Steel Dynasty - Chapter 280

[Chapter 280 New Drama]

“The neck is extended to show off the neck, and the beauty is revealed. The fragrance is not added, and the plum blossoms are not in the imperial palace. The clouds are bunned in E’e, and the eyebrows are trimmed with Juan…”

Beautiful singing came from Aster and Pothos, and the two accompanied them Sometimes the singing is like long sleeves flying, sometimes it is like the waves rolled up by the strong wind in the flat lake; sometimes it is like the fallen leaves floating in the air.

The dance steps are graceful and joyful like the wings of a spring swallow. Sometimes it beats like a drum, sometimes it is as slow and low as the ringing of a bell.

While Aster and Luo Luo were dancing, they would cast their eyes on Xiao Ming from time to time, and the shyness in their eyes made the two of them even more touching.

Xiao Ming also didn’t expect that the two people’s dance would be so exquisite, and he couldn’t help but be mesmerized by it.

The dance performed by the two now is the “Jinghong Dance” of later generations. It is accompanied by the singing of Luo Shen Fu, which is stunning but also sad.

Before New Year’s Eve, Xiao Ming personally drew the action diagram of “The Dance” for the two of them. Now after the two danced it, he was really shocked.

Not only Xiao Ming, but everyone sitting down was also fascinated by it.

After the singing and dancing ended, Aster and Lulu bowed to Xiao Ming and then exited the main hall.

Pang Yukun exclaimed: “It is rare to see such beautiful songs and dances even in the palace. It is rare for a song “Luo Shen Fu” to be given such a moving melody. It can be said that this song can only be found in heaven and is rare in the world. “

What Pang Changshi said is true, but this tune is somewhat similar to the Qingzhou Military Song. Your Highness, this tune cannot be yours.” Zhan Xingchang and Pang Yukun are both scholars, and they are naturally people who understand elegance. , each one spoke clearly and logically.

Lu Fei said carelessly: “You literati are so jealous. Your Highness, this song and dance is really beautiful and pleasant to listen to.”

Pang Yukun and Zhan Xingchang shook their heads when they heard this.

Xiao Ming admitted at this time, “This tune is what I learned, and this dance is “Jinghong Dance”.”

The tunes of “Jinghong Dance” and “Luo Shen Fu” come from the later “The Legend of Zhen Huan”, because the soundtracks are all from ancient instruments. , because this song can be perfectly presented in this era.

Now everyone’s reaction has confirmed the charm of this song and dance, and Xiao Ming finally did not waste his efforts.

The reason why he chose “Jinghong Dance” to accompany “Luo Shen Fu” was as a transition. Since he wanted to create his own literary and artistic atmosphere in the fiefdom, this was a good start.

Everyone was still immersed in the singing and dancing just now, when two more people came outside the main hall.

One of them was a girl and the other was an old man, both of whom were dressed in a very down-to-earth manner.

The girl walked to the middle of the main hall and suddenly sang: “The north wind blows, the snowflakes flutter, the snowflakes flutter, the new year is coming…”

When everyone saw the two, they suddenly looked confused, because they didn’t know what the two were doing?

But when they saw Xiao Ming’s indifferent expression, they still looked seriously.

After the girl sang, the old man started talking, and the performance got on track.

Xiao Ming was smiling. What he was performing below was “The White-Haired Girl” of later generations, but now it has been adapted by Xiao Ming into a stage play of the Great Chongqing Kingdom. The two of them still wore the traditional costumes of the Great Chongqing Kingdom. Yang Bailao changed from a landlord to a stage play of the Great Chongqing Kingdom. He became a powerful man in Qingzhou.

In terms of content, there have also been many changes. Although in the early stage it was still about Xi’er being forced to sell herself by powerful men, later the Qingzhou Army came to power and drove away the powerful men, and everyone ended happily.

During the performance of the drama, Xiao Ming paid attention to the reactions of the officials below. Lu Fei and others watched with great interest, sometimes clenching their fists and sometimes gnashing their teeth.

But Pang Yukun and Zhan Xingchang seemed to be thinking about something.

At the end of the theatrical performance, Lu Feiteng stood up and cursed: “I’ll beat you Yang Bailao to death!”

Before he could go out, Niu Ben pushed him down on his seat and cursed: “Idiot, this is a show, you still take it seriously. “

Lu Fei only reacted at this time, but it shocked the person who played Yang Bailao.

After the play ended, Pang Yukun said: “Your Highness, I have never seen this kind of play before, but it is simple and unpretentious, and it can make people feel the same.”

“No, I took it all seriously.” Lu Fei laughed.

Xiao Ming glanced at the people in the hall and asked, “What do you think will happen if this drama is to be toured among the people?”

“Of course the common people will hate the arrogance and be even more grateful to His Highness who drove away the wealthy Qingzhou clan.” Zhan Xingchang said: “But in my opinion, His Highness’s purpose is more than that. This drama is false in the fiefdom, but it may be true when it spreads to nearby vassal states.”

Xiao Ming looked at Zhan Xingchang in surprise. This time Zhan Xingchang What Chang said was not false at all.

Naturally, Xiao Ming did not prepare this “White-Haired Girl” for the people of the fiefdom. After all, the people now know his achievements and there is no need to brag repeatedly. The real purpose of this drama is to spread it to the people of other vassal states.

In this way, the potential meaning of this drama will take root in the hearts of the people, which will make them dissatisfied with the local power and increase their yearning for Qingzhou.

In this way, not only can the refugees make up their mind to go to Qingzhou, but also they can gain a popular base in the place where the drama spreads at a very small cost.

And these common people’s foundation may not be used in the future, but arranging it now is better than doing nothing at all.

In addition, this form of drama is also the beginning of the Renaissance. In the future, people’s wisdom can be opened up through this form of drama, such as performing “Shang Zhongyong” or “Encouraging Learning”.

People sometimes don’t like literary and melodramatic dramas, but straightforward dramas are more likely to penetrate people’s hearts.

“My heart is as clear as heaven and earth, Xingchang, don’t talk nonsense.” Xiao Ming said lightly. Although his purpose was indeed what Zhan Xingchang said, he would not admit it.

Because he knows that the wealthy people will be furious when they see this play, and he doesn’t want to cause trouble with Xiao Wenxuan again, so this play will only be performed in Qingzhou. As for other theater troupes learning from it, he can’t be blamed.

Xiao Ming denied it, and Zhan Xingchang immediately understood, “Your Highness is absolutely right. We have never seen this drama.”

“Hahaha…” Pang Yukun stroked his beard and laughed, instantly understanding.

Niu Ben and Lu Fei stared at each other, and they were even more confused. They had no idea what the three of them were talking about.

The singing and dancing time is short, but the drama behind it is very long. After the performance, it was already very late.

At this time, Xiao Ming said: “Everyone, let’s have a glass of wine together. After tonight, tomorrow will be the next year. You should encourage me to do this together!”

Niu ran, and Pang Yukun took the lead and raised his wine glass, looking excited, “My lord, I will do my best to assist His Highness in revitalizing the country!”

“Please!”

Xiao Ming was a little excited at this time, and drank the wine in one gulp, thinking in his heart: “I am here in the 18th century.”
