The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Zhao Yunchu helped Yunyan bring back the two barrels of bastard. Zheng Ping was about to faint when she saw it, and pointed to several newly delivered tanks in the yard and said, "I just said why someone sent these things. How did you buy so many turtles?"

It's all right to raise a green fur tortoise, what do these ordinary tortoises do?It's not that they are not allowed to raise them. What's the point of raising so many?

Zheng Ping didn't see how much her son liked turtles, so she felt even more strange.

"It's making money, Ma'am." Yun Yan instructed Zhao Yunchu to help him put all the turtles into the tank.

"Make money?" Zheng Ping was a little suspicious, she doubted how the tortoise made money, if someone else said it, she would definitely not believe it, but when it came to her son, she believed [-]% of it.

Ever since Brother Yan was a child, he knew how to generate income for his family. He raised chickens in the bamboo forest, and led his brothers to sell mills and drink music. They were all very smart.

Therefore, since Yunyan said it was to make money, Zheng Ping believed it and thought it was reasonable.

"Aniang, when will your store open?" Yun Yan asked with a smile, "Let me give you some advice."

As soon as she mentioned her nail salon, Zheng Ping became even more excited, "I have already calculated that the seventh day of next month is an auspicious day, so we will choose to open on that day." She muttered again, "Now we are hiring a dance team in Jiaofang, you Brother Hechu happened to give me a detailed review, and I was hesitating whether to ask Yutuhun to leave the team, or the beautiful woman to cut the peony team."

Originally, when a store opened, there wouldn't be so many activities. It was Yun Yanhui's idea for them to make it more lively.He said, our signboards are all written by officials, if we don’t make the scene bigger, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for the officials?

The literature and art of the Song Dynasty is well developed. There are many dance teams in the teaching workshop, with a clear division of labor. Each team has its own fixed program. Naturally, there are various names, many of which are named according to the content of the dance.

Those like the Sword Weapon Team and the Drunken Huteng Team are obviously sword dancers and Huteng dancers, and the Bodhisattva Incense Team has a strong Buddhist overtone.

The Jade Rabbit Hun Tuo team and the Beauty Cut Peony Team mentioned by Zheng Ping represent the dances "Jade Rabbit Hun Tuo" and "Beauty Cut Peony".

The former is an exotic dance introduced from Qiuci to the Central Plains during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. It has been adapted by the Song people and often performed in the court.The latter is a court dance handed down from the Tang Dynasty, named after the dancers holding peonies in their hands.

The two dances have beautiful pictures and show off skills, which are easy to attract onlookers.

In fact, Zheng Ping prefers the latter, peonies are what people like to see, she has already figured it out, she can go to the Daxiangguo Temple to order flowers for the hall - since there are only vegetables in the greenhouses in Kaifeng Mansion.

Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu said in unison: "Choose Yutu and leave the team!"

Zheng Ping wondered, "What's wrong?"

Yunyan smiled back, "I'll call Zhou Shuiniang for you, what better match is 'Jade Rabbit' and 'Chang'e'?"

The concubine is not short of money, and Yun Yan Hui also took a sum of money from Zheng Ping. They also built a pool next to their store, which was prepared for the summer to cool off. In summer, they will install a water fan device.As for the present, Yunyan said that a water stage happened to be temporarily set up in the middle.Because he proposed to make the scene bigger, the natural venue problem should also be solved together.

When Zheng Ping heard it, she immediately understood.Now Zhou Shuiniang's status in Bianjing City is very stable, and she belongs to the group of artists with the highest income. She and Jiaofang's dance team are a new attempt, which will definitely increase the popularity of both parties.

"Of course, it is impossible to specialize in many new programs for one opening, so we have to innovate and achieve different effects with the same money." Yun Yan raised her eyebrows back, "It's not just Xiao Chang'e who wants to be with Yutu Huntu team cooperates, and the other people invited should also be flexible. For example, Brother Zhang Shanren, I will invite him to sing an opera."

This talking artist often talks and sings together. Zhang Shanren has extremely profound skills, or why is he No. 1 in the industry, many people say that his singing is no worse than that of a professional singing artist.Every time he sang, the applause was very high. Yun Yan recalled that this time, he asked him to sing on stage.

Zheng Ping immediately understood what he meant, "There are also the usual partners, you can ask them to switch roles, right?"

"That's what it means!" This kind of program is especially popular even in modern times. It gives people a novel and subversive feeling, and makes people excited involuntarily.

In many cases, even if the actor's performance is not particularly good, the effect is amazing and the atmosphere will be particularly good, which is very suitable for such an occasion.

It is conceivable that after this program, the city of Tokyo can discuss for half a month, and the name of Yusunhong must have been promoted along with it, which can be said to be worth the money.

The more Zheng Ping thought about it, the more she understood, and her smile was all over her face.

"Well... But, there is still a problem, which is the big axis, which one should it be?" Sometimes, too many excellent actors are invited, and it is also very annoying, because I don't know who to ask for the bottom line.

"This, I actually thought about it for you a long time ago." Yun Yan laughed back a few times.

Zheng Ping and Zhao Yunchu were very curious, but Yun Yanhui refused to answer, which made Zheng Ping annoyed, and pulled his ear, insisting that he speak out, so he had to lower his voice and tell the two.

After hearing this, the two were shocked for a long time!

