Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Chapter 242

After the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the banquet in the palace ended, but the Jinyiwei drama of the Gao Eunuchs platoon was about to begin.

Xu and Liu, the two bachelors in charge of the academy, are serious figures. They don't like to listen to dramas, and they don't restrain the romantic talents in the academy. They just reminded: "This big drama is proclaimed very lively. Go and see, maybe there is a science and technology officer in it. You have to be self-confident when you go, don't make any romantic accusations, and commit the crime in the hands of Yushi and Yushi."

All the bachelors, attendants, lectures, composers, editors, reviews, and even Shujishi all only agreed to ensure that they would only eat and drink there at night, listen to new plays, and never do anything to lose the face of the Imperial Academy.

When they heard that the garden was still owned by Huang's family in Nanguan, they were sure that it was as lively and intense as the two general elections in Ju'anzhai, and there were people in the courtyard full of dwarf and ebony-not to mention there were no people in the garden. Kauki and his like, that is, they are too busy to line up to vote, who can care about it!

Everyone brought new clothes, sachets, and perfumes to sprinkle on their bodies. The original solemn and solemn official hall was like the New Year, and the colorfully dressed officials were decorated with festive colors.

This play has a total of 15% off, sing one fold every night, and sing one more fold the wedge on the first day, which can be sung until September. However, the senior **** has a wealth of wealth, and only need to buy a ticket for the 15% discount show. This time, guests who have watched the show can receive the next show ticket before they leave, but the ticket is not allowed to be folded or defaced, otherwise it is not allowed next time. Enter, but also have to spend money to repurchase.

After watching the first two scenes, there were secretly commenting articles about this big drama of Jin Yiwei.

Guozijian, Shuntianfu School, Wanping, Daxing County School and other places have learned and copied and circulated, and they are picky about the source of the props in the Zaju, the color scheme and the original color pictures. There are those who are picky about Yao Qianhu's positive eye makeup, those who are picky about An Qianhu's are too tall, and those who are picky about the size of Xu Qianhu are too close in age, and don't have the feeling of the original elder brother and child...

The comments are surging and murderous. Where an article is criticized today, the article will be rehabilitated tomorrow; there will be an actor who wins praise from a talented person today, and someone will be critical from head to toe tomorrow; as for exploring the hidden secrets, the characters in the play will be compared with real characters one by one. It is endless.

Cui Xie was sitting in the imperial court and drafting the "Records of the Pure Emperor Jinxianzong". He didn't hear about things outside the window, and he saw a few lines on the desk of Jiang Xiu in the same room to refute outsiders' criticism of acting Xiao Xuqian. Hu's stature is stout, not like a boy's writing.

That Jiang Xiu was a scholar in the 14th year of Chenghua, and now he is in his 40s and 50s. He is more energetic than a young man when he is pinched up. The article is written with dragons and phoenixes, which is better than the typeface used when compiling the record. Much fresher.

Xiao Xu Qianhu had a "pearl inverted curtain" martial arts show on the stage. His actor was strong in martial arts, and his feet were hanging upside down from the built eaves. Hanging upside down on the stage for a long time is still not good. Does not move and does not tremble in the waist. It's just that this person is a bit thicker and taller, and he is no different from Da Xu Qianhu, and has received a lot of criticism in the day. Jiang Xiuzan didn't know who he was discussing with, refuting the criticism of his body, and arguing that this body skill is the most rare. In comparison, the body is thinner and thicker, and the face is tender and older. They are not worth mentioning. Thing!

Jin Yiwei's comic strip hasn't created such a strong limelight today. It is true that the real person is the most popular!

Cui Xie couldn't help but secretly imitate his colleagues. In addition to entering the actual record table, he also commented on the difference between the art form of live-action opera and comic strip as the original author. Wang Zhuangyuan even wrote several articles "On the Non-Kitsch of Anhu Women's Clothing" and "Refuting an Old Mr.'s Comment on An Qianhu's Temperament", analyzing An Qianhu's chivalrous psychology from head to toe.

