This night, it was not until dawn that Zhao Ta sent the two sisters and brothers back to the palace.

There was really no banquet in the palace, and according to the past practice, the banquet of the Mid-Autumn Festival was to be held until dawn.

At this moment, the palace was lifeless, and there was no festive atmosphere.

Emperor Daojun only demoted Zhao Yan to a concubine, and did not drive him out of the palace, so Zhao Yan could still live in the palace for the time being.

In later generations, even if it was close to Jingkang, Emperor Daojun still did not restore Zhao Yan's title, and after Zhao Huan ascended to the rank, he did not do it.

When the Jin soldiers fought Tokyo to drive the clan north, Zhao Yan was also entrapped.

Later, after several migrations, and finally settled in the city of the Five Kingdoms, according to various historical materials, Zhao Yan lived for a long time, and was the longest life expectant among the princes of the Northern Drive, that is, the Emperor of the Jin State survived several terms.

Two or three days later, the news of Zhao Ta's participation in the Taixue Poetry Club gradually spread, and he did not write poems and lyrics at the poetry meeting, but made two tunes, which immediately set off a storm in the literary world in Tokyo.

Those two tunes spread at a very fast speed, and in less than half a month, almost all the main shops in Tokyo were playing and singing.

The literati who went to the amusement wanted to listen to the music composed by King Qin, and they even needed to give a large amount of gold and silver, and the store made a lot of money.

In the literary world, the battle of lyrics and songs was directly brought to the table, attacking each other, and all kinds of verbal criticism and writing were staged every day.

As more and more people composed, new songs sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and they were often sung in the streets, alleys, and markets, and one by one the songs began to glow with vitality.

At this moment, in a delicate courtyard not far from Fan Lou, the table under the plane tree was full of fruits, and a jade-looking and delicate girl was gently holding her cheeks with her wrist like condensed fat, and whispered: "Make jade, do you say that the prince has forgotten me?" ”

The little maid next to her hurriedly said: "How could the prince forget the lady, the prince was sincere that day, and even those big officials were punished for the sake of the lady." ”

The girl was Zhao Yuannu, she sighed lightly when she heard this, and looked into the distance with bright eyes: "I always think about it these days, if he is not ...... It's not how good the prince is, I'd rather he be a poor scholar, and then redeem himself at home, fly away with him, live and live in both places, and be at ease. ”

Lang Yu looked at his own lady and was crazy, he couldn't bear it, and comforted: "Lady, the prince is an official in the court, he must be busy with official affairs, and there was a celebration banquet a few days ago. ”

Zhao Yuannu's eyes were slightly confused, and he said: "I heard Mei Niang say that he went to the Taixue Poetry Club and composed two tunes, which are popular in the shops in the city at the moment, and no one can play and sing." ”

Lang Yu bit her lip and said, "Lady, since the prince has started to fill in the music, the lady might as well practice, and the prince of the province is in a hurry when he wants to listen to it." ”

Zhao Yuannu nodded immediately: "It's really time to practice, otherwise the piano and flute and other instruments are unfamiliar, by the way, I'm afraid that the two pieces are not enough, Mei Niang said that there are many people who compose music outside now, you go and ask for a few, and I will practice it together." ”

Lang Yu said: "Lady wait, the slave will go now." ”

Zhao Yuannu watched Lang Yu go out and leave, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and a touch of melancholy appeared on his jade cheeks......

On this day, Zhao Ta watched the new songs outside in the mansion, and Li Qingzhao and others criticized his lyrics, and he couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.

After watching for a while, he called Lei San over and told him to go to the state bridge to find Qi Hongyu to cross the house.

In the middle of the morning, Qi Hongyu arrived, and with Lei San and Zhou Chu and others, Zhao Ta said: "I have something to do recently, and I will hand it over to a few of you." ”

Qi Hongyu said curiously: "What is the son going to do?" Redfish must give it their all. ”

Zhao Ta said: "It's not a big deal, I just want to open a theater, only sing opera and talk about music, and don't do side things." ”

Several people were stunned when they heard this, wasn't it the hook bar that sang the opera and said the song?

Lei San said cautiously: "Does the prince want to open the Goolan Courtyard?" ”

Zhao Ta glanced at him: "The goulan is too complicated to operate, this is the theater, it is enough to sing and sing on weekdays, talk about music books." ”

Qi Hongyu's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Lord Wang, this is simple, I don't know how large it should be, can you have a choice of locations?" ”

Zhao Ta thought for a while and said: "Why do you want four platforms, there are some miscellaneous shops outside, as for the location, it doesn't need to be too prosperous, just don't go out of the inner city." ”

Qi Hongyu said: "This slave family can go to find it, it just so happens that I have seen two places before, it is very suitable." ”

Zhao Ta said: "Red fish, you are in charge, let the people in the house cooperate with other things, as for the troupe to raise a big one, there is no need to have any fame, just know the music and understand the law and sing, and you must recruit innocent people from the people, and several families will be mixed together and included in the theater." ”

Qi Hongyu said: "My subordinates understand. ”

Zhao Ta looked at Lei Sanzhou again: "You take people to follow you to maintain, you don't need to report everything, just watch and deal with it." ”

Lei San said: "My subordinates know that if all the sticks that make trouble are taken away, they will never leave their hands." ”

Zhao Ta shook his head: "It's business now, don't always think about fighting and killing, even if it's fighting, killing and killing, you have to treat this as a business......"

