The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 190
There is a clear pond in the leisure courtyard of the Li Palace. The vegetation on the edge of the pond is green, and the scenery of the green waves of the pond is pleasant.

The morning sun was shining, and Guo Jia, who was dressed in a pure white brocade robe, was sitting in the gazebo, with a delicate and simple lyre on the table in front of him.

The ancients said: "First get rid of its roughness and roughness, get its peaceful and calm nature, gradually transform its evilness, open its ignorance, develop its wisdom, and only then can you understand the joy, sorrow, anger and other emotions expressed by its voice. And it's interesting."

Playing the piano can nourish one's character and happiness, and cleanliness and ease are the basics of playing the piano. Therefore, pianists often clean their bodies, burn incense, and take off their clothes to make their minds pure, comfortable, and natural.

In this era, if a woman wants to be famous, she can only be reduced to a vulgar plaything based on her beauty. If you are proficient in the same way, you must be good at at least one or two. A woman who is knowledgeable and reasonable is enough to impress. If she is also outstanding in piano or chess, she can be famous.

Not all the children of the rich and powerful are idiots, there are scum everywhere, but even if they can't be both civil and military, they basically have mediocre literary talents.

Guo Jia became famous when he was young, and he had a good personal relationship with Xun Yu's Xi Zhicai. It's not just because of his inconspicuous words that he can't stop dying. Among the six arts of gentlemen, Guo Jia has no famous teacher to teach him except archery, and he doesn't have that kind of family background. In other respects, When Guo Jia was very young, he was self-taught, and he was self-taught. After all, a mature person, when other children were eager to have fun, he cherished every minute and every second of self-study.

Confucius said: "Prosper in poetry, establish in ritual, and succeed in music"

Guo Jia started to learn the qin art after getting acquainted with Xun Yu. Maybe many men would disdain the qin and think that it is a skill learned by women. But in ancient times, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting ranked first. If you don't know anything about qin and music, I'm afraid you'll call yourself a talent.

When he was young, his family was poor, Guo Jia was diligent and diligent, and he tried his best to be self-educated, but learning to play the piano requires an instrument. After he met Xun Yu, he made him his confidant. He also gave Guo Jia the books on Qin score and music theory one by one, so that Guo Jia could learn the art of Qin as he wished. The two of them, together with Xi Zhicai, often played the piano and sang together, eloquently eloquent, and learned chess skills. The most beautiful memory ever.

Gently plucking the strings, Guo Jia seemed to see Xun Yu in front of his eyes.

"Wen Ruo, the last thing I want to see in this life is meeting you and me on the battlefield."

After Guo Jia rose to power, he never had any contact with Xun Yu, not even a letter.

Everyone has their own aspirations and cannot be forced.

Since they are bosom friends, they understand each other.

What Xun Yu wants to protect is the Han Dynasty. He voted for Cao Cao because besides Cao Cao, the world may not find a second hero who can help the Han Dynasty, but Xun Yu didn't know that after Cao Cao occupied half of the country, Cao Cao's ambition will show the world.

These, not only Guo Jia, maybe many people can foresee, but Guo Jia has no evidence, so why is he trying to persuade Xun Yu based on guesswork?

Even without Cao Cao, Xun Yu would not come to help Guo Jia, because Xun Yu also knew Guo Jia.

He knew that Guo Jia was not a hero who would go through fire and water for the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, Guo Jia did not persuade Xun Yu, and Xun Yu did not persuade Guo Jia.

They haven't seen each other for several years, but this tacit understanding seems to be their tacit understanding, deliberately avoiding the intersection that will occur with each other, but this kind of cover-up, they all know that in the not-too-distant future, they will be ruthlessly shattered by reality.

There was a monotonous sound of strings.

Guo Jia flicked his right hand and closed his eyes to listen to the tone.

The qin originally had five strings, Gong Shangjiao Zhengyu, Wen Wang added a string, Shaogong, Wu Wang added a string, Shao Shang, the expressiveness of the qin's timbre was greatly enhanced, and it was passed down to become a civil and military lyre.

In Guo Jia's own mansion, there is a Jiaoweiqin that has been passed down through the ages, which was passed down to Cai Yan by Cai Yong as a dowry. Guo Jia has never touched Cai Yan's favorite lyre.

The production of Guqin is very particular: "Good selection of materials, deep meaning, 500 years, and correct sound."

The lyre in front of me today is exquisitely made. It was carefully selected by the Yizhou nobles and deliberately left in the palace, and it was presented to Guo Jia in disguise.

Facing an unfamiliar piano, you have to test the sound first to feel it.

The right hand plucks the empty strings to listen to the tone, and the left hand does not touch the strings. The sound produced in this way is thick and thick, which is called Sanyin, also called ground tone, which symbolizes the earth.

Guo Jia first tried the loose tone, then lightly touched the strings with his left hand, and plucked the strings with his right hand again, and there was a burst of ethereal and clear sound, which is the overtone, also known as Tianyin.

The movement of the right hand remains unchanged, and the strings are still plucked, while the left hand slides on the strings, and the sound of the piano changes in a thousand ways, which can be said to be as you like. This is the "harmony between heaven, earth and man" in the sound of the piano.

Taking a deep breath, Guo Jia felt peaceful. He gently touched the strings with his left hand, and began to pluck the strings with his right hand. The melody began with heavenly notes.

The beautiful and gentle sounds of the piano merged into a pleasant and pleasant melody of nature.

