Chapter 228: Embarrassment
Oh, yes, yes! Yelu Yanxi couldn't stop nodding: a good name, he really wanted to find some Tang poems and Song words to express the goodness of this name, but unfortunately he had nothing else in his belly except wine and food and the wine and food he used to have, so naturally he couldn't find any good words.
What kind of music is the little lady best at?
Jin Xi'er said with a smile: What kind of music the guest officer likes, it is what kind of music, the slave family doesn't say everything, but there will be so many tunes!
Oh, the little lady is really versatile! Yelu Yanxi was so happy that she scratched her ears, and suddenly said: Can the little lady sing the "Ten * Eight Touches"?
The whole private room immediately fell silent.
That Jin Xi'er's pretty face suddenly turned pale, and immediately, tears immediately overflowed from her eyes.
It is no wonder that prostitutes and prostitutes were separated in this era. If you want to get their bodies, you must not only have money, but also know how to be gentle and considerate, and be able to please people, so that it is possible to get the favor of others, so you have a chance to kiss Fangze. And prostitutes are simply selling themselves, and they are generally the lowest-level ** workers in the brothel.
And compared to prostitutes and prostitutes, it is a little higher than the tricks, at least that's what they think. In fact, it is a kind of person who entertains people with sound and art, in popular terms, it is an artist, this is just an ordinary profession, but this profession is at the bottom of society, and it is more humble than businessmen. But even so, most of them look down on prostitutes and do not want to be classified as the same kind as them.
Although there are glamorous sounds everywhere in this era, it is needless to say that there are many such tunes in the brothel, and many people's private banquets also have such tunes, even if they are geisha, most of them will have some obscene words and songs, in order to entertain people, but most of them will be more elegant, such as the category of wild crossing unmanned boats, and will not carry white and vulgar words such as touching relatives. For Kim Hee-a, as a geisha, it was really a big insult to her to let her sing a tune like "Ten * Eight Touches".
And Zhou Huai was also embarrassed, he didn't expect that the imperial grandson of Liao would actually have a tune like "Ten * Eight Touches". And on such an occasion, he actually made such a request.
Yelu Yanxi finally showed the strangeness of everyone. He looked at Jin Xi'er for a moment, then looked back at Zhou Huai, and finally realized his recklessness. At that moment, he waved his hand and said: Don't be frightened, little lady, I'm just joking, just joking. Little lady, you can play whatever song you are best at!
In fact, he doesn't know much about Da Song's tunes, and he thinks it's quite boring for the few words he knows, only the relaxed and joyful tune like "Ten * Eight Touches" is his favorite, but looking at everyone's expressions, it seems that such a tune should not be played at present, so he had to change his words.
Zhou Huai hurriedly came out to play a round game: Little lady, if this is not the case, you have a fresh, it is best to make this official like the tune!
What kind of taste this official is, as soon as he opened his mouth just now, Jin Xi'er knew. She thought about it, then nodded, and said, "Then the slave family will have a newly learned tune." I learned it from a few Jurchen women recently, and I don't play well, so don't mind the officials!
When Yelu Yanxi heard this, he was a damn Jurchen again, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but although he had a short temperament, he was very pitiful and cherished, and he didn't want to be angry in front of a beautiful woman like Jin Xi'er. So, he just sat quietly and did not speak.
Zhou Huai turned his head and saw that Yelu Yanxi had no opinion, so he said to Jin Xi'er: It's okay, you can play it and listen to it, or that sentence, as long as the song is good, it will naturally be indispensable for your benefits.
Jin Xi'er slanted a pair of water-cut eyes and swept Yelu Yanxi over there, and seeing that he had no objection, he agreed: Yes!
As soon as the prelude to the pipa song was played, Jin Xi'er began to sing: The green silk is seven feet long, pull out the interior decoration, and on the pillow that does not sleep, feel the fragrance of green clouds.
As soon as this song was sung, Yelu Yanxi's face immediately changed and became very angry, and Zhou Huai's face also changed, turning red.
"Ten Incense Words" This is actually Yelu Yanxi's grandmother Xiao Guanyin's masterpiece "Ten Fragrance Words". I think that back then, Xiao Guanyin was finally given death because of this word. This is naturally a great shame for Yelu Yanxi, since he came to power, no one in the entire territory of Daliao has dared to sing this song. And even in the Great Song Dynasty, whether official or folk, almost no one dares to sing this tune, so although this tune is ingenious, it is not very well known.
But Zhou Huai knows the origin of this "Ten Fragrance Words", after all, he is the champion of the Great Song Dynasty, and he naturally knows more poetry and articles than ordinary people, so when he hears this word, he knows that this has violated Yelu Yanxi's taboo, and it may be difficult to be good today.
The reason why Yelu Yanxi was angry was not only because of the matter of his grandmother Xiao Guanyin, but also because he thought of a more intimate question: How could the lyrics and songs that I had banned in the territory of the Great Liao be transmitted to the Great Song Dynasty? How can this be reasonable, the Jurchens seem to be honest and honest, and they have always been obedient to the will of the imperial court, but they can't imagine that they are so harboring evil intentions, it is really hateful!
The more Yelu Yanxi thought about it, the more angry he became, and suddenly he slammed his fist on the table, and there was a loud bang.
The music in the room stopped suddenly, Jin Xi'er's pretty face was full of panic and doubt, and although Zhou Huai had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth on weekdays, he was also stunned at this time, and he didn't know how to persuade him.
Yelu Yanxi snorted heavily, turned around and left! Zhou Huai stood up and said, "Your Highness!" I want to keep people, but Yelu Yanxi has already left indignantly like a gust of wind.
Zhou Huai was frustrated, all his words and deeds today were predetermined, but he didn't know the consequences, he didn't expect that Yelu Yanxi would finally walk away. For a host-guest outsider like him, the most offended is the envoy of a friendly country, not to mention that Yelu Yanxi was originally the crown prince of Da Liao. offended him, and when he received him in the future, he would just find a stubble, so that you couldn't eat and walked around. Anyway, it is impossible for the imperial court to offend a friendly country for a small host and guest outsider.
Kim Hee-a sat there by herself. She really looked pitiful at this time, her body was trembling, her face was pale, and she was obviously terrified.
Although Zhou Huai was in an extremely bad mood at this time, as a scholar, he still cherished the fragrance after all. There is a difference between his pity and cherishing jade and Yelu Yanxi's simple and lustful pity and cherishing jade. He glanced back at Jin Xi'er, took out a spindle and knocked silk, and didn't see how many taels it was, so he stuffed it into Jin Xi'er's hand and said: You go yourself, remember, you can't sing this song again in the future, otherwise you should know the severity!
Jin Xi'er hurriedly said: The slave family will not dare anymore! As she reached the top of the stairs, a playful smile flashed in her eyes. But this look only lasted for a short time, and her face quickly turned into a look of panic again. Outside the door, the shopkeeper was waiting for her, waiting to share her red. The shopkeeper only cares about his own money and income, and has no interest in studying why the guests are leaving.
Only Zhou Huai was left in the room to sit there quietly, with a depressed face. Suddenly, he reached out and poured a glass of wine, tilted his head, and poured it in at once. Not to mention, the wine of this Li Kee Restaurant, although it is only a self-brewed water wine, does not have a special reputation, but it is fragrant and delicious, and the entrance is clear, which is really a rare wine. But although this wine is good, it can't drive away the depression in Zhou Huai's heart. He picked up the flask and was about to drink it again, when he suddenly felt the flask be held down.
