The fourteenth day of the first month.

The banks of the Qinhuai River have become lively.

Although the Lantern Festival has not officially begun, businesses on both sides of the strait have already put on their lanterns, stocked up with sufficient goods, and are going all out to prepare for this Lantern Festival.

Ten miles of Qinhuai, a prosperous place in Jinling.

Jinling City is built along the river, the two banks are densely populated, there are street shops along the river, there are many restaurants, strong wine and songs, countless merchant ships and painting boats come and go on the river day and night.

Painting the boat building, the singer is in it, singing and dancing, and the silk and bamboo are ethereal.

The scholars and scholars of Jinling City lingered.

On the banks of the Qinhuai River, half talented, half beautiful.

On this day, Xie Anran took a horse out of the princess's mansion and came to the Qinhuai River for a walk.

Slipped to the door of the "Yanyu Building", one of the best green buildings in the Qinhuai River.

But I saw that there was already a pretty singer who was looking forward to it and eagerly greeted her.

"Master Horse, you can count it, the slave who is waiting is so anxious!"

The singer said coquettishly.

Xie Anran smiled, followed her up to the Yanyu Building, shook the jade fan in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Duhou's song "Seeking and Seeking", how did you rehearse?" ”

"Thanks to the master of the horse, the music composed by himself, this year's Oiran Conference has the confidence. The slave has been rehearsed very skillfully, so this song and dance will be sung, and please give me some advice! ”

The singer is pretty.

The two went up to the lively Yanyu Building and went to a large elegant room upstairs. There is already a dance and music team preparing to rehearse a new word.

In other words, the annual Qinhuai River Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is a big day for the birth of "Qinhuai Oiran".

There are more than ten green houses on the banks of the Qinhuai River, and each family will send the most outstanding girl to prepare the best program to represent their own green buildings to welcome this Oiran event.

In these programs, there are blowing, pulling, singing, playing, singing, dancing, acting, playing... No limit to types, just to name a few.

Qinhuai Oiran is selected every year during the Lantern Festival.

Throughout Jinling City, all the powerful princes, gate lords, and nobles will come to cheer for the Oiran Conference.

The VIPs offered gold to give an oiran, and each person could give a gold, and the amount of gold was divided into the high and low of the oiran.

At the Qinhuai Oiran Festival, if any girl can win the championship in one fell swoop, then for the next whole year, she can use the "Qinhuai Oiran", the supreme honorary title of flowers.

The Qinglou is naturally full of guests, and the guests are full of guests, and they spend a lot of money in order to make the Oiran smile, and there are countless of them.

This Oiran title is too valuable!

In order to compete for the name of Oiran, they tried every means to make up a new Lantern Festival program to cheer on the distinguished guests.

The major Qinglou has hired all kinds of literati masters in Jinling City to make shows for them.

In the case that the strength of the girls in the Qinglou in Qinhuai is almost the same, the most important thing in the show is to highlight a "new" word.

In the past month, a new poem "Seeking and Seeking" by Xiao Duhou has become popular among the literati of Jinling City and has become a new trend.

The girls in the Qinglou of Qinhuai River can't say how much they love this new word, and almost all of them have become little fans of the little faint marquis.

Take this new song, come and go, and change it into a song and dance program, which can naturally arouse the interest of all the distinguished guests.

However, composing a poem and adapting it into a song and dance is not ordinarily difficult.

What's more, this is a new word that no one has ever written, and it is difficult to compose music for it.

The musicians of Qinhuai Qinglou don't have the ability to adapt this.

To compose a music for this new song, of course, Xie Anran has to make a move.

Xie Juma is one of the few senior Yuefu masters in Jinling City, a top master, and the favorite handsome guy of the girls in Qinhuaihe.

A few days ago, Yanyu Lou invited Xie Anran to compose a tune for the new song "Looking for Seeking" and handed it to one of the most outstanding girls in the building to perform.

Everyone knows that the horse master has no silver in his pocket, but he is talented!

As a reward, as long as Xie Juma came to visit Yanyu Building, Yanyu Building never accepted Xie Yin, and they were all enjoyed at will....

Even if it is other green buildings, I can't wait for Xie Ma to go to them to eat, drink and have fun, the more the merrier.

The little money spent on visiting the Qinglou is completely incomparable to the huge fame of the Oiran.

