Chapter 211 Part2 (1/2)
Once again, it is difficult to express the song in its elegant flair that it was cos and understanding as the original form is like poetry I have put in the actual Chinese words and if there is a better translation for them, please tell me so I can amend and credit it ?
Chapter 211: Cool Moon (Part 1)
The Jiao Wei Qin's sounds were heavy and were not as clear as ordinary Qin and it was more difficult for one toand delicate
It was distinctively an indescribable sound but itsound, the entire hall fell silent
She slowly opened herRiver flows from the West, the clouds and mountains on the reflection of the water, the terrace that is built on mountain As the ed by Heavens”
”长江浩浩西来,水面云山,山上楼台。山水相连,楼台相对,天与安排。”
”As one supports thealone eating cold food and recalling the autumn scenery of one's hometown, one worries when one's head is on the pillow, anxious when on horseback, only resting after one's death
”戴月行,披星走,孤馆寒食故乡秋,枕上忧,马上愁,死后休。”
Her voice was amiable normally, as clear as water, but at this moment there was a painful e and one's heart sour With her lyrics and her tune, it see Princess that was fair and adorable but was forced to wear the phoenix crown and sitting bittering in a corner of the Palace That Palace hall had a serious and heavy ate but had to encounter a difficult fate
She got up the carriage, bid goodbye to the Ehter for his thousands of autumns As a Princess of an Ie that she could not make the decision for
The journey from the capital was far away and as she parted the curtains, she could see the flying eagles in the skies, the fishes swi in the water She also saw the wind, the rain and the clouds and every single thing had more freedom then her
”In the close but far location, there was no shortage of flowers fluttering through one's hands for many moons as one eyes filled with tears of farewell The words of care and goodbyes were just spoken and made one reluctant to part”
”咫尺的天南地北,霎时间月缺花飞手执着饯行杯,眼阁着别离泪。刚道得声保重将息,痛煞煞教人舍不得”
Shen Miao's tears slowly flowed down
She has a delicate and dignified appearance with complexion as fair as jade Under the lanterns, her hands continued to pluck the Qin but one could see the tear stains It was clearly a cold look but see that one could not speak of, could not sing out The pair of eyes was obviously clear but beca in the rain,one could not help but want to care for
Everyone in the packed hall was silent as she sang and their eyes became red They only felt that their heart was blocked and there was no s suddenly changed and the Qin sounds were played hastily and her lyrics became sharp
”The erred Monarch, the crafty and covetous officials, when the river opens it is the root of the disaster Laws are excessive, punish the co people? Thieves become officials, officials become thieves Cheats are passed on as the virtuous, the mourners are pitiful”
”误国君,奸佞专权,开河变抄祸根源,官法滥,刑法重,黎民怨。人吃人,和曾见?贼做官官做贼,混愚贤,哀哉可怜”
”It would be better to see the collapse of this building When it becomes rubbles, the rise and fall would only be fifty years before one would look at it with cold eyes”
”倒不如亲眼见这楼倾台塌,便成瓦砾,兴亡五十年,冷眼看碑残”
Her brows and eyes were cold and her voice was bleeding blood, like she was sobbing and co about past experience Then there was a aze in her eyes and it was fill with resentment and each traces of it were all directed towards the seated Ye Mei and brother
At the end Wan Yu was unable to play the co part was filled by Shen Miao In the Cold Palace, she had played it on a broken Qin The first part was Wan Yu's plead and the latter half was her coht but those people could not hear
Now here, are you listening to this song? Did you feel a sense of fa put down the cup and his gaze was as sharp as a knife
Ye Mei felt somewhat chilly What did these lyrics had to do with her? But why did it seem that it was directed to her that itended, the faint sound of the Qin was not resting when Shen Miao suddenly stop and lifted her hands
There were no words spoken in the hall for a long tiFei was rude and hoarse and did not know Qin and chess? It was a skill to be able to play till the entire hall of people fall into silence
However one could evento that sad story, they would not be able to feel happy at all
Shen Miao spoke amiably, ”This piece is not festive and should not be played in a birthday celebration but Young Lady Ye wanted to listen so one had played it especially for Young Lady Ye” She looked at Ye Mei, ”Is Young Lady Ye satisfied?”
Everyone's gaze landed on Ye Mei in an instant
Ye Mei was somewhat restless The words seemed to indicate that it her that forced Shen Miao to play the Qin and make a fool of herself but she had to admit that Shen Miao was not coarse at all It was not difficult to play the Qin but as difficult wasanother's heart Her Qin was able to o back on one conscience and say that it was not good, one would be at a disadvantage
”wangFei is indeed an unparalleled talent like the rumours” Ye Mei smiled, ”This piece 'Blood Call' is admirable but…” She was somewhat doubtful, ”Why is there different atmosphere between the first and latter half of the 'Blood Call'? The ed”
The latter half was fierce, resentful and desperate, just like the last cry of a beast and it ers Of course the front and the latter were different The front portion was created by Wan Yu to ed when she lost her children and was thrown into the Cold Palace by the poisonous pair
Shen Miao ss of the Little Princess that was forced to marry but the latter half was froer of that Ehter”
”So it was as such” Everyone then understood and soFei know of this story? It reallyby a travelling storyteller” Shen Miao smiled, ”It is just that one felt that this story was too serious that one re lady could not help but ask, ”Since it is a story, then what is the ending of it? What kind of ending did that Princess have?”
Shen Miao said blandly, ”The ending of the story is that Princess died during the journey of the alliance e and that Eiven the white silk and died”
Everyone sighed and said that this story was just too tragic
Ye Furen was however so was actually co and her dance enticed everyone but Shen Miao only sat down quietly and played the Qin and sang a couple of sentences and was able to attract everyone's attention Moreover she also told a story and snatched Ye Mei's liht Like this, Ye Mei's water sleeved dance becahtly changed
Females were always emotional so when Shen Miao spoke of such a pitiful story and the Qin was able to hold one's heart, everyone felt much closer to Shen Miao
Ye Furen said, ”It is really sorrowful on such a festive day”
