Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

The lady Furong was seen in the dark last time, so she couldn't see clearly, but today she took a closer look.I saw that she was quite tall, with a slightly plump figure, with a towering lily bun and a huge Luoyang red peony on her hair.There is an open-sleeve shirt with a golden swastika pattern, and a dark red floral skirt embroidered with stone-blue peony flowers. A long and slender purple-colored tie is loosely tied. Her snow-white and plump arms are faintly visible in the blouse. , with a towering chest, and a pair of red phoenix eyes with various styles.

"Beifang and Nanfang are really fat and thin." Tang Wuyi commented.

Wen Tao said: "There is a saying in the ancients that the girl of Yan is graceful and the girl of Chu is graceful. Sincerity is not to be deceived."

"How come you are always like a book bag at such a young age." Tang Wuyi laughed.

Wen Tao said happily: "Master always told me that one can understand world affairs after reading thousands of volumes of books. I always didn't believe it before, but now it seems that Master is also right. However, it is very good to go and see for yourself. OK."

Tang Wuyi admired his attitude of seeking evidence for everything in his heart, and reminded him with a smile that Lady Furong was going to sing "Beauty Walk".

"Beautiful People's Walk" was written by the poet sage of the previous dynasty. The whole poem is majestic and magnificent, with a luxurious bearing, which is very suitable for the lady of Beifang.Ladies in the north are good at Qing songs, and don't need too many musical accompaniments, only drums, solemn and steady.

"The weather is new on March [-]rd, and there are many beautiful people by the water in Chang'an."

The first sentence he uttered shocked the audience.The lake of Jinyuan covers an area of ​​several mu, so it can be said that it is not small, but Lady Furong's throat sang, and the sound spread throughout the garden, and went straight to the sky, causing all the guests present to feel their scalps tingling for a while.

The next two sentences are "the expression is thick, the meaning is far and gentle, and the texture is delicate and even. The embroidered clothes shine in late spring, and the gold peacock and silver unicorn are woven." Furong lady spoke again, with a graceful and gentle voice.And when it comes to "what's on the head? Cuiwei's leaves hang down on the temples and lips. What do you see behind? The beads are pressed against the waist and the body is stable", the lady Furong walked around the stage as if she was asking and answering herself, which was very interesting.As she sang, she moved her steps lightly.When she walks, she is not as light and agile as a lady in Xinxin, but is as natural as the beauty in the painting.

The scene of this song is grand, but it is good at satire.Ordinary kabuki sing this song, all of which sing the grand and magnificent scenes so thoroughly that people yearn for it, but lose the original meaning of the song.When Lady Furong sang this song, there was sadness in her eyes when she described the grand scene, and there was irony in the song.Wait until the last two sentences, "It's so hot, so be careful not to get angry with the prime minister!" The voice is high-pitched, and the sense of grief and indignation is shocking.

A song was sung, and the audience was full of applause.

Wen Tao sighed: "Sure enough, everyone is a leader, and this trip is worthwhile."

"I heard that the next lady from Dongfang will also have a unique skill."

"What skill?"

"lute."

Pipa is no more popular than singing and dancing, and is sought after by others, but it is sunny and snowy, with few friends.It is only on this grand occasion where the oiran is held, and the guests are all high-ranking celebrities, can this pipa be tasted either majestic and generous, or delicate and graceful.

The flower boat sailed gently, and arrived at the small island in the middle of the lake, and stepped down a woman wearing a snake bun, with only plain silver decorations on her head.She is tall and thin, wearing a snow-blue silk shirt with open sleeves and cross-neck collar, which is quite ancient, and she came with a pipa in her arms, her every move is very dignified and elegant, she is Cuiyun, the lady of Dongfang Huakui.

It was almost dusk at this time, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on Madam Cuiyun, and her original cold snow blue dress was also stained with a blush, making it a little more gentle.

After a while, I could only hear a burst of rolling strings coming eagerly, and the rolling strings were extremely sad and lonely, which was the beginning of "Autumn Moon in the Han Palace".

The Jin Garden, which was still somewhat noisy, fell silent all of a sudden, and all the guests were brought into the melancholy of "The Autumn Moon in the Han Palace".

The beauty of Lady Cuiyun is different from that of the ladies in the North and South Erfangs.The southern square is slim and light, the northern square is graceful and luxurious, while the eastern square is full of talent and has nowhere to complain. I saw the lady Cuiyun frowning slightly, with a pair of onion-like hands flying up and down on the pipa. Same as the song, it is full of emotions and thoughts, and the listener seems to be caught and trapped in this boundless worry.

The song ended, the sky was dark, and a full moon rose, casting a bright shadow in the center of the lake. The moonlight shone on Lady Cuiyun, and it was very cold and unstoppable.

"This song should be number one." Wen Tao sighed, "The blend of scenes is impeccable."

"It's good, but it's a bit too miserable." Tang Wuyi grinned, "It's unbearable. Hey, Taotao, the next one is lively, so watch it."

"Oh? A musical?"

"Exactly. Over the years, there have been no singing and dancing dramas participating in the oiran system. This year is the first time. Don't miss it."

Song and dance dramas originated in the marketplace, and they were originally unrefined, but they are more lively and cheerful.Putting it after "Han Palace Autumn Moon", it can be a good change of mood.

In the moonlight, the flower boat docked and carried people to the small island in the middle of the lake.The flower boat did not stop directly on the small island this time, but circled around the small island in the middle of the lake. When everyone was confused, they saw that the boat was suddenly brightly lit, thousands of candles were lit, and A woman dressed in a beard was standing at the bow of the boat.

I saw that she was wearing a Hu jacket with a lapel collar and narrow sleeves, striped pants, and a belt, which made her move quite conveniently.Her face was covered with drama makeup and thick powder, and she drew black lines on her eyes and red lips like a bearded girl.Looking from a distance, it doesn't look like a style.

She jumped onto the deck lightly, and said crisply: "I am Princess Qiuci."

He jumped down again, put on an ugly Kunlun slave mask, and said in a low and dull voice, "I am Princess Qiuci's son-in-law."

Everyone saw that she was playing two roles, which was ridiculous, and they all found it quite amusing.

I saw Lady Danfeng and White Lady jumping onto the deck again, weeping and complaining in the tone of Princess Qiuci: "I am a princess with golden branches, jade leaves, flowers and beautiful appearance, but my father matched me with an ugly man. Look at him, he is as stupid as a piece of wood, with a protruding The mouth is yellow and the teeth are not to be seen, woo woo woo, have a pity for my natural beauty to fall into the mud."

The lady of Xifang talked coquettishly for a while, and sang the lyrics tactfully for a while.Her big eyes are extra vivid with theatrical makeup.And when she played the role of son-in-law, her voice was low and her speech stuttered, she really looked like a stupid ugly man.She didn't get off the boat, but the flower boat with candle lights moved left and right in the lake, following the conversation between the princess and the son-in-law, it was like a moving stage.

All the guests present were amused, clapping their hands and laughing or applauding from time to time.

At the end of the opera, I saw the princess and the son-in-law making a fuss, insisting that the son-in-law pick off the stars for him.The son-in-law wearing the Kunlun slave mask hesitated, and suddenly threw out a handful of lamp moths, which flew towards the sky like stars all over the sky, which lasted for a long time.The moth lingered on the lake for a long time, which attracted applause from the guests.
