Chen Cheng said in surprise: "Oh, what's wrong? Bo Dao can tell you directly, so I can correct it."
Yan Zhong picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "With wine and meat, how can there be no singing and dancing?"
Yang Qiu also laughed loudly, patted the table in front of him, and shouted: "That's right, that's right, I just said something doesn't feel right!"
Xu Chao glanced at Yang Qiu with an expression of disgust. He hated these vulgar warriors who didn't know their last names after drinking too much. As for Yan Shangshu, they said "it's a celebrity who is naturally romantic", how could it be like Yang Qiu?
What kind of vulgar guy can compare?
Lu Fang looked across and saw that Zhao Yun was still in a majestic manner. He had already noticed that Zhao Zilong didn't drink much, but he ate a lot of food. Out of some kind of comparison, Lu Fang didn't drink much either, and now he ate
My stomach was bloated, but I still stayed quite awake.
Chen Cheng smiled at Yan Zhong and said, "It's not like you don't know that I don't have any dancers or musicians here. Last time someone sent some beauties over, weren't they all sent to your mansion?"
Yan Zhong stroked his beard and said proudly: "I have asked someone to train them for a long time, and they have learned how to play, play and sing. Since there are no dancing girls in the prince's house, why not call them here to help everyone?
Xing, how about it?"
Without waiting for anyone else to answer, he shouted loudly to the tooth soldiers beside him: "Go, send a few people to the old man's house to pick up the dancers."
However, the tooth soldiers just pretended not to hear what he said. The food was served when it was time to serve, the wine was poured when the wine was poured, and the others stood under the eaves of the corridor, motionless. Chen Cheng smiled and said: "
Bo Dao, you drank too much and are a little drunk. Now that the weather is so cold, it’s better not to watch the singing and dancing. It’s only right to lie down on the kang after you’ve eaten and drank enough.”
However, Yan Zhong was very interested and had to let everyone see the beauty in his family. He said to Chen Cheng: "The way of civility and martial arts is to relax and relax. If the bowstring is too tight for too long, it will break. Besides, if you don't show it,
How can you make the powerful scholars of Liangzhou submit to you if you show luxury and magnificence?"
Chen Cheng completely disagreed with Yan Zhong's views. However, since Yan Zhong wanted to show off, and it seemed that Yang Qiu, Xu Chao and the others were also quite interested, he did not want to spoil everyone's interest, so he let him
Zhao Yun sent a few people to pick up the dancers. Zhao Yun then got up and went out to arrange people and carriages.
By the time he came back and took his seat, Yan Zhong had already finished reading a poem and shouted for others to take turns to compose one. Although everyone here could read and write, except Xu Chao, how could anyone else?
Recited half a word? Yan Zhong got a little drunk. Seeing that the others looked troubled, he pestered Chen Cheng to come, "I know that the king has brocade in his chest and a universe in his belly. It's just poetry and prose, which is useless."
?”
Zi Jia'er bit Liu Qian's ear, making a sound like a mosquito buzzing, "Sister Liu, are adults so scary after drinking?"
Liu Qian picked up the cup and drained the juice in a "dun-dun-dun" motion. She hummed twice, her head touched Zi Jia'er's, and said: "What's so scary about that? When I grow up a few years,
You can defeat them!"
Zi Jiaer's eyes widened and she exclaimed: "Ah, Sister Liu is so powerful?"
Liu Qian was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Well, in a few years I can probably win a few... right?"
Chen Cheng was so entangled by Yan Zhong that he could not refuse, so he could only say: "Then I will give it a try."
He looked at the white snow in the courtyard, and there was a poem in his mind that was very suitable for the occasion. However, the words "Cherish the military power of Qin Emperor and Han Dynasty and slightly lose their literary talent" are really shocking in this era, and "A generation of genius, Genghis Khan, only
"Knowing how to bend a bow and shoot a big eagle" cannot be replaced by "a generation of genius, Tan Shihuai Khan, only knows how to bend a bow and shoot a big eagle", right?
Hey, it sounds like a rhyme if you change it this way, but what should "Tang Zong Song Zu" be replaced with?
Chen Cheng shook his head and thought: Well, Brother Meng De, no one else is familiar with him, so I have to look for you.
He replayed the Han Yuefu poem in his memory in his mind, and then chanted slowly: "Singing to wine, how many things are there in life. Like morning dew, it will be more bitter in the past!"
Yan Zhong was a little drunk, with an uninhibited smile on his face. After hearing these two sentences, he immediately stood in awe and exclaimed: "Cai!"
He is almost fifty years old now, isn't it "like the morning dew, it will be more miserable in the past"?
Liu Qian was shocked when she heard the word "geometry" and thought to herself: Is it necessary to examine academic performance now?
She raised her head and saw that everyone was staring at Chen Cheng, who was standing in the middle of the room, singing slowly.
"Be generous with generosity, worry will be unforgettable,
How to relieve worries? Only Du Kang!
Green Zijin, Youyouwoxin.
But for your sake, I still ponder it.
Yo yo, the deer roars, and the apples in the wild are eaten.
I have guests, harp blowing Sheng!"
After reading this, Chen Cheng stopped. It was daytime now, so the following sentence "It's as bright as the moon, when can I shake it off?" was naturally inappropriate. He had only read a few Tang poems and Song lyrics, and he was a true poet.
There isn't much, so rather than making things up, it's better to stop here.
