Chaos in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 10
As the three people got off the car, the more than 100 guards who accompanied them immediately stood still, their movements were uniform, and all of them were powerful, obviously they were elite soldiers with weapons in their bodies, waiting for orders.

In addition to these more than 100 soldiers, there were dozens of maidservants and servants accompanying them. After all, these three were all high officials in the court, and it was necessary to travel in a grand manner.

Walking in the front of the team is the chief guard of the Zhongzheng team——Yin Yun, the five-featured Zhonglang general.

Yin Yun cupped his fists and said to Lu Na, "Lu Shangshu, Weijiabao is ahead, do you need a subordinate to inform you?"

Lu Na looked at the other two with a smile, and said, "No need, don't ruin the fun of the two adults, we can go around the crowd by ourselves."

Yin Yundao: "It's just that there are too many idlers waiting here, in case there are secret agents or killers of the enemy hidden in it..."

Huan Chong interrupted him, and said with a smile: "Hey, General Yin is too worried, 'Bing Xin Yizhi' Xi Jian is here, don't lie!"

The three of them laughed at the same time, and then they walked around the crowd to the big platform built by Wei's house.

As the melodious sound of the hole flute came to an abrupt end, Li Chengkang opened his eyes that had been slightly closed.

Seeing the sad expressions of the crowd, he was quite satisfied with his performance. He looked at the beautiful figure behind the screen again, and said: "Cheng Kang has made a fool of himself, and I ask Ms. Wei to criticize and correct me." "

Behind the screen, there was silence for a while, and after a while, he said quietly: "It's an excellent song..."

"That's it? Aren't you a disciple of Ruan Zhongrong's 'Miaoda Octave'? Just such a sentence? Could it be that I can't play well?
You can tell by the expressions of the audience that I play very well! "

Li Chengkang thought depressedly.

Wei Xuan came over at this time and said: "Mr. Li's skill is extraordinary, it really hurts the listener and tears the listener, this song "Recalling the Old Man in the Kongshan Mountain" is amazingly played!"

Someone came to smooth things over, and Li Chengkang's embarrassment faded away, and he said, "Thank you, Patriarch Wei, for your praise. In the future, I will have to learn more from Miss Wei."

Guan Ziyang acted as if no one was around at the moment, regardless of the two people's flattery on the stage, Hei Nuer was holding the lyre, Qing Chan was tidying up the table and cushions, and the three of them went up to the stands.

Guan Ziyang bowed to the screen and said, "Thank you Miss Wei for borrowing the qin, Ziyang will definitely not insult this qin."

"Hmm," came a whisper from behind the screen.

Guan Ziyang sat cross-legged on the cushion, pressed the strings with both hands, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Since the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove are still alive, the first Qin melody in the ages that was handed down to the world before Ji Kang was executed must have not been handed down..."

Fingers open.

"Zheng...Zheng..." The overtone sounded like the sound of a sword.

The audience who were still intoxicated by the sad "Remembering the Old in the Empty Mountains" all stared wide-eyed at Guan Ziyang, who had already started playing on the platform, as if awakened by a wake-up call.

"Guangling San", the first qin melody in the ages, begins leisurely when Guan Ziyang's fingertips collide with the strings.

As the only piece of ancient qin music with the atmosphere of spear-spear killing, the impassioned and impassioned sound of "Guangling San" is a sound that has never been seen in the world of music.

"Guangling San" is also known as "Nie Zheng's Assassination of Han Puppet Song".

It tells the story that during the Warring States Period, Nie Zheng's father forged swords for the King of Han and was killed due to delay. When Nie Zheng became an adult, he vowed to avenge his father, hid himself in the mountains to learn art, entered the palace to assassinate the King of Han, and finally committed suicide.

Pointing to a section, the sound of the piano sobbed, alluding to the pain of the loss of a loved one, and the listeners who were already in grief all covered their faces and wept.

In the fifth paragraph of the Grand Preface, the sound of the piano is gradually accelerated, mainly based on the tone, melodious and bleak. Nie Zheng grew up and did not forget his father's hatred.

Zhengsheng [-]th paragraph, the rhythm of the piano sound clanging, from like a big river to the sea, thousands of miles to the sea, the endless waves are surging, rolling eastward, smelling color changes!It alludes to Nie Zheng living in seclusion for ten years and practicing his skills every day!
Ten stages of chaotic sounds, the sound of clanging, thousands of beads falling on the jade plate, Guan Ziyang pulled down the ribbon that tied his hair with one hand, and the hair immediately flew like a golden snake dancing wildly (Reborn: The stage effect must be full!) All the listeners, All of them clenched their fists, their eyes were red, and they gritted their teeth to avenge the bereavement!
In the following eight paragraphs, the sound of the zither sighs, stops the gesture, and ends the mind...

