Chapter 38 Nostalgia
Yueniang made playing, playing, singing and dancing the focus of this "Super Oiran" competition. Originally, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, except that the piano can make people who don't understand can listen to the excitement, the audience for the other three is too small. They are all things that literati and refined scholars like to do.Since the "Super Oiran" is playing the sign of "having fun with the people", of course it must be fun for most people, otherwise if you few oirans are playing chess on the stage, the audience will probably be bored to death.As a specialty, it can be used as an embellishment for the girls, and the long-term worth is not bad. If it is used in a competition, I am afraid that it will not be popular.Calculated in this way, the Yuzhu girl is a bit at a disadvantage, who made that her strong point.

Directly opposite and below the stage, there are more than 31 round tables, surrounded by wooden fences to separate the people from the people. These 21 tables are filled with well-known and promising celebrities in the capital, leaders of the girls' relatives and friends. Mixed among them; in the wooden fence below the left side of the stage, there are [-] public judges selected from the red building; behind the stage, there is a row of ten long tables leaning on the wooden fence, and on each table is a large There is a red lantern with a girl's flower name hanging above the wine jar and each table.This is the place where people outside the venue vote. Three people are in charge of watching a wine jar, one counting votes, one counting copper coins, and one monitoring votes. It is the group of relatives and friends of the girls, pulling up various banners, writing cheering slogans, holding flowers, holding gongs and drums, and wearing neatly colored headscarves.Tsk tsk, this formation is really not inferior to fans from all walks of life in the [-]st century, I chuckled in my heart.

On the stage, the three judges and followers sat on the right side, and the accompaniment musicians sat on the left side.The master of ceremonies for this competition is Yue Niang herself. Today's competition has two rounds. After the opening dance, each girl will perform a section of their best musical instrument in turn, and then the judges will select a girl with the weakest performance and The girl with the lowest support rate among the people at the scene will have a "showdown", and then voted by the public judges. The winner of the number of votes will enter the second round of the competition and perform another round of singing and dancing. The second girl today will be eliminated in the same way. Strong is born.

To be honest, it is not without reason that Yihonglou has occupied the signboard of "No. The people here are drooling all over the place.Even those celebrities who often go in and out of Goulan have bright eyes and look forward to it.The girls are all good at musical instruments, such as guqin, guzheng, flute, erhu, seven strings, pipa... The first round of the competition was exciting at the beginning, attracting applause from the audience. He was even more excited, shouting slogans desperately on the stage.Looking at the situation, no matter which one is eliminated, there will be a commotion. I lowered my head and thought for a while, and asked Xiaohong to quietly invite Yueniang over.

Yue Niang moved to my side without leaving a trace, with a questioning expression on her face: "Miss, what's the matter?"

"Later, if the supporters of the eliminated girl are unconvinced and start a fight, Mother Yue has figured out a countermeasure?" This game doesn't matter to me. After all, it has always been her wish to be the first red card in Yihonglou, and she is also determined to win this "Super Oiran" number one spot.

"This..." Yueniang hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "There are so many adults here, and Master Fuyi even sent a policeman..."

I smiled and interrupted her: "It's really troublesome, I'm afraid it won't help."

Yueniang glanced at me anxiously: "What does that girl mean...?"

I pondered for a while, and said: "Before the duel, you have to tell everyone that the name 'Super Oiran' is not for the top three. The girls who entered the top ten are all 'Super Oiran'. In addition, For the girls who are not shortlisted in the top three, Yihonglou has another arrangement. They can be organized into a band, named "Super Oiran Orchestra", as another living signboard of Yihonglou, and we want to show off the "competition second, friendship The first' atmosphere of peaceful competition. Give the eliminated girls and their supporters a little hope, otherwise people who voted with real money will be in vain like this, and they must be in a bad mood. There is an accident down below, and Mother Yue is not easy to explain." Watching the ongoing competition, she suddenly remembered "Twelve Women's Band", and leaned these eliminated girls to that group, even if it doesn't work in the future, deal with it The situation that may arise in front of us is also good.

Yue Niang's eyes lit up, the more she listened, the more convinced she became, she nodded repeatedly and said: "Thank you for your guidance." She turned around and walked away.

I went on to watch the game, but I heard the man sitting next to me chuckle and say: "I think you are more versatile than Boss Yue. If you start a new one, I'm afraid that the signboard of 'the first in the capital' will change hands?"

"I'm just kidding, I don't have the intention of doing evil." I said lightly, "I have incurred a whole body of evil debts for nothing."

