Remembrance of Tianyin's Adventure

Early one morning, Zhan Zhao escorted Bao Zheng back from court, and after finishing his official duties in the mansion, he went to the Tianyin School's Shifu.Mu Wuxin was brought into the forbidden area of ​​Tianyin Sect by Zhan Zhao, and after a long conversation, after repeated refusals, she finally took the revised score of "Reminiscence" into her hand.

Back in the government office, Zhan Zhao and Mu Wuxin went to visit the maidservants in white clothes who were burned by the fire.Seeing that their injuries were no longer serious, Zhan Zhao gathered all the maidservants together and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

The leading maid said sadly: "Although the world is big, there is no room for us. What else can we plan?"

Zhan Zhao said: "Since that's the case, are you willing to worship under the Tianyin sect?"

All the maidservants were already desperate, but seeing that the Tianyin faction was willing to take them in, they naturally couldn't ask for more, they immediately knelt down and thanked Zhan Zhao for his kindness.

Zhan Zhao asked Mu Wuxin to step forward and said, "From now on, this old Mr. Mu will be your master!" Everyone quickly kowtowed to Mu Wuxin.

Mu Wuxin looked at the crowd, not only pity, but also firmness in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "At present, there is an important matter for you to do as a teacher. You must do your best, and you must not neglect in the slightest!"

After Mu Wuxin left, Zhan Zhao asked Gongsun Ce about the regulations of the Ministry of Rites, and then told him all his plans, asking Gongsun Ce to help him.Gongsun Ce deeply felt his chivalrous heart, and immediately offered him a plan.

That night, when Zhan Zhao was on duty in the palace, he met the emperor and reported the pieces that the Tianyin School was going to play on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival one by one.Seeing that Renzong was very satisfied, Zhan Zhao took the opportunity to say: "Everything is ready now, only the person who will perform in front of you is difficult to determine."

Renzong said: "What's so difficult about this, as long as you are a disciple of the Tianyin Sect, you can choose whatever you want!"

Zhan Zhao showed hesitation and said: "The disciples of this school are all mountain people, and there are many ugly ones among them. They are afraid of disturbing the holy car!"

Renzong laughed and said: "No matter how ugly he looks, he is still my subject. As the king of a country, how can I be disturbed by my subjects?"

Zhan Zhao continued: "Your Majesty is benevolent and loves the people, of course I know it. However, since the Emperor wants to have fun with the people during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is inevitable that officials from the Ministry of Rites will accompany him. I am afraid that these ugly disciples will not be able to pass the hurdle of the Ministry of Rites in the first place! "

"What's so difficult about this?" Renzong said to the eunuch Wang Xi, "immediately decree the Ministry of Rites: On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I want to appreciate the qin art of the Tianyin School. All the disciples of the Tianyin School, regardless of whether they are beautiful or ugly, will be released!" Zhan Zhao immediately Kowtow to thank you, secretly admiring Gongsun Ce's strategy.

Although Renzong became more and more interested in Tianyin School recently, the musicians in the palace were not neglected because of this.Instead, they got busier.Perhaps it was because they heard the legends about the Tianyin School, and thought that Qin music really had a magical charm. Perhaps it was because of the favor of Renzong that the concubines in the harem rushed to summon musicians to teach them how to play the piano.As the head of the palace musicians, Fan Xianghui frequently travels between various palaces every day.

At this moment, he was teaching Princess An Ning the skill of "wheel fingers". Seeing Princess An Le approaching, he quickly stood up and saluted.

"Get back down!" Linglong looked at Fan Xianghui, and said to Mei Niang with a smile: "It turns out that my sister is learning the piano. If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid it's because of 'him'? It seems that I came at a bad time!" Staring at Mei Niang Her eyes seemed to be able to see through all her thoughts.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mei Niang knew she couldn't tell her, so she simply didn't argue with her, ordered Fan Xianghui to step back, motioned Linglong to sit down and said, "Why is my sister free to visit me today?"

Linglong didn't sit down, and said bluntly: "The queen mother wants to marry my sister to Bai Yutang, but seeing that my sister has been reluctant to agree, she asked me to persuade you!"

Mei Niang was surprised for a moment, thinking of her mother's good intentions, she felt helpless, and asked Linglong, "Do you think you can persuade me?"