Nie Zheng killed King Han. In order not to hurt his relatives and friends, he destroyed his appearance and kissed his neck.

As the echo of Guan Ziyang's last overtone gradually dissipated in the mountains around Weijiabao, the song ended...

Zuo Min Shangshu Lu Na, who listened to the complete song, stood aside, muttering to himself: "I have been an official for decades, and I haven't thought it through like this kid..."

The chaos of the five chaos, the chaos of the eight kings, the name of the Central Plains was lost, the rivers and mountains in the north were lost, and the people from the north fled south in a hurry.

The so-called celebrities of our generation, Gou Quan's life is in troubled times.In the hopeless tomorrow, Jin people choose to escape, escape into the wine, escape into the chess, escape into the rhythm, escape into the clear talk, escape into the elegant talk, escape into the romantic and elegant that they think, escape into their own Admittedly bohemian, but few people mention those two words - revenge! "

The wailing of the subjugation of the Western Jin Dynasty is still echoing north of the Yangtze River. The Eastern Jin Dynasty, which has only been established for a few decades, is precarious in this troubled world.

The Eastern Jin Dynasty, which is in a corner of peace, is already full of elegant scholars!
At this moment, everyone in the field was like Lu Na, no one applauded, no one talked to each other, they all fell into deep self-examination!
Fuling County is affiliated to Fuling County, and Fuling County is affiliated to Yizhou, and now the entire Yizhou, two years ago, was established by the Di people, one of the Five Hus. They lived in extravagance and debauchery, and the people suffered from heavy corvees, making their lives miserable.

It wasn't until Huan Wen in the Eastern Jin Dynasty took back the central Shu area. After two years of recuperation, the lives of the people in the counties and counties in central Shu improved a little.
Time seemed to stand still.

Most of Jin people's music is mainly sad, and a few are cheerful, but no one has ever heard such impassioned piano sound!

Displaced and displaced people, no matter whether they are nobles or ordinary people, they all forget their common identity - the subjugated people.

Lu Na stepped onto the big platform first, followed by Huan Chong and Xi Jianzhi beside him.

Yin Yun, the chief guard who had been watching from outside the crowd, saw that several adults had appeared, and immediately lined up, shouting loudly: "Master Lu, Minister of Zuo Min, is here... Lord Gonghuan of Fengcheng County is here... Lord Changxi, the Sanqi servant, is here ..."

More than 100 guards armed with spears and armor, lined up, and the crowds of onlookers on the sidelines immediately separated a road from the middle for these guards to go forward.

Everyone saw that the Dazhongzhengs who were in charge of the examination for entering the Wei family had arrived, and when they heard the soldiers shouting the announcement, all the guests in the VIP box on the second floor rushed forward with all their speed.

Chang Zao, the magistrate of Fuling County, took the lead and greeted them as the local leader.

Although his surname is Chang, he is from the Chang family of Fuling. The Chang family of Fuling is just a commoner family, and his status is far lower than that of the Chang family in Shuzhong.

Originally, he could not be the county magistrate of the seventh rank, but Cheng Han had just perished, and Xiao Jingwen's rebel army had not been wiped out. Chang Zao, the eighth-rank official, became the seventh-rank county magistrate.

These imperial envoys are all senior members of the second and third ranks of the imperial court!
So all the officials present, big and small, knelt down to greet him.

There is a lot of noise in the officialdom, so there is no need to describe it...

At the moment, in the stands, Lu Na, Huan Chong, and Xi Jianzhi were seated on the four grand master chairs, and there was another grand master chair that was empty, which was reserved for another grand minister who had not yet arrived.

Before all the Zhongzheng officials arrived, the assessment would naturally be postponed, so Lu Na recruited Guan Ziyang to question him, and when he learned that Guan Ziyang was just a young man from the common clan, regret flashed across his face.

Li Fengnian brought his son Li Chengkang to meet Lu Na and the others and said, "The lower official is Li Fengnian, the Zuo Xiaowei of Shu County. This is Li Chengkang, the son of the lower official. It is a great honor to meet several upper officials today! Today, the dog shows his shame with the hole flute. I hope to get corrections from some famous scholars!"

Everyone in Jin has good reviews, and Li Fengnian is quite confident in his son's Dongxiao skills. If Li Chengkang can get the comments from these adults, his son's reputation will be greatly improved, and it will help in ordering products in the future. .

Seeing that Lu Na was still hesitating, Xi Jianzhi smiled and pointed to Li Chengkang and Guan Ziyang respectively: "Lu Shangshu, these two children are obviously competing for rhythm, but I don't know who was the referee before. How about letting you do the tailoring?"

Li Chengkang quickly replied: "We planned to use Wei Yiqing, the third lady of Ruan Zhongrong's Gaotu Wei family, as the cut."

