The next day, the weather was fine and windless. Wu Yong went out early in the morning to accompany the Son of Heaven to study. The courtyard of the Hou Mansion, Wu Yong's residence.

The hall that was not very spacious was crowded with people, including several young ladies from the Houhou Mansion, as well as their maidservants, and they didn't know where they heard the wind.

After Uncle Zhao learned their identities, he said with a wry smile: "So that a few nobles can know that this shadow puppet show can only be performed at night, and it really can't be seen during the day." Then he saw that everyone was a little lost, so he handed over the manuscript of the story that Wu Yong had left him, and said: "This is a story written by Xiao Langjun, and the shadow puppet show performed at night is rehearsed according to this, if the nobles like it, they can have a sneak peek." ”

"Yikes! Brother Yong can still write his own story, so let's take a good look. Next, on the seats in the hall, several young ladies from the Houfu Mansion looked at the story with relish on each page.

"Xu Sheng, Mingxuan, was also from Yuhang in ancient times. Be humble and read poetry books. The family is poor, and he is an apprentice in a pharmacy. Qingming worship ancestors, boating on the West Lake, when it rains, enter the cabin to avoid it. Suddenly, I heard a woman calling urgently, pushing the window to look, all of them were delicate and delicate, and they stood on the bank of the river to endure the invasion of the rain and cold wind. Xu Shengyi approached the shore and brought the two daughters into the room to ...... "The Legend of the White Snake" in their hands, there are a total of 13 short stories, "Borrowing an Umbrella from the Lake", "Getting Married", "Stealing Treasury Silver", "Saying Xu", "Wine Change", "Stealing Fairy Grass", "Jinshan Temple", "Sofu", "Water Bucket", "Escape from the Mountain", "Broken Bridge", "Bowl", "Falling Tower".

When Wu Yong wrote, he not only borrowed from the later TV series "The Legend of the New White Lady", but also drew on Tian Han's Peking Opera "The Legend of the White Snake", making the story more colorful and profound.

The plot is roughly: Xu Xuan passed by the West Lake and encountered rain, and was in the same boat with Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, who were transformed by the white snake and the green snake; Bai Suzhen and Xu Xuan fell in love with each other, and Xu Xuan lent Bai Suzhen an umbrella and made a scheduled visit.

Then Bai Suzhen tested Xu Xuan's character and feelings several times, and only proposed marriage after knowing that he was honest and kind, and the two finally got married.

Later, Fahai, a monk of Jinshan Temple, secretly told Xu Xuan that Bai Suzhen was changed by a snake demon, and instigated Xu Xuan to persuade Bai Suzhen to drink realgar wine on the Duanyang Festival.

Bai Suzhen appeared in her original form, and Xu Xuan was shocked to death. Bai Suzhen infiltrated Kunlun Mountain, stole Ganoderma lucidum fairy grass, and fought with cranes and deer two children.

Fortunately, the Antarctic fairy Weng saw pity and gave Ganoderma lucidum to save Xu Xuan. Later, Xu Xuan listened to Fahai's slander and followed him to Jinshan Temple, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing went to Jinshan Temple, begging Fahai to release Xu Xuan, but Fahai did not allow it.

Bai Suzhen gathered the water tribe, the water flooded the golden mountain, and Fahai also summoned the heavenly soldiers and generals. Bai Suzhen was pregnant and physically exhausted, so she retreated and fell to the point of breaking the bridge, with abdominal pain and difficulty.

Xu Xuanwan suddenly woke up, and rushed all the way, Xiaoqing hated Xu Xuan's negative heart, and drew his sword to behead. Bai Suzhen tried her best to relieve Xu Xuan because of her deep love between husband and wife, Xu Xuan repeatedly apologized, and the three of them reconciled as before, and joined Xu Xuan's sister-in-law's house together.

Bai Suzhen gave birth to a son, Fahai ingested Bai Suzhen into the golden bowl during the baby's full moon, Xu Xuan knelt down to Fahai in humiliation, begging Fahai to let Bai Suzhen go, Fahai ignored him, and finally pressed Bai Suzhen into the Leifeng Tower, Xu Xuan was willing to become a monk in order to protect her.

Hundreds of years later, Xiaoqing refined his swordsmanship, led the immortals to burn down Leifeng Tower, rescued Bai Suzhen, and the family was reunited.

Several young ladies in the Houfu Mansion had seen such a twisted and bizarre story, and they even forgot to eat lunch for a while, but Wu Yong returned home and threatened them: "If you don't go to eat again, you won't rehearse the shadow puppet show today, and I will send Uncle Zhao out of the house tomorrow." Only then did they reluctantly leave the other courtyard and go to Zhuo Taijun's place in the backyard for dinner.

Perhaps it was their abnormality that alarmed the adults, Wu Yong had just discussed the rehearsal of "The Legend of the White Snake" with Uncle Zhao, and Zhuo Taijun's personal maid Qiu Xiang came over and said with a smile: "Mrs. Tai asked Xiao Langjun to take people to the hall in the backyard to perform!" Wu Yong had no choice but to take Uncle Zhao, A Qing, Cheng Zhao, and two maidservants to the backyard together, as for Cen Sheng and Yan Zhan, because they wanted to avoid suspicion, they could only stay in the other courtyard to take care of the family.

When the group came to the banquet hall in the backyard, they found that there were already many people here. Not only Zhuo Taijun and the little ladies are there, but even Zhu Yuan and Zhu Zi are among them.

Wu Yong stepped forward to greet the elders, and helped Uncle Zhao set up the stage, then stepped aside and let Uncle Zhao and Ah Qing perform.

