Chapter 9 Feixue Pavilion and Qin Master
Jicheng, as the country of Yan, is a place where many nobles live together, and officials' cars and cars can be seen everywhere.
The vendors on both sides of the road were shouting hard, greeting the pedestrians coming and going.
Ye Chen led his horse through the street, looking at the surrounding scene with interest while looking for places like inns.
But what's strange is that the inn, which was originally crowded, has been crowded in recent days, and almost all nearby residences have been settled in advance.
After inquiring, I learned that the reason why this happened was because of the arrival of a woman.
This person is named Xue Nu, and is a famous dancer who is famous all over the world. He has a unique national beauty, a beautiful and beautiful dance style. He is also proficient in music, music, poetry and books. He is the object of salivating countless male creatures.
It’s just that because Snow Girl was born in Zhao State, many people failed to see her beautiful face.
Just a few days ago, the first dancer of Zhao State left Zhao for some reason and came to Yan State. He spent a lot of money to buy an exquisite building in the most prosperous area of Jicheng, named Feixue Pavilion.
It was also announced to the public that the snow girl would appear in the Concubine Snow Pavilion half a month later and perform a dance.
As soon as the news came out, countless people came to see the style of the first dancer in Yanzhao. Many people even spent a lot of money to book the surrounding inns in order to get close to the water.
Among them are many high-ranking officials and merchants gathering wealth, which shows how attractive this dancer is.
The arrival of the Snow Girl made Jicheng even more lively. Many people were talking about this. When they heard the conversation on the streets and alleys, Ye Chen also became interested in the legendary first dancer of Yan Zhao.
After inquiring, he learned where Feixue Pavilion was. After walking along the street for a while, he saw a magnificent attic on the central section with the largest traffic.
There are three beautiful big characters "Fei Xue Pavilion" written on the plaque.
When Ye Chen saw the Feixue Pavilion, his expression moved slightly. At this time, a long row was lined up in front of the Feixue Pavilion, with dozens of people.
After walking over, I saw that everyone waiting in line was holding a guqin in their hands, as if they were pianists, but why were so many pianists gathered here?
Then he stepped forward and asked, "I wonder what happened here?"
The servant who was guarding the gate was a 15 or 16-year-old boy. When he heard the question, he looked at the former and saw that he was dressed gracefully and well-decoratedly and had a decent temperament, he knew that he was not an ordinary person.
He replied very politely: "Young man doesn't know that my master, Snow Girl, plans to perform dance skills in this Concubine Snow Pavilion in a few days, but he still lacks a musician who is good at piano skills, so he wants to hire a candidate in Jicheng."
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows: "Are these people who want to choose a piano player?"
"That's right, my master has very high requirements for the piano player, and ordinary people cannot catch her eyes."
When the servant said this, several men holding the guqin walked out of the door, looking disappointed, obviously not selected.
After being eliminated, a few people walked in, but not long after, they walked out with a lonely look, and then a few people entered...
Ye Chen's face moved slightly. He looked at the unselected piano players and found that their fingers were slender and agile. They must have a certain level of piano skills, but they were all turned away. It seemed that this snow girl's vision was really high.
According to this method of choosing, I am afraid that the entire Jicheng may not be able to find someone who meets the requirements.
But this has nothing to do with him. I just found a place to eat first and had a good meal. It was formal. After a long time, I was already empty.
Thinking of this, he led his horse away from here and walked towards a tavern not far away.
Half an hour later, Ye Chen was full of wine and food, and continued to find a place to stay, but after searching for a while, there was still no room available.
Unexpectedly, I could meet a village in the barren mountains for good luck, but when I arrived at the capital of Yan, I couldn’t find a place to stay.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen also showed a slightly bitter smile.
He led the horse to pass by Feixue Pavilion again. At this time, the zither masters in front of the door were gone, and the servant stood outside the door with some distress.
Ye Chen asked, "I wonder if Miss Snow Girl can choose a suitable piano player?"
The servant shook his head when he heard this: "My master said it would be better to be weak than to be bad. If the piano music is not worthy of her dance, it would be better not."
Hearing this, Ye Chen became even more curious about the snow girl and wanted to see what kind of person the other party was.
At this moment, his expression moved, as if he had thought of something, and asked, "I wonder what the reward is for becoming the piano master of Feixue Pavilion?"
"Thirty gold per month."
The servant replied.
In this era, one gold can make a family of five have no worries about food and clothing within one month, and thirty gold is already a very high salary.
Ye Chen said: "I'm asking if I'm going to have food and accommodation?"
When the servant heard this question, he was also a little surprised, but he nodded and replied: "As the piano master in the pavilion, food and accommodation are naturally borne by Feixue Pavilion."
Ye Chen smiled slightly when he heard this: "Since that's the case, maybe I can try it. It seems quite interesting to be a piano maker."
The servant was a little surprised: "Are you a pianist?"
"Why, don't you look like it?" Ye Chen opened his arms and asked.
The servant looked at him and replied seriously: "It doesn't look like you, you should be a scholar, right?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "You have a good vision. I am indeed a scholar, but who says scholars can't be a piano player. Can't you want to play the piano when you are tired of studying?"
Hearing this, the servant was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he saw such a wanton scholar, and he changed his career if he said he would change his career.
However, he did not turn the other party out. After all, all the applicants were eliminated, so it would be nothing to try one more person.
A maid walked out of the pavilion, came to Ye Chen, and bowed slightly, and said, "Sir, please follow me."
Ye Chen nodded, and then followed the maid who led the way into the Concubine Snow Pavilion.
The layout of the cabinet is luxurious but not vulgar, and the exquisiteness reveals an elegant charm. It can be seen that the owner here should not be secular, and has a very high taste.
I came to an elegant round platform, and there was a table and cushion in front of me, which was obviously used to place musical instruments.
"Sit, sir."
