Chapter 26 The Yellow Lady(1/2)
"Will Du Ruo write lyrics temporarily? Will he make shocking words like "Sheng Sheng Slow" and "Mulan Flower Order" like that day?"
The guests were talking about it, but when they mentioned this, they couldn't help but look at Zhao Zongze. Zhao Zongze, who had just shining, became dark again.
"How is it that easy? I heard that he had already filled in the lyrics for Miss Wan'er, so I must have found that the original lyrics were not as good as Mr. Huang, so I temporarily modified them."
"So, if you can make good words, you will be disappointed if you will be able to make a quick job."
Everyone was not optimistic about Du Ruo at this time. This competition was mainly about fighting skills, not literary fights. The lyrics should be sung according to the tune. While paying attention to literary nature, it should also be in line with the context of the tune.
In other words, if the two famous prostitutes were playing "Mulan Flower Order" today, even if Du Ruo wrote the song "If life was just like the first meeting, why would the autumn wind be sad to draw a fan?"
It’s not that it’s not amazing enough, but because “Magnolia Flower Ling” is a cheerful tune, and with this sad lyrics, it is inconsistent with the artistic conception of the tune, just like a sorrowful and joyful lyrics.
Therefore, it is too difficult to make good lyrics in a short time within the limit of the tune.
Here, Du Ruozhang tea and wrote the lyrics at the time of writing, handing it over to Xue Wan'er. She didn't have to memorize it, and she could put the lyrics in front of her when playing. The Song Dynasty had no taboos about this, because musical prostitutes would definitely play musical instruments when singing, and playing musical instruments was originally necessary to read the music score.
The musician was in place and the stage was arranged. Xue Wan'er set up a guzheng in front of her. She originally planned to use a zither, but after Li Meier took it first, she accepted Du Ruo's suggestion and made temporary changes.
The guzheng and Western harp are similar in shape, but have double strings, rich scales, and more pleasant sound quality. Li He of the Tang Dynasty described it as "the phoenix of the jade-breaking phoenix in Kunshan".
"The lyrics and music played by the Immortals are called "Previous Life and Present Life".
After Xue Wan'er finished speaking, she bowed to everyone and prepared to perform.
The guests were focused, Huang Wucheng Zhicai and Li Meier suddenly became a little nervous.
"Dingdong, Dingdong, Dingdong..."
When the prelude of the guzheng sounded in the dance floor, all the guests smiled and nodded. The prelude of the guzheng was a little more ethereal than the prelude played by Li Meier with the guzheng, and it sounded more charming than the guzheng.
Du Ruo nodded with satisfaction. When Master Zuo wrote this song in his previous life, the prelude was the guzheng. If Du Ruo listened to Xue Wan'er's performance first today, he would definitely recommend that she change the guzheng to the guzheng after the end.
Before I could imagine that Li Meier would perform the lyrics and music first, then Xue Wan'er could naturally be upgraded to version 2.0 directly.
"Is it the one glance in my previous life just to meet in this life~"
Xue Wan'er started singing, her voice was gentle, and she responded to the theme of "Past and Present Life" as soon as she opened her mouth. The lyrics were profound and instantly touched the hearts of the guests.
"If you dream in a hurry, you will be sad, and you will feel no complaints when you reach the depths~"
When Xue Wan'er sang this sentence again, the guests showed joy on their faces, which was a look of joy that was greatly satisfied in spirit.
"Thousands of mountains are blocking thousands of miles away, and the fate of this life will continue again in the next life~"
…………
Xue Wan'er sang according to Du Ruoxin's poems. She is worthy of being the first-class brothel in Meizhou. She has the best singing skills. Her songs are full of emotions and their voices are filled with people's hearts. When she sang "I would rather stay together in the world than fly to become an immortal in the sky", her eyes were full of tenderness, as if she was not performing, but singing for her lover alone.
"What a beautiful word!"
The guests below were all radiant, admiring in their hearts, and enjoying joy on their faces.
"This is the real lyrics of this song!"
"The emotions in the lyrics are very consistent with the emotions of the song, and the listeners are filled with their hearts!"
"This is the true word!"
At this moment, the guests thought of this in their hearts. Zhao Zongze on the other side even opened his mouth and sang with Xue Wan'er in a low voice. Even when Xue Wan'er "Ahhhhh~", he grew up and followed her with her mouth.
"Brother Du Ruo, who did you write this word for?" Su Xiaomei leaned close to Du Ruo's ear and asked in a low voice.
Du Ruo pointed her nose: "Isn't it okay to write it for my fiancée?"
Su Xiaomei smiled foolishly.
In fact, "Previous Life and Present Life" is the lyrics that Master Zuo gave to the original song "Bai Suzhen at the Mountain of Qingcheng". It is just because the part that Bai Snake came out of the mountain in the TV series has a great influence, so Bai Snake's lyrics are very famous, so many people mistakenly think that this is the original song.
Du Ruo's previous life, like everyone else, liked "Bai Suzhen at the Mountain of Qingcheng", so he subconsciously wrote it to Xue Wan'er.
But in terms of the fit between the lyrics and the song, of course, "Previous Life and Present Life" is the best.
At this time, Huang Wucheng Zhicai and Li Meier looked ugly on the other side. They were both people with literary attainments, so they naturally heard the difference in the lyrics of the two songs.
Compared with "Previous Life", which both words and sentences reveal deep attachment to men and women, their "Battle of Green Mountains" is simply pale, and it fits the song like a donkey's lips and a horse's mouth.
As beautiful as the song, Xue Wan'er has the advantage of the lyrics, and she is impeccable in her performance. Now that the end of the song is approaching, the winner has actually been decided.
