Chapter 153 My Young Master Listens to a Song
Xiang Wangzhi was very proud and everyone looked at Chen Changan curiously.
Is this kid really capable and can surpass Liu Ruge in piano skills?
Chen Changan gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master, you really would rather die than let my fellow Taoist die!"
"My two brushes met Liu Ruge, just like a robber met the ancestor of thieves. How can I face people with my face?"
"Brother Changan, you have misunderstood me."
Xiang Wang whispered, "You are the top scholar, how can you not know music?"
"Even if you can't, you will still lose. I can always find an excuse to get out of this situation. This way, the royal family can save face, right?"
"you……"
Chen Changan opened his mouth wide, having nothing to say.
Who said the prince is stupid? Apart from poetry and songs, he is smarter than a monkey!
"Chang'an, Chang'an..."
Liu Ruge muttered a few words, then chuckled and said, "Master Chang'an, since your young master has said so, can you let me see your piano skills?"
Betrayed by Xiang Wang, Chen Changan could only grit his teeth and walk to the front row.
"I can't play the piano."
Chen Changan knows his own limitations, so he decided not to embarrass himself by showing off his little piano skills.
"You can't play the piano?" Liu Ruge's voice was cold, "Could it be that the two gods of wealth saw that I was humble and deliberately teased me?"
What are you talking about if you can't play the piano?
This is Xiaoxiang Tower, Liu Ruge’s territory.
Hearing her say this, all the men laughed out loud. Liu Ruge definitely couldn't go to accompany the God of Wealth.
Chen Changan shook his head again: "No, my young master knows that I have a sharp ear, so he pointed out the flaws in the song to Miss Liu."
Liu Ruge stared at the two of them in a daze.
Liu Ruge has been in Xiaoxiang Tower for a long time. Her songs are widely sung and no one has pointed out any flaws.
Is this God of Wealth mentally retarded?
"A flaw?" Liu Ruge sneered, "Even the master of Chinese music admires my music, so how could there be a flaw?"
Liu Ruge pressed forward aggressively with an arrogant look on her face.
Chen Changan was also a little angry.
It's not me who asked to come out, why are you coming at me?
Anyway, it has come to this. Chen Changan gritted his teeth and said, "I am a lowly person doing business. Business requires profit and nothing will happen early."
"If I'm wrong, my young master will pay for the entire meal. If I'm right, can Miss Liu agree to one of my conditions?"
Liu Ruge really sneered.
This guy is so cunning!
His young master had clearly said that he would pay the bill, so now it was equivalent to him not having to pay anything and just asking him to agree to his conditions?
However, Liu Ruge was confident in her own music: "Okay, what are the conditions?"
Chen Changan looked at Liu Ruge with a smile, his meaning was self-evident.
Xiang Liuli saw Chen Changan's gaze and her body trembled: "Asshole, Chen asshole!"
"His request must be to let Liu Ji accompany Xiang Wang for one night. How could the queen of our Great Chu be born a prostitute?"
"Or is that bastard Chen in cahoots with her?"
Zhao Qingcheng didn't say anything this time, just lowered her head and remained silent.
Chen Changan smiled and said, "It's not a very difficult condition. Let's talk about it later."
"Miss Liu, there are at least three flaws in your piano playing just now."
Liu Ruge frowned and listened to what Chen Changan said.
"First, the music of our Great Chu emphasizes the correspondence between the five notes and the five internal organs."
“The drum is in the heart, the zither is in the liver, the flute is in the spleen, the se is in the lungs, and the xun is in the kidneys. But you cannot mobilize all the emotions of a person with just the zither. This is the first flaw.”
Liu Ruge gritted her teeth. In fact, the melody was the same no matter which dynasty it was from.
Liu Ruge could not refute this point.
"Secondly, it seems that Miss Liu is too proud to allow others to play with her."
"You want to vent your emotions, but the more you do this, the more artificial the sound becomes, and it loses its natural feel."