Linglong sat down on the chair discouragedly and said: "I don't have that ability! But the queen mother is right to worry, she only has our three daughters, she didn't ask me to come, could it be that sister Ni came? She couldn't even persuade herself, and How can I advise you?"

Mei Niang said stubbornly: "No one needs to persuade anyone! I won't marry my cousin!"

"Why bother?" Linglong stood up and said, "I know you've been thinking about Zhan Zhao, but no matter how good he is, he's neither ours nor yours. Although I haven't seen him many times, what is he like? I know very well. His mind is full of common people, and he will not take the matter of marrying a wife to heart! We...why do you bother yourself?" Linglong never admitted it in front of anyone She also likes Zhan Zhao, but the fact cannot be denied.She likes to watch Zhan Zhao act chivalrously, like to bicker with Zhan Zhao, like to be teased by Zhan Zhao, and even more like Zhan Zhao to praise her beauty without shy away!But Linglong is not greedy at all, she only hopes to see Zhan Zhao from time to time in the future, continue to watch him act chivalrously, continue to bicker with him, continue to be teased by him, and continue to listen to him unabashedly praising her beauty.

"I don't want to marry Big Brother Zhan for a long time!" Mei Niang said sadly, "But I... can't marry my cousin either."

"Why?" Linglong said, "Could it be that Bai Yutang treats you badly?"

"Okay! Of course!" Mei Niang said with tears in her eyes, "There is no one who treats me better than him in the world! But it is precisely because of this that I cannot marry him!" As she spoke, tears flowed down her cheeks "Facing him, I will regret for the rest of my life!" While wiping away tears, he forced a smile and said, "Go and tell your mother, please don't worry about me, except for Bai Yutang, whoever your mother asks me to marry, I will marry! "

Linglong was taken aback, thinking it was a momentary remark from her, and wanted to persuade her again, but she heard Mei Niang say: "Don't feel sorry for me, I'm very happy like this, really! I don't want my future husband to be like my cousin He loves me the same, and I don’t want him to know my affection for Big Brother Zhan. In this way, I can live with him with peace of mind.” A sweet smile appeared on his face, and his eyes gradually drifted away: “When I’m alone, I will smoke Burning incense, sitting down and playing the guqin, embroidering purses, quietly recalling every word Brother Zhan said to me, every look he looked at me..."

On the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, Renzong and the Queen Mother returned to the former residence of the Queen Mother in the folk under the protection of many imperial guards.After all the arrangements were made, Renzong took off his dragon robe, put on commoner clothes, and spent a day with the queen mother in the ordinary life of a folk mother and child.This is the first time they put aside the gorgeous burden of imperial power and enjoy the sincerity and purity of family affection.

That night, Renzong and the Empress Dowager, dressed in royal costumes, sat in the middle with their backs to the courtyard.All the people were full of joy and sat on the ground opposite.There is a full moon in the sky above, and the sound of a piano ringing in your ears below. The virtuous king and the people are on a blind date close to each other. What a scene of prosperity!

Due to his relationship with the Queen Mother, Bai Yutang was also invited to attend the event.However, when the members of the Tianyin School showed their brilliance in front of the monarch and the people with their superb piano skills, Bai Yutang was surprised to find that Zhan Zhao was not among them.After searching hard, his gaze finally landed on an extremely inconspicuous corner.

"You are really brave!" Saying that, Bai Yutang flew to land near Zhan Zhao.

"Brother Bai, why did you say that?" Zhan Zhao glanced sideways at him, and then returned to Mu Wuxin who was playing the piano.

Bai Yutang held his sword in his chest, raised his handsome eyebrows and said, "Isn't it? You don't need so many disciples of the Tianyin Sect, you have to use those white-clothed maids. Even if they have learned some piano skills from the demon girl and Guo Zhongqing, compared to the heavenly The official disciples of the Yin School are still far behind! They all wear veils, so it’s good not to be suspected of being assassins by the Imperial Forest Army, but they dare to play the piano for the emperor face to face! If something goes wrong, they will lose their heads! "

Zhan Zhao said: "The emperor is not a tyrant, how could he easily execute people? But don't worry, they won't make any mistakes, I have confidence in them!"

