Chapter 44: Nocturne
Romeo was the first time to visit the imperial capital, Rotiama, the glittering imperial capital is indeed much more magnificent than Verona, the opulent and luxurious Baroque palaces, the new shapes, the distinctive bridges, the beautiful and dreamy square outside the tall parapet walls winding around, protecting the inhabitants of the city. A blue satin-like river runs through the city, illuminated by moonlight, and the sparkling surface of the river resembles a glittering sapphire.
In front of the art palace with pale gold as the base color, there are already many large and small carriages parked, pedestrians coming and going are well-dressed, elegant manners, the palace is magnificent and beautiful, and every place has its own style.
The main palace of the palace is preceded by a wide square with a fountain, a column of water that follows the melody of the music, a long verandah that extends out like a lady's jade arm, a light white verandah covered with grapevines and lily trellises, a refreshing fragrance in the cool night breeze, beautiful green trees like shade, and a beautiful view of the Qingxi fountain everywhere.
The halls of the palace were filled with gold, and the glow of magic gilded everything in a faint gold. Even the waiter at the door was dressed in a black suit, which looked formal and solemn.
However, just as they were about to step into the Golden Hall, the two of them were stopped by the waiter at the same time: "I'm sorry, please show me the invitation, you are not allowed to enter without an invitation." ”
The middle-aged attendant with great eyesight recognized the dazzling golden family badge worn by Benjamin Kant at a glance, and the Roland family was a wealthy family in the Rocasor Empire, one of the top ten families.
And looking at this body shape, it won't be wrong, and he bowed down and apologized: "It turned out to be the noble son of the Marquis of Roland, of course he could enter directly." But this one is really a face-to-face student, and it's a little difficult to do. “
Romeo has neither a badge nor an invitation, and it's certainly not that easy to get in directly.
Benjamin Kant lost his temper and said angrily: "Bastard, can't Young Master Ben's friends also enter?"
"This ······" The middle-aged attendants also fell into a very difficult state, in addition to the performance personnel, the participants in the grand ceremony are the top wealthy families in the imperial capital, if you let dangerous people in, you will lose your job at least, and you will be imprisoned.
Romeo started the round: "I'm not going in, you guys have fun." "Instead of spending time listening to a boring concert, spend time meditating.
Benjamin Kant was really angry, and the bruises on his round fat face squirmed: "Don't let me in, I'll buy this bullshit palace tomorrow, and you watchdogs won't keep any of them." “
"Since it's a friend of Young Master Roland, let it go. The middle-aged chief attendant waved his hand to let him go.
The pale golden palace is extremely beautiful, as if frozen in the most beautiful dusk, the dome up to 100 meters high is painted with epic shocking oil paintings, and the marble reliefs decorated on the inner walls are lifelike, looking holy and elegant.
The five floors are all grandstands for music and theatre performances, which are separated by stained magic glass at intervals to create spaces with great privacy and comfort.
The oval stage that extends from the second floor has a large area and can accommodate more than 100 people performing at the same time.
The Golden Hall is covered with a luxurious cashmere red carpet from the door to the entire inner hall.
The aristocratic lords were dressed in luxurious dresses, silk bow ties, and wigs, and the ladies were decorated with dazzling gems as long as their bare skin was exposed, and the exaggerated whalebone skirt was like a round cake, which was slightly funny. The servants were uniformly dressed, carrying golden trays of delicate snacks and drinks, and weaved through the crowd.
Of course, there are many young handsome and delicate aristocratic ladies. Some of them wore modified magic robes and various magic rings on their hands, while others wore the uniform of the Empire's uniforms, which made them look heroic.
Benjamin Kant was dressed as a high-class aristocrat, and Romeo's clothes were simple, a black shirt and white bottoms. Except for the space ring on his hand, there is really nothing to attract attention.
The aristocratic ladies dressed themselves in long dresses of green, pink, purple and blue, with small lace folding fans in their hands, long flowing hair or unrestrained wavy curls.
