Start with the silent trumpet golden rooster motivation, and the second half will become the golden rooster motivation. Subsequently, the cello-centered motivation of Xie Ma Hanwang and the melody of Ode to the Sun appeared one after another, and then the astrologer's motivation accompanied by bells also appeared one after another. When the French horn was introduced in a fantastic way, the astrologer went to the screen and told the audience that an ancient fairy tale was about to be performed, and its content was fictitious, but it contained a good lesson for kind people. In the first act, King Dodon's luxurious palace collapsed in the act of expressing the motives of the princes.
The first act of King Doton's luxurious palace
The king likes drinking, having fun, lusting, or lying down for illness. He is tired of political affairs, so he is attacked by his political enemies and even more annoyed by his neighbors' competitiveness. At an aristocratic gathering, King Dodon said to the crowd, "When I was young, I was famous for my bravery and good fighting, which made my neighbors kneel for mercy. However, I have been away from the life of fighting for a long time and just want to live a quiet and happy life. I didn't expect neighboring countries to constantly harass and invade the border, which made me very nervous. What is this? "
After listening to his father's distress, Prince Geweton suggested "withdrawing troops from the border", which is a rather cheerful and naive song. He said: "Disputes with neighboring countries always occur at the border. We just need to withdraw our troops and store enough food in the capital. When the enemy ran wildly in the countryside and fields, they ate, slept and saved their energy in the city elections, and finally suddenly counterattacked and annihilated the enemy in one fell swoop. "
The king felt the same way and agreed. The nobles sincerely admire the wisdom of the prince. Unexpectedly, Minister Bohlken retorted, "This idea is naive and stupid. If the enemy advances on the city wall and bombards the palace with artillery, don't turn into ruins after three or two times! " The king listened for a long time. After careful consideration, he found that Bohlken was right.
Then Gwyden's younger brother, Prince Avron, suggested, "We should attack a month before the neighboring countries attack." The king and most of the nobles agreed with Averan, but only one minister asked, "Who knew the news of the enemy's attack a month ago? Because the minister retorted indiscriminately and angered the king, Prince Aflon angrily drew his sword and attacked the minister. The minister ran away in panic at once. But the king was still very upset and said, "what should I do?" "
At this time, a nobleman asked whether this matter could be discussed with female teachers and magicians. When everyone was arguing about what tactics to use, astrologers appeared. He gave a golden rooster to the king who could only predict the enemy's attack. Then the golden rooster cried, "Kiliki, Kiliki, Golik! Lie down and bury it alive. " Everyone was surprised to see this wonderful golden rooster.
The king ordered, "It's wonderful. Let this golden rooster stay on the steeple of the palace immediately, and it will observe and warn the news of the enemy's invasion. " Then tell the astrologer that he can propose anything he wants. Astrologers said: "Power, wealth and status will only attract more enemies. I don't want these. What I value most is love. " But he asked for an official document stating that the king would never break his promise. The king said, "My word is the law, and there is no need to sign a document. You don't have to doubt my words, come at any time. " The astrologer bowed his thanks and stepped back.
The golden rooster shouted from the steeple, "Kiliki! Governing the country with a salary and courage! " The king was very satisfied and happy. He didn't want to go to the bedroom, but wanted to take a nap on the spot. The maid-in-waiting appeared, saying that any place could be changed into a bedroom, and asked the servant to bring the bed of brocade quilt, and then sent plates full of delicious food. The king was sleepy after eating and drinking enough, so he lay in bed. The golden rooster still crows; "Lie down and rule the country", and the king soon fell asleep. The soldiers fell asleep, too, and the whole capital was silent. The orchestra quietly played hypnotic music.
Suddenly the golden rooster shouted, "Look out! Be careful! " (This motive is the opposite of "ruling the country on the rails") People wake up from their dreams, are extremely worried and have a chaotic scene. Minister Bohlken ran in to wake the king and told him that the Golden Rooster had warned him that the enemy must have invaded.
The king declared to the people of the whole country that the country was in danger and asked them to prepare for the battle. The nobles were also armed to the teeth and gathered in the palace. The king ordered two princes to lead the army to the battlefield, but they hesitated. After the king admonished them, he divided the army into two teams, let them lead their own teams, and warned them not to kill each other, so the princes muttered and set off.
The golden rooster then called "lie down and rule the country", and the king lay in bed again, and then asked the maid-in-waiting what the dream was like. The maid-in-waiting Hu guessed: "Is it a dream of playing chess or a dream of becoming young after taking a bath with the help of the little devil?" Finally, she shouted, "I know." She pointed to the astrolabe (at this time, she played out the king's motivation to dream of Queen Xie Mahan) and said, "Is it the dream of holding a beautiful girl?" Then the king fell asleep again and continued to dream about the strange beauty.
