Princess Ning Xin slowly got up and walked to the middle, and without moving her skirt, she bowed to the people above her first, and then lightly opened her mouth and said, "Since Princess Mingyue performed singing and dancing, the minister will present her piano skills."
After seeing the emperor, she nodded, Princess Ning Xin waved to her maid, and the maid serving her took a guqin.
Ye Qingge was a little surprised when he saw the piano. He didn't expect that the "Zuoliang" among the top ten guqins would be in the hands of Princess Ning Xin. This piano is named after "Zuoliang", which shows the characteristics of the sound of this piano , it must be the lingering sound.
It is said that "Zaoliang" was a gift from a man named Hua Yuan to King Zhuang of Chu, and its production date is unknown. King Zhuang of Chu has been playing the qin all day since he got the "Zuoliang", intoxicated by the qin music.
Once, King Zhuang of Chu did not go to court for seven consecutive days, forgetting all important national affairs. The concubine Fan Ji was very anxious, and advised King Zhuang of Chu: "Your Majesty, you are too obsessed with music! In the past, Xia Jie loved the 'Mei Xi' harp so much that he killed himself;
King Zhou misunderstood the sound of mischief, and lost his country and society. Now, the king loves the zither around the beam so much, and if he doesn't come to the court for seven days, is he willing to lose his country and life? "
King Zhuang of Chu fell into deep thought when he heard the words. He couldn't resist the temptation of "wrapping the beam", so he had to bear the pain to part with his favorite, and ordered someone to beat the piano with Tie Ruyi, and the body of the piano was broken into several pieces. Since then, the famous Qin "Zuoliang" envied by thousands of people has never been played.
I didn't expect to see this guqin in Princess Ningxin's hands. Ye Qingge was surprised, and everyone was very surprised. Even Emperor Mingzong didn't know that there was a "Zuoliang" in Dingguogong's mansion before. Slightly deeper.
Princess Ning Xin took the 'Zuoliang' and sat on the qin platform set up for her, and then said to Emperor Mingzong, "Your Majesty, I just got this 'Zuoliang' guqin from a down-and-out member yesterday. I wanted to present it to the emperor, but thinking of its legend, I dare not present it rashly, and today I just let the courtiers come to try their hands and see if this winding beam is worthy of its name."
Emperor Mingzong nodded and said, "Okay, then Princess Ningxin will try it!"
Those who are seated again are looking forward to Princess Ning Xin's piano sound very much, it's 'wound the beam'! It is estimated that even if the piano skills are not good, if you use this "wrap around the beam" to play it, you will go around the beam for three days without noticing it.
The sound of the clanking qin was really as clear as big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate, the big strings were as noisy as torrential rain, and the small strings were like whispers. The ice spring is cold and astringent, and the string is condensed, and the condensate will never stop.
Princess Ning Xin's piano skills are superb, coupled with this guqin 'Zuo Liang', it really went around the beam for three days without realizing it, the sound of the piano stopped for a while, and everyone woke up from the sound of the piano and applauded one after another.
Emperor Mingzong also applauded and said, "This song should only exist in the sky. It's rare to hear it a few times in the world, okay! It's indeed a famous ancient piano. Ning Xin girl, I heard that your piano skills are also very superb. You can play this piano yourself." Keep it, make sure to keep it well, and when the other countries come to pay homage in the future, I will play another song, so that they can also open their eyes! Haha!"
Emperor Mingzong was obviously in a very good mood today, and after Princess Ningxin went back and sat down, Emperor Mingzong said, "In this short period of time, Princess Mingyue's singing and dancing, and Princess Ningxin's piano skills are all impressive. I look at it with admiration, is it time to Dingyuan Hou's Ruyun princess next?"