"It's not that you have confidence in them." Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao's clenched fist, and said with a chuckle, "Is it because you have confidence in the millet in your hand?"

"Brother Bai is really astute!" Zhan Zhao said with a smile: "Their piano skills are not bad, and the tunes are also proficient. It's just the first time to perform for the emperor, so it is inevitable that they will be nervous and make mistakes."

"So you just hide here and listen quietly," Bai Yutang said, "The millet thrown from your hand is enough to eliminate the wrong sound before it leaves the string." ''s kung fu, he made it so superb!", but his face was gloating: "You help them like this, but it is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Zhan Zhao looked around at the imperial guards and said, "With my skill, it's impossible for them to find out." He smiled slyly at Bai Yutang and said, "Unless...you go to the emperor to expose me."

Bai Yutang rolled his eyes at him angrily, and said disdainfully: "I don't have that much time to spare!" After thinking for a while, he said: "However, as the head of the Tianyin Sect, you don't even show your face, you just send a The manager brought his disciples to perform for the emperor, your airs are too big, don't you?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, "Mr. Mu has already taken over as head."

"What?" Bai Yutang said in surprise, "It's only been a few days since you took over as head, and you passed the position to someone else?"

Zhan Zhao said: "I am in Gongmen, how can I lead the disciples of Tianyin Sect to travel around the world and play music for the common people? Old Mr. Mu not only has a high attainment in Qin music, but also is honest and honest, and has no desire to avoid the world. If he takes over as the head, he will definitely inherit the essence of the founding of the Tianyin Sect."

Bai Yutang knew that Zhan Zhao would not leave Bao Zheng, but he still couldn't help asking, "Are you not at all tempted by the happy days of the Tianyin School?"

Zhan Zhao lowered his eyes and smiled, looked at Lang Yue in the sky and said, "If I hadn't met Mr. Bao, if I didn't have this martial arts, maybe I would be the second Uncle Shangguan!"

After playing the song, Mu Wuxin led all his disciples to kowtow to Renzong, and obtained Renzong's permission, and unveiled the veils of several white-clothed maidservants in public.

Although Renzong was prepared, he didn't expect them to look like this.Amidst the astonished eyes of the people and the sighs one after another, Mu Wuxin reported the tragic experience of these maidservants to Renzong.When Renzong heard this, he was shocked and felt pity for them. He not only fulfilled his promise to Zhan Zhao, but granted them titles, and specially named them "Beauties of Yuefu".

All the maidservants were grateful and kowtowed.The emperor Jinkou sealed them as "beauties". From now on, who in the world would dare to call them ugly?They can finally hold their heads up as human beings, and they no longer have to be afraid of being difficult to tolerate in the world!

Mu Wuxin won the highest praise from Renzong and the Empress Dowager with a brand new song "Reminiscence", and as the head of the Tianyin School, he was conferred the title of "Number One Musician in the World"!

Looking at Zhan Zhao beside him, Bai Yutang couldn't help but be filled with emotion: Zhan Zhao is the one who made "Reminiscence" last forever in the world; it was Zhan Zhao who made the Tianyin School famous all over the world; it was Zhan Zhao who passed on the headship to Mu Wuxin Yes, it's also Zhan Zhao.However, how many people in the world know that Zhan Zhao was once the head of Tianyin Sect?Perhaps, no one even knows that he plays the piano well.

The autumn sunshine, with its unique beauty and transparency, illuminates the entire Kaifeng mansion.In the courtyard, Cheng Yin was pressing the strings with one hand and resting his cheek on the other, staring blankly at the cattle tied to the plane tree, sighing.

Gongsun Ce happened to pass by this way after he was busy with his official duties. When he saw Cheng Yin, he couldn't help showing a kind smile on his face. He stepped forward and asked, "You came to find Zhan Weiwei to learn the piano, why do you always have to lead a cow?"

"Didn't my elder brother ask me to take it? I don't know why?" Cheng Yin pouted his mouth and muttered, "The abbot said, I don't have enough patience for sitting meditation and chanting sutras. Maybe 'playing the piano to a cow' can temper my patience. "

Gongsun Ce Nianxu smiled and said: "You play the piano in front of it all day, I'm afraid you didn't develop your own patience, but you developed the patience of a cow!"

