Crown Tang emperor

Chapter 0072 Talented

Seeing the shock on Shen Quanqi's face, Li Tong just nodded slightly and did not answer.

There's no way, I'm worried that if I open my mouth and laugh out loud, that would be too cold.

Sure enough, if you want to show off your skills in copywriting, you will have double the joy if you show it off in front of people who know how to do it.For example, Ouyang Tong made a big fuss in Feng Pavilion because of his facial features and brushwork. Although he still has lingering fears when he thinks about it, in addition, there is also a kind of happiness of meeting a bosom friend.

Now that Shen Quanqi has such an unbelievable expression, Li Tong is also very happy in his heart, but he is also telling himself to be calm, as long as he can save his life and make waves, such surprises will inevitably come one after another in the future. There is coming, where is it now.

Li Tong was not surprised that Shen Quanqi was attracted by copying one of his poems.If it is another poet who has higher requirements for poetic artistic expression, such as Chen Ziang, if he wants to say how brilliant his poems are, he will really be pouted.

But even if Chen Ziang came today, Li Tong would not show any timidity.So what about you, a master in the poetry world, I have been lying at the end of your artistic path for a long time.A master is lonely, and defeat is hard to find. This kind of state is still difficult for ordinary people to understand.

As for Shen Quanqi, he is a standard imperial literati, and his contribution to poetry is mainly reflected in the research and exploration of the style and format of regulated poetry, in short, the beauty of form.The Taige Style of the Ming Dynasty, the beauty of the system is really impeccable, full of craftsmanship.

It's also flattering, you are still exploring on the road, I have already fainted myself.In Yingzhi poetry, which is inherently lacking in individual subject matter, the difference in realm formed by nearly a thousand years of technical accumulation cannot be made up for by one or two poetic talents.

Even if it is an excellent work with occasional poetic talent, it can surpass this gap in technical accumulation, but in terms of horizontal volume, it can still leave you with no dregs left.Besides, who doesn't have one or two excellent works at the bottom of the box, Wang Wei and Li Du are also handy when they write corresponding poems.

Shen Quanqi was delighted to see the excellent work, and came here with great interest, but when he learned that the elegant style of this song, which he thought he could not match, was actually written by the young king in front of him, he was surprised, For a while, I forgot what to say.

Both parties were silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, but it was Li Tong who asked Shen Quanqi to take a seat, and his attitude revealed a touch of kindness besides politeness.Right now, his thoughts and actions are all out of utilitarianism, since Shen Quanqi came to Neijiaofang to be seen by him, he must have some calculations in his heart.

Li Tong was not very interested in Shen Quanqi, including his eponymous Song Zhiwen.Even if he has some celebrity obsession, he doesn't have time to chat with people.Such royal literati, the role they can play, Li Tong can pack and do it all by himself, in his opinion, it is not as valuable as Zhong Shaojing.

However, there is still a saying that the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Among other things, Shen Quanqi's choice of lyrics from Chen Zhitaile's office alone is enough to make Li Tong get closer to him.Not to mention that this person has been in office for a long time and has been serving as Wu Zetian's imperial literati all the year round. It can be said that Shen Quanqi's artistic concept represents Wu Zetian's aesthetic preferences to a certain extent.

"Little Wang has been in confinement for a long time, and he didn't know that Shen Yuanwai was still in charge of the Yuefu. Before that, he was unbearably talented, and inspired by Master Xue, he had occasional wild thoughts, and wanted to make a new voice for palace merchants. Now it seems that it is Xiao Wang Da Da's." Don't overestimate yourself, Yuefu has its own talents, so why bother to show your clumsiness by idlers."

Speaking of this, Li Tong looked at Shen Quanqi again with a smile, and continued: "But I always give up on love, and I throw all my energy at it. I always look forward to being rewarded by Fang's family. I am here today, and I am anxious to ask for advice. Don't be shy about your voice, warn me with good words, is it difficult to read the sentence and show it to others?"

"Um... eh?"

Shen Quanqi lowered his head and murmured, still a little dull, raised his head after hearing the words, and said after a little deliberation: "Your Majesty is really too modest. After the Qu Ci was entered into the case, he was rewarded with a humble job. I only feel that the style is upright. Elegant diction, looking at various pavilions and pavilions, there are few comparable..."

