Chapter 263: Drama Troupe
Zhou Chengkun thought about it, and went back obediently, but after a few days, he brought a gift to thank Qian Jun, it turned out that the eldest princess's reward was very rich, Zhou Chengkun not only did not lose money, but also made a lot of money, and now, the money in his hand is no problem to raise seven or eight opera troupes.
"Okay, okay, raise a few more, seven or eight troupes will be too much. You have to know that when you enter the capital, people like you, don't want to keep good things in your hands, in addition to the eldest princess, there is also the second son, the wolf has more meat and less meat, it is not enough for them to fight for at all, and it is useless to raise as much as you want. ”
"Then you still want me to raise a drama troupe?"
"Why are you so stupid? Why do you go if you don't have a drama troupe? If you don't raise a drama troupe, others will have to support you, you watch it, the eldest princess is tired of watching this drama, and your business will come. ”
"So what should I do?"
"There are a lot of poor people in the capital who can't pass the exam, you can also raise a few people like that, in case the princess wants a new play, you can rehearse one for her, haven't you always felt that you don't make as much money as your daughter-in-law? I promise you that you will be very rich in the future. ”
Zhou Chengkun is not a well-behaved literati, Qian Jun's proposal is very much in line with his thoughts, he is happy again, and he runs back to work.
A few days later, Zhou Danniang hurriedly came to Wen Jin: "Concubine Shizi, my enemy, just know the stories of those wind and snow, in case the eldest princess learns badly, our family's head is not enough to cut off, I persuaded him, he still didn't listen, saying that the opera is these contents, and no one will watch it if it doesn't go through the snow." ”
Wen Jin really regretted letting their husband and wife come over, this Zhou Chengkun is really troublesome.
At night, she complained in front of Qian Jun, but Qian Jun just smiled and comforted: "Anyway, you are idle, it is better to help them." ”
It turned out that Qian Jun saw that Wen Jin was busy, her life was full, her spirit was full and excited, she had nothing to do, and everyone was like a soulless child, this was deliberately looking for her trouble, and now the house was up and down, watching their husband and wife idle, and those people were cramping in their stomachs with jealousy, he really didn't want Wen Jin to become the target of public criticism again.
Knowing her husband's mind and knowing her own situation, Wen Jin thought about it and copied "Mulan" from her previous life for half a month.
Zhou Danniang took the script, read it roughly, and was completely fascinated, she muttered: "There are still such strange women in the world, why didn't I know about martial arts back then?" ”
Wen Jin chuckled: "You are stupid, can the old bustard invite such a master for you?" Your wings are stiff, what if she can't control it? ”
"Oh!" Thinking of the hellish days in the past, the smile on Zhou Danniang's face receded, and she was silent for a while, "I want to invite a female master and let my daughter practice martial arts." ”
"You, okay, do you really want your baby daughter to be Mulan?"
"At least I'm not bullied, I don't dare to expect my daughter to marry a good man like Shizi."
Wen Jin was thoughtful, and when he got up the next day, he picked up the martial arts that had not been practiced.
Zhou Chengkun got the book of "Mulan", if he got the treasure, he was revising and polishing at home, and composing music, and he was busy for several months, Zhou Danniang thanked Wen Jin again and again, and went all out to prepare for the new shop and new workshop.
Besides, the eldest princess, since she had a troupe, she was so happy that she got carried away, and she asked her father to bring her into the palace and sang to the queen a few times, the weather was hot, and the queen mother's body eased up again, and the eldest princess promised that when it was hotter, she would bring the troupe to the imperial grandmother to enjoy.
The people in the troupe had to hang their voices in the morning, in order not to make noise to others, they got up clearly, ran out of the city, and practiced singing by the moat, this day the eldest princess slept enough, and before she finished freshening up, the housekeeper's mother hurried in: "Princess Niangniang, someone, someone snatched Liu Qing away." "Liu Qing is the Tsing Yi who sang Danniang, and she is the princess's favorite actor.
"Who is so bold and dead, who is it?"
"I don't know, dressed in black, I drove a carriage over, and I ran away when I robbed someone, but we didn't catch up here, and we were injured two."
"Take my post to the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and if you can't find anyone, let them all get out of me, give up their seats, and give them to capable people."
"Yes!"
The princess's mansion made the whole capital upside down, but Prince Ren's mansion was relatively peaceful, only people came to patrol the door, but they didn't have the courage to knock on the door. At night, Wen Jin and Qian Jun both fell asleep, and the palace made a commotion - the second master Qian Xuan had an accident.
Qian Xuan was carried back, it turned out that he spent money to rob Liu Qing, and arranged a new house in a village outside the city, invited a few fox friends and dog friends, and prepared to "flower candles in the cave room" at night, but was found by the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, who wanted to bring people back, he naturally did not agree, did not agree with each other, the two sides fought, in the scuffle, his leg was broken, the other party robbed someone, left a mess, and walked away.
In the middle of the night, Prince Ren's Mansion invited the imperial doctor again, and he was crying and screaming, and half of the capital was not at peace.
