Chapter Thirty-Six: The Show Begins
Before the next day, the officials who had received the invitations arrived and their carriages almost blocked the door of the children's theater. As a last resort, Zhu Cheng had no choice but to send his guards out to maintain order, after all, they were Jinyi guards, and they all had to give some face.
Some officials tried to bring the guards into the theater, but they were stopped by the iron-faced and selfless ticket inspectors.
Gu Dazhang shouted: "I am a dignified member of the ceremonial department, and I don't go with my entourage wherever I go." Why can't you bring it into your little children's theater? ”
The ticket inspector is a eunuch, or has he been assigned to the dead eye of the palace eunuch, and he does everything at a glance. He said to Gu Dazhang: "The Children's Theater admits votes and does not recognize people. Only one person can enter a ticket, either you enter or your entourage enters, choose for yourself. ”
Gu Dazhang looked at the guards, then at himself, and felt a little embarrassed when he had the heart to go in. He suddenly saw Zhu Cheng leading a group of people into through another entrance, and a few of them were still wearing the clothes of the guards, so he shouted: "Why do you favor one over the other, look at that person, why did he go in with the guards?" Well, not just one, I brought two or three. ”
The ticket inspector glanced over there and said, "You can't compare there." ”
Gu Dazhang asked, "Why can't it be compared?" ”
The ticket inspector said casually: "First, that person is the brother of Zhu Cheng, the director of the Children's Theater, and he entered the VIP room, and second, that person is Long Live Today." ”
Gu Dazhang was taken aback, and he didn't care about reasoning with the ticket inspector, so he hurriedly handed over the ticket and entered the theater.
The theater was brightly lit, and the audience was amazed to see that the structure and layout of this children's theater were completely different from that of an ordinary theater. The theater is fan-shaped, the ground is sloping, and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu can't help nodding secretly, this design is good, the audience in the back is not easy to be blocked by the people in front, and there is also the role of concentrating sound. There are no tables in the theater, only rows of chairs, which can't help but make some officials who love tea a little disappointed.
Zhu Cheng jumped on the stage and said loudly: "Audience, welcome to our children's theater, which will become the most advanced theater in Daming in the future." If you want to listen to high-level music and watch a wonderful play, you can watch it here. The water sign at the entrance will clearly state the program of the day, please buy tickets to enter the venue. Today, let's first thank the great emperor of the Ming Dynasty for visiting the theater. ”
Zhu Chengyi's expected thunderous applause did not appear, and Daming may not have this kind of ceremony to welcome the leader. Zhu Cheng and all the staff of the theater took the lead in slapping their own slaps, and the officials present were able to slap their hands.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled slightly, this Zhu Cheng is really good at doing new tricks, but seeing so many officials applauding, he feels that he has won the expectations of the public, and his heart is still very beautiful. He couldn't help but stand up and waved to everyone in the box.
When the officials saw that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was really present at the scene, they also greeted themselves, and their hearts were excited, and the applause rang out again, this time it was really thunderous applause.
Zhu Cheng introduced the officials who came to the children's theater one by one, and everyone realized that all the officials invited by Zhu Cheng were all officials above the fifth grade of the DPRK and China. Some officials couldn't help but secretly congratulate themselves on coming this time, otherwise they wouldn't be able to interject when everyone talked about the children's theater during the chat tomorrow, and they would be so faceless.
Zhu Cheng retreated backstage, the lights of the theater were extinguished one by one, only the stage was still as bright as day. The officials were frightened when they suddenly saw two bright lights shooting from behind them, and threw a few lines of words on the whiteboards on both sides of the stage. On one side is written the precautions for watching the play and the floor plan of the children's theater, especially the location of the toilet, and many officials can't help but nod secretly when they see it. People have three urgencies, especially middle-aged and elderly people, many people have frequent urination and urgency, and they are usually reluctant to participate in the rally, but now they know where the toilet is, and they are finally relieved, and they are not afraid that the play will be too long. On the other side, it is written that Zhu Cheng and Zhu Youzhen will perform a song "Let's Swing the Sculls" for the emperor's brother, wishing the Emperor of the Apocalypse a happy day and eternal health.
Then the curtain opened, Zhu Youzhen and Zhu Cheng were dressed in gorgeous clothes, standing in the center of the stage, and behind them sat a row of musicians holding various musical instruments. Soon the music sounded, and everyone couldn't help but be refreshed. This tune has never been heard before, melodious and melodious, very good. After the music sounded for a while, Zhu Youzhen and Zhu Cheng sang in unison: "Let's swing the oars, and the boat will push away the waves." The beautiful palace is reflected on the water, surrounded by green trees and red walls. The boat was gentle, drifting in the water, and a cool wind was blowing in front of it. Huaxia is dressed to meet the sun, the sun shines on the water, and the fish in the water look at us and quietly listen to us sing happily. The boat was gentle, drifting in the water, and a cool wind was blowing in front of it. After the day's homework, let's have fun, and I ask your dear companion, who will arrange a happy life for us. The boat was gentle, drifting in the water, and a cool wind was blowing in front of it. ”
After the song was sung, everyone was still immersed in the music. There are many officials who have just come back to their senses and scolded in their hearts: "Ministers, don't forget to pat the emperor's ass even when singing." Although there is not a single word in the song to praise the emperor, anyone can see the emperor's benevolence from your happy life. This sycophant is so level, why can't I shoot such a good sycophant? ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was proud in his heart when he heard this, cheered loudly, and slapped his hands excitedly. When the officials saw the emperor applauding, they also applauded.