"Leaving Emei to the south of the Yangtze River, there are such beautiful lakes and mountains in the world!" After a female monologue, the two women appeared on the white cloth and began to point to the surrounding scenery and pedestrians, "Sister, here we are!" How interesting it is here. Lo and behold, the people who swim in the lake are all couples and couples. ”

"Ah, Xiaoqing, you and my sister came to Jiangnan to appreciate the warmth and warmth of the mountain, so unpleasant. Qingmei, come and see, there is the famous broken bridge in front of you. Then the shadow of a broken bridge appeared on the white cloth, and the two women walked to the bridge and suddenly exclaimed: "Sister, it's raining heavily, let's take shelter under the willow tree." Then the shadow of a man holding an umbrella appeared on the white cloth,

"Ahh Two ladies, where are you going? With such heavy rain, can Liu Xia Yan avoid it? Just use my umbrella. After some prevarication, Xu Xuan proposed to send the two women back.

At this time, a black canopy appeared on the white cloth, and the stern captain shook the oar, and took the three people on board, accompanied by a rough sound.

"Ah~~, ah~~, the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, the sky in March, the spring rain is like wine, and the willows are like smoke~" Female voice: There is a fate to meet thousands of miles to meet the male voice: There is no chance to hold the female voice on the other side: Ten years of repairing the same boat to ferry the male voice: A hundred years of repairing to sleep together...... This song can be called the soul of the drama "The Legend of the White Snake", even if Zhao Bo sings a cappella without any musical addition, one person plays the triangle, it is not abrupt, and the voice is very infectious.

After a song, many people lost the mind to watch the shadow puppet show and began to talk in a whisper.

"What kind of tune is this, it's so good!"

"The artistic conception of the song is also very good, is this really written by Brother Yong?" …… Zhuo Taijun even asked the maidservant to call Wu Yong in front of him, and asked with a smile: "Are these all you come up with?" Wu Yong said honestly: "Most of them were listened to by Sun Er in Taixu Wonderland, and only a small part was arranged by Sun Er himself. Aunt Zhu on the side said with a smile: "I didn't expect the nephew of the Wu family to be so honest, you just said that it was all arranged by you, how can others know about what happened in Taixu." Wu Yong said with a smile: "Grandmother in person, grandson doesn't dare to talk nonsense!" Yes yes, no yes no. Zhuo Taijun was very pleased, and hurriedly asked the maid to bring a low stool, and let Wu Yong sit beside him, so that he could ask him immediately.

This shadow puppet show is very much to her heart, so she wants to know more from Wu Yong. At this time, the stage sang again: "A thousand miles of marriage are tied by a thread, and the umbrella is low and the head lotus." West Lake is like the sea in spring tonight, and I am willing to be a mandarin duck and not envy the immortals. Zhuo Taijun asked Wu Yong: "Did you think of this, or did you hear it in the void?" Wu Yonghui said: "Back to grandmother, I heard it." Zhuo Taijun laughed and said: "It's a loss to hear it, if you say that you did it, I don't know how many times your mother will trouble you." Zhu Shi stood up with a smile and said: "I estimate that as this shadow puppet show spreads, many women will come to know my nephew who is 'willing to be a mandarin duck and not an envy immortal'." The eldest aunt on the side, Deng Shi, also laughed and said, "What's this!" I'm afraid they won't dare to come. Zhuo Taijun pointed to the juniors who were watching fascinated, shook his head and sighed: "This shadow puppet show is good, but it is easy to mislead the juniors." When everyone heard this, they were all stunned, but Zhu smiled and said: "Why does my mother have this saying, since ancient times, it has been said that marriage is a godsend, the juniors are simple-minded, and there are loving mothers and professors, and they will never act willfully." When Zhuo Taijun heard this, he smiled and said: "Since I said that, then I will be too worried and continue to watch the play." The monk Fahai of Jinshan Temple secretly told Xu Xuan that Bai Suzhen was changed by the snake demon, and instigated Xu Xuan to persuade Bai Suzhen to drink realgar wine on the Duanyang Festival.

Bai Suzhen appeared in her original form, and Xu Xuan was shocked to death. This made many people who watched the play grit their teeth.

"How can there be such a bad monk, is this still a pure monk with six roots?"

"That's it, this is too bad, breaking up other people's good marriages is like thunder!"

"This Xu Xuan is also selfish, and when others instigate him, he ignores the relationship between husband and wife in the past, which is really hateful." At this time, it was already very late, Zhuo Taijun was old, but she couldn't stand the toss, she had yawned a few times, and she saw that everyone was noisy, so she ordered: "That's it for today, it's late, everyone should rest early." Naturally, everyone didn't dare to disobey her order, so they asked Zhao Bo to stop and rehearse the shadow puppet show.

Zhuo Taijun was helped out of the hall by his personal maidservant, and several elders also left. The remaining group of juniors were a little unsatisfied, so they began to gather around Wu Yong and ask about the next plot development.

Wu Yong was really tired today, and he didn't want to entangle with them too much, so he said with a smile: "Didn't the sisters read the original manuscript, and the next plot is like that." After a pause, Wu Yong continued: "Actually, I suggest that you still don't know too much of the plot, too many spoilers, there will be no sense of expectation, and the next time you watch a shadow puppet show, it will be a lot less fun." Everyone was stunned, thinking about it carefully, it was really as Wu Yong said, knowing the plot in the future, there was a lot less expectation in my heart, it was better not to read the original manuscript.

In this way, everyone did not continue to embarrass Wu Yong, but thanked him.

"Brother Yong, thank you today, let's watch such a wonderful shadow puppet show!"

"Hehe, I hope Brother Yong can write more plays like this in the future, it's so boring for our sisters to stay in the house all the time."
