(Thank you for the reward and ticket for Purple Flower Bell. PS: I may have to go back to my hometown tomorrow. If I can make it back, I will update it. There is nothing I can do if I can’t make it. Today I will update two big chapters, which is considered as early compensation.)
With the permission of the judges, everyone in Wangyue Tower joined the battle, and the handymen arranged by the competition also came to help. They set up ladders to hang large curtains around the floating platform, put up screens, tables and chairs, and hung up backgrounds and lights. They were busy.
Very happy.
The people in the audience did not admit it. They were shouting one after another. Some people threw the leftover noodles on the stage, and some shouted for the people in Wangyue Tower to get off the stage. The scene was a bit chaotic for a while. Fortunately,
The Ning navy's land and sea soldiers immediately dispatched and captured many people on the shore and on land, and then the situation calmed down a little.
After a stick of incense, the arrangement on the floating platform was finally completed. The entire floating platform had been completely wrapped by the black curtain hung around it, and it looked like a large square tent on the water. Zhao Zimo once again walked up to the stage and loudly announced "Wang Yue"
When the performance started, the noise in the audience slowly disappeared and the scene became quiet.
But when a wisp of music sounded from inside the curtain, two women stood on the stage carrying a large wooden sign as high as one person, with three big characters written on it: Du Shiniang. Under everyone's attention, the three-sided curtain slowly
Roll it up to reveal the interior of the stage.
On the brightly lit stage, in front of a large screen with several flowers, birds and peonies, there is a small table and several spring stools. On the small table are vases, teapots, teacups and other items, and there are also aromatherapy stoves, slag buckets and other items on the ground, which makes it look like a fairy tale.
Defecation is a scene in daily life. A woman is sitting sideways on a small table, holding a brush in her hand and writing something.
In the side curtain, a maid appeared.
"Shi Niang, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival today, why don't you come out to the yard to enjoy the moon. Mom and sisters are waiting. Eh? Are you writing lyrics again? Are you writing lyrics for Mr. Li Jia?"
The woman raised her hand to strike, and said in vain: "The moon is full during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but people are not round. Mr. Li went to Beijing to take the exam, but he didn't know what the chances of winning in Qiuwei were. He went to see Yue'er, but he was troubled. I sat in this room and listened to the story of Dangui.
The fragrance made me think, so I composed a short poem."
"I really wrote a song. Shi Niang will read it, and I will taste the spring fragrance."
The woman put down the brush, picked up the paper and stood up gently, chanting in a sweet voice: "The body is dark and light yellow, the body is soft, the traces of love are far away, only the fragrance remains. There is no need for light green and light red, it is naturally the best among flowers. Plum blossoms are jealous, chrysanthemums are
In response to shame, the opening of the painting is crowned with the Mid-Autumn Festival. The scholar can be ruthless, why can't he see the end of the year?"
At the judges' table in the audience, Yuan Xiandao patted the table lightly and praised in a deep voice: "What a great song. This is the osmanthus chanted. 'Why does it need light green and light red, it is naturally the best among flowers.' Good sentence
Ah. Xie Yingying really did not disappoint me. A talented woman, she is indeed a talented woman."
On the stage, the plot continues.
Characters appeared one after another. Li Jia, Sun Fu, Liu Yuchun and other characters appeared one after another. As the plot progressed, the plot gradually emerged. Xie Yingying fully demonstrated her talents, singing and dancing.
The audience on stage and off stage were gradually involved in the plot. They gradually understood the relationship between the characters in the play, and were gradually caught by the plot. But even so, after the first scene, the reaction could only be
It's pretty average.
After the second act started, the plot evolved to Li Jia and Du Shiniang making a lifelong decision. Li Jia finally agreed to marry Du Shiniang home, and Du Shiniang redeemed herself. Many people spontaneously applauded during this scene. The stage.
On the red boat in the brothel next to it, many women from the flower world stretched their heads and looked at it seriously. They were happy for Du Shiniang on the stage. Du Shiniang had met someone who was in love with her, and she would be depended on for life. These were their wishes.
.Unconsciously, they themselves became involved.
After the third act began, the lights on the stage became dim and obscure, and the atmosphere took a turn for the worse. Li Jia's father was furious, and a letter from home was delivered to Li Jia. Li Jia was restless and drank to drown his sorrows. The stage was filled with snow and wind, and he was alone.
When the boat arrived at Guazhou Ferry, Sun Fu moved the boat to invite him. After Li Jia was drunk, Sun Fu offered to buy Du Shiniang for a thousand taels of silver. Li Jia was hesitant and uneasy. He did not dare to face Shiniang's inquiry.
right.
