Empress

Chapter 39

The play on the stage stopped, and the two actors withdrew from the stage.Rong Cheng took a light breath, "I won't."

Guan Hongfeng smiled: "Didn't you learn it in Longyue Mansion, didn't Director Ji teach you these things?" Rong Cheng remained silent, not wanting to offend the emperor at this moment.

But the more he ignored him, the more Guan Hongfeng would not let him go, and smiled sarcastically, "I forgot, you only learned operas, and you have never learned the treasure of tasting flowers." Here, I will ask Eunuch Yang to bring Hua Baojian over later, you should study hard these days, and then sing it to me on the stage." Rong Cheng opened his mouth, and Guan Hongfeng knew what he was going to say, coldly Said: "If you can't learn it, I will send you back to Longyue Mansion and let Director Ji come to teach you." After finishing speaking, Guan Hongfeng got up and said to the class leader: "Find an actor to play with him." Answer: "Yes."

Guan Hongfeng left, leaving Rongcheng alone on the stage.

The troupe leader took Rongcheng to Liyuan, where the theater troupe temporarily lived these days, and he was arranged to live in a simple house with no ventilation on all sides, just like when he returned to Longyue Mansion.There was also a boy about fourteen or fifteen years old in the room, who stood a little awkwardly when he saw the two of them coming.The class leader introduced: "This is Cassia, the actor in our troupe, half a pillar."

It was him who sang Dou E's injustice on stage today. After washing off the heavy makeup, he was almost unrecognizable. His face was childish, and his eyes were as clear and clean as a deer.The class leader said to Rongcheng: "After that, he will act with you." Jue Ming nodded towards Rongcheng with some embarrassment.

Rongcheng averted his eyes coldly, sat on the edge of the bed, and stared out of the window in a daze.

Jue Ming next to him scratched his head, not knowing that this person was so cold-tempered that he didn't dare to speak again after being deflated.Half an hour later, Eunuch Yang came to Jiaofang.

He waved his hand, and the little eunuch behind him put the treasures of appreciating flowers and Rongcheng's change of clothes on the table.

Yang Gong said on behalf of the bus: "The emperor ordered, let Longju learn hard in the opera troupe, and he will come to listen to you singing opera in a few days." Rong Cheng looked at the books on the table with cold eyes.

After Eunuch Yang left, Rong Cheng didn't intend to go forward to touch it, Jue Ming stepped forward to open it curiously, two blushes appeared on his cheeks, and he pulled back as if his hands were scalded.Jueming turned back and said, "Did that father-in-law...take the wrong one?" Rong Cheng said indifferently: "That's right, this is the opera that the emperor asked us to sing." Jueming's face turned pale, and he turned and ran out of the house.

Rong Cheng sat by the bed and saw that Cassia Ming was outside and seemed to have gone out to talk to the class leader. The class leader looked solemn and touched Cassia Ming's head.After a while, Jue Ming came back dejectedly.Rong Cheng guessed that he didn't want to take part in this scene.

I'm afraid there are not many people in this world who can accept Guan Hongfeng's perverted hobbies.

Jueming returned to the bed, clutched at his clothes hesitantly, and asked hesitantly: "Do you want to sing?" Rong Cheng said indifferently: "If you don't sing, you will lose your head, which one do you choose?" He turned his face and murmured, not daring to speak again.Rong Cheng didn't scare him anymore, took clean clothes and went to take a shower and change.

There is no master in the pear garden, the maids take a bath together, and the eunuchs stay together, although Rong Cheng is someone who serves the emperor, but he is nameless and has the same status as a servant, so naturally he is not like in Chenghuan Palace.In the dark night, when Rong Cheng came to Liyuan for the first time, he got lost.

He walked to the rockery and was about to turn around when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him. He turned his head and saw the person behind him, he was startled suddenly.Guan Hengyu came out from behind the rockery.Rong Cheng was surprised and said, "Why is the prince here?"

Guan Hengyu's deep eyes were unpredictable, he covered his mouth, coughed twice, "Come out to digest food."

Rong Cheng looked around, only Guan Hengyu was alone, not even the little eunuch beside him.Unreasonable.

Rong Cheng didn't think about why Guan Hengyu came to the Liyuan. One must know that Buliutang is a long way from the Liyuan, and he didn't even bring a eunuch with him.Guan Hengyu's face was indifferent, "Longji, why are you here?" Rong Cheng lowered his eyes, staring at the gravel under his feet, "The emperor asked me to learn opera here." Guan Hengyu nodded lightly without any surprise.The two were speechless for a while, and their relationship was like strangers.Rong Cheng said, "I'll go first."

Before Guan Hengyu could speak, Rong Cheng passed by him, as if he heard the sound of clenched fists.After walking around, I finally found a place to bathe and change clothes.

At this time, the night was quiet and no one was taking a bath, so Rong Cheng found a wooden bucket that had not been used for a long time in the corner, rinsed it, put in the water, and took off his clothes.He turned his back to the door, and didn't realize that the wooden door behind him opened silently, a black figure approached, and suddenly hugged Rong Cheng into his arms.Rong Cheng was startled, turned his head suddenly, and it was Guan Hongfeng who came.

He didn't know when Guan Hongfeng came to Liyuan, let alone if he saw him talking to Guan Hengyu.

It was rare to see Rongcheng showing a panicked expression, Guan Hongfeng couldn't help feeling suspicious, and frowned, "Why do you look like this, did you do something to offend me?" Rongcheng observed Guan Hongfeng's expression, if he really saw him and Guan Heng Jade together, it is impossible to be so indifferent.A hanging heart returns to its place.

