"Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia" is also the name of Qin Le. Qin Ge has editions such as Big Hu Jia, Little Hu Jia and Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia, which reflect Cai Wenji's contradictory and painful feelings of plucking the strings and singing, moving, resentful, sad, homesick and inseparable. It is an eternal masterpiece. The whole poem uses Cai Wenji's tone to describe that he is in troubled times, captured by the Huns, missing his hometown of Alakazam, and unable to adapt to the life of the Huns. Later, she gave birth to two children and loved them very much. On the one hand, she is ecstatic, on the other hand, she is reluctant to part with her own flesh and blood. After returning to the Central Plains, she missed her children day and night, met them in her dreams, and woke up with a bitter pain. She questioned why God tortured herself so cruelly. Finally, she explained why Hu Jia's timbre was integrated into the piano music, expressing her endless sadness.
Hu Jia is a musical instrument of the Hu people. At first, it may be that the Hu people rolled up the reed leaves and blew them. Later, they made reeds into whistles and played them on pipes without holes. This musical instrument was discovered in Yuefu in Han Dynasty. Hu Jia's voice is sad and nomadic, and Qin is a classical stringed instrument of Han nationality. Hu Jia's eighteen beats combine these two musical instruments, which is equivalent to combining Hu Han's different musical styles.
The word "pai" in Eighteen Pais of Hu Jia refers to the pause between paragraphs, which can be regarded as "paragraphs". "Eighteen beats" means eighteen movements, and the corresponding words are eighteen lyrics. There are quite a few appellations of Chinese guqin, including "San", "Cao", "Yin" and "Pai". The author and lyrics of this song have always been controversial. At present, it is still inconclusive whether "Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia" was written by Cai Yan or the piano music was written with lyrics. According to textual research, although there was a famous music called "Hu Jia" in the Han and Jin Dynasties, it had nothing to do with Cai Wenji. It was not until the Tang Dynasty that Hu Jia was associated with Cai Wenji. In the Tang Dynasty, people thought that they wrote Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia, and the poet Li Jie in the Tang Dynasty wrote: "The melody of this clarinet is that Mrs. Cai sang its eighteen verses one after another a long time ago. The conference semifinals shed tears on the grass, and China's messenger was heartbroken and turned around to go home with the guards. "Cai Wenji is the author of Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia. It is said that Dong, a famous pianist in the Tang Dynasty, also played Hu Jia in an eighteen-beat structure. Thus, there was a piano piece named Hu Jia in the Tang Dynasty, the theme of which was the story of Cai Wenji. There are 18 subtitles in Hu Da Jia, a piano piece in the Tang Dynasty, which basically covers the life experiences: beauty follows Lu, Wan Li is more important than yin, the air is sad and weak, dreams come, the grass sits in the water, looking at Beidou in the south, the sunset clouds are cloudless, the galaxy is sparse, blood pricks books, Hu Tian complains, the water freezes the grass and dries up, and the name is far away.
As a poem, the poem "Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia" was first seen in Yuefu Poetry compiled by Guo Maoqian in the Southern Song Dynasty, but it was not until the Southern Song Dynasty that Hu Jia Eighteen Beats, as the name of a piano piece, was first recorded. The eighteen beats of Hu Jia that we heard today should be a piano piece handed down from the Southern Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia was widely circulated. The imperial court in Song Dynasty retreated before the invasion of northern nationalities, which led to the country's demise. The homesickness and the feeling of returning to Han contained in Hu Jian's eighteen songs undoubtedly matched the humiliation and indignation of the scholars in the Song Dynasty at that time. At the end of Song Dynasty and the beginning of Yuan Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang was imprisoned by Yuan people. Wang Yuanliang, a famous violinist, visited him in prison himself. He played this song "Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia" for Wen Tianxiang.