On the fourth day of the new play, after Cui Hanlin was recommended by Datang's Wang Zhuangyuan, the current Wang Zhuangyuan incidentally wrote a biography of the famous poet Wang Wei.

There is a play every night, a batch of essays during the day, causing ripples and sparks in the literati circle in Beijing. I don’t know how many original authors wore thick vests to write short essays, and I don’t know how many high-ranking households bought and praised the play. The speculation made the play become hotter day by day and more viewers. There are also theatrical troupes who quietly watch the show and steal the teacher, order props and learn to rehearse.

The Gao Baihu who inspired this trend has never been proud.

He remained sensible despite the sparing efforts of his own-employed literati, and humbly accepted the opinions that criticized their new play. Not only did he accept it, he even stopped Cui Xie when the audience was eating at a stall outside the show before the show started, and pulled him backstage to ask the stage design expert for his opinion.

Expert Cui looked at the blue silk seawater that covered the stage; several big guys on the side of the stage pressed hard to blow under the silk to create a wave effect blower; the lights and reflectors at the upper and lower corners of the stage; the outside was tied with colored paper and the inside was installed It's a big boat that can be carried by a flat car...

Piling pieces are rare works of art under the contemporary technology level.

Gao Baihu pointed to his newly-developed props and asked nervously, "How is this boat doing? Brother Cui Xian, tell me the truth, can the painter's plan be able to control how he paints? I’m afraid I’m making this treasure ship, and he will look back and draw something different in the painting, and someone will pick something wrong again!"

Cui Xie understood his thoughts and chuckled, "What's so different about boats? Don't we Daming always use this kind of rigid sailboat that can make six winds? The left is just bigger and smaller, and the exterior decoration is slightly different. That's it. The painter has never seen a serious boat, painted or somewhat wrong, the gentleman outside knows a lot, and if you point it out to everyone, the world will naturally laugh at him and not at you."

Those who know a little, it happens that you, an expert who has been researched, ask someone to write an article to popularize science, so that they can be popular again.

Although he didn't clarify what he said, Gao Baihu has already done the job of buying essays and dramas, so he can get through, and he doesn't worry about anything. He smiled and said to Cui Xie: "Looking back, the pictures in my hand are also called A copy of the description is sent to the treasurer of the plan. The virtuous brother does not take the foolish brother as an outsider, how can the foolish brother be willing to cause your people to do something wrong and be guided by others?"

Cui Xie really wanted to see what the big ship of the Ming Dynasty was like. Zheng He’s treasure ship is out of sight, so it’s better to look at the lower-grade military ships. He smiled slightly and said unceremoniously: "I have thanked Brother Gao, the author of the comic strip on behalf of Jin Yiwei."

Gao Baihu repeatedly said "No thanks", but craned his neck and asked him: "I have been difficult to ask Xian brothers. Today, our brothers are talking privately. Can you tell me that the pseudonyms bouldering? , Shuixi, Longquan...Who is it?"

He promised that he would only know that he had enjoyed it, and would never tell anyone-except for his father, the eunuch!

However, Cui Xie only smiled mysteriously: "It's not time to talk about it yet." When the adults assembled their lifetime articles in their later years, they might have collected them. They just don't want to pick up the vest, and they will write a memoir when he gets old, and he will be buried in the future to help future historians decipher it.

Gao Baihu didn't ask the author after all, but think about his zaju before, and the comics have to be painted according to the big ships and guns he made, still feeling a little proud, humming the new song back to check the stage.

It doesn't matter if you can't find a talented person who writes a book, it's enough to find a talented person who writes articles and plays with him!

The new drama has swept the entire capital, and anyone who is intimate with Cui Xiezhan can go to see a few for nothing. Only the two young masters of the Cui family were still serving their grandmother in the countryside, waiting for their father to return, and had no chance to participate in this grand event.