The musician and Zhu Youzhen exited. Zhu Cheng stood on the stage and said aloud: "This song is to let everyone feel the effect of the stage, if everyone pays attention just now, the lyrics of this song will be projected on the whiteboards on the left and right sides of the stage." When the play begins, all the lyrics, casts, and related content will be projected on the whiteboard. “
Zhu Cheng retreated backstage, the curtain opened again, and a realistic green building appeared on the stage, and everyone was shocked again. These bureaucrats are all masters who have eaten and seen, and they have seen many plays, but they have never seen such a beautiful arrangement. The layout of the plays I used to watch was quite simple, and if I didn't have a little abstract thinking ability, I really couldn't see what was laid out on the stage.
The lights of the whiteboards on both sides of the stage changed, and the name of the play was reflected on the left, and the introduction of the play was reflected on the right.
Gao Panlong couldn't help but stand up, he saw that the whiteboard was clearly played, and the name of the play was "Du Shi Niang's Angry Sinking Treasure Chest"; The introduction on the right is clearly written, the protagonist's name is Li Wentong, and his father is Li Sancai. Only then did he understand that Zhu Cheng really had bad intentions for inviting them to watch the play.
The officials in the back saw that there was a person in front of him standing up to block his vision, and he didn't know who he was, so he said angrily: "Do you know how to read, didn't you see the "Attention to Watching the Drama" just shown?" You stood up and stopped us from watching the show. ”
Gao Panlong roared angrily: "Zhu Cheng, you villain, you are here again to confuse the public. ”
Zhu Cheng snapped his fingers, and the two brocade guards took Gao Panlong out. Gao Panlong is the leader of the Donglin Party, and he originally thought that if he was put out, all the Donglin Party officials would follow. However, he was disappointed, and the officials he was now were looking at him like fools, and then he realized that he was so wrong.
These officials can climb to the high position of the fifth grade, they are all human spirits, Zhu Cheng does not report to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, dare to stage this play? The Emperor of the Apocalypse is using this play to announce a message to officials, and he doesn't like Li Sancai very much. Although the officials accepted bribes from Li Sancai, there was no need to take his life for him, so when everyone saw the name of the play, their hearts were already bright, and they would not come out. Besides, the song Zhu Cheng sang just now is really good, although the following play has not yet started, but it can already be seen from the set, it will definitely be very exciting, it is not a pity to miss such a wonderful scene.
The official's guess was really correct, because what was sung on stage was not Kunqu Opera, but Yue Opera, or Yue Opera adapted by Zhu Cheng. Kunqu opera is indeed elegant, but the officials are already elegant enough when they go to the court and meet guests, and they want to be relaxed when they watch the play, they had no choice before, why should they wronged themselves now and pretend to be elegant? So, as soon as they saw the actor appear, they drank a jackpot. was so frightened that the actor who played Du Shi Niang was clever, peeking at his own outfit to see if there was any mistake.
Besides, Gao Panlong waited outside the children's theater for a long time, and he didn't see half of his colleagues come out, knowing that he was a big ugly person again, and he was angry in his heart.
When the entourage saw the master come out, he asked with concern: "Master, after the play, is it exciting?" ”
Gao Panlong had nowhere to come out of the evil fire in his belly, and when he saw the entourage asking, he kicked him down with one kick and said, "Call you to talk more, tell you to talk more." ”
The retinue got up, angry in their hearts, already secretly betrayed. He followed Gao Panlong to usher in the send-off, knew many secrets of the Donglin Party, and later defected to Wei Zhongxian, and made great efforts to exterminate the Donglin Party.
Gao Panlong returned home, the more he thought about it, the more he hated, and said in his heart: "Small is not a gentleman, no poison is not a husband." Zhu Cheng, you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. ”
Gao Panlong spread out the paper and put it on the table, ready to write a note to impeach Zhu Cheng.
What kind of crime should I fabricate? Gao Panlong thought about it again and again, he wanted to find a crime that was enough to make Zhu Cheng's head fall to the ground.
Suddenly, he slapped his thigh, thinking of a detail today, once this crime reaches heaven, Zhu Cheng will have to shed his skin if he doesn't die.
He brushed and wrote down the recital, and his hands trembled a little because he was so excited. He said in his heart: "Zhu Cheng, Zhu Cheng, you make me lose face, I will let you die." ”