"Debts? Then why don't you melt your own debts for yourself?" He smiled lazily and said casually, "Listen to Ping An, you are willing to stay in Yihonglou by yourself?"

"Who really wants to stay in the place of fireworks?" My expression darkened, "Staying, there are always unspeakable difficulties."

"Even I can't tell?" He turned his eyes to look at me, "Why don't you tell me."

"I know, it's not good for me." I smiled, "It's better for my relationship with me to be simpler."

He held my hand tightly, and said with a sneer, "You girl, are you still fighting against me?"

"It's not vindictiveness, sir." I looked at him with a faint smile, but my eyes were very serious, "It's true."

He looked at me unpredictably, and I lowered my eyelids.At this time, there was a pleasant sound of the piano on the stage, which came to the listener with a sense of resentment and melancholy. I turned my head and looked over, and it turned out that girl No. [-] Yuzhu was playing the guqin. I don’t know what piece she was playing. Her piano skills are indeed good, but she seems to be full of thoughts, and the more she listens to it, the more depressed she feels. Unlike Fengge's piano, she has no distractions when playing the piano. Give the piano sound the soul.This Yuzhu girl is too concerned about gains and losses.

After the song was played, several judges began to comment. His Royal Highness Jing Wang spoke first and praised: "The sound of Yuzhu girl's piano is like a trickle, coming from the far shore. Unspeakable."

Yuzhu's fan group below heard the praise and cheered loudly. A faint smile appeared on the corners of Yuzhu's lips: "His Royal Highness Xie Jingwang."

But I heard the Ninth Prince laughing and said: "Uncle Wang is full of praise for Miss Yuzhu. Miss Yuzhu's song 'Shanshui' expresses the dynamics of flowing water vividly, but it lacks the solemnity of the mountain. Uncle Wang, Do you think so?"

The smile on Yuzhu's face faded, King Jing stroked his beard and nodded: "It is indeed a little bit more serious, General Ji, what do you think?"

Ji Jingyun smiled and said: "I am a rough man, but I can't explain so much reasoning from the two princes, I just think Miss Yuzhu's piano sound sounds very sad, and it makes me feel sad after listening to it for a long time."

I smiled, Ji Jingyun, who doesn't know the piano, can really hear the taste.Mr. Yu pinched me under his sleeve and said softly, "What do you think?"

I smiled and said softly: "Miss Yuzhu is not in a stable mood, maybe she is a little nervous."

Young Master Yu glanced at me with a smile, only to hear Yueniang laughing and saying: "Thank you three adults for your comments on Miss Yuzhu. Next up is Miss Hongye No. [-]. She is playing the pipa song 'Huanqin'."

As soon as the words fell, there was only a burst of lively and funny piano music jumping. When Hongye appeared on the stage like a cheerful elf, Hongye's fans cheered enthusiastically in the audience.Her attire caught everyone's eyes, and they gasped.It seems that I have drawn the right treasure, I laughed, Hongye, Hongye, don't let me down.

The girls in front played musical instruments in a well-behaved manner, either sitting or standing, but she was the only one who danced while playing, with a pink face full of spring, charming eyes but not flirtatious, and her dancing posture was alluring but not lewd.My younger brother Ye Zi in the previous life has learned the pipa for more than ten years, so I know that the pipa is actually the most difficult instrument to learn among the folk instruments. There are many and complicated fingerings. people admire.I was fascinated by watching the red leaves jumping and dancing on the stage, as if she had really turned into the flying sky in the Dunhuang frescoes, with elegant clothes, elegant wind, fluttering ribbons and flying flowers.Feitian, the musician under the seat of the Buddha, if it is so radiant and incomprehensible, why do the Buddhas seek liberation?Why bother to say that form is emptiness and emptiness is form?The reason why the Buddha became a Buddha is probably because of this flying sky, right?Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing, Hongye, Hongye, you really didn't disappoint me.

After Hongye finished dancing, the venue was silent. After a long while, applause came from the judges' bench, which immediately aroused applause and cheers from the audience off the stage. Hongye's fans were so excited that they roared hoarsely. It took a long time to greet the audience before the enthusiasm of the audience gradually calmed down.I only heard King Jing on the stage looking at Hongye with interest, pinching his beard and saying: "Girl Hongye is outstanding at the piano, and her dancing skills are even more outstanding. The piece you played is cheerful and festive. I have never heard of it before. I don't know." Which musician did it?"