A faint evening makeup or a voluptuous smoky makeup sets off the delicate face and becomes more and more charming, and the proud breasts and slender waist attract the attention of men all the time.
Romeo is soon attracted to a girl playing the piano in the corner, she is dressed in a white chiffon bandeau dress, brown hair is coiled into a princess's head, her eyes are arrogant and cold, her temperament is elegant, and her face is delicate and beautiful.
The delicate collarbones and flawless fair skin, the big amber eyes are particularly charming, the high nose bridge, the thin lips, the thin melon seed face and the overly slender figure make men feel particularly pitied, and there is an urge to take her in their arms and care.
She played the piano with great concentration, Romeo could hear that she was playing Chopin's "Nocturne", and beside her stood a tall young officer, tall and sturdy, with quiet and handsome facial features, as if from ancient times, with bright amber eyes like a girl, and her gestures were full of the charm of a mature man.
The gaze is sharp, and the gratuitous end gives people a strong sense of oppression. With such an excellent man guarding, it is an aristocratic young man who has the heart to pursue a girl, and it is inevitable to be ashamed of himself when he sees such a perfect man.
Romeo just watched the girl's play quietly on the sidelines, like admiring a painting. After playing the melody like a song and the poetic lyrical tune, I still feel that the aftermath is endless.
Romeo immediately applauded the girl and said, "Although your interpretation is perfect, it is too sad and melancholy, and some hidden emotions such as excitement and excitement are not expressed, which belongs to the beauty of the jade." “
The girl blinked her warm amber eyes, "Yes, my teacher has said the same. You're supposed to be a music expert, so why don't you teach me? ”
The officer's eyebrows raised upward, revealing a playful expression: "Since you kid is so insightful, you can play it first and listen to it for us." He pulled the girl up and blocked her.
Romeo sat down on the piano bench and began to play it oblivionly, the piano has been modified with a three-stage lever system, the sound is smooth and smooth, and the tone is close to perfection when tuned. With the rudiments of a modern piano, Romeo is more comfortable to play.
The silence and romance of the night, the excitement and the depth have been perfectly intertwined, and the girl can't help but be attracted by the way he plays the piano, and looks at his fingering of the piano.
"Yari Hepburn, don't get too close to this strange boy, let's go up after a while. The officer's voice was hoarse and low.
"Brother, you go up first, let's play it for a while. The girl's enchanting eyes were fixed on Romeo's skilful fingering and pedal movements.
"You try again. ”
For the first time, a man sat next to him and instructed him to play the piano. The girl was a little flustered, and before she could play a few syllables, she played it wrong. Romeo pulled Yali's fair, slender fingers and pressed them to the correct key.
"You····· "The officer's face was pale, and he just wanted to have a seizure, although this kid was dressed a little shabby, but he was quite handsome, and the people who could attend this grand event tonight should not have a bad family background."
For the sake of this kid's piano playing, he can be regarded as having the same interests as his sister, and said in a deep voice: "Then I'll go up first, if this kid dares to do anything to you, my brother will help you get angry." After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.
Romeo and the girl didn't have the big light bulb by their side, the atmosphere became much more relaxed, and even began to play with four hands intimately, Romeo and the girl suddenly had a feeling of seeing each other and hating each other.
"I'll play you a "Nocturne" that you've never heard before, Jay Chou wrote and composed the music, it's very good. ”
"Who is Jay Chou?" the girl frowned.
Romeo starts coughing violently, and you just have to admire it. After speaking, Romeo sang while playing: "Play Chopin's nocturne for you, commemorate my dead love, the sound like the night wind is heartbreaking,
My hand is very light on the keyboard, I am very careful to play Chopin's nocturne for you, to commemorate my dead love, and I am incognito for you, playing the piano in the moonlight, the feeling of your heartbeat is still so warm, close and close, nostalgic for your bright red lip print''
