Chapter 247: This is how Song of Goose was originally written!
Chapter 247: This is how Song of Goose was originally written!
All the way south, the days are warm and the flowers are blooming in spring. The weather gets warmer as you go south.
When we arrived in Jiangnan, it happened to be March.
March is the time when spring flowers bloom in the south of the Yangtze River. The grass grows and orioles fly, creating a vibrant scene.
On days when the grass is growing and the orioles are flying, even Muchun seems extra energetic.
Lingxia, on the other hand, was actually a little listless under the mild weather.
Qin Tian was a little puzzled, but Lingxia said lazily: "We are tired in spring and tired in autumn. Normal tigers like to take a nap in spring."
Qin Tian glanced at Ling Xia strangely: "Can you be considered a tiger?"
"I see you have been a cat for so long that you even think of yourself as a cat!"
Lingxia rolled her eyes, was too lazy to talk to Qin Tian, and just went to lick her hair.
Qin Tian laughed out loud, turned around and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery by the lake.
The weather today is really good, the spring breeze is blowing, the sun is shining, and the sun is warm on your body.
This kind of weather is neither cold nor hot, very mild. Basking in the sun can't help but make people feel drowsy.
From time to time, two geese calls could be heard from the lake not far away, as well as the chirping of birds and insects, which was quiet and peaceful.
Qin Tian leaned under the willow tree that had just sprouted, swaying on the deck chair, enjoying this rare leisure time.
Suddenly, Qin Tian found that Muchun was staring at the paper kite in the hand of a little boy on the side of the road, unable to move his eyes away.
"What? You want it too?" Qin Tian smiled: "If you want it, Master will make one for you!"
Making a paper kite is very simple. Just pull out a few dry willow branches, paste them with paper, find a long rope, and then pull the rope and put it into the sky.
This thing is very common and cheap. In peacetime, it is a rare entertainment and pastime for ordinary children.
Similar ones include whistles made from willow bark and headbands woven from roadside wildflowers and willow branches.
These will leave an unforgettable time in children's childhood.
Muchun was a little hesitant. Although he also wanted the paper kite, she didn't want to trouble the master.
Unexpectedly, the little boy ran over first.
"Is this gold quilt and silver bed yours?"
Gold quilt and silver bed?
Qin Tian was stunned for a moment, looked at Ling Xia, and then couldn't help laughing.
The description of this child is quite apt. Lingxia has golden fur with tiger stripes and a white belly. Isn't that a gold quilt and a silver bed?
"He really looks like a tiger, what a tiger general!"
The child's playmates also came over and couldn't help but praise him.
After a while, Lingxia was surrounded by children watching Lingxia lick her fur.
These children were very well-educated, and the discussion was a discussion, but no one reached out to touch them without Qin Tian's permission.
Lingxia didn't care when she saw a group of children and still licked her paws lazily.
There were more and more people, and she started to get a little impatient.
"You are blocking her from the sun, be careful she gets angry." Qin Tian said with a smile.
Hearing this, a group of children immediately dispersed, leaving plenty of space for Lingxia to bask in the sun. Lingxia was then satisfied and nodded slightly to the leading child.
This immediately caused the children around to cheer.
After a while, the child came to Muchun's side hesitantly.
"Girl, do you dare to ask if this little cat is yours?"
The child is not big, but he pretends to be an adult, which is cute and tight.
Throughout the dynasties, creatures like cats have been called differently. Some are called cats, some are called meows, and some are called raccoons.
There is also a big difference in pronunciation.
At least the little meow in the child's mouth sounds like a kitten to Qin Tian. There is not much difference in pronunciation.
"Can I exchange my kite for your cat?"
As if he felt that this transaction was unfair, the child quickly said: "Maybe I can pay for it!"
Muchun covered his mouth and smiled: "You can't sell it. This is my junior sister, how can I sell it to you?"
"Junior sister?" The child was dumbfounded.
"Well, you go and give your paper kite to Junior Sister to play with. If Junior Sister is happy, maybe she will play with you for a while."
The child hesitated for a moment, then looked at Mu Chun's serious look and turned around, really planning to make friends with Ling Xia.
Lingxia turned around and rolled her eyes.
Since Lingxia was not skilled in the art of transformation, he often walked around the world as a kitten.
She doesn't really like the human form either.