When Li Tong heard this, his brows raised immediately. He could understand the meaning of being too fancy, but he still didn't expect Shen Quanqi to have such a high opinion of his lyrics.After all, the literati are sour, and it is inevitable to be cold-eyed.

But thinking about it again, apart from being a literati, he himself is also a clan king, and there is no sense of competition with Shen Quanqi.If this piece of music was written by Song Zhiwen, no matter how beautiful the system is, it would be discounted in Shen Quanqi's eyes.

"It's absurd praise from outsiders, I'm really ashamed of being righteous and dare not accept it. I'm young, I used to be educated at home, and soon made art in the inner hall, and my knowledge is still meager, and my talents are no more than despicable. How dare I beat the head of the hall. So I am bold. To control this kind of bug, it is nothing more than emotional, impatient, from the heart, and sculpted with the pen. I also know that the members are elegant and generous, and the kind words are supportive, or they are not as good as what they say. My heart is also very happy. Since the members are not Kind words to comfort me, should the song "Vientiane" be playable?"

"Such a melody, if you can't get into the music, what more can you get into?"

King Yong'an's attitude was so polite, Shen Quanqi naturally couldn't put on airs, so he replied with a smile.

It's not that he doesn't know the identity of King Yong'an, it's just that he is only a prepositional minister, and he doesn't have that deep involvement in the disputes of the court.Besides, even if there is no such relationship as Xue Huaiyi, Shen Quanqi still feels that it is enough to enjoy the music just based on the quality of the lyrics.

It's just that even if he praised it, he still only aimed at the song itself, because he still had some reservations about whether the song was written by King Yong'an in his heart.

He was a Jinshi in the second year of Shangyuan, and he was only a young man at that time. He can be said to be a leader in the dynasty, a first-rate literary talent, and even himself back then was unable to compose this splendid article. It is natural to have reservations about idle talents and interests.

Hearing Shen Quanqi's answer, Li Tong was overjoyed, and raised his hand to summon the head of the department, Kang Duobao, and said: "The Yuefu has already accepted the speech, and the head of the Ministry of Music hastened to get the deputy secretary and Bai Cheng to join the music and pass on the sound. "

After finishing speaking, he turned to Shen Quanqi and said with a smile: "This "Vientiane" Daqu is dedicated to the New Year's feast, and the ceremony is approaching, so there is no room for delay. The haste made the members of Shen laugh."

After Shen Quanqi heard the words, he was also a little curious, and asked: "Based on this, it's only been a month, how many times does the song not know the law? I also love this beautiful speech, and I'm afraid I can't catch up with the humiliating song..."

"I forgot, Yuanwai has been involved in the affairs of Yuefu for a long time, so he is a virtuous person. I don't know if Yuanwai has spare time, so I can stay here and give my little jade axe?"

Li Tong also remembered that Shen Quanqi was not just an imperial literati who was a master of poetry, but also a Jinshi and the second Xie Brown Xie Lvlang.It seems that the casual suggestion just now made him open up a new way of thinking.

His speech has been recognized, and he can rest assured, but he still lacks confidence in the form of the music.It would undoubtedly be more secure if he could be appraised by a talented person like Shen Quanqi.

"The king's arrangement of instruments and music is well-organized. I'm an idler with a humble job, but I also want to get a close look at the all-rounder, and I hope the king will not get tired of it."

Shen Quanqi was not very interested in the song made by King Yong'an, he still wanted to find out whether the song was written by King Yong'an, and he nodded in agreement after hearing the words.

When Li Tong heard this, he naturally felt happier.Speaking of which, he has been in this world for so long, except for his family and Ouyang Tong's remote operation, this is really the first time someone has taken the initiative to join him.Although he has been in the dust for a long time and no one cares about him, Li Shouyi, the king of the Tang Dynasty, is not a stinking piece of shit!

After chatting with each other for a few words, Li Tong ordered the musicians to continue to perform a few tunes selected before.Although Shen Quanqi praised him for being well-organized, he knew what kind of guy he was, and felt that it would be safer to let professionals listen to him.

Shen Quanqi sat in the table and listened attentively. Although he didn't speak, his brows were trembling frequently. It could be seen that he was feeling uncomfortable.

Sitting on one side, Li Tong seemed to be listening attentively. He didn't have much confidence in his all-encompassing idea of ​​arranging the song, and he wasn't disappointed when he couldn't see any surprise on Shen Quanqi's face.Even if it still needs to be hacked and carved, it must first provide a sufficiently bloated material body.

