Li Xuanba’s memorial talks about the decisive card that had been prepared long ago.
Yang Guang was quite good at vocal music. Pei Yun summoned the music households in the world and promoted more than 30,000 people in the palace to please Yang Guang. He later became one of the “five nobles” in Yang Guang’s court.
Song Ci is also known as Quzi Ci. Like “poetry”, “poetry” was originally a folk song; later, literati participated in the creation, and the Book of Songs was already quite literary; later, the rhythm became more and more strict, and quatrains and regular verses separated from music and became a style of literature.
Now Quzi Ci is in the period of “folk songs”; in the Tang Dynasty, “folk songs” became “literary lyrics”; the Song Dynasty entered the peak of the creation of Quzi Ci, and the rhythm was as fixed as the development of poetry; after the Song Dynasty, Ci departed from music and became a style of literature.
Li Xuanba alone, if you want to take the “folk songs” a big step forward, it is impossible to enter the “literary songs” in advance.
But Yang Guang can.
Even if Li Xuanba wants to please Yang Guang, his small amount of simple morality will make it impossible for him to do things that harm the people.
It is impossible to collect tens of thousands of musicians for Yang Guang. Li Xuanba is preparing to open a new music track for Yang Guang – let all literati write lyrics for Yang Guang.
You can write the song first and then write the lyrics, or you can write the lyrics first and then compose the music.
Yang Guang is a person who is tired of the new and tired of the old. Now there is no new feeling for 30,000 musicians. Let literati from all over the world write lyrics for him, and then he let the musician compose music according to the lyrics, create a new style of literary style with his personal hobbies in vocal music, turn Song lyrics into Sui lyrics, and usher in the cultural prosperity of Quzi lyrics in advance. Isn’t this very consistent with Yang Guang’s “big cause”?
Li Xuanba’s memorial perfectly hit Yang Guang’s heart.
Yang Guang has always believed that he is both civil and military. What he wants to create is not only the prosperous era of martial arts, but also the prosperous era of culture.
Yang Guang likes writing poetry very much. His poems are indeed well written, but he is very jealous and cannot tolerate other people’s talents above him.
The deaths of Xue Daoheng and Wang Zhou have nothing to do with poetry. But after Xue Daoheng’s death, Yang Guang once said, “Can you be more able to be the ’empty beam swallow falling into the mud’?”, and after Wang Zhou’s death, he said, “‘The grass in the courtyard is green at will, can you be the same?”, and he was worried about Xue Daoheng and Wang Zhou’s poems that were better than him.
Yang Guang wants to be the first in everything.
Li Xuanba turned “folk songs” into a memorial of popular styles in the world, which not only satisfies Yang Guang’s preference for vocal music, but also satisfies Yang Guang’s ambition to establish a sect in the literary world.
Yang Guang was so excited that he actually stood up and hugged Li Xuanba: “It’s my nephew!”
Li Xuanba was stiff: “Your Majesty, please let my nephew come down, my nephew has grown up!”
Li Shimin’s mouth twitched slightly, his hand was put together in his sleeve, pinching the back of his hand, and then he endured it.Stop smiling.
Yang Guang put Li Xuanba on the ground, rubbed Li Xuanba’s head hard, and smiled happily, “The poems that my predecessors have written for hundreds of years, it is indeed time to change them! I ordered you to be Xielu Lang and make a new voice for me!”
Li Xuanba knelt down and accepted the order: “I obey the order! Thank you Your Majesty!”
Yang Guang helped Li Xuanba up and patted Li Xuanba’s head: “Since Li Sanlang is an eighth-rank official, the eighth-rank official is not suitable for you. From today on, you and Li Erlang are both Huairen Wei of the Eighth-rank official. Li Sanlang is a scholar, and Li Erlang can shoot tigers. If you were not young, at least you should start from the fifth-rank official.”
The Great Sui Dynasty took Sanshi official as its rank. After Yang Guang combined the “real” of the scattered official and the “name” of the scattered official into one, the new scattered official rank is the official’s level.
Xielulang is an eighth-rank official in Taichang Temple. Yang Guang also mentioned the scattered officials of Li Shimin and Li Xuanba to the eighth rank. When Li Xuanba entered Taichang Temple on duty, he did not have to salute officials with lower official ranks than his rank.
Li Shimin and Li Xuanba both thanked him happily.
Yang Guang said again: “Li Sanlang is young and does not need to be on duty every day. You only need to fill in the lyrics and hand them over to the Taile Administration Order.”
Yang Guang thought for a while and changed his words, “It’s better to leave it to me directly. After today, you have to work harder and write the lyrics for me! First set up ten lyrics, so I can summon literati from all over the world to write the lyrics for me!”
Li Xuan said: “Yes. Your Majesty, please rest assured. I have already prepared when I wrote the memorial.”
Yang Guang smiled and said: “You should be prepared too.”
