Chapter 197: Enjoying the Show
There were two people taking the lead, and the other concubines also joined in the flattery, and the old queen mother was happy, and couldn't help nodding and said: "Since everyone is thinking about this play, Bixi, you go to the front and tell the emperor, and say that the mourning family invited him to come to the play in the afternoon. Before the words fell, everyone laughed again.
Fu Qiuning thought to herself, it seems that the relationship between the queen mother and the emperor is very good, alas! This biological mother and son are really harmonious. Suddenly, the Queen Mother said again: "Yes, let the two eunuchs go to the Yasukuni Mansion again, and say the words of mourning for the family, this afternoon is the time for their daughter-in-law to show their talents, let them also come over to listen to this half of the play." Also, several princes and princesses also went to scream. ”
Prince Lie's mother smiled and said: "The Queen Mother is really thoughtful, anyone can forget it, but Prince Rong don't forget, who doesn't know that Prince Rong is the most competitive, and now this is still a play rehearsed by her brother and daughter-in-law, if you don't invite her, you don't know how to mutter behind your back." ”
Fu Qiuning thought to herself that this concubine was really not a thing, she was simply the all-pervasive Prince and Princess Heirong. She has the heart to help distinguish the two sentences, but she feels that her identity is really a little lowly in this room, and besides, sometimes it is better to fight than not to fight, is the Queen Mother not counting in her heart? Therefore, there was no speech, just bowed his head and sat quietly, listening to the Queen Mother's punishment.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother saw that Fu Qiuning was still sitting quietly, without the slightest words, and couldn't help nodding in her heart, secretly saying that the King of Zhenjiang was just the credit of fighting with the emperor in the early years, and it was passed on to this generation, looking at the father and son, but she didn't expect to be able to raise such a daughter, yes, I heard Feng Ju say that this child was exiled to Zhuangzi because she was not treated well with her mother, and was affected by her mother, so that she could have this adventure, and then she was brought back in order to marry her to Feng Ju.
Alas! Now it seems that this is really their own chance, the father and son have eyes and don't know gold and jade, but they are cheaper than Fengju.
Just thinking about it, I saw Fu Qiuning stand up and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, since it is going to be rehearsed in the afternoon, the concubines still have to go to see it, so that they can get familiar with the stage and singing, and strive to perform perfectly in the afternoon, so as to live up to it..." Before he finished speaking, he heard the Queen Mother smile and said: "Okay, okay, rehearsal for so many days, you have worked hard enough, what else are you going to see?" There won't be any major problems left and right, so I'll stay here at noon today to have a meal with the mourning family, and then take a nap, and when the will comes down from time to time, you can just pull the troupe over. (Just to Bayi Chinese.)"
One sentence made everyone laugh again, and Fu Qiuning had no choice but to respond. At noon, she accompanied the Queen Mother to have a royal meal, she didn't dare to really take a nap, although she was really a little drowsy, but she also came to Bilianxie, at that time, those singing and dancing girls knew the news that they were going to rehearse this part of the play in the afternoon, and they couldn't help but be excited, and the infected Fu Qiuning also lost sleep, and a group of people waited for the opera to be rehearsed again, and then they had a will to come down and order them to go to Tianxianglou to perform.
Of course, Fu Qiuning is familiar with the name Tianxianglou, where Qin Keqing was really buried in "Dream of Red Mansions". It's just that I didn't expect that the place to watch and act in this palace is called Tianxianglou, because together with Lin Sile, I led many female musicians to Tianxianglou, only to see that the two floors of the theater were already full of people. She was going to comfort these singing and dancing girls, thinking that this was their first time singing, and they were inevitably nervous, but although these people were singing for the first time, they didn't know how many songs and dances they had performed before the royal car, and they were already very proficient.
The new costumes for the performance have just been changed here, Fu Qiuning looked at it, the heart is ancient in the end, the wisdom of the working people does not know how many times better than modern people, there is no advanced machine, but this costume is more beautiful than the modern one, if this is staged on stage, I don't know how eye-catching the scene of the seven fairies will be at the beginning.
Just thinking about it, I saw a eunuch come over with a smile and said, "Madam, the queen mother and the emperor asked you to go over to watch the play, saying that you have worked hard these days. Just go to Bayi Chinese ~ Mrs. Please. ”
Fu Qiuning nodded, and said a few more words to Lin Sile, and then came to the seat of the Queen Mother. After seeing it, the emperor asked her to calm down, and said with a smile: "Your husband has been gone for a few days, and I have a letter from my son before, and I am preparing some things at the border, everything is safe, you just have to rehearse here with confidence." Presumably, when he comes back, this opera will be finished, and then you and your wife will be the pillars of my Daning Dynasty, yes, this is really a good match. ”
The emperor actually said that a woman is a pillar of talent, although she is following Jin Fengju, but this is not easy. Fu Qiuning hurriedly thanked her, and then listened to the Queen Mother's gentle words: "Your mother-in-law and they are all over there, because you have been going out early and returning late for so many days, so you have brought your four children under your knees." Go and sit down. ”
Fu Qiuning agreed, and couldn't help but feel a little gloomy in her heart, why didn't she let my mother come over? I'm her daughter, and since I'm rehearsing the play today, shouldn't I be the first to watch it? It's just that although he is not fair, he also knows in his heart that the status of the Yu Luo clan is too low, and he is not qualified to come to the palace to see the driver, so he can only helplessly slander a few words in his heart.