After playing a few songs, Shen Quanqi pondered for a while, and then slowly opened his mouth. What he said was not about the music itself, but about the origin and differences between different instruments and styles.

Li Tong could be regarded as knowing the elegance of the stringed songs. Hearing what Shen Quanqi said, he understood that the few pieces of movement he had pieced together were a bit ear-piercing.When it comes to poetry, he can teach Shen Quanqi, but when it comes to areas that he is not good at, he still has to accept it with humility.

Shen Quanqi was not very interested in the music itself, but when it came to the conversation, he found that King Yong'an had almost no foundation in rhythm, and his doubts inevitably deepened.It should be noted that the lyrics themselves need to be coordinated. With such a lack of knowledge of music theory, Yongan Wang can create such elegant and neat lyrics?

As soon as he thought about it, he sighed, and then said again: "The sound and words are in harmony with the rhythm, but the lyrics are the foundation of the music. The king's pen is beautiful, and I think he is disgusted by the old voice of the humble office?"

Li Tong laughed after hearing the words, with a bit of self-mockery on his face: "Personnel affairs may be hard to say, but they can also be sued. Although Xiao Wang Youlai is fond of law, but he lives in a deep place and is cautious, but he seldom uses silk and bamboo. As an entertainer, wild singers sing, the five tones are in one mouth, and the words are all derived from it. Because of the lack of knowledge of palace merchants, the craftsmanship only strives for flat tones, laughing at everyone..."

Li Tong had already considered the issue Shen Quanqi was referring to.He had to rely on copying to fool around, and as a result, he didn't even understand the basic rhythm format, so he couldn't help but win people's trust.The basic skills are not good enough, let alone a higher level of poetic artistic conception.

The reason he mentioned is precisely the problem that later generations are studying poetry.Because there is no matching of tunes, I can only focus more on the pondering of vocals.This standard is more intuitive and simple than the law of sound and poetry.

When Li Tong first came into contact with Tang poetry, Li Tong didn't understand such changes as flat and flat. Is such a simple change in rhythm worth hundreds of years of exploration and perfection by several generations?

But the more I understand, the more I understand that the so-called plain and oblique format is just a convenient method, and the essence of poetry is the talent and charm.The problem of loss of harmony is not unique to later generations. The loss of ancient music is a gradual process. Therefore, the theme of poetry has gradually developed, and it has grown in neatness and ruined in weather, so that there is nothing other than meter.

But now, Li Tong is living in an era of perfect tunes and diction. I don't know the rhythm, I only play mediocre, but I still come out with good works frequently. Are you angry?This is probably talent.

Chapter 0073 Spring River Flower Moon Night

Hearing King Yong'an's explanation, Shen Quanqi was also a little dumbfounded for a while.

This truth is not unreasonable, but it is still somewhat unreasonable under careful inspection.It's like saying, everyone grows with their heart, why is King Yong'an so handsome?I don't know, everyone has the same skeleton, so I just eat some food and grow some meat, and then it becomes like this.

Not to mention whether Shen Quanqi would accept this explanation, anyway, Li Tong didn't prepare anything else.After thinking before and after, you can be careful and restrained a little.But now it was a gamble on the brink of danger, so naturally he didn't think too much.After passing this test, Yu Sheng can explain it slowly.

Nearly an hour later, the music official who went to the Outer Court Taiyue Department had returned, followed by a few foreign monks.

Li Tong didn't know much about ancient religions, and it was difficult to judge the religious status of these foreign monks from their clothing and precepts. But seeing that people had already arrived, he ordered these monks to prepare to use Buddhist chant and Music, and at the same time remove the noisy beard and the like.

As a result, when he played this time, even though Li Tong's own vocal level was not high, he also found that the effect was obviously improved by several grades.Even Shen Quanqi, who was not very interested in these melodies before, became serious when the music played again.

Needless to say, the effect of human voice into music.No matter what kind of noisy sound waves, human hearing is most sensitive to human speech.A piece of melody is pleasant or not, but as long as the human voice is outstanding, it will be much better.

Li Tong also understood that although Shen Quanqi didn't say it directly, to him, his multi-instrument mix is ​​probably similar to listening to electronic music for people who are used to classical music.

