"Ding ding...

The bells, drums and other musical instruments beside the stage began to ring, and the melody of the music at the beginning was very light.

... Anli and Mina stared at the curtain curiously, staring straight at them, wanting to know what that treasure is.

With the opening of the curtain and the lighting of the candles, two actors in costumes walked out. Their faces were all transformed into Peking Opera masks, and the accessories on their heads were also extraordinarily gorgeous.

An Li was stunned, and said in astonishment, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with their faces?"

The attention of Mina's enemies is also on their makeup and costumes, which have never been seen before.

"This is Peking opera makeup, the quintessence of my hometown." Liu Feng explained.

An Li and Mina were stunned again, wondering, "What is the quintessence of the country?" Liu Feng thought for a moment, and explained simply, "The origin and invention all come from my hometown, and it is the inherent culture of my hometown."

"Is it the same as the previous Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival?" An Li suddenly realized.

"The deviation is not big, it's all inherent culture." Liu Feng smiled lightly.

Mina watched the people on stage performing, and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, why do they wear Peking Opera makeup on their faces?"

Knowing how many girls would ask this question, Liu Feng had done his homework a long time ago, and explained, "Chinese operas are all stage plays, and when enjoying operas, they are all more than ten or twenty meters away. The actors have to use facial expressions to act, so You have to put on a lot of makeup."

Peking opera makeup is mainly to highlight the contours of facial muscles and facial features, with a thick flesh-colored base color, one is to cover the lines and colors of the face. That is to say, if you only use the primer, you will see the actor's face as a big pie when you stand in the audience, and there will be no sense of picture.

"It turns out that this Beijing opera makeup looks really special. Enli's brown eyes are shining.

Mina nodded heavily, and praised, "I like their headgear, it's very pretty."

"It's good if you like it." Liu Feng smiled lightly. This play has been rehearsed for a long time.

An Li looked at the two actors on the stage, both dressed in red and wearing heavy jewelry, and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, what is the name of this play?"

Liu Feng raised his mouth slightly and explained, "This drama is called Farewell My Concubine.

"Farewell My Concubine?" Mina heard this word for the first time, and it was very unfamiliar. "Farewell My Concubine tells a love story. When two empires were at war, one of them, Xiang Yu, was surrounded by enemy troops in a small area."

Liu Feng paused, collected his words and continued, "At night, Chu Ge rang out from all directions, and Xiang Yu knew that his fate was over, so he told his beloved Yu Ji."

"What's the end? What's the end? Your Majesty, how's it going?" An Li's eyes flickered, and she liked this story very much.

"In the end, Concubine Yu put on a beautiful dress, danced a sword for Xiang Yu at last, and then committed suicide."

An Li yelled, regretting, "Ah! Suicide?"

Mina was fascinated by this, and said bitterly, "What a beautiful love story."

Nicole was also very moved after listening to it again, although she already knew the story.

"Yes, that's why someone arranged this poignant love story into an opera and showed it to others." Liu Feng nodded.

When he heard the story of Farewell My Concubine for the first time on Earth, he was also very moved. Of course, all the stories I explained to the beast-ear girls have been slightly modified to fit into this era.

An Li and Mina watched the opera with different eyes. After learning the background of the opera, they respected it even more.

"Your Majesty, what about their clothes?" Enri asked suspiciously.

Liu Feng 0.8 rubbed Hu Erniang's head, and said, "I made them for the workshop drawings."

"Those makeup looks were all done by Nicole." Mina guessed. "It's all transformed according to His Majesty's tutorial." Nicole smiled softly.

"It's amazing, I think this can be used as a performance at a state banquet." An Li exclaimed, and found that this is more meaningful than a fairy tale stage play.

"That's exactly what I mean." Liu Feng nodded with a smile.

Mina put her head in front of Nicole and said, "When will you teach me how to do Peking Opera makeup?"

The cat-eared lady still doesn't know how to put on makeup, and she relies on Nicole's help every time. Even the fox-eared lady has already learned it.

"Third shift, factory v7). Please customize, please support."

Jenny sorted out the lesson plans on the table and said with a smile, "get out of class is over."

The students all stood up and bowed, "Goodbye, teacher."

Today's sketch training course is over. Since Jenny took up the post, there have been fewer Wei Ya visits.

Most of the time, the elf princess is teaching, and now besides teaching sketches, she also teaches some watercolor painting.

Because there are so many types, the sketch training class is now the most popular registration institution in Chang'an City, followed by the Lizard Girl's dance training class.

Daphne scratched the back of her head and said distressed, "Finally get out of class is over, today's class is so difficult.

In the past few days, Squirrel Girl has been running between two training classes. She is not bad at dancing, she has a soft body and is easy to learn, but she lacks talent in western painting.

"Oh, I can only practice more at night." Daphne sighed, packed up the drawing boards, papers and so on, and walked out of the classroom.

After the sketch class in the morning, I will go to Monica's dance training class in the afternoon.

"Tap.Tap 04...

An hour later, after lunch, Squirrel Girl came to the door of the dance training class.

"Daphne, you're here." Monica said with a smile.

A group of students have just left, and it is time for one-on-one teaching in the afternoon. Everyone has a short period of study time.

Daphne put the drawing board and the like beside her, frowned and said, "Yeah, I just finished the sketching class, it was so difficult."

"Don't be discouraged, learn slowly, you can always learn." Monica encouraged. Daphne nodded, picked up her clothes and went to the lounge to change. Now the dance studio is becoming more and more formal, with special dance clothes.

After the squirrel girl changed her clothes, she danced with the lizard girl, learning a gentle dance.

-After an hour, the squirrel girl sat on the ground, panting, "It's still easy to learn to dance."

"You're learning very quickly, and you'll be able to master a dance in about two classes." Monica said with a smile, and found that Squirrel Girl's talent is very good.

Daphne wiped off the sweat from her forehead, and suggested, "You don't have class in the afternoon anyway, come with me to the Grand Theater."

"Go to the Grand Theater? Watch a play?" Monica asked.

Daphne took out a newspaper from the bag beside her and explained, "You haven't read today's newspaper, have you? Just read it."

"Okay." Monica took the newspaper with a puzzled expression and began to read it. While Lizard Lady was reading the newspaper, Daphne went to the lounge to change back into her clothes.

Seeing Squirrel Girl walk out of the lounge, Monica asked in surprise, "The new stage play, Farewell My Concubine opera?"
