Chapter 44 Campfire Singing(1/2)

The ancients lacked entertainment projects.

When he first arrived in the Tang Dynasty, there was no computer or mobile phone at the beginning, Li Yuanai only felt that everyone was going to be ruined.

But as we truly integrate into this era, we will gradually find that the ancients did not lack the spirit of entertainment.

And there are many places to play, such as banquets.

Banquets were the most popular entertainment session for the ancients.

Li Yuanai was not interested in hunting, but he was very excited about the bonfire party at night.

Since Li Shimin was ill, he has not attended any lively banquets.

It is really better to have fun with the singers in my house than to have such a large-scale party.

When Li Yuanai went out to take a hot spring bath, the left-behind guards and the Grand Secretary were diligently preparing for the party.

Various tables, bonfires have been built, and wine has been prepared, just waiting for nightfall.

In the spring hunting of the Imperial College, the safety of students is the most important.

It is a customary thing for the students not to attend the meeting before they arrived.

Many Grand Secretary count the number of people.

Li Yuanai was playing with the big tiger. The fourteen people under his jurisdiction had already returned. He saw that Li Jingye and Cheng Boxian were hostile to each other and decided to play. In order to laugh, they could not be late.

They have returned in time before the specified time has come.

Cheng Boxian took the lead. With the help of evil dogs, lynxes and eagles, their team gained a lot.

The fruits of their team can be compared with the harvest of the whole team coming back early.

However, there is nothing comparable to this. Cheng Boxian and the others are all from the second or third generation of officials, and they are affiliated with the generals. They are riding and shooting and possessing a congenital advantage. Even if they win the first place, they are not proud.

As soon as Cheng Boxian arrived, Li Jingye came, as if he had agreed.

Cheng Boxian looked at Li Jingye with a proud look, wanting to show off his gains to him, but after seeing Li Jingye and his group of people's wild game, their face suddenly became ugly and they retreated angrily.

Li Jingye was surprised not to show off to Cheng Boxian, but just reported to Li Yuanai for his return.

Li Yuanai was a little surprised that Li Jingye did not show off to Cheng Boxian.

"Still change?"

Li Yuanai asked.

Li Jingye leaned forward and whispered: "This little fool from Cheng's family has been following his father since he was a child. He is not his opponent in hunting, regardless of martial arts, archery skills or hunting skills. In addition, this guy has a wealth of wealth, vicious dogs, lynxes, and eagles. There is no possibility of winning here. He talked about a few friends at the beginning and divided the people evenly. The winning is not glorious and not worth showing off. He just doesn't want to see this guy show off."

Li Yuanai smiled when she heard this, but she didn't reveal it.

Li Jingye won by means of connections, and there is nothing to say.

If you are complacent and rely on this method to force yourself to show off, then Li Yuanai will look down on Li Jingye three points.

In this situation, there is no need to mix it with it.

Li Yuanai naturally forgot the victory or defeat.

Li Jingye didn't care, and Cheng Boxian felt relieved to save his face.

As night fell, all the students who went out to hunt returned.

The bonfire party has officially begun.

Ancient banquets were very particular, and every seat must be arranged in detail.

There has been such a thing in history, when Li Shimin invited important officials to banquets.

Then he found someone's seat above him and was furious. Li Daozong, who was sitting at his head, explained to him that he was a peacemaker, but he ended up beating Yuchi Gong.

Although it is because Yuchi Gong is proud of his merits, it can also be seen how much attention he attaches to the order of this ranking.

If you can arrange this position properly, you can be considered a talent in this era. People who are not smart and well-rounded are not competent.

However, Imperial College is not short of such talents.

The Imperial College is one of the most polite places in the world, and he is very skilled in the arrangement of seats.

As the prince and grandson, Li Yuanai sat at the top.

Kong Zhiyuan was the Imperial College Priest, and the descendants of Confucius and Kong Yingda sat side by side with him.

The two of them are the most special, occupants in the main position and the main position.

After them, it was the Grand Principal, the Bachelor's, and then the students with excellent grades.

They have a large number of people, so it is impossible for them to only have one seat.

But they belong to the chairman, with the largest number of people and the largest seats.

Cheng Boxian, Li Jingye, Pei Xingjian and others are all in the chairman.

