Inside Jinguan City.

At that time, no matter the nobles and civilians, their hobby after tea and dinner was to pursue dramas

The Liyuan Spring Festival is an annual event, and all major opera troupes have to show their housekeeping skills and unique skills one by one.

Because, during the festival, whichever theater troupe has a high box office will become a well-deserved top brand in the city in the new year.

Therefore, the major opera troupes have already carefully prepared their opening scenes.

Last year's top brand was the Yuntai opera troupe that has been stationed in Yuefeng Teahouse for a long time.

This spring, the opening drama prepared by the Yuntai Opera Troupe is "Double Column Biography".

Just because, once in the life of the Yuntai Opera Troupe, Qin Huaijue and Qin Huaiyu, they are singing, doing, reading, playing, and playing, and the jargon is called the four skills and five methods, all of which are top-notch.

Therefore, I want to show the strengths of two people at the same time in one play.

……

On the night of spring, the moon is breezy, and the Yuefeng teahouse is brightly lit and full.

Everyone waited with bated breath, only to see Xiao Er shuttling through it, refilling cups of tea for the guests.

Xiao Yan and the other three also sat down in the box on the second floor early and waited for the show to start.

Although he was waiting, Ishikawa didn't calm down for a moment, kept twisting his body, and looked at Xiao Yan, "You tell me first, what is this "Double Column" singing, otherwise I won't understand, and I'll be blind to this expensive ticket." ”

"Okay, just for your attitude, I have to talk about it."

Xiao Yan likes to be lively, but Mu Qing is happy and clean, and cherishes words like gold. Therefore, Xiao Yan can only tease Ishikawa and laugh to relieve boredom.

He cleared his throat and said, "This "Double Martyrs" is a legendary story written by Zhang Siwei of the previous dynasty, which tells the story of General Han Da, a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty. ”

"Ahh This Southern Song Dynasty anti-gold general General Han, I know, I know. Without waiting for Xiao Yan to finish explaining, Ishikawa replied proudly.

"You know, tell me about it." Xiao Yan spread out his palms and asked Ishikawa to continue explaining.

However, even if Ishikawa knew the head, he didn't know the tail, and he couldn't talk about it, so he had to rub his hands together in embarrassment, "Still, you can continue!" ”

Xiao Yan couldn't hold back a smile and continued: This "Double Martyr's Story" tells the legendary story of Han Shizhong, a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty's anti-Jin Dynasty, who met the prostitute Liang Hongyu in the teaching workshop. ”

"Liang Hongyu was born in a family of military generals, learned martial arts since childhood, and practiced a good skill. Han Shizhong was very blue-eyed to her, ransomed her and accepted her as a concubine, and after the original match went, he was supported as his wife. ”

After that, General Han's brilliant military exploits and his wife are also a legend. One of the most famous is the Pegasus summons: Lady Han, with her wit and courage, galloped thousands of miles at night to summon her husband to quell the rebels, and she was named Lady of Anguo and Lady Protector. ”

"She is more talked about is to go out with her husband, in the Yangtze River valley to block the battle of the Jin soldiers, for her husband to beat the drum to cheer, the drum in the surging waves, the drum sound in the three armies of the formation, its army morale was greatly encouraged, thus breaking the Jin army, to be famous in history."

Xiao Yan spoke impassionedly, and Ishikawa listened to it with relish and immersiveness......

"Silence."

Mu Qing, who had been silent and looked indifferent, suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two of them in a serious manner.

It turned out that the play was opened.

At this time, the opening drum sounded, and a person hurriedly stepped out, but seeing that his eyes were like electricity, his bones were majestic, and a good bow was a hundred shots, this was the young man Han Shizhong, who was in his prime, and rushed to join the army at the age of eighteen.

When he turned around, he saw him galloping and shooting, and his body was superb, and he attacked the enemy line alone, with one enemy, without fear, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became.

I saw him wielding a long sword, his figure was fluttering, and he was decisive in killing, and he was majestic and majestic.

The audience was also amazed, and the applause was endless.

The three people in the private room all watched with bated breath, watching the young hero on the stage kill the enemy in the midst of thousands of troops......

The army returned victoriously and summoned prostitutes to drink wine in Jingkou.

At this time, a woman slowly stepped out of the background, "Slave Liang, small character Hongyu, father and mother are here, occupy the teaching workshop, Tokyo people." She opened her mouth and groaned shallowly, although she was dressed in bright colors, there was no flattering color between her eyebrows.

She personally served wine for Han Shizhong who was present, and the two talked happily during the wine, felt each other's life experience, and cherished each other......

After that, it's a story that has been passed down through the ages.

At this time, the drums on the stage were bursting, and it was the time when Liang Hongyu was beating the drums.

But I saw her wearing a red robe, standing majestically on the bow of the boat, holding her hands in battle, and constantly beating the drum.

She heard the rumbling of cannons and the raging waves, and she stood still in the rain of arrows, beating the drum heavily.

The drum body was thunderous, and it was clearly audible among the three armies with the sound of killing.

The Jin army did not retreat, and the drums never stopped; The Jin army was defeated, and the drums stopped!

This is the famous Liang Hongyu beating the drum and retiring the gold soldiers.

For a while, the audience applauded thunderously, and the applause resounded throughout the hall.

Subsequently, in response to the call of everyone in the audience, the two came out for a curtain call, but the applause was still long-lasting.

