On the second day of July, the new drama "Dou E's Injustice" at the Jiangnan Grand Theater officially started. The choice for the start of the new play is still the old theater of Mochizuki Tower in Beicheng, which is still played by the original cast led by Xie Yingying. Because in order for a play to be successful, it must be preconceived, and the importance of the premiere is very important.

This time, Lin Jue invited Fang Dunru to come to watch, although Fang Dunru didn't like to appear on this occasion, but Lin Jue's invitation was the first time, and the Jiangnan Grand Theater has become famous for more than half a year, and it has become an entertainment hotspot in Hangzhou in addition to the flower world. Driven by the Jiangnan Grand Theater, Duojia Theater has appeared in Hangzhou, which has become a new industry. Therefore, under this fame, Fang Dunru also wanted to come and see it with his own eyes to see why this theater can be so popular.

Fang Dunru asked for two tickets, saying that he wanted to bring his wife to watch the play together, but Lin Jue naturally couldn't ask for it. However, at the beginning of the ceremony, Lin Jue only saw Fang Dunru coming alone and asked where his wife was, but Fang Dunru said that his wife and several ladies of the academy chairs went to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha.

Lin Jue could only smile bitterly, Master Fang was not a person who could sit down and watch the play. It's a bit funny to say, Mrs. Fang's personality is lively, I think she was a lively and lovely girl when she was young, but Fang Dunru is a calm and introverted person. Mrs. Fang has never read any books, and her background is not high, but Fang Dunru is a great Confucian who is full of poetry and books. There are many differences between the two hobbies, and in the eyes of outsiders, this should be a very unsuitable pair. However, Fang Dunru and his wife get along well, not to mention raising their eyebrows, at least they respect and love each other. Therefore, sometimes the matter of marriage is really unclear, Fang Dunru and other great Confucians in the world are not in front of Mrs. Fang, who does not know a few big characters and has a very different personality and demeanor, and even the Fang family has no queen and refuses to marry a concubine. In response to that sentence, marriage is like a pair of shoes, only your own feet know whether they are comfortable or not, and other people's speculations and speculations are in vain.

To Lin Jue's surprise, he didn't invite other people with faces in Hangzhou to attend the premiere, but after Fang Dunru, Hangzhou Governor Yan Zhengsu also came in civilian clothes. What made Lin Jue even more stunned was that not long before the opening, the prince and his son actually came forward and hugged each other and sat in the most expensive box in the middle of the second floor. Lin felt this news and hurriedly went to meet King Liang's father and son, and in that box, he finally met the little county lord dressed as a man. The moment the two of them met their eyebrows, all the doubts in Lin Jue's heart disappeared. The little county lord has an affectionate vein between his eyebrows, and his eyes are full of longing, as if he has a thousand words to tell him, and there is no trace of complaint and resentment. And the moment Lin Jue saw the little county lord, he realized that he also had a lot of words to say to her, and he also missed her unforgettable.

If it weren't for the cold snort of the little prince who interrupted the entanglement of the eyes of the two, the two of them were afraid that they would be discovered by Guo Bing. The little prince was very dissatisfied with the affectionate and affectionate gaze between Lin Jue and his sister, and couldn't help but beat the mandarin duck three or two sentences to drive Lin Jue out.

The prince and his son and the prefect Yan came to the Jiangnan Grand Theater to watch the play at the same time, which was the first time in the world. Everyone knows that the Yan Governor's Mansion will never go in and out of such an occasion, and the only thing that can make the Yan Governor's Mansion participate is the annual Oiran Competition, but that is the façade of Hangzhou, and the participation of the Yan Governor's Mansion is also for the overall situation of Hangzhou City and to expand the influence of Hangzhou City. And how can this Jiangnan Grand Theater He De let Governor Yan come? There must be another reason for that.

As for the prince and his son, it was even more surprising. You must know that Wanhualou and Qunfang Pavilion are the properties of the palace, and these two Qinglou have also followed the Jiangnan Grand Theater to open a theater to perform plays, and even the top brands of the two Qinglou, Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan, have also personally starred in the repertoire to compete with the popularity of the Jiangnan Grand Theater. And the father and son, who are the de facto owners, came to the rival's theater to cheer, which is really surprising.

Although, in the eyes of outsiders, these are strange places, but those who know the inside story actually understand in their hearts that all this is actually just because of one person, and that is Lin Jue. Lin Jue is one of the owners of the Jiangnan Grand Theater, which many people know, and only the current Lin Jue has this face, so that the prefect and the prince and his son come uninvited and take the initiative to cheer him on. Although this concubine of the Lin family has not yet weakened the crown, although he is only a nameless grass people, he is actually an extremely important figure in this city. It is also very important in the minds of Yan Zhengsu and the prince's father and son. I'm afraid Lin Jue himself is not fully aware of this.

In any case, the new drama officially started on time. Lin Jue accompanied Fang Dunru to sit in a small box drinking herbal tea, shaking the folding fan, watching the light dim and the curtain open.

The curtain opened, and under the dim light, an ordinary alley and street market appeared in front of everyone. On the walls on both sides of the theater, slide lights flicker, showing the scene of the market at 180 degrees. After the improvement, the glass pieces are sharpened thinner, the artist's craftsmanship is more refined, and the scene is more realistic and vivid. This made Fang Dunru, who had watched this kind of stage play for the first time, forget to shake the fan in surprise and look at all this in surprise.

