The snow in Qingzhou gradually melted, and a hint of warmth spread at noon. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the East Market, the people watching the play have surrounded the three floors inside and the outside three floors, and bursts of cheers rang out from time to time under the stage.
When they saw the hatred, the people gritted their teeth even more, eager to rush to the stage to beat Huang Shiren to death.
In this drama, they saw the shadow of their past, and once upon a time, they were also bullied by the wealthy family and had to sell their sons and daughters.
"Kill Huang Shiren, kill him!"
When the drama reached its climax, the people suddenly shouted, and the loud voice made Xiao Ming's eardrums vibrate for a while.
Zhao Long Zhao Hu, like the people, also changed their expressions with the change of the plot, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes angry.
When the drama ended and Huang Shiren was beaten to death, finally a huge cheer rang out in Dongshi.
"It's so relieving, this Huang Shiren is finally dead."
"Hey, it's better for us to be in Qingzhou, otherwise whoever dares to perform such a drama will only be able to tolerate it with a big belly."
"It's not, this Huang Shiren is a hero, who dared to perform this in the downtown before, I still have to thank His Highness, if it weren't for His Highness driving away the wealthy families in these six states, we are now Yang Bailao."
"That's right, this play is good and worth appreciating."
With that, the man took out three copper plates from his cuffs and threw them at the stage.
As soon as the three copper plates were thrown, the copper coins fell on the stage like rain, which made the three actors on the stage stunned instantly.
They used to perform in Qingzhou, and there were so many people who gave them rewards, and it was not bad to be able to earn thirty copper coins a year.
And now, in just an instant, there are copper coins on the ground, and there are thousands of copper coins in a while.
The people in front of them gave a reward and left, and then the people in the back stepped forward and threw copper plates on the stage one after another, and many people shouted: "Good performance, much better than the previous play." ”
"Your Highness, can I go and give them a reward?" Zhao Long said at this time.
Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a smile when he came back to his senses, Zhao Hu said playfully: "You kid won't fall in love with other people's little ladies, but this little lady looks like a water spirit." ”
Zhao Long Muran's face suddenly turned red, and he argued: "Don't talk nonsense, ruin people's reputation. ”
Zhao Hu grinned and said: "What reputation can a drama have." ”
Zhao Long glared at Zhao Hu fiercely, and Zhao Hu suddenly didn't dare to speak.
Xiao Ming watched the two brothers arguing with interest, this little lady who played Xi'er is indeed smart, and it is common to like the heroine because she is fascinated by drama.
This Zhao Long seems to be the version of the star chasers in the Great Chongqing Kingdom, but unlike modern times, the status of the opera in the Great Chongqing Country is very low, and it is even inferior to the craftsman.
Because of this, Zhao Hu will be unceremonious.
Seeing Zhao Long put the copper coin on the stage, and glanced at the little lady shyly, Xiao Ming and Zhao Hu laughed one after another.
But laughing and laughing, Xiao Ming felt that he needed to talk to this troupe, so he said: "Zhao Hu, let this troupe come to the palace to see this king!" ”
"Yes." Zhao Hu nodded.
Zhao Long returned, and the two sent Xiao Ming to the palace.
After that, Zhao Long and Zhao Hu left the palace and came to Dongshi again.
On the way, Zhao Long asked worriedly: "Why did Your Highness summon Chen Laoshi's troupe, did this drama anger Your Highness?" ”
"When did you become so stupid, this drama was created by His Highness, how can you anger Your Highness?"
"It was created by His Highness, so he angered His Highness, they must not have acted well enough." Zhao Long said.
Zhao Hu sighed, pinched his waist and said, "Erlang, you really won't fall in love with that little lady, how is this honest troupe, what's the matter with you?" Carrying out His Highness's orders is! ”
Zhao Long was reprimanded by Zhao Hu, so he had to nod.
In Dongshi, the troupe is counting the money harvested this time, and the woman who plays Xi'er has already taken off her costume at this time and put on a simple linen dress, she said to the thin middle-aged man who was lighting the copper coins in Xizizi: "Dad, how much is it." ”
The thin middle-aged man was Teacher Chen, he turned his face, his slender eyes narrowed into a line, "Your name is Xi'er, the girl in this play is also called Xi'er, it seems that God is destined for you to play this Xi'er, we have made a fortune this time, three thousand copper plates, this is three taels of silver." ”
The rest of the troupe was excited, and they earned three taels of silver in one day, so wouldn't they earn hundreds of taels of silver this month.
In the past, the troupe ate and slept in the open, but now it has made a big turnaround.
"This is all thanks to the little lady Aster, if she hadn't taught me, our troupe wouldn't be like this, Dad, why don't I buy something for the little lady Aster in the evening, and talk about it."
"Well, that's right, let's know how to repay it."
At this time, the middle-aged man who played Huang Shiren said: "The little lady Aster is from the Qi Palace, how can she be short of things, let's not try to make jokes, this money is still divided by yourself, people are not bad things." ”
"Wu San, what you said is not right, it is almost the matter of the little lady of Aster, whether to send it or not is our own business, how can we not know shame as a person?"
"I'm dying of hunger, what more shame do you want, let's hurry up and divide the money." Wu San said with his triangular eyes open.
While the three of them were talking, Zhao Long and Zhao Hu walked into the back of the stage at this time, and Zhao Hu said: "Chen Laoshi, His Royal Highness King Qi is invited!"
"His Royal Highness King Qi!" Chen was shocked, "You are?" ”
Zhao Long said: "We are the close guards of His Royal Highness King Qi, please come with us." ”
When he spoke, Zhao Long looked at Chen Xi'er, his eyes flickered, he was amazed by Chen Xi'er's performance just now, and at this time, he couldn't help but feel some emotions in his heart, as if he was the person in the play in front of him.
Chen Laoshi's face turned pale with fright, and he grabbed a handful of copper coins and held them over, "Two officials, why did His Highness summon us?" ”
Zhao Hu said: "When you go to the palace, you will naturally know that you should take back the money, and we will not do this in the palace." ”
"Dad, just listen to the words of the two officials." Chen Xi'er said generously, "Sister Aster is here, it shouldn't be difficult for us." ”
Chen Laoshi's face was still a little pale, so he had to nod, and Wu San was even more frightened.
"Please!"
Zhao Hu made a gesture of invitation at this time and walked towards the palace, and Chen Laoshi and the others hurriedly packed up their things and followed.
When they arrived at the Qi Palace, Zhao Hu led the group to the main hall, and Chen Laoshi was shocked when he saw the man sitting in the middle of the main hall.
He seemed to have seen this face in the crowd when he was performing just now.
At this time, I couldn't help but feel even more worried.