"Why don't you see me drifting alone? God, what happened? I live up to God. What makes me different? I live up to the gods. Why should I go to the desert state? " A noble and talented woman, with a bumpy life experience, questioned the sky and pointed out that it was unfair. The desolate artistic conception of piano ensemble is matched with sad and depressed despair, and the lines are choked with grief, which makes the players and listeners all moved. Song Fan Shiwen said in "Talking about Bed at Night": "This will belong to another son. When he is suffering, his words are deafening. Resentment, mourning for the old, as new as a thousand years; Even with a holy pen, I can't bear to delete it. " Cai Wenji's tenderness always accompanied her to leave Alakazam and return to Chang 'an. The humiliating life is over, and the pain of missing parents has just begun. "Hu and Han are different, and heaven and earth are separated by things." At the end of the poem, feelings surged like a frenzy, playing the ending of the song, and the aftertaste was still there. The whole poem is full of deep feelings and jumping emotions, and the Yaochi is rebuilt at the seaside, which reflects the sadness of Cai Wenji's "the sky is boundless and my heart is sad" and "I am bitter about the sky".
Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia is of great artistic value. In "Flowers in the Mirror", Lu Shiyong, a member of Amin Dynasty, said: "When the style of Tokyo is declining, Cai Wenji will be brilliant in Ying Ying. Reading "Hu Yiyin" can make people feel shocked, and the wind and sand are flying, and they are always hugged by fierce people. " The reason why the bitter piano music is so touching and enduring is that it combines the most profound life experience.
We can see Cai Wenji's peerless talent from Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia. History books say that she is "knowledgeable, eloquent and better than temperament". Wenxi has a talent for music since childhood. At the age of 6, she listened to her father playing the piano through a wall and recognized the sound of his first broken string. Father was surprised and deliberately broke the fourth string, which was actually pointed out by her. When she grows up, she is a piano superman. She misses her motherland in Alakazam day and night. After returning to Han, she referred to the tone color of the Hu people, integrated her own tragic experience, and created a heartbreaking piano music "Eighteen Beats of Hu Jia". After her marriage with Dongsi, she left the chaos in grief and indignation, and created China's first autobiographical five-character poem "Poem for the Past". She also memorized 400 articles from her family's poetry collection lost in the war, all of which were correct. This shows that Cai Wenji is smart and knowledgeable.
But talent did not make her worry-free and safe all her life. Cai Wenji was married three times in his life, and his fate was bumpy. /kloc-When she was 0/6 years old, she married Wei Zhongdao. The Wei family was an aristocratic family in Hedong at that time, and Wei Zhongdao was an excellent university student. The couple were very loving, but in less than a year, Wei Zhongdao coughed up blood and died. The Wei family thought that she could not have children, so she proudly ignored her father's opposition and resolutely returned to her family. At the age of 23, Wenxi's father died in prison. She was captured by the Huns and left as a princess, where she learned to play Hu Jia and some local languages. In the 13th year of Jian 'an (208), 35-year-old Cai Wenji was redeemed by Cao Cao with two hundred gold coins and a pair of white jade. Cao Cao married Dong Si. At first, the life of husband and wife was not harmonious. Cai Wenji is often in a trance because of sadness, while Dong Si is in the prime of life, with good looks, extensive history, erudite temperament and high self-esteem. She was forced to accept her only at the behest of the Prime Minister, but she only cared about herself. However, in the second year after marriage, when Dong Si committed a crime, Cai Wenji ignored bad blood and went to the Prime Minister's Office to plead with Cao Cao. When Cao Cao saw that Cai Wenji was unkempt in the cold winter, he couldn't bear it. He ordered someone to bring the headscarf, shoes and socks and put them on her. Mindful of the friendship with Cai Yong in the past and the tragic life experience of Cai Wenji, if Dong Si was executed, Moon Hee would not survive, so Cao Cao spared Dong Si. From then on, Dongsi deeply remembered his wife's kindness and Wenxi. The husband and wife also saw through the world, so they returned to Luoshui and lived in seclusion in the foothills with beautiful scenery and lush trees. A few years later, Cao Cao passed by hunting and visited them.
Cai Wenji and Dong Si have a son and a daughter. The daughter married Sima Shi, the son of Sima Yi. Cai Wenji, who lived in exile all his life, finally lived a quiet life in his later years.
