Three Kingdoms King of the North

Still far away from the back hall, Bagu heard the faint voice of people singing from inside.She couldn't help slowing down, and asked Patch curiously, "Housekeeper, did Lord Hou invite people from Lefang to the mansion tonight?"

Bagu's words stunned Patch, he shook his head and said, "No, there are only three people in the back hall, Young Master, Miss Cai and Captain Xiahou."

"But, housekeeper, listen carefully. Someone is clearly singing in the hall." Bagu pointed to the direction of the back hall, and said to Patch, "You said that only the three of them are in the hall, so it's not likely that Lord Hou is there." Shall I sing?"

"Maybe it's Master Hou who is singing." Patch said confidently, "I guess Master Hou invited you here overnight, it must have something to do with the song he sang."

"Housekeeper!" Patch's words aroused Bagu's great curiosity, "Why is Hou Ye suddenly thinking of singing?"

"Bagu, don't ask any more." Patch said with a smile, "Anyway, we're going to the back hall soon, and you'll understand what's going on when you hear what Young Master said."

When the two walked into the back hall, Han Zhan was singing Li Zhaoting's libretto in the section of presenting silver in the back garden "...the warmth and coldness of human beings is too hateful, and the world is so cold and cold. Back then, my father lived in a first-class official, and he often gave favors to Feng Shunqing. Today, he turned his face and did not recognize each other. , bully others and want to divorce..." Seeing Ba Gu following behind Patch, she pointed to the empty space next to her, signaling the two to sit down first, while she continued to sing.

Bagu only thought that Han Zhan's singing was nice, but she didn't know what it was, so she asked Cai Yan curiously, "Miss Cai, I don't know what song Master Hou is singing? This is the first time I heard it, really?" Good to hear."

Cai Yan smiled faintly, and replied in a low voice, "Young Master said he made up the Huangmei Opera, and the name of the song is "Female Consort"."

"Female son-in-law?!" Ba Gu was dumbfounded after hearing Cai Yan's words, and after a long hesitation, she asked back, "Miss Cai, will there be any female son-in-law in this world?"

"I can't explain this matter in a few words, let's continue to listen to the young master's singing." Cai Yan said in a low voice, "When he finishes singing, he will naturally explain why he called you here."

Bagu nodded, closed her mouth, and quietly listened to Han Zhan's Huangmei opera.Huangmei Opera has a simple and smooth singing style, and is known for its bright lyricism and rich expressiveness; its performance is simple and meticulous, and it is famous for its authenticity and liveliness.Han Zhan liked Huangmei Opera very much before traveling, and would listen to it several times when he had time. Over time, those famous Huangmei Operas were familiar to him.Although the level of rapping is not as good as that of professionals, it is more than enough to shock the ancients of this era.

Han Zhan stopped singing until Li Zhaoting was arrested by Feng's father.He took the hot towel that Patch handed over, wiped the sweat off his face, and then called Ba Gu, "Ba Gu, have you heard the Huangmei opera sung by Ben Hou?"

"I heard that, Master Hou sang really well. I never dreamed that Master Hou has such a good voice." Bagu heard Han Zhan asking herself, and hurriedly responded, "I don't know that Master Hou called me here late at night. place, but it has something to do with this Huangmei Opera?"

"Bagu, you guessed it right. Benhou's invitation to come here is indeed related to this matter." Han Zhan walked to the main seat and sat down, looked at Bagu and asked, "Do you have a girl with a good voice under your command?" ? Tomorrow, I will send a few to Benhou, and Benhou will personally teach them to sing this Huangmei Opera."

Chapter 496 The Huangmei Opera that came out ahead of time

How could Ba Gu neglect what Han Zhan ordered, and brought eighteen young and beautiful women to the backyard early the next morning to meet Han Zhan.

After letting the girls stand in the courtyard, she came outside Han Zhan's room and said to Rob who was guarding the door: "Hey, go in and call Anyanghou, and tell him that the person he is looking for will be given to him as a concubine." Brought it."

Rob saw so many girls from the music workshop standing in the courtyard, with a startled expression on his face, he asked Bagu in surprise: "Why is the Hou looking for so many girls from the music workshop? Do you have to make up some songs and dances?" ?”

Bagu looked at Rob with contempt, and said disdainfully: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. My mother told you to invite Lord Hou. What are you doing here, why don't you hurry up."

In front of Bagu, Rob didn't dare to say anything serious. When he heard Bagu's order, he immediately nodded and bowed in agreement, then turned around and ran all the way into the house.

Han Zhan is writing the story and lyrics of "The Female Consort" based on his memory in the room.As soon as I finished writing the content of the first scene, I saw Rob running in from outside.Han Zhan stopped the pen in his hand, looked up at Rob and asked, "Rob, did Bagu bring the person I want?"

"Yes, my lord." Rob quickly replied, "Big Gu and a large group of girls from the band are waiting for you in the courtyard." Rob was very curious about why Han Zhan recruited a group of women from Lefang into the mansion. Relying on being Han Zhan's confidant, he asked with a playful smile, "My lord, I can ask you, why did you recruit so many women from Lefang?" Why, do you have to rehearse some song and dance?"

When Han Zhan heard Rob's question, he knew that Bagu hadn't said anything at home, and he didn't want to waste his time talking about how to perform Huangmei Opera to those girls from the music workshop when he was outside later.He got up and walked to the door, just as he was about to go out, when he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t picked up the things he had written, so he pointed at the paper on the desk and told Rob: “Rob, take those papers and go out with me. "

When they came to the yard, Bagu hurriedly took the lead to salute Han Zhan: "I've seen Lord Hou!"

