Chapter 9: Cold Memories
Shen Jinqiao took his two younger sisters back to the Hou Mansion in a carriage, and when they got off, he didn't get off.
"Mingzhu, go to the theater on East Street."
The carriage slowly headed down East Street and stopped at the door of a theater building.
There are many dignitaries and nobles on East Street, and there are gorgeous clothes everywhere, Shen Jinqiao can wear a brocade dress to enter the palace to meet him, and it will not be too abrupt to walk on this street.
Especially the largest theater building on this East Street--- Liufang Pavilion, the dramas here are the most famous corners in this Shengjing, and they are very sought after by the princes and nobles, and it is not difficult to see the prince and the prince here, so there is nothing strange about it.
Liufang Pavilion is on the third floor, the first floor can be entered by ordinary people, the second floor is a partitioned private room, which requires more silver to go up, and the third floor is an independent box, most of which have been wrapped by the nobles of the show all year round, even if no one comes, they will not let others in.
Shen Jinqiao took Yuzhu directly to the third floor, reported a name and was taken to the room, Pingnanhou Mansion has no private room here, and no one is really so good, and even if you want to charter a side room, it is not so easy, there are so many rooms, but it is not so easy to grab it.
Shen Jinqiao went to the wing room, the wing room was surrounded on three sides, only the side facing the stage was empty, with a bead curtain partition, and it was not easy for people outside to see it, but the people above could see the picture on the stage clearly.
At this moment, the stage is singing, the play is a man and a woman, the woman is dressed as a rich girl, and the man is a scholar.
Yuzhu handed the play list to Shen Jinqiao, this play is called a flower hairpin.
It is about a rainy day, the rich lady saw the scholar in the rain, kindly gave him an umbrella, the scholar was grateful, and waited until the next meeting, he returned the umbrella to the rich lady, and by the way gave him a wooden hairpin carved by himself.
Then naturally, the two have feelings for each other, affection, passing books with leaves, sustenance lovesickness, the two have two hearts, but the rich lady has a childhood sweetheart's fiancΓ©.
The scholar loved the young lady, but he was too poor and afraid that the rich lady would suffer with him, so he retreated.
The rich lady was forced to marry her childhood sweetheart but was abused, and finally died, the scholar gave up the pen to become a hairpin maker in order to make a living, he made a unique hairpin for the rich lady, but has not been able to send it out.
Knowing that the rich lady was dead, he killed the rich lady's husband, went to her grave himself, and pierced the hairpin into the heart, and the blood dyed the hairpin bright red, red over the most dazzling jewels.
Remorse, guilt, pain, love but can't, martyrdom for love, poignant to the extreme.
Shen Jinqiao: "......"
There is a feeling of not knowing what to say.
"Woooooooooo......oo It's so touching. β
Turning her head to look, Yuzhu, the girl pulled the veil and cried sadly, it turned out that the stage had reached the last scene, and the scholar committed suicide for love, infatuated and poignant.
"Good!"
"Room No. 9 is rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."
"Room No. 3 will be rewarded with thirty taels of gold."
β......β
Listening to the reaction from the outside, it is clear that this poignant story is very popular.
After a while, the door of the wing room was opened, and the person who walked in was the person who had just played the scholar on the stage, with clear and handsome eyebrows, plus this appearance, a handsome young man who was alive, but who knows, this is actually a real eldest lady?
Miss Leng Jiayan Leng Yi, the third-ranked beauty in Shengjing, the niece of Concubine Leng Guifei, a character with more talent than Shen Jinqiao, who would have thought that she would disguise herself as a man and sing in this theater.
Leng Yiren is as the name suggests, very cold.
Cold and unique, Ling Shuang Aomei, a cold face, doesn't like to laugh, looks good, but always rejects people thousands of miles away.
In addition to the thousands of expressions she has when she sings, she has such a face when she gets off the stage, she feels frozen when she looks at it, and she feels cold around her when she is with her.
Who would have thought that with such a lump of ice, he could write such a poignant and poignant playbook?
Probably this contrast is too great, so Leng Yi has been singing here for three or four years, and he was stunned that he was not discovered by the Leng family, and it was also amazing.
I haven't seen her for two years, I looked Shen Jinqiao up and down to make sure that there was nothing wrong with her, and asked, "New play, what do you think?" β
Shen Jinqiao: "...... It's good, I think everyone likes it. β
"I'm asking you, what's the matter with other people?" Leng Yi didn't accept Shen Jinqiao's euphemism at all,
Shen Jinqiao spread his hands: "I don't feel it, I haven't liked anyone, I don't understand that feeling, I don't feel the same way." β
Obviously, it was superfluous to ask Shen Jinqiao such a question, and Leng Yi skipped directly: "Just came out of the palace?" β
Shen Jinqiao nodded: "Well, go and meet the concubine." β
"What did she say?" In Leng Yi's tone, he didn't respect the aunt of the concubine Niangniang so much.
"I didn't say anything, I asked about my affairs in Qingshan City, and I pulled the family life."
Leng Yi looked at her suspiciously: "Then do you know what she asked you to do?" β
Shen Jinqiao raised his eyebrows: "Do you have something to say?" β
Leng Yi snorted lightly, as if she was dissatisfied with Shen Jinqiao's vagueness: "I don't believe you don't understand, if she passes you on in the future, I will go with you, and I can't let her bully you." β
This tone, this tone, plus this dress.
Shen Jinqiao covered his heart: "Sister Yi, if you are a son, I may like you." β
Leng Yi stared at her with disgust: "Go to the side, come and be practical." β
Tsk, what a good iceberg beauty, it's so cheesy to open your mouth, it's really ruining the beauty.
Shen Jinqiao immediately asked Yuzhu to take out the box, a complete set of singing heads, Shen Jinqiao personally made it, absolutely exquisite and beautiful.
These things obviously matched Leng Yi's appetite, and his eyes brightened up by two degrees, and then he walked away with the box in his hand......
How do other people's little sisters get along together?
Pinch handkerchiefs, sit together, arm in arm, chat about the latest interesting things, gossip about other people, and what about them?
Leng Yi spoke like hailstones, in a word, a few hailstones fell, after speaking, he took something, turned around and left, quite ruthless.
Shen Jinqiao: "......" So, how did they see that she had a good relationship with Leng Yi? Why didn't she even know it herself?
