The sound of drums rumbling.

A hundred boats compete for the current, and those who strive for the oars are the first; thousands of sails are the best, and those who advance bravely win.

Short slalom is called oars, long slalom is called oars. On the straight channel of Nangang, dragon boatmen paddled hard, and Zhou Dian advanced together. It is difficult to distinguish between good fortune. The crowds of people on both sides of the straits were watching, the mountains were yelling and the seas were thundering, and the joys were thunderous.

Most of the dragon boatmen came from the Ji country's boatmen. Although civilian boats were all changed to mechanical oars, the boating skills must not be abandoned. The purpose of King Ji's launching the dragon boat race is also this. In short, things are extremely useful, and skills must be people-oriented. Similar to riders, professional oars also began to emerge quietly in various port cities in Ji country.

Soon after, the dragon boat will ride alongside the horse racing, becoming another national sport.

This is also something that Liu Bei likes to see.

Before the meeting of the first lunar month, the court will be closed, and all officials will celebrate the New Year. It is appropriate to have fun with the people.

The Ji Kingdom was civilized and military affairs, and the great governance was prosperous. There was no relic in the middle of the country, and the people were well-fed and well-dressed. They were generous and strict, and the administration was clear and clear. They were a happy land on earth.

"Why don't you promote Yuefu?" Shangzhang ordered Zheng Xuan to take the opportunity to make a statement.

"Yuefu" began in Qin, and was later expanded and expanded. It was a temple in charge of music. It was used to train musicians, formulate music scores and collect lyrics. Because of collecting a large number of folk songs, Yuefu also became a unique poetic name, called "Yuefu Poetry". The chief official was called "Yuefu Order". During the reign of Emperor Wu, the Yuefu Order had three ministers. By the end of Emperor Cheng, there were more than 800 Yuefu people, becoming a large-scale music institution. Emperor Ai ascended the throne and issued an edict to abolish Yuefu officials, cut off a large number of Yuefu personnel, and selected their essence to be ruled by Taile Ling. From then on, there was no Yuefu system in the Han Dynasty.

In the Han Dynasty, the government officials who manage music were one of the "Taiyu Le Orders", and the chief official was called "Taiyu Le Orders", which was equivalent to the Taile Orders of the former Han Dynasty and was affiliated to the Taichangqing. The other was the Huangmen Gugong Office, which was under the jurisdiction of Chenghua Orders and was affiliated to Shaofu. The poems of the current Han Dynasty were mainly collected, organized, sung and preserved by the Huangmen Gugong Office.

Everyone in the world knows that there are no eunuchs in Ji State. The Huangmen Promotion Agency is difficult to establish.

Taiyu Music Agency is only in charge of the elegant music of the palace. It is called "Taiyu Music". "Tai" is also called "Da". Cai Yong's "Li Ji Zhi": "Four ranks of Han music: one is Taiyu Music, Dianjiao Temple, Shangling Temple and other food and food; the second is Zhou Song Ya Music, Dianbiyong, Fuying, Shooting, Six Sects, and the country; the third is Huangmen drums, so the emperor feasts and cheers for the ministers; four days short flutes and pine songs are used, which is military music." The four music used by the Han Palace are unified into the "Taiyue Music Office", and the "Taiyue Music Office" is controlled by the "Taiyue Music Office". In the third year of Yongping (60th year), the "Taiyue Music Office" was changed to "Taiyue Music Office", and the "Taiyue Music Order" was changed to "Taiyue Music Order". One Taiyu Music Order was appointed with a rank of 600 stones. Twenty-five subordinates, music workers, and 380 dancers.

In other words, elegant music and folk music belong to two departments.

Yuefu is more about folk music.

Since there is no Huangmen Gongshuo and sing folk music, it is appropriate to establish Yuefu at this time.

"Nothing is good at changing customs and customs."

The "Six Arts" set up by King Su Confucius - rituals, music, archery, calligraphy, and numerology. "Music" ranks before the four arts, second only to "Li". Because the "Music Classics" were lost, it was called the "Five Classics". The importance of music is evident.

"The Book of Rites" also combines "ritual" and "music": "Etiquette is polite to the hearts of the people, and joy is harmonious with the voices of the people."

A new office was of great importance. Knowing that King Ji did not like to waste money on the people, the right prime minister Geng Yong then asked: "Duke Zheng, there is no shortage of musicians in the country, and folk music is also widely sung. Why should a new office be established?"