The [-] women from Lefang who stood behind her followed suit and saluted Han Zhan: "I've seen Lord Hou!"

When Han Zhan saw that all the women kept their heads down after saluting, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, and then ordered, "You all raise your heads and look at me."

Two bold women looked up at Han Zhan, wanting to hear what he had to say next.But soon found that her other companions were still bowing their heads, and hurriedly lowered their heads again.Although it took only a short time for them to raise their heads, Han Zhan had already seen the two of them, and he thought to himself: "Let these two women sing a few words later, if their voices are good, choose from among them." One person will play Feng Suzhen."

"Bagu!" Han Zhan saw that all the girls kept their heads down, so he said to Bagu who was beside him, "Let them all raise their heads, otherwise how can I tell them a joke?"

When Bagu heard what Han Zhan said, she quickly said to the girls: "Didn't you hear what Lord Hou said? You can raise your head as soon as you tell me, no one will blame you for being rude." He raised his head again and looked timidly at Han Zhan standing in front of them.

Seeing all the girls raised their heads, Han Zhan coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said to them: "I called you here today because I have figured out a kind of opera called Huangmei Opera. Come and perform..." He didn't directly tell the girls what "Huangmei Opera" is, but directly told the storyline of "The Female Consort".

When telling the story, Han Zhan noticed that a woman who had raised her head just now had an expression of surprise in her eyes, as if she was very interested in the story of Huangmei Opera and "The Female Son-in-law". He couldn't help thinking to himself: I will sing a section of Huangmei Opera later , and then pick a few women to come out and learn to sing. If this woman can sing well, she will play Feng Suzhen.

After telling the story, Han Zhan tried to sing a part of Feng Suzhen's play: "The spring breeze brings warmth to Xiangyang, and sitting alone by the west window is desolate. His biological mother passed away early in the fairyland, leaving Suzhen girl with infinite sorrow.  … ..."

After singing, Han Zhan glanced at all the girls one by one, then pointed to the girls he liked, and said, "You, you, and you, come to the front." The four women who arrived quickly walked out of the queue and stood together in front of Han Zhan, quietly waiting for Han Zhan's order.

Han Zhan said to them: "You have all listened to Ben Hou's singing just now, now, one by one, you all sing what Ben Hou just sang, and sing it again."

The women in the band may have poorer abilities in other aspects, but they are naturally sensitive to the music and singing. Even after listening to it only once, they can sing very well.The four women who were named came forward and re-sang the opera that Han Zhan had just sung.

In all fairness, these women's singing is more than ten times better than Han Zhan's. Although it is the first time for them to hear Huangmei Opera, the lyrics they sing have a feeling of real Huangmei Opera.

Han Zhan waited for the four of them to finish singing, nodded in satisfaction, then pointed at the woman he was looking forward to, and said, "Benhou thinks you sing the best, so you will sing the role of Feng Suzhen. By the way, what's your name?" name?"

Hearing Han Zhan asking her name, the woman hurriedly bowed and saluted, and replied modestly: "If you go back to Lord Hou, my family name is Zhang, and my nickname is Xiang'er. Thank you for your kindness. My family will definitely live up to your expectations."

Just when Han Zhan was about to say a few more words, a tiger guard army appeared at the gate of the courtyard, clasped his fists and saluted Han Zhan: "My lord, the Jujian army wants to see you!"

Hearing that Jushou had something important to see him, Han Zhan grabbed the manuscript from Rob's hand, stuffed it into Bagu's hand, and said to her: "Bagu, this Marquis has important things to deal with, how to allocate other things?" The role is up to you. This is part of the script, after choosing the role, let them practice according to the above script."

"My lord!" Seeing that Han Zhan was about to walk outside, Bagu said in a panic, "I'm afraid I can't do this well."

"You assign roles first," Han Zhan said without looking back as he walked outside, "When Benhou comes back later, if he finds anything wrong, he will help you make adjustments."

When I came to the hall, I saw that Jushou had been waiting for a long time.After Han Zhan greeted Jushou, he asked straight to the point: "Gongyu, what's the urgent matter to report to the Marquis?"

"Report to my lord!" After saluting Han Zhan, Ju Shou took out a roll of paper from his sleeve, and said to Han Zhan: "The subordinate sent a spy to monitor Liu Xuande to report that Liu Xuande and his two righteous brothers are planning to go north to Youzhou and go to seek refuge. Gongsun Zan."

"Gongsun Zan's vitality is seriously weakened now, even with Liu Xuande's help, I'm afraid it will be difficult." Han Zhan was not worried about Liu Guanzhang and the three who left, so he said disapprovingly, "Let him go."

Seeing that Han Zhan was so indifferent to this matter, Ju Shou couldn't help but feel a little anxious: "Master, Liu Xuande's ears hang down to his shoulders, his hands are above his knees, his eyes can look after his own ears, his face is like a crown of jade, and his lips are like fat. It is said that he has the appearance of an emperor. , if it is not removed early, it will become a disaster in the long run."

When Han Zhan met Liu Bei for the first time, he observed Liu Bei carefully, and found that he only had a pair of protruding ears. If the ears really dropped to the shoulders, he would be a pig.As for the hands above the knees, it is congenital Marfan syndrome, which is a hereditary connective tissue disease with autosomal dominant inheritance. The disease is characterized by slender and uneven limbs, fingers, and toes.The medicine of this era is backward, and this special disease is not understood yet, so it is ridiculous to call it the appearance of the emperor far-fetchedly.

"Don't worry, Gongyu. The Marquis said that Liu Xuande can't be successful, so he will definitely not be successful." Han Zhan said with a sneer, "Even if he arrives in Youzhou, it will not be easy for him to make a comeback."