Cheng Yin scratched his bald head, smiled embarrassedly, and then said with a childish bitter face: "But Uncle Gongsun, can a cow really understand the sound of the piano?".

Gongsun Ce said: "Uncle Gongsun will tell you the allusion of 'playing the piano to the cow', okay?"

"Sure! Good!" Cheng Yin clapped his hands and said, "Speak quickly! Speak quickly!"

Gongsun Ce said: "In ancient times, there was a man named Gong Mingyi. He played elegant tunes to the cows, but the cows remained indifferent and kept grazing."

"Then what happened next?" Cheng Yin asked.

Gongsun Ce said: "Later, Gong Mingyi finally thought of a way to make the cow understand his piano sound."

Cheng Yin shook Gongsun Ce's arm and said, "What method did he come up with?"

Gongsun Ce said: "It depends on you to realize it yourself!"

At this time, Zhan Zhao had already stepped into the courtyard, and said to Cheng Yin, "It's not that my brother is making things difficult for you. The disciples of the Tianyin School have to go through this test at the beginning of their learning. Although they have different methods, they have the same method. In the future, you Whether the sound of the piano can move others depends on your understanding."

Half a month later, at dawn, Zhan Zhao rode out of Beijing to see Chunni off at the Ten Mile Chang Pavilion.

Chunni is dressed in Jianghu attire, holding a sword in her hand, and she is heroic, standing tall in the wind.The autumn wind was blowing, raising her pink dress, as if she couldn't wait to insert firm wings for this once delicate and beautiful little flower, and take her to fly to the distant sky.

"Do you have to go?" Even though he knew he would get the same answer, Zhan Zhao still refused to give up asking.

An imperceptible hesitation flashed across Chunni's eyes, and she said resolutely, "Senior Brother, I have made up my mind!"

Zhan Zhao said: "But the world is dangerous, your skills are still shallow, and your experience is not deep..." If it was someone else who would willingly give up the noble status of the royal family, stay away from the prosperity and prosperity of the capital, and go deep into the people to benefit the people, Zhan Zhao would definitely be very grateful , How can it hinder it?But it was none other than the one who was about to leave Beijing, but Zhan Zhao's junior sister whom Zhan Zhao loved in every possible way since he was a child, and who was afraid that she would get hurt a little bit.

"So what if the rivers and lakes are dangerous?" Chun Ni said: "Since I promised Brother Huang that I would use my clothes to investigate the sufferings of the people in the name of traveling the rivers and lakes, how can I retreat lightly?"

"Is this the emperor's intention, or did you take the initiative to invite Ying?" This is what Zhan Zhao wants to know the most.

Chunni's complexion changed slightly, and she avoided Zhang Zhao's keen gaze and said, "What's the difference?"

"Of course it's different!" Zhan Zhao said: "If it's the emperor's will, I have nothing to say since you accepted the order gladly. But if..."

Chun Ni interrupted him and said: "Brother! I have grown up, and I am no longer the spoiled and willful little junior sister. I know that you promised my father to take care of me, and I also know that the mother and the emperor will take good care of me." Me, but I don’t need your care anymore! I am my father’s disciple just like you, since you can be his pride, why can’t I? Something?" She looked at Zhan Zhao, her clear eyes filled with anticipation.

Even though Chunni's words are reasonable and difficult to refute, Zhan Zhao knows in his heart that although the private visit of Weifu is the reason for her leaving Beijing, it is not the whole reason.

Zhan Zhao knows that there is a saying, as long as he is willing to say it, he will definitely be able to keep Chunni.But if he could say this, he would have said it half a year ago when he reunited with Chunni, so why wait until today?However, at this moment, in this situation, if he still doesn't say anything, he really won't be able to keep Chunni.

Now that Chunni is gone, she doesn't know when she will be able to return to Beijing. Even if she returns, she will leave Beijing in a hurry after reporting the people's sentiments to the emperor.And Zhan Zhao often goes out to handle cases, so he may not be in the capital when Chun Ni returns to Beijing.After saying goodbye today, the day when he and Chunni will meet again will be far away.

The morning sun has slowly risen from the sky, covering Chunni's eyes with a layer of warm gold.Those charming eyes are still full of anticipation, I don't know if I am looking forward to the encouragement from my senior brother, or to persuade me to keep...
