Chapter 0479 - Change of Position
Just sang two sentences, Mrs. Yingguo applauded loudly, she is an old drama fan, and if Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen does not ascend the throne as the emperor, she is actually an ordinary old woman, because of the relationship of identity, their family's background is very low, which is also Emperor Wanli has always been willing to let King Fu inherit the treasure! The reason why Emperor Taichang has not been paid much attention to. Compared with Zhu Youxiao, Emperor Taichang paid less attention to Zhu Youzhen. So Mrs. Yingguo did not live a few days of wealth. The troupe in this palace is naturally not comparable to the folk.
Watching the scenes on the stage gradually become exciting, Mrs. Yingguo couldn't close her mouth happily, although she didn't understand it very well.
Across the emperor, Yuan Guifei whispered for Mrs. Yingguo, ""The Peony Pavilion, is one of the masterpieces of my dynasty Tang Xianzu, the full name is "The Peony Pavilion Soul Resurrection", that is, "The Soul Resurrection Record", also known as "The Dream of the Soul Return" or "The Dream of the Peony Pavilion", the legendary script, two volumes, fifty-five outs, according to the Ming novel "Du Liniang Mu Se Resurrection of the Soul", is my representative work of the southern song. A total of 55 plays, describing the love story of Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei. It is called "Four Dreams of Linchuan" along with Tang Xianzu's other three works. ”
Mrs. Yingguo obviously liked Yuan Guifei very much, and smiled hehe, "Okay, Concubine Yuan really knows a lot, and she looks good." Emperor, Concubine Yuan is really good, the old woman just likes Concubine Yuan. ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen sighed lightly, originally he had a good feeling for Concubine Yuan, but he was blown by his grandmother all day long, but it was not as good as before.
Zhou Ke'er glanced at the emperor and saw that the emperor was not very focused. Naturally, he paid attention to the old lady, and explained softly, "There are often performances on the stage, such as "Troubled Learning", "Garden", "Dream", "Dream", "Photo", "Leaving the Soul", "Picking Up Paintings and Calling Paintings", "Judgment", "Tryst", "Oath", "Soul" and so on.
Tang Xianzu was deposed and returned home in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, and he was determined to pursue a career and work hard to end his life. The four legendary miscellaneous dramas in his life are more famous, "The Peony Pavilion", "The Story of Nanke", "The Story of the Purple Hairpin", "The Story of Handan" (also known as the "Four Dreams of Linchuan"), among them, "The Peony Pavilion" is the most famous, and he himself is also very proud, once said: "Four dreams in a lifetime." The only place to be proud is the peony. Shen Defu said: "Tang Yi is still "Dream of the Peony Pavilion". The family heirloom recited, several times the price of "West Chamber" was reduced. ””
Yuan Guifei saw that Empress Zhou had the intention of competing with herself, so she didn't dare to be stronger, and smiled slightly. "It's still the queen who understands more. I've only scratched the surface. ”
Mrs. Yingguo held Empress Zhou's hand. "Well, I will come to the palace more often in the future to watch the play, and you two will accompany the old woman."
"The Peony Pavilion" is Tang Xianzu's masterpiece. It is also a masterpiece of romanticism in the history of Chinese opera. The love story of Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei's life and death is full of romantic ideals of pursuing personal happiness, calling for the emancipation of individuality, and opposing the feudal system. Du Liniang is one of the most moving images of women in classical Chinese literature after Cui Yingying, through the love marriage between Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei, shouting out the call for individual liberation, freedom of love, and marital autonomy, and exposing the destruction of feudal etiquette on people's happy life and beautiful ideals. "The Peony Pavilion" is known for its beautiful literary dictionary, Bin Bai Rao is witty, and the lyrics use both the pungent and turbulent northern songs and the beautiful southern words. Ming Lu Tiancheng called it "thrilling, and ingenious, no realm is new, it is really eternal!" ”
Tang Xianzu said in the play "Inscription": "If you are like Du Liniang, you can be said to have a lover's ear." I don't know what to do, and I go deep. The living can die, and the dead can live. Those who are born and cannot be resurrected, and those who die and cannot be resurrected are not lovely. "Reading "The Peony Pavilion", enjoying the feast of words, the love of life and death through time and space, without the help of modern technology, lingering beauty, and love throughout the vast world, come from all over the world.
Although Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen doesn't like to watch this kind of old drama very much, he has to accompany it, this is what he must endure as an emperor, not to say that if you don't like it, you can't watch it, how can Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, who is used to watching movies and television, be so babbling and procrastinating? But after watching it for a long time, I also watched it, and I was sad by the plot in the play, thinking that I had a deep love for Queen Zhang Yan of Yi'an, but I couldn't even meet, I even wanted to say a word, and I didn't even want to see her up close.
No matter what kind of drama it is, love is always the main theme, and works of art revolve around love and are sublimated.
Because it was the Chinese New Year, this trip to the garden was not very sad, but the old lady's eyes were red, and she applauded vigorously and asked someone to give a reward.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen Great Khan, looking at the old lady like a star-chasing clan in later generations, but you are a little old, right?
I haven't experienced this kind of scene for a long time, and I am a little tired, not because others are tired, but because such a lengthy drama singing voice is really not on the same level as the current state of mind of Emperor Zhu Youzhen of Chongzhen. Thinking about the situation of internal and external troubles in the Ming Dynasty, the anti-people behind him are getting bigger and bigger! The entire local officialdom has lost control, and Jiannu is still running rampant! There is a tendency to speed up and increase the action! How could he really calm down?
"Emperor, how good is the singing? You can tip some too. Mrs. Yingguo wiped her tears and said to Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian.
The emperor sighed and smiled faintly, "Xu Guowei, reward, grandmother, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, what are you crying about?" ”
Mrs. Yingguo also smiled, "I'm happy, in fact, I didn't listen too much, I'm unspeakably happy, think about it, now who dares to look down on my old lady, who dares to look down on your uncle?" It's okay, it's okay, the old woman is happy. ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen couldn't help sweating again, it seems that he also underestimated the old lady, life is like a play, drama is like life, in fact, everyone who watches a play is watching themselves!
Xu Guowei smiled flatteringly, "If you want me to say, let's Daming, the one who knows the most about drama belongs to Mrs. Tai." ”
Mrs. Ying Guotai looked back at Xu Guowei who was standing beside the emperor, smiled and squinted, "I can speak, Your Majesty, I will also reward Xu Guowei." ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen felt funny and nodded, "Rewarded." ”
Yuan Guifei and Queen Zhou couldn't help but glance at Xu Guowei, and secretly praised him for being a good shot.
Xu Guowei saw that the timing was good, and with the opportunity to applaud, he whispered in the old lady's ear, "Mrs. Tai, I heard Empress Yi'an say just now that you are the most kind, and I want to say hello to you." (To be continued......)
