Chapter 168 The beginning of Di Qing’s defense battle
"What Liu Qishu loved most in his life was to compose new lyrics, give new sounds, and sing new songs. He was often trapped by the constraints of the tunes. He deeply hated that his lyrics did not express his feelings and could not fully relax his mind." After sorting out her thoughts, Du Qingshuang said:
His eyes flashed and he said, "If Uncle Liu Qi were still here, he would definitely be astonished to the young master."
Liu Yong was shocked to be a heavenly being. This evaluation reached the extreme. Chen Ke laughed and said: "I am just a fancier at best. Du Xingshou has to know people with his eyes."
"To be able to say such words that break the stereotypes and open up the world," Du Qingshuang said seriously: "Young Master is a man of heaven."
"I mean if you are invincible in the world, there is nothing you can do if you do it." Chen Ke said with a smile: "What's more, for two hundred years, people have been accustomed to singing according to the score. Even Liu Qigong has not violated it and rashly changed the tradition.
It’s hard to say whether it’s good or bad for Du Xingshou.”
"..." Du Qingshuang nodded and said softly: "Don't talk about others, even Qingshuang is not sure whether it will work."
"Yes." Chen Ke nodded and said with a smile: "So the best way is to forget this poem and treat it as if it never appeared." Chen Ke never imagined that bringing the poems of later generations to the Song Dynasty would cause so much controversy.
Trouble... As an author, he has mixed reputations and reputations. Those who praise him say that his literary talent is no less than Liu Qi's, while those who scold him say that he doesn't even understand the most basic rhythm of lyrics, and he still imitates other people's lyrics...
However, for a music lover like Du Qingshuang, it is a great torture to not be able to sing songs. What's more, a brand new realm is looming in front of her eyes, how can she not try it?
"No." Du Qingshuang shook her head firmly, bowed deeply to Chen Ke and said, "I sincerely ask you to accept me as your disciple and learn how to compose music and lyrics."
"Hey..." Chen Ke shook his head and laughed: "You are worshiping the wrong temple. I am a fake person who only talks but does not practice."
"The master brings you in, and learning is up to you." Du Qingshuang shook his head and said: "Even if you can't learn it, it's because the disciple is stupid and doesn't do the master's work."
"I really can't teach you." Chen Ke smiled bitterly and said, "If I could, who wouldn't want to have a beautiful female disciple?"
"That's right, I want to become a disciple so rashly," Du Qingshuang blushed and lowered her head: "It's really too frivolous."
"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean that." Chen Ke waved his hand and said: "In short, if you can't teach me, you can't teach me. If you think about it this way, you will definitely be better than me."
"..." Du Qingshuang lowered her head and said nothing. Chen Ke thought she had given up. Unexpectedly, after a while, she raised her head again and said firmly: "Master, are you testing my sincerity? The disciple will let the master see my determination."
of."
"Alas..." Chen Ke said helplessly, if I could teach you, how could I miss this opportunity to have a romantic relationship?
The most envied man among men in the Song Dynasty was Liu Yong, and Chen Ke was no exception. Du Qingshuang, an courtesan who was both talented in sex and had a cold appearance, was exactly the type of man that men wanted to conquer most but couldn’t bear to hurt. Chen Ke was not a fake
Taoism is so humble just to avoid self-defeating.
"You don't want to become a disciple either." Chen Ke thought for a moment and said, "Let's just make friends through music. When we have time in the future, we can learn from each other."
"Just follow Master's instructions." Du Qingshuang saw that he finally relented and nodded happily.
"Don't call me master, I'm not that old." Chen Ke shook his head and smiled.
"Then, let's call him Young Master..."
"Yeah." Chen Ke nodded and said, "Except for master, everyone can call him whatever he wants." In fact, his mentality is very dark. If he establishes the status of master and apprentice, what else will he do in the future? So he definitely can't be this master.
"Young master, please don't call me everyone. I can't bear the responsibility in front of you." Du Qingshuang pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Just call me Qingshuang."
"Okay, Qingshuang." Chen Ke narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I wish you will become a clan member as soon as possible."
"Young master, you are joking." Du Qingshuang lowered her head and smiled lightly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Du Xingshou's enthusiasm for music definitely exceeded Chen Ke's imagination. With her busy performance schedule, she would appear in front of Chen Ke every one or two days at most, asking him for knowledge on music theory...
Although Chen Ke opened a window for her, Du Qingshuang's vision was still dark and she needed Chen Ke to point her in the direction.
In front of the singers, Chen Ke is not without his own talents. He has two things to offer, one is music theory. He told Du Qingshuang that the essence of self-made music lies in extracting the rhythm for writing from the inherent melody of the old lyrics.
Standards, as well as the melody direction and pattern standards used to measure the music. In this way, whenever new words come out, the old melody will no longer be applied, but according to the rhythm of the new words and the basic melody extracted from the original melody of the word card, a separate
Compose new music.