"That's all I remember," Chen Cheng said with a smile: "Although I didn't write this poem, it fits exactly what I have in mind at the moment, so I'll borrow it for today."
Yan Zhong slapped the table and said loudly: "I wonder who wrote such a masterpiece?"
Others also looked curious. Poems are not something for lower-level people to play with. This kind of work, which can be passed down through the ages, is even more unlikely to come out casually. Although Yang Qiu and the others can't do it.
Poetry, but they still know how to appreciate it. Such a masterpiece made them mesmerized by it. Xu Chao whispered the phrase "Qingqing Zijin, lingering in my heart", then raised his head and looked at Chen Cheng expectantly.
Chen Cheng said without hesitation: "It was written by Li Bai."
"Forehead........"
"ah........."
Yan Zhong shouted: "Li Bai wrote it again? Who is this Li Bai?"
Chen Cheng said: "Li Bai, whose courtesy name is Taibai, claims to be from Suiye City!"
"............"
Just when the atmosphere became a little awkward, more than a dozen girls got off the carriage and walked along the eaves to the front. The Yingying and Yanyans knelt down together and said softly: "Greetings to Mr. Chen!"
The outside was covered with white snow and the temperature was very low. There was a charcoal fire around the room, which made the ground very warm. Even if you stood up barefoot, you would not feel cold. Chen Cheng asked the girls to stand up, and then
Enjoyed their singing and dancing with everyone.
These girls are pretty good-looking, otherwise they wouldn't be given to Chen Cheng as gifts. If they send an ugly girl, are they trying to please people, or are they trying to disgust people? But Chen Cheng doesn't know much about style, and he doesn't want to
He wasted time and energy on women, so he changed hands and gave these people to Yan Zhong.
Yan Zhong is almost fifty years old. When he was young, he slept in flowers and willows, but now he has long since reached the point where he has no thieves in his heart. Apart from the fact that he is more and more interested in fame as he gets older, he has no special preferences. Therefore, he has no special preferences.
, Yan Zhong did not enjoy these girls, but found someone to train them, and planned to send them back to Chen Cheng when they were almost ready.
Four hundred years ago, Xiao He once said, "Only when a palace is majestic can it command awe." How could Yan Zhong, who was familiar with history books, not understand this truth? If there was no pomp at all, he would be underestimated.
Gently shaking the wine glass, watching the girls singing and dancing in front of him, and the fragrant wind blowing in, even Chen Cheng had to admit that this does make people feel happy. Some things are instincts engraved in genes, I think
It is very difficult to resist. Even if he deliberately controls the secretion of hormones in his body, he can still distinguish what is beautiful and what is ugly, and his aesthetic outlook has not changed because of this.
However, this may be because the time is still short. In Chen Cheng's perception, material is the first priority, and spirit is built on the basis of material and can exert influence on material. Both matter and spirit are important.
, but in the final analysis, material comes first.
Chen Cheng was used to seeing various girl groups in later generations, and he thought they were good, so naturally others would also think they were good, and even Zhao Yun took a second look. Although Xiliang is located in a low-lying area, but it is in contact with the Western Regions, Hu
The dance is a mixture of Chinese and Chinese, deeply influenced by exotic customs, and the dance has a unique charm.
After the girls finished dancing a few songs and retired, dripping with sweat, Yan Zhong smiled and said, "How was it? I specially asked Hu Ji to teach me,"
Yang Qiuwu looked at the girls narcissistically and reluctantly. He stretched out his hand to grab a handful in the air, then put it to his nose and sniffed lightly, saying in his mouth: "Smells, it smells so good!"
Chen Cheng also said: "It's really good. The dance performed by Professor Hu Ji from the Western Regions is very charming!"
Liu Qian listened to the adults' comments with an expressionless face, but her fingers were twisted together.
Yan Zhong laughed and said: "Since you are still satisfied, how about I return the jade intact to you?"
He emphasized the pronunciation of the word "perfect jade" and winked, as if he was afraid that Chen Cheng would not understand what he meant, but Chen Cheng immediately shook his head and refused. It was only once that Yan Zhong paid for a beautiful woman.
Well, asking him to pay to support these people is another matter.
With this money and food, wouldn't it be good to use it to build more machinery and build more soldiers and armors? Or wouldn't it be nice to invest more money in the military academy to be established to improve the hardware facilities?
"A gentleman does not take what others like," Chen Cheng shook his head and said, "Since Bo Dao hired someone to train him, I'd better stay in your house."
Yan Zhong smiled and said: "You are young, unlike an old man like me. How can you be without a woman around you?"
Chen Cheng was still reluctant to pay, so Yan Zhong asked again: "Have you ever heard of the story of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty?"
"Of course I've heard of it."
"Do you still remember the old story of Emperor Gao favoring eunuchs who were Confucian scholars, so that the power of eunuchs in the palace grew day by day?"
It is said that Liu Bang had an affair with a young eunuch, which led General Fan Kuai to risk his life and break into the palace gate to remonstrate. Chen Cheng also knew some of this past incident. He pondered for a while and realized what Yan Zhong had not finished.
In this era, it is not unusual for a good man to be a good man. He has not taken a wife and is not close to women, so naturally he will be poked and gossiped behind his back.
"But........."
Seeing Chen Cheng's move, Yan Zhong took the opportunity to continue: "When they get older, the prince can also choose some good families for them in the army."
Chen Cheng finally nodded and said, "In that case, let them stay in the mansion."
He thought to himself: It would not be impossible to let them do some cleaning and mending in normal times.