From the beginning of the third act, the hearts of the people in the audience and the people on the red boat were in twitching. Wangyue Tower put a lot of effort into the lighting background, with vast mountains and vast rivers on the screen, heavy snow falling on the stage, and the audience in the audience.
They locked their shoulders unconsciously. The soundtrack was also very ingenious. After Sun Fu came on the stage, the drum beats were dense and low, which made people upset. When the plot evolved to Sun Fu tricking Li Jia into agreeing to kill Du Shiniang
When I sold it to him, while Sun Fu laughed to the sky, the audience in the audience cursed.
In the cabin, Du Shiniang served the drunken Li Jia with all her heart, and when she was showing him all kinds of tenderness, the audience couldn't help shouting: "Du Shiniang, you have been betrayed by this heartless person. Don't do it."
He was so kind to her, but he was an irresponsible person."
As soon as he said this, the audience immediately denounced Li Jia like a wave. The bloody men on several small boats immediately rushed to the stage with their boats, intending to use their old fists on the Li family on the stage. The patrolling Ninghai navy ships immediately stopped them.
He stopped a few people who were yelling and swearing back.
The curtain fell in the third act, and the whole place was silent. The full moon was setting in the west, shining on the field. In everyone's hearts, this moonlight was also desolate and tragic. Their hearts tightened, they didn't know what would happen, they felt from the bottom of their hearts
Praying that things would turn around, Li Jia would change his mind, and everything would return to the beauty they imagined. So they all waited in silence for the curtain to open.
The black curtain opened again. Li Jia woke up in the middle of the night and finally revealed the deal with Sun Fu. He took out a letter from home and begged Du Shiniang for forgiveness. Du Shiniang was shocked and burst into tears.
As the music started, Du Shiniang sang slowly: "The oaths of eternal love are still in my ears, and the dreams of tenderness and sweetness are true. I believe in your true love and will pay for it for the rest of my life. Today, your words are like a thunderbolt that shatters dreams. Can you say that I follow you for love?"
It's wrong. This affection will make you ruined and homeless. If you don't recognize your relatives, your love will no longer exist. Li Lang, if you still treat Shi Niang sincerely, I would like to make a sincere request in front of Gao Tang. If father and mother are incompatible,
I would not hesitate to be with you forever."
Li Jia lowered his head and sighed, saying for a long time: "The contract has been signed. Sun Fu will come to pick him up at dawn. Shiniang, I'm sorry for you."
At this point in the performance, the audience was in an uproar. The people were roaring, gnashing their teeth, and swearing angrily.
…
Du Shiniang stopped talking and sat for a long time, listening to the crow of cocks in the distance. Du Shiniang sat on the dressing table and began to comb her hair. The lights in the entire venue were turned off, and all the light shone diagonally from the top.
, covering Du Shiniang's whole body. This is a spotlight that Lin Jue tried his best to create with a concave mirror to gather the light. It is the most perfect when used here. All the surrounding furnishings and backgrounds and even the characters such as Li Jia are in darkness.
, only Du Shiniang, who was sitting upright and combing her hair, was bathed in light.
This technique also makes all the audience feel the decisive atmosphere and ominous premonition.
Du Shiniang finished dressing up and put on the red bridal gown. She stood quietly on the stage, facing the audience. Xie Yingying was already very beautiful. Now that she was dressed up and put on the bride's red robe, she became even more beautiful.
It is stunningly beautiful. Under the light, it gives people a sense of sadness and beauty.
The common people were cursing and sighing in low voices. Li Jia was so blind and so unlucky that such a wonderful person was given away. The depression in his heart was indescribable.
…
The lights came on and it was daybreak. Sun Fu led people to the bow of the ship, and two young men carried a large box of silver to the bow of the ship. A pale Li Jia stood at the bow of the ship in a daze.
"Where's my sweetie?" Sun Fu asked with a smile.
"In the cabin."
"Here is a thousand taels of silver. Brother Li, now you are at ease. You can go home with the money, and your parents won't blame you for being greedy for the beauty of a brothel and tainting the family. I, Sun Fu, got a beauty. This is called a shot.
You two are good. Stop crying and looking sad, you should be happy."
Du Shiniang slowly walked out of the cabin holding a brocade box. When Sun Fu saw it, his eyes shone. He stepped forward with a smile and said: "Madam, come with me across the ship."
Du Shiniang glanced at him lightly and said, "Can the money be delivered?"
"Okay, okay, promise, they're all here. Brother Li has seen them all," Sun Fu said with a playful smile.
"Okay, Li Lang, I'm leaving." Du Shiniang said softly.