Although the two pupils were separated from his eyes and ears, they still couldn't escape studying.

Since they entrusted Cui Que and his grandmother to the countryside, Cui Xie has been worried that the selfish and petty old man would teach him the children he had been trained so easily, so he wrote a letter and asked him to actually enlighten his teacher Lin. Mr. taught them.

——Mr. Lin is now the first teacher in Qian'an. Those who can study with him are either rich or noble, and they are all good students with good career prospects. If it weren’t for him to be Mr. Lin’s most proud disciple, he would be at the level of Brother Heng, who wouldn’t even accept it, and it would be useless to give any gifts!

Cui Xie didn’t mention the prosperity of Beijing in half a word in his letter, and there was always only the word “advise to learn”, telling them not to be afraid of hard work. No less, you have to give him a copy every few days.

Two elementary school students are suffering in the country. The original plan was to return to Beijing after the one-year filial piety period, but his father was sent to prison before returning to Beijing, and he was sent out from prison to Yulin Nano, the border gate, but he did not return for half a year. Their eldest brother couldn't go away as an official in the Hanlin Academy. The two younger ones had to serve their grandmother in Qian'an. They bumped into the city to study every day, hoping that their father would return early and let them return to Beijing.

Until the sixth day of September, the Jinyiwei atmosphere in Beijing was blown to Qian'an, and Cui Que finally had news. But the sickness was lingering, his legs were weak and it was difficult to move, and there was an alchemist with the bones of immortality beside him, who said that he could cure the disease, and he couldn't leave that way for a moment.

Cui Xie sent a letter to welcome his servant to Cui Mansion in the capital city, but he couldn't take the man who was ordered to return to his place of origin and brought him back to the mansion. He had to hire a car and bring medicine to send him back home. .

Master Cui's illness is unusual.

He had been invaded by the cold and wet air in the imprisonment, and when he went to the border, the dozens of boards were beaten to the ground, hurting his bones. But when it was time for meticulous healing and treatment, they had no money on their bodies, so they had to rely on selling things all the way, and came back hungry. The injuries on their legs never healed, their skin and flesh were dry, and they were unable to walk.

When I went there, it was too long for fifty days, but it took more than three months to come back. When I got home, everyone had lost more than ten catties. Master Cui was even weaker and unable to stand up. The Cui family went to welcome their families in batches after batches. There were several groups of people who met them and didn't recognize them. Life and life delayed Master Cui's rescue for several days.

Fortunately, they were lucky, and they met a Taoist priest who was wandering around and gave Master Cui a golden pill, which made him look ruddy and refreshed. The man also told Master Cui that his previous life and this life had a cause and effect, and that he had a hurdle in his life. He only needs to cultivate his character for a few years, and to nourish his merits, he can get a gift with the merits of his descendants.

This Taoist priest straddled Taoism and Buddhism. He has excellent eloquence. He speaks about the accumulation of merits and the emergence of ascension as if he is within reach. Master Cui is convinced, regardless of his embarrassment that he can't even eat. He wants to keep him. Consecrated at home. When the Cui family finally recognized them and his party, the Taoist priest had become the inseparable master beside the master and followed them to Qian'an.

Cui Xie looked at the manners and words of the Taoist priest in the letter, and subconsciously felt that he was the undercover undercover Xie Ying had placed next to Cui Que, and couldn't help but turn his eyes to the Xie Mansion two blocks away.

But because there are family members standing in front of them, it is inconvenient for people to go there, so they can only tell them: "Since the master is around, our family can't neglect. Give him some money to cut clothes, buy food, and let him live with the master. Together, the two princes moved to the far yard. The rest of the people over there don’t have to come back in a hurry. It’s important to serve the old lady and the master and stare at the two princes for me to read.

Also... the family has Taoist priests, and this year Qingzhutang has printed several Taoist scriptures for sale.
