He planted peonies in the Tang Dynasty

"Mr. Su Xiaolang wants to invite me to drink?"

In the office, those little officials who used to make things difficult when signing the contract still didn't let go this time, and put down their pens in unison: "How can you just invite Gu Lang? And you, Uncle Cui, should you invite me? Exactly, should I invite you?" Gu Yue continued to laugh and said, "Xiao Langjun is not sensible, so the few adults in front of him should be invited the most."

Ye Nu clenched her purse, which was thinner than herself, and finally plucked up the courage to say what she had memorized: "Gu Lang, I will invite you, and I will invite you every month from now on. You have no relatives or reasons with me, and you have always taken care of me. , I recognize you."

Gu Yue looked pleased, and when he patted the official case of the little official next to him, the pen and paper trembled: "Mr. Su Xiaolang has a bright heart, and he speaks pearls, hey, I'm the one who invited you, and you won't accept it?" The little official cupped his hands and said, "" admire."

All jokes aside, Ye Nu waited for a while at the gate of the Tai Le Department, and Gu Yue hurried over, still with a kind and gentle smile on his face.The two first went to Changchun residence, settled the money for the winter jacket in front of Liniang, and then went to Lihua Pavilion.

Lihua Pavilion is famous for its roasted pear wine. Just after serving a few ordinary dishes, a young wine lady walked into the room with a pear plate, purple orchid skirt, pear flower tinsel, and the corners of her eyes were painted with light golden slanting red. smiling.

Ye Nu shrugged: "It's also the first time I've come here." Gu Yue rolled up his sleeves and poured wine: "When I see a woman, I'm nervous and useless. Come, I'll teach you something." Ye Nu said, "Huh?" Gu Yue said : "Alcohol, you can't ask for nothing."

Inadvertently, Ye Nu's monthly money was only enough for two people, but after a cup of words, Gu Yue talked about many secrets in Tai Le Department.For example, Li Shengping went to the palace at noon every day to reconcile the rhythm of the clock, and had an audience with the emperor three days in advance of important events, and was obsessed with the rhythm. They have a close relationship. They have a foreign house in the south of the city and raise [-] female musicians in the teaching workshop.

Suddenly, Gu Yue knocked on the wine glass again: "At the end of the year, Taichang Temple's two assessment departments, the winter courtyard's song is "Taiping Le"." Ye Nu said: "We haven't learned this song yet." Gu Yue laughed Smile: "Don't be a good boy, drink."

It was only then that Ye Nu realized that it was the way, and in a moment of anxiety, he spat out food: "Obviously I want to thank you, how do you say this, I don't drink anymore, the master taught me earlier..." Gu Yue laughed and said: "Life is alive. , and no one knows who."

The table was covered with golden rice grains, Ye Nu drank a few more glasses of wine, the more she understood in her heart, the less shy she was on her face, she smiled like a pear blossom, picked up a rag to wipe off the mess just now: ""Tai Ping Le" ",remember."

The wine maid's expression was unwavering, only a pair of skillful hands were handling two pears—the crispy pears that had been pitted, sprinkled with frosting sugar three times until they were [-]% full, and then added a candied date, which was "Fu Zhi" The meaning of pear jujube is as good as the book.

Then bake over a charcoal fire, put the pears on the rack, sometimes close to the fire, sometimes far away, for a quarter of an hour, until the surface is thin and crispy, and the frosting sugar inside is melted, then put it in a jade bowl, and immerse it in the fermented rice to cool down.

"The Shaochun in Lihua Pavilion is nothing more than that, and the Shaochun in Jiannan is nothing more than that." Ye Nu's face was ruddy, full of interest, and he began to raise his glass to toast, "Gu Lang, today we don't Don't get drunk."

"Whoever doesn't get drunk with you won't go home, the spring wine is very strong, just enough." Gu Yue took the jade bowl, put it in front of himself to cool it down, and picked up the silver spoon in one hand, "I'll eat pears, I don't care about you, it's up to you. "

Ye Nu said anxiously: "I'm not drunk, and I want to play a song for you." Gu Yue shook his head, scooped up a spoonful of thick pear meat, and stuffed it into Ye Nu's mouth: "Okay, don't be brave, Even if I drink two or three jars, I will get dizzy."