After a long time, Zheng Ping touched Yun Yan's head and said: "You child, I don't know who you followed... How did you come up with these things?"

Zhao Yunchu held back for a while, and said, "You dare!"

"Otherwise, how is this qualified to be a big show?" Yun Yan said with her hands on her hips, "Aniang, if your store doesn't become a hit, it will be unreasonable!"

"Isn't that right, you invited this one out." Zheng Ping said with emotion.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was the opening day of Yusunhong.

Because the Eight Kings' family has been very popular recently and their status has risen, the shop opened by the concubine naturally has many noble ladies and relatives coming to support it. There is no room for seats in the shop, and the teahouse on the opposite side is also booked.

The decoration inside Yusunhong is divided into private rooms, with different sizes. According to Wang Hao and the others, they provide door-to-door service as well as in-store manicures. It takes such a long time to do manicures. It's better to chat side by side.Including various additional services, such as resident performers, meals, etc., they are also well prepared.

Open the windows and curtains, and you can watch the performance on the stage outside the window.

Before the performance started, a lot of people were already crowded outside. All the people from Kaifeng Mansion came to maintain order. Of course, the guards of the Palace were also there, they were just assisting.

These people have heard that there are many famous artists here today who will perform on stage. With Zhou Shuiniang's current social status, let alone seeing them for free, there are not many opportunities to see them with money. They are already focusing on quality rather than quantity.

Small singing, puppet show, talking, drama...

Zhang Shanren, Zhou Shuiniang, Sun Sansi, lay monk of Daxiangguo Temple, Yutuqing left the team...

All big names!

All of them are the top artists in Bianjing City!

On weekdays, one of them is the finale or bottom-up grade, and now they are all on stage, so how can people not look forward to this one?

Not to mention the signboard - the signboard, this is the most important thing, this is written by the official royal pen, don't you see that many scholars are still tasting it?In the eyes of the citizens of Bianjing, this nail shop is about to shine golden.

Zheng Ping and the concubine were very busy with the reception, and Yun Yanhui was also very busy backstage negotiating with the actors, and from time to time had to deal with friends who came over to cheer him on.

As for the artists backstage, they all hang out in one place and basically know each other.

The people outside were muttering excitedly, and they were also muttering excitedly.Because they don't know who will be the last one to appear today.

You look at me, I look at you, ask each other, and in the end, no one knows.

Even Zhang Shanren is just the opening scene, who is this last one?

Who has this qualification?

Everyone evaluated each other in their hearts, and each had their own conclusions, but they were not sure.

They all wanted to ask, but when Yun Yan returned to that guy, no one would say anything, because he wanted to keep it a mystery, and he wasn't sure if someone would leak the news. In this play, surprises are the most important thing.

When the auspicious time arrived, firecrackers were set off outside, and Zhang Shanren came on stage and became the emcee of ceremonies. He first introduced to everyone, then said some auspicious words, and finally saluted, indicating that he was going to perform.

He opened his mouth, but it was not a familiar joke, he——singing a variety show!

The audience in the audience was shocked at first, and then there was a loud applause.

As for those noble ladies, they don't quite understand. Although they can understand opera, they are not very interested in Zhang Shanren, and they didn't go to the washhouse to hear him make jokes.In contrast, male audiences were more excited.

But they could understand the latter program, because it was Yutu Huntuo team and Zhou Shuiniang who came, both of them were very famous, and they even collaborated, but judging from the names, they got along very well.

One dances as the Jade Rabbit Qingtuo Dance, and the other dances as Little Chang'e.

Zhou Shuiniang danced the Jade Rabbit Huntao dance with them first, which was refreshing, and I felt that Zhou Shuiniang really had profound skills, and she was no worse than the dance team in this dance.

In the second half, people from the Jade Rabbit who escaped from the team accompanied Zhou Shuiniang and danced her famous dance, just like Xian'e and Jade Rabbit in Guanghan Palace accompanied Chang'e.

……

With the program one after another, the crowd's slaps are about to be popular.

Today is really worth it, to see so many famous artists who are cross-dressing or cross-border cooperation, each of which makes people want to applaud and tremble with excitement.

Many people don't understand why they are so excited, but they vaguely feel that they are witnessing history.

It is not difficult to imagine that if there are not one or two performances of a similar nature in future large-scale events, it will be embarrassing to say that it will be done well.

The closer it is to the end, the more everyone looks forward to it.

Whether it's the onlookers or the princes and nobles who came to support, they all began to guess, what will this last show be?

In the eyes of countless people looking forward to it, the finale actors bowed and stepped off the stage. They gave warm applause and then stared at the stage closely.Not only them, those actors who have come down are also staring.

Who is it?

Under the eyes of everyone, a monk wearing a monk's robe took the stage slowly.

Many people thought about today's program and guessed it: Zhang Shanren sang the play, and there were no other talking programs in the latter part, and now a monk came up, so the bottom line was a vulgar talk?

The monk has a short gray beard, a benevolent face, and simple clothes. He salutes everyone.

——At this time, some people have already recognized this person, their eyes widened, and they guessed a little, but they couldn't believe it!

It's him?

Is it him?

How could it be him!

The next moment, the old monk smiled slightly, and lightly spit out a self-introduction that instantly blew up the audience: "I know the name of the old monk, and I am the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple..."
