Path of The Dragonborn

"Let the audience wait for a long time. The historical drama "White Flower Love Poem", sponsored by the Student Union and based on real stories in the history of the Liber Kingdom, is about to begin. Please watch the drama quietly, don't make a lot of noise, thank you for your cooperation. "

The curtain was pulled up, and a beam of light suddenly shot down over the dark stage, shining on the seemingly empty stage. The voice of the narration (Qiaoer, the relevant characters will be reminded in parentheses, and the names in the play will be used directly later, and will not be mentioned repeatedly.) The voice sounded peacefully: "In the Liber Kingdom in 1100 years of the Seven Lunar Calendar, the noble system still exists At the same time, the civilian power centered on merchants has also begun to emerge...The opposition and struggle between the noble power and the civilian power have become increasingly fierce-the mediation between the royal family and the church cannot resolve the contradictions between the two sides..."

The range of lights expanded, and the corner of Princess Cecilia's dress played by Joshua was clearly visible.

"The brilliance of the street is the human soul shining...Under that little light, people are intoxicated in their own happiness...Ah, but I..." Joshua's exquisite acting skills surprised everyone present when he appeared.

Looking sadly at the night view of the royal capital in the distance, Princess Cecilia confided in sorrow. At this time, the two maids stepped forward. Their task was to persuade the princess to go to bed obediently.

However, the princess, who is entangled in pain, has no way to sleep peacefully. Now her marriage has become an important bargaining chip in the political struggle between the two major factions in the kingdom. Facing the maid’s persuasion, the princess just replied in an angry voice: "If I fall ill... I won't be the fire that ignited this Libel dispute."

"Princess, please don't say that." The maid was frightened, and hurriedly comforted her quietly, "His Royal Highness is Libel's treasure...will combine with the excellent Her Royal Highness to govern the kingdom together."

"I will not get married." She raised her face stubbornly, and the princess was still reluctant. "Although it is the father's last words, but this matter is no matter what..."

"Why? There are such outstanding suitors, and there are still two..."

"One is the eldest son of the duke's family, Lord Julius, the commander of the Knights of the Guard..."

"The other one is Oscar-sama, a fierce general who has made outstanding achievements in the battle with the empire, although he was born as a civilian..."

"Ah, Oscar, Julius..." The princess who stepped forward, closed her eyes and folded her hands, praying in pain.

Both of them are excellent, and the princess knows this very well. But because of this--

It is precisely because of such impeccable two people that they represent the two opposites of tit-for-tat...

"Then...who should I choose?"

The first act of "White Flower Love Poetry" ended like this. The stage returned to darkness and calm again, but the audience seats were full of whispers-before Princess Cecilia made a sound, the stage play looked normal, but when Joshua spoke, there were people I noticed something was wrong. When the two maids appeared, this noisy discussion reached its peak.

Because everyone has noticed that those maids are played by boys!

So, if you infer it like this...

"That's Joshua?" Under the stands, a woman in luxurious and high-quality clothes was suffocating a smile. She is the mayor of another area of ​​Libel, and her maid Lila is standing next to her.

"Yes... it's Mr. Joshua." Lila nodded, "Men and women cross-talk... this drama is really an ingenious design. But, although Mr. Joshua's acting skills are very superb, this costume is also very... …Fits.” Lila thought for a long time before she found a more polite adjective, “but those two maids are a bit...”

"I'm afraid Qiaoer forced them to do this. In this way, the audience's eyes are all attracted... It's just... nothing more, it's just an eye-catching farce."

"Yes... But, you seem to be not only paying attention to the play itself?"

"Yeah, Lila, look at the decoration behind it." Maybel pointed at the flower belt arrangement on the palace background. "The decorations are very elegant and they are completely modeled on the Liberty royal style of the nobility... And although the acting skills of the two boys were not good enough, their actions and manners, including the position of their standing, were completely in line with the royal court etiquette... I think this script and props arrangement should have been helped by others. "

"That's it... In other words, with such a person, don't you worry about what will happen to the script itself?"

"Yeah... If there is no problem with the script, everything depends on the performance of the actors... I don't know how you will perform different "White Flower Poems". "

Under the eyes of Mayor Maybell and other audiences, the story continues.

"Remember, Oscar? When I was a child, I ran around in this little alley with half a wooden stick." With a gentle and indifferent smile, Esther played the red knight Julius in a red uniform. , And the childhood friend who grew up together, but now had to face each other with swords, asked such a question.

"How could I forget it. The carefree happy days I spent with you and His Royal Highness Cecilia... are irreplaceable memories in my life." With a bitter smile, Kolo The blue knight Oscar played by Silk also responded in the same way.

From the standpoint of their respective representatives, the two can be said to have to become opponents and enemies of each other. Ironically, Oscar, Julius, and Princess Cecilia were close playmates in childhood.

The princess who sneaked out because of the unbearable loneliness in the palace, the noble knight Julius who slipped out to rest after training, and the king Oscar who wandered on the street all day. For a long time, they They all played and played together until the princess and the knight were captured by the elders and put them under strict care, making it difficult to sneak out to meet again.

It's just that the extremely short time to get along is enough to plant the seeds of love among young and pure young girls. For the angelic and beautiful girl, the noble boy trained harder and joined the Knights of the Guards and became the backbone of the Knights. The commoner boy joined the kingdom army, charged on the battlefield, and made great achievements, Oscar. The name is Megatron nationwide for a time.

However, the increasingly antagonistic noble and civilian forces made the flames of their admiration even more painful to Princess Cecilia.

"Aristocratic power and civilian power... the opposition between the two has ushered in an inevitable situation. The princess's sigh is also helpless..." Julius frowned and told the sad truth.

The second act, which explained the background before and after the political marriage, is over, while the third and fourth acts are very fast, respectively telling in detail the helplessness of the two knights facing their respective camps. The Speaker of Colorado and the Duke of Rado remained unchanged under the ridicule of the two knights. Julius failed to persuade his father's aristocratic ideology, and Oscar failed to quell the speaker's intention to insist on launching an armed and **** coup.

In the eyes of the audience, the fifth act slowly opened...

PS: At the beginning of the next chapter, in order to ensure the continuity of the plot, I will continue to write in a direct way of telling the plot, as if such a story did happen...not the way to describe a stage play, but It's just writing the content itself...it's like telling a story.
