Compared with the five books of "The Legend of the West Chamber", these three books of "Dream of Jinling" with 12% are far from being comparable in terms of beautiful tunes and police words. It's not that Tang Yin's pen is inferior, but that others have been sharpening a sword for ten years, such as Tang Xianzu Wang Shifu, a famous acrobatic artist, and there are only a few works in his life, and Tang Yin wants to come up with such a play in just two months, even if the content is ready-made as described by Xu Xun, he is already a first-class emergency ghost. As for the rehearsal of the tune, Gu Da helped dig up the best troupes with the power of the West Factory, but it was far from perfect.

However, just after the Spring Festival of the first year of Zhengde, when the final "Final" and "Reunion" were folded, and there was news that they would be premiered in Xianyuan, the limited sale of 200 tickets was still snatched up. Among them, Zhu Houzhao ordered him to reserve a private seat box for himself, plus Xu Xun himself, who had a good relationship with him, and coaxed him to come and see, and the ten boxes on the second floor of the newly built opera garden in Xianyuan were also snatched up early.

On this day, Shen Yue, who was deliberately wearing men's clothes and hats and covering them low, sat in the box where the curtain had not yet been opened and waited, and after laughing for a while, a head suddenly poked in.

Xu Xun was startled and was about to ask, but found that Zhu Houzhao was dressed as a small fireman, and when he recognized him, he put his finger on his lips and made a silent gesture. He and Shen Yue glanced at each other in their hearts, after all, they couldn't resist their curiosity, and when Zhu Houzhao's head retracted, it didn't take long for them to get up together and go to the crack of the door curtain to peep quietly, and found that Zhu Houzhao was still wearing the same person dressed as a small fireman, the one with an awkward and uncomfortable face, when he entered the box next to him, he was still glaring at Zhu Houzhao, and Xu Xun, who looked away, couldn't help but look very strange.

"What's going on?"

Shen Yue knew that Zhu Houzhao was next door, and asked in an extremely low voice, Xu Xun was worried that she would not be too gullible with herself outside, so she leaned over and put her mouth to her ear and said: "The emperor abducted a palace person from the Empress Dowager's palace, and I don't know how much effort Liu Jin and they secretly spent. It's still early for the show, and he will definitely coax people to say that there is no one here, we don't speak, listen to what they are doing next door. ”

Knowing that Zhu Houzhao, the emperor, had always been bold and reckless, although Shen Yue was taken aback, he glanced at Xu Xun and muttered softly: "If there is a minister, there must be a king...... and then Xu Xun pulled her back to the chair and sat down. Just as the two of them pricked up their ears, a low-voiced woman's voice came from next door.

"Why are you so bold! The Queen Mother clearly asked us to follow Rong Shangyi to send things to the Shouning Marquis Mansion, you are good, throw things on the door, and pull me out, and say anything to watch the play, no matter how good this play is, it is not what we should watch now! Look at the box made, maybe there will be some rich and noble people coming over later, and see what kind of system the two of us have become here! ”

"Hey, Seventh Sister, you always look ahead and backward when you do things, there is no good work in the palace, will I let you come?" Zhu Houzhao's tone was undisguised and full of indifference, "I'll tell you the truth, the Queen Mother is also very interested in this play, Rong Shangyi has come to see it every time, and when the whole performance is finished today, the Teaching Workshop Division in the Ming'er Palace will also rehearse and show it to the Queen Mother, I finally begged Gonggong Li to let the two of us give Rong Shangyi a front stand." I don't know how much effort it took to get this good errand, Seventh Sister, you still scold me, I'm too wronged! ”

Hearing this, Xu Xun was amazed by Zhu Houzhao's nonsense, but he had to admit that the person the little emperor pulled to cover this time was really wonderful. Sure enough, although Zhou Qiniang next door still taught a few lessons, it was all innocuous and made Zhu Houzhao more diligent, and there was nothing new about it. His stomach hurt from laughter, and he was about to hurt himself, and at this moment, he suddenly felt that someone was pinched heavily in his waist and eyes, and he couldn't help but scream.

"Hey!"

Shen Yue remembered that Xu Xun was carved out of the same mold as Zhu Houzhao, and he was worried about him in every way, but people insisted on turning evil and good fortune left and right, and finally even broke into such a situation in the capital, so he gave him a moment of hatred, but he didn't expect people to cry out so unhappily. When she thought of the two next door, she raised her throat for a moment.

"Ah, there's someone next door?"

"Nobody, I just saw that a lazy and slippery little guy is sleeping there!" Zhu Houzhao said a sentence extremely smoothly, followed by as if Zhou Qiniang was going to go, and patted his chest and said, "If you don't worry, I will go to the owner of this theater garden under the banner of Gonggong Li, let him drive out this lazy and slippery guy!" ”

Xu Xun bared his teeth when he heard this, and when he saw Shen Yue pouting at him with a smile, implying that he was the lazy and slippery little guy in Zhu Houzhao's mouth, he couldn't help but spread his hands and made a helpless gesture, and when he returned to his seat, he picked up the plate of melon seeds and knocked it slowly. Seeing that the little girl was leaning against the wall and listening for a while, he came back immediately, he was about to hand over the high saucer, but Shen Yue leaned his head over: "Why do you want Xu Jing to design this opera garden to be so non-soundproof, isn't the people next door hearing such movement?" ”

"What are you doing with sound insulation, the opera garden is not a restaurant, when you listen to the play, the curtain has to be pulled up, otherwise you just can't listen to it? If you want to talk about secret matters, if you go to such a place and come to see everyone, you are looking for sin...... I didn't expect the emperor to come by himself, and he brought people here to listen to the play, but he didn't want to think about how uncomfortable Rong Shangyi would be sitting later! ”

As Xu Xun said, as the start time approached, the lobby below was full of people early, and most of them would buy some melons, fruits, snacks, etc. to keep at hand, while most of the boxes upstairs were still empty. It wasn't until the moment when the show was about to start that those gorgeously dressed people were late, among which Zhu Houzhao was next door to Wang Shikun, and next door was Qi Jiliang and Xu Yanche, whom Xu Xun had just met when he got up early. As soon as he slipped to the left, the four or five boxes in front of him were all people he knew, so that Shen Yue had to half-cover his face with the fan that was commonly used by the people below, but his eyes glanced at Xu Xun.