Lei San was puzzled, looked at Zhou to the side, Zhou Shi ignored him with disgust, and said to Zhao Tan: "Lord Wang, subordinates know how to do it, and subordinates are good at this kind of thing." ”

Zhao Ta said: "It's good to know, to do business, you have to do business, business is not rivers and lakes, business is silver!" ”

The three of them saluted and said yes, and at this time, the housekeeper outside came to report that there was a will in the palace.

He sent the three of them away and went to the front hall to receive the order, but saw that it was Zhang Di.

The will was to let him go to the palace for a banquet in the evening, Zhao Ta wondered in his heart, and asked Zhang Di when the will was completed.

Zhang Di whispered: "Lord Wang, be careful tonight, Zhou Bangyan, the prefect of Shunchang, is back, and he is in the palace." ”

Zhou Bangyan is back? Zhao Ta frowned, this current word sect, Lao Du in the word, is not good to be an official in Huaidong, what are you doing when you run back to the capital?

To be honest, Zhao Ta didn't like Zhou Bangyan's words, although Zhou Bangyan has always been respected as a graceful and great master, and later the word theory also called him the crown of lyricists, and was recognized as a "negative generation of words", both contemporary and Song Dynasty have a great influence.

But Zhao Ta just doesn't like it, that public opinion doesn't include him, not to mention the advantages and disadvantages of Zhou Ci, he just can't be interested in Zhou Ci.

Of course, the literati are light, each with its own eyes, even if Zhao Ta doesn't like it, it can't change Zhou Bangyan's status in the world of words, Zhou Nai is a contemporary word sect, and no one can come out of it, at least at this time, Li Qingzhao can't compare.

But Zhao Ta just felt that Li Qingzhao's words were better than Zhou Bangyan's.

Even if this eldest sister is addicted to drinking and gambling, her temperament is overconfident and a little stubborn, but the words are really good.

Li Qingzhao's euphemism, in Zhao Ta's eyes, is the end of the Song Dynasty, he thinks that the euphemism of the Great Song Dynasty has stopped with Li Qingzhao, and there is no one to come.

Zhao Ta thought for a moment, looked at Zhang Di and said, "Zhou Meicheng is so old, if she doesn't retire in the warm land of Huaidong, what will she do when you come back?" ”

Zhang Di listened to Zhao Ta's tone was not polite, so he said sycophantly: "What the prince said is that the official family took pity on him for his old age a few years ago, and it was not easy to be in office, so he was transferred from Hebei to Huaidong, but some time ago, for some reason, he suddenly wanted to enter Beijing. ”

"Did he take the initiative to go up?" Zhao Ta touched his chin and thought, it can't be because of the dispute over lyrics and songs, right?

"Lord Wang, it was he who took the initiative." Zhang Di lowered his voice and said: "Originally, this matter was reckless, but I didn't expect the official family to readily agree, as soon as Zhou Bangyan returned to Beijing, he was immediately called into the palace by the official family." ”

Zhao Ta squinted, the two old ones originally had a disagreement, but in order to deal with their own family, they actually joined forces?

Emperor Daojun is definitely going to suppress him, maybe he is worried that he can't do anything, Zhou Bangyan has to go back to Beijing to deal with him for the sake of the lyrics and songs, even if the two have a vendetta before, but they hit it off in this matter!

Zhao Ta said: "Who else is there at the palace banquet tonight besides Zhou Bangyan?" ”

Zhang Di thought for a while: "There seem to be Wang Huang and Cai You in the court, Bai Shizhong, except for Zhou Bangyan, it seems that there are some literati and lyricists in the capital, by the way, there are several disciples of Zhou Bangyan." ”

Zhao Ta nodded, there was no doubt that the Hongmen banquet was over, and it seemed that he wanted to suppress him with the battle of words and songs.

However, no matter how good your lyrics are Zhou Bangyan, no matter how many lyricists in the capital are present, can you suppress yourself?

Although you Zhou Bangyan was famous in the current dynasty and famous in later generations, no matter how you are, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the top five lyricists since ancient times, right?

I have four pieces of music here, everyone is waiting for a vacuum, and if you don't accept the competition, the competition is.

