Chapter 43: Mountains and Rivers
Liu Xiaoxiao didn't care about this, but since everyone had no objections, and the phoenix boats that the concubines were riding were all controlled by experienced palace people, and there were three or five palace ladies accompanying them, Liu Xiaoxiao had no objections.
The four of them got on a bright yellow phoenix boat carved with nine-headed birds, which was enough to accommodate dozens of people, and there was a set of tables, chairs and benches of golden silk nanmu, and there was a lyre carved with delicate phoenix tails in the front, and the lotus-colored curtains swayed with the wind, driving the fragrance of flowers all over the lake, which was refreshing and pleasant.
Hua Yaorui seemed to be very familiar with this phoenix boat, and diligently led Liu Xiaoxiao and others to sit down, and then sat sideways in front of the Nanmu lyre, with a slender jade finger showing white brilliance, caressing the strings, and a melodious and pleasant sound slowly floated out.
She played the song "Mountains and Flowing Water", the notes flew at her fingertips, flowed between the green mountains and green waters, passed through a wet forest path, picked the fragrance of flowers and plants, and carried the clear spring wrapped in Lingding, through the barrier of time and space, and slowly passed into her ears.
Back then, Boya stood on the edge of the spring water, sitting in front of the piano, dressed in a long shirt and white clothes, pulling a high bun, long hair fluttering in the wind, a well-defined face, blurred eyes, intoxicated with the strings on the piano, his slender hands, plucking the fingertip strings, for a time heaven and man are one, and things and I are forgotten.
There is a woodcutter surnamed Zhong in the mountain, who smells the sound of the piano, drops the back basket and firewood knife on his body, listens quietly, and the square drum and piano are determined to be in Mount Tai, and the child period says: "The good drum and piano are majestic if the mountain." After a while, he was determined to flow water, and the sub-period said: "The good drum and piano are like flowing water." ”
Boya heard about it, remembering that the master took him to Penglai to learn Wan Zichun's "empathy" attempt, but saw that the East China Sea was turbulent, the mountains and forests on the shore were deep, and the birds were singing.
After a song, he got up and gave a salute to the sub-period: "I am a native of Yingdu of Chu State, Jin Doctor Yu Rui, and the word Boya is also." The sub-period also replied: "A grassroots Zhong family sub-period." ”
The two exchanged a few words, and Boya played again. The sound of the piano began again, the rain fell on the mountains, and the rocks collapsed.
The woodcutter is very interesting, and the imagery in the song is all extremely transparent. Bo Yazi was in high spirits, talking about the rhythm of the piano, admiring each other, and reaching the twilight. Boya was invited to go to the cold house in the forest to eat and stay, kill chickens and drink blood to become brothers. Boya broke the dawn the next day and regretted that he would make Chu in the middle of the next year, and meet again in the Mid-Autumn Festival of the following year.
A year passed by in a flash, and Boya kept his promise. Who would have thought that the disease came earlier than Boya, and the child was already buried in the loess. In front of the new grave, Boya stained his clothes with tears, unable to speak, so he took out the piano and brushed it on the ground.
The sound of the piano is floating in the mountains and forests, faint, ethereal, looming, and it is still seen that the top of the high mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist, and it is erratic. The Si people have gone, the former bosom friend has long been unrecognizable, the soul is ethereal, and he has left behind the boya who is no longer able to play the piano.
Then, the murmur is like the cold current of the secluded stream, and the clear and cold is like the trickle of pine roots. Recalling the bosom friend between the two of them, Boya's heart was full of tenderness.
You can hear my ambition in the song, what you think is what I think, I can't hide myself in front of you, this kind of happy thing, is just like this Yang Yang leisurely, flowing songs, but life is a lonely boat on the sea, one is up and down in the turbulent waves, escape in the roar of the dragon, panic in the wind and rain, and this body is running in the mountains, struggling to move forward in the ten thousand ravines.
Just like this flowing water, after the resistance of the cliffs and boulders, the grinding of the icebergs and reefs, came to this gentle riverbed, wandering gently, occasionally the rocks will give a few small beautiful waves, and the sound of the cappella is more and more beautiful. But this is a kind of sad sigh of "Yangyang, the hope of the ancient tune".
In this way, Boya told the beauty of his life with his children and the shortcomings of his life through the sound of the piano. Before the end of the note, he saw Boya break the strings of the piano, hid his tears, and never touched the piano again.
After the song, Liu Xiaoxiao is also like walking into the mountains and rivers thousands of years ago, this situation, Hua Yaorui's playing and singing, also wants to express the friendship between her and Liu Xiaoxiao through the sound of the mountains and flowing water. Holding his belly for four months, he lowered his head and recognized his small posture like this, if Liu Xiaoxiao said that he was not moved, he would never be able to.
Yes, life is like water, there is no normality, when you can cherish each other, you should open your heart, don't change in life, and when you can't join hands again, you can't regret it.
"My sister's song of mountains and rivers makes my sister feel ashamed, my sister's mind, my sister understands, from now on, I will release my suspicions with my sister and cherish each other. ”
When Hua Yaorui heard this, he got up with a light smile, took Liu Xiaoxiao's hand and said: "Further on, there is the blooming Xia He, my sister thinks, my sister is afraid that I have never seen such a leafy Xia He, come, my sister and my sister will appreciate it." ”
Liu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, let Hua Yao Rui take her hand, the song of the mountains and flowing water was shocked, like an aftersound, Liu Xiaoxiao's fear of the lake was also lightened, the two stood on the board of the boat, a large area of pink summer lotus wrapped in a faint vapor, hit the cheeks of the two, and there was a slight feeling of coolness.
In the boat, Li Ronghua and Sun Meiren both had the same solemn looks, glanced at each other, got up, and followed behind Liu Xiaoxiao and Hua Yaorui.
But seeing that the two were intimate, the golden sunlight sprinkled on the two shadows, which looked particularly comfortable and leisurely.
Suddenly, another light boat that was also carved with a nine-headed luan bird came leisurely, but it was Nian Zhaoyuan of Tianlu Pavilion and Zhao Xiuyuan and Zhao Mengyao of Dongming Pavilion.
Both of them wore lotus-colored peach blossom cloud smoke skirts, wore one-color cloud temples and golden faces, and fell two pink beads, swaying step by step with their ethereal figures when they moved, and they were charming.
Seeing Liu Xiaoxiao and the others, both of them bowed slightly and said: "Concubines see Gui Ming Concubine Niangniang, Shu Ming Concubine Niangniang!"
Li Ronghua and Sun Meiren, who were not far behind Liu Xiaoxiao, also bowed slightly to the two.
Hua Yao Rui saw that it was these two people, so he turned his eyes and smiled at Liu Xiaoxiao and said, "Sister Gui Ming Concubine, the concubine will introduce you to these two people, these two are Nian Zhaoyuan of Tianlu Pavilion and Zhao Xiuyuan of Dongming Pavilion. ”
These two concubines, Liu Xiaoxiao can be regarded as having a few fates, they have probably seen them in the Guangyang Hall where the main concubine weaves snow, but she herself is a little face blind, plus there are many beauties in the harem of the Hades Palace, but she doesn't remember these two. But since she is Hua Yaorui's friend, she can be regarded as her friend of Liu Xiaoxiao, thinking of this, Liu Xiaoxiao immediately smiled gently.
