159 Han and Tang Dynasties(1/2)

"when!"

The bells are gone, lingering among the blue tiles and white walls.

"Why do you say you have no clothes? You are in the same comrade with your son. Wang Yu set up a army and repaired my spear. He is in the same vengeance as you!"

The sound of calligraphy is heard everywhere, and the aura of sigh echoes in the world.

The horse's hooves were heard, and the square formation of traditional costumes in the Zhou, Han, Jin, Tang, Song, Ming and other dynasties slowly came. The heroes and beauties spread out slowly like long scrolls of history.

Guard of honor, floats, doll phalanxes, armor phalanxes, ritual and music phalanxes, people phalanxes, merchant phalanxes and other phalanxes came one after another, and marched all the way to the square via Langpengchang Street.

The first Xitang Hanfu Culture Week kicked off in the exhibition of the dynasty carnival.

Among all the squares, the float tour is the most eye-catching.

The design of the float is based on the ancient buildings in Xitang as the prototype, combining traditional elements such as "mountain, water, bamboo, carving", and traditional ink painting, and an antique and humanistic atmosphere is coming to the face.

On the float, a tall and heroic warrior was wearing a fierce stern stalker and was furious. He played the role of Wu Zixu, a famous historical figure in Xitang.

This actor is nothing else, it is Poplar Hu.

The float followed the guard of honor and bent the drums on the established route. The isolation belts were drawn on both sides of the road, and the outside was surrounded by melon-eating people. Some were local residents, and more were foreign tourists. They raised their mobile phones and cameras and clicked at the float.

Hu Yang also gives face, sometimes carrying a sword on his shoulders, sometimes crossing his sword on his chest, posing in various middle-second styles that he thinks he is handsome but is actually ashamed.

He was a temporary worker arrested by Nuonuo. He had no plans to arrange personnel on the float, but the county leader said after watching the rehearsal: "Why is there no Wu Zixu? There should be Wu Zixu."

Wu Zixu was a general of the Wu Kingdom in the late Spring and Autumn Period, and Hupo’s general was very outstanding. Xu Yino knew it better than anyone else, so he encouraged Hupo to come on stage.

Patrol the street, and the floats and square arrays line up in front of the square.

The leaders of Jiashan County delivered speeches to the opening ceremony:

"Dear guests, ladies and gentlemen: Hello everyone! "Zuo Zhuan" says: 'China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia; it has the beauty of clothes, so it is called Hua.' Hanfu is a representative of the national appearance and a symbol of the national spirit..."

The county magistrate led to the resignation, and the leaders of Xitang Town immediately came to power.

After the leaders finished speaking, Xu Yinuo made a debut.

As soon as Nuonuo came on stage, rustling voices suddenly sounded around him. Hupomi could hear the amazement, praise, and the sound of the shutter in the crowd.

He looked at the stunning figure without blinking, and his face could not hide his pride.

As the initiator of this event, Xu Yinuo is responsible for presiding over the opening ceremony: a rural drinking ceremony.

The rural drinking ceremony is one of the most representative traditional rituals among the Han rituals. It originated in the Zhou Dynasty and was popular in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Xu Yinuo was not frightened and calmly led hundreds of people from the court to salute together. He had outstanding temperament and strong aura. If he returned to ancient times, he would at least be a princess.

The traditional rural drinking ceremony process is complex and requires a lot of attention. Xu Yinuo performed a simplified version. As the opening ceremony of the cultural festival, you don’t have to stick to the old rules. Noodles do not have to be based on the ancients. This is also Nuonuo’s consistent attitude.

After the opening ceremony, tourists scattered, either watching performances, participating in activities, taking a boat down the river, or walking alone on Yuyu.

More than a dozen children with hair tied their hair sang "The Book of Songs·Xiao Ya·Lu Ming", and their childish voices lingered in the alleys of the ancient town; by the Xutang River, two blessing trees stood on both sides of the river, waiting for those who are destined to tie their wish cards written by themselves; in the corridor, the water pavilion, young boys and girls in ancient costumes were strolling in the Jiangnan water town.

When Hu Yang returned to the B&B, Xu Yinuo had already changed into a moon-white gauze shirt, a long skirt with thread, and a silver-red armor on the outside, and her hair was tied into three strands. This outfit added a bit of mature charm to her.

She urged, "Come and change your clothes!"

Poplar took off the armor of the general and changed into the Ming-made flying fish suit.

On the first day of the opening, many activities were waiting for Xu Yinuo to host. As Princess Nuo’s personal guard, Hu Yang naturally had to follow him like a shadow.

Nono did not hesitate to go out with his hand openly. He met many fans on the way and looked surprised.

"Your boyfriend?" someone asked.

"Yes, my boyfriend!" Xu Yinuo's voice was as light as her steps.

This sounded in the ears of Poplar, and I felt a little secretly happy.

Events related to traditional culture are held everywhere in Xitang Town, and tourists are happy, making them lively but in an orderly manner.

There are traditional rituals such as etiquette exhibitions, lectures and apprenticeships, and apprenticeships, combined with ancient instrumental music with golden sounds and jade sounds, and traditional music and dances with a standing sound, which is full of classical charm.