As for the other lyricists in the capital, at this time, except for Li Qingzhao, there are really few who can do it, even if there are more people, can you still have more than the century-old composers I remember?

Zhao Ta disagreed, although this kind of thing was a dispute between literati, but Emperor Daojun immediately changed his taste when he got involved, but since they all united to deal with him, he overturned them all.

Quickly cut through the mess, lightning was not able to hide his ears, and directly set the tone for the Shilin literary world tonight to compete with the words and compete with each other.

After Zhang Di left, Zhao Ta immediately called Su Shi, and after giving some instructions, Su Shi was ordered to go out.

In just a few hours, King Qin and Zhou Bangyan and Tokyo lyricists will compete in the imperial palace for lyrics and songs, and the city of Tokyo is a sensation.

The major academies, the main store, the Qinglou, and the bookstore and printing bureau are all boiling, and there is no doubt that there will be many good words and songs tonight, which is a great blessing in the literary world.

The academy and the academy are all concerned about the impact of the article and this matter, and those doctoral students have faintly felt that this should be a big showdown in the battle of lyrics and songs, King Qin is the person who reviates the song, and Zhou Bangyan is the contemporary word sect, this must be to distinguish the winner and lose, and determine the true status of the song.

If King Qin wins, or even if it is only a draw, then the status of Qu will immediately be self-evident, and it will go hand in hand with poetry and words, and it will be unshakable.

If King Qin loses, it may not have much impact on King Qin's literary knowledge revealed in the hearts of the world, after all, King Qin is also a master of poetry, but for the matter of Xingqu, it is a failure, which will be a heavy blow to King Qin's reputation.

The main store Qinglou and the bookstore printing bureau were thinking about how to get the poems and tunes at the dinner party as soon as possible, which could represent the silver money spent in vain.

Whoever can get the lyrics and songs of King Qin or Zhou Cizong first, and sing them before other families, then not only can they immediately become silver, but they can also become famous in the capital.

What others can't get, my family gets, what does this mean? It represents that there are people in my palace, this is an invisible force, which is a fear for competitors and a guarantee of safety for guests.

So all the storehouses have their own means, and they all plan to get the poems at tonight's banquet as soon as possible, even if it is worth paying a big price.

After all, only the three of them attended the dinner, and all the shops with whom they had a relationship with them went over to pay homage, with only one purpose, that is, to let the poems on the banquet be revealed to the three adults first, so that they could sing in the building earlier than others.

There are also those who have found their relationships in the palace, and those eunuchs are not all lonely, many of them are from local families in Tokyo, and they have both relatives and neighbors outside, in short, they are all found by the outside store.

And this kind of thing Fan Lou naturally won't miss, Fan Lou has the most extensive travel, and has some contacts with Wang Hao, as for the palace, it is also the most favored Zhang Zhiban at the moment, Fan Xuewen even has a friendship with Zhang Di.

Fan Xuewen knew that this kind of thing was actually the safest way to find someone in the palace, so he sent someone to ask Zhang Di with a heavy gift, but Zhang Di only accepted half of the gift, so he brought a letter back.

Fan Xuewen looked suddenly enlightened when he read the letter, and then handed the letter to Mr. Wu on the side.

Mr. Wu took a look, Zhang Di said in the letter that although this matter can be done, it may not be able to ensure that Fan Lou is the first to get the lyrics and songs, but since he received the gift, he will give Fan Lou an idea, if he acts according to this idea, he will definitely be able to get the song first, and this idea is to let them go to the king of Qin.

Mr. Wu nodded and said: "What Zhang Zhiban said is right, as long as he can move the King of Qin, then Fan Lou will definitely be able to preempt the shops and get the song first." ”

Fan Xuewen said: "It should be like this, this kind of major event of a duel between words and songs, the prince must have a plan in his heart, and he doesn't have to come out of the palace, he can directly give it to us!" ”

Mr. Wu said: "Big Boss, I don't think it's too late, I should immediately prepare a generous gift to send to the palace, and this matter is ...... It is also necessary for the big owner to come out in person. ”

Fan Xuewen nodded and said, "Then hurry up and prepare for the ceremony, I will go to the palace immediately!" ”

Over there, Zhao Ta was sitting quietly in the mansion, when someone suddenly came to report that the big proprietor of Fan Lou had brought a gift and asked to see him.

Zhao Ta smiled slightly and said, "I know what happened to him, the gift is accepted and put into storage, as for what he asks, just let him go to Zhao Yuannu." ”

In the small courtyard, Zhao Yuannu held a pipe flute in his hand, and just practiced a tune, a pair of watery eyes, looking at the plane tree in a daze, suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.

The maid went over to ask, and after a while, she trotted back with a happy face, shouting as she ran: "Lady, lady, the prince has sent someone to deliver a letter, and he has brought a few tunes......
