Chapter 13 The sound is written in the moonlight
Weiyin Building, Canglang Chamber, there is only one guqin worth seeing in this empty house. The ancient charm is extraordinary, but there is no half of the calligraphy and painting, which can be seen through at a glance. The doors and windows are wide open, and the street market is outside the window, and the sound of the piano must be heard inside and out.
The shopkeeper broke the silence and said, "Girl, you can go play." However, if you can only play some songs of warblers and swallows, it doesn't have to be time-consuming, and the old man can't get used to it, let alone the person you want to see. β
He Ju played in Nanming, it has always been a royal ritual music, I don't know if this is the so-called song of the shopkeeper, some of the worldly is true. If you think about it carefully, it is better to play "Why Fear", this dusty sound, maybe it can be exchanged for the pianist to meet.
He Ju had already sat upright by the piano and said, "This is the beginning." β
She plucked the guqin with a cold timbre, played a sassy song, and turned one by one, as if the pines and cypresses were standing upright, the five mountains were wandering, and it was like a sword and sword, chivalrous and prideful. Her slender jade fingers crossed the seven threads of Lingling, expressing her chest. confiding in the coldness of the moonlight, grateful for the long night, obviously as unrestrained as fire, but shrouded by the starry night, hazy.
For a while, the shopkeeper's other guests and the crowd in the market stopped to listen, and several side rooms also opened their doors, and the violinists poked their heads out to see what was going on.
At this moment, a female voice came:
"Qingqin makes a sassy song, and the sound is written in the moonlight."
He Ju listened to it and closed it: "Who understands this song so well?" I begged to see the girl below. β
The shopkeeper came back to his senses and said, "It is the person the girl is looking for, it seems that she has promised to see you, please come with me." β
He Ju and the three of them followed the shopkeeper to the next room, which was no different from the Canglang compartment, and the shopkeeper brought a few thin cushions and said, "Girl, please." β
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Xiao Qi responded.
"There are still accounts to be collected in the main hall, so the old man will not accompany him here, wait a while, and the people who want to see him will meet him." The shopkeeper bowed slightly, saluted each other with He Ju, and then went out.
"County Lord, does this luthier really know the whereabouts of the Stringless Technique?" As soon as the shopkeeper left, Ruoxin couldn't wait to ask.
"Whether she knows it or not, it's enough for her to understand it. When I was in Nanming, I searched for famous artists, but no one knew the meaning of this song. He Ju was looking forward to meeting the pianist.
Xiao Qi paused word by word, repeating what the pianist had just said: "'Qingqin makes a sassy song, and the sound is written in the cold moonlight. Sure enough, he is a man who knows. β
As soon as the words fell, Xiaomen opened lightly, she was an elegant woman, who looked seventeen or eighteen years old, but her clear eyes were a little less agile. The black hair is coiled into a spiritual snake bun, but there is really a bit of Zhen Mi's shadow.
"Three of you have been waiting for a long time." This girl's lips were slightly open, and her voice was transparent, no wonder she could hear it so clearly when she didn't see anyone just now.
"I'll see you at the pianist." He Ju Shili.
"Presumably the girl is here for the stringless technique." The pianist sat on his knees behind the piano and smiled.
He Ju was slightly stunned, and then replied: "Exactly." Does the luthier know his whereabouts? β
The violinist nodded slightly, and the snake's bun swayed gently.
"Could you please let the pianist know, I am grateful." Xiao Qi hurriedly pleaded, ready to reach out and take out the gold ingot he was carrying.
He Ju saw Xiao Qi's actions in a blink of an eye, and immediately patted her gently, Xiao Qi saw He Ju shaking his head at himself, so he knew that he could not mention gold and silver at this time, and then withdrew his hand.
"Recently, King Nancheng, the eldest prince of Nanming, was invited to form an alliance and ask His Majesty for the Twelve Secret Techniques, have you heard of this?" The luthier asked curiously.
"His Royal Highness King Nancheng has come down?!" Ruoxin was surprised for a moment and couldn't control his mouth and shouted, which made He Ju and Xiao Qi feel embarrassed, and they didn't know what to do.
After hearing this, the violinist frowned slightly and said, "King Nancheng, Your Highness?" Could it be that you are from Nanming? β
"The matter has come to this, and we have no intention of hiding it, we are indeed from Nanming, just to get the stringless technique, and we will leave." He Ju explained.
"Piano art knows no borders, and it has always been only by sound to distinguish people, and the girl has just played a strange song, and she is willing to intersect below. As for the mention of the prince of Nanming, I wanted to inform a few people that His Majesty Emperor Wei also sent people to search for the no-string technique a few days ago, but he couldn't ask for it. Treasure of gold and silver is not easy. The pianist was attracted by the song He Ju had just played, and was willing to tell the whereabouts of the stringless technique.
