Luo Mo's mother came up with an idea for Zhang Ning, and she would take her back to the opera troupe first and then report it; then asked her father to invite her colleagues to listen to the opera to invite Zhang Ning over, so that they would have a reason to meet for the first time, and it would become natural to start interacting in the future.
When the actors entered the Yang family, Yang Shiqi immediately understood the general situation when he heard about this.
However, his unquestionable appearance made Luo Mo Niang a little anxious and kept saying good things about Zhang Ning in front of him.
Yang Shiqi touched her beard and smiled and listened to her, still not expressing her attitude.
Yang Shiqi is not a person who will be influenced by others. He will know what you think if you say it.
It’s not unreasonable that when the son valued Yang Shiqi so much today, the prince treated him as a national scholar; it was not because the father and son of the Zhu family liked Yang Shiqi. In fact, Yang Shiqi never liked the emperor. Sometimes he felt that bad things were not agreed with, and the emperor would be a little angry at that time, but whenever he got angry, he would find that Yang Shiqi’s words were really good, and he could solve the problem by listening to Shiqi…
Over time, Emperor Hong Xi always asked Yang Shiqi what he thought about in everything. If Yang Shiqi disagreed, the emperor would think about it several times.
Of course, Yang Shiqi is not the kind of censor who directly scolds the emperor for being unfair, and it is different from the so-called direct minister.
Unless the emperor is unsure of his mind and really wants to hear other people's opinions, he will express his own opinions and stick to the end; if the emperor has issued an order or decided, he will not do it against it, and he will never talk about the good things of the superior in private.
Such a pragmatic and characterful minister, and Zhu Gaochi's former official in the East Palace, was regarded as a treasure by the Zhu family's father and son.
This is the attitude towards the superior.
But he would not be so indulgent to his subordinates, for example, he would have his own opinions on Luo Mo Niang's children's marriage...
Originally, Luo Mo's mother also respected her father very much, and Yang Shiqi's views had a great impact on her. Perhaps there was no need for Yang Shiqi to interfere forcibly when conflicts occurred, and she would also listen.
Luo Mo's mother said a lot of good things and looked at him with great anticipation: Dad, if you succeed, just give me a word!
I have never met Zhang Ping'an, but I have heard of some things about him. What did you ask me to say?Yang Shi paused and asked again, how much did the opera troupe spend him?
Luo Mo Niang was immediately stopped and said embarrassedly: I really don’t know this, but he said that he wrote the opera, and the things he tinkered with should not cost much.
Just ask the people in the troupe to come and ask.Yang Shiqi said.
Luo Moniang wondered: Why did my father ask about such minor details?
Yang Shiqi smiled and said: It’s not a trivial matter. If a person is good at doing things, he must be good at being a human being first.What's more, when you talk about marriage, you have to live with him in the future. I won't say whether you can live a glorious life for the time being. It's always good to suffer less and be displaced...
As he spoke, he smiled with a sense of vicissitudes, as if he had thought of his mother. He had experienced a lot of ups and downs in his life with his son.
Luo Moniang followed Yang Shiqi's words and went out to ask someone to spread the word from two opera troupes.
A foreman is older, but in fact, the most important role is to play the role of a female actor on the stage and has a relatively high status in the troupe. However, most of these actors are mainly members of a family, with older people with high seniority; the other is a young man, who claims to be a foreman, Sn in law.
Yang Shiqi was wearing a gray cotton jacket, but his posture looked very identity. Even the future wife of the Zhang family official stood beside him. Perhaps the head of the family, the old man in the foreman knelt on the ground and spoke, and the other person knelt on his knees to greet him.
Yang Shiqi asked them up kindly and asked them about their worth in a tactful manner.
Unexpectedly, the old man in the foreman was quite angry and scared Luo Mom when he said it: When he was in Nanjing, someone paid 5,000 taels to buy our team.
Luo Mo Niang immediately reminded him with disbelief: Talk well!
At this time, the price of a slave is similar to that of a horse. How much can a dozen people be worth? Adding musical instruments, costumes, props, etc., one or two hundred taels!No wonder Luo Mo Niang thinks it is a fantasy...
The foreman said seriously: How dare you talk nonsense?The song "Peony Pavilion" was written by Mr. Su, the "Exiled Immortal in the Qu" and it was rumored that Mr. Su spent several years seeking a breakthrough in the North and South Songs. Once it was released, it was named the most fashionable "Su's tune", and it formed its own school.Our team is the first group of people who can sing Su style, and Gu Chunhan, the new rising star in Nanjing, taught himself.Who is Gu Chunhan?The four richest and most talented young masters in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have never seen her true face yet. The fourth young master is not able to ask for a meeting, let alone ordinary people!The young one is not talking big. Even if a team learns Su's accent in the future, they will definitely not be as good as us!Our "Peony Pavilion" troupe is just the origin, isn't it worth a few thousand taels?Some people want to pay 5,000 taels and they haven't bought it yet. Maybe the value is more than this.
Luo Moniang frowned and said: Isn’t it that your opera was written by Zhang Ping’an, so why did it become Mr. Su and Gu Chunhan?
The foreman said: The song made by Mr. Su, the play taught by Mrs. Gu, and the newly famous Mr. Ping'an wrote the first book and then changed the lyrics.It is not easy to do these three things, including music, ci, and opera, but in comparison, ci is the easiest. What is the smallest?
