There were no costumes, no scenery, and even no fiddles, gongs, and drums to add to the fun. However, the two sang gracefully, performed delicately, and danced elegantly.
It perfectly shows that after Du Liniang fell into a dream leisurely, she met Liu Mengmei in front of the Peony Pavilion and fell in love. After she woke up from the dream, she realized that everything she had just dreamed was just a dream. In the end, Du Liniang missed her dream so much.
The person fell into depression and died.
The opera slowly comes to an end. Although the false and true scenes in the play represent other people's love, hate, and resentment, the actors and theatergoers often get too involved in the play and find it difficult to extricate themselves.
Xiao Yulou looked at Hu Qi with burning eyes and said emotionally: "The excerpt is just a part of the whole play. It has no beginning and no ending, but it has a unique incomplete beauty. Unfortunately, people can only see its beauty and magnificence.
, but you can’t see the partings of life and death, the joys and sorrows..."
Hu Qi sighed quietly and said thoughtfully: "Life is like a play, and play is like life. Who doesn't want to leave the most brilliant scene in other people's lives. Although it will be fleeting, it is still extremely gorgeous..."
Xiao Yulou looked deeply at Hu Qi and sighed sadly: "People in the world call us actors. They like to hear us sing, but they look down on us! And once a person enters the elite class, he will never be able to stand up again, so we can only
It’s just that I can express my joys and sorrows in the play!”
Hu Qi smiled faintly and said with gentle words: "How can there be so many happy things in life? What's more, most of the people in the world are common people and stupid people. Unlike Boss Xiao, who is aloof and refined, and has a noble temperament, you naturally don't have to associate with them.
!」
Hearing this, Xiao Yulou's eyes lit up. He grabbed Hu Qi's wrist and said excitedly: "Young Master Hu is indeed Xiao's confidant! I wonder if Young Master will come again?"
Hu Qi smiled and said tactfully: "I'm just passing by here, I won't stay for too long, but Hu promised Boss Xiao that before I leave, I will come and say goodbye to you in person!"
Xiao Yulou, however, refused to give up and asked: "Then where is Mr. Hu going when he leaves Lingzhou?"
Hu Qi thought for a while and then said hesitantly: "Maybe I will go to Shengjing to have a look."
Xiao Yulou raised his hand to him and said with emotion: "Okay, I hope we have another chance to meet in the future. Also, don't call me Boss Xiao, please call me Yulou!"
Hu Qi looked at him blankly, then smiled lightly and nodded.
Xiao Yulou stared at him and warned: "Master Hu, don't wait until you leave to see me. If you have time, you must come to me again. I will be here waiting for you! Waiting day by day...
…”
Hu Qi smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, that's settled."
After saying that, he bowed his hands to him and pushed the door open with the other three people to leave.
Xiao Yulou reluctantly sent the four people out of Fengyang Tower. He stood at the door until the four figures disappeared into the deep night, then he sighed quietly and turned back.
As soon as he lowered his head, a short note was thrust into his hand.
Xiao Yulou hesitantly unfolded the note, and when he saw the graceful word "laugh" on it, his face suddenly darkened.
Immediately, he angrily tore the note into pieces, threw it on the ground, stamped on it several times, spat, and cursed in a low voice: "***! What a shameless ***!"
----------------------------------------
Go over and push aside the sea of scorching flowers. Under a lush peach tree at the end, a man in purple robe and jade belt is sitting next to a guqin, playing with the strings.
Lu Ning suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the man with elegant features and extraordinary talent under the tree. His heart was pounding and his eyes were shining with blazing light.
The sound of the piano gradually stopped, and the man slowly stood up, looked at her with gentle eyes, slowly opened his hand, and said softly: "Ning'er, come here!"
Lu Ning's heart trembled, her throat trembled, and she immediately opened her arms and ran over, threw herself into the man's arms, and allowed him to hold her and spin around in the sea of peach blossoms.
It was that acquainted chest again, the familiar smell, everything, as if it had never happened, and nothing had changed.
She raised her eyes and looked at the man's face as he got closer and closer. She couldn't help but murmured "Your Highness" and slowly closed her eyes...
There was a knock on the door, and Lu Ning was quickly pulled away from her dream. Those gentle eyes suddenly disappeared. Lu Ning shouted "No", but suddenly sat up and woke up immediately.
The knocking on the door sounded for a while and then stopped.
Lu Ning sighed in annoyance and went to open the door with tired steps. As soon as the door opened, he saw Hu Qi's back turning and leaving.
Lu Ning immediately called out to him: "Master Hu, what's wrong with you?"
Hu Qi stopped immediately, turned around slowly, saw the sleepy Lu Ning, and said apologetically: "Sorry, I didn't know you fell asleep so soon, I disturbed you!"
Lu Ning twitched the corners of his lips: "I haven't slept yet, what do you want?"
Hu Qi came over hesitantly and said: "Brother Toto asked Hu to drink wine tonight and admire the moon. Hu knew that Miss Lu was a good drinker, so he wanted to invite her to join us, but she didn't know..."
When he heard that there was wine, Lu Ning's eyes immediately lit up: "Where is Toto?"