When the guards just fell asleep and the whole capital was quiet, Jinji shouted again, "Look out!" "People woke up again, the minister flew in and shook the king awake. Although the king complained, "do old people have to fight?" "Or ordered his men to prepare weapons and equipment. Then, under the gaze of the people's chorus "My Father Holy King Ulla", he personally led the army to the battlefield with a magnificent March.
The second act is a rocky valley surrounded by cliffs.
It was a creepy night on the battlefield. The bodies were all over the valley, and King Dodon's army approached quietly. Many people tripped over the bodies, and when the king saw that both princes were killed, his heart was broken. The minister said it was useless to be sad, which encouraged him to fight bravely with the enemy, and the king quickly recovered his composure.
At this time, dawn appeared in the east, and luxurious tents could be seen at the foothills. The king ordered the cannon to aim at the tent. Unexpectedly, the tent was gently opened under the sunlight. The beautiful King Xie Mahan came out with four female slaves and sang the famous ode to the sun "Please answer, wise heaven". This is an aria. While praising the rising Xu Yue, she misses the birthplace of the East. This is a famous song that uses the Asian scale.
At first, King Doton looked at the queen warily, but soon the hostility disappeared. Then he went up to her and asked, "Who are you?" . She replied, "I'm Hanwang Shemaka, and I'm here to take your city." The king felt very strange and asked, "Don't you need a strong army to attack the city and plunder the land?" But the queen said, "My beauty is enough." Then she took out a wine glass and handed it to the king. The king became suspicious and asked her to drink first. Shemaka took a sip with a smile and handed it to the king.
At this time, the body in the valley has been buried clean, and the blanket has been laid on the ground. After the king sat down, he drank happily with Shemaka. The queen said that she was troubled by enthusiasm because of the smell of spring last night, and the king also said, "I had a trembling love dream." At this moment, the minister made a disappointing remark. The queen said she didn't like the man and asked the king to send him away. The king really ordered the minister to leave.
Then the queen immediately fell on the king and whispered "Take off this terrible dress". She sang in this seductive song: "Before nightfall, her naked body was as beautiful as white marble", and then observed the king's reaction. Then she sang an oriental song "Ah, Youth Will Wither Soon" and continued to tease the king.
The queen angrily asked the king to sing a song, too. Although the king said that he had never sung in his life, he clumsily began to sing "I love you". The queen laughed heartily and said, "Your sons killed each other and lost their lives for my love." The king lamented that the two children were so stupid. Then, it turned out that the queen sobbed when she recalled the fantasy motherland in the East.
The king comforted her not to cry, but to show courage. The queen burst into tears and smiled, expressing her happiness. Then she invited the king to dance. Although the king showed that he had never danced since he was a child, the queen took off her armor for him and danced with him with her head covered.
After the dance, the king knelt before the queen and said, "I want to dedicate my country and myself to you." The queen gladly accepted, and the king ordered to take the bride back to China, so he set off for the palace with the jeering chorus of the female slaves and the long live sound of the soldiers.
The square in front of the palace in the third act
People are worried about the safety of the king's army. The royal head nurse Amfa appeared and announced that the princes had died and that the king and his bride had returned safely. When everyone came out with a terrible premonition, first a gorgeous signal song, then a March. At the beginning of the procession are the king's soldiers, followed by giants, dwarfs, cyclops, horned people, kobolds, blacks and maids of the queen's attendants.
Then the astrologer appeared and told the king, "What I want most is this girl. Please give me Queen Shemaka as agreed! " "The king replied anxiously," although I have such a promise, everything has boundaries. ".If you ask for other things, such as gold and silver jewelry, titles of nobility, or even half the territory of the kingdom, I will give it to you. However, the astrologer insisted on this girl. The king was so angry that he ordered the guards to drag the astrologer away. Because of the fierce resistance of the astrologer, the king hit him on the head with a cane in a rage, and the astrologer died.
Strange to say, just then, the sun hid in the dark clouds and lightning and thunder flashed across the sky. The king was very remorseful and afraid. The queen smiled and encouraged him and told him not to worry. When the king wanted to kiss the queen, the queen said angrily, "you are just a waste." Toads can't eat swan meat! " "Push him down. Then the golden rooster shouted, "Kiliki cooed! I want to peck this old bastard's head! " Then it flew down from the steeple, stopped on the king's head and began to attack him with its beak. The king soon fell to the ground. Then Xie Maka smiled coldly and disappeared with the golden rooster. People sang a chorus mourning the death of the king, and the curtain fell.
At the end, the astrologer came back to life. He told the audience that this was just a fable and fantasy. Don't panic too much. "Say that finish a bow and disappeared. Between the high-pitched encouragement of the Golden Rooster, the whole play ended.