Chen Changan raised three fingers: "Third, Miss Liu obviously has no one she misses, but she said that she misses someone so much that her soul disappears. Don't you think it's funny?"
"The music you are playing now should be 'Young men from Wuling compete to tie their hair, and the number of red silks is unknown'. This is more appropriate for the time and the scene."
After Chen Changan said this, all the talented people fell silent.
Even Xiang Liuli kept nodding.
She was well versed in music, and when she wrote lyrics, she only cared about the forms such as rhyme and parallelism, and never felt the true feelings in the lyrics.
After hearing what Chen Changan said, she realized that she was wrong before.
Liu Ruge bit her teeth lightly and nodded happily: "Sir, you are very talented. I did not think about it."
"But, what is it that you want me to do?"
Xiang Wang was overjoyed. He gently waved his folding fan and acted like a talented and romantic man.
What else could it be? Of course, it was Liu Ruge spending a wonderful night with him.
Chen Changan shook his head and chuckled: "This is easy, as long as Miss Liu is willing to move and give it to my young master..."
Sonorous!
Xiang Liuli drew his sword, the top scholar is going too far!
Shame on, shame on you!
Liu Ruge's eyes narrowed, flashing with hatred: "How about giving it to your young master? Is it... that my mouth is going to suffer?"
Everyone was shocked!
It's very obvious, very obvious!
What else can the mouth do besides speaking?
This servant deserves to die!
Xiang Wang looked at Liu Ruge with a longing glimmer in his eyes.
But Chen Changan said, "...Can you sing a little song for my young master?"
Pfft!
Xiang Wang sat down on the ground and looked at Chen Changan angrily.
I'm all fucking ready, and you're throwing in the towel at the last minute?
Liu Ruge widened her eyes, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
Sing a little song, that's pretty good.
"Sir, am I... sure I didn't hear it wrong?" Liu Ruge couldn't believe it.
After all, she is the most beautiful girl, with countless admirers in Xiaoxiang Tower, yet she doesn't have that kind of requirement?
"of course not."
Chen Changan patted his chest.
If he really made excessive demands, it would be uncertain whether he and the prince would be able to leave Xiaoxiang Tower.
Even if he left, would the emperor kill him if he knew that Chen Changan brought the prince to Xiaoxiang Tower and caused trouble?
Liu Ruge was relieved and said proudly: "I just don't know what you want to hear, sir?"
"Young Master, Liu Ruge is asking you a question." Chen Changan gave Xiang Wang the choice.
Xiang Wang was angry, but he didn't want to embarrass Chen Changan in public: "Young Master is so angry, how can he have the heart to listen to the music?"
Chen Changan knew that he was angry and smiled.
"Look how angry you made our young master. Hey... I heard that the girls in the brothel can sing the Eighteen Touches?"
Chen Changan raised his voice a little: "I wonder if Miss Liu can sing?"
Chen Changan's voice was not loud, and everyone's eyes widened.
What did Chen Changan say?
Eighteen...touch?
The guests at Xiaoxiang Tower were all stunned for a moment, then they covered their mouths and chuckled.
This servant was pretty good and did not let Liu Ruge go to accompany the young master.
As for singing Eighteen Touches...
Damn, isn’t this what the courtesan in a brothel does?
"What did you say?"
Liu Ruge suddenly felt a little angry. Chen Changan was so brave!
She is a dignified courtesan, how can she be compared with those lowly sisters? Chen Changan is deliberately embarrassing her!
Zhao Qingcheng opened her mouth slightly with a smile on her face.
Seeing Liu Ruge angry, Xiang Liuli nodded with satisfaction: "Qingcheng, you are right. Asshole Chen really doesn't play by the rules."
"Let the Oiran sing the 18th song... Humph, only he could come up with this idea."
"Miss Liu, is your hearing not good? You need to get treatment soon."
Chen Changan pretended not to understand Liu Ruge's anger and his expression was very innocent.
I told you to show off, but this time you’re silent, right?
