Chapter 116 Qin Xianglian and Mulan
Chapter 116 Qin Xianglian and Mulan
This incident in Hu Putian also reminded Fang Zhongyong that the construction of spiritual civilization is also very important!
After the people have eaten and drunk enough, they can't always lie in the ground and make people, right?
From the point of view of energy conservation, it is also a waste to spend too much energy on things that do not make sense. There may be people who are in good health and energetic and don't care, but the environment of the nest is not suitable for more private things.
The family was huddled together, and there was no place to turn around, not to mention how embarrassing it was.
Therefore, after trying his best to snatch some supplies from the ruins, after the money, food, and medicinal materials of the imperial court were delivered, there seemed to be more idlers on the streets.
In view of the fact that Zi once said "what to think about with warmth", and for the stable development of the Zhao Group, Fang Zhongyong launched a spiritual civilization construction plan - singing.
It seems that everything in China in later generations can find its origin in the Song Dynasty, and Shanxi Bangzi is no exception.
There are earth-built stages in the area, and occasionally there are small plays – known locally as competition plays – which are short, gag-like jokes by parents, and even some of them have lines about obscenity and theft.
Fang Zhongyong took a look at it and felt that it was inconsistent with the main theme of the times and was not conducive to the long-term stability of the Zhao Group, so he decided to change customs and launch the drama "Mulan in the Army".
The image of Mulan comes from the folk song "Mulan Ci" of the Northern Dynasties, which was compiled into the "Yuefu Poetry Collection" by Guo Maoqian, who was born a few years later, and was also selected as a teaching material in later generations, and it seems to have become tall and tall all of a sudden.
In fact, folk songs are originally spread by word of mouth among the common people, and they don't need to be advanced to sing a few words.
Just ask a few people, they all know Mulan, and there is a taunt who swears that Mulan is from his village.
There was something to do with the secretary, and Gongsun Ce stepped out and made the originally easy-to-understand "Mulan Ci" into a four-hundred-six, flowery.
Fang Zhongyong was furious: "Are you letting the people listen to the play, or are you going to let them take the top prize?" I'm dizzy when I look at it, do you think the people can understand? ”
Gongsun Ce was very helpless: "If the student is not good at this, please punish the adult." Why don't you write it? ”
"This official has a lot of opportunities, and he doesn't have time to worry about such a trivial matter! You just speak, how can you say whatever you want, do you understand? ”
Gongsun Ce seems to understand, the number of drafts has been changed, the vernacular version of the golden bottle, uh no, "Mulan in the Army" has finally come out!
In order to prevent the performance from becoming too popular and causing turmoil in the entire human society, Fang Zhongyong decided to try out the performance in the barracks first. Anyway, the rough men in the army, it's good to watch a play, and they dare to twitter crookedly, they can't kill him!
Here's how the plot goes:
Hua Mulan weaved the cloth to half a section, stopped, held his forehead and sighed, alas! Alas!
Flower mother appearance: You are a dead girl, do you miss a man?
Mulan: Oh Mom, where did this start? It's just that yesterday, when the child saw the announcement of the conscription, Grandpa was on the list, and he was worried!
Mother of Flowers: You're worried! Could it be that you still want to fight for that bad old man?
Mulan: Why not?
Hua Mu: I can't help it! Have you ever heard that after three years as a soldier, you got a sow as Chanjuan. You're sending sheep into the tiger's mouth!
……
Mulan sings: Brother Liu's speech is too biased......
……
In short, the words of funny harlequins have been added, but the basic spirit remains the same.
As soon as this play came out, it was deeply loved by the majority of soldiers.
Dead-eyed asked: "What does Mulan have to look like in order to not be seen through in the army for more than ten years?"
A veteran ruffian replied: "You have seen through it, will you say it?" Hey! ”
There are also some soldiers with hormones, and they can't wait to tie up the actor who played Mulan on the spot.
was so frightened that Xiao Qi "lost his face", and escaped under the cover of his comrades in the forbidden army. That's it, I don't know how many people have been put on and off their hands, and a lot of oil has been rubbed away.
Since then, a bad problem has developed in the army: those who look white and clean must first verify their correct body to prevent the enemy from mixing in disguise.
The newcomer Shi Chengkan said: "Lord Fang, this play tampered with the original work indiscriminately, is it insulting?"
Fang Zhongyong nodded: "It's all Gongsun Ce's nonsense, insulting the classics, and he will definitely be punished for playing that Mulan."
Cheng Kan didn't take it seriously, he only smiled: "Adult staff, there is a furrow in the chest, and the subordinate officials admire it tightly!"
"Oh, you see?"
