Chapter 31: Conspiracy and Intrigues
Su Chi used to go to Yueyinfang to listen to operas, but recently Taoqiu Opera Club has produced a lot of new plays, although Yueyinfang is naturally very good because of the business of Fengyue, but Taoqiu Opera Society's plays are also famous. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info came more and more, and Su Chi became more and more casual, she was half lying on the couch, "The voice is really good, let alone someone else, now even I don't want to go to Yueyinfang with Lan Qi to listen to the play, it seems that this Taoqiu Opera Club's ability to grab business is still good!"
"It's just that I've written a few more plays, and the girl also knows that storytelling has always been Yiya's forte. Yi Ya doesn't think there is anything to praise, most of the actors are from low backgrounds, and there are few literate people, so there are many actors, but there are very few people who write plays, and it is not easy to retain guests with those classic old scripts.
"You used to only play the piano in Yueyinfang, and didn't make plays, right? Why have you changed your profession now?" The long couch was panicked, and Su Chi frowned slightly.
"In the past, it was just a limitation of identity, but now the girl needs this Taoqiu Opera Club, and strengthening the Opera Club is Yi Ya's first mission. Yi Ya got up, took a pillow from the cabinet on the side and handed it to Su Chi.
Su Chi smiled, "Now you are more comfortable here than my home, if it weren't for my father's access control, I really want to stay, you might as well change it to an inn or something, it must be more lively." ”
"I think it's good to come to this place to live occasionally, but I'm afraid it's not okay to stay for a long time. The girl's daughter has no maids and servants to wait, and I am afraid that eating and dressing will become a problem. Yi Ya bought the Taoqiu Opera Club after the year, he insisted on putting this opera club under Su Chi's name, Su Chi only said that her identity was too eye-catching, but it was not good, and even Yi Ya insisted on the income he wanted to give, so Yi Ya could only put the opera club under his own name.
Along with the previous life, Su Chi has always grown up in a rich family, and he has indeed not tasted much of the bitterness of poverty: "I think it's not bad to be an ordinary person often, the official eunuch family has the benefits of the official eunuch family, and the common people also have their own fun, and the people who have to squeeze into the people are not necessarily very happy." ”
Yi Ya didn't give face, he was born poor and naturally understood the hardships of poverty, Su Chi's sigh was just talking in his heart, as if a child didn't do anything. After getting along for a long time, she is not as restrained as before: "The girl doesn't have a backache when she stands and talks, how many heroes are stumped by a penny throughout the ages, how can a daughter like a girl who is not diligent and has no distinction between grains and grains live a poor life?"
"I can't say you, when it's really time for me to live a poor life and take care of the farming, I must see it with your own eyes. Su Chi held the pillow in his arms and moved his body back.
"Yi Ya hopes that this day will never appear. Yi Ya took Su Chi's pillow, but remembered a serious matter: "The matter of Prince Xie Yu has been investigated a little, and the people of Yushitai have proved that the handwriting on the cloth found that day is not the same as that of Prince Xie Yu." I heard that for this reason, the nearly 100-year-old old master Jiang of the Wutang was invited to discern it, and it turned out that all the talents who were like a river were silent, and it was rare to find this great Confucian, presumably a lot of famous inkstones were sent. ”
"This old master Jiang should have been personally invited by His Royal Highness the Prince, they originally had a teacher-student relationship, but the prince had just worshiped the teacher back then, and within a few days, Old Master Jiang was ill. His Majesty had to point out the old master's proud protégé to be the prince's teacher, but he was afraid of messing up the generations, so he only called Mr. and not called the teacher. "This old master Jiang Suchi also heard Ning Lizhen speak, saying that he had taught in the martial arts hall and Taixue, if it weren't for the poor family, presumably the Xie family's status in the hearts of the world's scholars would have to be reduced, but this person doesn't eat hard and soft, but he likes to collect famous inkstones.
"So that's the case, it stands to reason that even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to curb His Royal Highness King Yu, it doesn't have to be so obvious, since he has the name of master and apprentice with the old master, shouldn't he avoid it?" Although Yi Ya often inquired about the news, Ning Lizhen always loved himself in the palace and didn't like to go back and forth to Fengyue places, so he only heard of the prince Ning Lizhen Yiya.
