Baidi Chunshen

Unexpectedly, Ma Liang could not only speak barbaric language.They can also sing the songs of Ba people, the ancestors of Wuxi Man, in barbarian language:

People living in Wuxi.I heard that you are the descendants of the Ba people.

Do you know the story of your ancestors?

You were originally descendants of Fuxi.When King Wu defeated Zhou, he sang and danced, and the Ba people helped King Wu of Zhou to defeat the wicked Shang Zhou.

They dance the Bayu dance. They are good at singing and dancing, brave and wise at war.

The Zhou family declined, and the Ba people were forced by Chu to move westward to Shu, just like Soochow oppressing you now.

Qin State destroyed Ba State.Since then, the Ba Kingdom has ceased to exist...but the Ba people are still in Sichuan, multiplying from generation to generation.

I went to Shu under Emperor Gao, led the Ba people to destroy the tyrannical state of Qin, and killed Xiang Yu of the state of Chu.Establish the Han Dynasty.

It was overthrown in the 200th year of the former Han Dynasty, and Emperor Guangwu sent Ma Yuan to come.

And you also sincerely surrender and help him rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.

The Later Han Dynasty fell in 200 years. Fortunately, General Zuo of the Han Dynasty ruled Jingzhou, and Yi Han was happy.

He proclaimed himself emperor in the middle of Shu and benefited the two rivers.You people from Ba and Wuling have all been educated by him.

Have you forgotten the great deeds of our ancestors, who were divine, literary and holy, and who assisted me?

Have you forgotten the kindness of the great Han, the sages, the late emperors, and your majesty today?

Why did the Son of Heaven send envoys to help you fight against Wu Xinghan, but you imprisoned him here?

This lyric was written by Ma Liang himself, and he sang it in barbaric language.The two Habayashi brothers couldn't understand a word.I only feel that Ma Liang's piano sound is moving, and his singing voice is also melodious and clear.Ma Liang sang repeatedly, and immediately the people around the stilted building opened their windows or went out to listen.Ma Liang's barbarian pronunciation is not accurate, and because he has lived in Chengdu for a long time and studied with the Ba people, the Ba people's accent has infiltrated.

"The guests have songs in Yingzhong, the first ones are "Xiali" and "Baren", and there are thousands of people who belong to the middle school and make peace; they are "Yang'a" and "Xiaolu", and the number of people who belong to the middle school and make peace Hundreds of people; for "Yangchun" and "Bai Xue", there are only a few dozen people who belong to the middle school and make peace; introducing merchants and carving feathers, mixed with exiles, and only a few people who belong to the middle school and make peace. It is his song Migao, It is peaceful and widowed."

People from Xialiba have been popular folk songs in Chudi since the Warring States Period.This is even more so in Wuxi Man.Because they were originally descendants of the Ba people.Ma Liang loved folk songs. When he played the piano and sang in Shu, many common people often sang along.Liu Bei once joked that what Kong Ming liked was Yangchun Baixue and elegant voice.But what Ji Chang likes is the voice of Zheng Wei, a native of Xialiba.This statement is indeed true, but Ma Liang's piano skills were taught by Zhuge Liang.

"It's like Qu Yuan and Song Yu." Liu Bei laughed.At that time, the ministers were in the hall to discuss the music and dance in the temple. Liu Bei looked at Ma Liang with a smile and praised him for his talent as Sima Xiangru.And Ma Liang smiled and bowed to Zhuge Liang, calling him Mr.It made everyone laugh.I saw Zhuge Liang shaking his feather fan lightly, and said with a smile: "The voice of Zheng and Wei was despised by the sage Confucius. But the reason why it is called the voice of the subjugated country is that the land of Zheng and Wei was inhabited by the survivors of the Shang Dynasty. It entertains people by offering sacrifices to gods, so it is widely loved by people. It is not that Liang does not like Zheng Wei's voice, but he loves elegant music more than that, so he taught it to Ji Chang together. Ji Changfei cannot be elegant music, but just likes In comparison, he prefers Xinle."

"This is the same as Xiaozhi, isn't it?" Liu Bei looked at Fazheng beside him with a smile: "I heard that Xiaozhi once went to Ji Chang's mansion just to hear the sound of Zheng Wei he played."

"Hahahaha..." All the officials laughed.

"What about my lord?" Fazheng asked Liu Bei with a smile, "What do you like to hear, my lord?"

Liu Bei said with a smile: "When I was young, I was the same as Ji Chang, and I liked new music more. But after meeting Kong Ming, he explained to Gu the meaning of elegant and music education, and he learned a few things about how a sage governs the country. So, Gu also learned to appreciate elegance. Music." He said, looking at Zhuge Liang gently: "As long as it is a song played by the military division, everyone will love to listen to it."

Zhuge Liang sighed with a smile: "Compared with the new music, there is no distinction between the high and the low. The reason why Liang likes the elegant music is because of its ability to educate and control chaos. If the strong do not invade the weak, and the world is in great order, why not sing and dance every day, playing the voice of Zheng and Wei?"

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang with a smile, his brows and eyes were full of warmth.The world is peaceful, the rivers and seas are clear, and even a world where there is no need to honor the elegant music and despise the sound of Zheng, what an illusory dream.But with his Kong Ming by his side, it seems that he is no longer far away.Zhuge Liang has such a firm belief and peerless talent to make all these come true one by one.That is their common dream.

At this moment, the people at the foot of Hutou Mountain listened to Ma Liang's singing, and after a while, they all sang together.It didn't take long before it reached the ears of the village elders.

