The night before the beginning of autumn in the fifth year of Jian'an (199), Shixun changed his routine and went to bed early, and then in the middle of the night, he was forced to get up under the call of the servant.

At this time, people were generally accustomed to working at sunrise and resting at sunset, but after Xun started a family, he didn't know why, and gradually regained the habits of his previous life, sleeping late at night and waking up late in the morning. On the one hand, he is a scholar after all, even when the finances are in dire straits, he will not be unable to light the lamp oil, and in the dead of night, it is a good time to read and compose. Of course, people like Cao Cao who work hard all day usually sleep very late, but they often have to rush to the morning court, and it is impossible to get up late. It's a different thing, he doesn't have to go to the general morning court, although it is impossible to sleep until three poles in the morning, but he is also used to getting up from the bed after the hour, that is, around seven o'clock in the future.

It was not wartime, and there was no government to go to, although he was entrusted with the management of the arms workshop, and as the chief officer, he didn't have to order the mao—it was true that he got up with the mao.

However, this day was different, he yawned in the middle of the night, got up, freshened up, used some millet porridge boiled by Gan's, and then changed into a special set of clothes.

The court clothes of the Han officials have always been deep clothes, covering the knees, and the first five colors, that is, green in spring, Zhu in summer, yellow in summer, white in autumn, and black in winter. However, on this day, because of the grand sacrificial activities, the ancient ceremony was resumed. The court officials all changed into white robes with black collars and sleeves - even Xun can't be outside.

Although he doesn't have to sit in the government, he doesn't have to go to court. However, large-scale state sacrifices are a must.

After changing clothes, go out by car and go to the eastern suburbs of Xudu. Along the way, there are 6 cars and passengers converging, and the progress of the trip is getting slower and slower - fortunately, the big guys are all at the same destination, and there is no traffic jam. After walking a short distance after leaving the east gate, they arrived at the sacrificial site and got off their cars. Queue for return. When the rooster is about to crow, that is, "the night leak is not over", the sky is still dark, under the reflection of countless torches, under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, all the officials kneel together and worship the heavens.

According to the regular parlance. This is "welcoming the white suburbs", that is, welcoming the arrival of autumn.

When the ritual was over, and the day dawned, and each of the officials returned to his carriage, took off his white clothes, and changed into his silk robes—according to the old rules. This set of crimson court clothes should be worn until the winter solstice, and then changed to black, but according to the recent popular custom, it is only changed to half a dark day during the winter solstice festival, and then the red clothes are also worn.

Winter is the harvest season. Therefore, there is this sacrifice, and after the sacrifice, it is not possible to go back to each house. And there are still many rituals to be done. First the Son of Heaven parade, and then personally shoot the elk, by the Dazai order, the confessor to carry the deer to sacrifice to the mausoleum, the Son of Heaven returned to the palace and then awarded the military attaché, and tasted the new rice - so this day is also called "taste the new killing", in which the military parade, shooting ceremonies, collectively known as "Liu".

So after Shixun changed into a crimson robe, he returned to the queue and waited. The time is not big, the Son of Heaven came in a chariot, and the horses are all white-bodied and vermilion, which looks extremely miraculous. Shi Xun looked from afar, and saw Liu Xie galloping back and forth in front of the hundred officials, and then galloped close to the pre-built three-story earthen platform, got out of the car and took the stage. Immediately, Cao Cao and the other three princes were the three princes, and the ministers each held the wat board and followed to the stage - of course, not everyone is qualified to go up, but with the grade of Xun, he was able to stand on the second floor, and he could see the back of Cao Cao and the others as soon as he looked up, and the dialogue above could also be heard clearly.