Of course, the actual gap is not that big. After all, what Li Tong decides is only the way of playing. As for the real composition of the melody, it is still done by professionals such as Tai Le Cheng Bai Fen, and the bottom line can still be guaranteed.

However, there was no leading voice before, and the melody could not be fully reflected, it was just noisy.But now with the human voice running through it, the rhythm of the whole melody is reflected, although the monks just cover their dantian with their hands and hum in an upbeat manner, they don't know how to match the melody at all.

If you go to nightclubs often, you should feel it. The tune is really noisy and irritating, but as long as someone accompanies the rhythm and screams a few times, it will instantly feel very burning.

After playing a melody, Shen Quanqi's face changed significantly, and he looked at Li Tong with a strange look: "The king's words are not good at rhythm, but his talent is so rare. The voice of Fanbai has been prepared for a long time by Yuefu , but I only practice music for a while, and occasionally perform Buddhist ceremonies, but I don’t know how interesting it is to play with various sounds.”

Although he reminded King Yong'an before, he just felt that it was more in line with the effect that King Yong'an stated, but the voices of Fanbai in Taichang are only very small.After all, Daoism has been emphasized since the imperial dynasty, and since the Empress Dowager came to the imperial court, Buddhist disciples have paid more attention to it, but it has not spread to the upper and lower levels.

Shen Quanqi's young Jinshi, Xie Bei Tai Chang Xie Lvlang, stayed in this position for several years. Although he has been promoted to a member of the Ministry of Officials, he is still in charge of some Taile officials.If he didn't have so many years of experience, he couldn't even think of Yuefu and Fanbei's voice at the first moment.

If he had reservations about Yong'an Wang's melody before, then now he witnessed it with his own eyes. He didn't even know the sound of Fanbai, and he was reminded by himself to introduce harmony music, which instantly made the melody a qualitative improvement. I really have to believe this miracle!

"It's just a trail, it's hard to exaggerate."

Li Tong smiled modestly, and said sincerely: "Today, I am fortunate to be taught by Yuanwai Shen, and I have learned a lot. This "Vientiane" Daqu has a grand intention, but since it was compiled, I have gradually learned less. Mr. Xue is good at teasing and luring me into the matter, but he turned it into a busy one, making me helpless. I don’t know if Mr. Shen has the elegance to guide me to make this happen?”

When Shen Quanqi heard this, he bowed his head and muttered. It is true that he is not involved in foreign court disputes, and he is also a little curious about the strangeness of King Yong'an, not to mention that Xue Huaiyi led this matter. It's a bit contrived.

But he also has some scruples in his heart. One is that Xue Huaiyi's reputation as a scholar is too dirty, two is that the status of King Yong'an is really sensitive, and the third is that he is conceited and talented. If he really wants to present a new song, he can host it. It seems that there is no need to follow The two men get mixed up.

Li Tong has a lot of intentions for this piece of "Vientiane", but he also knows that it is really difficult to complete it by himself. Even with the little scum of his second brother Li Shouli who is barely holding back, the hope is very slim.

Right now, he borrowed Xue Huaiyi's tiger skin and was able to get the support of manpower and material resources from Tai Le Department, but Li Tong still had some doubts about Xue Huaiyi's reliability.

Now there is another talent like Shen Quanqi, whether he succeeds or not, he must try to win him over.Even if the speech has been passed, there is still a shortcoming in the Qubu.

And when we were chatting just now, I also heard from Shen Quanqi that he will also participate in the selection of the big music at the end of the year, and the judges will be brought into the creative team, so that it will be easier to do insider operations.

Shen Quanqi pondered for more than a dozen breaths, and was about to raise his head and refuse, but saw that Yong'an Wang was holding a pen at his desk, and it was inconvenient to speak, so he waited patiently.

"I love the sound, but I have few regrets. Now that I am getting more and more interesting, I can't bear to listen to it. Listening to the sounds of Yuefu, most of them are clichés and old tunes. Looking forward and backward, I think there are many people laughing at my lack of romance today. The madness is unstoppable, and the creation is not a piece of "Vientiane". I just wait for the immediate thing, and I have to renovate it so that the lingering sounds of the Six Dynasties can enter my current sound."

Speaking of this, Li Tong handed the wet paper to Shen Quanqi, and said with a smile: "The lyrics of the two couplets of "Spring River Flower and Moon Night" are not in time to make up, and please give me a small reward from outsiders. Is there any gold thread?" Is Jade Chip worthy of a continuation?"