The pretty singer sang and danced under the musician's zither.

Xie Anran was quite satisfied after watching the singer's song and dance, nodded and said, "Well, it's not bad!" The posture is beautiful, flawless, just a little more proficient.

Tomorrow's Lantern Festival, this horse will invite a few princes and princes to come to the banquet together, you can be entertained! ”

"Yes, in the direction of the master of the horse, the slave will be hospitable!"

Singer said happily.

Xie Anran thought for a while, took out a copy of "The Story of Stones" from his sleeve, and said: "Just this new word of the faint marquis can only resist the freshness of the Lantern Festival during this time.

You go back to this book and pick out some, this fifth chapter is very good, it can be acted into a stage play, enough for you to have a whole year of scenery in Yanyulou! ”

"The Stone? ... Hey, it's written by the little marquis again?! ”

The singer took the book and looked through it suspiciously, and was suddenly stunned and ecstatic.

"The slave will rehearse tonight, and the fifth chapter, "Jia Baoyu Travels to the Fantasy Land, Refers to the Twelve Hairpins", will be on stage tomorrow. It will definitely be a sensation and become the focus of Oiran! ”

Xie Anran was puzzled: "Is it too late?" ”

The process of compiling a stage play is extremely complicated.

Just the rehearsal of a group of people takes a long time before they can get familiar with each other's cooperation.

He is good at composing music, but he is not very good at rehearsing.

"With this book, the lines and repertoire are completely usable, and there is no need to change them.

You can only act and discharge it.

In our Yanyu Building, we invited a top painter with a very high level and asked him to draw the entire repertoire, segmentation, scene by scene. It's easy to remember. In this way, it only takes one night and is fast! ”

The singer hurriedly said.

"Oh, who's the master painter? So powerful! ”

Xie Anran was surprised.

"A few days ago, the slave saw a scholar on Changle Street, who was very good at making pictures of ladies with new words, so he asked him to come over and help draw some pictures of ladies for Yanyulou."

The singer immediately sent someone to hire the artist.

After a while, I saw a young scholar in a green shirt walking out in a restrained manner.

"Lord Father Flame?"

Xie Anran was taken aback.

He has no relationship with his master, Yan.

It's just that there are only four excellent students in the palace examination this year, and the master father Yan accounts for one of them, so it's hard not to know him!

This master father Yan was born poor, extremely arrogant, and miscellaneous, and could not get along with the Confucian students in Jinling City, and was quite excluded.

Unexpectedly, he was so poor that he needed to make a living painting in the Qinglou!

"I've seen Xie Concubine!"

When the master father Yan saw the second largest man in Jinling City, he recognized it, and couldn't help but look a little embarrassed, "It's not easy to live in Jinling City, and I am shy in my lower pocket, so I have to come here to make a living..." ”

The price given by Yanyu Building is too high... Too high that he couldn't refuse.

A painting on the street only earns one or twenty copper coins, but Yanyulou pays one or two silver for painting a high-quality maid painting. As long as his brain is not broken, he will definitely embark on this road to making a fortune.

"Brother doesn't need to say much!"

Xie Anran immediately interrupted the words of the master father Yan, and said with great joy: "Immediately draw the fifth chapter of this "Stone Record", Jia Baoyu's dream of meeting the twelve golden hairpins, as soon as possible." You will draw the play, and I will compose the background music. Rehearse today and use this latest show tomorrow! ”

He is not one of those Confucian scholars, he is equally knowledgeable, and he will not reject the master father Yan.

Xie Anran handed over the manuscript of "The Stone Record" to the master father Yan.

"Stones? Little faint? What a book! ”

Master Father Yan looked at it, his face was excited, flushed, and rubbed his hands excitedly.

The neologisms are too short, and there is not much room for him to play.

Over and over again, there are those scene pictures, the little dusk marquis is drinking cold wine in the inn, and the girl is sitting against the window, she can't draw too many tricks, and she doesn't earn much copper money.

But the content of this "Stone Record" is too rich and substantial, and there are countless characters. Any paragraph is an excellent scene, and it can be painted in a big way!

Yes, to make a fortune in Jinling City, you rely on it!

"No problem!"

"It's just a lady's picture, I'm the best at this!"

The singer is even more excited, as soon as this play comes out, it will definitely be a sensation and win the crown of the Oiran event in Jinling City, there is great hope!
