"The third batch of national treasures..."Chu Ang's mood has never been like today, looking at the hundreds of antiques in the cellar, he exclaimed, "This is the third batch of national treasures!" ”

"What third batch of national treasures?" Chu Heping looked at his son in surprise.

Chu Ang grinned and said to himself, "It turns out... It's always been there for me! ”

The first batch of national treasures were transported to the Northeast by the Japanese Invaders in an attempt to transfer them to Dongying, and finally the brothers of the Anti-Japanese Federation sacrificed their lives to protect these national treasures.

The second batch of national treasures were hidden by underground elements in the mound of Zhu Zhiyu in Sijiu City, and the so-called most dangerous place happened to be the safest place.

Before leaving Sijiu City, Chu Ang was still investigating the whereabouts of the third batch of national treasures, and even went to visit Hojo Murano, the descendant of the Osaka Division, thinking that the third batch of national treasures would disappear.

Unexpectedly... I didn't expect it to be hiding in my own home!

Chu Angqiang suppressed the throbbing of his heart, and looked down at the expensive antiques in front of him.

After a while, Chu Ang made a new discovery, and he looked surprised, "These antiques... There are even traces of restoration? ”

"Hmm!" Chu Heping nodded, "Your grandfather has been repairing these treasures for so many years..."

Hearing this, Chu Ang's eyes were sprinkled with a layer of ash, and his mind drifted very far away at this moment.

Nine times out of ten, the third batch of national treasures was damaged during the Great Wall War of Resistance, and grandpa has been secretly repairing these antiques for so many years.

After the war, as for why the old man did not hand over these national treasures to the state?

Is Mr. Gao still alive?

Or are you worried that your baby will suffer a second damage?

Or are the times unstable and have other concerns?

This question is worth pondering!

"What's that?" Liu Yun's voice pulled Chu Ang back to reality, only to see her stretch out her hand and point to a row of uniquely shaped appliances in front of her, and asked curiously, "It looks like a musical instrument!" ”

Chu Ang looked up, then nodded, "It's indeed a musical instrument, a musical instrument of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

As he spoke, Chu Ang was surprised to find these antiques in front of him... The cultural relics of the Tang Dynasty are the majority, accounting for 3/4, and there are many musical instruments, and I can't help but murmur secretly, "Such antiques from the Tang Dynasty... With the Japanese Emperor's love for the culture of the Tang Dynasty, the third batch of national treasures should be the treasures they care about the most! ”

"Presumably, in order to cover this batch of antiques, grandpa also had a lot of stories behind it, no wonder there was so much damage!"

Seeing Liu Yun's surprised face, Chu Ang explained with a smile, "The Tang Dynasty is one of the most powerful dynasties of the Chinese nation, with strong national strength, music culture and economic prosperity, strong military + open economy, and an inclusive mentality, the Central Plains at that time absorbed the music and dance of the Western Regions and other outside worlds..."

The music of the Han nation and other ethnic groups blended and gradually formed the "nine or ten tricks" of court Yan music, which made the music system of the Tang Dynasty more complete, the style was diversified, and the types of musical instruments reached the peak of the previous generation.

"According to the records of "Yuefu Miscellaneous Records", there are as many as 300 kinds of musical instruments in the Tang Dynasty, and the most popular ones are guqin, pipa, drum, zheng, flute, gonghou and so on!"

As he spoke, Chu Ang pointed to a musical instrument and said, "This thing 筚篥 (bì lì), also known as a pipe, you can understand it as an ancient flute, which is a wind instrument. It was invented by the ancient Qiuzi people, and the name is also derived from the transliteration of the ancient Qiuzi language! ”

"During the Tang Dynasty, there was a boy named Xue Yangtao, who was very appreciated by the great poet Bai Juyi. Bai Juyi specially wrote a long poem "Little Boy Xue Yang Tao Blows the Bamboo Song", which recorded the skills of this music boy..."