Pei Xingjian must be because of his grades. As for Cheng Boxian and Li Jingye’s grades or his father, it’s unknown whether he is a grade.

Kim Seung-man and Fuyulong were also able to become the chairman as friends from other countries.

This also made Li Yuanai a little unhappy. Jin Shengman's status is higher than Fuyu Long and is in the upper head, but Fuyu Long sat down at her lower head, staring at her a little fiercely.

As the Imperial College Priest, Kong Zhiyuan gave a passionate opening remark, and finally ended with a passage from "The Book of Rites: University":

"In ancient times, those who want to be virtuous in the world should first govern the country; those who want to be victorious must first govern the country; those who want to be victorious must first cultivate their bodies; those who want to be victorious must first correct their hearts; those who want to be victorious must first be sincere in their intentions; those who want to be sincere in their intentions, first obtain knowledge, and achieve knowledge in the study of things. After the matter is structured, then know the truth is sincere, then the mind is sincere, then the mind is upright, then the body is upright, then the family is united, then the country is governed, then the world is peaceful."

This reminds these students who are about to enter society to maintain their true intentions.

After the speech, I served wine and meat.

There was no saying in ancient times that minors were not allowed to drink alcohol without the rules of children.

Of course, the main reason is that the wine level in this era is not high. As long as it is not like Li Bai, he drinks it with a wine pot and pours it into his mouth whenever he has a disagreement, and he is not very drunk.

Drinking at banquets is a skill that must be mastered, so there is no saying that alcohol is prohibited.

The banquet activities are for students to sign up for themselves.

This era emphasizes versatility and singing.

Li Yuanai watched it with relish.

The last part of the group project is almost fixed.

The King of Qin broke the formation and joy.

A banquet without the Qin King's music breaking the formation was not considered a banquet in this era.

After all, the main theme is not just modern.

There was also an ancient time when Li Shimin tried his best to produce this song of singing. Wasn’t it just to make people all over the world praise him?

It has to be said that the music of King Qin breaking the formation is indeed a classic.

This is like the old Qin people shouted, "The old Qin will revive my rivers and mountains. The blood will not flow dry, and the battle will not stop until death."

The Qin King's music to break the formation is a symbol of the Tang Dynasty and the national anthem.

It symbolizes the invincible spirit of the Tang Dynasty.

Every time Li Yuanai listens, he feels inspiring.

The end of the Qin King's music breaking the formation is the most anticipated link that Li Yuanai is most looking forward to.

Toast and sing.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, singing and dancing flourished.

Being able to sing and dancing is not a matter of a singer. A true scholar not only knows how to eat, drink and comment, but also has to be able to dance and sing at the critical moment.

At banquets, wine cannot be toasted casually according to different occasions.

This kind of banquet belongs to the scribes, and toasts must be sung.

It’s okay if you can’t sing a few lines, but if you don’t sing, then you’re younger brother. Even if you don’t rush you to get off the table, you won’t be qualified to raise your glass and drink, and no one will pay attention to you.

Unless you make up for the song.

At the banquet, I watched others drink and joke, but I was like a wooden man, so I felt so uncomfortable.

A student who is about to graduate from the Imperial College raised his glass to worship Kong Zhiyuan and said, "Teacher, in another month, the student will leave school and go to Jingxiang to report his work. The mountains are high and the road is far away. I wonder if I can see you again. Can the Master drink this cup and sing a song for the students?"

Kong Zhiyuan was used to seeing the world, so he generously drank the wine and said, "You call me Master, I will give you a song "Lamb Fur"."

He said, tapping on the edge of the bowl and singing:

The lamb's fur is like a wet man, and he is truly a straightforward man. His son will sacrifice his life unswervingly.

The lamb is decorated with leopards, and Kong Wu is powerful. His son is the governor of the country.

The lamb is furnished and the three heroes are brilliant. His son is the country's good luck."

This song is a poem in "The Book of Songs: Zheng Feng", which says that the ancient gentlemen used their dynasty to be in a dynasty, and people used their clothes to describe people. From the texture and decoration of the court robes made of lambskin, they reminded the morality and talent of the officials wearing court robes.

It is precisely because I hope that my students can become an official who serves the country and the people and has noble morals.

The other party bowed deeply and said, "Students keep in mind the teachings of father and son."
