Chapter 471: How the Song Dynasty Died

Wang Yu still couldn't hold back his curiosity, and went outside Shen Long's house without knowing it, only to hear the singing of Zhou Nan and Chu Yun'er inside, but they couldn't be seen from the window, only Shen Long was sitting on the desk. busy before.

"Yuanze hasn't slept yet? Why don't you come in and take a look for me!" Shen Long's voice came from inside while he was struggling, and the window opened immediately, but there was a big lamp as bright as a bright moon above Shen Long's head, shining brightly. The room was as bright as day, looking around, Shen Long was still the only one in the room, and the two girls were not seen at all.

"So... I'm bothering you." I don't know how Daoist Shen found out, Wang Yu was puzzled, and Shen Long didn't seem to be going to sleep, so he just opened the door and walked in.

Entering inside, I saw an open book-like object placed on Shen Long's desk, and the upright side was like a mirror, which was exactly the scene where the two of them enjoyed the singing and dancing of the two girls in Biyuexuan just now. It turns out that the singing came from here. Could it be that the old alchemist Shaowen recruited Mrs. Li's soul for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?

"Yuanze, come and help me take a look and listen. I recorded Zhou Nan and Chu Yun'er's singing and dancing today. Didn't you say that they occasionally made mistakes in singing and dancing, so I replaced the mistakes with the correct ones, but I don't quite understand these things, can you see if there is anything wrong?" Shen Long turned the object, just to face Wang Yu, and then the screen changed to when the two had just entered the room, and the singing and singing started again. dance.

"Oh, it's the same with the movable type printing that Daoist Shen showed my father and son in the morning?" Now Wang Yu seemed to understand, he moved closer, watched the song and dance performance seriously, and said to Shen Long from time to time Some erroneous places, I saw Shen Long holding a black mouse-like thing in one hand and pressing it a few times, those sung wrong places were switched to the correct voice, but these voices should be sung correctly the last few times Yes, I don't know how he did it.

After tossing for more than an hour, when Chu Yun'er sang Liu Sanbian's "Yulin Bell" again, Wang Yu couldn't find a single mistake, even if Chu Yun'er is the best singer in Beijing who is good at singing Liu Ci. As a prostitute, I can't guarantee that there will be no mistakes in the lyrics, and there will be more or less omissions every time, but this time, there is absolutely no flaw.

"This is really... this is really...the methods of the immortal family are indeed omnipotent!" Now in the mirror, Chu Yun'er's libretto is even better than her own, and she can continue to sing without resting at all. Wang Yu didn't know what to say.

Shen Long yawned a lot, "Okay, let's go here first today, I'm going to rest, and it seems that Yanze will still be working tomorrow? Then I will go to Biyuexuan together when you are on duty. Shall we re-record Zhou Nan's Yan Shu lyrics?"

Just now, Wang Yu discovered that when Zhou Nan sang Yan Shu's song "The Pear Blossom Courtyard Melts into the Moon, and the Catkin Pond is Gentle Breeze", there was a place where he sang it wrong several times. He didn't notice it at the time, and now he can only go back and re-record it.

"So...very good.

"Wang Yu naturally would not refuse, and he got up and was ready to leave.

"Wait a minute, I forgot to give you two things just now." Shen Long got up and touched from his sleeve, took out two lamp-like objects and put them on the table, pressed the button on the lamp holder, and the lamp immediately It was on, and although the light was not as good as the Haoyue lantern above his head, it was countless times better than the candles they usually used.

"Take it under the sun for a few hours during the day, and then you can use it at night. You and your father think that reading and writing at night is a must. Using this is better than using candles for your eyes." Shen Long handed the two lamps to Wang. Xie, "I'm going to sleep, let them call me for dinner at noon tomorrow, don't disturb me in the morning."

"Thank you, Daoist Shen, I will go and tell them immediately." These two lamps were good things, Wang Yu took them and left gratefully.

It’s just that when the door was closed, I could vaguely hear Shen Long muttering in the room, “Hey, I really want to find two big men from Kansai to sing ‘Da Jiangdong Going to the Waves’, but unfortunately this poem was written by Su Shi in the fifth year of Yuanfeng. It’s not good to expose it in advance.”

When he came outside, Wang Anshi's study room was still brightly lit. Wang Yu held the light and pushed the door in. Seeing his father reading the "Biography of Shang Yang", he quickly turned on the light and put it on the desk. thing.

"It's really a good thing!" Wang Anshi was also full of admiration for this lamp, "I heard that officials come in and read memorials every day until late at night. It would be great if there was this lamp."

"Father, just now Daoist Shen said that these two lamps are for my father and son. If they are dedicated to the officials...and if the officials ask about the origin of the two lamps... .. "Wang Yu's eyes fell on Wang Anshi's "Biography of Wang Anshi" when he was speaking, what would happen if the officials read "Biography of Wang Anshi"?

"This...then let's wait!" Wang Anshi hesitated. Daoist Shen didn't mean that. It's too much, I don't know much about the disposition of the officials, and it's really not appropriate to expose Shen Long's existence prematurely.

"Then, father, the child is going to rest first, and father should also rest earlier!" Wang Yu bowed and retreated.

In the next few days, Shen Long and Wang Yu became frequent visitors to brothels in central and central Beijing. As long as there were famous prostitutes with outstanding libretto, they would visit them one by one and present them with undeniable treasures, so that these famous prostitutes They sang Liu Ci, Yan Shu Ci, Zhang Xian Ci, and the new Su Ci over and over again, even Li Yu Ci, which was somewhat taboo.

Every time these two people left after listening to it, they didn't sing with these famous prostitutes, and they didn't stay overnight, which was quite confusing.

Back at Wang Anshi's mansion, Wang Yu and Shen Long trimmed the pieces together, making sure that each capital was trimmed to perfection, while Wang Anshi carefully studied his own biographies and Shang Yang's biographies in his study with bright lights. , and to deal with daily official affairs, revise the "Zhi Zi of Nothing to Do in a Hundred Years of This Dynasty".

After Shen Long finished pruning, Wang Yu went back to his study and discussed these two biographies with his father. Unfortunately, as Shen Long said, the history books compiled by the barbarians are rather crude. I don't know, which made Wang Anshi quite depressed.

When he came back from the imperial court and saw Shen Long, Wang Anshi finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Master Shen, I wonder if you can lend me the "History of the Song Dynasty" and the "Records of the Song Dynasty"?"

"Want to know how Da Song died? It's fine, I don't want to go out today, so let me tell you!" Shen Long turned and entered the room.
