Chapter 441: Su Xue, everyone
After all the big names were seated, the president of the Qinglou Guild announced the start of the meeting, which made Shen Mo quite appreciative, at least there was no extremely disappointing leader's speech.
In the place of the debacle was a cannon shot on the lake, directing people's eyes to the center of the lake.
When people were still at a loss, they only heard a scream piercing the night sky, accompanied by bursts of exclamations, fireworks shot into the sky, and in a blink of an eye, they bloomed like chrysanthemums. For a while, half of the night sky was colorful, splendid, so beautiful that people forgot to breathe.
Shen Mo was also the first time to see such a grand fireworks, and he regretted that he didn't bring Ruohan with him.
It's just that in this era, the cost of fireworks is extremely high, even in the Suzhou Qinglou world, which is not bad, it can only be set off for half an hour, and in such a short time, thousands of taels of silver will flow out......
Half an hour later, the fireworks dispersed and looked over. In the night sky without a trace, people are reluctant to bow their heads for a long time, as if they are reminiscing about the gorgeous spring dream just now. This is also the disadvantage of fireworks, the more shocking the splendor of the moment, the more regrettable it is.
But when they bow their heads and set their eyes on the lake. When I faced, the regret in my heart disappeared immediately, and in its place, it was excited, extremely excited!
Because those in the middle of the lake have been deliberately collected. When no one was paying attention, the flower boats lit up the thousands of lights on the ship - the beautiful flower boats decorated with each other were displayed in front of everyone.
I saw that the river was as bright as day, and the colorful flowers on the boat were reflected again. On the water, accompanied by the rippling waves of the lake, the colors are unpredictable, making people more and more dazzling.
It wasn't until the boats got closer that the audience could see that these boats were although. They are all beautiful and gorgeous, but they also have their own themes. For example, the Yihong Courtyard decorates its own flower boat into a large garden...... Peonies, peonies, camellias, magnolias, all kinds of lanterns, create a scene of a hundred flowers blooming. A fair woman in a goose-yellow palace dress stood in it, looking forward to life. People can't help but think of the spring when the warbler sings and swallows dance and the bees fly, and a noble concubine comes to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers and make spring.
There are also flower boats decorated into a bird garden, in the weeping willows full of branches, full of trees. In the gold-hung 'woods', there are all kinds of bird lanterns, and in the most eye-catching place, there is a woman wearing a dark green peacock feather long skirt standing slim, as if listening to the birds chirping and singing a song 'Hundred Birds and Phoenix'.
What is the original flower boat. The theme is not to be done by the craftsmen, but to match the characteristics of the participating beauties, so that they complement each other and shine brightly. If you do it, you will definitely be able to add points before the official performance, and you can also cover up the original shortcomings, or even turn them into advantages. For example, the Hundred Gardens, precisely because the girl is plump, seems to suffer a little from the petite and delicate beauties. But after this scene of 'the concubine appreciating peonies', it made people suddenly feel that she was the embodiment of the four beauties, and she should be so plump, so she turned her shortcomings into advantages.
The rest of the families also crossed the sea with eight immortals, each showing their magical powers, and they had to decorate the flower boat into a Yao Pond, needless to say, the beauties dressed up as seven fairies; Some of them are decorated with beautiful West Lake, and I don't know whether the beauties of their family are Su Xiaoxiao or Bai Suzhen, but they are some failures.
And so on and so forth, to feast the audience's eyes and whet people's appetites.
In anticipation, the first flower boat of 'Yihong Courtyard', that is, the 'Yang Guifei' Xiao Cuixian appeared.
The little cuixian is really a very beautiful woman, gestures, light smile has its own charming taste, she is draped in a gorgeous skirt like a rainbow, her whole body is decorated with Yingluo, the crown is also extremely gorgeous, and the crown is shaken ...... As the name suggests, the crown will sway with the pace, and it will also make the people below itch and scratch.