Everyone looked at the screen, and the sweater behind the screen replied softly: "The little girl is not very talented, and I don't know how to judge it. It would be great to have a few adults present to make the cut..."

Lu Na nodded: "Okay, then Lu Mou is more respectful than obedient, but I can only master the seven strings, and Duke Huan's knowledge of Dongxiao is far superior to mine, so I can't teach others how to make an axe, why don't you let Duke Huan review the Dongxiao, and I will review it." Qixian, I wonder if Duke Huan will give you face?"

Huan Chong said with a smile: "If Lu Shangshu has such a taste, then Huan will make a fool of himself."

Huan Chong picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip, and said quietly: ""Recalling the Old in the Kongshan" is Cai Zhonglang's handed down qin music. The sound of mourning lingers around the beam."

He looked at Li Chengkang, nodded encouragingly, then stood up, paced confidently, talking as he walked.

"This son's breath is steady and long. It's really rare to have this skill of the hole flute at the age of a child. The technique is very skillful. Changing the melody from the qin to the xiao will not lose the breath in the melody. It's just that the meaning in the melody is only taken from its wounds. It lacks enlightenment and wonderful appreciation. It's a pity. pity……"

"However, if the young master of the Li family perseveres, given time, there is great hope that he will be listed in "Xiao Pin" in the future."

The Duke of Huan County said that he would be able to use the flute in the future, which is obviously a compliment.

People in the Eastern Jin Dynasty are very fond of fixed products, basically everything can be divided into nine grades, there are "chess grades" for chess, "flute grades" for flute, "painting grades" for paintings, "poetry grades" for poems...

Except for the ninth-rank officials who are determined by martial arts, and there is no limit on the number of people, the other nine ranks are one-rank and one person, which means which rank you are, that is, which rank you are in the world, which is equivalent to a ranking list.

When Li Fengnian heard that Lord Huan praised his son so much, he quickly asked his son to kowtow to Huan Chong a few times, and wanted to worship his teacher, but Huan Chong refused.

Appreciating a teacher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty is a great gift. Being a teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime. This is the true gift of master and apprentice in this era.

The Li family in central Shu is just a low-class gentry, and the Longkanghuan family is a top family. Li Fengnian's intention of wanting to be promoted is too blatant, Huan Chong refuses, and everyone is noncommittal.

Huan Chong said again: "Huan has had a relationship with Ji Zhongsan, the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove, several times. I have been apprenticed to him several times, but he didn't accept it. He said that my Dongxiao has the skill of becoming a master, but I have no chance to master it." , Chengkang, encourage it!"

What this means is that he wanted to worship Ji Kang as a teacher, but was rejected many times, but Ji Kang said that his skill in the flute was already very high, but he just lacked a chance. In analogy, Li Chengkang's skill in the flute was already very high, and he only needed one chance. What this opportunity is, you have to find it yourself.

Guan Ziyang muttered to himself: "Sure enough, Ji Kang in this world is also a great musician!"

Lu Na saw that Duke Huan's criticism was itching, and it almost touched his heart, and he became uneasy.

Criticizing others is a very prudent thing in today's world. It not only tests one's own insight and level, but also tests language ability.

Just now Li Chengkang's "Dong Xiao Song" is not difficult to understand, and he understands it, because it is simple, the word "sorrow" is enough to explain it, but Guan Ziyang's "Guangling San" just now is too complicated and mysterious...

At this time, Lu Na's head was big, but he could only bite the bullet, thinking in his heart: "Let's say as much as you want, no matter what, this is a ten-year-old child, and the deep meaning in the song may not be what I thought!"

So Lu Na got up slowly, and first praised Huan Chong's words of wisdom, appreciating the song very thoroughly and completely, and pointed out its shortcomings and profound skills.

Huan Chong also waved his hands with a smile, and declined the praise, praise, and so on.

Lu Na continued to speak loudly to the audience: "Originally, today, there is another Da Zhongzheng, but he is not present yet, and I am only the ninth of "Qin Pin". It would be most suitable for him to judge this song. But since he hasn't arrived, then Lu has no choice but to make a fool of himself. The meaning of this song, Lu does have some complaints, but later on, what Lu didn't say, everyone just don't ask for a deep understanding..."

Lu Na was about to speak.

"Hahahaha..." Suddenly, there was a burst of bold laughter from outside the arena.

Looking for the reputation, I saw an extraordinary handsome white-haired middle-aged man holding a jade ruyi, laughing loudly and floating towards him.

He just jumped down from the top of Weijiabao, his body was like a fallen leaf, and he descended slowly. This kind of lightness kung fu is so profound that everyone in the arena is moved.

Lu Na went up to meet him first, and cupped his hands slightly: "General Xie, it's been three months since we left Jiankang, so don't come here, General!"
