Mo Qingcheng

Chapter 42 Cast

Hearing that His Highness the Second Highness had made such an important decision, the class leader was both surprised and delighted, and asked in disbelief: "Here, Second Highness, are you serious? You guys are humble, so I really don't dare to stand up to the Second Highness... ..."

Actors have always had a humble status, not to mention not being looked down upon by the royal family and nobles, even ordinary traffickers and pawns would sneer at them and roll their eyes at them.It is already a great honor to be favored by the royal family and be summoned to sing in the palace; now the young and handsome second crown prince is willing to go against all opinions and make an exception to keep a certain woman he likes by his side to serve him.This is simply a good thing that fell from the sky, and it is a fortune that even dared not dream of. It is no wonder that the class leader asked again and again.

Hua Moyi nodded slightly but unquestionably.

"That's great, my little one, I'll let them prepare now, and all of them will come on stage and sing a section for His Highness the Second Highness..."

The head teacher was so excited that his voice began to tremble, as if he was afraid of Hua Moyi's repentance, he turned around and ran away in a hurry.Hua Qianqiu opened her mouth to say something, but seeing Hua Moyi's face paler than before, she still couldn't speak.

Second brother... If doing this can make you feel better, even if eldest brother and father object, Qianqiu will stand by your side.

Neither of them spoke. Inside the Yuanwei Xiaozhu, there was a moment of silence, only the gurgling of Longjing tea simmering on the red stove.

************

The gong was struck, and on the stage located in the middle of Yuanwei Xiaozhu Garden, several classic scenes officially started.

As expected of a first-class opera troupe selected to perform in the palace, these dan roles who came to the stage in sequence all looked upright, and their singing voices were melodious and clear; their sleeves were long, their eyes and brows were full of anger, and they had a graceful figure with every gesture. Foot, everything is style.Those familiar tunes, since they looked back and sang softly with smiles, added an indescribable romantic meaning out of thin air.The palace people stood in twos and threes on the promenade and stopped to listen, or surrounded by flowers, pushing each other and laughing, and occasionally one or two court ladies hummed a few words unconsciously, and everyone listened very engrossed. .

Under the arrangement and instruction of the theater troupe owner, the later Shengjiao and Jingjiao also appeared on the stage one by one, coordinating with today's protagonists and girls, and performing some scenes that can set off the beauty of the Danjiao.After singing an excerpt, there was loud applause.Although he didn't dare to go too far in front of His Highness the Second Highness and the Fifth Princess, the wonderful performance of the troupe obviously made everyone's emotions reach the peak, and the atmosphere was as enthusiastic as a Huayao festival.

While paying attention to the singing voices and moving positions of the dan roles on the stage, the class master kept looking at the expression of His Highness the Second Highness, hoping to see some clues from His Highness's few words or body movements.He saw Hua Moyi and Hua Qianqiu sitting in the corridor directly opposite the stage, holding white jade teacups in their hands, bringing them to their lips to sip lightly.The two people with similar looks also had very similar demeanors, but when Hua Moyi lowered her head to drink tea, even though she was a little absent-minded, she would still politely raise her head to look at each other when the roles were changing.

But the Second Highness just looked at it so lightly, there was no sudden surprise in the purple eyes, and the whole person looked irrelevant, and he never said a word.

The class leader was a little anxious, seeing that the ten most outstanding girls were about to finish their performances, but the Second Highness remained calm. Could it be that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to climb the rich and powerful is just a waste of money? Can't slip away?

After the last dan character sang, he spun a few times on the stage softly and lightly, saluted Hua Moyi and Hua Qianqiu in the audience, and then showed an expression of disappointment that could not be concealed like the previous nine dan characters , step down from the stage.

The last hope has been shattered, and the leader's inner feelings have fallen from bliss to infinity, very depressed.

Hua Moyi's eyes moved, and to him, it meant: It's over?

"This..." The class leader was really unwilling to miss this opportunity, but he had no choice but to bow down and respond: "Return to Second Highness, end...──"

However, before he finished his words, he heard the sound of gongs and drums. To everyone's surprise, there was a new female role on the stage again.

The troupe master and Hua Moyi looked up at the stage at the same time, and saw a masked woman in a brocade-red long gauze who leaped onto the stage lightly at some point, her movements were stretched and graceful, and she danced with two hands like flowing clouds and flowing water. The soft sword with a clear handle slid into the center of the stage.

She didn't sing aloud, and it wasn't like the previous dan roles who were all dressed in thin gowns, deliberately trying to show their figure in front of the Second Highness; In her attire, she can only vaguely see that she has a well-proportioned and slender figure.The long veil hangs down to the collarbone, covering a face so that people can't see clearly, only revealing a pair of clear black and white eyes, but with the rapid turning and fluttering movements, it is extremely difficult to capture the charm in those eyes.The hands holding the sword are steady, and the sword dance is plain but powerful. On the stage, the figure is stretched and vigorous, graceful and calm like a swan swimming on the lake.

Perhaps because of the graceful and smooth movements of this woman who appeared out of the blue, Hua Moyi's original casual expression changed a little bit, her gaze couldn't help being drawn, and her demon purple pupils half-narrowed.

The head of the class stared dumbfounded at this woman who had never met before attracting the attention of everyone in the audience. Even the female roles who had already arrived backstage opened their mouths slightly, showing expressions of admiration and admiration.

"Is this a newcomer to our class?" The old head teacher couldn't believe his memory. In order to prevent mistakes, he secretly whispered to the deputy head teacher.

The deputy class leader nodded without hesitation: "Yes, class leader, you forgot, this is a lonely girl we took in at the gate of Wangcheng. Today, the Second Highness is happy, so I just want her to show off on stage. It doesn't matter."

"We have taken in such a girl who can dance swords at the gate of Wangcheng?" The old class leader looked at him suspiciously, trying to dig out in his memory, but he couldn't think of such a thing.The deputy class leader quietly squeezed the expensive cloak crane grass hidden in his sleeve, and reaffirmed his tone again: "That's right. I supervised this matter. I only informed you at the time, the class leader. You haven't seen it before." It's natural to not remember her face for a while."

The class leader frowned and looked at him for a while. Although he still had doubts in his heart, he looked at Hua Moyi again and found that there was a trace of curiosity in Hua Moyi's lazy eyes. Clearly already interested in the veiled girl.

Forget it, as long as the Second Highness is happy, don't ask so much about where she came from.His Royal Highness Su Wen is generous and never stingy, so he must be able to get a big reward today.

Thinking of this, the old class leader no longer struggled, and signaled to the gong master with a smile on his face, to play this magnificent sword dance longer, and let the Second Highness carefully examine the girl from head to toe.

That girl is also up to the mark, an ordinary frail girl jumps with a sword for a quarter of an hour, sweating profusely and gasping for breath, but she follows the sudden and rapid gongs without any effort or fatigue, her steps are calm and normal, and she is full of heroism. people.At the end of the song, even the old class leader who had experienced countless storms secretly praised him in his heart.

It's just that she didn't say a word, didn't make a sound, it's really a pity.If you can dance and sing at the same time, it must be even more stunning and unforgettable.

After the masked woman danced, she was not in a hurry to get off the stage, her swords were hanging down in her palms, her beautiful eyes looked towards Hua Moyi and Hua Qianqiu on the other side of the stage.

Hua Moyi met her eyes and burst out laughing.

"This girl is quite courageous, skillful, and very confident." Hua Moyi said to the old class leader, "I have decided to be her. You let her come in front of me."