She was the runner-up of the previous year, and her reputation is already very large, which can be seen from the endless cheers she attracted as soon as she took the stage. For this year's Oiran, Xiao Cuixian and her owner are also bound to win, I saw her standing on the stage, introducing herself to a set of scores, dances, and even costumes of "Ni Dress and Feather Dance", and practicing in retreat for more than half a year, striving to perfectly reproduce the first dance of the Tang Dynasty composed by Li Longji and choreographed and led by Yang Guifei.
People's appetites were naturally aroused, and the noise in the arena soon stopped, and everyone looked at the stage quietly. After reading the book, people with more taste want to see if this song "Neon Dress and Feather Dance" can show the ethereal fairyland and fairy image after a thousand years, and whether it can be like a thousand years ago**.
Even ordinary people who don't know what a 'raincoat dance' is, they also know the moving story of Emperor Tang Ming's gray Yang Guifei, so they are also looking forward to it, and want to see what kind of dance this unruly emperor couple has come up with...... Eighty percent is a glamorous dance, right? So thought to them.
Fortunately, Xiao Cuixian couldn't hear everyone's thoughts, and was not affected in the slightest to beckon the dancer to come to the stage, surrounding her stars in the center like a moon. Seeing her put on a posture, everyone's eyes widened and they held their breath, lest they miss every picture.
When she heard a cloud board sound, she lightly opened her lips and sang: "The sky is sinking and the night is not young, and the blue cloud fairy song is dancing; A jade flute to the air, the moon is full and the Lishan Palace leaks a long ......" When the last sentence is chanted, the music gradually rises, lyrical and elegant, not hurried or slow, it is played by chime, flute, zheng, flute and other musical instruments in turn, and the performers on the stage do not dance or sing.
When people were immersed in the lyrical music, they finally saw the self-pitying dancer move, with light sleeves and delicate bodies, leading the women to dance the eternal neon dress dance.
I only heard her let go of her singing voice and sang: "Luo sleeves are fragrant, and red ferns are curling in the autumn smoke." The wind is shaking on the light cloud ridge, and the water is blowing at the edge of the tender willow pond. With the singing, the figure is fluttering, and gradually jumping like the wind, which is dazzling.
The music is getting faster and faster, and her dancing is getting faster and faster! At that moment, she had completely incarnated as the shocking Yang Guifei, and the neon dress and feather dance were perfectly integrated!
Until the music gradually slowed down, her dancing posture also softened, 'the willow is weak after the little hanging hand, and the clouds are about to be born when the slanting skirt is swaying', and finally at the same time when the music stopped abruptly, she also stopped with her back to the audience, just when everyone was reluctant to give up, I saw her 'looking back and smiling', and suddenly felt that 'the six palaces have no color', and I was stupid for a while, and then I applauded desperately.
Little Cuixian's performance was extremely successful, which can be clearly felt from the long-lasting applause of the crowd. Then several famous scribes discussed it and sent a representative to the stage to comment on it, saying that she was "dancing beautifully and gracefully", which was pleasing to the eye...... In the era of Tang Jieyuan, a few recognized candidates were selected by the voice of the masses, and then a few famous scribes could be tasted, and the Oiran candidates could be produced.
But now it's not good, whether it's the voice of the masses, or the comments of celebrities and celebrities, it can only be regarded as a reference - now there is only one standard for ranking the rankings, that is, the number of golden flowers obtained by the beauties, on the surface, because there is no quantitative standard, the results of the election are often very controversial, in fact, everyone knows, this is just to change the way to make money, because sending a golden flower will get one or two gold, these money are the rich people sitting in the front row!
One tael of gold is equal to eight taels of silver, and one golden flower is enough for a well-off family to spend a season comfortably.