The barbarian elder with all white beard and hair came to hang his feet downstairs with a stick, listened for a while, and finally sighed: "This is the real Ba dialect. He came from the middle of Shu, so it can't be fake. What kind of messenger is this! Familiar with the ancient stories of our family, and can sing such touching tunes."

He immediately sent someone to report to Sha Moke, the barbarian king.Ma Liang stopped the string song, put down the stringer, and looked at the two Habayashiro with a smile.The two brothers felt that Ma Liang's smiling face was more dazzling than the bright sun outside the window.

But Wen Ma Liang sighed: "Music is actually a chapter, and fighting is fighting. Ritual and music can stop fighting, believe it! Xiangliang learned the piano with his elder brother since he was a child, and later he also played a piece of Yaoqin. When he first saw Your Majesty, he had to play together. The orchestral strings are perfect, the tone of the tooth is wide, good... this life is not in vain!"

***

Ma Liang sang "The People of Xialiba" in barbarian language, which shocked the people of Wuxi in the whole village.When the barbarians opened the door of the stilted building to greet Ma Liang and the three of them, the common people and the elders gathered around and stretched their necks to watch this special envoy from the Han Dynasty.But I saw that the Han envoy was dressed in Han family clothes, although he was young and open-minded, his steps were prudent, and his smile was gentle.Even if you don't hold a chastity or hold a sword, you have already shown the dignity of a country.

The barbarian king Shamoke heard the elder's report, and at this time he had already come to greet him on horseback.Although he was born tall and majestic, with a bloody face and prominent blue eyes, he did not look like a Han citizen, but he admired Wanghua for a long time and liked the customs of the Han Dynasty. When he saw Ma Liang from afar, he couldn't help sighing to the left and right: "A real countryman."

When he got off the horse, he approached Ma Liang and held Ma Liang's hand affectionately, and said with a smile, "Han envoy, you don't hold the ceremony, and you don't hold the seal. I will not receive you with the usual etiquette. You If you come to our village, you will be my guest. You don't mind, do you?"

Both Habayashi frowned.How honorable the waiter is, the whole Han Kingdom, dare to pull Ma Liang's hand directly, that is, his majesty and the prime minister.Even the Ma brothers didn't dare to get too close in front of outsiders because they respected Ma Liang.

Unexpectedly, Ma Liang didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't like to treat people with courtesy. If Your Majesty sees Your Majesty, he will definitely speculate."

Sha Moke looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Hahaha... Han envoy, please!"

Sha Moke welcomed Ma Liang to the main hall of the village and sat down. Then he smiled and asked: "Master Ma, why did you sneak here alone? Not only did you forget to bring the soldiers and horses, but you also forgot to bring the gold and silver Shu brocade. The general did not recognize him." You are an envoy of the Han Dynasty and have treated you badly. This king is here to apologize for him."

The two Habayashis were a little angrily, asking for gold, silver and Sichuan brocade, it was really rude...!

Ma Liang got up and walked in the room: "Your Majesty wants gold and silver rewards from me, but at this time, it is not I who ask His Majesty, but His Majesty asks me. I am here to help His Majesty."

Sha Moke frowned, all the barbarians also withdrew their smiles.I thought that although the envoy of the Han Dynasty had a handsome appearance and a gentle temperament, he was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Imagine, my lord, you are trapped in this small village in the mountains at this time, and countless people may be reduced to mercenaries and serfs at any time. If you want to live a free life in the mountains and fields, I am afraid that you will not be able to. Your lord will end up here today, right? Because there is no excellent commander to help you unite the army? There is no eloquent messenger to unite the elders of the tribes for you?"

"This..." Samoke looked at Ma Liang in a daze.The other party put all his troubles on the table and said that he had to follow Ma Liang to get to the point.

But Ma Liang said again: "Liang came here without bringing gold, silver, Shu brocade, or soldiers. It violated His Majesty's original intention. Our Han army is only [-] in the Zigui battlefield. The Wu people have [-] troops, and they are supported by domestic troops." No end. At this time, I will take away the soldiers and horses again. Although I can protect myself, I feel uneasy for Your Majesty, so I am willing to take the risk and come here alone. Second, the king," Ma Liang looked at Shamoke: "Liang knows the king I adore Wanghua, so I came here, and I don’t want to teach the king to violate the teachings of the previous kings: the people of the big man will not be rewarded if they have no merit. If the king can raise his troops to go north to Mount Yi, connect with his majesty, and fight against the evil together, it will definitely be shocking. Take Lu Xun and mobilize the Wu army! Then I will recover Jingzhou, and the people of all ministries will be free from the violence of the Wu people, and they will live and work in peace and contentment from then on. The king has made great achievements, and he was awarded the title of the general by my great man. It is no problem! "

Shamoke became excited, and stood up against the table: "Okay! But if my king leads his troops to the north, who will guard the five streams for me? If the Wu people invade again, who will the people rely on?!"

Ma Liang smiled: "I'm staying here to temporarily take military photos for the king. In the three counties of Wuling, Lingling, and Guiyang, there are many big men, people, officials, and officials who surrendered due to the situation, and they are unwilling to serve Sun Quan in their hearts. I should say that Order him to return to His Majesty. As for the elders of the tribes in Linggui and Wuxi, let me tell you that they must unite the forces of the three counties and go straight to Changsha! Then join forces with Your Majesty and take the head of Sun Quan!"

Sha Moke's heart was surging, he clapped his hands violently, and turned to look at the barbarian elders in the hall: "After I lead the soldiers away, the horse servant will lead you, can you rest assured?"

The elders all laughed: "The envoys of the Han Dynasty can sing our songs and speak our language.