"Shi Niang, I can't help you..." Li Jia said weakly.
"Humph, now that things have come to this, what's the use of all this? Shiniang won't be able to serve you in the future, so you have to take care of yourself." Du Shiniang whispered.
"Let's go, let's go, you are mine now, why are you talking about this?" Sun Fu urged dissatisfied.
Du Shiniang suddenly turned her head and glared at Sun Fu. When the drums started playing, Du Shiniang sang: "Criticize Sun Fu for being a dishonest person who relies on money to bully the poor. He does tricks for the sake of greedy women, and a thousand taels of silver erodes people's hearts. You
I only think that money in the world is more important than people, and love and affection are bought and sold casually. You think that the girls in the brothel are all snobbish, and they all want to marry your rich and noble people. I laugh at you for making the wrong calculation and making the wrong account. How can you understand the love in the world. Indulgence
You have millions and millions of money, but if you survive for the rest of your life, you will be a useless person."
…
"Good! That's a good scolding! It's a relief." The people in the audience praised loudly and applauded like waves.
…
"What's going on? How can you, a woman, curse? Li Jia, do you want to regret it? What should you say?" Sun Fu said angrily.
Li Jia looked at Du Shiniang and said: "Shi Niang, I can't help you. Don't do this. If you follow him, you can live well and live well..."
"Shut up!" Du Shiniang pointed at Li Jia and yelled angrily: "Li Jia, you poor man. Do you think I, Du Shiniang, am only worth these thousand taels of silver? Today I will teach you to open your eyes."
Du Shiniang opened the brocade box in her arms, and the jewels inside were shining brightly. Du Shiniang grabbed a handful and sneered: "These are a few cat's eyes, one is worth a hundred gold. I originally planned to stay and fly with you."
, buy a family property together, and live a peaceful life. However, it is wishful thinking. This one is worth your thousand taels of silver, but what use do I need at this time?"
Du Shiniang waved her hand and threw a handful of jewels into the Taiwanese water.
Li Jia felt guilty and resentful, and kept trying to stop him. Du Shiniang laughed and said angrily: "Do you know that you regret it now? I have been in love for several years, and I have accumulated all my personal wealth. This is a lifelong plan. When I met my husband, we made an eternal alliance and we will remain forever."
When I left the capital, I entrusted the sisters to give me gifts. There are hundreds of treasures in the box, no less than ten thousand gold. I will polish my husband's clothes and return to my parents. Or if I have pity on my concubine, I will accept the gifts. I will finally get the entrustment, life and death.
No regrets. Who knew that the husband did not believe deeply, was confused by superficial opinions, abandoned the middle way, and betrayed my concubine sincerely. Today, in front of everyone, I opened the box and took a look, so that the husband knows that it is nothing difficult for a mere daughter."
"Shi Niang, I was wrong, please forgive me for once." Li Jia shouted.
"Bah! Even if you say this now, you can't deceive me. Li Jia, there is a jade in my concubine's coffin, but there is no pearl in the hateful man's eyes. I was not destined to die, and I was tired from the dust. I just got away, but I was abandoned again. Now.
Everyone has their own ears and eyes, and together we can prove that I am not letting the husband down, and the husband is proud of the concubine’s ears!”
After Du Shiniang said that, she ran out with a skirt in one hand, came to the entrance of the stage, jumped up, and submerged into the dark water with a pop.
…
The people in the audience shouted in horror and stood in horror. Xie Yingying really held the treasure box and jumped into the water in front of the stage. This real and illusory shock made everyone's hair stand on end and felt uneasy. A small boat quickly approached,
Someone went into the water to rescue the person, wrapped in a black cloak and left quickly.
The people then focused their attention on the stage again. However, the lights on the stage were chaotic and the situation changed. Colored paper petals were flying everywhere. Li Jia and Sun Fu lay on the bow of the boat and screamed loudly. The black curtain slowly moved.
When the curtain fell, the sound of all the female voices singing in unison was heard.
"The smoke is vast and the mist is thick, and the burning love of the martyrdom is a warning to the world. Hate is hidden in the treasure chest, and the pure soul is bathed in the waves of the long river. The ten niangs are originally the moon on the horizon, and Li Jia is nothing but the dust on the bottom of the sea. Since ancient times, who climbs the willows on the river bank? Don't believe in fake cuckoo cries.
real."
The curtain falls, the singing stops, and people are quiet.
Everyone stared at the dark stage quietly, and many people's faces were already covered with tears. There was a cry of sadness in the brothels and flower boats. The women felt the same and couldn't hold back their tears.
