Release that Witch - Chapter 186
[Chapter 185 The Star of the Theater (Part 1)]
The Swan sailed west along the Chishui River, and May stood at the bow, staring straight ahead.
She didn’t want to enjoy the scenery, but just wanted to see the pier of Border Town earlier.
“How long before we get there?” she asked impatiently.
“It’s almost here, Miss May. The sun is shining here, you’d better go back to the cabin to rest.” Gaite behind said.
You don’t need to look to know that he must have a flattering smile on his face at the moment.
Looking back, May found that it was indeed the case, “When you told me before, it was already almost there, is it still almost there now? Have you ever been to Border Town?”
“Uh…” He was speechless for a long time, and finally scratched Scratching his head, “The last time I came was ten years ago.”
“Longsong Fortress can change its owner in one year, let alone ten years?” May said angrily, “But there are exceptions. I don’t think you have changed much. Every year is like a day, and I still can’t get on the stage.”
Seeing the other party retreating with a stiff smile, she finally felt a little better.
If it wasn’t for Irene’s news, she really didn’t want to go to Border Town on the same boat with these handymen.
As the star actress of the Fortress Theater, she is well-known in the entire Western Territory. This time, she was invited by the High Tower Theater to perform “The Prince’s Search for Love” in the Royal Capital of Graycastle.
The performance was a great success, and even Mr. Kakin Firth, the master of the drama, praised her for bringing to life the role of the princess who died in love. Although she was not playing the heroine, her impression was not inferior to that of the heroine.
But when she rushed back to Longsong Fortress excitedly, she found that earth-shaking changes had taken place here.
The Duke of Ryan was defeated and died, and the fortress fell into the hands of the fourth prince, Roland Wimbledon. Currently, it is temporarily managed by Pei Luo Hermon of the Honeysuckle family… Less than a year after he left, the western region became strange.
Fortunately, the political turmoil in the upper echelons had little effect on the theater. If it was just like this, it would only add a little after-dinner conversation for May and her sisters, but the news that the first knight in the western region, Dawn Chenguang, was captured immediately broke her heart. up.
May immediately rushed to the theater, trying to ask Irene about the situation, but found that she also went to Border Town half a month ago, probably to reunite with her husband.
This news made Mei feel disappointed, but also mixed with a little envy.
Also working in the theater, she is a well-deserved top card, and Irene is a newcomer who has not yet made her debut. The title of “Flower of Tomorrow” comes from the mutual admiration of a group of miscellaneous actors; in terms of appearance, she has the confidence that she will never lose to the other party; in terms of family background , although she was born as a commoner, but Irene is just an orphan adopted by the theater, no matter how you look at it, she is much better than the other party.
However, what Mei Yi couldn’t let go of was that Dawn Chenguang Ferlin Hilt fell in love with the innocent-looking Irene, and later, in order to marry her, she even gave up her family’s inheritance rights.
“Look, the farmland,” someone shouted, “We’re not far from Border Town.”
May looked to the left side of the boat, and saw rows of wheat stalks up to knees blowing in the wind, farmers wearing straw hats The fields are busy, as if they are in the green ocean.
The wheat field stretches westward along with the sparkling river, with no end in sight.
“This scenery is really beautiful, Miss May,” Luoxia walked over and nodded to her, “I didn’t expect that in this remote place, I could see vast farmland no less than that of Longsong Fortress.”
“Compared to the capital city .”
, This is nothing at all,” Mei said disapprovingly, “There, the wheat field can even connect the two cities, and there is nothing but wheat along the way, which
is annoying to see.” “Really,” she smiled awkwardly She smiled, “I’ve never been to such a far place before.”
Well, this is the reaction that ordinary people should have, May thought, if Irene heard these words, I’m afraid she would only show envy Emoticons, and ask yourself to tell more.
“Don’t worry, you will have a chance to go in the future.”
“I hope so,” Luo Xia patted her chest, “Thank you for your encouragement.”
I mean, you only need to spend a few silver wolves to ride a caravan caravan Going to the capital does not mean that you can also go to the capital to perform plays, May rolled her eyes in her heart.
But the other party was Irene’s friend after all, and May didn’t bother to say all these things.
Luo Xia joined the theater earlier than her, and was about the same age as herself. However, due to her plain appearance and poor memory, she never got the chance to perform on stage.
Except for Irene, few people in the theater were willing to talk to her.
“Does Eileen know we’re here today?” May asked.
“I agreed on a date in my reply letter, and she should meet us at the pier.”
“That’s good,” she nodded, “I don’t want to find a hotel alone in a strange town.”
“Can I ask Do you want to say something? Miss May,” Luoxia hesitated, “Why did you go to the town with us and secretly hide it from the theater? Irene’s letter said that there might be a chance to act here, but you There is no shortage of opportunities.”
“If you are honest, do you think the theater will let me come to this ghost place?” May curled her lips, “As for why I came here… I just want to see how my companions in the theater are doing. That’s all
right.”
She didn’t know why she made this impulsive decision, the Longsong Fortress Theater had major dramas to be performed in the next two days, and if she left now, the theater owner might have a headache.
Although there are still a few back-up actresses, without her, the nobles might not buy it, and if it is serious, they will protest to the theater.
To be honest, this is not a wise choice. May knows this in her heart. No matter how famous she is, she still has to rely on theaters for her existence.
There’s nothing she can do if she annoys the theater owner and simply freezes her and renews her pitch for a new actress.
If you don’t compromise and admit your mistakes, or you can only leave this place and compete with the pillars of other theaters.
Otherwise… After seeing Ferrin, you should take the boat back to the fort immediately, right?
May thought.
“I see,” Luo Xia nodded, “Irene will be very surprised when she sees you. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com”
The scenery along the river bank gradually became richer, and there were many tents and wooden houses on the side near the Impassable Mountain Range.
It was almost noon at this time, and the peasant women were busy cooking porridge and stewing soup. Smoke rose from the residential area, and May could occasionally smell the fragrance of wheat.
Children gathered by the river to play. Those who are good at water will take off their clothes, plunge into the river amidst the cheers of their companions, and then triumphantly climb ashore.
May finally saw the long-awaited pier.
After the Swan docked, Gate and Sam volunteered to take care of all the ladies’ luggage.
As soon as the group stepped off the trestle, Luo Xia shouted excitedly: “Irene!” May followed
the other party’s shout and saw a woman in a white dress waving at them vigorously at the pier , and there was a tall man standing beside her, even from a long distance, one could tell from his tall and strong figure that he was extraordinary.
Morning light, Ferrin Hilt.
The figure in May’s memory became clear again.