Cheng Kan smiled bitterly: "Although the lower official is not talented, he is not the rotten Confucian who reads dead books. Adults educate sergeants with operas that serve the country in the army, and naturally they can't write crepes. This is also the so-called, teaching students according to their aptitude. ”
Fang Zhongyong had a great impression of this talkative counselor, and asked, "I just don't know how Master Cheng plans to teach Zu Baishi and Wang Wengong?"
Cheng Kan thought for a while and said: "Although Zu Baishi was seriously injured, the aftermath was considered to be good, but under the rule of this catastrophe, an ominous name is afraid that he will not be able to run away, and he will be turned into a false position."
Wang Wengong's corpse was a vegetarian meal, and he postponed the blame, and the lower officials should also ask for the resignation of the officials. Do you think it's appropriate for the officials to do so? ”
Fang Zhongyong waved his hand: "This is your duty, I don't want to put my beak." I only ask you, what are you going to do with Li Wenliang? ”
"Li Wenliang is good at using the beacon fire, although he is loyal, but this case cannot be opened. When you are demoted, you should be punished to set an example. ”
Fang Zhongyong wanted to say something, but felt that he had nothing to say.
Rules are rules, even if they change because of one thing or one person, the person who pushes for the change must be at fault.
Besides, it's just a demotion and a fine, it's a big deal to find an opportunity to make it up for him. If you don't get demoted three or five times as an official in the Great Song Dynasty, you are embarrassed to say that you are an official.
Mulan's successful performance in the military made Fang Zhongyong full of confidence in bringing the play to the market.
It's embarrassing to really move to the earthen stage and perform. There were very few audiences, except for a few idle sweaters and officials who came to cheer, and there were more people singing than watching the play.
That's right, on the three vulgarities, the grass platform team is much more vulgar than your crepe Mulan, it's really vulgar and vulgar. Besides, a woman has gone to be a hero, doesn't it seem that the big man is too useless?
Fang Zhongyong was secretly worried.
This is not good, seeing that the Shangyuan Festival is approaching, although it cannot be celebrated as in previous years, but the entire disaster area cannot be immersed in a dead silence.
If you say it big, it is not conducive to the long-term peace and stability of the Zhao Group, and if you say it small, it is not conducive to the physical and mental health of the people, and it will also give things like Hu Putian an opportunity. We have to get the people moving and rejoicing.
What kind of literary works are popular with the common people?
With the temperament of the people of the Song Dynasty, they were most interested in royal affairs, so they had to have a royal family; People are generally very interested in the next three roads, so they should be a little colorful. Since it is necessary to promote the positive energy of society, it is necessary to have an honest and honest official. On the whole, "The Case of Quanmei" is the most suitable candidate.
Tell Cheng Kan, who is in charge of approval, Cheng Kan shook his head: "No!" No way! Although Bao Xiwen is known as a virtuous person, but now he is just a county of Tianchangzhi, when did he become the master of Kaifeng Mansion? And for the drama writer, the most taboo is not mixed with reality, and it needs to be overhauled! It needs a big change! ”
Boss Zhe said angrily: "You are a petty official, how dare you question the literary brilliance of my handsome family? ”
Fang Zhongyong raised his leg and kicked it: "Get out!" Ben Shuai and Master Cheng are a competition between literati, you guy who can't even write your name, what are you talking about! Then he turned to Cheng Kan and said: "What Master Cheng said is very true, it is the official who has not considered it. Change, change! It was changed until Mr. Cheng was satisfied. ”
Quietly saying sorry to Bao Zheng in his heart, Fang Zhongyong did not hesitate to replace Bao Qingtian with Di Renjie, and Kaifeng Mansion became Chang'an. Of course, Gongsun Ce doesn't need to change it. Anyway, the script was written by him, and it doesn't hurt to make a cameo by himself. Do you want to change Zhang Long and Zhao Hu to Fold Li Er?
Forget it, those guys are more like villains than villains, don't teach bad children, think that the quality of law enforcement officers is so low?
After the axe and machete, although it is somewhat unrecognizable, the theme has not changed, and the main theme of promoting positive social energy is still retained.
It is to the effect that during the reign of Taizong of the previous dynasty, the promising young Chen Shimei went through a lot of hardships and finally won the champion.
Because of her outstanding character, she was favored by the princess of the Golden Bottle, recruited as a concubine, and lived a happy life in the capital.
Suddenly, the wife of the dregs of her hometown came with a pair of children. Chen Shimei pretended to appease and gave gold and silver to repatriate, but secretly sent Han Qi to kill his wife and children.
Behind is Qin Xianglian's complaint, Di Qingtian is under heavy pressure to investigate, and the leader of the dragon is Chen Shimei.
Fang Zhongyong felt that he was already very sorry for Bao Qingtian, and Cheng Kan was not satisfied.
Cheng Kan asked: "Don't use any Spring and Autumn brushwork, you can tell me, where does the pressure come from?"