At that moment, the sweet pear juice slid over the coating of the tongue, Ye Nu's whole body was crisp, and his expression rose.In fact, he was really not drunk, but just tasted the taste of treats for the first time, and stole a little fishy, ​​even if he spent a lot of money, he was very happy.

"Jiu Niang, borrow your pipa." Regardless of the expression on the other side, Ye Nu opened his mouth to call Yuniang, while opening all the windows, "Today impromptu play a song "Su Xiaolang respects Gu Lang in Lihua Pavilion" .”

A melody of Shang Tune dances on the exquisite five-stringed strings, attracting passers-by to linger. No one can tell the title of the tune, but they are immediately hooked by the cheerful melody. There are even dancers from brothels in front of the street singing along. skirt.

It was the first time for Ye Nu to try the cheerful Dashi tune of Shangyin. His fingering was not yet formed, and he often leaked or lost his tone, but he was not afraid of making mistakes. happy.

Gu Yue propped one arm by the window, his eyes reflected the trembling strings of the pipa.Suddenly, Ye Nu stopped his strings and made a grimace: "Does it sound good?" Gu Yue nodded.Ye Nu stopped smiling, and was about to withdraw her hand when Gu Yue grabbed her.

"It's okay to hurt your hand. He Lian is like this, Meng Yue is like this, and Xu Kuo is like this." Ye Nu turned his face and said, "And Lin Zhenzhen, it's probably the same. Who dares to say that he is not good? The method can better show the tension of the tune."

Gu Yue opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but didn't say anything. He drank the wine in the altar by himself, and his eyes drifted to the busy traffic outside the window. Even though Ye Nu pulled back the one full of crystal blood bubbles, it was pitiful but helpless. tiny hand.

Since the title was not corrected, within half a month, the song "Eating Pears" was overwhelmed by thousands of new songs written by people passing by in the East City. No one remembered who Su Xiaolang was or who Gu Lang was.

Just overnight, all the officials in the Spring Courtyard of the Taile Department knew that Mr. Su Xiaolang was a romantic man who quenched his thirst with boiled spring wine and would not pour it down for two or three jars.

Ye Nu also didn't want to disappoint Gu Yue, and while practicing fingering with the step-by-step Han Changjun, he secretly crouched behind the door of Xia Yuan to observe the Daqu of sitting and standing Erbuki.Although he is illiterate, his ears are very sensitive, and he can hear the stories in the melody. No matter whether it is elegant or popular, no matter whether it is in the Central Plains or the Western Regions, as long as he has heard it and thinks it sounds good, he will never forget it again.

For example, "Taiping Le" by Libu Ji, also known as "Wufang Shizi Dance", when the chorus of more than a dozen musical instruments comes out, he can see the five colorful lions of Tianzhu in the Kunlun elephant dancers through the door. The picture of jumping in the rope whisk.

For example, in "An Le", the musicians form a square formation, and the eighty dancers carve wood as faces, howling dogs and animal ears, and decorate them with gold, with vertical lines as hair, painted coats and fur hats, and the dancing postures are like Qiang beards. The shape symbolizes the stability and stability of the city.

Another example is "Bird Song Long Live Music", which was made during the period of Empress Dowager Wu. Because the birds raised in the palace at that time could imitate human words, they were often called long live. A crown of bright feathers.

There are also works made by the Holy One himself, such as "Light Sacred Music" and "Longchi Music" in praise of Wang Ye's prosperity, and "Xiao Po Array Music" for Qingxi's expedition to Tubo. People are fascinated.

In this way, Ye Nu gradually fell in love with court dance music. He wandered in all kinds of big songs, comprehended the music theory quickly, and dared not talk nonsense to others. He only carved his insights into symbols that he could understand and buried them in the garden. Beside the tree, I hope that one day I can compose an immortal Daqu that will be spread all over the world.
