There are two disputes about the pronunciation of "乐", one is lè and the other is yuè. For example, "Interesting Stories in 300 Classic Ancient Poems" published by Tongxin Publishing House and edited by Peng Fan; "Selected Ancient Poems" published by China Children's Publishing House and edited by Yin Wensheng, as well as Beijing Publishing House Publishing Group and Beijing Children's Publishing House In "Three Hundred Song Ci Poems" jointly published by the Press and edited by Ji Jianghong, the phonetic notation of the word "乐" in "Qing Ping Le" is all yuè, while the phonetic notation of "Yong Yu Le" is all lè. In this regard, a question arises in my mind: Why are the names of the poems brand, the word "le" in "Qing Ping Le" is pronounced yuè, but the word "Le" in "Yong Yu Le" is pronounced lè? Is the above phonetic notation authoritative?

Opening "Cihai", page 95 shows that "乐" has four pronunciations, namely: ①lè, joy, happiness; ②yuè, music; ③yào; ④luò.

Opening the "Modern Chinese Dictionary" again, page 823 shows that "乐" has two pronunciations, namely: ①lè; ②yuè.

Finally, open the "Ancient Chinese Dictionary", and its page 1957 shows that "乐" has five pronunciations, namely: ①yuè, including "music", "instrument", "yuejing", and "musician" ", "surname" has five meanings; ②lè, there are "joy, pleasure", "like, fondness", "pleasure", "pleasure", "well-being, generally refers to sound and color", "surname" has six interpretations; ③yòo, " It means "like"; ④luò; ⑤liáo, which means "treatment".

From the analysis of the above materials, "乐" had five pronunciations in ancient times. When pronounced as "yòo", it is usually found in the phrase "Leshan, Leshui", which means "preference". When pronounced as "lióo", it is Tongjia, which is the same as "therapy". The "luo" sound is relatively rare. In ancient times, the sounds yue and le were more common. So what is the pronunciation of "乐" in "Qing Ping Le" and "Yong Yu Le"?

The "Ancient Chinese Dictionary" points out: "Ci is a Yuefu poem that can be sung with music." Since it is related to music, it stands to reason that "Qing Ping Le" and "Yong Yu Le" "Le" in "Le" should all be pronounced as yuè. But looking through many collections of poems, I found that the word "乐" in "Qing Ping Le" is all pronounced as yuè, while in "Yong Yu Le" it is all pronounced as lè. Why is this? With doubts, the author checked "Cipai Explanation Examples" again.

Page 54 of "Cipai Explanation" points out: "Qing Ping Le, also known as "Qing Ping Le Ling", "Drunken East Wind", "Recalling Luo Yue"." Song Wang Zhuo's "Biji Manzhi" says : "Ouyang Jiong said that Li Bai composed four pieces of "Qing Ping Le" in response, and borrowed the names of the tunes of "Qing Ping Le" and "Ping Le" from Han Yuefu as the names of the lyrics."

From this point of view, "Qing Ping Le" "Yue" is derived from "Qing Yue" and "Ping Yue" of Han Yuefu, and the "Ancient Chinese Dictionary" also points out on page 1957 that Yuefu has two interpretations: "the official office in charge of music in ancient times" and "the name of poetry". And here it is natural to take the meaning of "poetic name". Since "Qing Yue" and "Ping Yue" are musical tones, they should naturally be pronounced as yuè. Moreover, "Qing Ping Le" is derived from "Qing Le" and "Ping Le". It can be inferred from this that the word "乐" in "Qing Ping Le" should be pronounced as yuè.

In addition, page 245 of "Cipai Explanation" also points out that "Yongyu Le" is also known as "The News". Song Zhoumi's "Tianji Festival Music Arrangement" says: "The music is played in the bell palace, and the fifth lamp starts "Yongyu Leman"." From this, we can also know that "Yongyu Leman" is also related to music. , so the word "乐" in it should be pronounced yuè.