I saw Cao Cao with his back to him, holding up a red flag, looking at the sky and raising it three times, and immediately there was a miscellaneous sound of footsteps not far away. Shi Xun knew that this was the beginning of the big military parade, and according to the rules, there would be military attachés leading thousands to 10,000 forbidden troops to drill the 64 formations of Sun and Wu in front of the stage. He knew that the military attachés in charge today were Cao Hong, the generals of the Cao family, and Xiahou Yuan—Cao Ren, Xiahou and others were all in the outer counties, and Cao Xiahou, who was currently in the capital, had the highest status—and they were not training the forbidden army, but the soldiers and horses of Cao Cao's headquarters. It's a pity that the military exercise is in Taitung, and the station is in Taixi, so I can hear the sound alone, but in fact, I can't see it at all.

However, he didn't have much interest in the military formation of this era, so he squinted his eyes slightly and began to stand and take a nap. There were faint drums, gongs, and the shouts of soldiers in my ears, which was very monotonous, but because of this, it was the same as listening to the lectures in the previous life, and it was the best background sound to assist sleep.

Of course, he couldn't really sleep, at most every two or three minutes, he hung his head slightly, and then he quickly raised his head again.

It seems that Liu Xie said above: "Quite majestic!" In this way, the crusade is not in court, and the enemy is not defeated! After a while, I heard him ask Cao Cao: "Wen Sikong will conquer Hebei again after the autumn, but is it?" Cao Cao replied: "Yuan Shao is not evil, and the former king of Shen ordered a crusade, and to this day he refuses to send an envoy to apologize for his sins and contribute books, which is necessary to plough the court and sweep the Lu, so as to show the prestige of the Son of Heaven." ”

After Cao Cao finished saying this, he suddenly took a turn: "The military formation is majestic, but it is a pity that there is no joy." The minister enlightened His Majesty, as a joy to strengthen the heart of the army, waiting for its conquest, the bells and drums rang in unison, the sergeants all sang, and His Majesty came to watch again, and its majesty will win today. ”

It's a spirit in a daze, yo, Cao Cao talked about military music and military songs.

In fact, this problem was occasionally mentioned to Cao Cao a few days ago, and he felt that the music in the army was all the music passed down from the previous generation. He knows that the cohesion of military songs in later generations is not small, but there is no such thing in these years, which is a pity.

At that time, Cao Cao just casually agreed to consider it, but he didn't expect to mention it directly to the emperor today, so Shi Xun quickly opened his eyes and listened attentively. I heard Captain Yang Biao ask rhetorically: "The army has its own happiness, what is no happiness?" Cao Cao replied: "Yale in the army can be suppressed, but not inspired." In addition, there is no music and no songs, and the soldiers do not love it, and there is no way to add to the majesty. ”

Liu Xie seemed to be quite interested in this mention, so he asked, "What kind of music is it that Ranyi can sing?" Can you have a belly case? Before Cao Cao could answer, the general Zhao Rong spoke first: "No clothes" is also. ”

Qin Feng? Unclothed. can barely be regarded as the earliest military song in China, Liu Xie immediately agreed. And beckoned: "Come." Since it was a sacrifice, of course, the whole vocal team was in unison, so I heard someone say yes: "Honor." "Yes Xun recognized this voice, and Nai Ya Le Lang Zhong Ling Du Kui is also.

Du Kui Zigongliang, a native of Henan, is said to be the most famous musician after Cai Yong. He was once exiled in Jingzhou and was taken in by Liu Biao, in the original history. It was only after Cao Cao's southern expedition broke Liu Cong that he was brought back to Xudu, but on this timeline, he followed Handan Chun several years in advance.

After a short time, I listened to the sound of the bell, and then a majestic chorus sounded. Yes Xun doesn't even need to listen carefully. He naturally remembered the words of "No Clothes"-

"Do you say you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son! How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son! ”

He frowned as he listened to it, and said in his heart that this might indeed be a military song, but it has been passed down to this day. has been invaded by the palace Yale so that I can't find the original tone, this is still only solemn, not majestic.