In this way, the new music is only suitable for specific words and is not as universal as it was at the beginning. However, it will be perfectly integrated with the words and achieve a state of blending of words and music. Masters who have mastered the rules of music composition can compose
The combination of music and words is very good. It can take care of the rhythm and add the special emotions contained in the words. There is no problem of music harming the expression of word meaning.
This is knowledge that has been tested by history, and Chen Ke is not afraid of misleading others. With his guidance, Du Qingshuang can make a clear target and move forward on the right path. In a few days, he can grasp the basic melody of "Mulan Ci"
It's out, but it's not the difficulty.
The difficulty is how to compose a new special melody according to the personality of each word, which involves a singing problem. With the inherent singing tune, you know the pronunciation of the words, and you can naturally compose the corresponding melody. However, in the Song Dynasty
There was no singing concept yet, so Chen Ke had to help Du Qingshuang create it.
As for the quality of singing, articulation is the first priority, and it must be carefully considered one by one to ensure that it is right. Otherwise, no matter how beautiful the singing is, it will not be worthy of the song. At this time, phonology must be introduced, thinking
If you want the characters to have a correct accent, you must use the fanqie method to cut the sounds, and pay attention to the pronunciation of the singing characters one by one to make sure they are in the right tone.
In this era when almost no one was teaching elementary school, Chen Ke was almost the best phoneticologist in the Song Dynasty, so Du Qingshuang's dependence on him did not decrease with time, but became even greater.
The relationship between the two gradually became familiar and natural from being stiff and polite at the beginning.
On this day, it finally stopped raining. Chen Ke was sitting in the bow of the boat in a daze when Du Qingshuang came again and presented a Ru kiln porcelain vase to him like a treasure.
"What is this?" Chen Ke took it over, opened it, and saw the familiar yellow-brown tea leaves, and immediately said with joy: "You actually fried it!"
"According to the master's instructions, the three-step method of making tea is to make green tea, simmer, roll, and dry." Du Qingshuang said, "I have tried it many times, but this time I am satisfied."
"Wait a minute, I'll boil the water," Chen Ke jumped up from his seat and said, "Try the tea made by Qing Shuang himself."
"I'll do it." Du Qingshuang blushed slightly. The steps before and after were okay. The middle step required kneading with both hands. Now it's really shameful for a man to taste it. However, he can repay the other party with this.
, she was willing to do so. She said, lifting a sealed clay pot: "This is spring water taken from Qingyun Mountain outside the city."
"Okay." Chen Ke said with a smile: "Then I'll wait and taste it." Then he sat on the bed in a grand manner, listening to Du Qingshuang behind him, pouring water and boiling water. He couldn't help but laugh, life is really **
*Beautiful...if only that annoying thing didn't happen.
Unfortunately, it happened...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just yesterday, the second shoe fell on the ground, and the proposal to remove Di Qing was finally placed in front of the emperor.
It was not proposed by a specific person, but by the collective proposal of Zhongshu Province. This move is very vicious... It shows that it is not a certain person who has trouble with Di Qing, but everyone said so... This is very rare, because even Ding Wei still has three
Good friends, if they don't want to be represented, they can't make proposals in the name of the collective.
How miserable was Di Qing's life? No one in Zhongshu Province could speak for him... What's even more strange is that despite the thousands of words he had written in Zhongshu Province, they couldn't find a single specific crime against him. They were all "people's words."
...Based on these hearsay evidences, Zhongshu Sheng asked the emperor to remove a conscientious and flawless minister of the West Government. The reason was still the shameless statement - there are many people saying this, although it is not credible, it should be treated as a worry-free
, It is better to bear the youth than to bear the country!
Finally, Zhongshu Sheng's proposal was not to let Di Qing be the privy envoy anymore, but to grant him the title of military envoy to two towns and let him go to the local level...
Upon receiving this proposal, the official was not surprised. He asked Di Qing to be summoned and asked him to read the memorial on the spot... In fact, the emperor's psychology was already understandable, but Di Qing's thoughts remained unchanged.
He was always the good man who stood outside Donghua Gate, watching the roll call of the top pick, and vowed to be more glorious than the other person.
He is a hero, a passionate soldier, General Mian Nirvana who dares to be the first and never gives up! He relied on his own efforts, which was a hundred times harder than others, to get here step by step. Why give up?
He handed the memorial to the eunuch, bowed deeply to the official's family, then raised his head and said solemnly: "It's not fair for me to be under the command of two towns for no merit, and to be exiled from the outer vassal for no crime!" The self-effacement of the previous sentence,
It's just a desire to suppress and advance first. After a hundred battles, he was dismissed without guilt. I don't accept it!
When Di Qing raised his head, Zhao Zhen saw the golden seal on his face, and suddenly remembered the past scenes... He couldn't help but feel ashamed for his wavering, so he calmed Di Qing softly and asked him to go back first: "Things will be settled soon."
Leave it to me to handle it, so that I won’t let you feel wronged.”
Today is the God of Wealth Festival. I wish everyone a lot of wealth and good luck, and I also wish us a speedy discharge from the hospital... No more tonight.
