Chapter 44 A song 'Red Mansions' stunning the Qing Dynasty 2
There is no way to defend it, it seems that the more you apply it, the darker it gets.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) sneered: "Are you able to understand and discuss the princess's affairs?"
This is a bit of a stretch.
Just when Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was embarrassed, Princess Jianning came over gracefully with a group of people.
He walked up to Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) and said with a low eyebrow: "Master Hou, you'd better go back with me. I'll risk everything for you."
Facts speak louder than words. It turned out to be Mr. Xiao Jia who was pursued by the princess.
Everyone smiled knowingly.
Things about princesses always make people think about them, and at the same time they are full of tolerance and understanding.
How bad would a man be who could make a noble princess put down all her dignity and pursue her?
A slap in the face or not, when Princess Jianning arrived, Wu Yingqi and the others had nothing to say.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) waved her hand. Princess Jianning originally wanted to do something else, but upon seeing this, she whispered a few words in Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi)'s ear and then went back obediently.
Is this also possible?
It seems that no explanation is needed, just read this article.
While everyone was applauding and hooting, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was secretly surprised in his heart.
Because what Princess Jianning said to Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) just now was, "This Liu Rushi looks very much like... an old person in the palace. Even though she deliberately changed her appearance, I can still tell...
But she won’t be that young…maybe it’s not her.”
The "old person in the palace" mentioned by Princess Jianning is Dong E's concubine Dong Xiaowan.
Everyone knows that Princess Jianning has been obsessed with Concubine Dong E since she was a child.
"If Concubine Dong E, who was born in 1639, was still alive, she would already be in her early 30s... No matter how well-maintained a 30-year-old woman is, she can't compare with a young woman like Liu Rushi. This Liu Rushi's skin is so supple and elastic.
...a pair of big, watery eyes. When looking at people, she is affectionate and a little shy, and there is a hint of wildness hidden in her shyness... This is a woman who makes men all over the world obsessed with her... Maybe there are charming little women.
Such characteristics."
Just when Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was daydreaming.
"Ding ding dong dong..."
The sound of the guqin came from the first boat, and a young woman dressed exactly like "Liu Rushi" was playing the guqin.
The sound of the piano was as exciting as the waves crashing on the shore, and the song "Ambush from Flying Daggers" was played.
Wu Yingqi smiled and said: "What a beautiful piano. This should be the famous Jiaowei Qin. I didn't expect it to appear here. The sound of the piano is elegant, and the person is even more beautiful."
Then Wu Yingqi turned around and said to Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi): "The wealthy and noble Hou Gaoren Yaya should know the origin of Jiao Weiqin, right?"
This bothered Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) because he really hadn't done any homework in this area.
If you want to talk about China's famous guqin music, Baoyu can still be counted among the treasures.
"Mountains and flowing water", "Xiaoxiang water clouds", "Three Plum Blossom Alleys", "Yangguan Three Layers", "Fishing Boat Sings Late", "Fishermen and Woodcutter Questions and Answers", "Eighteen Beats of Hujia", "Guangling San", "Pingsha"
"Falling Wild Geese", "Yangchun White Snow". Just hearing these names will make you fascinated. It is this kind of ancient music that best embodies the beauty of Chinese charm.
As for the musical instrument he plays, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) really pays little attention to it.
Just when Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was embarrassed again, a tall young man in a green shirt walked through the crowd and walked over.
He is Mr. Nalan Xingde.
When Master Nalan came to Yangzhou, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) knew about it.
He is "lurking" in the crowd, and Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) also knows it.
But he didn't know the purpose of his trip.
Mr. Nalan cupped his hands towards Baoyu (burning small stone), then turned around and said to Wu Yingqi with his head held high: "I am Nalan Rongruo. There are four famous qin in ancient China, which refers to the bell of Duke Huan of Qi.
King Zhuang of Chu's Yaoliang, Sima Xiangru's Green Qi and Cai Yong's Jiaowei. This Jiaowei Qin is one of the four famous qins in ancient China. Compared with the other three qins, the Jiaowei Qin's name is straightforward and unpretentious.
, but its life experience is unusual, because this Qin was created by Cai Yong of the Eastern Han Dynasty. "Book of the Later Han Dynasty·Cai Yong Biography" records that "there are people in Wu who burn tung trees for plowing, and they hear the sound of fire. Knowing the good wood,
It was cut into a qin at the request, and it had a beautiful sound, but its tail was still burnt, so it was called Jiaowei Qinyan at that time. Later, this qin was called Jiaotong."
Mr. Nalan talked eloquently, "Mom, it's good to be knowledgeable."
But it seemed that Wu Yingqi didn't want to let Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) go. He cupped his hands towards Master Nalan and said, "Master Nalan's talents are known to the world, but I don't know if the person opposite you... is a deceiver and a thief."
I don’t even know allusions like this... Hahahaha... funny, funny..."
Grandma’s legs are so despising.
And everyone was looking longingly at the Yangzhou magistrate in front of his legs.
"Liu Rushi" nearby was looking up and down at Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi).
"This is a contest of knowledge. You must not lose your temper... When you have a great beauty around you, you must not lose your grace." Baoyu thought to himself while accompanying Liu Rushi to the "First Painted Boat".
I saw a child in the crowd peeling an egg, and an idea came to me.
Walking over to the rhythm of "Ambush from Flying Daggers", he took out a thousand taels of silver note from his sleeve pocket and said: "Kid, can you sell me your chicken? For one thousand taels of silver, you
Make a lot of money."
The young boy put the egg directly into Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi)'s hand and said: "No money, big brother, if you are hungry, just eat it."
"I didn't expect you to be so sensible at such a young age... This bank note is a reward for you."
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) held up a half-peeled egg and said: "Chickens are good things, and everyone likes to eat them. But I want to ask everyone, when you eat chickens, do you think about which chicken the chickens were born from?"
Of course not! This principle can be extrapolated to the guqin... The sound of the guqin is elegant, we love to listen to it and play it, and that is enough. Focusing on the music is the highest state of listening to the qin."
This "chicken piano" theory immediately won rounds of applause from the audience.
But Wu Yingqi didn't want to let Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) go at all, and said to the audience: "Master Xiao Jia just said that the highest level of piano is to be able to listen and play, so how about asking Mr. Xiao Jia to play a song for us?
?”
This is a naked provocation and insult.
It's a bit too bullying to ask a marquis or a magistrate to play music for you.
However, this "pit" was indeed dug by Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) himself, and he cannot blame anyone.
Liu Rushi watched quietly, Master Nalan was worried.
Ever since I met Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi), I have never seen him play the piano... Isn't this like digging a hole for myself and jumping into it?