Hu Qi pointed to the roof and said with a smile: "Since you want to see the moon, naturally you have to go to a higher place."
Lu Ning pretended to be angry and said, "You didn't call me when you had a drink. It's really not fun!"
After saying that, she tapped her feet lightly, opened her arms, jumped up, and landed lightly on the roof.
"Little deer? Why are you here?" When Toto saw Lu Ning, he immediately smiled and waved to her, and patted the place next to him to signal her to sit down.
Lu Ning sat down with his knees in his arms, took the wine jar that Toto handed over, and took a big sip.
She looked at the bright stars in the sky and sighed: "Don't mention it, the night in Lingzhou is really beautiful! After drinking this wine and looking at the endless night sky, no matter how bad the mood is, it will calm down."
Toto took a sip of wine and wiped his mouth: "Xiaolu, everyone thinks that I, Toto, have no brains, but I'm not stupid! So many things that happened today are related to the caravan. You said, Lingzhou semicolon is
Aren’t you doing something strange behind the back of Guilichi’s old man’s back?”
Lu Ning took a sip of wine and twitched his lips: "You can't take anyone's side of the story on this matter. I don't want to doubt any brother in the gang until the truth is found out."
Toto had an angry look on his face and said angrily: "Today, those people said that our caravan colluded with the government and oppressed the people! If I knew who was ruining the reputation of the caravan, I would definitely kill that guy with my own hands!"
Seeing the hurt expression on Toto's face, Lu Ning patted him on the shoulder, touched the wine jar in his hands, and the two drank heavily.
Lu Ning could very well understand Toto's mood at this time. They were all children adopted by Gui Lichi and had grown up with him. They had deep feelings for the caravan and the old gang leader, and would never allow others to trample on the reputation of the caravan.
.
But Lu Ning was the young leader of the caravan, and she didn't have much influence when she took over. If she didn't care about the facts at this time, and used some rumors to punish her subordinates, at least she would lose the support of the caravan, and at worst it would shake the foundation of the caravan.
She promised her adoptive father that she would never let him down and would make the caravan prosperous. She couldn't make a mistake.
Therefore, no matter how angry she is, she must endure it.
Just like King Yi!
Strange, why do you think of him again?
Lu Ning took several gulps of wine in an attempt to drive him away from her mind. She didn't like this feeling of being distracted.
"Little deer." Toto's expression suddenly darkened and he said solemnly: "Uncle Ye is a good man! He will not betray the old man!"
Lu Ning was slightly startled. She naturally understood what Totuo meant, but she didn't know how to respond.
Ye Guming is a good person?! But can you tell that based on his dullness and his love for Wuyi?
Besides, wouldn't good people do wrong things? She couldn't say for sure.
"Little deer!" Toto took a deep breath and said with determination, "I want to investigate with you! I believe that Uncle Ye is not a bad person. Someone must be doing bad things behind his back!"
Lu Ning looked at his rare serious look and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, now that I have my brother by my side, I feel more at ease. I hope this matter is really what my brother wishes and it was done by someone else."
This was her true words. She really couldn't imagine how she would deal with this adoptive father's old friend if Ye Guming had done something wrong!
"It must be like this!" Toto said firmly again.
For some reason, he had an inexplicable fondness for Ye Guming. Or maybe he didn't believe that the person chosen by Gui Lichi would do something against Gui Lichi's wishes.
The two of them had already drank half a jar of wine, and Hu Qicai climbed up to the roof cautiously. When he sat down next to Lu Ning, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Lu Ning looked at his sweaty look and said with a wry smile: "Master Hu, where have you been? Why did you come up here?"
With that said, he handed him a jar of wine.
Hu Qi got out of the wine jar and said sheepishly: "Sorry, Hu doesn't know martial arts. He can only climb up the wall from the ladder, and then slowly climb up to the roof. It was Brother Tuotuo who brought me up just now..."
After saying that, he quickly took a sip of wine to cover up his nervousness and embarrassment.
Lu Ning touched the wine jar with him and smiled: "If Mr. Hu wants to make a career in the world, for the sake of your safety, you should learn some skills to stay safe!"
Hu Qi looked at her and suddenly smiled: "I wonder if Miss Lu would condescend to give you some advice? Hu is willing to become your teacher!"
Lu Ning was stunned, then smiled: "You want me to be your master? Master Hu, are you serious? My martial arts skills are far inferior to those of my brother, so why don't you want me to be your master?"
Hu Qi glanced at Toto, smiled awkwardly, then leaned over and whispered: "Hu has seen Brother Toto's weapons, and it's really hard to bear! After thinking about it, he still wants to join Miss Lu's disciples.
"
Hearing this, Lu Ning smiled knowingly. After pondering for a while, he said: "Master Hu is a few years older than me, so I can't afford the title of master. Well, if Master Hu is willing to teach me how to play,
Di, then I will teach you some martial arts self-defense moves, so that none of us have to be a disciple of anyone else, and we can all still be friends, how about that?"
"That's very good." Hu Qi looked into her eyes, which were as bright as the stars in the sky, and her lips just curved into the crescent moon.
