I am the prince of the Ming Dynasty, I don't give up

Chapter 40 Only True Love Moves the Heart

As the BGM gradually came to an end, Zhou Shan on the stage swung the long stick around his neck, then interspersed it with a chopping stick, and finally changed hands with the long stick horizontally behind his back, knocking down the Taoist guarding the well with one stick, ending the fight. Although this kind of action would be considered seeking death in actual combat, it was very beautiful!
This action naturally caused another round of applause.

After obtaining the well water, Sun Wukong brought it back to the post station and cured Zhu Bajie and Tang Seng's abdominal pain.

The curtain opened and closed, and the scene returned to the queen's bedroom. The queen stared at the portrait of Tang Monk on the wall, and soon fell asleep on the bed, leaving only her back to the audience.

Just when the audience was puzzled, two people suddenly walked out from behind the curtain. One was the queen, and the other wore a purple gold crown inlaid with jewels, a gold headband with two dragons fighting for a pearl on her eyebrows, and a bright red sleeveless robe embroidered with large peonies, looking noble and luxurious.

Just when everyone was wondering who this person was, he turned around and turned out to be Tang Monk with long hair and dressed like a nobleman.

There was a cry of surprise in the audience, and everyone in the audience stared at this scene in amazement.
"This is the Queen's dream!" a voice sounded among the crowd.

Everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

They then discovered that the two people on the stage were such a perfect match.

The sound of the bamboo flute quietly rang out from the orchestra. This time there were no multiple musicians playing together, but only one musician playing solo. The song was "Meeting My Brother in a Dream".

But the sound of the solo flute can touch everyone's heart more.

The people in the audience looked at the people on the stage with complicated eyes, and their hearts also became complicated.

"What a perfect couple!" Concubine Zhang couldn't help but sigh softly, but then she realized that something was wrong and hurriedly said, "What a sin! What a sin!"

Tang Seng, dressed as a nobleman, took the queen to sit in front of the bronze mirror and do her makeup, looking like a happy married life.
If Tang Seng did this while wearing a monk's robe, everyone might feel guilty, but Tang Seng dressed as a nobleman would not have this problem.

The complicated looks of the people in the audience slowly softened as they watched the two's actions silently.

In the words of later generations, these two people are a perfect match.

Looking at the two people on the stage who were in harmony with each other, Concubine Liu couldn't suppress a smile on her face. This kind of smile had a special term in later generations called "Auntie's smile".

This dreamlike scene made the atmosphere in the venue relaxed, and everyone happily ate the candies handed out by the two people on the stage. There were basically no single people present, so naturally no one would think that the candies were dog food.

This scene made most people in the audience agree to this marriage in their hearts.

After the queen woke up, she asked the imperial teacher to invite Tang Monk to visit the garden.

The queen hinted several times, but Tang Seng always pretended not to understand.

"This Tang Monk is so unromantic. He won't even agree to come down? I'm so anxious," Concubine Zhang said anxiously, fascinated by the scene.

Concubine Zhang expressed the thoughts of most people present.

Seeing how Concubine Zhang looked, Concubine Liu felt a little amused and whispered to comfort her: "Don't worry, sister. Monk Tang is a great monk who is going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."

"Why bother to learn from the sutras? I think it's best for you to stay here!" Concubine Zhang said angrily.

Just as Concubine Liu was about to persuade them again, the band started to move again, and she quickly looked towards the stage.

The same was true for the other people in the audience. By this time they had already understood that the music of this play was extremely exquisite and novel, so they all perked up.

The plaintive and weeping sound of the bamboo flute comes first, followed by the mournful sound of the jade harp.

Under everyone's gaze, the King of the Kingdom of Women slowly spoke:
"Mandarin ducks live together and butterflies fly together, the spring scenery in the garden is intoxicating."

At this time, the Ming Dynasty people in the audience didn't know what would happen, they just thought the tune was very nice.

"I quietly ask the holy monk -" "Is my daughter beautiful? Is my daughter beautiful? -"

This sentence hit everyone directly. Everyone felt a tremor in their heart, and an indescribable feeling surged into their hearts.

A classic is a classic. Even though there is a 500-year gap between now and the time when this song was created, the people who grew up on this land still have a highly consistent perception of beauty.

This line of lyrics is bold yet restrained, sad yet passionate, implicit yet straightforward, and this feeling is particularly suited to the taste of Oriental people.

Although this view of love is a bit too bold in the value system of feudal ethics, the previous foreshadowing is so good, coupled with the national conditions of the Kingdom of Women and the identity of the Queen, the audience who are immersed in it do not feel anything wrong.

What do you say about kingship and wealth

What are the precepts and rules

Just wish forever
Stay close to the one I love -

These two lines of lyrics directly elevate the purpose of this song to a higher level.

The image of the infatuated King of the Kingdom of Women was deeply engraved in the hearts of everyone present.

Everyone put themselves in the shoes of the King of the Kingdom of Women and were moved by this love.

love love love love
愿 今生 常 相随
Until the song ended and the curtain was drawn, everyone was silent.
Concubine Zhang felt as if there was something blocking her chest, making her feel very uncomfortable. She was about to say something, but was interrupted by Concubine Liu beside her.

"That bald monk Tang Monk makes me so mad!" Concubine Liu said angrily.

After hearing this, Concubine Zhang was delighted: Didn’t you just say that he was a great monk? How come he has become a bald monk now?
However, Concubine Liu's curse of "bald donkey" also made Concubine Zhang feel much better.

After scolding, Concubine Liu still felt a little unsatisfied. She looked at Zhu Houxun angrily, but found that Zhu Houxun had already hidden far away.

"Don't leave when you're done!" Concubine Liu said unhappily.

Zhu Houxuan had no choice but to smile and nod.

On the other side, Commander Zhao looked at the curtain for a long time before coming to his senses. He slapped his thigh and said, "This Liu Hao is such a jerk! When this is over, I will definitely kick him twice."

"Help me kick him a couple of times too," Zhan Changshi came back to his senses and said quietly.

"Okay! Shi Changshi, do you need my help to kick him twice? Just four kicks is a bit unsatisfying!"

Jiang, who was beside Commander Zhao, wanted to speak up and plead for Liu Hao, but she immediately felt that it was inappropriate and had to hold it back.

When asked, Shi Changshi did not say anything, but just nodded silently. He was still in shock.

Just now he was still saying that the lyrics were simple and the rhymes were messed up, but this song "Daughter's Love" made him not want to say anything.

The lyrics were just as simple, not even rhyming, but they had an unparalleled impact and went straight to the heart.

This is because the lyrics contain too many literary techniques and are full of emotions!

He suddenly realized that no matter how many writing techniques he had, they were only auxiliary and routine. What could really move people was the true feelings contained in the words.

Since ancient times, routines cannot keep people, only true feelings can move people's hearts.