An ordinary-dressed woman crossed her waist and opened with a smile in the drumbeat.

"Flowers have a reblooming day, and no one is young. You don't have to be rich and rich, peace and happiness are immortals. The old body Granny Cai is also. Chuzhou people's family, family members of three relatives. Unfortunately, the husband has passed away, and there is only one child, who is eight years older. I have two mothers and children, and I have lived my days and moons. The family has a lot of money. A young man here asked me to borrow 20 taels of silver from last year, and now he should have borrowed 40 taels of silver. I asked for it several times, but the Xiucai only said that he was poor and had no choice but to pay me back. He has a daughter, who is seven years old this year, and she is born happily and cutely. I had the heart to take a fancy to him and be a daughter-in-law with my family, so I approved the forty taels of silver, wouldn't it be convenient for both! He said that today is a good day, and he will send his daughter to my house. The old body does not ask for money to go, but waits at home. This sooner or later, Dou Xiu dared to stay. ”

Wearing patched clothes and describing the decadent Tang Dynasty, Dou Tianzhang led a little girl and walked slowly up from the right side of the stage.

"After reading thousands of books, poor and poor horses are the same. Han Ting accepted the call of grace one day, not to mention that he was empty. Xiaosheng's surname is Dou, his name is Tianzhang, and his ancestors are also from Chang'an Jingzhao. Young Confucianism, full of articles. The battle for luck is unsuccessful, and the fame is unsuccessful. Unfortunately, the death of the family has passed, leaving this girl behind, and the small words are cloudy. His mother died when he was three years old, and now the child is seven years old. Xiaosheng was destitute and lived in this Chuzhou. There's a Granny Cai here......"

In a few words, the story officially began. Dou Tianzhang failed in the imperial examination, was poor, and had to sell his daughter to pay off his debts. This scene was briefly explained, in the cry of Dou Duanyun shouting 'Daddy', Dou Tianzhang covered his face and went down, and Granny Cai pulled Dou Duanyun down from the other side. The curtain falls.

Although it is only a short first act, the low drum music, the broken scene, the bleak lighting, and the fallen leaves falling from the stage entrance from time to time have set off an extremely depressing atmosphere. Many students in the audience resonated with the pain of not studying hard, and their eyes were moistened. Even Fang Dunru, who was sitting next to Lin Jue, remembered the hardships of studying hard for the exam back then, and his heart was very depressed. Of course, more viewers began to substitute for the plot, cursing this Dou Tianzhang's ruthlessness, and giving up his own flesh and blood for fame. In short, the first act has already captured everyone's hearts when it opens.

The second act begins, years later. Granny Cai asked Dr. Sailu for money and goods, but Dr. Sailu had no money to repay the debt, so he deceived Granny Cai to go to the village to withdraw money, and when she went to the hillside, Doctor Sailu took out a rope and strangled Granny Cai's neck to kill someone. At this time, Zhang Donkey's father and son passed by and rescued Granny Cai. Doctor Sailu fled in a hurry, and Zhang Donkey's father and son learned that Granny Cai's family had money, and only she and her daughter-in-law depended on each other, and gave birth to evil thoughts. forced Granny Cai and her daughter-in-law to marry their father and son. Granny Cai had no choice but to lead Zhang Donkey's father and son home. Dou Duanyun played by Xie Yingying is already a young woman, Zhang Donkey's eyes are straight, and she wants to succeed. Granny Cai persuaded Dou Duanyun to agree to the marriage, but Duanyun verbally refused. So Zhang Donkey bought arsenic. Frost wanted to poison Granny Cai to coerce Duanyun to remarry and occupy Granny Cai's family business. Zhang Donkey's father accidentally drank poison and died. Zhang Donkey'er couldn't be coerced, so he falsely accused Duanyun of killing people and reported to the government. The corrupt official Tao Zhu was bribed by Zhang Donkey, beat Dou E into a trick, sentenced to a murder case, and was ready to be beheaded.

The second act is complex and has twists and turns. But compared to the first act, the second act is more depressing. Zhang Donkey's father and son did evil, faint officials took bribes and perverted the law, Dou Duanyunning kept the festival to death, the officials in the court were vicious, the bad people were free, the weak woman called the heavens should not be called the earth, all kinds of punishments took turns, and the fierce and vicious officials sent people to be vicious. From Dou Duanyun's slim appearance when he came on the field, to Dou Duanyun's bloodstained body when he was beaten, and his face was like a ghost. All of this made the audience silent, full of sighs and gnashing of teeth.

Most of the officials are ordinary people, although they are in the peaceful and prosperous era of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but who has not learned the fierceness and domineering of the official family, and who has not suffered the evil spirit of the powerful people. At this moment, I felt the same feeling in my heart, shook my head and sighed in panic. But this is not the most shocking, the most uncomfortable thing for the audience is that this second act is full of powerlessness in the depression, and there is no positive energy in the entire second act, and there is no place for them to see hope. That's the most unacceptable part.

Fang Dunru watched the second act with a frown, needless to say about the skills and singing passages of the play, Lin Jue had obviously worked it. But Fang Dunru didn't pay much attention to these, he paid attention to why Lin Jue wrote like this, and why he made all the viewers depressed and uncomfortable.

Without waiting for Fang Dunru to ask, the third act had already opened in the midst of a terrifying drum.