In the shaking of the head and sigh of Gui Youguang and other celebrities, 'the world is under the wind, and the people's hearts are not ancient', the sending of flowers has begun, this one sends eight, that one sends ten, and after a while, nearly a hundred flowers have been accumulated. Of course, this is not the final result, if the later beauties get more golden flowers than her, then her supporters can continue to add, unlimited times, unlimited number!
It can be seen that the organizers are very aware of people's psychology of comparing and showing off their wealth, and they know that as long as they compete, it is not unusual for these uncles to throw out money.
Sure enough, as the beauties behind came to the stage to compete for beauty, each showing its own merits, the number of golden flowers in the statistics also climbed steadily, and after two hours, although Xiao Cuixian was still ranked first, the number of golden flowers had exceeded 2,000. But the lead is not obvious, Liu Hanyan, Yun Xian'er, and Lu Liuqing have many supporters, and they have all won 1,000 **hundred, it seems that they have to wait for the last ** competition to get the results!
According to the experience of previous years, the number of flowers sent in the last round will be doubled on the current basis. Because many people who feel that they have status will be the last to strike, so that they can be regarded as decisive figures.
The four beauties stood under the stage with a smile, but their eyes were full of fierce murderous aura, and they couldn't wait to kill each other.
At this time, the president of the Qinglou Guild and the host of the conference said loudly on the stage: "Are there any more players?" If not, count the preliminary results now...... "Although he has the registration form in his hand, many Qinglou and beauties who have already signed up will retreat after watching the performance of the people in front of them, and they don't want to humiliate themselves, so he is not sure if there are anyone who wants to participate."
He asked twice, and was just about to announce the end of the performance, when suddenly there was a commotion from the lake, which soon attracted everyone to cross the Yaotai and look towards Jinji Lake, only to see that there was an extra boat in the lake at some point, with a flat canopy, without any decoration, and without hanging lanterns like other boats. Not to mention the flower boats with a lot of flowers, even compared with the cruise ships and boats taken by the rich, they are also overshadowed, and they are willing to bow down.
The boat is very inconspicuous, and the people on board stand out!
People can clearly see that a woman like a hollow valley orchid is standing on the head of the boat. The night breeze blows, swinging her snow-white clothes, like a fairy in the mortal world, even if the night is misty, it is difficult to hide her bright and moving figure, as if to fly into the air, and as if to dissolve into the night.
Cultured people, suddenly thought of Luoshen, its shape also, fluttering like a frightening Hong, graceful like a dragon, Rong Yao Qiu Ju, Huamao Chun Song. It seems to be like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like the snow of the wind......
If you are uneducated, you can only open your mouth wide and scream in your heart, why is it so good-looking!
In everyone's great anticipation, the boat finally landed on the left bank, which was as bright as day, and the woman in white finally appeared.
A gust of evening breeze blew on the lake, blowing a little green silk on her and covering half of her pretty face, but her eyes couldn't hide it. The sky was full of stars, and the lakeside was lit up with brilliant light, but her eyes were even more moving than the stars, brighter than the lights.
Where the night breeze stopped, her black hair hung down, revealing her beautiful face, and her snow-white cheeks exuded a burning glow in the night, making people dare not look at it...... Yes, this beauty is absolutely beautiful, but it also makes people feel cold, not the frost that rejects people thousands of miles away, but like the white plum in the wax moon, it is not contested or beautiful, but it makes people dare not play with it from the heart.
The ice is clear and jade, and the lonely fang appreciates itself.
All the sounds on the shore have long since disappeared, and everyone's heartbeats follow her movements, as if the sound of slightly heavy breathing will disturb this fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, so that she is startled and flies back to the nine heavens.
When people came back to their senses, there was no shadow of a beautiful woman on the boat, and they looked for it in a daze, and finally saw the fairy sitting in front of the piano on the yaotai.
