When Taizu was assisting the Wei Dynasty, he paid tribute to Gaochang, so he learned his skills and taught them to prepare for banquets. In the sixth year of Tianhe's reign, Emperor Wu stopped his work to entertain the four barbarians in his court. Later, when Emperor Ping lived in Beidi, she acquired the music of Kangguo, Qiuci, etc., mixed it with the old music of Gaochang, and studied it in Dasi music.

Emperor Xuan went out in the morning and returned at night, and Heng Chen preached. Fortunately, I was in Tongzhou. From Yingmen to Chi'an, for dozens of miles, drums and music were played. Praying for the return of rain in Zhongshan, he ordered the ladies of the capital to play music in the alleys to welcome him. Public and private affairs are in ruins, leading to death.

In the second year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign, Yan Zhidui, the minister of Qi Huangmen, said: "The collapse of rites and music has its roots in a long time. Nowadays, elegant music is too often used, and Hu sounds are used to invite Feng Liang to study old things and search for classical music." Emperor Gaozu refused and said: "The music of Liang Dynasty was ruined, so how can I be forced to use it evilly?" Because of the fashion of Zhou music, he ordered workers Qi Shu to inspect the school's music hall and change the rhythm, but it was not good enough. Translated and memorialized by Eerzhu Kingdom and Peigong Zheng, please update and revise it. So he ordered Taichang Qing Niu Hong, Guozi Jijiu Xin Yanzhi, Guozi Dr. He Tuo and others to discuss Zhengle. However, it has been in error for a long time, and the music is too bad, and it has been undecided for many years. Emperor Gaozu was furious and said, "I have been under destiny for seven years, but Yuefu still sings about the merits of the previous generation. Is this evil?" He ordered Li E, the Censor of the Censor, Li E, and others to punish him. E said: "King Wu conquered Yin, and when Zhou Gong became king, he began to make rituals and music. This is a big matter and cannot be done quickly." Gaozu's intention was slightly understood. He also ordered people who knew the music to collect the ministers' books and discuss the music. Translation says: "When searching for the bells and stones of Yuefu, they all have the names Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, Yu, Bian Gong, and Bian Zheng. Within seven tones, three of them responded obediently. Every time I kept asking for a visit, I couldn't get through. First, during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty, there was a person named Su Zhipo from Qiuchi who came to the country from the Turkic Queen. He listened to her playing and heard seven sounds in the middle. He answered: "My father is in the Western Regions." It has been passed down from generation to generation, and there are seven types of tunes. The first one is called "Satu Li", and the second one is called "Chicken Sound". ', Huayan has a long sound, which is the Shang sound. The third one is called 'Sha Shi', and the Huayan has a straight sound, which is the horn sound. It is called 'Sha La', which is the harmony sound of Huayan, which is the sound of Zheng. The sixth one is 'Bansu', which is the five tones of Huayan, which is the sound of Yu. The seventh one is 'Qi Li?', which is the sound of Hua Niu. Gong Sheng Ye. "The translation is based on practice, and only then can the seven tones be correct. However, it has seven tunes, and it is also called Wudan, and Dan makes seven tunes. Translated in Chinese dialect, Dan is called Junye. Its sound also corresponds to the five uniforms of Huangzhong, Taicu, Linzhong, Nanlu and Guxi. It has seven rhythms and no tonal sounds. Therefore, he twisted the strings and pillars of the pipa and drank together to make them even. He deduced the sound and established the seven equals. The twelve are combined to correspond to the law of twelve. The temperament has seven tones, and the sounds stand for one tune, so it becomes seven tunes and twelve tunes, which combine to eighty-four tunes. They rotate and intersect, and they all harmonize. It is still played by Taiyue in the school of sound examination. For Lin Zhong's palace, Lin Zhong is used as the palace, so Huang Zhong is used as the palace; Nan Lu is used as Shang, so Taicu is used as Shang; Ying Zhong is used as the horn, so it is taken Gu Xi is the horn. Therefore, the forest bell has seven tones in one palace, and three tones are violent at the same time. There are seventy-seven tones in the