Chapter 124: Watching a Play in the Green Building

The green mountains are all over the white river, the rain is like smoke in the sound of the sub-regulation, and there are few idlers in the countryside in April, so the sericulture is planted and the fields are planted.

The land south of the Yangtze River has entered the April day, the weather is gradually becoming hotter, and the fields outside Runzhou City have been planted with green seedlings, full of vitality.

The scholars and people in the city continued to live a comfortable life of drunken dreams and death.

From the late Tang Dynasty to the Five Dynasties, the whole society was permeated with an apocalyptic mood. The romantic passion of the literati of the Tang Dynasty has long disappeared without a trace, and the sense of responsibility of the literati in the Tang Dynasty who are worried about the country and the people has also disappeared. In the face of the continuous change of dynastic regimes and the continuous crusade against each other, people in the chaos of life and death, faith is gone, the spirit has fallen, life is short, and they want to have fun in time and pursue flashy excitement.

This is a portrayal of the life of the literati and writers of Western Shu, Southern Tang Dynasty, and Qian Yue, as well as the powerful squires.

Now, with the upcoming performance of the drama West Chamber in Xiangyun Pavilion, there has been a lot of discussion in Runzhou City. In addition to being curious, I am more of a state of mind to watch the excitement, and I am not optimistic, especially the Hua Dan and Qing people of Cuiwei Pavilion, Red Sleeve Fang, Tongque Tower, and Qingqi have all spread the word, commenting that this is just a gimmick of Xiangyun Pavilion's dying struggle and making, so there is no need to care too much.

On this day, it is finally the day of the performance in Xiangyun Hall.

Even Han Xizai, Xu Qingwan and others were shocked, because Xiangyun Pavilion released news yesterday that this opera script was written by Su Yixuan, which caused a sensation again and pushed the propaganda effect to a high point.

After even Bai Susu heard about it, when he met Su Chen in the workshop in the morning, he specially asked him, why did he choose to help Liu Monong?

Su Chen thought about it, and just replied lightly: "Maybe, because she is pitiful and pitiful; Maybe it's because I have some fate with her. ”

"Then do you want to lend you tens of thousands of dollars to redeem her from the Xiangyun Pavilion?" Bai Susu looked at him with a smile.

Su Chen thought seriously for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's still ...... Don't want it, I'm not familiar with her to that point, let's see the situation in the future, and when I need to, I'll borrow it from you! ”

Bai Susu didn't say anything, chewing a few dried broad beans and fruits in her mouth, only listening to the sound of "quack" and "quack", although she still had a smile on her face, Su Chen didn't know why, but she had a chill in her heart.

After only staying for a moment, Su Chen offered to leave, because he felt that he was standing next to an iceberg, and he was chilled all the time.

Bai Susu looked at Su Chen's distant figure and glanced at him, but the corners of his mouth showed a hint of a smile.

When Su Chen returned to his Su Mansion, Han Yunpeng had already rushed over in advance to wait, and when he saw him coming back, he grabbed his arm and said excitedly: "The West Chamber's performance in Xiangyun Pavilion will start at noon, you prepare, let's go over in advance, Miss Liu sent someone to send an invitation and reserved a good place in the front row for us." ”

Su Chen looked at him with an excited look on his face, and said speechlessly: "Didn't we watch the rehearsal a few days ago, is it worth your excitement?" ”

Han Yunpeng shook his head and said, "My brother wow, can that be the same!" I heard that Xiangyun Pavilion sent out a lot of invitations yesterday, to the big people with heads and faces in Runzhou City, dignitaries, businessmen and gentry, talented sons and talented women, and even the directors of the same flower building, all sent invitations, which is intended to become popular with one hit, and many big people in Runzhou City will go! Witnessing it with my own eyes this time, do you think I can not be excited? ”

"What does it have to do with you!" Su Chen still couldn't figure it out, what was he excited about.

"There's also the participation of Ben Gongzi in this, wow, the first two times, didn't I still give my opinions? For example, the evil in the play, the acting is not in place, the expression is exaggerated, superficial, and the bad is conservative, I also personally guided and demonstrated it......"

Su Chen nodded: "You are performing in your true colors, it is indeed difficult for others to learn the essence!" ”

"My brother, let's stop talking nonsense here, let's go over quickly, it's too late, and the good position will be taken away by others." Han Yunpeng couldn't wait to pull him out.

When the two were about to go out, they happened to meet Peng Jingqing, who was dressed as a man and had a heroic posture, and walked in and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go to the Green House!" Han Yunpeng replied subconsciously.

"What!" Peng Jingqing's willow eyebrows were raised, and his eyes glared at the two.

Su Chen explained: "Don't listen to his nonsense, we received an invitation to Xiangyun Pavilion this time, where there is an opera performance of "The Legend of the West Chamber", currently in Runzhou City, many people with heads and faces will be invited, and we will also go over to have a lively time and enjoy the performance of this novel opera." ”

Literate people, and uneducated people, it tastes different when they say the same thing.

One said to go to the Qinglou, vulgar!

One said that going to enjoy opera performances was an elegant thing.

"Yes, yes, go to the Qinglou to watch the show!" Han Yunpeng followed to explain.

"......" Su Chen was speechless, twisted Han Xiaopang beside him, and secretly sighed in his heart: Can you not follow the blind mixing, the more you describe, the darker it gets.

If you watch a performance, you can say that you will watch a performance, and if you don't add a Qinglou performance, it is easy for people to misunderstand that it is the kind of project - stripping and twisting hips, or whip throwing.

Fortunately, Peng Jingqing had already understood, so he didn't delve into it, and nodded slightly: "It's just right, I'll go with you too, and have a good time." ”

Su Chen hesitated: "In the land of Qinglou, didn't you have a good past?" ”

Peng Jingqing waved his hand and said, "What's this, didn't you see that this girl has changed her men's clothes?" Besides, Xu Cainu and some wealthy ladies can go, why can't I go? ”

"Alright, let's go over together!" Su Chen didn't stop him, anyway, he didn't have to invite guests himself in the past, they entered with invitations, but they were free of charge.

The three of them set off and got into the carriage that Han Yunpeng brought from the mansion, saving themselves from walking on foot.

In the carriage, the three of them talked about the "Yun Jingxuan" bookstore, and Han Yunpeng said that the craftsmen of lettering and printing are already making word molds, and it is expected that the first batch of manuscripts will be printed in a few days.

Things are developing on the good side, Su Chen is in a happy mood, and after coming to Nantang for nearly a month, he finally got rid of the predicament and discomfort, and has his own foundation and small business. The next step is to work steadily, strengthen cooperation with Bai Susu, and earn more money.

In less than a pillar of incense, the carriage stopped outside the Xiangyun Pavilion.

Su Chen, Peng Jingqing, and Han Yunpeng got off the bus, and saw that there was a long queue at the door, and they were checking the tickets.

Many Qinglou and tiles have sent people to watch and inquire about the news, so the entrance of Xiangyun Pavilion is very noisy and the door is like a city.

Su Chen and the three of them took the invitation card and entered through a special passage through the other side door, so they didn't have to queue up.

Walking into the lobby, I found that the space on the first floor of Xiangyun Pavilion has also been temporarily renovated, the stage is placed in the open space in front of it, with the curtain drawn, and there is a table near the stage area, which belongs to the VIP area, on which there are some fruits, dried fruits, dried meat, wine, etc.

However, the peripheral auditorium only has ordinary wooden stools and chairs, and there are no tables, so that more people can be accommodated.

Since the show is about to start, there are already a lot of people gathered in the lobby, sitting densely, just waiting for the show to begin.
