Chapter 250
In the seventh year of Zhenguan, the end of spring and the beginning of summer, Guiwei.

Since Yangzhou City entered summer, Jiangdu, which was originally quite sunny, seemed to have entered the rainy season. It has been raining continuously for several days, and the rain has become the main theme of the ancient city of Yangzhou. Linjiang Palace, where Li Ke lives, also Within the jurisdiction of Yangzhou, the same is true.

Linjiang Palace in Yangzhou was built by Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty. It sits ten miles south of Jiangdu City. Because it is close to Yangzijin, it is also famous for the palace.

Linjiang Palace is close to Jiangzhu. There is a Lingjiang Tower in Linjiang Palace. Because of the high terrain, it is built in the middle of the mountain. Therefore, you can hear the sound of the river and watch the appearance of the river from the upper floor. win.

At that time, due to continuous days of overcast and rainy days, the sky was dark, and when I looked around, my eyes were full of grayness, but it was this darkness that gave the city of Yangzhou, which was originally famous for its beauty and vitality, a thick and dignified taste. , read a bit of the taste of the ancient city of Yangzhou.

"Crash."

Li Ke stood under the eaves of the Lingjiang Tower with his hands behind his back, looked far into the distance, looked at the boundless river under the dark sky, and listened to the sound of the rain beating the bright tiles in his ears, there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart gloomy.

Although he didn't know the reason, it pressed on Li Ke's chest like a big stone, making him unable to breathe smoothly.

"Clang, clang, clang"

Just when Li Ke felt a sudden depression in his heart, a burst of piano sound came from the listening river building. The melodious sound of the piano was mixed with the continuous sound of the river crashing against the shore. The taste of people's hearts.

Li Ke looked into the distance and listened to the sound of the qin beside his ears, his mind was suddenly enlightened, as if he was the person in the song, like a lonely boat floating on the river, swimming in the water.

The person playing the music is superb and touching. It is Xiao Yuexian who Li Ke brought back from the Yanyu Tower half a month ago. This "Narciss Exercise" is actually a little less magnificent than the ones Li Ke has heard, but a little more lonely.

However, this song is in harmony with this situation, and it is also in harmony with Li Ke's current state of mind.

"A good song, Xianniang's song "Narciss Exercise" and the sound of the surging river in my ears complement each other perfectly. It smells very good, and it can enter my heart." After Xiao Yuexian played the song, Li Ke couldn't help it The aftertaste is endless, as if you are still in the song, so you clapped your hands and sighed.

Xiao Yuexian said modestly: "Today's song can meet His Highness's wishes, most of it depends on this piece of 'Yu Linglong' bestowed by His Highness."

The "Yu Linglong" in Xiao Yuexian's mouth is the name of the guqin, which was once owned by Ji Kang, a master of guqin in Cao Wei Dynasty. The famous Guangling San was written by Ji Kang with "Yu Linglong".

'Yu Linglong', as its name suggests, plays the piano with the sound of hitting jade. It is a rare treasure in the world. It was once acquired by Yang Su in the former Sui Dynasty and was hidden in the mansion. Later, Yang Su's mansion was given to Li Ke by Li Shimin. It is owned by Li Ke.

Li Ke heard Xiao Yuexian's words, shook his head and said: "Xianniang's words are absurd. In my king's opinion, everything depends on the person, not the instrument. How can a piece of music be judged by the quality of the qin? If the qin master has no talent, even if the ancient "bell" and "Zuoliang" are given as gifts, it will not help. The way of playing the qin is just like this king's martial arts. Hard to be brave."

Xiao Yuexian has been serving Li Ke for half a month. Every day when Li Ke practices martial arts, she can always accompany him. Li Ke's martial arts skills are so good that he is not even inferior to a veteran general in the army. She has good eyesight and can tell by herself.

Xiao Yuexian said: "Your Highness is the son of a phoenix and the grandson of a dragon. I am very comparable to myself, and how dare I compare myself to Your Highness."

Li Ke heard the words, smiled lightly and said: "Why should Xianniang take herself lightly, according to this king, your qin skills are excellent, even the musicians in the palace are not as good as you, your qin skills can be regarded as Boya in the world."

