Uh-huh.
After hearing this, everyone's expressions changed. They all turned around and frowned when they saw the person coming.
Why is he here?
An old man came, wearing light silver clothes and one-sided gold-rimmed glasses. Everyone he glanced at was evasive and did not dare to look at him.
Stepping into Earl Austin's castle with steady steps.
Earl Austin tensed up when he saw him. He was indeed the guest he invited, but he didn't give any hope that he would come.
Theresa had a smile on her face, bowed slightly with great respect, and saluted: "Dear Duke Mitchell, I didn't expect you to come."
Duke Mitchell is the most serious and just Duke in Austria and one of the pillars of Austria.
He has served three Grand Dukes and is truly a senior figure.
And he loves music. I didn’t expect Earl Austin to invite him here today.
Duke Mitchell took off his hat and said calmly: "Thank you, Grand Duke Teresa."
After the two exchanged brief greetings, Duke Mitchell ignored Theresa and instead cast his serious gaze on Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng just looked at this serious old man with a slight smile on his face.
But no one expected what happened next.
Duke Mitchell actually took off his hat and bowed seventy-five degrees to Liu Zheng, a man of Long Yan, with the highest respect.
"Hello, nice to meet you. I am Duke Mitchell." Duke Mitchell stood up and stretched out his right hand.
Liu Zheng held them together casually and said lightly: "Liu Sheng."
At this moment, the European nobles couldn't sit still. Duke Mitchell was actually shaking hands with a Dragon Flame man. This was simply a fantasy.
Ahead, Austria and Long Yan are already at war.
He, Duke Mitchell, is still here to show his kindness, what does he mean?
Duke Mitchell glanced around with cold eyes and said indifferently: "Art knows no boundaries. Liu Sheng should have come here to participate in the dance as a Long Yan artist."
Liu Zheng nodded, indeed.
"Then don't say any more. Since Liu Sheng is willing to come, it means that he is now our friend."
Everyone was dumbfounded and had no way to refute.
Mitchell smiled and said calmly: "Liu Sheng, I don't know if you can trust me. If so, I can be the notary public for you and Teresa."
Liu Zheng thought for a moment and realized that Duke Mitchell still had some status in Austria.
Forget it, he just wants to have fun, winning or losing is not important to him.
Teresa also agreed. She looked into Liu Zheng's eyes and said, "I hope you understand that whether Duke Mitchell is a notary or not, I will make a fair decision."
Liu Zheng said it didn't matter.
"Oh, I believe it, I believe it."
When Teresa saw his look, she was immediately furious and gritted her teeth so hard that he didn't believe her at all. It was clearly a look of disbelief.
"Humph." Teresa turned away and sat aside.
Liu Zheng and Theresa were the only ones left on the stage, and now the whole place was quiet.
There was no electricity in this era, so if you wanted to hear the music clearly, you had to get very close.
The scene fell silent for a moment. Everyone was a European aristocrat, so they still had this kind of accomplishment.
Liu Zheng cleared his throat, and Xie Chan took a breath, feeling a little nervous.
Then she felt Liu Zheng standing beside her and whispered to her: "It's okay, these are just a bunch of European bumpkins."
The two of them communicated in Longyan dialect, and their voices were low, so no one could understand what they meant.
Xie Chan covered her mouth and smiled. The European nobles in the audience were not just country bumpkins. They were dressed in trouble and had never even seen Long Yan's guzheng.
After being teased like this by Liu Zheng, Xie Chan really wasn't so nervous anymore.
Xie Chan played the guzheng.
A song "A Laugh in the Sea" started playing.
The people present were obviously fascinated by what he heard. Duke Mitchell closed his eyes and listened carefully.
The sound of the guzheng comes one after another, gradually from near to far, as if it comes from the horizon and then returns to the horizon.
When the sound of guzheng disappeared into the horizon, Liu Zheng's singing came in at the right time.
"The sea is laughing and the tide is rolling across both sides of the Taiwan Strait."
The European nobles' brains suddenly exploded with ambitions, chivalrous tenderness, and countless words stuck in their hearts at this moment.
The song was in the language of Long Yan. They didn't understand it, but they were greatly shocked.
Earl Austin was even more surprised. When he was young, he fought on the battlefield and experienced countless battles.
As an old man, he misses his days on the battlefield very much. Time makes people grow old.
His body was never the same, but he never expected that the song would give it the power to start over.
Immediately after the second sentence.
"Ups and downs, follow the waves to remember the present."
"..."
Earl Austin was in tears. He felt that these two lyrics seemed to be writing about his life.
Teresa understood Chinese, and the shock in her heart was even greater than that of everyone present.
She didn't expect that Liu Sheng could write such touching lyrics. She couldn't find any words in Austrian words to express such lyrics.
Suddenly, she remembered the Chinese she had learned, and she still hadn't understood the meaning of two words in it.
But this time she suddenly understood.
"artistic conception."
This is probably the artistic conception.
Teresa took a deep look at Liu Zheng. He was indeed a great artist, but she couldn't hear any wrong note in the music.
Immediately afterwards, drumbeats and singing began.
"The country smiles, the misty rain is far away."
Teresa finally understood why she had to use that darker note.
This is the state of mind of the characters in the story. The future is uncertain and where will life go.
Theresa took a deep look at Liu Zheng. This time she really recognized Liu Zheng's strength.
Soon the singing came to an end, leaving only the guzheng ensemble.
The European nobles were all breathing heavily, and the way they looked at Liu Zheng at this time was different.
I didn't expect that Liu Sheng could write such a song.
It's amazing. They are all impressed now. This Long Yan man really has two skills and can write such a song.
Awesome, awesome, really awesome.
At this time, I remembered what Duke Mitchell said, art knows no boundaries. This is simply a wise saying.
However, the song should be at the end, but the sound of the guzheng continues.
Liu Sheng seems to have lyrics.
The European nobles were puzzled, and even Duke Mitchell, who knew music very well, felt strange.
According to their understanding of music, when the guzheng played for such a long time, Liu Sheng's song should have been finished.
But not yet, Liu Sheng was still angry.
The guzheng is playing solo in this section, without any weakening.
If we cut into the lyrics at this time, I'm afraid there will be a conflict.
Singing and vocals cannot be heard clearly, destroying the beauty of the music.
They thought that a great artist like Liu Sheng would not understand such things.
As a result, the next second, their ears stood up and their eyes nearly popped out.
