Chapter 42

"Is Boss Hua here?"

Someone opened the curtain and came in, and it was a middle-aged man dressed in brocade.

"Excuse me, I heard Xiao Er say that Boss Hua is here, so I came here on purpose, I didn't bother you. ”

This person is also a fellow actor, with the nickname Bai Yusheng.

"Don't bother, don't bother. Sai Jin Chan said: "We are talking about the Caiyun class. ”

"Caiyun class is too deceitful. Bai Yu said angrily: "For this matter, we have been prepared for a long time. We have worked hard for a month to arrange the big play, but there are only a few seats, and we are all rushing to see Liuyunxian. ”

"Is Boss Hua here?"

Someone else walked in from outside.

This teahouse was originally a place where opera companies gathered, and those who came here to drink tea were all singing. Everyone is here to share news and exchange experiences, and sometimes it is convenient for a troupe to come here when there is a shortage of people.

Hearing that Hua Manting was here, everyone came over, and after a while, the owners of several opera troupes had gathered in the small box.

"The imperial court has long informed us that we should prepare well, but now in this situation, the imperial court is to blame, and a group of us singing opera can't afford it. ”

"If you want me to say, the court's blame is a trivial matter. Bai Yusheng said: "On our land, being pressed like this, this matter is not good to say." ”

"We have to find a way to get back the field, the Caiyun class only performs for half a month, and when half a month passes, we can't find a way to win it back. Then the Caiyun class can go back to blow for a lifetime, and in the future, we Nanyan will sing and go out, and we won't be able to raise our heads at any time. ”

"When I went to another country, my peers asked, how did you say how you were good, why was it that when Liuyunxian started the play, none of you could stand up. ”

"Hey, let's go back to someone's house. ”

Everyone felt that their faces were hot, and Bai Yusheng suddenly said: "It's really not good, I drugged Liuyun Xian's throat." ”

Qiu Lanpei, who had been watching the excitement, was suddenly excited, and a group of people sang so fiercely.

"Alas, this is a last resort, and it cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary. Sai Jin Chan looked at Hua Manting: "When is Boss Hua ready to go out of the mountain again, you are a famous actor in the capital, only if you take the stage, can we turn the situation back?"

Hua Manting sighed: "I really want to try, but unfortunately I don't have a place to sing?"

Everyone knows what's going on, Shuangfengban has offended Boss Liu and has been banned by the entire Beijing opera industry.

Sai Jincian spoke: "At this time, I think Boss Liu will also take care of the overall situation. Boss Hua might as well come to the door to compensate Boss Liu, let's come out again and intercede with Boss Liu, and this matter will be revealed. ”

"This ......"

"The ......"

"I don't have face at Boss Liu's, so I won't go. ”

Liu Yueheng is a bigwig in the opera industry in Beijing, and his father once sang for the old emperor in the palace, so he became the leading figure in the opera industry. Liu Yueheng inherited this glory, although the opera was not very good, but he accepted many apprentices and bought many theaters, forming a monopoly position in the opera industry in Beijing.

Hua Manting was divided, seeing that no one dared to come forward to intercede for him, many of them were Liu Yueheng's apprentices and grandchildren.

Her heart is already cold, and she has never been ruthless.

Bai Yusheng said: "I have an idea, the pillars of our major opera troupes will unite and arrange a big play, I don't believe it, Liuyunxian alone is better than all of us." ”

Hua Manting stood up and said, "Since this is the case, I won't stir up this situation, and you will take your leave." ”

Hua Manting Hua Manzhi and Qiu Lanpei walked out of the box, and the rest of the people were still discussing how to sing against Liuyunxian.

At the door, I happened to pass by a man, he was forty years old, with triangular eyes and a somewhat pale face.

Hua Manting quickened his pace and didn't stay a single step. The man turned his head and stared at Hua Manting's back, revealing a sneer.

He is Liu Yueheng, the bigwig of the opera industry in Beijing.

As soon as he walked into the box, Saijin Cicada Bai Yusheng and a group of people stood up at the same time: "Boss Liu." ”

Liu Yueheng sat down by herself, and did not return the salute to everyone:

"What is that Nizi doing here, do you want to sing on stage?"

"That's what she meant, Boss Liu, look ......," Sai Jincian said tentatively.

Liu Yueheng snorted coldly: "Give something shameless, unless she kneels down and begs me, kneel for three days and three nights, I will not consider it." ”

............

Wen Yuanchen and King Xiaoyao were dressed in civilian clothes and walked down the street, with several guards hiding in the crowd to watch out for lurking dangers.

There was no schedule today, the two of them were strolling around the street, and Wen Yuanchen looked a little listless.

King Xiaoyao glanced at Wen Yuanchen and felt a little funny. Just now, Wen Yuanchen passed by the theater where Caiyun Class sang and wanted to go in to listen to the play, but found that there was no ticket at all.

"If Wen Xiang wants to listen to the play, Xiao Wang can arrange a Caiyun class and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to sing for you?"

"Ha, this official is entangled in all things, how can he have time to listen to the play, and today is also a matter of interest, and he usually doesn't listen to the play. ”

Wen Yuanchen's implication is that I am doing big things, and listening to dramas is just a small thing, and I am not interested at all.

King Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "This king and Wen Xiang have different views, there may not be no true feelings in the play, and there is no hypocrisy in the world." I just have an idle temperament, so I can't afford to pay for national affairs, and this visit to Nanyan is also to catch ducks on the shelves. ”

King Xiaoyao stretched out his hand and pointed: "There are seven or eight theaters on this street, only the place where the Caiyun class sings is overcrowded, and there are no people in the other theaters, Wen Xiang, do you know what the truth is?"

Wen Xiang smiled faintly: "This official is not a drama who sings on stage, I don't understand, and I am not interested." ”

Nima, this is a deliberate show-off.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wen Yuanchen had a dark face.

"My lord, the people have already been brought. The butler came over and said.

"Hmm. ”

Wen Yuanchen snorted coldly and walked into the house, where the heads of all the major opera troupes in the capital gathered, and a group of people trembled.

"You usually have a big face, you hug before and after going out, and sometimes you can't be invited. Wen Xiang had a dark face: "What is the truth today, people are already riding on their necks, and they don't dare to squeak." ”

"There are dozens of opera troupes in the capital, countless famous actors, what's the matter, can't even a single Liuyun Immortal?"

"If you can't get my face back, don't stay in the capital, take all the guys and go to the border to sing for the soldiers. ”

"The text forgives sins. ”

All fell to their knees at the same time.

"Several of us have already discussed that we will jointly arrange a big show, and we will definitely get our face back when the time comes. ”

"Well, as soon as possible, if you embarrass me again at that time, I will let you go around without eating. ”

............

At night, the Sycamore faction.

Zhuang Yisheng was copying a book in the house, when suddenly the lights went off, and he was followed by a red dress in front of him.

A faint fragrance came, Zhuang Yisheng rubbed his eyes, and saw Xiao Bieli staring at him intently.

"Senior sister, you've lost weight recently. ”
