Yuebai: Where are you?

Qianyun: We have arrived a long time ago, and you are the only one missing

Ying'er: Xiaobai, you are the last one again.

Xilan: We are at the door.

Ziyuan: Wait for me, I will pick you up!

Jiang Yuebai thought he would be the first to arrive, but he was the last one.

"I told you to hurry up, look, everyone is waiting for us." Jiang Yuebai looked at the people around him.

"Okay, brother, stop talking, let's go quickly." Chen Jiaxin took Jiang Yuebai's hand and walked forward quickly.

Liyuan Yayuan is not only Xia Ziyuan's home, but also the place where her mother Qin Sijun's troupe performs.

Liyuan Yayuan is a place that is well-known locally, and Qin Sijun, as the inheritor of Chinese opera, is also a well-known figure in the national opera industry.

There are more people present today than usual. Most people came here specially because they heard that Qin Sijun would perform on stage today.

Looking around, almost all the people nearby are middle-aged and elderly, and there are not many young people.

At the gate of the theater, Jiang Yuebai saw Long Zhan and eight others.

In addition to Chen Jiaxin, Song Qingyue, Wang Shiqing and Sister Wanqing also came.

"Xiaobai, you are too slow." Long Zhan saw Jiang Yuebai from a distance and shouted loudly.

"Blame me, blame me." Jiang Yuebai apologized immediately.

"Okay, everyone is here, everyone follow me in." Xia Ziyuan led everyone into the theater and said to the people at the door: "Brother Qiong, these are all my friends."

"Okay, go in." The man named Brother Qiong nodded, indicating that they could enter.

The interior of Liyuan Yayuan is unique. It is a large-scale ancient residence and private garden.

The entire house has three connected buildings, a total of nine entrances, commonly known as "Nine Falls Through the Back", divided into the main fall, the middle fall and the side fall.

Except for the main building which is basically symmetrically arranged along the central axis, the flower hall, living room, study, stage, fish pond, pavilion and other buildings in the other two buildings are mostly garden-style buildings with flexible and free layout.

The waterside pavilions and terraces in Liyuan Yayuan are the essence of the entire building complex.

The stage is built along the water, as light and ethereal as floating on the water.

The other three sides are where the audience sits, divided into two floors.

"Ziyuan, I didn't expect your house to be so big." Su Ying'er said with envy.

Although she and Xia Ziyuan are best friends, she has not come to her home yet.

Before, Xia Ziyuan lived outside by herself, mainly because her high school was too far away from here.

Long Zhan looked around: "When I have money in the future, I will also build such a garden."

Xia Ziyuan took everyone to the attic facing the stage, where the view is wide and the angle is excellent, which is the best place to watch opera.

Jiang Yuebai even noticed that there was a camera shooting at the stage.

"Everyone, please sit here for a while. The show will start in a while." Xia Ziyuan settled everyone down. She also wanted to go backstage to see her mother.

"Ziyuan, what play is this today? Which act is it?" Before the show started, Long Zhan didn't know what the play was called.

Xia Ziyuan looked back and smiled: "Huangmei Opera - The Female Prince Consort."

"Huangmei Opera?" Jiang Yuebai muttered to himself.

The backstage was full of busy figures. The actors were putting on makeup, wearing costumes, and practicing movements. Although people were coming and going, everything was in order.

"Mom."

"Xiao Jin, why are you here? Where is your friend?" Qin Sijun was putting on makeup at this time.

Xia Ziyuan walked behind her mother and held her shoulders: "I have brought them over, so I came to see if there is anything I can do to help."

"I don't have anything to help with here, you can go and accompany your friends, since they are here, you should treat them well."

"I know, Mom, I will comb your hair."

Qin Sijun smiled with relief, and her eyes always stayed on Xia Ziyuan in the mirror, her eyes full of love.

As night fell, the audience gradually increased, and the theater was full.

Everywhere you look, there are audiences looking forward to watching the performance.

Even the attic where they are, it has been filled with enthusiastic audiences.

Just then, Xia Ziyuan came over.

"Ziyuan, you are here."

"It will start soon." Xia Ziyuan sat next to everyone.

With the sound of a gong, the opera officially began.

The woman in costume walked onto the stage.

"That's my mother." Xia Ziyuan introduced to everyone, with joy in her words. She hadn't seen her mother perform on stage for a long time.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the stage. Although she was wearing makeup, she was still very charming.

Xia Ziyuan followed her mother Qin Sijun, opened her red lips and sang slowly: "The spring breeze brings warmth to Xiangyang, and I sit alone in the west window, feeling even more desolate..."

Since she broke up with her mother, she has neverI have sung operas before.

However, today, she seems to have regained the long-lost feeling and enthusiasm.

Jiang Yuebai heard Xia Ziyuan's voice, looked at Qin Sijun on the stage, and was thoughtful.

"The Female Prince Consort" is a legendary opera, adapted from the traditional play "The Double Savior".

It tells the story of Feng Suzhen, who disguised herself as a man to participate in the imperial examination, won the top prize in the imperial examination, and after experiencing many crises, she turned danger into safety, and finally rescued her husband and returned home.

The character of Feng Suzhen is vivid, full of wisdom and courage, which is in sharp contrast to the imprisoned women in the feudal era, and to a certain extent broke free from the shackles of the times.

In ancient times, it was of earth-shattering significance. Under the constraints of feudal ethics, Feng Suzhen disguised herself as a man to enter the examination room, showing the freedom of women and the possibility of achieving great things.

Huangmei Opera is famous for its graceful and lyrical tunes and long-lasting charm. The singing is beautiful and smooth, like flowing clouds and water, and the lingering sound is fascinating.

Qin Sijun's performance won the love of the audience. She played the role of Feng Suzhen vividly, and both her appearance and plot performance were very distinctive.

The stage play of Huangmei Opera "The Female Prince Consort" lasted for more than two hours, and there was no intermission, which was a great test for the actors' physical strength and endurance.

At the same time, it was a great test of the actors' performance skills and professional qualities, and there were certain requirements for the actors' stage experience. They needed to have enough stage performance experience to control the role.

The actors needed to maintain a high degree of emotional investment throughout the repertoire and truly express the emotional changes of the characters, which required a high level of emotional control ability of the actors.

And they needed to remember a lot of lines, actions and stage positions. The long performance was a challenge to the actors' memory.

During the performance of the entire play, the actors need to maintain the continuity of the performance, and there should be no mistakes or interruptions even in a long performance.

The play "The Female Prince Consort" is a comprehensive test for the actors, not only testing the professional skills of the actors, but also testing the psychological quality and teamwork ability of the actors.

It can be said that this is a classic Huangmei Opera that combines artistry, thought and appreciation.

It is also a play that every Huangmei Opera actor dreams of participating in.

Therefore, not every Huangmei Opera actor has the opportunity or conditions to perform "The Female Prince Consort", which requires the actors to have the corresponding skills, talents and opportunities.

But for those actors who are determined to deepen their careers in the field of Huangmei Opera, this play is undoubtedly an extremely attractive play. It is not only a challenge to personal skills, but also a precious opportunity to show themselves and realize their artistic ideals.
