Chapter 43: Fanghua Love Poems
Shen Fangli was in charge of the rehearsals, and she set the rehearsal time before dinner, so that there were fewer club activities during this time, and there was no one to disturb the college auditorium, and secondly, she could use the dinner to stimulate them to work harder.
In order to mobilize the members of the student union, Shen Fangli also said a lot of cheering and cheering things, but it was not as artistic as Mu Yunxi said, that guy would often use some passionate words to match his strange behavior.
However, after changing into a women's costume, Mu Yunxi's behavior was much more restrained, as if he had changed into a different person. In front of everyone was a blonde-haired and deep-eyed princess of Xuanluguo, who was dressed in a snow-white dress and silk gloves, so beautiful that even Shen Fangli sighed to herself.
Facing everyone's onlookers, Mu Yunxi's face turned crimson, and she wanted to take off her costume immediately, saying that she didn't want to play the role of Princess Mass Lilin very much, so she asked Shen Fangli to change her role as soon as possible.
Shen Fangli looked Mu Yunxi's dress up and down, Mu Yunxi's shy expression seemed more like playing tsundere in her opinion, she asked Liu Yuhan beside her, and asked her what she thought of Mu Yunxi's outfit?
Liu Yuhan smiled and applauded: "Very good, Lord, your dress will definitely win more praise for our school festival!"
"Oh, beautiful Princess Mass Lilin, would you like me to kiss your right hand?" Jia Chao tried desperately to hold back his laughter, and he bowed to Mu Yunxi very gentlemanly.
The Xianyin sisters showed a look as if they had met Mu Yunxi for the first time, and said in unison: "Oh my God, who is this great beauty? Didn't our elder come today?"
Mu Yunxi clasped his hands and shook his head, "Okay...... You guys don't make fun of me anymore.,If it weren't for the school festival.,I'd rather hang myself than touch women's clothes again.γ β
"I think this heroine belongs to you, Sister Yuhan, what do you think?"
Seeing that Liu Yuhan nodded seriously, Shen Fangli discussed with her how to dress up before Mu Yunxi appeared on the stage, and the two girls fiddled with Mu Yunxi's wig and fake breasts, and their skillful techniques were like dressing up a doll.
Jia Chao, who witnessed all this process, smiled from ear to ear, and Mu Yunxi was very aggrieved in his heart, he thought that when the performance was over, he must repair Jia Chao well, so that his friend could see the anger of the adult.
After Mu Yunxi finished dressing up, the first rehearsal officially began, Shen Fangli explained the plot and her adaptation to everyone, she took out several pieces of parchment and handed them to everyone.
"It's not fair, why do I have so many lines?" Mu Yunxi looked at the lines on the parchment and complained to Shen Fangli.
"Hey, the heroine naturally has more scenes, don't complain to me! My lines are not much less than yours. Shen Fangli lowered her head as she spoke, and concentrated on reciting her lines.
"By the way, why don't you play the role of Henros, a commoner knight? A commoner role is more suitable for you than a nobleman, isn't it?"
"Don't worry about it so much, you better memorize your lines with peace of mind and think about how to play it. Shen Fangli didn't pay attention to Mu Yunxi's accosting, but turned to everyone, "By the way, whether Peng Honggui is here today, I want to explain to him about the role he plays." β
"I've always been there, please don't ignore me!"
A voice came from Shen Fangli's side, and she found that Peng Honggui was holding the script with both hands, looking like he wanted to cry without tears.
"Oh, I'm sorry, your presence is too thin, and it's kind of scary to appear out of nowhere. β
Shen Fangli's half-joking apology made Peng Honggui's head seem to have a few more vertical lines, and he didn't know what words to use to express his feelings.
In the interval when Shen Fangli explained the plot to Peng Honggui, Mu Yunxi pulled Liu Yuhan aside, lowered her voice and asked: "According to Fangli's character of not admitting defeat, she will definitely compete with you to play the male lead! β
"You know her well, it's actually ......" Liu Yuhan asked Mu Yunxi to turn his head over and point to a plot in the script.