"In the words of the violinist, how can we achieve the stringless technique?" He Ju asked.
"The Stringless Technique is now in the hands of my master, and if you want to obtain it, you need to learn from the master. The girl's skills are already outstanding, but she needs to learn more stringless skills. The luthier told the truth.
"Dare to ask the pianist, can the song played below be slightly changed to melt some temperature?" He Ju decided that this person would be able to give the answer.
"When you learn the art of no strings, you can do it. However, my master needs to retreat with his apprentice for 10 days, so you have to think about it. The luthier reminded.
"It's okay." He Ju said excitedly.
The violinist picked up the guqin, took out a piece of beige cloth from the cabinet, wrapped the guqin, and walked to He Ju's side: "Take this, go to the Wuyin Building on Xichengmen Street, and she will see you when she sees this guqin." β
He Ju took the guqin with both hands, and didn't know how to thank the qinist, so he took off a bracelet and said: "If the qinist doesn't dislike it, I hope to accept it, this is not gold and silver, I made it myself." β
After a careful look, the violinist accepted the bracelet with confidence and said, "If we meet again, you and I will exchange names." He shook his bracelet and said, "Thank you." β
Xie Farewell to the qinist, He Ju and the three of them went west to the city according to the instructions of the qinist. It was getting late, getting darker and darker, although it had arrived at Xichengmen Street, but it was not convenient to disturb the seniors at this time, so I found a restaurant and had some dinner, rested, and planned to visit the seniors tomorrow.
...
γNanming,Ming Shixuanγ
Every late at night, Ming Shixuan will be shrouded in candlelight, if you can overlook, it must be the brightest place in the capital city of Nanming at night.
Ten Nights received secret reports from far and wide in the middle of the night, often much earlier than the Imperial Palace. A black shadow swept over the roof, Shiye turned his face sideways, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I said, in Ming Shixuan, take the right path." β
The black shadow immediately appeared in front of the Ten Nights, it was Nighthawk, knelt down on one knee and said, "Nighthawk knows what is wrong. I forgot the rules in a hurry. β
"Say." Ten Nights ordered him to return to the so-called urgency.
"Report to the Xuan Lord, the county lord is afraid that he is in danger." Nighthawk didn't dare to speak loudly, and whenever He Ju was mentioned, the mood of the ten nights was always cloudy.
As soon as the words were settled, I only heard a 'bang', Shiye shook off the teacup in his hand, stood up in an instant, and said eagerly: "Say it clearly." β
"The county lord is now in the Wei Kingdom, and the king of Nancheng has been secretly ordered by His Majesty to go to conclude an alliance. Who would have expected that Emperor Ming would pretend to form an alliance, and now he ordered a letter of rejection. Emperor Wei will not let go of the people of Nanming who are in Wei Kingdom. "Nighthawk is a general of Ming Shixuan, unparalleled in the world, he can travel thousands of miles at night, and all kinds of news are explored by him more reliable than the flying pigeon. However, this person can only walk at night, never showing himself in the sun, and when he reaches the sun, his skin will burn and itch.
Shiye's eyes were full of anger and worry, and his already white face was now even whiter, and he couldn't see blood, so he held back his emotions and said, "Can you stop the rejection of the book?" β
"I don't know why the big order was cut first and then played, and it was handed out early in the morning." Nighthawk replied.
Shiye gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and smiled contemptuously: "Heh, Emperor Ming, it's been a long time since I've visited you." "Ten nights know Emperor Ming's personality, and he must have sent an order to Yu Daxing last night to explain what he should do today. He had no intention of meddling in political affairs, but this matter was related to He Ju, and this account was recorded.
"Master Xuan, the subordinates failed to find out about this matter at the first time, it is a dereliction of duty on the part of the subordinates, and they are willing to accept the punishment." Nighthawk hurriedly bowed, knowing that he should have been aware of this last night.
"It's not your fault, if Emperor Ming's mind can even be perceived by you, it will be too peaceful that morning." Ten Nights said indifferently, as if he had thought of a solution.
Ten Nights slowly walked out of the main hall and commanded Nighthawk, who was kneeling behind him, "Stand down." β
He didn't look back for ten nights, and walked straight to the forbidden place of Ming Shixuan. With a push of both hands, the door opened. There is no need for candlelight, ten nights by moonlight are enough.
The moonlight sprinkled into the house, reflecting all kinds of amazing weapons, in the wind and night, reflecting a lonely shadow, casually picked up a dusty cloud sword, a thunderstorm, the wind and clouds retreated.
Putting on a black cloak, it seemed to be able to withstand the slight coolness of the night, pulled up the cloak and hood, covered this moist face, stepped out of the eaves, and from this moment on, the stars and moon were in charge of him.
A gust of wind blew the door shut and blew away the leaves, but it couldn't extinguish a trace of fetters in his heart...
