Jiayu Village of Red Mansions

If you show your face, if you are appreciated by His Majesty, you will have a bright future. A few days ago, I heard from my mother that Baoyu's knowledge has improved. I only hope that he can live up to his expectations.The Rongguo Mansion looks glamorous on the outside, but she is very clear about what is going on inside. Looking at the past, no one can support the family. Baoyu has won the holy favor.

Shui Zhan had some doubts about Jia Baoyu in his heart. Originally, with his cautious character, he had to investigate Jia Baoyu's details, but Shui Zhan's longing for Yucun had been deeply rooted in his heart, and he couldn't tolerate any more hesitation.

Going straight all the way to the front of the XX hall, sitting in front of the imperial case in the middle, Shui Zhan looked suspiciously at Jia Baoyu, who was out of breath because his highness couldn't keep up with him, and couldn't help feeling a little suspicious of his own thoughts just now , How can Yucun be such a refined and dusty character, how can he be so timid!Thinking of this, Shui Zhan became more and more disinterested in paying attention to Jia Baoyu, and only continued to review the memorials on the imperial case that were about to pile up into a hill.In this way, after more than an hour, Jia Baoyu's legs trembled, and cold sweat flowed from his temples.

Just when Jia Baoyu was about to faint from fear and exhaustion, Su Peisheng, who had followed Shui Zhan's order to go out to find Monk Wen Jue, came in and whispered something to Shui Zhan.Shui Zhan's eyes, which were still like a pool of cold water just now, suddenly trembled, he waved his hand to signal Su Peisheng to prepare first, and turned to Jia Baoyu, "Are you the younger brother of Concubine Xiande?"

Jia Baoyu was already terrified, but now when Shui Zhan spoke suddenly, Jia Baoyu fell to the ground in fright.Seeing this, Shui Zhan frowned deeply. These so-called children of the rich and powerful in the imperial court were too disrespectful, so he waved his hands impatiently and said, "Su Peisheng, leave Mr. Jia to rest and change gears." clothes!"

Su Peisheng nodded knowingly, waved his hands and ordered several young eunuchs to help Jia Baoyu to the side hall that had been prepared earlier, brought Jia Baoyu a cup of tea himself, and said, "Mr. Jia, wait a moment, let's have a cup of tea first! "

Since Jia Baoyu entered the palace, all the people he met were like the monks in the temple. They were menacing and frightening. Even his own sister didn't tell him to run around. It was really uncomfortable. Now seeing Su Peisheng smiling kindly, like a grandmother Generally amiable, he smiled, thanked him, and slowly drank the cup of tea to suppress his shock.

Perhaps it was frightened and a little tired, after a while, Jia Baoyu felt heavy eyelids and wanted to sleep, thinking that he was in the palace, so he just had to bear it, but he fell asleep after a while!

At this time, Monk Wen Jue, who had been waiting behind the screen, came out with a compass in his hand. Seeing this, Su Peisheng asked in a low voice, "Master, how are you?"

Wen Jue nodded with a smile on his face. This Jia Baoyu has two magnetic fields in his body, and he is a person with two souls. It is very likely that it has something to do with the lost soul of Prince An.

Su Peisheng was very happy when he heard the words, he repeatedly asked the Buddha to bless him, and walked out of the side hall to report to Shui Zhan.

six times

It is said that Yinglian was in a coma due to Yucun, and she was depressed all day long. She was often distracted in class, and she was called up by her husband in a daze. As a good sister, Zhang Wen finally couldn't stand it anymore. She picked a good day and asked her husband for leave. Son, go out and play.

June is the hottest time in the capital, and Zhang Wen didn't want to go out to suffer when the sun was the hottest. She didn't go out until the sun was getting dark and the sky was cooler.

Both Zhang Wen and Ying Lian hide in the deep boudoir on weekdays. It can be said that Kong Zhang has been in his teens. The pony prong, at first he knew how to hide in fear, but after a while he became bolder, wandering here and there.

Because the Empress Dowager likes to listen to operas, Kunqu Opera flourished in the capital at some time. There are many large and small opera gardens in the capital, brightly lit, all night long. Together with the Eight Great Hutongs, they have become two must-see places for people in the capital to go to nightlife.Although Zhang Wen has a bright temper and good skills, she can't get close to idlers, but Zhang Tingyu's family education is very strict, and Zhang Wen is never allowed to go out at night. So he came up with the idea of ​​going to the playground.

As soon as Zhang Wen came up with this idea, Zhang Wen encouraged Yinglian to go to the theater. Although Yinglian was used to listening to operas at home, she really had no experience of listening to operas in this theater garden outside. I really couldn't hold back my curiosity, thinking that it would be nothing to listen to a play outside, so I hesitated and nodded in agreement.

When Zhang Wen saw that Yinglian agreed, she was very happy. When she saw a pastry shop next to her, she asked the guy behind the counter how many catties of tea and fruit snacks she had ordered, and asked, "My brother, my brother and I are from Beijing Juzi who came here for the exam, I heard that the Qingyin class in the capital is very famous, do you know where the most famous "Qingyin class" in the capital is?"