The "Narciss Exercise" played by Xiao Yuexian just now was written by Cheng Lian in the Spring and Autumn Period. Cheng Lian was the teacher of the qin master Boya. He taught Boya the piano art for three years. When Boya got the soul of his music, he became a famous artist of a generation. Li Ke has been compared to Boya, so it is naturally highly praised.

Xiao Yuexian heard the words, but stood up, walked to Li Ke's side, leaned in Li Ke's arms, and said softly: "No matter how tall Boya's qin is, it takes Zhong Ziqi to hear the sound, but this It's hard to find a bosom friend in the world, but I don't know if His Highness is willing to be a concubine's bosom friend?"

"A bosom friend?"

Li Ke listened to Xiao Yuexian's words, gently stopped Xiao Yuexian's waist, and said slowly: "Although this king is not good at rhythm, let alone how to play the piano, but fortunately, his eyes and ears are quite clever, and he can barely be half a bosom friend of the fairy lady. .”

Upon hearing this, Xianniang raised her head in Li Ke's arms and asked, "Oh? But I don't know what His Highness heard from my concubine's piano?"

After listening to Xiao Yuexian's words, Li Ke came up with a sentence in his mind, and read it out softly: "Lao Ge is a twisted interpretation of sailing a boat, with green leaves, green mountains and rapids. The sunset is far away, and the sky is full of wind and rain and descends to the west building."

As soon as the poem in Li Ke's mouth came out, Xiao Yuexian was slightly taken aback.

Xiao Yuexian is the daughter of the late Liang Emperor Xiao Mian. She has read and read poems and books since she was young, and she has read many famous poems and masterpieces. The method is also very novel, obviously this poem is not the work of the ancestors.

Xiao Yuexian asked: "Your Majesty's words are very poetic, but I have never heard of them before, but I don't know which famous artist in the world wrote them?"

Just now Li Ke said that he just read the book in response to the occasion, he didn't think about it too much, after listening to Xiao Yuexian's words, he remembered that what he just said was Xu Hun's poems.

Xu Hun was born in the late Tang Dynasty, more than a hundred years ago. Now Xu Hun is still unknown, and Li Ke will answer her.

So Li Ke paused for a moment, then took out his set of rhetoric that he used to perfunctory Wang Xuance, and replied: "This poem was read by this king in the palace in the early years, maybe it was written by the master in the previous dynasty. "

After listening to Li Ke's words, Xiao Yuexian just nodded, but the suspicion in her eyes didn't decrease in the slightest.

Just now, what Li Ke recited was a seven-character regulated poem. Its sound and rhyme are cleverly lined up, which can be described as a novelty. Xiao Yuexian has never composed a poem like this in the present world, but Li Ke said that it is a posthumous work of the previous dynasty. letter.

But it is also true that the seven-character verses began in the early Tang Dynasty, and after nearly a hundred years of tempering, they did not shine until they were in the hands of Du Fu, and Xu Hun's poems were already a masterpiece of seven-character verses, Xiao Yuexian was naturally surprised.

So Xiao Yuexian said: "Good poem, the idea of ​​this poem is very good, but it is rare for concubines in my life."

Hearing Xiao Yuexian's approval, Li Ke also nodded calmly.

Xu Hun's poems are naturally good poems. After more than a hundred years, after the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Li Du died, and Wang Wei, He Zhizhang, and Cen Shen had already turned into dust. With Du Mu and two supporting, Xu Hun's poems are not good poems.

Li Ke's reaction was inadvertent, but in Xiao Yuexian's eyes, it had other meanings.

Li Ke is quite well-known in literature, and he was proficient in writing and ink when he was still a child. He even drew up the year name of "Zhenguan" when he was eight years old. Xiao Yuexian even had a guess in his mind that this poem was actually written by Li Ke himself. ?
Xiao Yuexian thought about it, and felt a little unbelievable, but when she was about to ask again, she saw Li Ke's confidant Wang Xuance walking up the mountain road quickly with a paper umbrella.

Wang Xuance left in a hurry, and he didn't come up to meet him as usual, but he opened his mouth and said, "Your Highness, the Jianghuai River has been raining heavily for days, and the water level of the Huaihe River has risen sharply. There may be a danger of flooding downstream."