Ishikawa also kept shouting, high-fived, and said, "Okay, it's really a strange woman!" ”

Mu Qing's expression also moved slightly, although he didn't say a word, he was afraid that he had already called countless times in his heart.

Xiao Yan was looking at Liang Hongyu, who was bending down on the stage to thank him, with deep eyes.

Suddenly, Liang Hongyu raised her head and met Xiao Yan's gaze......

She looked in Xiao Yan's direction, and suddenly smiled at him.

This smile is completely different from the previous sassy and heroic posture, but the eyebrows are beautiful and brilliant.

After laughing, he turned around and went backstage casually.

And what about Xiao Yan? Looking at her smile, her eyes changed from deep to unbelievable, and there was still a little worry.

Ishikawa is looking at the liveliness, Xiao Yan and Mu Qing are insiders, and they are looking at the doorway.

After settling down, he turned his head to look at Mu Qing, his eyes were tentative, "Brother Mu, once the life of this Yuntai opera troupe, it really deserves its reputation, that martial artist, with a mighty appearance and profound skills; Especially that Danjiao, she is really like the best among women, so heroic! Soft and rigid, but it's ......" Before he finished speaking, he stopped.

"This martial artist, impeccable, this Danjiao, can be ......" Mu Qing's eyes were also a little intriguing.

Ishikawa listened to their discussion and asked curiously, "Two, what do you mean?" Are you talking about this horn is not good? ”

After speaking, seeing that both of them looked at themselves and didn't speak, they emphasized seriously: "I think it's really good, this guy, can dress up like this, his small waist, that figure, and his big watery eyes are just a daughter's family!" It's amazing! ”

After speaking, he looked at the two of them again, still didn't speak, and was a little panicked, "Isn't what I said right?" ”

You're right, just the first sentence, "It's so godly." Xiao Yan looked at Ishikawa with a serious expression.

Which sentence is the previous one? Oh! It's the sentence "It's just a daughter's family", it's the most correct, isn't it? Ishikawa stared at Xiao Yan with wide eyes, and also looked at Xiao Yan seriously.

"That's right, that's it, think about it again!" Xiao Yan's expression became more serious, and his eyes were so strange, which made Ishikawa stunned.

After bowing his head and thinking silently for a while, Ishikawa suddenly jumped up, pointed at Xiao Yan, and exclaimed: "Do you mean that the person who sings Liang Hongyu on the stage is not a man dressed as a woman, but a real woman?" ”

Xiao Yan didn't speak, just looked at Mu Qing, and the two glanced at each other tacitly.

"God, it's really a woman, how is this possible?" Ishikawa held his head in disbelief.

Xiao Yan is a good actor.

Because the person who sings the opera, once he comes on stage, he is the person in the play, and he is similar in form and soul, but if he can get off the play, it will be a different scene.

Just now, Liang Hongyu came out for a curtain call, although she didn't put on makeup, but her expression was charming, and she was alive and well with a daughter's family like jade.

Besides, Qin Huaiyu, who plays Liang Hongyu, even if he is good at singing Danjiao, he is still an ang man, and there are traces to be found.

Therefore, Xiao Yan had already seen that the person singing Liang Hongyu on the stage was a real woman, so he deliberately asked Mu Qing.

And what about Mu Qing?

A senior actor with a delicate and agile mind has naturally seen the clues a long time ago.

It's just that, with his character, where will he say more than half a sentence? I only thought silently in my heart, "Which woman is this, who is so bold and bold, regardless of the world's opinions, and does her own thing!" ”

Such a woman reminded Mu Qing of another person, his wife who had not passed through the door, Wen Xuerong.

Because, in Mu Qing's heart, she is also a strange woman who does not value worldly views, is lively and straightforward, and has a free and easy posture.

It's like the girl I saw in the suburbs yesterday.

I can't help but secretly marvel in my heart, this Jinguan City is really outstanding, and for two days in a row, I saw two strange women who were so different.

Therefore, secretly, Mu Qing and Xiao Yan both have the same thoughts, on the one hand, they are really sweating for the woman, and on the other hand, they are admiring her!

The three of them, after knowing that Liang Hongyu on the stage was dressed as a woman, why did they have such a big reaction?

It turned out that as early as the reign of the Holy Grandfather, it had been explicitly forbidden for women to sing, and if so, even the local administrator would be severely punished, and the women who sang opera would be sent back to their hometowns.

It was also stipulated that women were not allowed to listen to the play, but this rule gradually became useless.

Because, if a large family wants to listen to the opera, they will invite the opera troupe to sing at the house; And what about the folk? In addition to the opera celebrations on the temple platform, there are also opera troupes singing on the spot in the countryside docks in order to make a living, these are all public places, and many ordinary women watch and listen to them.

At that time, opera was popular, and everyone enjoyed it.

In this way, there will be a good operator, who will have a VIP passage at the side entrance of the teahouse hall to go upstairs to the private room, so that the ladies and ladies can go to listen to the play.

But only this woman sings, and the control measures are extremely strict. The local officials are afraid of being implicated, and once they find out that a woman is singing, they will be severely punished, so can it be as simple as just sending her back to her hometown?

Therefore, the three of them were worried and admired, and only looked at the tea bowl silently.

After a long period of silence, Ishikawa walked to the window sullenly and looked out, suddenly with a solemn expression and a surprised "huh......