Rong Cheng pushed Guan Hongfeng, "I was just scared by you."

Guan Hongfeng narrowed his eyes, unwilling to let go, "Could you have found Yantou behind my back?" Rong Cheng struggled to break away from Guan Hongfeng's hand, "Madman, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Looking at the pinched wrist, Guan Hongfeng glanced at a ray of gloom, and said in a deep voice: "I heard that the class leader arranged for you to live with an actor?"

Rong Cheng turned his aching wrist and hummed lightly.

Guan Hongfeng turned away Rong Cheng's face and stared into his eyes, "How does that actor look like?" There was undisguised suspicion in his eyes, if Rong Cheng told the truth, he would definitely suffer.He didn't want to cause trouble, so he lied without changing his face: "It's full of pockmarks, it's ugly." Guan Hongfeng felt relieved now.

It is expected that there are no good-looking actors on the stage.

Guan Hongfeng pinched Rongcheng's chin threateningly, "If you dare to apologize to me, let's see how I deal with you."

There was not even a candle in the room, and the thin moonlight outside the window shone on Rong's naked body, white and smooth, like a piece of tofu. Guan Hongfeng's breath suddenly became heavy.He pressed Rong Cheng on the barrel, and untied the dragon robe.

It was rare for Rong Cheng not to struggle, he knew he couldn't hide, so instead of lingering and suffering, it's better to let Guan Hongfeng taste the sweetness and leave quickly to avoid being discovered.A dignified emperor, like an adulterer who has an affair, is not afraid of outsiders' jokes when it spreads.

Perhaps his meekness flattered the emperor, but Guan Hongfeng was a little more gentle, but Rongcheng was still unbearable, thin beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, he covered his mouth tightly with his hands, and swallowed his voice back into his stomach.In the middle of the night, Guan Hongfeng, who was in a good mood, straightened his dragon robe and left.

Rong Cheng didn't even have the strength to take a bath, so he lay down on the wooden bucket to rest for a while, picked up a water ladle, scooped up some cold water to rinse his body, put on his clothes, and left.When I got back to the house, there was still candlelight burning inside.

Caesar hadn't slept yet, and as soon as he saw Rong Cheng came back, he immediately sat up from the bed, "You're back." Rong Cheng didn't have much strength, his walking was sloppy, and his answering voice was weaker.He sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to unbutton his coat.

Jueming was about to ask him if he was lost and came back so late, but before he could speak, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at the bite mark on Rong Cheng Baijiu's neck.

It was clear that it didn't exist when I went out.

Seemingly aware of the gaze beside him, Rong Cheng turned his head and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?" Jueming turned his eyes away guiltily, his throat was dry, "No...it's nothing." Saying that, he jumped off the bed and blew out the Candlelight, ran back to the bed and lay down like a corpse.Rong Cheng frowned slightly, didn't think much, put the clothes beside the pillow, and closed his eyes to sleep.There was a dead silence in the room.However, Cassia couldn't fall asleep anyway.

In the early morning of the second day, Jueming and Rongcheng rehearsed the opera, he was familiar with it, so naturally he was the one to teach.But the things in the book are really unsightly.

Jue Ming blushed, "It's the first time I've sung this kind of opera." Rong Cheng ruthlessly poured cold water on him, "You'll get used to it in the future."

At the beginning, he also thought that his majestic ninth-five-year-old had become a forbidden man, and he would definitely not be able to survive, but now he is still alive.As long as there is one life, nothing is impossible.

The two of them looked at the treasure book of appreciating flowers for a day in the room, and when they looked up again, it was already dark.Caesar went out and came back with some steamed buns.

After filling their stomachs, the two continued to watch, and they didn't blow the lamp to rest until midnight.

Jueming found that although Rong Cheng looked cold, he was actually warm-hearted. Although he joined the troupe from a young age and was guided by a master, he still couldn't read many words, so he had the cheek to ask Rong Cheng, and Rong Cheng was willing to teach him .

Once they came and went, the relationship between the two became much closer.On this day, Jueming said, "Longju, why don't we rehearse?"

Although the two of them were familiar with Pin Hua Bao Jian, they had never confronted each other about opera, and the emperor sent someone to ask them a few times, urging them to hurry up.Rong Cheng thinks it makes sense, after finishing the opera, he can go back to Chenghuan Palace sooner.So the two hit it off.

There is a passage in the book, a man wants to play with a woman, and after entering the house, after having tea, he has to do business, so Rong Cheng pretends to be a man, Jue Ming pretends to be the woman, and they sing opera.After all, Rongcheng is not a drama actor who has been practicing singing for many years. If he doesn't sing well, he looks like he is studying.

Jueming was afraid that the emperor would blame him, so he thought about it. A thought flashed in his mind, and a blush appeared in his ears, "How about we sing while acting?" Rong Cheng paused, "Act?"②

Jueming nodded, and said embarrassingly, "Just act according to the book."

Rong Cheng thought about it, but he was just acting on the occasion, maybe he could sing the opera better quickly, so he agreed.

The two came to the bed, Jue Ming was lying under him, Rong Cheng pressed the man in the book, lifted his legs and put them on his shoulders.Just as he was about to speak, the door suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Guan Hongfeng originally wanted to see how the two of them were rehearsing, but he didn't expect to see Rong Cheng pressing Cassia Ming under him, and his face was terribly dark when he saw Rong Cheng's sloppy posture.