The eyes of professionals are vicious. Fang Zhongyong couldn't be confused: "Naturally, it's a princess!"
"Is it limited to princesses?"
"Well, the emperor also has a will, but Di Renjie has already beheaded people."
"Is there an allusion to royalty?"
"Didn't you say that it was a matter of the previous dynasty, what does it matter if something is a little inappropriate?" Fang Zhongyong was impatient.
Cheng Kan said with a smile: "The old man is old, so I will call you Zhongyong directly." Zhong Yong, this court is an official, and he likes to be brave and diligent, but he also does not like to be brave and diligent. To a certain extent, clumsiness is the right thing. You have a great future, and you must stand on your feet every step of the way, and you can't let people grasp the handle. Otherwise, these are the arrows that your political opponents will attack you in the future. ”
Listen to people's advice and eat well. What's more, it is the golden and good words of a loyal elder like Cheng Kan?
Fang Zhongyong thanked him deeply and said, "Lord Cheng's kindness, I will appreciate it later." It's just that adults can know, why did the late students have to write stories about the royal family? ”
"Oh, what's so important?"
Fang Zhongyong nodded and said: "This time the earth dragon has turned over, and the life of the people of Xinzhou, who are not rich in the first place, is even worse. Let's ask, will the people have some resentment against the official family and the court in their hearts? ”
Cheng Kan thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid there will be some." ”
"Yes. There is nowhere to vent the grievances in the hearts of the people, and long-term depression will inevitably lead to disasters, such as that Hu Putian is an example. Late Sheng pretended to be a matter of the previous dynasty, satirized the court, and finally punished the lawless with a clean official, but in fact, it was to give the people a place to vent. As for the royal matter, it was really a last resort. ”
Cheng Kanyan was very relieved when he heard this: "The old man was still worried that Zhongyong's career would be smooth, and it was inevitable that he would be arrogant. Today's words, Fang Zhiguo is really a heroic boy, and Wang Zuozhi is also talented! ”
Fang Zhongyong said with a smile: "Why does Cheng Gong use my father-in-law's words to praise Fan Zhongyan? Picking up people's teeth and wisdom, how can you show Cheng Gong's talent and learning? ”
Cheng Kan also knew that he was repeating other people's words, and said with a smile: "The old man didn't notice it for a while, but he was caught by you and other descendants." Don't worry, the old man will definitely talk about this matter for you, and no one will have a handle to catch. ”
The staging of "The Case of Quanmei" fully considered the audience's preferences and appreciation habits, combined with the common local drama competitions, and focused on training several troupes, and opened with music full of gongs and drums.
The lyrics are interesting and the scenes are lively. It was really a noisy gong and a wave of colorful flags.
Everywhere I went, I didn't perform for three or four days, and the audience didn't let me go.
After dinner, what was talked about was also speculation about whether Di Gong could really withstand the pressure, and Chen Shimei, who had a wolf's heart and lungs, seemed to have subsided a lot of pain caused by the huge disaster.
Say something that has been struck by lightning.
When the people are well fed and clothed, and they have someone to ridicule, they basically meet their living needs. As for what life will be like in the future, there is often no long-term plan.
In the long run, meat eaters like Fang Zhongyong are still needed.
For example, now, the people seem to be satisfied, but Fang Zhongyong is worried.
As the saying goes, food, clothing, housing and transportation.
There is food delivered from Xijing, and there is no shortage for the time being. The medicinal herbs are also sufficient, and it is enough to heal the wounded.
Stay, the underground nest can be sheltered from the wind and rain for the time being, and then dig a formal cave again. It's barely solved.
The problem of travel is negligible, after all, the range of activities of the ancients was relatively small, and they usually did not go far away. If you don't take into account the needs of war, a dirt road is qualified.
But who is Fang Zhongyong? That's a newcomer with ideals, official positions, talents, and good looks, how can he be reluctant?
I don't want this day to cover my eyes again, I don't want this earth to blind my heart anymore, I want all living beings to understand my intentions, I want all Buddhas to disappear.
Uh, sorry, in the wrong place!
I want to grow some high-yielding food crops, but when I think about it, I don't.
Potato, American; Corn, American; Sweet potatoes, hey, still American. I really wonder if the Americans are the illegitimate children of God, how come all the good things are left there?
That is, the aborigines do not argue, replaced by Chinese, they have long dominated the world, and there is a lighthouse country fart matter!
Even if Fang Zhongyong grew wings, he didn't have the ability to fly to the Americas all at once and bring these good breeds back.
There are also more recent varieties, the legendary three-year-old Champa rice. But if you want to grow rice on the Loess Plateau, where it is difficult to draught, Fang Zhongyong feels that it is easier to pick Li Yuanhao's head.
What can we do so that the people of this poor country can get rid of poverty and become well-off?
Thinking about it for a long time, I can't think about my sister.