Yang Shiqi nodded and said: He is right. Ordinary literati can write a ok book with their heart. It is another matter to put it on stage to perform.
Luo Moniang asked curiously: How much money does that Zhang Ping'an spend?
Two thousand taels of silver.The foreman said that everyone in Chunhan Liyuan had heard of this, but it was not a little Hu. If you don’t believe it, please ask someone to inquire.
Seeing that Yang Shiqi stopped talking, Luo Moniang sent them down.
She looked a little embarrassed and said: If I had known that there was so much money, I would have discussed it with my father before. Will this... be impeached?It’s all Zhang Ping’an’s fault. He said nothing and said that you always like to listen to operas, so he led a opera troupe. I thought I was looking for something common, so I took it back on my own initiative.
fine.Yang Shiqi said calmly.As soon as this matter spread, anyone could guess that Zhang Ning might be his sn in law candidate. What is the housework for sn in law and what to do with others? What is there to say?
Luo Moniang asked carefully: Are you going to accept it?
Yang Shiqi smiled and said: I have to finish watching "Peony Pavilion" if I accept it or not. The old man brags so much just now. If I don't listen to the play with my own ears, would I be embarrassed to call myself a drama fan?
Luo Mo Niang suddenly smiled, but said: Yes, dad can appreciate it when he hears it. If it is not good, what words should the performer say? Humph!
Mencius said: It is better to have fun and enjoy everyone than to have fun alone.This drama cannot be filled with the joy of our family. Ask the housekeeper to post a post to some colleagues who like this thing to come and listen to it... Zhang Ning also invites you.
Luo Mo Niang was so excited that she rushed to pass the message, and her plan succeeded!
……
Those who came to Yang's mansion that night were basically all senior officials, and the class was not enough to listen to operas with Yang Shiqi. A few smaller officials in Beijing also had a strong relationship. For example, Zhang He came with his father-in-law because he was the Minister Lu Zhen's Sn In Law, and the seventh-rank censor Yu Qian was a student of Yang Shiqi. Needless to say, Zhang Ning's relationship also has a name on the surface: he wrote the lyrics of "The Peony Pavilion", and he could see the author when he listened to opera, so what's wrong?
Obviously, this play is very accurate, and not to mention that the costumes and props are all good materials and are not comparable to those mobile grass head teams. From singing to posture and dance, they are very novel and interesting.
Yang Shiqi looked intoxicated when he heard the wonder, and his head shaking gently with the melody...
Yang Shiqi is very steady on weekdays, and it is rare to see him show a relaxed and happy side.
During the two sessions, Yang Shiqi spoke: I asserted that in the future, all the Liyuans will learn Su's accents, and no matter the Northern Song and Southern Opera, they will be overshadowed!
Everyone agreed for a while, and Yu Qian congratulated Zhang Ning: Ping An’s talent is admirable.
Zhang Ning could hear that Yu Qian was sincere, because he, Yu Qian and Yang Shiqi were all people who could take care of each other. It was a good thing for his own people to become famous and able to grow their momentum.
When Zhang Ning was happy, he bowed to Yang Shiqi and said: Gu Chunhan, the one who sang the best in Su's voice, was fortunate to hear it in Nanjing. He taught the songs of the three months of Liang to keep lingering.Unfortunately, that Shi Gu Chunhan is a noble person and it is rare to meet him once, and he cannot invite the capital to come, which is really a pity.
oh?
Yang Shiqi laughed and said, "It's reasonable that talented people are so noble." I'm lucky to hear the plays she taught."Um... He stroked his beard and when I retreated to the mountains and forests, I must go to Nanjing to see if I can listen to the plays that Mrs. Gu sang in her lifetime.
Lu Zhen laughed and said: Your Majesty, you can't bear to leave you in retirement. When you are about to retire, you still don't know if you can walk around!
Yang Shiqi also laughed: The emperor's kindness is too heavy, and the old minister wants to return but cannot.
Because of this, a group of officials noticed Zhang Ning, at least remembered his name.
Some people have heard of Yang Shiqi's private affairs before, and this time they probably guessed that Zhang Ning might become Yang Shiqi's sn in law.
Many ministers observed this young official privately and had a good impression...
Even ministers with great status in this era pay great attention to appearance, not because they are superficial, because they believe in the theory of being linked to their minds and nature.
Although Zhang Ning's face is not a national character, he is also well-coordinated and has a bright eyes and a tall figure and sitting posture. He is not like the lustful person. Yang Shiqi will not lose face if he lets such a young bureaucrat do sn in law.
However, when listening to the opera, Zhang He made a few compliments and heard them in Zhang Ning's ears, but they seemed not very friendly, with a little sourness and hostility.
Coupled with the feeling of meeting at Lu Zhen’s house last time, Zhang Ning became more and more opposed to this person…
In fact, he didn't want to have conflicts with Zhang He. Lu Zhen and Yang Shiqi were not political enemies at all. If it were not necessary, Zhang Ning would not want to fight in the house.
When the actors entered the Yang family, Yang Shiqi immediately understood the general situation when he heard about this.
However, his unquestionable appearance made Luo Mo Niang a little anxious and kept saying good things about Zhang Ning in front of him.
Yang Shiqi touched her beard and smiled and listened to her, still not expressing her attitude.