"The right is quite aware of the combination of Hu and Han in the country, with local accents and slang, southern and northern dialects. Hu Zuo, Hu Qin, Qiang flute, Hu Xuan, and Hu Teng are also widely circulated. The newly established Yuefu should be used to include Hu Yue, and it is also included. There is no greater good to learn from the strengths and weaknesses."

"So that's it." Liu Bei nodded happily: "Who can be the commander of Yuefu?"

Zheng Xuan smiled and said, "Dongling Du Gongliang is the right choice."

At the beginning, King Ji opened the Dongling Mine and minted copper ingots. He also awarded the first Dongling Order to Du Kui and Du Gongliang, who were known as the "Four Stranges of Ji Kingdom" together with Doctor Hua and others.

Du Kui was good at Zhong Lu, and was very convincing, and was invincible. He went to Ji Kingdom and first served as a doctor in the Taixue Temple to teach music. He was then appointed as the Dongling Order, and led his disciples Shao Deng, Zhang Tai, Sang Fu, Chen Wan, etc., and a thousand good craftsmen went north to Yanshan to build Tang Muyi for the princess of Ji Kingdom Liu Meng.

Over the years, a group of people have carried soil to open mountains, dug walls and burned bricks, built stairs and erected water wells and underground channels. They have brought thousands of households on the Yanshan Mountain. Now Tangyi has been formed and is called "Dongling Tongyi". This city is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with steep mountains on the north and slim trees on the north and deep and gentle valleys in the south. It is surrounded by streams, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is a place with the troops of the Khan Lu Shanyu Wuyan of the Youbeiping, and the chariots and horses and pedestrians, and is very prosperous.

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Don't Zheng Duke want to listen to Du Gongliang and play the music of the bells and tripods in person."

"Lord, see clearly." Zheng Xuan smiled and said, "Donglingyi is far away in Yanshan Mountain. It is enough to smel and cast copper. It is enough to be a good craftsman in the temple. Why should Du Gongliang be in charge? The granaries are full and the etiquette is known, and the food is enough and the honor and disgrace are known. At this time, the Yuefu is established, the music and the people's voices are gathered, and the people's voices are harmonious. Du Gongliang is the only one who can do it."

It is worthy of being authentic Confucianism. Zheng Xuan knew very well that solving the desires of the mouth requires urgent care of the mind. The people need higher spiritual food. He also said that it is better to have fun and enjoy the whole family than to have fun. At this time, Yuefu is set up to guide the people to be kind and enjoy the people. It is natural and reasonable.

Liu Bei looked at the left-ranking king Huang Chengyan: "The position of Dongling, there is a suitable choice for the state order."

"The great craftsman Chai Yu can take this great task." Huang Chengyan stood up and reported to him. Huang Chengyan went to Ji State to receive a higher position from the north and was about to be a craftsman in the temple, and then he was relieved. He was afraid that his lord would kill the donkey, but then he was afraid that he would be in trouble. Until Huang Chengyan succeeded as a master and also took the command of the Left Kingdom. The craftsmen of Ji State finally got relieved. He even put on a mourning ceremony in the Ji State, and even held the ceremony of his juniors, and gave funerals to the Right Kingdom. How could he not be grateful? The loyal salary owner will never be dissatisfied.

Liu Bei asked the general again: "How is Chai Yu?"

"Chai Yu is clever and talented, and has made many of her works in her body, which is highly valued and loved by the Chinese people." Su Bo replied: "It is the best choice for Dongling Ling."

"In this way, Du Gongliang ordered his disciples to return and build the Yuefu. He appointed Chai Yu as the Dongling Order and took charge of the casting matters." King Ji then issued the king's order.

"Here." The Secretary of the Central Committee, Zhao E, received the order.

"Rites, music, punishment and governance, and do everything in harmony without contradicting them, then the kingly way will be ready." Mr. Cai stood up and bowed: "It is joyful and congratulated."

King Ji also smiled: "Why is there no poem to congratulate me?"

Then there was a guest of honor who bowed to the ground and sang loudly.

After singing the song, King Ji smiled again: "Will there be no wine if there is poetry?"

Then the palace maids took the jade and nectar, and each handed a bottle.

Liu Bei smiled and said, "I am happy to congratulate you and drink it, and I warm you up with my hands through the pot."

The King of Ji said it into a sentence. Everyone on the table thought about the next sentence.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the young child's voice: "The guest thought about the next sentence, and it was urgent to come back."

Liu Bei couldn't help but smile: "What a 'embarrassing person'!"

"Who is singing?" Sima Hui, the priest of the disciple, asked with a smile.

Then a girl stood up pretty and said, "Cai Yan talks too much."