Because when you transform into a human, you have to walk on your own, but when you transform into a kitten, you can crawl into your senior sister's arms when you don't want to walk, or you can simply lie on your master's head.
Lingxia doesn't like becoming a human because there are too many restrictions.
Master's head and senior sister's arms are both warm, comfortable, and very stable. Why do you have to turn into a human and walk by yourself? How tiring it is!
Muchun knew that she liked her, and also knew that Lingxia was too cute and often attracted other people's attention.
So Muchun liked to use the identity of Lingxia kitten to tease Menzi with outsiders.
This can be regarded as some little fun of their senior sisters.
"Then... may I ask, miss, what is your junior sister's name?"
"She, you can just call her Lingxia." Muchun seemed a little enthusiastic: "Because she was accepted by my master in the summer."
"So that's it!"
Luo Linhai looked like a young adult and saluted Lingxia.
"This girl Lingxia, my name is Luo Linhai. May I ask if I can play with girl Lingxia?"
Lingxia glanced at Luo Linhai slowly from the corner of her eyes, meowed twice, and then ignored Luo Linhai.
"This..." Luo Linhai froze on the spot: "May I ask what this means?"
Muchun looked at Lingxia reproachfully, but Lingxia was a little proud.
Others didn't know what Lingxia meant, but she knew it clearly.
Helpless, Muchun could only translate: "Junior sister said that she likes talented people, so if anyone among you can compose a poem, let's play with him!"
Lingxia is just a little idiot with a bad brain. How does she know what talent is and what poetry is?
It's just that the literary style of the Tang Dynasty was really prosperous. Along the way, she saw many talented scholars writing poems and singing, so Lingxia started to worry about it.
In fact, she doesn't understand poetry at all.
Mu Chun originally wanted to use his junior sister as a shield to play with the paper kite, but unexpectedly, he was tricked by his junior sister.
She was also a little helpless at this time.
"Can any poem be used?"
Lingxia's eyes were confused for a moment.
Poetry is poetry, so why are there other types?
Lingxia didn't quite understand, but she still nodded firmly.
Seeing Lingxia nodding, Luo Linhai was even more surprised. Even the friends in the circle found it a bit incredible.
At first they just thought the kitten was really pretty, so they came over to join in the fun. Hearing Muchun say that this was her junior sister, she thought it was a bit funny and a bit amusing.
But seeing how smart the kitten was, now they really began to wonder if the kitten could really understand human speech!
"In this case……"
Luo Linhai looked at the West Lake next to him and his eyes lit up.
"Speaking of which, I also had an impression of the scenery a while ago. It coincides with this season, and I have some insights."
Luo Linhai cleared his throat: "Miss Lingxia, please listen carefully!"
"This poem is called "Ode to the Goose"!"
"Goose, goose, goose, Qu Xiang sings to the sky..."
King Luo Bin paused and looked at the big geese in the lake. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The white hair floats on the green water, and the red palms stir the clear waves."
The children around immediately clapped and cheered: "Well written, well written, Linhai, well written!"
Luo Linhai was also a little proud, obviously proud of himself for writing such lively poetry.
This is a rare performance from him. Even though he has been a self-proclaimed genius since he was a child, he rarely produces such masterpieces!
"But... why Yong Goose?" Mu Chun asked with some confusion.
"Since you want to play with my junior sister, you should compose a song to chant to junior sister, or to chant meow. How come you compose a song to chant goose?"
"This..." Luo Linhai's mouth twitched.
Aren’t you allowed to write any poem?
Of course, Luo Linhai would definitely not dare to say this directly.
"I'm not afraid of girls' jokes. In fact, I had an idea for this poem before, but I was never satisfied with it."
"Today I got to meet the girl and the girl's...junior sister, so I felt inspired and perfected this poem."
"After thinking about it, I suddenly thought it was a masterpiece, so I quickly took it out to show off my shame."
"If the girl wants to sing a song about meow, I can do it, but...it may not be as catchy as this song about chanting goose!"
Luo Linhai told his psychological journey very honestly.
Not to mention Lingxia, even Muchun knows nothing about poetry. She doesn’t even know what Pingze is!
Helpless, the two of them could only turn to Qin Tian for help.
They only thought that this poem was indeed catchy and interesting, but that was all. They could not tell clearly what was so good about this poem.