"What? kiss scene ......" Mu Yunxi carefully read the lines on Liu Yuhan's script, and almost screamed, trying to suppress his voice, "Okay, you Shen Fangli, arrange for me to play Princess Mass Lilin, and Liu Yuhan to play the civilian knight Henros, just to ask the two of us to act in a kiss scene, so that we can make a fool of ourselves in public." β
"No...... I think you misunderstood what she meant, but it was actually her own shyness that took the decision-making power of the stage play rehearsal into her own hands. The corners of Liu Yuhan's mouth showed a shallow smile, "If I decide the rehearsal matter, Shen Fangli will be forced to play the civilian knight Henros." β
"Are you so sure?"
"It's not that I'm sure, but the ambiguous relationship between you has long been revealed. β
Mu Yunxi said that he couldn't understand the light smile on the corner of Liu Yuhan's mouth, and he didn't have much time for him to delve into it, so he had to turn around and memorize the lines hard to cope with the rehearsal half an hour later.
Time passed quickly, and after Shen Fangli saw that everyone's lines were almost memorized, she ordered the rehearsal to begin, and the Dao tools they prepared were swords, shields, spears, etc., and they only discussed the stage layout roughly.
Shen Fangli changed into costumes, and Liu Yuhan stood on the stage to compete with each other in swordsmanship, the two of them were less reserved and gentle, and they were like two dashing knights.
Everyone's understanding of the plot and the analysis of the characters in the play are in place, and the performance effect is quite satisfactory, that is, some old problems such as forgetting words and action coordination need to be corrected as soon as possible, Shen Fangli has repeated more than once, what they want to show is the grievances and hatred of a princess of the kingdom, and they want to reveal the princess's revenge process and her love tragedy through actions and words.
For an amateur director like Shen Fangli, Mu Yunxi is not good at commenting, after all, she can be regarded as doing her best, but she didn't make much regulations for the kiss scene, just let herself and Liu Yuhan pay attention to on-the-spot performance.
Mu Yunxi asked Shen Fangli how he could play well if he didn't do much practice for such a difficult action in the kiss scene, but Shen Fangli's terrifying eyes made him swallow this topic into his stomach.
"If you dare to have any evil thoughts about Yuhan, I will never spare you!"
As soon as these words came out, Mu Yunxi no longer dared to make a noise.
With such an aggressive posture, Shen Fangli supervised the students of the student union to complete the goal of the rehearsal. A week later,The school festival was successfully held,Against the backdrop of flowers and color bars,The beauty of the Eranises Royal Academy is like a lady who has not been out of the cabinet,People from all walks of life have come to the college to see the style of the collegeγ
The stage play "Fanghua Love Poem", performed by the members of the student union, was scheduled to be officially staged in the college auditorium at 8 p.m., and they were not idle during the time they waited for the drama to arrive. The Xianyin sisters all appeared in front of the coffee shop set up by the students with cat ears on their heads, attracting customers with their soft cat meows; Jia Chao performed magic tricks for people on the spot, and during the performance, he would deliberately show flaws for others to discover in order to play the role of entertaining the scene; Peng Honggui seemed to have evaporated from the world, and no one had seen him since the day the school festival began, so he could only pray that he would arrive on time before the performance began.
The busiest is the student council president Mu Yunxi, who has been directing the students to be busy all morning, facing the students with words like: "Lord, how do you pretend to be a woman?", "I'm looking forward to the growth of the girl form!", and the like, all of them have to be accompanied by a smiling face, which makes people admire the depth of his patience.
Compared to the rest of the student union, Shen Fangli and Liu Yuhan have nothing important to do, they have a lot of fun in the academy, and before the performance starts, Liu Yuhan is nothing, Shen Fangli is so tired that her eyelids fall down, if it weren't for Liu Yuhan to help her, she would have to lie on the ground head-on.
"I said, what are you doing? Mu Yunxi was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Fortunately, it's not your first appearance, hurry up and cheer me up, we can't mess up this performance." β
"Yes...... Be...... Got it. People don't take a nap at noon, and they don't point fingers at me. Shen Fangli yawned, broke free from Liu Yuhan's hand, and took a sober pill from the medicine shelf on the table next to him and took it.