Hongye smiled generously and said, "His Royal Highness King Jing said, this song has a great origin. It was composed by our girl Carmen who leans on the red building, and it was composed by Master Yuefengge."

"Oh?" King Jing looked back at Ji Jingyun, and asked with a smile, "But that girl Carmen who made General Ji fall in love at first sight?"

"Exactly." Hongye smiled and helped Ji Jingyun, who was slightly embarrassed, and glanced at me. I smiled and shook my head slightly, suggesting that she should not be too ostentatious.Hongye sticks out her tongue and shuts her mouth cleverly.

"Nephew Nine Emperors, Miss Hongye is really eye-catching today." King Jing laughed and teased Lord Nine.Ninth Prince smiled and said: "This girl has always been lucky."

I don't care about the next performance anymore, I just think about Hongye's next round of singing and dancing, but Mr. Yu seems to be watching the performance wholeheartedly, but keeps playing and pinching my palm, and doesn't speak, I don't know Thinking about something.At the end of the round, girl No. [-] Luoshuang and girl No. [-] Caiyun are going to have a duel, and the stage really started to stir up a commotion. Excitement.As a result, Miss Luoshuang won the duel and entered the second round.

This round of Yuzhu was still playing the piano, and sang a sad song while playing. I have never heard the song in time and space anyway, and I can't remember the lyrics. Anyway, the tune is not bad, she has a good voice, and The singing is soft and full of knots, which makes people feel sore.My heart was tense, Hongye's next song is also taking this route, the two of them are afraid that they will collide, but Hongye wins because it is "original", so it should be able to add some points.

When Hong Ye appeared on the stage, everyone was surprised again, I laughed, this girl is really smart.She had already changed out of that sultry flying outfit and put on a plain white skirt. The style was extremely simple, and there was almost no decoration on her whole body. Only a mulberry flower and hosta gleaming with light were inserted in the spirit snake bun. , indescribably elegant and demure.In the whole match, after two rounds, she was the only one who changed her clothes, which shows that this girl spent a lot of time preparing. I glanced thoughtfully at the Ninth Prince who was sitting there. Hongye herself was not that careful. Zhao'er was probably supported by the ninth master.

She sat in the middle of the stage with her pipa in her arms, picked out a few notes gracefully and softly with her wrist, a melody sounded softly, and the audience was silent for a moment, I laughed, such a classic piece, why do I have no confidence in it?Hongye played it calmly, not in a hurry to sing, and played the whole melody until the elegant singing sounded.

The sound of the pipa is still ringing here.

After thousands of years of searching, the old dream is still vague.

This sigh is how much sorrow in the world.

The end of the world drifts down in Xunyang, tears of sadness.

The sound of the pipa is still ringing here.

Plain hands play the pipa, and the pipa sounds crisp and clear.

Keep playing with low eyebrows, keep playing, and play to the limitless things in your heart.

Keep your eyebrows low and continue to play, continue to play, and play to the limitless things in your heart.

The laughter has become a memory of yesterday.

Plain hands play the pipa, and the pipa sounds crisp and clear.

It is clear that there are tears in the eyes, there are teardrops, what is the long-term parting in the world.

Clearly there are tears, there are teardrops, there is no place in the world to send lovesickness.

The laughter has become a memory of yesterday.

The beauty is not as old as it used to be, and she is empty and sad.

This sigh is how much sorrow in the world.

After thousands of years of loneliness, I sigh alone.

After thousands of years of loneliness, I sigh alone.

I fell into the torrent of memory, vaguely as if I was still in the small courtyard of my hometown, I took the guitar, Ye Zi hugged the pipa, the two of them entertained themselves crazily, this "Pipa Language" is Ye Zi's favorite piece of pipa, I like the focused expression on his low eyebrows playing the pipa, although when he insisted on learning the pipa, I used to make fun of him learning how to learn the instrument played by women.Although I don't know how to play the pipa, I also like the sound of the pipa. Ye Zi loves the album "Pipa Xiang" the most. I bought three copies for him. At that time, he scolded me for wasting money. I smiled and said, I'm afraid you won't listen He couldn't buy it, which made his eye circles red.

Ye Zi, Ye Zi, now we are far apart, and we will never have the chance to meet again in this life. From now on, you must walk your way well, change your violent temper, and stop worrying your sister, okay?Tears flowed down in the familiar melody, I felt my hand was held tightly, turned my face, the man beside me looked at me silently, and I gave him a gentle smile in the hazy tears.