Shen Quanqi took the paper, his expression changed when he glanced at it, he raised the paper and said in a loud voice, "Is the Queen's resignation successful?"

Li Tong shook his head when he heard the words: "Short talents are sometimes overpowering, and the lyrics of "Vientiane" have been consumed too much, and they still need to be nurtured. If one thing is done, one thing will be accomplished, as if the talent outside the staff has been cultivated for a long time, I am really envious. It's a pity that I can't make it."

Shen Quanqi's face was full of regret, and he looked down at the poems on the paper several times, and finally said: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that my resignation will be disrespectful. In the past, there was no lack of thinking of relying on talents in humble positions. Now seeing the great king Yushu rushing, I feel frivolous." False longing. Follow Yasheng and give what you want, but I'm afraid that if you don't think well, it will affect personnel."

"Yuanwai is too modest. I won't discuss the future in detail for the time being. Let's wait for you and me to be amazed for a while with this song "Vientiane"."

"Moonlight Night on the Spring River" is an old title of the Yuefu, an ancient tune composed by Chen Houzhu, but what really makes it famous is Zhang Ruoxu's "Spring River tide connects the sea level, and the moon rises together with the tide" in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.It was naturally this song that Li Tong used to seduce Shen Quanqi.

Literati and Mo Ke, with both sensuality and sourness, may not be magnanimous.The likes of Shen and Song Dynasties have great names in their poems, but they don't seem to have strong political integrity.In particular, Song Zhiwen killed people because of his poems, which makes people have reservations about the personal virtues of the two who are equally named.

However, not to mention that Li Tong himself is a poor family in terms of integrity, what he values ​​is talent rather than character, and it is expected that Shen Quanqi will not be able to kill him because of his poems, no matter how hard he is than Qiu Shenji?Not to mention that he hasn't written the whole "Moonlight Night on the Spring River".

The first four sentences are teased, if you can't tease it, forget it.Zhong Shaojing's broken halberd also made Li Tong not dare to use too much force on the issue of dealing with foreign ministers.

Even if he didn't know that Shen Quanqi had been leisurely and wealthy in the first half of his life, and that he hadn't been affected until after the Shenlong Revolution, he would not have dared to easily decide whether to flirt with him or not.

Shen Quanqi is so easy to talk, but Li Tong has a good impression of him, and he decides to return to the Institute of Renzhi later, and deletes "Single Seen", which was originally written by Shen Quanqi and is known as the model of Qilu fixed frame, which has been copied and ready to be played.

Most of the time, he is reasonable. Since he is his own, it is not easy to do black hands, and he will copy Song Zhiwen in the future. Anyway, the styles of the two works are similar, and they are confused every day.

With Shen Quanqi's joining, the affairs of Qu Book can be entrusted, and Li Tong can focus on other things instead.

It's not that without Shen Quanqi, this Daqu would definitely not be possible. After all, Tai Lecheng Bai Fenna also has a family background, and his skills such as Kang Duobao are extraordinary.But when it comes to the understanding of Wu Zetian's aesthetic taste, there is no doubt that Shen Quanqi, a close servant and poet, is more sure.

Shen Quanqi's self-reported person is really not modest. Although he has many official positions, most of them are noble, and his job is still to give speeches.When he joined in, the compilation efficiency of the prologue part of Daqu improved several times.After all, there is real material in the belly, just like the efficiency of Li Tong's lyrics.

A very important skill in Kuozhi's new songs is to pick up the leftover sounds.Many ancient tunes and old tunes have been passed down to the present, and only some fragments of tunes remain, but the essence is not lost. It is also one of the daily tasks of Taichang music officials to incorporate them into the tunes and recompile them to give them new life.

Shen Quanqi Jiushi Yuefu's melody reserves are far from comparable to that of Yong'an Wang. The essence of the leftover sounds is compiled and used, and the natural progress has increased dramatically.This method is somewhat similar to Li Tong's copywriting, but Li Tong broke through the limitations of time and space, while Shen Quanqi can only use the front voice, which is still different.

Of course, Shen Quanqi's song collection also has the significance of protecting intangible cultural heritage. From this point of view, Li Tong is really embarrassed to treat him as the same kind.