At this time, the beautiful background music sounded, and the auditorium resounded with warm applause from the students, and the students of Class C of the second-year spell department were even more excited.
"A long time ago, there was an ancient country called Xuanlu Country on the Radiant Star, the old king opened the gate of the divine realm because he used the realm gate stone without permission, so he angered the gods, he was cursed that all the princesses he married could not give birth to boys for himself, the old king did not realize that it was his own problem, and ordered the execution of all the princesses who gave birth to girls, and so far he has killed ninety-nine princesses......"
Accompanied by the voice of Teacher Yigong Kite, some dragon characters on the stage began to appear, and they performed very well, which made people have no sense of disobedience, and even Shen Fangli didn't know where her head teacher found these professional actors.
When Mu Yunxi appeared on the stage, the audience burst into exclamations, and the boys even whistled loudly for their long-term women's style.
"Princess Maslilyn, the daughter of the hundredth princess of the old king, after the princess secretly gave birth to a girl, in order to save her life, she was transferred to a boy born to another maid. As time passed, the princess grew up, and after learning of her origins, she was determined to reclaim her country, and during her travels, she met the commoner knight Henros, and the noble knight Ogle, both of whom were deeply in love with the princess......"
With the explanation of Yigong Kite, the participating characters of "Fanghua Love Poetry" appeared one after another, with a low sense of existence, Peng Honggui played a somewhat clumsy new king Jie Kadan, Princess Maisililin, the great magician Bao Lien played by Jia Chao, and the string sisters who seemed relaxed and funny, they also played a pair of funny sisters in the play.
Finally, and the most exciting, is the sword competition between the commoner knight Henross and the noble knight Ogle, which tells the story of Gerkadan escaping to the divine realm in order to defeat the rebel forces of Princess Meslilin. The civilian knight Henross wanted to use the power of the Realm Gate Stone to go to the Divine Realm to stop Tecadan's plot, but Ogle, who was a subordinate of Tekadan, stopped him in the Fanghua Palace, so a sword competition began.
According to the plot, Shen Fangli wants to be the losing side, because if she doesn't lose to Liu Yuhan, there will be no kiss scene later, but in the process of competing swords, she still works very hard, and she fights just like the real thing. In the end, Mu Yunxi stepped forward to block Shen Fangli's fatal blow to Liu Yuhan, Liu Yuhan took the opportunity to stun Shen Fangli, and took Mu Yunxi to escape with the opportunity.
In the next scene, there is no scene where Shen Fangli appears, according to the plot, the civilian knight Henross wants to kiss Princess Mass Lilin goodbye, and then go to the Divine Realm to fight the final battle with Gerkadan. β
Shen Fangli heard Mu Yunxi and Liu Yuhan talking through the curtain.
"Henros, are you really going to leave me, have you decided not to keep your vows again?"
"My dear princess, I want you to be happy more than to fulfill my vows with you, your country needs you to keep the peace, let go of the extravagant hopes of me, just remember that there is a person who has always loved you deeply and lives in your heart. β
After that, Liu Yuhan and Mu Yunxi kissed in front of the audience, although Shen Fangli knew that the angle was misplaced, but there was always a feeling like they were really kissing, and this feeling was like a cork stuck in Shen Fangli's heart, which made her very uncomfortable.
At this time, according to the explanation of the palace kite, the end of the play was announced, Princess Masililin became the new queen of the green country, and the country became more and more prosperous under her governance, but Henross never appeared again, and Maslilin returned to Henros's separate Fanghua Palace, singing the long-lost Fanghua love poem.
Day after day, year after year.
After a long absence, we are back again.
Once together, now goodbye.
The mountain wind is still there, and the singing is getting farther away.
Xi remembers the love, sighing alone.
Mu Yunxi's poems in a soft falsetto voice made Shen Fangli stay alone, and she was stunned for a long time before realizing that this stage play had come to an end with the applause of the students.
