Even if the banquet in the palace was noisy and lively, and the crowd was boiling, in Downton's heart, it could not be worth a light laugh and a whisper from Hu Tao and Celesse!

"I suddenly remembered, how can there be no hot pot on a snowy day?"

Downton glanced at Serex, and the girl was indeed looking at the palace, sad.

"What's that?"

Little Walnut jumped down, spread his arms, and ran through the snow in front of the palace gate, leaving a series of footprints.

"Well, it's a delicacy that requires a family to be together!"

Downton crouched down and pinched a snowball and threw it at the walnut.

Syllable!

Hu Tao was shot in the head, she wiped the residual snow on her cheek with her sleeve, and launched a counterattack, "Sister Celes, come on, let's go up together, defeat him!"

"Thank you!"

Watching his sister run on the snow, Rosicky thanked Downton from the bottom of his heart, knowing that he had made the hot pot for himself and his sister.

"That's what an outperformance!"

Downton fought back, and a snowball smashed into Prince Snowman's face, and then ran away without looking back.

With Downton's current power, whatever he wants, as long as he is instructed, in less than half an hour, the servants will be ready.

The cold winter was indeed the best day for shabu-shabu, and Downton, worried that it would not be lively, pulled Madeleine and Juliet to the table.

"Eat slowly, be careful of burning!"

Watching the juice splashed from the walnut's food, Downton felt that no matter how rare and delicious the food in the palace was, it was not as good as these simple dinners.

In this relaxed and lively atmosphere, Downton, who has always been self-disciplined, got drunk for the first time, and of course, the culprit was Madeleine.

"A man can't drink, but he's at a loss!" the head of the Royal Sister almost pulled Downton's collar and poured wine into his mouth. "You want to get a girl drunk, but you end up falling before others, isn't there a shame in losing it?

Madeleine's energy always seemed to be bursting, and early the next morning, she kicked open the door of Downton's room, and pulled him out of the bed before he woke up.

"What for?"

Hangover not waking up. It made Downton's head hurt a little, and he couldn't help frowning, as for the cold wind blowing in from outside the door, with his physique, he didn't feel it at all.

"Rehearsing the opera, if you don't want to be embarrassed and scolded as an indigenous duke for a lifetime, give me a thousand percent of your efforts!"

Madeleine grabbed the clothes at the head of the bed and threw them on Downton. "Get it on!"

"I'm only in charge of the script, as for how to act, it's your business, and I'm not an actor?"

For opera, Downton is not proficient, but he still knows a lot more than ordinary people, not counting the classic plays he has seen in his dreams, but the real world. Following a Homer who likes literature and art, Downton's literary literacy will not be low.

"This time I'm going to get better. So you have to be there and see if there's anything you can improve, after all, the script is yours!"

wrote several blockbuster scripts in succession, which made Madeleine think that Downton was a natural screenwriter, after all, literature is such a thing. It is very necessary to be talented, no matter how you hone it the day after tomorrow, it is inevitable that it will be full of craftsmanship.

"How's the morning? Let me sleep a little longer!"

Downton didn't want to go, the first hangover made him not even want to open his eyes.

"No!" Madeleine threatened. "Don't force me to use a trick?"

"Okay!"

Seeing that the head of the royal sister was not pouring cold water, but preparing to tear down the roof, Downton was frightened and quickly jumped up and got dressed.

In order to compete with the Black Swan Opera Company, Madeleine sent Pippen to rent a large warehouse overnight, which could be kept secret as long as the door was closed, and the place was large enough to be isolated into several areas, and practice at the same time without affecting each other.

"If you don't start work for a week, won't it affect your reputation?"

Downton was very worried, the iron should be struck while it was hot, and the toffee was now on the rise of his career, and it would be too much to lose if he suddenly stopped for a week.

"As long as you overturn the black swan, are you afraid that you will not be famous?"

Madeleine knocked on the door, and the silly Pippen immediately answered, pulling the door open, and the piercing sound of singing poured into her ears.

"Walnut?"

Seeing that little Lori was taught by a woman to describe her lines in an operatic tone, Downton almost exploded his eyeballs, when did the little guy work so hard?

"She pulled me to ask for special training after eating yesterday, and it can be seen that she doesn't want to embarrass you!" Madeleine gave Downton a blank look, "You're not Lolicon, are you?"

"Absolutely not!"

Downton hastened to clarify.

"Hey, it's strange to believe you, it's not Lolicon, how did you write "This Killer Is Not Too Cold"?" Madeleine muttered.

"Big brother!"

Seeing Downton, Walnut was embarrassed.

Pop, Madeleine clapped her hands, and after attracting everyone's attention, she spoke, "Okay, the big screenwriter has arrived, everyone is motivated, and try it out!"