The lyrics have already been settled, so Li Tongda can concentrate on choreographing and arranging songs.Time passed quickly in the midst of being busy, one day Shen Quanqi suddenly didn't come to the inner teaching workshop, but just sent a message saying that he wanted to attend Luodian and needed to be absent for a few days.

If he was still in the previous state of doing nothing, Li Tong would have to hope that Luoshui would skyrocket and drown a group of monkeys.

But now, I just feel a little bit of emotion about the passing away, how time is not forgiving, unknowingly, they are a few days closer to the end of the Tang Dynasty, and turn to the song and dance arrangement, and I don’t even have the energy to imagine how grand the ceremony will be .

Two or three days after the Luo Dian, Shen Quanqi returned to Neijiaofang to continue compiling the music. Now the music book has reached the breaking stage, and the end is not far away.In fact, the musicians have also completed the rhythm, but Li Tong is still a little unconfident, hoping that Shen Quanqi can check it out a little bit.

Having invested so much time and energy, Shen Quanqi naturally has no reason to refuse this request.

Luodian was on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and on the fifteenth day, Xue Huaiyi, who had not shown up for a long time, came to Neijiaofang again.Li Tong came out to greet him, and he found that Xue Huaiyi's mood seemed to be a little wrong, and his heartstrings were quietly tensed.

Chapter 0074 "Vientiane" is Beautiful

Inspired by Li Tong's words a month ago, Xue Huaiyi decided to lead the new compilation of Daqu, but Xue Huaiyi was in high spirits.

But it is true that he has been busy during this period, among other things, just Mingtang's last point of finishing work, no matter what kind of small mistakes happen to delay the God Emperor's gift, no amount of new repertoire can make up for it.

So after confirming the matter that day, after leaving Neijiaofang, Xue Huaiyi seldom showed up, and occasionally asked people to ask about the progress of the arrangement to show his concern, and he did not return to Neijiaofang until today.

"Although I know Master Xue is busy, but I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I have nowhere to ask for advice. It really makes Shouyi feel a lot of hesitation and fears that we will miss the appointment."

Li Tong strode forward to meet him, with a joyful reunion on his face, but he was thinking in his heart.

Although in his previous life he had no shortage of scenes to deal with in order to make a living, but in this world, hypocrisy and obedience have become a life-saving measure. His expression and thinking are out of touch, and his ability to not interfere with each other has really improved by leaps and bounds.

A face with a smirk, a heart ready to move, hypocrisy, sometimes even he can hardly see himself.

"The king's talent is quite interesting, I know it. I entrust you with the affairs within the talent, so there is nothing to worry about."

Xue Huaiyi laughed. Apart from his usual bright monk clothes, he also wore a felt hat made of wild horse skin, which looked a bit nondescript.

Laughter can best reveal a person's true emotions. Li Tong seldom opens his mouth to laugh, just a faint smile or a hidden smile.

Xue Huaiyi's loud laughter sounded dry and dull to Li Tong's ears, not thick and full.

It's not that he cares about every detail and requires people to treat him the same, but that the big business in front of him is all based on Xue Huaiyi's tiger skin, and his true mentality directly affects whether the matter can go on.

Although aware of the change in Xue Huaiyi's mood, Li Tong remained calm, and only seriously explained to him the process of compiling the Daqu, and introduced Shen Quanqi, who had heard the news, to Xue Huaiyi, and praised Shen Quanqi's work in it. contribution made.

Hearing that the compiling of Daqu had come to an end, Xue Huaiyi's expression was obviously much better, and his laughter became more confident, especially when he saw that Shen Quanqi had joined in, and his smile was even better: "Scholar Shen is also recruited by the king. Is there any reason why this new song should not be beautiful and amazing?"

Shen Quan has been a courtier for a long time, Xue Huaiyi naturally knows him, but that's not all.

In Wu Zhou Dynasty, face-to-face industry is actually very different before and after.Xue Huaiyi was the first to be favored, and he meant even more to Wu Zetian. In addition to being a partner, he was also a right-hand man in politics. Many of the roles he played in the Wu Zhou revolution were irreplaceable.

As for the Imperial Physician Shen Nanqiu, she was just a private plaything on the couch, with almost no sense of existence.

The Zhang brothers in the later period are not so much male favorites as they are little toys for old people, reminiscing about their youth, and little tools for provoking the situation by the way.