There are Hanfu showcases, and the on-site arrangement of the open-air water catwalk combines tradition and modern light and shadow. The cloud skirts on the stage, silk clothes, silk beads, mirrors and makeup boxes, and water sleeves are good at dancing, bringing a beautiful visual feast to the audience.

There are also various events, including Hanfu brand competition, dubbing competition, ancient poetry competition, Hanfu image ambassador selection competition, Oriental aesthetic makeup art friendly competition, traditional bow and archery invitation competition, etc., which are all in one go.

Of course, the most lively one is the Han and Tang style market.

After Nuonuo finished his business, the two of them walked across the market together, attracting tourists to turn back frequently.

The market brings together bigwigs from various traditional cultural creation fields, including Hanfu, cultural and creative industries, handicrafts, intangible cultural heritage, peripherals, etc., with a wide range of products, including extraordinary craftsmanship.

Xu Yino pulled the poplar to look around. Soon, the sky gradually darkened, and all the lanterns hung in the market lit up. The dim candlelight covered the street shops. There was no clear feeling of brightness as bright as daytime, but it had a unique artistic conception, with a bit of hazy ancient meaning.

The waters of the Spring and Autumn Period, the towns of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ancient costumes, and the bustling crowds, walking in the market, as if traveling back to the prosperous era of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

Hu Yang looked at the time and said, "It's time to prepare for the performance."

The art performance with the theme of "Hanfu Night" is the highlight of tonight. Xu Yinuo will sing the theme song "Ode to Hanfu" of this Hanfu Cultural Festival at the performance.

In addition, Huyang also invited famous folk bands in China, Jiangnan Dance Troupe, and professional singers to assist. This performance alone is enough to make tourists worth the ticket price.

"I almost forgot if you didn't say it!"

Xu Yinuo was fascinated by the wandering and almost made a mistake in the matter.

She hurried to the performance venue and went to the backstage to change her clothes and put on makeup.

As night falls, stars and moon cover the fields, dazzling light lit up on the square of Xitang. The open-air stage is crowded with people, without seats, just like the ancient courtesan patrols of the streets, crowded together and watched, which was particularly lively.

"Let us applause, please give us the theme song of this Hanfu Culture Festival, "Ode to Hanfu"!"

Xu Yinuo started the show and changed into a new outfit, with cloud skirt and silk skirt, and was as graceful as an immortal.

The familiar prelude sounded, and Hupora could hardly help blurting out:

"The plain embryo outlines the blue and white pen tip to turn light

The peony depicted in the bottle is like your first makeup..."

However, Xu Yinuo spoke and sang unfamiliar lyrics.

Huyang is used to listening to the original version. No matter how many times he listens to the revised version, he always feels a bit inconsistent.

Fortunately, most of the lyrics of the chorus are preserved:

"The sky is blue waiting for mist and rain, and I'm waiting for you

The smoke from cooking stoves rises, thousands of miles across the river..."

Nono's voice is clear and ethereal, with a more classical charm. It is paired with gentle melody and freehand lyrics, and everyone is fascinated by it.

After the song, the audience burst into applause and cheers continued for a long time.

"Thank you! Thank you for coming to this event from afar. I hope you have a good time!"

Xu Yinuo thanked him for stepping down.

All the performers, whether dancers, musicians or singers, were wearing Hanfu, and the shows performed were also of ancient style.

The Hanfu Night Art Performance lasted until 10 o'clock in the evening.

The performance ended perfectly, and the first day's activities were announced to be over, and the tourists gradually dispersed.

Back at the B&B, Xu Yinuo took a simple shower and went to bed and lay down.

I have been busy since early morning and have not stopped until now. Even if I am as energetic as her, I am really exhausted.

Hu Yang is not bad. After all, the initiator is Nuonuo, not him. He just accompanied him and acted as Nuonuo's personal assistant. Even if he was on a float parade in the morning, he just stood on the float and posed for a few positions, which was very relaxed.

He hugged her from behind Nuonuo, put on her daily routine, buried his head in her neck, and sniffed the faint fragrance of the shower gel on her body.

Usually when she lie on the back of her neck and inhale, she would always shrink her neck and smile, exclaim that it was very itchy, and then turn around to swear his itch. But today she didn't react.

Poplar raised his head and saw Nuo Yatou's eyes closed, her curved eyelashes were shaking slightly, and her breathing was even and long.

He was actually asleep.

He leaned over and kissed her little ear, said softly, "Good night", and turned off the lights and went to bed.

"Get up!"

When he woke up, Xu Yinuo had recovered his energy. He brushed and lifted the quilt and pulled up the still sleeping poplar.

Huyang grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto the bed, then pounced on her, using her hands and feet to wrap her around like a sloth.

Xu Yinuo was tightly entangled by him and could not move, so he pouted and blew into his ears.

"Get up quickly, there is activity in the morning!"

“What activity?”

"Hanli Wedding Expo."

"What is that?"

"It is the ancient wedding dress exhibition and wedding ceremony introduction."

“Hey…”

Hu Yang opened her sleepy eyes and looked at her with a smile: "I think so far away, and I want to hold a traditional wedding in the future?"
To be continued...