You provoked so many people to come and see the fun!

Everyone in this year can't show up, not to mention that she is only Xu Xun's fiancée!

Also enjoying the same treatment is Zhu Houzhao. Because Rong Shangyi didn't come for a long time, and Zhu Houzhao said that he had "bad deeds", Zhou Qiniang took it for granted that his words were coaxing herself, and she was about to leave in a fit of anger, so the two of them pulled and pulled in the box. Although there was not much movement, Xu Xun could hear it clearly, and he expected that Wang Shikun next door on the other side was not a problem. Seeing that this situation was a little bad, Xu Xun was hesitant whether to put down the curtain, lest Zhou Qiniang pass by here and recognize himself when he walked away, and he saw a group of people walking in front of him. The leader is wearing a round bun, only a golden hairpin is inserted on his head, and although he has a smile on his face, how can he look a little reluctant, who else can there be if it is not Rong Shangyi?

When the main man arrived, Zhu Houzhao naturally pulled Zhou Qiniang forward and sang a big song, and when Rong Shangyi sat down, he didn't care about pulling Zhou Qiniang to stand behind Rong Shangyi, one hand still secretly wanted to drag people's hands, and when he saw that people were thrown away, he also squeezed his eyes innocently, saying that he was not lying at all. Although she didn't have eyes behind her, Rong Shangyi wanted to know what kind of temper Zhu Houzhao had, plus the emperor was standing and sitting by himself, this feeling of sitting on pins and needles really made her sweat profusely on her back unconsciously.

It's easy to wait until the big play starts, and as the song gradually rises, it gradually quiets down, and even Rong Shangyi looks at the actors on the stage acting and singing, and gradually ignores that there is a terrible character standing behind him. Zhu Houzhao glanced at Zhou Qiniang at first, and when he saw that she entered the play in a moment, he couldn't take his eyes off it, he took advantage of the situation and grabbed her hand in the palm of his hand, and then watched the play seriously.

On the other side, Shen Yue looked at the story based on the two of them, and at first there was a sense of estrangement like a passerby, but gradually became addicted to it, and even regretted that he had not come to see such a scene earlier, and wondered if the scene of throwing himself into the water could also taste the ruin of his own time. Therefore, when Zhao was hanged in the three halls on the stage, followed by the raid of Zhao's mansion, she couldn't help but tighten her hands until Xu Xun's soft voice came from front of her.

"Wicked people have their own wicked grinding, if Zhao Qin had known that I was a supreme villain who was more vicious than him, I was afraid that my intestines would be green with regret."

"I have seen that the warbler of Jinling Yushu is dawning, and the flowers of Qinhuai Water Pavilion bloom early, who knows that it is easy to freeze! Seeing him raise the Zhu Tower, seeing him feasting guests, seeing his building collapse......"

Listening to Xu Xun calling himself a wicked person, and listening to these three words spit out from the mouth of the old man who played the Zhao Mansion Music Class, Shen Yue felt a deep throbbing for a while. She couldn't help but reach out and clasp it tightly with Xu Xun's hand stretched out from behind the chair, and only after a while did she whisper, "Xu Xun, thanks to you." ”

Hearing this sentence full of affection, Xu Xun couldn't help but show a deep smile, and clenched her hand even more for a while. The words of mourning the national fortune in "Peach Blossom Fan" are not the most appropriate at this fold, but who told him to feel that those three sentences expressed the injustice in his heart at that time? Even if Tang Yin disagrees, he must add it, not to mention that Tang Yin is full of praise for these lines?

However, at this moment, in a box in the corner, listening to the play that was about to end through the curtain, Li Dongyang took a long breath, but looked at Jiao Fang and said, "What do you say about Dongchang going to Jinling to find out the news?" ”

After all, Jiao Fang has had many years of correspondence with Li Rong, so he said in a deep voice at this time: "Then you need to talk about it? Zhao Qin is self-inflicted, but whether it is Xu Xun's donation of land, or the bitter lord who has successively made trouble with the Guozijian and Shuntianfu, or the Shen family jumping into the river on the Wende Bridge, it should have been a trap set up early in the morning, just to bring down Zhao Qin! Now this Jinling dream not only picked the two cleanly, but made their reputation deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, to say that Jinlingzi's scheming is simply demonic! ”

Li Dongyang did not respond to Jiao Fang's accusation against Xu Xun, and said after a moment of silence: "Don't get involved in this matter again." Shoufu and Mu Zhai still have a lot of complaints about you getting the book of the Criminal Department, not to mention that you also advocate the return of Tang Yin Xu Jinggong's name, Mu Zhai almost didn't say that you are a sycophant. Xu Xun's marriage has been completed, even if someone throws stones on the water, it can't stir up much wind and waves. ”