"good!"
After Xue Wan'er sang the song, the guests cheered more enthusiastically than Li Meier just now, and the golden flowers were delivered like snowflakes. Even Zhao Zongze drew 23 golden flowers.
Although Huang Wu and Cheng Zhicai did not give it to him, Xue Wan'er still received more than one hundred golden flowers.
"People, please vote."
The art of fighting in brothels is common, so the manager in the building is familiar with it. At this time, Xue Wan'er thanked her and left the scene. The female manager came to the stage to announce that someone had already given you one red one gold and two cards to the guests, the gold medal represented Xue Wan'er and the red card represented Li Mei'er.
At this time, the first guest began to vote. This was a wealthy businessman. He hesitated for a moment and took the red sign and put it in the tray where the maid collected the tickets.
Over there, Huang Wucheng Zhicai and Li Meier, who were originally gloomy, were cheered up.
But Du Ruo narrowed his eyes. He recognized the rich businessman's surname, Li, and his family was also stolen in the theft case in Meizhou a few days ago.
‘Bastard, labor and capital have solved the case and helped your family get back their money, but you don’t invest in me?’
Du Ruo scolded him in his heart, but when he saw many guests sneering at him, he felt much more at ease.
Sure enough, the second person won the gold medal without hesitation, followed by the third, fourth, and ninth, all of which were voted for Xue Wan'er.
There, Huang Wucheng's talent, Li Meier's face was so humble that she was about to drip.
Next, it was Zhao Zongze's turn.
Everyone's eyes were gathered on Zhao Zongze, and Huang Wucheng Zhicai's face slowed down. Everyone in Meizhou knew that Zhao Zongze and Du Ruo had a holiday, and they all guessed that he would definitely vote for Li Meier in this vote.
"Not bad for his vote."
Du Ruo smiled at Su Xiaomei, and Su Xiaomei looked calm.
"If the little prince voted for Li Meier, he would be afraid that there would be people who would compete for the situation and follow him..." Xue Wan'er beside him said worriedly.
Du Ruo didn't say anything, Zhao Zongze had already taken out the vote he wanted to vote - a red card.
Seeing this, Huang Wucheng Zhicai Li Meier and the other two showed surprises on their faces. They obviously understood what Zhao Zongze’s vote meant.
‘Boy, you deserve a beating!’
At this time, Zhao Zongze held up the red card and did not put it on the plate. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Du Ruo. Du Ruo also raised the corners of his mouth and looked at him, his eyes as lightning.
He has Shangguan protection, so he is not afraid of losing. He can't cheat if he loses. Anyway, everyone here can't beat Shangguan.
If it was really because Zhao Zongze lost Douyi, Du Ruo had to beat him hard, so what about the little prince? In my memory, his irritable cousin from his uncle's family in Bianjing often beat all kinds of little princes, princes, and marquis in Bianjing City.
'snort!'
Zhao Zongze was not weak at all, and his retorted eyes were more power-intensive, but at this moment he suddenly turned his hand around, changed the red card to a gold medal like a trick, and threw it into the tray.
‘I didn’t win the gold medal because of you!’
Du Ruo understood Zhao Zongze's eyes and laughed in his heart, "You kid are pretty upright."
Su Xiaomei Xue Wan'er was surprised, while Huang Wucheng's talented Li Mei'er and the other side had their expressions frozen instantly.
The vote continued, and there was no suspense next time. There were 27 guests around, and 25 of them voted for Xue Wan'er.
"This battle, Miss Wan'er, win!"
After the manager announced the result, the guests had no time to congratulate him, and they all focused their eyes on Huang Wu and Cheng Zhicai, with some gloating on their faces.
Du Ruo also stood up, strode to the middle of the dance floor, and said to Huang Wucheng, "Two, please start your performance!"
The two of them looked extremely ugly, but they did not dare to cheat. They always packaged themselves as well-educated young talents from big families. If they were labeled as unscrupulous, it would be more embarrassing than learning to climb a circle on the dance floor by learning to a dog.
If they had the title of a playboy like Du Ruo, they would naturally dare to play tricks, but they were not. If they were cheating, the positive image they had worked hard to maintain for so many years would be destroyed.
"Brother Cheng..."
"Brother Huang..."
The two looked at each other.
In the past, there were young masters who were drunk and ridiculously learning to bark in brothels. People would forget to laugh for a while.
But at this time they were awake. Although they had already planned to do it, they still couldn't commit themselves.
"Two, you guys, this bet was agreed upon by you personally. Want to break your promise and become fat?"
Du Ruo urged the two of them coldly. After saying that, he looked at Li Meier again and said, "Miss Meier, why are you still in a daze? As a slave, shouldn't you serve Miss Wan'er?"
Li Meier was so beautiful that she looked extremely embarrassed, but she had to get up under the gaze of everyone.
"I'll count down three times!"
Huang Wu and Cheng Zhicai were given an ultimatum by Du Ruo again, and their teeth were gritted in their hearts, and their faces were blue and white.
"etc!"
At this moment, a woman's voice came from behind Li Meier, and then a woman with a green satin-like brocade dress with a beautiful face, a flowing cloud bun, and a golden step from Li Meier's boudoir.
Everyone looked at the woman in one go, most of them looked unfamiliar, but after seeing the woman's appearance and temperament, they were amazed. The woman looked much bigger than Xue Wan'er, but her beauty was no worse than Xue Wan'er. She also had a mature and intellectual temperament all over her body, which made people feel like spring breeze at first sight.
"Miss Huang!"
