths are still humming songs. The ballad sings: "The harvest is good in the four seasons, and in the blink of an eye, it is the New Year, and the New Year to the harvest is so lively; The streets and alleys are really lively, the lion dance to see the lanterns, welcome the God of Wealth to receive the ingots, every household is happy, happy! Everyone laughs and says Happy New Year when they meet each other
Happy New Year. Happy New Year is more lively, both men and women, young and old. Wear new clothes and new hats, everyone is happy to be Taotao, every household is happy, everyone is happy to be Taotao, every household is happy, "
This phalanx of child soldiers is compared to the previous phalanx of lion dance. Although it does not have such a big impact, the cute and friendly faces and costumes and the innocent songs make the whole event show a harmonious atmosphere, adding more harmonious and harmonious factors to the New Year, making the whole event full of vigor and vigor, and the audience is also happy to see it. Compared with the lion dance phalanx, this phalanx is more affinity! These children especially make Emperor Xian feel happy, he is also a child himself, for these children who are younger than himself, these little brothers and sisters have really narrowed the distance between him and his peers, how happy Emperor Xiandi is to see this phalanx, this is also a "feast" specially launched for him by Guan Yu considering that Emperor Xiandi is a child.
After the children's soldiers phalanx passed, it was followed by a large singing and dancing phalanx, but I saw a large number of maids composed of a large song and dance troupe dressed up, these women dressed in costumes, dancing, dancing while walking, on both sides were large performance and music personnel, and soon a fresh music resounded in Luoyang City, it was really a lingering sound! This sound is completely different from the previous noisy sound, and it is not like the grandeur of the previous sound, this voice is so graceful, so soft and soft, it is really refreshing and refreshing after hearing it! The song is divided into nine sections: making full use of fingering techniques such as "overtones, rolling, whisking, squeezing, notes, up, and down" to depict the various dynamics of flowing water, and express the meaning of aiming for flowing water and the wise man enjoying water.
First paragraph: Introductory part. The melody is constantly jumping and changing the pitch in a wide vocal range, and the faint finger shift and the real tone are alternated, and the melody is hidden and appearing. I still see the top of the high mountain, the clouds and mist are shrouded and uncertain.
The second and third sections: clear overtones, lively rhythms, like "the murmuring and the cold current; Clear and cold, the trickle of pine roots. "Listen quietly, and the feeling of pleasure arises spontaneously. The third segment is a repetition of an octave of the second segment, which omits the tail of the second segment.
The fourth and fifth paragraphs: like the melody of the song, "its rhyme is melodious, like flowing water." ”
Sixth section: First of all, the melody rises and falls, and the large upward and downward movements. Then the continuous "rolling, slow whisking" as the sound of running water, and above it played a rising and descending tone, the two cleverly combined, really like "the extremely boiling and surging view, with the image of the dragon's roar." Listen quietly, as if sitting on a dangerous boat across the Wu Gorge, dizzy, thrilling, several suspects that this body has been running in the mountains, when thousands of ravines are contending. ”
The seventh paragraph: In the high-pitched area, the overtones are clustered, first descending and then rising, and the sound momentum is greatly reduced, just like "the light boat has passed, the momentum is like a feint, sometimes the aftermath is a rock, and sometimes the swirl is slightly wet." ”
Section 8: The variation reproduces the previous song-like melody and adds new musical material. Slightly fast and powerful, the music is full of enthusiasm. The sound of flowing water at the end of the paragraph is recalled, which is evocative.
Section 9: The carol-like melody is triggered from low to upward, full of passion. At the end of the paragraph, the seed material from the fourth paragraph appears again, and finally ends on the palace tone. The eighth and ninth sections belong to the "revival" part of the guqin music structure.
The overtones of the epilogue make people immersed in the thoughts of "Yangyang, the hope of the ancient tune".
Accompanied by the nine-section of the song, the singers danced and performed to the fullest, showing the whole piece to the fullest, not only giving people the enjoyment of listening but also giving people the enjoyment of beauty, this is called the so-called "sound and color", this song and dance performance is a common thing in the court, but it is not easy for those people outside the court to see such a scene, that is, those big families in Luoyang are also the first time to see such a beautiful scene, it is really in response to the sentence "This song should only be in the sky, where a few times in the world to hear" ah! The music of the imperial court fell to the people, which is called "the old Wang Xie Tang Qianyan, flying into the homes of ordinary people". The beautiful dancing and wonderful music simply opened the eyes of these people who had never seen it, and the ministers of the court and the imperial relatives were used to these dance music, just like their own home-cooked food, and they didn't feel anything. But for those ordinary people, the meaning of these songs and dances is extraordinary, maybe it is the first time in their lives to see the "scenic scene", of course, how do they know that this is specially arranged by Guan Yu to show them, the leader of the cloth clothes always thinks about these people, this is his feelings as a cloth leader, there has never been a class concept, even if he plays such a big role, his heart still can't extinguish the original simple feelings (to be continued......