Hearing this, the guy looked Zhang Wen up and down, thinking that the young man looked like a dog, but he didn't expect that he was also a flirt, and he wanted to go to the brothel to have fun when he came to the capital. The shopkeeper was right, look One cannot just look at the surface!Thinking this way in his heart, the guy said on the surface: "Young master is really a romantic person, but the 'Qingyin Xiaoban' in our capital is not comparable to the Jiangnan water town. The small ones have no money to go there. Those who waited to see Fengya, only heard that the 'Li Garden' in the capital is the best, and it is not convenient to get here, but it is in the south of the city, you'd better take a carriage!"

It turns out that although Zhang Wen has been out of the house several times more than Yinglian, no one has the courage to tell Zhang Zhongtang's precious daughter about the dirty places in the capital. When Zhang Wen ran out of the house to play, she heard many times People talk about how elegant this "Qing Yin Xiaoban" is and how good its singing is, and because the name is misleading, they always think it is a theater.

It is said that after Zhang Wen heard what the guy said, she told the coachman who was waiting for customers on the side of the road, and then went to the "Li Garden".

The coachmen in the capital are usually well-trained, and within half an hour, the two of them arrived at their destination. Before they got off the car, they heard the sound of playing lyrics and singing outside into their ears. In the lower part of the sky, it whispered like swallow language, full of endless affection, the two nodded secretly after listening to it, but it was more charming than what they heard at home, it seems that what they did was true!

After getting off the carriage, the whole street was brightly lit, and even the rare glazed revolving lantern was turning, reflecting seven-color neon lights, and Yinglian and Zhang Wen admired it again and again.When I looked up, I saw the big characters "Liyuan" written on the plaque sprinkled with red background, majestic, with an indescribable romantic attitude.Two handsome young servants stood at the entrance to greet the guests. Zhang Wen and Yinglian were born in the family of princes, and their temperament and clothing were outstanding, but the young servant seemed not used to it, entertaining the two of them and the chubby man The general attitude of the nouveau riche.

As soon as you enter the small building, the entrance is a lobby, and the entrance is a stage with tumbling water sleeves on the top, like a fairy descending to the mortal world, and a group of spectators sitting around at the bottom, drinking tea and holding folding fans. It is not like ordinary theaters eating melon seeds. , the chaotic sound of applause, the surrounding back-shaped corridors, the carvings and dyeing are very exquisite, almost comparable to the palace, the three-story small building, every few feet is a door, and the words "Liuyun", " "Spring" and other elegant names, the two people who saw it were amazed.

I found a good seat in the lobby and sat down, and nodded to the two middle-aged spectators with outstanding temperament on the table next to me. Zhang Wen put the tea fruit on the table and ordered another pot of Biluochun.At this time, the water sleeve dance on the stage ended, and a rather handsome man walked onto the stage holding a guqin in his hand, and the clever young man had already set up stools, tables, tables and other things for him.Ying Lian looked at this person, he was not young, although he was well maintained, he was in a trance, only felt an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

He could only hear him touch the strings with his little finger to test the sound. When the piano sounded, there was no sound in the venue. At the beginning, the sound of the piano was not loud, like singing softly, like crying. A goose feather scratches in my heart as if scratching, and suddenly the peak turns around, like a mountain waterfall hitting a rock, majestic, the water waterfall suddenly falls, and I try my best to express my spirit of thousands of times, like a flying snake in the middle of the 36th peak of Huangshan. Circling and interspersing.In an instant, I went around several times, and when the crowd was confused, I suddenly heard a golden sound, and everyone was silent.

The crowd around seemed to have recovered from the astonishing song, and they applauded thunderously. A handsome bearded man sitting next to Zhang Wen stood up leisurely from his seat at this time, and said to the other person: "Wei Shan, listen to the song." I'm not coming back tonight!"

The man heard that he seemed to have something to say, and said, "Brother Shen, have you forgotten what you said about the theater?"

The beautiful bearded man smiled when he heard the words, and said: "Wei Shan, I just admire the breeze and have nothing to do with Yucun. Look at your blushing face. Tell me about your position as the county magistrate. It's nothing more than working for ten years, and now it's so boring to return to Beijing to report on work, life should be enjoyed in time, you should learn from me!"

The man surnamed Shen was obviously not good at words, his face was flushed red and he didn't say a word for a while.

Ying Lian had seen the man playing the piano on the stage very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before, her mind was no longer on the tune, and now when she heard her father's name mentioned by the neighbor, her head suddenly lit up, it turned out that the man on the stage The person who played the piano, Zhang Xiang, was seven to eight points similar to his father!

After calming down, Yinglian got up from the table, walked to the man surnamed Shen sitting next to her, bowed her hands together and said, "This gentleman, do you know my father?"

The man surnamed Shen
