honor me as god

Chapter 146
Four Hands!

This is a very advanced form of performance in the piano, played by two people sitting on the same piano.

In the four-hand combination, the rhythm and mood of the two performers need to be perfectly matched, otherwise the appeal and expressiveness will be greatly reduced, and even a lot of discordant noises will appear.

In the previous life, due to the difficulty of four-hand playing, there were not many repertoires, but it also left a very deep impression on music lovers with its beautiful melody, rich expressiveness, unique performance method and artistic charm. .

But in this world, music masters are rare, and there are very few people who can master four-hand playing.

Solandelle has an excellent memory for the music score, and has already memorized the melody of "To a Little Princess", so she will definitely have no problem playing it by herself.

But she still felt a little guilty about playing four-hands with Chino, for fear that she might not perform well and destroy the beauty of the piece.

Kino put his hands on the right side of the piano, his expression and demeanor were full of the elegance of an artist, and he asked softly, "Are you ready?"

Solandelle took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and nodded heavily.

"Three, two, one, go."

The fingers of the two danced on the piano, and the beautiful and ethereal melody floated out slowly.

At the very beginning, because she was not used to playing with four hands, Solandelle played several wrong notes, and she suddenly became nervous. When she got nervous, she played more and more wrong places, and her face flushed with anxiety.

Soon, Kino removed one hand from the keys, played quickly with only his right hand, and gently wrapped his left hand around Solandelle's back and put it on her shoulder, giving her silent encouragement.

The temperature of Kino's palm was like the sun melting the snow, Solandelle's nervousness was quickly dispelled, and she slowly entered the state of playing, perfectly keeping up with Kino's rhythm.

The song "To the Little Princess" does not have too many complex and gorgeous structures. At first listen, it only feels gentle, but if you taste it carefully, you will find that the rondo tune is perfectly connected, clear and warm, and blended with tenderness like water.

In addition, the song itself carries a kind of vague sadness, as if it wants to awaken the deepest affection in people's memory. As long as you close your eyes, you can think of the moonlight as quiet as water, and standing there Smiling girl under the moon.

At this moment, not only the court musicians were fascinated, but many guests were also infected by the melody of "To the Little Princess". Even a rough man like Bolton could not help but close his eyes and nod lightly along with the melody.

With the perfect harmony, the piano sound ended.

Solandelle was still immersed in the aftertaste of the music, she slowly raised her head to look at Kino, her pupils seemed to melt into autumn water, full of longing.

Kino looked at Perseus with a smile, his eyes seemed to ask: Who do you think can play better?
Perseus was left speechless and didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, Kino has a high emotional intelligence. He uses his eyes instead of words, and he has already set a stage for Perseus.

Perseus didn't have to answer anything, he just applauded the two of them and thanked them for their wonderful performance.

In this way, in the melody of "To the Little Princess", the banquet came to an end.

The next day, the old year came to an end, the calendar turned a page, and it came to the 513th year of the Huoyao calendar. The season of returning to snow has also quietly left and entered the season of dew.

The weather at the beginning of the new year is still frosty, but as the temperature slowly rises, the ice and snow will turn into dew and drip, hence the name "Dilu".

In the early morning of the 1st, Chino got up early and was enjoying the breakfast prepared by the palace chef.

The royal family's breakfast was extravagant and exquisite, and the ingredients used were carefully selected and extremely high-quality, but Kino still missed the old honey oat bread even more.

After breakfast, when Chino was walking in the garden, he happened to meet Solandelle and Lorna.

Solandelle jumped in front of Kino, waving her little hands happily: "Happy New Year! Do you want to hang out with us?"

Chino: "What do you mean by going out to play?"

"Get out of the palace and play in the city! On the first day of the new year, I really don't want to be bored at home. I begged my father for a long time before he agreed to let me go." Solandelle kept jumping up and down excitedly, "You too How about coming together?"

Lorna tugged at Solandelle's sleeve and whispered, "I don't even know this person, so don't take him."

Solandelle said with a smile: "It's okay, Chino is my friend, and you are my friend too. You only need to play once to get to know each other!"

Kino smiled slightly: "If you don't mind, you might as well take me with you, I am very interested in life in Wangcheng."

"Never mind, don't mind, let's go!" Solandelle grabbed their hands and ran out happily.

The three of them had just left the huge wall of the royal city when a figure suddenly followed from behind.

Lorna looked back and complained angrily, "Hey, what are you doing here?"

The person who followed was none other than the chief imperial bodyguard, Dinisha. She looked like she was still asleep, and her head nodded: "Hey, the queen is worried about the safety of the ninth princess, so she asked me to follow. Really, I didn't sleep well on the first day of the new year."

Lorna snorted: "No need! With me here, what danger can I encounter? I have won you 69 times, and it is enough for me to protect Solan!"

"All right, all right, are you good enough?" Denisa scratched the back of her head sleepily, and said weakly, "Lorna, let's discuss something."

"You said."

"You young people are playing, you definitely don't want me, a 29-year-old woman, to follow you. Besides, Wangcheng is not dangerous, and it's not going to other provinces. If this is the case, then I'll find a place to sleep, and you can play by yourself But, after returning to the palace, you have to tell Queen Catherine that I will protect you all the way. I don't want to be deducted from my salary."

Not to mention how happy Lorna was: "Deal! That's it!"

"Let's go, see you later." Denisa yawned, turned into a black shadow, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Kino looked speechless: "This person is too casual."

"Hey, no one is following, you can play freely!" Solandelle took Kino with her left hand and Lorna with her right hand, and ran to the neighbors cheering without even taking a carriage.

Wangcheng is very prosperous during the New Year, with a dazzling array of neighborhoods and surprisingly many pedestrians. They may be friends of the same age, laughing and playing in groups; or a happy family, going in and out of various shops for big purchases.

The New Year celebration is also in full swing. The high priest of Wangcheng and professional dancers are wearing Nine Gods masks and are dancing on the lantern car, causing cheers from pedestrians from time to time.

Solandelle pulled the two of them back and forth through the neighborhood. They were all wearing casual clothes today, so they didn't cause a stir, but their exquisite appearance inevitably attracted attention, and they could feel envious eyes from time to time.

Solandelle lived in the royal palace all year round, and now she is like a bird out of the cage, not to mention how happy she is, she ran to a booth, paid for a Sun King mask to put on her face, and jumped in front of the two of them .

With a smile, Kino touched Randall's little head, picked up a death mask, and continued shopping with them after paying.