Yi Ya doesn't know what the prince is like, and for the prince, who has fallen into passivity, declaring war is what he really wants to do. The prince's brother often told me that he valued yang conspiracy more than intrigues, put everything on the bright side, and competed openly, winning to win refreshingly, and losing convincingly. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this incident was provoked by His Royal Highness King Yu, and since this is the case, the prince will not hide his head and show his tail. Su Chi has a thorough understanding of Ning Lizhen's many years of getting along, and he is very familiar with his temperament and temperament.
"I didn't expect that the prince of a dignified country was so upright and heroic, and I thought that His Royal Highness had always been cautious from the past, and I didn't want to be able to attack boldly this time. Yi Ya was more surprised than admired by Ning Lizhen's frankness, in fact, he didn't agree with Ning Lizhen's "Yang Conspiracy Theory" in his heart, after all, success and defeat were the truth, and when he finished the last sentence, his eyes had already turned to Su Chi, with questions.
Su Chi took the cushion again, and began to ponder the embroidery on the pillow, and found that Yi Ya's eyes were still listening to her, so she was a little speechless: "I just worshipped the Buddha with the prince once, or in the name of the county lord, why do you know it one by one?" Su Cen is still eating behind closed doors for the first time, Su Chi was originally misunderstood by Su Cen because of the joy of persuading Ning Lizhen, Su Cen stood outside the door and sighed "The female is not staying", and then Su Yuan asked, Su Cen said 1510. Su Cen, who originally had the mentality of letting Su Yuan educate Su Chi well, was completely disappointed, Su Yuan actually asked Su Cen to look at the outside affairs more, how can there be any manliness in the parents all day long? "Su Cen is aggrieved and frustrated, in the matter of the prince, how can Ah Chi be measured?
Su Chi received a post from Fu Nanqiao that day, but Fu Nanqiao's cheerful temperament will not go to worship the Buddha, so the person who asked her was the prince Su Chi knew in his heart, and the reason why he didn't break it when he arrived at the Buddhist temple was just because the two of them tacitly agreed. Yi Ya would never ask about her private affairs in the past, but such cases are rare, and Su Chi still explained: "It was the prince's post in the name of the county lord, because of Mr. Xie's business, I was about to enter the palace to meet the prince a few days ago." If you reject the post, how can you go to the East Palace again?"
Yi Ya's eyes rolled, and he threw out a meaningful smile: "So, this post girl can't refuse at all?"
Su Chi knew what Yi Ya meant: the prince chose a time that Su Chi couldn't refuse and gave her an invitation to reveal her identity, but Su Chi didn't mind if it was Ning Lizhen's careful thinking, and even if it was, it didn't matter. So Su Chi didn't hesitate: "So to speak. ”
Yi Ya rarely broke the casserole and asked, "Then if you can refuse, will the girl go to the appointment?"
Su Chi was open-minded: "If you have nothing to do, the weather should not live up to the good times that day, and we have grown up together since childhood, and the prince is like a brother to me." ”
Yi Ya regarded Su Chi's last sentence as a girl's shyness, and he sighed: "Girl, do you know that according to my Beiwan folk customs, an unmarried woman can't worship Guanyin, unless she goes with her fiancé to ask for an official fortune before marriage?"
Su Chi's pupils widened slightly, and he was taken aback: "I don't have a grandmother by my side, and even the maids are young and young." ”
Yi Ya was very surprised: "So you haven't heard of it?"
"Never heard of it. But I'm not yet eleven, isn't it too early to say that?"
"In addition to the concubine Niangniang, the marriage of women in Beiwan has always been sooner rather than later, and an old man should be added to the girl's side to take care of everything. ”
Su Chi only hated that when he was in the genalogy, he didn't agree with the stereotypical dogma of ancient women in his heart, and he didn't even want to listen to the customs and folklore, and now he made jokes. Yi Ya's words reminded Su Chi of another strange thing.
Su Chi also knew about the late marriage of the concubine, and when the concubine Su Jiang married into the palace, it was rumored that she was already a nineteen-year-old girl. said that the head of the family felt that Su Jiang had a relationship with Buddhism, and even intended to make her a lay disciple, but he didn't expect that he was later admitted to the palace by the queen's honor guard, and how many women were so jealous that they went crazy. Many noble ladies also let out their words: It's just because there are really no women of the right age in the Su family's generation, and Su Jiang is just a decoration, and His Majesty may want to build her a golden and jade nunnery to hide Jiao? The rumors of Jinling have dispersed over time, but Su Chi has calculated one thing according to the genealogy, and clearly knows that the concubine was not nineteen years old when she entered the palace, but twenty-two years old. A maverick woman like her aunt cares so much about her age, otherwise why would she deliberately change her age?
