Geng Zhanghua said disapprovingly: "Why can't we reach the elegant hall? We are all brave warriors, why do we care about this?"
Li Weida got excited and said: "Today is the right time to sing this kind of music. Mr. Huang, please sing a song. We are all ears."
Geng Zhanghua said to the female family members: "Huang Yi is born with a good voice, and the mountains reverberate when he sings. We will never agree if he doesn't sing a song today."
Geng Zhangguang, Li Weida and others followed suit, saying that they had to listen to Huang Yi sing a song today.
My aunt, who kept her secrets to herself, became happy at this time and asked Huang Yi to sing a song.
All right! Just sing!
Huang Yi sang one of the most popular and familiar songs before time travel. Although there was no accompaniment, everyone was shocked as soon as he started singing.
"I once boldly asked the sky why it turned love into clouds and smoke. How come two people who loved each other drifted away in the wind, leaving only a sanctimonious appearance. I once prayed to the sky sincerely..."
Good songs know no national boundaries and can travel through time and space. Geng Yueru, Geng Yueling, Ye Huiling, Xiaojiu, Zuo Fanglian and other women all burst into tears when they heard it.
Geng Zhanghua, Geng Zhangguang, Li Weida, Wang Baishan and other men all sighed after hearing this.
"...How come my two wandering hearts have nowhere to land, and they are speechless and choked. Time has passed. I once buried my heart under the Sansheng Stone, waiting for your heartfelt words of compassion..."
Singing, singing, Huang Yi couldn't help but tears filled his eyes, and he was moved by the scene. At this moment, he thought of his wife and children. He suddenly disappeared. How did his wife survive for more than a year? Can we see him again in this life?
After the song ended, it took three days to wrap up the song. There was no applause, no one spoke, and everyone was just reminiscing.
At this time, a pair of catkins gently pulled Huang Yi's arm, "Brother-in-law, sister wants the lyrics for this song."
Huang Yi, who was brought back to reality from his memories, quickly said: "I'll write it down right now."
Wang Baishan reacted quickly and immediately took out his favorite disposable pen and laid out the kraft paper.
Huang Yi is only so-so when it comes to writing calligraphy with a brush, but he is definitely good at writing calligraphy with a fountain pen. During this time, he can basically make no mistakes when writing traditional Chinese characters and reading books in traditional Chinese characters.
After a while, Geng Yueling gave Geng Yueru the lyrics written by Huang Yi.
Unexpectedly, Huang Yi, a martial artist, could actually write well. Geng Yueru couldn't put it down when he took the lyrics.
Geng Zhangguang asked to read the lyrics in Geng Yueru's hand again and again, and exclaimed:
"I have never heard of this word, but I have a different feeling in my heart after hearing it. If it spreads to the pass and reaches the capital, I am afraid that there will be people singing this song everywhere there is a well."
Geng Zhanghua said: "You should have composed this lyrics and music again, right? Don't tell me that you heard it, such good lyrics and music must be your masterpiece!"
Li Weida understood that Geng Zhanghua was trying to make a name for his future brother-in-law. No matter where the words and music came from or whether they were Huang Yi's works, since it was Huang Yi who sang it first, it should be regarded as Huang Yi's original work.
He said: "I have long heard of Mr. Huang's versatility in both civil and military affairs. Today he has created such good lyrics and music, which makes me even more admired. Mr. Huang, I'll give you a toast, let's do it..."
Well, I don’t even need to show off, they all rush to help me pretend!
Huang Yi couldn't laugh or cry.
At this time, Geng Yueru whispered softly: "Huang..., Prime Minister..., Mr. Huang, can you sing it again? I should be able to compose the tune after listening to it again."
At first she wanted to call her Huang Yi, but she thought it was too rude, so she changed her name to "Ms.-in-law." As soon as she called out a word, she realized it was inappropriate and stopped immediately. It didn't seem right to call her "Master," so she finally called her Mr. Huang.
Huang Yi only knew that the little girl was calling him, but did not hear clearly what she was calling.
He came over and said happily: "You can compose music? That's great, I also have such talents here."
As he spoke, Huang Yi waved to Ye Huiling, Xiaojiu, and Zuo Fanglian, and then said:
"They can also compose music and lyrics, and they will participate in the creation of a drama during this period. Make preparations tomorrow, and I can invite you to watch the drama in the base auditorium the day after tomorrow."
The drama "Magnificent Mountains and Rivers" has been auditioned for more than a dozen times in the auditorium of the base area, with nearly 10,000 viewers.
The people in the base area loved what they heard and put forward many opinions. Creative staff such as Wang Baishan and Ye Huiling are still constantly revising, adding or subtracting, and further improving it.
This drama promotes positive energy, eulogizes the national heroes who fought against the slaves and Tatars, and calls on Han people to never be slaves.
Of course Huang Yi hopes that more people will see it, so he invites everyone to watch the show.
"Can we watch a show here?" Geng Yueling and his aunt suddenly expressed surprise.
Huang Yi said with a smile: "Education and entertainment are very important. We compiled this drama ourselves to expose the brutality of the slaves, to arouse the Han people to fight against the slaves, and to make the Ming Dynasty share the same hatred."
"Brother-in-law is amazing!"
Ye Huiling smiled and said: "Master, our future mistress wants to hear you sing "Three Lives Under the Stone" again! I dare you, master, can I allow you to play the piano and make peace with me?"
This woman is quite talented. She is involved in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is proficient in music and plays the piano well. She performed in public at this time, probably to gain face for Huang Yi.
Huang Yi readily agreed: "Of course it would be nice to have you playing the piano to accompany me!"
With the melancholy sound of the piano, it was even more beautiful when it was sung again, and everyone sighed sadly...
On the third day after Huang Yi came back, Geng Yueling was the happiest because she saw the drama arranged by the base, fell in love with the story, and fell in love with the lyrics in the drama.
Not only Geng Yueling, but also Geng Zhanghua, Geng Zhangguang, Geng Yueru, including Li Weida and his family's stewards and clerks were all fascinated by such an ingenious drama.
Geng Qi, Liu Chuanzong, Yang Shihu and most of the soldiers under their command were also fascinated. They especially liked the singing part where the protagonist traveled over the mountains to ambush Jiannu.
No wonder most people like that part of the libretto. It is the classic part where Huang Yi borrowed the Eight Model Operas "Lin Hai Xue Yuan" where he fights the tiger up the mountain.
You don’t even need to modify the first part, just use it directly.
In Huangmei Opera's classic "Birds in Pairs on the Trees" section, Huang Yi uses it to describe the beautiful life of the protagonist's family before the persecution of the slaves. At that time, the protagonist was newly married...
All in all, the play arranged by the base is a hodgepodge. Huang Yi used more than a dozen verses of classic drama lyrics and popular folk tunes saved on his mobile phone.
The result was very good, even Geng Qi could sing with passion, "Through the forest sea, across the snowfield, soaring into the sky..."
He was the most successful because he had indeed experienced "crossing the forest and sea, crossing the snowfield" to ambush the enemy on the enemy's territory during the ice and snow.
Watching such a good show once is not enough. Geng Yueling asked Huang Yi to act coquettishly and asked her good brother-in-law to make other arrangements. It would be best to watch it three times.
This is absolutely possible. Anyway, we are still absorbing feedback from the audience and constantly revising and improving it. Let’s just rehearse it a few times.
