"The bright moon shines on the west wing, the beautiful woman Yingying Hongniang in the 28th. Three invites Zhang Sheng to the banquet, and no one jumps on the flower wall." After looking at the music score again, He Xiangdong raised his head in surprise and said, "Is this the West wing that is not idle?"

Zhang Wenhai nodded and said excitedly: "Yes, this is the song of the Big West Chamber, the ten-not-idle lotus falling."

The West Chamber tells the story of scholar Zhang Junrui and prime minister’s daughter Cui Yingying. It comes from the Yuan Dynasty drama writer Wang Shifu. It has been widely sung since the Yuan Dynasty.

The story is very brief. Zhang Junrui and Cui Yingying met with Pu Shu Temple. Zhang Junrui wisely saved Yingying. The two secretly agreed to live their lives, but were opposed by Cui Yingying's mother's wife, and the two were forced to become brother and sister.

Later, the two often had private meetings. After tortured the maid, the old lady only found this point. However, due to the fact that Zhang Junrui was asked to obtain fame and honor before marrying Yingying, so there was a Shili Pavilion to bid farewell.

In the end, Zhang Junrui returned to the top scorer in the exam and married Yingying. As for Zheng Huan, who was acting as a messenger in the story, it would be better if he didn't mention it.

The West Chamber was originally a script written for the New Year's Day drama. As other folk operas matured in later generations, they also had their own art forms to interpret the West Chamber.

Kunqu Opera, Yue Opera, Peking Opera, Beijing Opera, and Northeast Errenzhuan have all adapted and sang this story. Traditional folk art also sang the West Chamber, but because of this story, there are not many songs that can be used, there are songs from the West Chamber in the Ten Buxian Lotus, but too many have been lost.

Even the art of "Ten Buyi Lotus Falling" is about to be lost, let alone some of the songs.

Fan Wenquan and Zhang Wenhai have been sorting out for several months before, and they have been working for several nights during this period. The two old men are almost exhausted, but they are extremely excited. They ask, "Dongzi, please sing us a few words of the West Chamber that is not idle first. We have changed this word. How do you sing and see how it tastes?"

Zhang Wenhai's eyes were red, but he also looked at Hiji. If it were Liu Huoer alone, He Xiangdong would definitely crush all of them.

He Xiangdong was also a little excited. He knew the most about the songs of ten not idle. Although there is no music for gongs, drums and cymbals, his eyes were in his heart. After a little pause, he opened his mouth and sang: "The bright moon shines on the west wing, the beautiful woman Yingying Hongniang in the 28th. The third person asked Zhang Sheng to come to the banquet, and no one jumped on the flower wall. The fifth lady knew the letter, and the sixth board tortured Yingying in questioning the little matchmaker."

Zhang Wenhai and Fan Wenquan showed extremely enjoyable expressions at the same time, and even their eyes could not hide their joy. No matter how carefully prepared the songs were not in the hands of good singers, they would only be the pearls covered with dust. He Xiangdong would definitely sing the taste.

The big west wing, which is ten not idle, is on the verge of losing. There is still a big west wing inside the Errenzhuan. It is still performing in the Northeast. The lyrics at the beginning are similar, but the tunes are different.

After singing this section, He Xiangdong continued to read. Next is the song of the Four Happinesses. The original lyrics in the Four Happinesses were Fulu and Shouxi. The current lyrics have not changed, but the lyrics have become the West Chamber.

"My sister embroidered incense bags in the room and embroidered all kinds of people in the west wing. The embroidered on the side is Miss Cui, and the embroidered on the side is Zhang Xiucai. Doudou rose and choked on the beans." He Xiangdong did not continue singing, but sang a sentence with Sixi, then raised his head and said in surprise: "Okay, it's great. It's very appropriate to sing the West wing with Sixi's songs."

Zhang Wenhai also nodded, and Lao Huai comforted him: "Yes, when the old gentlemen performed crosstalk conferences, they had to sing the ten-not-free lotus fall at the beginning. Now no one sings it anymore. Even the art of singing the ten-not-free lotus fall is about to be lost."

Fan Wenquan took the conversation and said, "So, Lao Zhang and I think that since we have resumed the traditional crosstalk performance, we should add the Liuer. So we reorganized the West Chamber inside the Ten Buyi Lotus Fall, which is also a lot of fun to sing."

He Xiangdong did not answer immediately, but looked down very seriously. Some of the songs in the Lotus Fall in the Ten Buxian Lotus are more suitable for singing the West Chamber, just like the next slap, the stand-up song, and the Taiping Nian are very suitable. Zhang Wenhai and Fan Wenquan also sorted out the West Chamber of this song. The Taiping Nian mentioned here is the songs in the Lotus Fall, not the songs in the single string.

He Xiangdong finished reading all the lyrics and music on the paper and sang them silently in his heart. He really admired these two old men. They were both old and hardworking to sort out the West Chamber where the lotus flowers fell. It was amazing.

He Xiangdong put the pile of paper in his hands and sincerely admired the two old men and said, "You two are suffering from this big west wing. In addition, the Shili Pavilion inside the lotus falls also sings the big west wing. Can this be added?"

Zhang Wenhai frowned and asked back: "Do you do?"

He Xiangdong nodded and said, "I know, I have learned the Shili Pavilion where the lotus falls. In the past, artists first sang Su Da's tune in the opening ceremony, and the fifth update of Shili Pavilion, and then sang the old lady in anger and scolded the little matchmaker with evil words. It looked like a dozen sentences. Further down there are the airtory songs and the Taiping Nian."

Hearing this, Fan Wenquan nodded and said, "Okay, you can write down all the lyrics and scores at that time. Let's see if you can add them. The West Chamber is a complete story. After the song is paired with the songs, there should be a complete context."

Zhang Wenhai shook his head and rejected: "I don't think so. Let's take a look first. Everyone knows the story of the West Chamber. It is widely circulated, and there are many operas and folk arts that have this passage, but there are really not many musical cards that are really suitable in traditional folk art. It would be a bit difficult to sing the story."

"Also, our performances are also limited. If we spend too long on Menliu'er, what should we do if the crosstalk behind us should be made into a kind of singing that can be done or sing together."

He Xiangdong and Fan Wenquan thought for a while, nodded, and agreed with Zhang Wenhai's statement.

After a pause, He Xiangdong said again: "In fact, there are some songs suitable for singing the West Chamber, but they are not songs inside the Ten Buyi Lotus Flowers."

After Zhang Wenhai and Fan Wenquan looked at each other, Zhang Wenhai immediately looked at He Xiangdong and said, "It's okay, even if you say that we are not that rigid, we have made the West Chamber to be used as the door. The more perfect the better, the better. Maybe this thing can become a repertoire of our Xiangwen Society."

He Xiangdong also smiled: "That's great. What do you two look at the flower table for the song?" To be continued.