eleven palaces, all of which are obedient and unreasonable, and there is no one that is unparalleled. There are also eight in the series, so it is the music of the eight tones. In addition to the seven tones, there is one more sound, which is called the response sound. He translated and wrote more than 20 chapters to clarify his meaning. Zhishi translated his book to announce the imperial court and set up a plan to rectify it. At that time, Su Kui, the prince of the Duke of Pi State, also known as Mingle, refuted it by saying: "The music recorded in "Han Shi Wai Zhuan" is touching, and the five tones recorded in "Yue Ling" all have five, not to mention changing the palace, According to "Chun Qiu Zuo Shi", "Seven tones and six tones are used to support the five tones." According to this, each palace should have five tones. The origin of the work of seven tunes is unknown. "The translation of the answer is: "Zhou has a rhythm of seven tones, "Lü Li Zhi", heaven, earth, people and the four seasons are called the Seventh Beginning of Heaven, Lin. Zhong is the beginning of the earth, Taicu is the beginning of the people, which is the beginning of the third year. Guxi is the spring, Ruibin is the summer, Nanlu is the autumn, and Yingzhong is the beginning of the fourth hour. If the two changes are used to tune music, it will be the sound of winter and summer, and there will be no preparation for the four seasons. Therefore, each palace must have seven tunes. "Zhongcongyi. The translation also goes with Kui Ju: "In this case, the Huangzhong of Yuefu uses Lin Zhong as the first tune, which loses the meaning of the monarch and his ministers. The Qingyue Huangzhong Palace uses Xiaolu as the sign of change and the way to live well. Now please use the yellow bell of Yale Huangzhong Palace. Zhong was the leader of the tune, Qing Yue went to Xiao Lu, and Ruibin was also used as the commander. "Everyone followed it. Kui also discussed with the translator that if he wanted to separate the millet, he should make the law Lu. At that time, the music and rhythm had not been understood for a long time, and the translator, Kui, and others were able to do it one day, thinking that the sound of the music could be determined. But He Tuo used to learn from the past, and his elegance was believed by Emperor Gaozu. Emperor Gaozu was not interested in learning and did not know how to enjoy learning. He was also ashamed of being a Confucian scholar and did not understand translations. He wanted to discourage his work. He proposed that the twelve rhythms and melody phases should not be used as the palace, saying: "Although the scriptures say that the gyration phase is the palace, I am afraid that the reason is straightforward, and it cannot be used to adjust the moon, so it is not used in ancient times. If we follow Zheng Xuan and Sima Biao, It is necessary to use sixty rules to get the harmonious rhyme. The current translation only takes the main palace of Huang Zhong and captures the wonderful meaning of the seven beginnings. It does not mean the seven tunes, so he said: "According to modern records, people who play mandarin music, drums, harps, and flutes have three tunes. The sound of the three tunes has been around for a long time. Please save the three tunes." Mr. Niu Hong He knows the music, but Hong cannot know the music well. There is also Wan Baochang, a man who knows music, who cultivates old Luoyang music. He learned music and rhythm at a young age and studied under Zu Xiaozheng, who knew that the previous generation cultivated ancient music. The jade of the Zhou Dynasty, the teeth of the Yin Dynasty, eight hangings and seven, all prepared according to the "Li" of Zhou. The so-called Zhengsheng is close to the joy of the Han Dynasty and cannot be abolished. At this time, there were competing opinions and cliques, and the principles of right and wrong were confused. Or if you want to order everyone to build something, and wait for it to be completed, choose the one who is good and follow it. I'm afraid it will be successful, good and evil are easy to see, so I asked Gaozu Zhang Le to try it. So he first said: "Huang Zhong is the symbol of the virtue of a human king." When he played the tune of Huang Zhong, Gaozu said: "It is eloquent and elegant, and it resonates with my heart." If you use Huang Zhong in one palace, there will be nothing left. Lu, the Great Patriarch was greatly pleased, and the class bestowed upon those who cultivated music such as Tuo. Since then the translation has been discussed.