But it seems that Liu Xie is quite satisfied with what he hears, Shi Xun raised his head and looked, and the emperor seemed to shake his head. It's quite intoxicating. However, the singing has just stopped, and Liu Xie has not yet made a final decision. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting not far away: ""No clothes" can't be played! ”

As soon as the words fell, footsteps rang out, and someone hurried up the steps with a skirt in his hand, and fell to his knees on the edge of the top floor of the high platform. It's Xun who glanced over, but unfortunately his position was relatively biased, just looking at Banla's back - who is this? It's a little familiar......

I only heard Liu Xie ask: "Kong Qing, please get up - who is the cloud "No Clothes"? As soon as the surname was brought out in these words, it was Xun who reacted - it turned out to be his old acquaintance Kong Rong Kong Wenju.

Kong Rong knelt down and said: ""No Clothes" is for Qin music, the Qin soldiers are tyrannical, the so-called 'donating armor to the enemy, carrying the head on the left, and taking prisoners on the right' is also, this is not the king's army, how can its music be used?" ”

Zhao Rong was obviously unhappy - it was originally his idea to play "No Clothes" - and immediately retorted: ""No Clothes" is Zhou Shile, which must be written by Qin Xiao and Shang Yang before, and the 'king' in the poem is Zhou Tianzi, not Qin Jun. Dr. Kong is also a poet, and there is a tyrannical meaning in this? ”

Kong Rong sneered: "What General Zhao said is not right. Qin is Xirong, after practicing China, after filial piety is violent Qin, before filial piety is Rong Qin, all the songs are not Zhengsheng. Besides, my Emperor Gao raised a three-foot sword to cut the white snake, entered the customs and destroyed the violent Qin, Qin is the enemy of the Han Dynasty, the joy of the enemy country, how can it be played? ! ”

Zhao Rong seemed to want to say something, but was stopped by Cao Cao. Cao Cao said: "Although what Dr. Kong said is not appropriate, it is also reasonable. However, what kind of music can the doctor play, and what song can be the song of the six masters of the Son of Heaven? ”

Kong Rong replied: "The minister thinks that there is no need for a song, but if the Son of Heaven must have a song, it will be regarded as a new voice - the minister recommends Sikong Xi Cao Peng Wang Zhongxuan, please give it to the Son of Heaven." ”

Liu Xieken, so he immediately summoned Wang Cang to power. Shi Xun listened attentively with the second floor of the high platform, and there was not much time, and sure enough, Wang Zhongxuan's voice sounded, and the man chanted -

"There are bittersweets and sorrows in the army, but ask who you follow? Do you have to work for a long time? The day is half of the west mountain, and there is afterglow in mulberry. Crickets chirp on the shore, and lone birds fly. The husband has a lot of heart, and compassion makes me sad. I got off the boat and climbed high to defend myself, and the grass dew stained my clothes. Turning around and going to bed, who should I sue for this worry? If you are dressed in a bad way, you can't think of your own selfishness. That is, Rong has an order, and it cannot be violated. ”

Shihoon couldn't help but shake his head as he listened. Wang Cangwu's "From the Army", he can basically memorize all of them, in the original history, it had to be after Cao Cao pacified Jingzhou, Wang Cang began to enter the prime minister's curtain, and followed the expedition, which was written by this poem. In this timeline, because he joined the gang relatively early, this poem was released in advance, but the problem is not five, the first four sentences of "There is bitterness and joy in the army" and the last few sentences of "The Day and the West Mountain" originally belonged to different chapters.

The poem is a good poem, and the beginning is quite majestic, but the problem will inevitably fall into the common problem of literati poetry later, in terms of twists and turns, first say "The husband has a lot of heart, and compassion makes me sad", and then "turn around and go to bed, who should be sued for this sorrow", and only after suppressing it, "that is, Rong has an order, and it is not violated" - it is Xunxin who said how can these sentences in your middle boost the morale of the army!

Sure enough, Cao Cao was not satisfied, and beckoned to the audience: "Among the ministers, it is Hongfu who composes songs for the Son of Heaven." ”
