Chapter 227: The Play Begins
A messenger eunuch came to deliver the message, saying that the monarch had also heard about the new dim sum in the outer building, and specially called someone to buy it.
If the monarch wants to eat, how can there be any reason to buy it?
Nanxian hurriedly asked someone to fill two boxes of snacks for the little eunuch.
The little eunuch wanted to take out the silver, but was pressed back by Nanxian: "Since the monarch wants to taste it, how can there be such a reason?" ”
The little eunuch smiled: "Okay, I'll tell the monarch when I go back, this is the outer building of the building to honor you." ”
Nanxian also smiled: "In the future, whatever the monarch wants to eat, just give an order, and send it to the palace gate." ”
The little eunuch said: "Then there is Lao Nanxian's son." ”
Yan Chunfeng poked his head out: "Then I will also send a copy to my prince's mansion in the future." ”
Nanxian said gently, "Okay." ”
Seeing off the little eunuch, the four chatted for a while, Murong Xi got up first, Yan Chunfeng also had his own things to do, and the two said goodbye to Tong Yao and Nanxian and left together.
Without the chattering of His Royal Highness the Prince, the building outside the building was much quieter.
When the evening was over, the Shen brothers and sisters came to her.
"The troupe of Man Yuanfang Theater has recently rehearsed a new play, and the reputation is very good, why don't we go together?"
Shen Lanqiu warmly invited.
Since Tong Yao came to the mortal world, she has never heard the opera troupe sing, so she happily went.
Tonight's Manyuanfang Theater is particularly lively, the red lanterns have been hung up early, and the sound of singing and dancing performances can also be heard in the theater.
Tong Yao came to this kind of place for the first time, and asked curiously: "It's so lively here every day?" ”
Shen Yuechen replied: "That's not it, it's just that I heard that someone came to fight tonight, which attracted a lot of people." ”
"What's the fight?" Tong Yao was curious again.
"The new drama in the first two days of the Manyuan Fang Opera House has caused a sensation in the entire imperial capital, and naturally there will be peers who will come to compete.
The so-called fight means that both the beating side and the defending side perform a play, which is voted by the audience present that night, and the winner with the highest number of votes is the winner tonight.
Naturally, the repertoire staged by the winner tonight will also become the most talked about repertoire in the imperial capital in the future. ”
I see, it sounds interesting.
The three of them walked into the Manyuanfang Theater, and the reception guy brought them to the best viewing position, and the table was already prepared with tea and fruit snacks and fine wine.
The three of them were seated.
Tong Yao smiled: "Are you already ready?" ”
Shen Lanqiu was triumphant: "That's not it, a scene like today, if you don't book a place early, you can only watch it at the gate." ”
Moreover, this was specially arranged by my brother, how could I not prepare early?
When the music started, the plays of the full garden Fang Theater appeared, and the surrounding immediately resounded one after another.
"The first to appear is the defending side, and the last to appear is the fighting side." Shen Yuechen introduced on the side.
"In the usual fights, isn't it always the beating side that starts first, and then the defending side?"
Tong Yao said strangely, the rules of the Manyuan Fang Theater are different.
"In the usual martial arts competitions, the fighting party goes first, but the new drama in Man Yuanfang Theater is too popular, so the defending party is allowed to perform on stage first, after all, those who came here tonight, in addition to watching the excitement, most of them are still coming for Man Yuanfang's reputation."
If so, then the requirements for the fighting side are quite high, because it is very likely that after the first scene is performed, many of the audience will leave their seats.
The play officially opened, and the stage was quiet.
