Rewrite777 49 Book Of Music

A roll of bamboo slips was spread out on the table.

The Bamboo slips are made up of hundreds of pieces of bamboo that are about two feet long and about 2 fingers wide. Each piece of bamboo is written in a line. The word is Daxie, a font commonly used in the late Western Zhou Dynasty.

The words are very beautiful and unique, warm, luxurious, ethereal, clean and neat, without hooking and pulling, which is reminiscent of Hongyi singular calligraphy.

Guo Jingchang has a deep knowledge of miscellaneous items and has systematically studied Daxie.

Guo Jingchang took the bamboo slips on the table in his hands and translated them word by word.

"Arouse yourself through poetry, establish yourself through ritualized action, and complete yourself with music, when Confucius was in Qi, he heard the Shao music, and for three months he did not know the taste of meat. 'I did not think,' he said, 'that the making of music could reach such perfection." Elsewhere he declared, "The Shao music is completely beautiful and completely good" (a.n.a.lects 3:25)....

"This is the "Book of Music." Guo Jingchang has not finished the contents of the bamboo slip, Cai Guoyun has been exclaimed because he is too excited, the voice was a little trembling. Then he turned to Chen Rui and asked eagerly. "Mr. Chen, are these bamboo slips true? Is there any bamboo slips in the same book with this bamboo slip ?"

Cai Guoyun asked Chen Rui two questions in succession. The speed is extremely fast, you can known that he is excited at the moment.

Chen Rui nodded and said, "These bamboo slips are all true. There are 305 volumes in the same book as the bamboo slips."

After that, Chen Rui pointed to a neat 305 bamboo slips on the shelf and said to Cai Mingyuan, "These bamboo slips are all."

From the Warring States Period to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the writing materials of the ancients were bamboo slips, which were spliced ​​into a book with narrow bamboo pieces. Because there are not many words written on a bamboo slip, a simple book maybe requires many carriages to carry.

"Book of Music" is written into 305 volumes of bamboo slips, which can be loaded with four or five carriages.

Hearing words, Cai Mingyuan quickly walked to the front of the case in disregard of grievances, picked up a bamboo slip, spread it out, looked down for a while, then looked up, his eyes rounded, his face showing an incredible expression, shocked said, "These are all, I did not expect to see the entire chapter of the "Book of Music" that inherits and ranks here."

You must know that the pre-Qin academic tradition is long and profound, and the pre-Qin academics are in the Six Cla.s.sics. "Book of Odes", "Book of Doc.u.ment", "Book of Rites", "Book of Music", "Book of Changes", "Spring and Autumn", among them is "Book of Music", "Book of Music" is more important than "Book of Changes" and "Spring and Autumn" Academic.

Later after Qin dynasty, the Six Cla.s.sics changes into the four books and five cla.s.sics.

The Five Cla.s.sics refers to the "Book of Odes", "Book of Doc.u.ment", "Book of Rites", "Book of Changes", and "Spring and Autumn".

Why there is no "Book of Music", because the "Book of Music" died.

The "Book of Music" was destroyed by the Qin fire. After the Qin fire, the "Book of Music" has not been circulated. Musicians can only play but cannot speak theories.

Understanding the importance of the "Book of Music" to the study of the pre-Qin academic culture and the inheritance of Chinese traditional culture, it is not difficult to understand the excitement of Cai Mingyuan.

In fact, not only Cai Guoyun is out of order,

Wu Guorui, Guo Jingchang, Professor Yang, and Hai s.h.i.+zhi are all dying, and their excitement can not be suppressed.

The five people almost squatted on the "Book of Music" bamboo slips, and like a treasure, they held a roll of bamboo in their hands.

The disappointments of Cai Mingyuan, Wu Guorui, and Guo Jingchang are well understood. They are cultural relics scholars. They understand very well that the 305 volumes of the "Book of Music" bamboo slips represent what is the most missing in the pre-Qin era that buried the origin of Chinese traditional culture. An important part, 'Music'.

It has always been said that China is a state of etiquette. What is the most important part of etiquette is 'Music'.

Although Professor Yang and Hai s.h.i.+zhi are not scholars in cultural relics, they do not have such deep understandings as Cai Mingyuan, Wu Guorui, and Guo Jingchang, but they both embraced the Chinese traditional culture since childhood, and the book "Book of Music" The pre-Qin writings, which are the same as the 'five cla.s.sics' that const.i.tute the skeleton of China thousands of years of traditional culture, appear in front of them, and the excitement is inevitable.

From ancient times to modern times, Chinese cultural scholars and literati talked about the loss of the "Book of Music" and regretted it. They hated Qin s.h.i.+huang burning of books and scholars.

Now, the birth of the 305 volumes of the "Book of Music", the Chinese cultural literati no longer have to sigh.

Ordinary antique, such as porcelain, they look good and have artistic appreciation. Second, they contain Chinese porcelain culture. However, they carry very little culture in every piece of porcelain.

From the 305 volumes of the "Book of Music", first of all, it is the carrier of the text. Through the study of these words, people can clearly understand the academic, historical and cultural aspects of the pre-Qin. Secondly, the pre-Qin scholar in the Six Cla.s.sics, "The Book of Music" is an important one, "Book of Music" is destroyed in the Qin fire, so that the literati scholars of the dynasties have all deplored the sorrow, the disappearance "The Book of Music" has buried the origin of Chinese traditional culture. The most important part of the pre-Qin culture, 'Music'.

The value of these 305 volumes of "Book of Music" cannot be measured by money.

"This is the true treasure of the country." For a long time, Cai Mingyuan looked up from the 305 volumes of the "Book of Music" and said with emotion.

"Yeah, when it comes to national treasures, this "Book of Music" 305 volumes can be ranked first." Wu Guorui also said with emotion.

The 305 volume "Book of Music" bamboo slip is only a small part. There are thousands of bamboo slips in the room.

Cai, Wu, and Guo looked at these bamboo slips in the room.

"This is the fifteen articles of "Genealogy", almost incredible." Cai Mingyuan found a great pre-Qin writing in the bamboo slip.

The "Genealogy" was compiled by the predecessors of the pre-Qin period. It mainly records the historical records of the descendants of the ancient emperors, the princes, and the family of the Qin family.