Pippen was very eye-catching, and quickly moved two chairs over.

With Madeleine's voice, a middle-aged man holding a basin of 'Silver Queen' walked into the venue, he was the pillar of Toffee, twenty-eight years old, and with a little makeup, he could meet the requirements of the male protagonist Leon.

Downton's right hand touched his chin and quietly admired, the actors all showed 200% of their strength, but his brow was wrinkled deeper and deeper.

"How about it? I originally put a lot of emphasis on it, but I didn't expect "Notre Dame de Paris" to be a hit, so I didn't use it, and fortunately, otherwise we would have lost if we made a new play!"

Madeleine snickered, like a fox who had managed to steal grapes from the estate, which was why she was willing to bet.

The opera lasted three hours before it ended, and Walnut probably wanted to prove himself in front of Downton too much, but made too many mistakes.

At the end of the opera, little Lori went directly backstage.

"How? Actually, Hu Tao's previous table is very good!"

Madeleine was a little distracted, because she noticed that Downton was frowning frequently, which gave her a very bad feeling.

"What do you think, Homer?"

With Downton's current status, even if it is violent ~ Luhomea. Don't worry about it being snatched away, not to mention that the head of the royal sister is still her own person.

"The appeal is not enough, to put it bluntly, these people's acting skills are not good!"

Homer has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, seen operas from all eras, and has a deep study of literature and art. So its opinion hit the nail on the head.

"Homer!"

Downton blamed Homer for being too direct and hurtful.

"Hey, I know that, actually!"

Madeleine sighed.

"Why don't you change the troupe, dig up some pillars from those grand opera troupes, and put these gold coins in your pocket, right?"

Homer was puzzled, and noticed that the toffees that Madeleine ate were all high-end products from the Alps, the price of one. It's enough for a family of four for a year.

"We're all like-minded people who have dedicated our lives to opera, we have our own philosophy, and if we make Toffee the number one opera company in the world by poaching, what's the point?"

In a way, Madeleine is stubborn, but stubborn and cute.

"They are enthusiastic and very committed. But these can't make up for the acting skills, and it's okay to defeat the second-rate opera troupe. But what you want to challenge now is the top three Black Swan Opera Troupe in the Saint Laurent Empire, and if you pull out one of the five pillars of the family, it is worth as much as one of your opera troupes, no, it's a few!"

As a literary youth. Homer understands Madeleine, but if she continues like this, she will definitely lose.

"Our passion for opera is no less than theirs!"

The head of the royal sister argued.

"I agree, but this favor will not lead to victory!" Homer poured cold water, "You don't think that the Black Swan didn't rehearse the opera, do you?"

Madeleine's face was gloomy. A big theater company like this, in order to be prepared and not be eliminated by the market, began to prepare new operas as early as when the popular repertoire was staged, so it is a certain that the black swan has a new opera.

"The plot of "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" is great, but these actors can't deduce its essence at all!"

Homer's construction is very simple, substitution, otherwise the outcome is really difficult to predict.

"But where am I going to pick someone now?"

Madeleine rolled her eyes, she didn't want to change people at all, these were people who had visions and ideals for opera, her friends and subordinates, and she wouldn't fire them as long as they didn't resign voluntarily.

"What you're doing now is burying the toffee with your own hands!"

Homer's voice couldn't help but get louder.

"No one can be sure of the consequences before the competition, I think they will definitely be able to defeat the black swan!" Madeleine retorted without showing weakness, "They are no worse than anyone else!"

Seeing the head of the regiment arguing with a magic book for everyone, the members of the group were moved, and in the end, an old and serious person was pushed out.

"Commander, let's change people, in fact, what this lord said is right, if this continues, we will lose!"

The members nodded, in fact, the head of the regiment also spent a lot of money to buy high-quality scripts, why didn't they become popular? It's not that everyone's acting skills are not good, but the head of the regiment stubbornly does not change the members!

"Commander, we don't want to drag you down anymore!"

After the old members finished speaking, they bowed to Madeleine, and then walked out of the warehouse, and then the members looked at each other, as if agreed, bowed one by one, and left one after another.

"Everybody......"

Madeleine reached for it, but she didn't know what to say, she knew that Homer's quarrel had opened up something that no one wanted to touch for years.

"Wait, everyone, that's not the reason!"

Downton suddenly spoke, startling everyone.

"Hey, it's your honor, don't be sympathetic!"

Homer warns.

"I know!" Downton nodded, looking at Madeleine, "Opera is contagious, no matter how strong, it is nothing more than that, have you ever thought of a new form of performance?"

"What is the new form of performance? drama and opera?"

I have to say that Madeleine really knows the art well, and even knows the dramas and operas from the Oriental countries very well, and can even sing a few words. (To be continued......)