Guqin emphasizes rhyme, not sound; it emphasizes meaning, not form.

Guo Jia's accomplishments in piano skills are not as good as Cai Yan's, and he is also not as good as Cai Yong. The music is high and few, but it can't stop them from making friends with the piano and enhancing their relationship.

The emperor's blessings are given to the people for joy.

Music is art, and art has no fixed form.

Luthiers who can play the piano all over the world have imitated the famous scores of famous songs, but they can't play the confidant artistic conception of the high mountains and flowing waters of Boya Ziqi.

Thoughts come from the heart, and improvisations follow the heart. Although Guo Jia is doing rebellious, radical and revolutionary things, he is still a peaceful person in his bones, so he always plays the piano with the sound of heaven. Starting from the ground tone, most of the piano winds are also majestic and majestic.

Thinking back to when I was young, I talked and laughed with Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu, talking about the past and the present, drinking and composing poems, carefree. Guo Jia, who closed his eyes and played the piano, couldn't help but a warm smile appeared on his mouth. The sound of the piano was gentle and pleasant, full of infinite joy.

The past is vivid in my mind, with endless aftertaste and infinite reminiscence.

In the blink of an eye, from an ignorant child to the ruler who is now ruling the roost, Guo Jia's mind flashed the most images, but it was Cai Yan, Zhen Jiang, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, etc. Recalling the charming Diao Chan last night, Guo Jia mouthed He smiled even more.

Qin melody has such a charm that you can express your mood through it.

Whether it is Sima Xiangru's "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" or Confucius' "Yi Lan Cao", it is the same. Even if it is the empty city plan in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", if Zhuge Liang hadn't met Sima Yi, who is also proficient in piano rhythm, I am afraid he would Playing the zither at the top of the city to meet the enemy will only lead to sheep entering the tiger's mouth. Because Zhuge Liang's qin sounds are as stable as Mount Tai, Sima Yi can't hear any flaws in the sound of the qin. In addition, Zhuge Liang's style is cautious, otherwise how could Sima Yi fall into the empty city trick?If it's a reckless general who doesn't understand elegance, he doesn't care what Zhuge Liang is playing, and he goes directly to the city to find out.

Diao Chan, who is used to serving people, has a very regular daily schedule. When the sky is bright, she will definitely wake up and prepare for her daily work. She will never slack off, no matter the wind or rain, unless she is ill.

For the first time, Diao Chan, who was still awake at dawn and covered with a thin sheet, frowned, and finally opened her bright eyes, which were as soft as water, showing a look of panic.

She straightened up from the bed, and the sheets slipped off her body, and she suddenly realized that she was blind. She pulled up the sheet with both hands and covered it in front of her body. Diao Chan, whose hair was disheveled and somewhat lazy, exuded a mature charm, looked around. There was no one inside, and there was a set of clean clothes beside the bed.

The red-faced Diaochan stared at the door with a guilty conscience, and slowly stretched out one hand to her lower body, her brows were furrowed, and the slight pain and discomfort made her feel like a numb heart.

The white tiger is fierce.

If it really brought bad luck to Guo Jia, what should she do?
If the two ladies knew about this, would they expel her from the mansion?

Diao Chan was uneasy, but in her heart she had an inexplicable joy and the sweetness of getting what she wanted.

Looking down at the stains on the bed, even though her face was flushed like fire, she still stared there for a long time, not even realizing that she was giggling.

"Aren't you satisfied? This life is enough to make you love me. But..."

People are greedy, and beautiful women are no exception.

Diao Chan, who thinks about it day and night, feels that she is too greedy. She has already obtained what she never dared to expect before, but she still wants more.

The expression was mixed with joy and sorrow, changing back and forth, Diao Chan, who used to be pure-hearted, fell into her own depression.

Guo Jia said that she doesn't care that she is a white tiger.

But will it happen?

Just when she was distressed, she vaguely heard the sound of the piano.

It was a sin not to wait for Guo Jia to get up today, Diao Chan patted himself on the head, and muttered to himself with some self-blame: "What are you thinking?"

Regardless of other things, serving Guo Jia well is her wish that will never change from the beginning to the end.

Getting up and getting dressed, Diao Chan hurriedly washed and dressed despite her sore and tired body.

Not long after, Diao Chan, who was engaged in beauty, came to the courtyard, and Guo Jia, who was playing the piano in the pavilion, could be seen in the distance.

The melodious, lingering, heart-stopping music lingers in my ears.

The beautiful eyes are obsessed, Diao Chan stays where she is.

She is not a woman who has nothing but to serve others. She is good at singing, dancing and piano music, and she can hear the heart conveyed in Guo Jia's piano music.

After each sound of the piano was combined into a heart-pounding and involuntarily yearning music, Diao Chan's eyes suddenly turned red, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, worrying about gains and losses.

The body is crumbling.

She didn't know what Guo Jia was thinking in the gazebo at the moment.

In the past, she only danced for Guo Jia in the inner courtyard of the mansion, and Guo Jia was accompanied by Cai Yan, Zhen Jiang, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. She only participated in it occasionally, and stood aside enviously waiting for orders.

Now, she was afraid that Guo Jia would not have her in his heart when he played such emotional music.

The sound of the sky starts, the sound of the sky ends, the lingering sound curls up, and the rhyme of the piano lingers.

Guo Jia slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath as his fingers became hot.

Turning his gaze, Diao Chan came into view not far away, and Guo Jia waved to her tenderly.