The president of the Qinglou Guild saw the finale, and knew that this session must be a success, so he said excitedly: "Please enjoy Su Xue's double piano and songs!" ”
There was a 'bang', and the crowd was in a tidal commotion: "It turns out that she is Su Xue's family!" It's so beautiful...... ""That is, the first of the twelve hairpins in Jinling, it is really extraordinary, not comparable to our vulgar fat fans in Suzhou......" "Yes, yes." All kinds of words fell on the ears of Xiao Cuixian, Liu Hanyan and other beauties, and they were so angry that their noses were crooked.
At this time, there was a sound of the piano, which pulled everyone's minds back to Yaotai and returned to Su Xue.
But seeing that on the high platform, the white-clothed Shengxue, Su Xue's slender fingers were beating rapidly or slowly on the strings. At this moment, she has lost the cold demeanor of Fang Cai, a pair of wonderful eyes stared at the strings intently, and her expression changed with the music, as if there was nothing else between heaven and earth except this piano, and even a long hair danced lightly with the swing of her body to cover half of her face.
Looking at this maverick woman, a glimmer of realization rose in Shen Mo's heart, she had dedicated all her body and mind to Qin Dao......
The sound of the piano is long, like spring returning to the earth, flowers are like brocade, hummingbirds are excited, and the world is shining; After a while, it was like a flowing wind and snow, changing the world, the scenery in everyone's eyes was bleak, the ruins and broken walls, only to see the flowers and willows withered, a dusk, and the mood was also depressed.
At this time, I heard her lightly open her lips, and her voice was like a yellow warbler singing: "It turns out that the purple and red are all over the place, and they are all paid to the broken wells like this." The beautiful scenery of the good day is the day, whose courtyard is the pleasure? Flying towards the twilight roll, the clouds are cuixuan. The rain and the wind are sheets, and the smoke waves paint the boat. The Shaoguang cheapness that Jinping people see, the Shaoguang cheapness that Jinping people look at......"
The lyrics seem to be sung by Shen Mo that day, but compared to his ridiculous singing, it is a hundred times stronger, obviously after the rearrangement of Su Xue girl, in the atmosphere without big gongs and drums, only in the form of a cappella singing, it can be clear and far-reaching, and the melody is more beautiful and beautiful.
After several turns, I sang 'It is like a flower for you, like a year.' At that time, Shen Mo was already drunk that day and did not sing any further, so Su Xue made up this singing with her super musical literacy, and listened to her continue to sing: "But I only hate the young boy for being very kind, and my tears are wet." At the beginning, the sisters made it clear that they should not be sincere to him. Thinking about it carefully, is it okay to understand it lightly? ”
……
At the end of the song, the aftermath lingers.
Applause? There is no applause, it's not unworthy, it's really not possible - people are reluctant to speak out for a long time, lest they fall out of that poignant artistic conception and leave endless regrets. This time, even the most vulgar people have grown their mouths and felt the indescribable touch.
After a long time, bursts of thunderous applause rang out, which lasted for a long time and resolutely did not stop, until Su Xue and everyone had to return to the stage, and then they took a break.
Su Xue had no choice but to play another song, but the audience was still reluctant to let her go, and she didn't stop until she returned for three consecutive shows, and then looked at the number of golden flowers she got, which had exceeded 10,000!
The gap can't be bridged, and the final battle is meaningless, but the president of the Qinglou Guild is still happy to keep his mouth shut, and one Su Xue and everyone have already reached all, so what is there to regret?
This year's Oiran fell on Su Xue's head without controversy, and Xiaoxianglou also received a plaque of 'Sole Oiran' and a bonus of 30,000 taels of silver.
Then there is the award of the laurel of the Oiran...... According to the convention, it has always been awarded by Lord Fuzun, and at the invitation of everyone, Shen Mo happily came to the stage, and he was still honored that Su Xue could sing his own song to win the championship.
Put on the laurel crown for Miss Su Xue with her own hands, and just as she was about to go down, she heard the president smile and said: "My lord, please stay, according to the rules, Miss Su can also fulfill one of her wishes, please witness it on your behalf." ”