However, when she saw Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zhenyi, she was still very happy, she didn't say a few words to the children for so many days, basically she had to be busy with some things after she went back, and when she was done, the children went to sleep. Therefore, she was really affectionate at this time, and made a few jokes with Mrs. Jin, Xu felt that she was now bright, and even Mrs. Jiang said a few words to her kindly, and she no longer had the cold eyebrows she used to have.
Seeing that it was about to be time, the emperor had already ordered the play, but when he saw Prince Rong and Princess Jin Yanqiu beckoning to her, Fu Qiuning hurried over, but saw that she only pursed her mouth and smiled, and then whispered: "There is such a good talent, but it is only revealed at this time, Fu Qiuning, Fu Qiuning, you are a good example, and I will settle accounts with you when I go back." ”
Fu Qiuning was startled, and hurriedly looked left and right, and saw that the prelude music had already sounded, and everyone was concentrated on the stage. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly whispered: "The princess is cautious, there are many people in the palace, and there is something to say when you go back." After speaking, he retreated to Mrs. Jiang's side. Here Jin Yanqiu frowned, then his expression turned grim, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, obviously he had roughly understood why Fu Qiuning had such words.
"The years of the heavenly palace are too bleak, the morning and twilight are a few clouds, the eldest sister often says that the world is good, and the male cultivator and the female weave time ......"
This paragraph is the beginning of Huangmei Opera "Tianxian Pei", the singer who plays the seventh girl on the stage is really beautiful like a flower, quite a bit of fairy and jade bones, this opening attracted everyone's hearts and minds, and the music turned into a slightly more cheerful: "Why don't I go and find the eldest sister, she can be the master and bear it." After that, applause rang out like thunder.
Then the seven women came on the stage together, and everyone saw that the clothes were flying and embroidered brilliantly, which was as dazzling as a butterfly wearing flowers, and the music was all in a very cheerful tone, so that the faces of the people watching the play were all smiles.
"The fisherman lives in the middle of the water, and the reeds on both sides of the bank are like walls, and the boat is stretched out to cast nets, and a net of fish and shrimp and a net of grain ......"
Mrs. Jin leaned in front of Fu Qiuning and said with a smile: "This sings well, with these instruments, it is better than your cappella." While speaking, Fu Qiuning couldn't help but look ahead, only to see that the emperor and the queen mother were also nodding, occasionally getting together to say a few words, also with smiles on their faces, while the others were shaking their heads, as if the whole person was immersed in this opera.
"The glow of the sun is auspicious, and the clouds are open, fluttering down to earth. I don't love the fairy years, I would like to be a mandarin duck and fly ...... wings"
With the light dance of the seven fairies, the cheerful rhythm sounded again, and then the beauty on the stage closed her water sleeves, and her steps slowly stopped, looking into the distance.
And the music slowly stopped.
Fu Qiuning stood up, came to the emperor and the queen mother and knelt down and said: "The Empress Dowager and the emperor, because of the short time, only the rehearsal is here, and it will take some time to complete the rehearsal. What do the Queen Mother and the Emperor think? ”
What else could this be? If it weren't for Fu Qiuning to speak, everyone would still be immersed in the play. For a while, not only the emperor and the queen mother nodded and praised, but everyone else also applauded, and they kept talking about each other. Here, the emperor and the queen mother really praised Fu Qiuning again. Because he was happy, the emperor also deliberately left the courtiers and ladies who were watching the play and gave a royal banquet, and everyone dispersed in the evening.
Fu Qiuning was tired for so many days, and he could finally take a breath, and he returned to Fengyalou to rest. Seeing her tired and emaciated face, Yu Shi and Luo couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and couldn't help laughing: "If the little marquis comes back and sees it, maybe he will be more distressed." "Because I didn't bother her.
This sleep until the next morning did not get up, Fu Qiuning and Yu's Luo and Jin Zangfeng brothers and sisters talked, after a while, I saw Jin Zhenyi and Jin Xiunan also dangled in, Jin Zhenyi didn't care that these people around him were there, so he came to Fu Qiuning and said with a grin: "Auntie, you have made such a great contribution now, even the emperor and the queen mother praise you like that, when my father comes back, you can always intercede in front of him, let's go to visit my mother, right?" ”
Fu Qiuning looked at him with a smile, she was a cautious and indifferent person, so she didn't like Jin Zhenyi's reckless and arrogant temperament before. However, this guy slowly restrained a lot of arrogance in Fengya Building, and always took Aunt Xu to heart, she felt that no matter what, it was rare for a child from a big family to be so affectionate and righteous. Therefore, he said with a pleasant face: "This is natural, your father has not come back yet, and it is almost dog days at this time, and there is still more than a month before the beginning of autumn, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is even farther away, so you can wait for a while." ”
When Jin Zhenyi heard her say this, he was also happy in his heart. remembered that when my mother left, she hugged herself and her sister and cried bitterly, only saying that I was afraid that there would be no chance to meet in this life. Tell the two of them to be careful and study hard, maybe when they grow up, mother and son will have a chance to reunite, otherwise she has no hope at all. Thinking that it was less than a year ago, he and his sister could go to surprise their mothers, and I couldn't help but feel a feeling of "I've grown up, I'm a man".