On the other side, Qin Tian was already a little stunned.
"So, is this how this poem came about?"
Qin Tian couldn't help but feel a little interesting.
This famous goose chant is known to everyone in later generations.
Does chanting the goose have any profound connotations? No.
Any thought-provoking stories? nor.
Ode to the Goose is a simple poem about a goose, a big white goose, nothing more.
Among the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty, Yang Luluo, Luo is beginning to show his talent today.
During the early Tang Dynasty, the writing style of the entire Tang Dynasty had not yet broken away from the beautiful legacy of the Later Han Dynasty.
Due to Qin Tian's intervention and the superposition of various historical factors, the writing style and habits of the entire society after the Later Han Dynasty were not very healthy.
Most people's writing at that time focused on the pursuit of gorgeous words.
The four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty were the first to stand up and change this trend.
Especially King Luo Bin, whose song of singing the goose when he was young is one of his masterpieces.
"Ying the Goose" does not have any profound connotation, nor is there any touching story. Some of it is just what a child sees and hears.
But it is such a simple scene, but he wrote it vividly, lively, cute, and catchy.
The most important thing is that although it is a five-character poem, Luo Linhai is not limited to the rhythm of it, which actually creates a different kind of interest!
"What a poem! What a poem!" Qin Tian sighed, stroking his palms!
Only then did Luo Linhai notice the young man who had been sitting quietly on one side basking in the sun.
"Sir, you are so complimentary!"
"This poem is enough to be passed down through the ages!" Qin Tian affirmed without hesitation.
This catchy five-character poem later became an enlightenment work for countless children.
Even young children who have just learned to speak can appreciate the scene described in this poem while learning to speak.
Education is delayed.
After learning the poem "Ode to the Goose", many children are actually unable to understand its meaning.
But many years later, when they accidentally see the big white goose floating on the water waves, they will vaguely think of that spring afternoon when they were babbling.
Thinking of the parents who taught me how to use red palms to clear waves, education has only completed a closed loop.
This goose chant is very simple, but it is precisely because it is simple enough and has beautiful rhythm that it has been sung for thousands of years!
Qin Tian looked at King Luo Bin, or rather Luo Linhai: "You kid will become a great man in the future!"
Thinking of King Luo Bin's life, Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"No matter what happens in the future, I hope you can stick to your original intention and not waver."
Qin Tian thought for a while and said after a while: "Maybe it's not impossible to make some changes sometimes."
"Leaving right and wrong to the judgment of future generations is sometimes a prudent way to protect one's own safety."
At this time, Luo Linhai naturally could not understand what Qin Tian said, but this did not prevent him from keeping these words in his heart.
He respects every elder.
And for some reason, Qin Tian made him feel at ease just by standing in front of him.
"That's all, it's too early to tell you this now. You will understand what I say in the future."
Qin Tian sighed helplessly: "When you make that decision, you may think of what happened today."
"only hope……"
Qin Tian's voice became smaller and smaller and gradually disappeared.
After a while, he rubbed Muchun's head: "Okay, you two, stop teasing others, go say hello to Xiao Luo, and let's play together!"
After receiving the master's approval, Muchun nodded repeatedly.
Although Ling Xia didn't know what happened, since this kid was approved by his master, he could barely be considered approved by her!
"You should also move around. You'll be motionless all day. Be careful of getting fat!"
Qin Tian stroked Lingxia's body.
Lingxia reluctantly stood up and prepared to run and play with Mu Chun.
"Okay, let's go play, don't run too far, or you won't be able to find the way for a while."
Qin Tian waved his hand and motioned for a few people to go and play.
Looking at Luo Linhai's leaving figure, Qin Tian fell into deep thought.
In the original history, King Luo Bin was a very famous person, not only because of his writing style and works, but also because he did a great thing!
The famous "Tao Wu Zhao Xi" in history was written by him himself.
The full name of the petition to challenge Wu Zhao is "Quest for Wu Zhao Xi for Xu Jingye", which is written about the year when Wu Zhao ascended the throne. ,
As for the other protagonist in the story, it is naturally Xu Jingye who raised troops for breakfast.
However, the fate of these two men was not very good. Xu Jingye was directly defeated and killed. As for King Luo Bin, his fate was unknown.
No one knows what happened that year.
But in Qin Tian's view, the so-called missing person is actually the same as death!
