Back to the end of Ming Dynasty to be a warlord

Chapter 85 You Are Afraid Of Me Too
Today, when Yang Chao invited himself to Jinchai Tower, he thought about it again, and couldn't help worrying whether Yang Chao's important event was delayed, after all, it was a few days ago.

So some hesitation, but always have to speak out.

"Ah, what?"

But I didn't expect that Yang Chao didn't hear clearly. Firstly, it was because the music was too loud, and secondly, Yang Chao didn't pay attention.

But Yang Chao finally turned his head: "Brother Hu, what did you say?"

Hu Quan said, "Xu Zhongxiao went to Beijing a few days ago."

Yang Chao was taken aback: "He went to Beijing?"

Yang Chao asked Hu Quan to keep an eye on him, and if there was an accident, he would ask Hu Quan to find him, but Hu Quan seldom looked for him, because Xu Zhongxiao had been hiding at home since he was released from the prison in Jiangning County.

But I didn't expect to come to Beijing suddenly.

What is he going to do in Beijing?

The reason why Yang Chao asked his friends to help him watch was because Daxin Xu Zhongxiao would play tricks and deal with him secretly.

If it were Yang Chao himself, if someone killed him and put him in prison, he would almost be exiled to the army, then he would not let it go when he came out. Yang Chao believed that Xu Zhongxiao was also such a person, and believed that Xu Zhongxiao must always think of revenge on himself.

But what did he go to Beijing for?
Seeing Yang Chao's deep thought, Hu Quan was suddenly a little nervous, afraid that Yang Chao would suffer losses because of his own negligence.

"Brother Yang, is it okay?"

Hu Quan asked worriedly.

Yang Chao said: "It doesn't matter? What does it matter!"

In fact, Hu Quan thought that he was delaying Yang Chao's important event, and Yang Chao thought that Hu Quan was asking Xu Zhongxiao what would be the impact of going to Beijing.

Of course Hu Quan didn't delay Yang Chao's affairs, but Xu Zhongxiao's entry to Beijing could not have no effect, it's just that Yang Chao didn't want his friends to worry.

After hearing this, Hu Quan relaxed, and sighed, "It's okay."

At this time, the music on the stage had stopped, and the audience sat up straight, of course, mainly the officials and literati in the first two rows, and only a few wealthy businessmen in the back understood, most of them were very confused. Just for fun.

In the final analysis, Chinese culture is still a literati culture, so literati are proud of it and despise other classes.

This song "Ambush from Ten Sides" has 100 people accompaniment, not to mention the accompaniment, just a hundred people performing is enough to make this already very imposing song even more imposing, with the addition of Gu Mei The performing arts are more soothing and moderate, and the rhythm is better grasped.

Let the atmosphere immediately push to a climax from the very beginning.

Then Gu Mei started to sing the lyrics, all of which were slow.

The little songs played and sung by singers are generally divided into three types, Xiaoling, Zhongtune and Slow Ci.

These three kinds of ditties are distinguished by the number of words and their own rhythm. Generally, Xiao Ling has a bright rhythm and concise words, so it will end soon.

The word "Ling" in Xiaoling comes from Jiuling, which is generally used to persuade people to drink, so it is not suitable for singing for too long.

Xiaoling's tunes are extracted from the popular long tunes and big tunes in the past, and generally have a fast-paced climax.

The number of words in the middle tune is more than that of Xiaoling, and the music is slightly slower than Xiaoling, so the singing time is a little longer. If Xiaoling is the climax of a song, then the middle tune is a short song.

Slow words are also called long tunes, the number of words is generally close to or more than a hundred words, and the tune is more soothing, so it can be sung for a period of time. It is the most suitable song for stage performances. One time, no repetition, Yang Chao feels that this is somewhat similar to the pop songs of later generations.

Similar to popular songs, new words are generally more popular than old words, just like new songs are more popular than old songs. The difference is that each song of popular songs is different, and slow words become There are only words, but the tune remains unchanged.

Maybe there are fewer people who understand rhythm than those who can write lyrics in ancient times, so this kind of music is fixed, and literati write lyrics, or it is for the convenience of literati to write lyrics in a fixed format, so the music is also fixed, just like Poetry has only five-character, six-character, and seven-character rhythms.

A slow song can be sung for a long time, and some even last for a quarter of an hour (more than ten minutes).

Gu Mei's singing is naturally excellent, and there are hundreds of people accompanying her. When she plays the pipa, there are mostly flutes and flutes behind her. Stand out, that's what the accompaniment does.

Most of Gu Mei's lyrics are relatively new. Although they are not as famous as "Yangliuan Xiaofengwanyue", they are new words after all. Everyone has the problem of liking the new and disliking the old. Who will listen to "Yangliuan" every day.

In the brothels on the Qinhuai River, there is an unwritten rule that no one else can sing those words that a famous prostitute sings.

For example, Li Xiangjun can't sing the lyrics that Gu Mei sang. Of course, there are many sung songs. The lyrics sung by famous prostitutes like Li Xiangjun and Gu Mei will be sung by many people, but these sung are often A poor singer.

The famous courtesans who are really famous and status all sing their own lyrics, just like the original singers of later generations, and their names slowly spread along with the poems they sang, the more famous courtesans , the better the poetry, the easier it is to sing, the greater the fame of the courtesans, and the fame of the poems.

Therefore, many talented scholars sang poems to famous prostitutes. The more famous courtesans, the easier it is for their poems to become famous, and the more famous poems, the more famous courtesans are for them. The two complement each other.

Therefore, the famous prostitutes in Qinhuai River like to make friends with talented men, and talented men are also willing to make friends with famous prostitutes, and each has his own needs.

The long poem that Yang Chao copied to Li Xiangjun made Gu Mei envious, because that poem might become an eternal masterpiece.

If there are more poems like this, Gu Mei's reputation may rebound and overwhelm Li Xiangjun again.

But if Li Xiangjun sings a few more masterpieces, Gu Mei's fame will be further expanded.

This is why Gu Mei forced Yang Chao to compose a poem for her.

Yang Chao seemed to be focused, but his ears were not listening and his eyes were not looking.

He was just thinking about what Xu Zhongxiao was going to Beijing for.

Yang Chao thought over and over again, he didn't think that Xu Zhongxiao was going to Beijing to plan to harm him, because the Xu family's relationship was mainly in Nanjing, and going to Beijing was equivalent to leaving his network, even if he could make friends with one or two powerful people in Beijing, it would not be worth the loss. .

Then Xu Zhongxiao went to Beijing just because he wanted to leave Nanjing.

Thinking of this, Yang Chao snorted coldly in his heart: So you are also afraid of me!

Yang Chao has always been wary of Xu Zhongxiao harming himself, and even more afraid of Xu Zhongxiao harming his family.

Xu Zhongxiao went to Beijing by himself and left Nanjing, so he must have the same idea as Yang Chao.

Yang Chao was afraid that Xu Zhongxiao would take revenge on his family with despicable means, but Xu Zhongxiao was also afraid that Yang Chao would deal with him.

This is the same as people are afraid of tigers and wolves, but tigers and wolves are not necessarily afraid of people.

So Yang Chao sent his family to Hangzhou, and Xu Zhongxiao himself went to Beijing, in fact, they were all avoiding each other.
