Ink and wash
Everyone's appetite was suddenly ruined by this unknown beauty, Ni Mei.
The previous year, an imperial edict came down, and hundreds of beautiful women were selected to fill the imperial harem. However, Emperor Jing'an only favored Empress Wan exclusively, and as for the others, he only chose a few to taste their freshness for a short while before abandoning them in the harem.
At this time, listening to the unknown Ni Mei Ren who came out of nowhere, Chen Gonggong narrowed his eyes and curled up his fingers, eagerly wanting to know what kind of surprise she would bring next.
The Emperor's mood had clearly improved a lot, and he nodded in response.
Ni Mei Ren immediately raised her eyebrows with joy, ignoring Yu Xi's silent inquiry, and gave a wink to the little palace maid behind her.
After getting her hint, Xia Gong Nv hastily retreated.
In an instant, everyone heard the sound of "gong gong" drums coming from afar.
The gongs and drums sounded three times, then stopped.
A soft, gentle voice floated into the hall, "Upon entering the flower garden, one suddenly feels refreshed and invigorated. Indeed, it's a sunny day with all flowers blooming in unison. The peach blossoms are red, the tea blossoms are white, and the spring light is like a painting. Swallows chirp, orioles sing, and the birdsong is loud and clear..."
Everyone's scalp went numb and their hearts skipped a beat as they opened their eyes to see two heavily made-up actors dressed in theatrical attire, waving their cloud sleeves as they approached.
As he saw these two people, Emperor Jing of An's face gradually sank.
Chen Gong's old face stiffened, unable to stop them in time, and the two voices filled the entire grand hall.
The water clouds rise, rolling up a piece of pink ink. Among them, someone hums and sings: "By the lake and mountain, by the lake and mountain, the clouds are steaming and the sunset is radiant. Outside the carved railing, outside the carved railing, the red and green are intertwined. Stirring up the bees' sorrow and the butterflies' love, it's like a brocade of three lifetimes, not because of dreams or fantasies. A gentle breeze carries the scent to the forest garden...
Baili Ming and others looked at Baili Siqing, who was sitting quietly over there, with deep, disdainful, secretly delighted, mocking, pitiful, and varied gazes that pierced through the narrow air and were all cast on her.
Her heart felt a sudden, icy pain, and she bit her lip hard to prevent herself from making a sound. Every pore on her body seemed to be blocked. Though she appeared to be sitting still, her trembling fingers had already betrayed her emotions.
The two in the middle sang with great effort, and all the princes and princesses, as well as several of the most senior concubines, were hoarse.
The screen is mesmerizing, the script is lingering, and the pure and refined acting skills have an absorbing power, laying bare Bai Li Si Qing's thoughts.
Across from him, Chu Li Yao's body tensed up, and through the blue clothes and pink sleeves, he saw that Bai Li Si Qing's clear and elegant face had suddenly turned pale. At this moment, she was like a hedgehog with its quills removed, shedding her haughty disguise, and he could no longer see the overbearing arrogance of before.
The cup in his hand suddenly slipped, and the wine spilled onto his white sleeve, wetting a large area in an instant.
The people of Jin were suddenly enchanted by the two actors in front of them, and no one noticed the loss of dignity of the two princes.
There is no preaching about life in the lyrics, but there are shocking love and passion that break through worldly conventions. The entanglement and attachment between them also moves them to emotion.
It also stirred up the nostalgia and longing of those concubines who were deeply buried in the harem on ordinary days.
The spacious Xiangfang Hall was very empty, and the movements of the two actors were refined. Every frown and smile was full of charm.
"Then for you, as beautiful as a flower, like flowing water years, is the answer to your idle search everywhere, in the quiet chamber self-pity..."
Long clouds are thrown into the air, soft curves pass by, and ripples rise in circles.
Ba Li Si Qing suddenly flipped over the table in front of him!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Just a few loud noises, the row of tables were affected, and the wine glasses and plates flew out instantly. The white jade stone floor in the hall was smashed with several cracks.
