Journey to the West: I Am Entertaining in the Great Tang

Chapter 1054 Perfect Performance

The whole stage shook as soon as they came on stage, because it was not a single person, but a square team!

Ten people horizontally, ten people vertically, a hundred handsome men came up in arrogance!

"Mist Grass! Why are there so many people coming up suddenly?"

"What is this for? It's dizzy to see so many people!"

"Yeah, yeah! It's not a war, these people actually came on stage in military uniforms!"

"Are they here to compete? It looks like they are here to fight!"

"The competition of Good Voice is getting more and more hanging, which is too unexpected!"

Amidst the whispers of the audience, these people stood on the stage in a specific formation, stood still and saluted the audience and the instructor in unison.

"Hello, instructors! Hello, audience! We are the Tang Dynasty Band, and the piece we are participating in today is "The Song of the King of Qin"!"

After saying this, all the lights on the field were turned on in an instant, illuminating their bodies in various colors, matching their masculine temperament, majestic and murderous!

It turned out to be performing "The Song of the King of Qin Breaking the Battle"!

This is a court music and dance of the Tang Dynasty, one of the most famous songs and dances.

It was originally used for banquets and later for sacrifices. It belongs to the category of martial arts dances.

This song is a symbol of the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, with extraordinary momentum.

And the King Qin in this song is Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and King Qin was his title before he ascended the throne.

After hearing the introduction, the audience was really excited!

Since Li Shimin ascended the throne, he has done a lot of good things to benefit the people of Tang Dynasty, so that the people have food and clothing, and there are no displaced hungry people.

For a huge country, this is not easy.

Therefore, for Li Shimin, the common people recognize and admire him very much.

This group of contestants actually wanted to sing a song praising King Qin, the audience was of course happy!

"Mist Grass! This group of contestants will definitely make it to the finals, let's go for their song selection!"

"Yes, who in the Three Realms doesn't know that Qin Hao and King Tang are good brothers, if not, how could King Tang come to be a mentor!"

"If you want to win in the competition, you must choose the songs well. Looking at this group of contestants, you must choose the right songs!"

"Before singing, I have already won in terms of momentum and popularity!"

At this time, the music sounded, and the contestants changed their formations and began to perform.

While they were singing, someone posted a few introductory texts on the barrage.

"The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array" is "The Dance of the King of Qin Breaking the Array", also known as "The Dance of Seven Virtues". It is a famous song and dance in the Tang Dynasty. It was originally a military song on the battlefield.

In 620 AD, Qin Wang Li Shimin defeated the rebel Liu Wuzhou and consolidated the newly established Tang regime.

Therefore, his soldiers filled in new lyrics with old songs, and sang a song of praise for Li Shimin: "Shoulu Ciyuan—the head, the prime minister will punish the rebels. The salty song "Broken Array Music" is for the people of Taiping."

After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he personally compiled this piece of music into a dance, and then processed and organized it by court artists to form a huge and magnificent large-scale music and dance.

The tone of Kucha has been mixed into the original tune, which is tactful and pleasant, high-spirited and very appealing.

At the same time, there is a large palace band accompaniment, the big drum is loud, and the sound can be heard for hundreds of miles. It is powerful and moving.

This song and dance made all the officials excited and excited.

When performing this dance, even foreign guests couldn't help dancing along. The symbol of the heyday of the Chinese nation is indeed extraordinary.

"The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array" was very famous at that time, and even spread to foreign countries.

After Master Xuanzang arrived in India, when the King of India Jieri visited him, he asked about this song:

"The teacher came from Zhi 0-0. The disciples heard that there is a song of the King of Qin breaking the formation, singing and dancing. It is unknown who the King of Qin is. What merits and virtues do you have to praise this."

Later, the Japanese envoy Awata Masato brought this song back to Japan.

A few years later, Li Shimin personally designed "The Picture of the King of Qin Breaking the Battle of Music and Dance", according to the picture:

The left side of the dance team is round, and the right side is square; the front imitates a chariot, and the team behind it is spread out like a dustpan extending its wings, forming a fighting posture.

Taizong asked Lu Cai to teach the music to one hundred and twenty-eight musicians according to the picture, and they often practiced wearing armor and holding halberds. This song is the theme song of this dance.

In the first year after Emperor Taizong Li Shimin ascended the throne—the third day of the first month of the first year of Zhenguan, he hosted a banquet for his ministers and played "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array".

In the early years of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty ordered Wei Zheng and others to compose 7 additional lyrics, and Lu Cai cooperated with the rhythm to compose the song, which was designated as "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array". In the seventh year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin made the "Broken Array Dance Picture" by himself, and processed the dance: left circle, right, first deviation, rear Wu, Yu Li, goose Guan, Ji Zhang, wing Shu, staggered flexion and extension, head and tail back and forth, Back and forth stabbing, in the shape of a battle formation. Wufan changes three times, and each changes into four formations, with a total of twelve formations, corresponding to the song festival. Lu Caiyi was ordered to teach 120 musicians to perform in armor, hold halberds, and hold banners, and named it "Dance of Seven Virtues".

Officials of the third rank and above and "barbarian chiefs" are played outside the Xuanwu Gate.

Beat the big drum, the sound shakes hundreds of miles, and the mountains and rivers are majestic.

Later, 2,000 horsemen were used to lead the team into the arena, which was particularly spectacular.

However, the stage of Datang Cinema is limited, so of course it cannot be performed by thousands of people.

Just use a square team to compete.

But the scale of the soundtrack camp is very large, with hundreds of people.

These people stood in the corner of the theater, beating the thundering drums to boost their prestige.

When the deafening drums sounded, everyone in the theater felt their ears were about to burst.

They couldn't help singing and dancing with the square team.

"This kind of game is not allowed!"

Saint Nuwa felt that it was inappropriate, because the scene where everyone sang and danced together affected the performance of the contestants.

At least the instructors couldn't hear their singing clearly, and it was difficult to make a choice.

This is also very unfair to the players.

The audience realized that their singing and dancing were causing trouble to the contestants, so they all sat back quietly in their seats.

This competition has abruptly turned into a concert feeling!

"Stop, stop!"

Taibai Jinxing also shouted: "This can't work, I can't even hear the mess!"

Guanshiyin Bodhisattva also spoke: "You guys should perform again, the scene just now was too chaotic, I couldn't hear it at all, and I couldn't make a decision!"

In this way, the performance of "The Song of the King of Qin" started again.

After a shocking performance, the emotional performance brought the audience to the extreme.

The screaming and majestic performance finally came to an end, and the audience also let out a sigh of relief: "Mist grass, look quickly, they are all soaked!"

"The performance was so good that it infected the audience!"

It turned out that these contestants performed too hard, and all of them were sweating profusely.

What a perfect show!