The next day, Prince Ren angrily went to find trouble with the Governor of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Eastern City Governor, but he was confused: "We didn't find the drama of the princess's mansion, and we don't know how to face the princess's thunderous anger today, how can there be any injury to the second prince of your mansion?" ”
"Don't try to quibble."
"Lord Wang, good Lord Wang, I swear, okay? If my subordinates hurt the second son of the Prince's Mansion, then let me thunder five times a day, and I won't die well! ”
Seeing that he didn't look like a hypocrisy, Prince Ren couldn't force him for a while, so he only asked, "Who injured my son?" ”
The governor of the Dongcheng Terracotta Division frowned and thought about it, and said tentatively: "Did your prince say what the other party is?" Could it be that someone from the Princess's Mansion has found it? They are taking our pretenses? ”
Prince Ren had no choice but to retreat, and it was difficult to find a theory in the princess's mansion, so he returned home stupidly.
Princess Ren listened to the man's words and cried: "Xuan'er's leg was broken for nothing? You're an uncle, can't you scold a few princesses? ”
Prince Ren frowned: "Confused, Xuan'er is at fault first, even in front of the emperor, I didn't pay attention to it, what should I say if you let me go to the princess's mansion?" ”
Princess Ren couldn't accept the fact that she was dumb and lost, and sent Jing's mother to the princess's mansion to test it, Jing's mother went hard-headed and came back: "Princess, the people in the princess's mansion said that they didn't find the farm where the second master was located at all, and a few people in black sent the play back last night." ”
"Who are those men in black?"
"I don't know."
Prince Ren cried and cried, staying in front of his son's bed, and Prince Ren urged the imperial doctor every day to be sure to heal his son's leg.
But no one dared to say this to Qian Xuan, this second ancestor, lying on the bed, did not forget to toss people, the little servants who served were unlucky to die, and even Prince Ren was scolded several times.
Things have come to this point, and they are still not over, the Zhou family, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and proposed to withdraw from the family - the dowry of Prince Ren's mansion has been issued, but he suddenly proposed to postpone the marriage, even if the Zhou family is in decline, but it is also a thin camel bigger than a horse, how can this face be lost?
According to custom, the salute is not more than a month, how can there be a dowry but put forward the excuse of postponing the marriage date and not marrying? Although Prince Ren's Mansion said that his son was injured, he thought it was a pretext and didn't believe it - if he was injured, he could get married, and he could postpone the round house for a while.
Prince Ren had never been slapped in the face like this, he was so angry that he fainted to the ground, he didn't want to think about it, Qian Xuan didn't allow him to hold a wedding, so he wouldn't do it, is there a problem with his father? is even more problematic with his own personality.
Both sides entered the palace to complain to the emperor, who knew that the queen mother's body suddenly recurred in the past few days, and the emperor was so sad that he was very impatient when he saw such a bad thing and came to him, and he couldn't care about the face of Prince Ren's uncle, so he lowered his face and said angrily: "Since the dowry has been given and the wedding date has been set, how can it be postponed?" If you are so treacherous, how can others be in-laws with you? Don't say that the Zhou family wants to withdraw from their relatives, they will have to withdraw from their relatives if they are replaced! After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.
The Zhou family was ordered to retreat, Prince Ren was helpless, he had never suffered such a big loss, he was so angry that he lay down on the bed, weak - he had a heart attack, Prince Ren was still unconscious, and he still didn't nag or pretended to cry every day, Prince Ren finally couldn't bear it anymore, and lived in the courtyard of Concubine Yang, and no one would see him.
Concubine Yang has never been so angry, even the princess has to look at her face, otherwise, take the opportunity to blow the wind to the princess, and the princess will have to walk around without eating.
Concubine Dong was anxious, the princess was full of sons, and she couldn't care about being jealous, but she was so idle that she was idle, and every day when she opened her eyes, she was thinking about how to get in front of the prince and how to call the prince to her yard.
Concubine Yang had never dared to fight with Concubine Dong before, but this time with the support of the prince, her courage increased, and she was stopped at the door, not allowing Concubine Dong to come in, Concubine Dong used to speak loudly at the door, hoping to call the man out, but Prince Ren just slept and was very angry when he was awakened, and sent a little girl out to reprimand Concubine Dong. Concubine Dong was sad, she couldn't help but tears on the spot, Prince Ren has always been kind to women, so openly reprimanded, since entering Prince Ren's mansion, this is the first time, Concubine Dong felt that everyone in the mansion seemed to have seen it, and they were laughing at her, and from then on, they would look down on her, and suddenly felt dizzy and dizzy, and almost fainted. Concubine Yang heard the report of the next person, she was so happy in her heart, she has been suppressed by Concubine Dong, and she has not been so relieved, after thinking about it, she also ran out pretending to comfort Concubine Dong: "Sister, the prince has a very big temper recently, I don't know how much I have suffered, don't be sad, the prince will be well in a few days, I will persuade him to see you again." ”
