Chapter 543 The Glorious Chapter of the Han Dynasty
After the Legalist crosstalk performance, the audience enjoyed the Yin-Yang School's large-scale fantasy light and shadow show, "Yin-Yang Fantasy Dream."
Chen Ajiao was the first to appear, wielding a flaming whip on stage. A fiery red snake ignited the darkness, instantly transporting everyone into a magnificent world of illusion.
Compared to the natural and fluid style of Taoism, the performances of the Yin-Yang School are more elaborate, extravagant, and eye-catching.
The blazing sun, the palace made of vines, the fluttering petals and icicles—the magnificent beauty built from opulent splendor is captivating to all.
This also made everyone understand why His Highness the Crown Prince said, "I won't watch the Spring Festival Gala without Yin Yang Jia."
After all, people yearn for beauty. The beauty of the Yin-Yang School carries a fleeting, momentary splendor, as if its purpose is to bloom in this very moment.
It resembles the blood-red red spider lilies on the banks of the River of Oblivion, carrying a sense of life and death intertwined, its splendor revealing a deathly stillness, making it not only visible but also unforgettable.
Next, the farmers appeared, their powerful folk songs accompanied by their unique martial arts. Their moves were fierce and powerful, showing their boldness, resilience, and vitality.
It evokes the purest love for the land and the joy of harvest, and is a program that touches the hearts of people all over the Han Dynasty.
The famous writer's "Sophistry and Debate" is a humorous and witty skit featuring multiple people. It focuses on how to win every argument, simulating classic debate scenes by famous writers. It is an eye-opening experience, making people want to take out their notebooks and write down these tips for arguing.
Even the Master Father Yan in the audience couldn't help but sigh repeatedly in Wei Zhuang's ear: "You should learn from him, learn from him, don't be like His Highness the Crown Prince, always wearing a villain's face, affecting our academy's enrollment!"
Wei Zhuang was speechless, then stiffly forced a smile: "Is that so?"
Gai Nie couldn't stand it, so he covered his face and commented indifferently, "It would be better if you didn't laugh."
The military strategist's performance followed, led by Wei Qing.
This is a very special program. Not only at the venue, but also at branch venues throughout the Han Dynasty, students from the Military Academy lead the soldiers of the Han Dynasty to demonstrate their uniform martial arts to the accompaniment of a majestic war song.
Even though they were far apart, on the screen, every venue and every soldier on stage was full of energy and moved with crisp, clean movements. There wasn't the slightest error in their movements, and everyone exuded the cohesion of the Han army.
A hundred men form an army, a thousand men form an army, and ten thousand men form an army!
No matter where they are, they are all soldiers of the Han Dynasty, and they are all willing to charge into battle for the Han Dynasty!
A deep male voice boomed from the depths of the screen, the clash of soldiers' armor like rolling thunder, "How can we say we have no clothes—" The drawn-out ending pierced the sky, followed by a chorus of "We are brothers in arms" that surged in like a tidal wave.
As the drumbeats suddenly began, Confucian scholars, holding bamboo slips, ascended the steps, their clear recitations resonating with the sounds of zither playing.
Master Mo Jia manipulated a mechanical kite, scattering colorful paper all over the sky, while children laughed and chased after the paper scraps across the stage;
With a flick of her fingertips, the Moon Goddess of the Yin-Yang School conjured up the stars of the Nine Heavens to adorn the stage;
Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie jumped onto the stage, their sword dance shaking the four directions, the snow-white sword tassels shattering the moonlight on the ground.
Farmers beat out rough rhythms with bark drums; merchants put down their loads and sang while striking earthenware jars…
"How can you say we have no clothes? We will share our garments with you. The king is raising an army; let us prepare our armor and weapons, and march together with you!"
As the chorus of "Walking Together" soared to the heavens, dockworkers in short clothes stood shoulder to shoulder with princes in tall crowns and wide belts, white-haired doctors stroked their beards and sang along, and young children rode on their fathers' shoulders, waving their sleeves.
Thousands of red ribbons hung from the stage dome, surging into crimson waves as the song played, each fold engraved with the magnificent spirit of the Han Dynasty: "Wherever the sun and moon shine, all is Han land."
Using the past to illuminate the present, isn't this also a magnificent chapter of the Han Dynasty?
Liu Che was deeply moved by what he saw, and then strode onto the stage, taking Liu Ju with him. They stood in the center of the crowd and sang together.
Wei Zifu was also brought to the position of Yin Yang School by Chen Ajiao. The two former "love rivals" now looked at each other with mutual appreciation and closeness.
The audience members also stood up and joined in the chorus.
One after another, people in various branch venues stood up, as if this would allow them to sing louder and make the heavens and earth hear them more clearly.
Listen to the spirit of the great man, listen to the courage of every one of them.
"How can you say we have no clothes? We share the same robes. The king is raising an army; let us prepare our spears and shields, and fight together against this common enemy!"
How can you say we have no clothes? We'll share our garments with you. The king is raising an army; let us prepare our spears and halberds, and fight alongside you!
"How can you say we have no clothes? We will share our garments with you. The king is raising an army; let us prepare our armor and weapons, and march together!"
As the last note crashed down like a war drum, brilliant fireworks exploded across the vast lands of the Han Dynasty in the night.
The dazzling display of lights and colors caused the crowd to cheer with joy.
Above the nine heavens, two giant fireworks exploded one after the other. First, the powerful character "大" (Da) appeared like a bronze inscription, followed by the character "汉" (Han) soaring into the sky with crimson flames. Sparks flew out between the horizontal and vertical strokes like rain falling on a long river.
The two large characters "Great Han" came into view, bringing tears to everyone's eyes. Then, they all raised their arms and shouted in unison, "Great Han! Great Han!"
Hearing the unified shouts around him, Liu Che was deeply moved. He turned to look at Liu Ju, whose eyes were filled with the fireworks, and patted his head with satisfaction. "You're right, the Han Dynasty needs a Spring Festival Gala."
Liu Ju turned to look at him, a proud smile on his face: "Father, is this a grand event worth remembering?"
“Yes,” Liu Che nodded without hesitation, “This is a grand event that deserves to be remembered!”
As he spoke, he turned to look at the sky, his heart filled with pride: "No matter the outcome, the Han Dynasty deserves to be remembered!"
"Xiao Ji, Xiao Ji, can you hear me?"
Liu Ju shouted cheerfully, "Have you memorized everything?"
"I've got it, I've got it."
An unseen figure, carrying starlight, drifted to Liu Ju's other side and said, "When have I ever not listened to what you said?"
With a face that bore a striking resemblance to Liu Che and an intimate attitude towards Ju'er, Liu Che, the real emperor, couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
Why are you standing so close to my son?
"Oh, isn't that me!"
Xiao Ji was extremely impolite, leaving Liu Che speechless. He simply pulled Liu Ju to the other side and gave Xiao Ji a warning look.
Xiao Ji pouted and couldn't help but mutter, "What a stingy pig."
"Um?"
“I mean,” Xiao Ji immediately corrected himself, “I forgot to congratulate you.”
Liu Che asked, puzzled, "Congratulations on what?"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for triggering the special achievement "Unity of Hearts Moves Mountains"! Success rate increased by 5%]