"The famous poets of the Tang Dynasty, such as Yuan Zhen, Li Deyu, and Luo Yin, also wrote poems praising Xue Yangtao..."

"According to the literature, there were many masters of the Tang Dynasty, such as Li Guinian, Zhang Hui, etc.!"

"The musical instrument next to it is called Konghou, which was first introduced to China from Persia in the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, and the art of playing has reached a very high level during the Tang Dynasty..."

The most famous evidence is the poem "Li Pinggong Hou Citation" written by Li He: "Wu Si Shu Tong Zhang Gaoqiu, empty mountains and clouds are not flowing. Jiang E cries that the bamboo is sorrowful, and Li relies on China's bullet to play the gonghou! ”

As Chu Ang spoke, he noticed that there was a book next to Konghou.

This book is not a treasure of the Tang Dynasty, uneven thickness, typical Republic of China craft paper.

Chu Ang opened it and saw that it was full of musical scores.

Seeing this, Chu Heping said, "I also found a lot of Tang Dynasty music scores before, but the Tang Dynasty books that recorded music scores have been eroded by the years, and most of them have been destroyed, your grandfather copied some of them when he was in the Republic of China, and the things of the ancestors can't all be lost..."

Chu Ang nodded, opened the score, and thought for a moment.

Regarding the musical score, in the Tang Dynasty, it was marked with "He, Si, B, Qi, and Gong", while before the Tang Dynasty, the five basic scales of "Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu" were used, also known as the five tones.

The term "five tones" first appeared in "Zhou Lichun Guan": "All texts are written with five tones, and the palace merchants are horned and feathered".

In the Confucian classics, "Mencius Lilu Shang" also recorded, "If you don't use six rules, you can't be five tones." ”

In "Lingshu Evil Guest", the five tones of the palace, business, horn, sign, and feather are matched with the five organs, the spleen should be the palace, its voice is diffuse and slow, the lungs should be quotient, its voice is urged to be clear, the liver should be horned, its voice is long, the heart is positive, its voice is strong and bright, the kidney should be feather, and its voice is deep and thin, which is the positive sound of the five organs.

Suddenly, looking at a piece of music recorded in the book, Chu Ang's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly looked at his father, "This... This was also transcribed by Grandpa? ”

Liu Yun looked up and found that the score was impressively written--King Qin's Breaking Array Song.

"Is there anything to say about this song?" Liu Yun tilted her head and asked puzzled, she didn't understand why Chu Ang was so excited.

Chu Ang muttered, ""King Qin's Breaking Array Music" is "King Qin's Breaking Array Dance", which was originally a military song in the early Tang Dynasty, and after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he personally arranged this music into a dance! ”

"It is a symbol of the peak period of the reign of Zhenguan!"

"And until the end of the Tang Dynasty, this song was still used as the legacy of Tang Taizong, until the strange road, and it was still protecting his descendants!"

"In 880 AD, Huang Chao attacked Chang'an, sounding the death knell for the Tang Empire, which was suffering from internal and external troubles.

"Only the Fengyang Festival made Zheng Zheng loyal to the Tang Dynasty and the country, but the officers and soldiers knew that the general trend had gone and they were unable to fight again!"

"Soon, Huang Chao sent troops to persuade him to surrender, and even big people like the prison army ran to meet the envoy, and everyone was ready to change the dynasty..."

"During the reception of the envoys, the drummers of the army were called to help the fun, and the drummers could only play military music, and after the song was finished, everyone present was moved, some whispered to cover their voices, and some burst into tears..."

"Perhaps inspired by the military song, the generals visited Zheng Zheng that night and vowed to fight for the Tang Dynasty, so they killed the messenger on the spot!"

"Huang Chao sent 50,000 troops to attack Fengxiang, the Tang army struggled to resist the enemy, beheaded 20,000, ambushed dozens of miles, and caused the towns to make a big earthquake, so the Tang Dynasty was revitalized, and Huang Chao turned from prosperity to decline, and finally failed!"

"And that night, it was King Qin's Breaking Formation Song that was played in the army!"
