Because Jia Qiang is now in charge of the female drama, he has a serious job, and because Jia Rong also has a serious job in the palace, he also lacks the companions of cockfighting lackeys and flowers and willows. He has become more honest recently.
Quite a few.
At this time, he spread his hands and said;
"This is what Uncle Lian sent me. He said these four plays are unlucky and he asked them to remove them from the play list last night. I dare not not listen."
The senior officer was dissatisfied, but he did not dare to say anything more.
At this moment, the eunuch just now ran over again and said that the empress ordered four plays:
The first play is "Wandering in the Garden" from "The Peony Pavilion"; the second play is "Qin Tiao" from "The Story of the Jade Hairpin"; the third play is "Sifan" from "The Story of Nie Hai"; the fourth play is "The Bed Full of Wat"
"Wat Circle".
Jia Qiang hurriedly gathered everyone to act.
When the young official heard that he had his own special song "Sifan", he immediately became energetic and said with a smile:
"Although this play is good-looking, it's just singing and acting, and I don't have a moment to relax. But you want to see my real skills."
She was happy and smiled again:
"These plays ordered by the empress are indeed very auspicious.
Especially "Wat Circle", it says that Guo Ziyi's sixtieth birthday was celebrated, his grandson won the first prize, his seven sons and eight sons-in-law were all in prominent positions, the emperor gave a birthday banquet, the princes and officials came to celebrate his birthday, and the house was full of things on the bed.
It’s Wat Ban, and there’s no show more lively and rich than this one.”
.
Everyone backstage here is busy acting, and they can't be idle on the stage. There are already big flower-faced Kuiguan and small flower-faced bean official wearing masks of God of Joy, wearing red robes and soap boots, holding "Heavenly Official's Blessing" in each hand.
"The cloth banner, a man holding a huge golden ingot in his hand, first went up and made a set of "Tiaojiaguan" amidst the lively sound of gongs and drums.
Yuan Chun looked at it interestingly, smiled and said to Jia Mu:
"The palace also went to the theater, but there was no such interesting opening."
Seeing that Yuanchun really asked this question, Jia Mu followed Jia Lian's previous instructions and answered with a smile:
"This was all when Lian Er's daughter-in-law went to Tianjin Weishuan's "Baby Brother" and saw that the opera troupe there would perform such an auspicious play on the stage before the show started. It looked interesting, so she asked the teacher at home to do it
After learning it, I will teach it to these little actors and wait until the queen comes to act."
As expected, Yuanchun then asked:
"What is 'Big Brother Tie Doll'?"
After listening to Jia Mu's detailed account of Wang Xifeng's interesting process of going to Tianjin's Empress Dowager Palace to make a wish for a child, and also hearing that Wang Xifeng was really pregnant after asking for a child, Yuanchun couldn't help but look envious, and turned to Wang Xifeng, who was standing behind Jia Mu.
Tao:
"I didn't know my brother-in-law was pregnant. I've been standing here for a long time. Is there anything I can do about her?"
.
Wang Xifeng has been waiting for this sentence since Yuanchun walked in.
Yuanchun didn't say anything, so she couldn't get past the old lady, Mrs. Xing, and Mrs. Wang to come forward and talk to Concubine Jia.
Wang Xifeng kept thinking about Jia Lian's words, "If you use this 'asking child prescription' again to help our queen conceive a dragon seed..."
At this time, when he saw Yuan Chun asking, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said with a smile:
"I don't know what life I was blessed with to be able to see such a great world today. I can do it not just standing, but even kneeling."
Yuanchun met Wang Xifeng when she was not in the palace in her early years. At that time, she was still young, and she has not seen her for nearly ten years. Now, Wang Xifeng has become a pretty young woman, but she still speaks sharply and smiles before she speaks.
Yuan Chun looked at Sister Feng's waist, which had not yet revealed her pregnancy, and smiled:
"It seems that your request for a child is indeed effective."
Wang Xifeng frowned slightly:
"Oh, I don't know how many ways I have tried to find a child, but this is the most effective."
As she spoke, she hurriedly waved, and Ping'er handed over a tray. There was something on the tray, covered with a gold-rimmed red brocade handkerchief.
Sister Feng took the tray, knelt down, held it in her hand, and said to Yuan Chun:
"I went to Tianjin Wei's Tianhou Palace to beg for a son. I didn't dare to be independent, so I tied a 'baby brother' for my empress and came back, wishing her to conceive a dragon descendant soon."
Yuanchun asked with a smile:
"Is this also a 'stealing' thing?"
Wang Xifeng smiled and said:
"That's natural. It's not something that's stolen, so it won't be effective."
Yuanchun heard this very interestingly, so he came down and took it by himself, lifting up the gold-edged red brocade handkerchief. He saw on the tray a fat, white, lifelike and intelligent little baby, with his head tilted slightly, and his eyes were big and very endearing. He not only smiled.
Tao:
"If I can indeed give birth to a fair, fat and intelligent Lin'er, I will be truly blessed."
As he spoke, he actually reached out his hand to help Sister Feng stand up.
Seeing that this was the right time, Sister Feng took advantage of the opportunity to stand up and stuffed a small note into Yuan Chun's hand, while whispering:
"The real secret recipe for having a baby is on the note. Don't let others know."
At the same time, Jia Mu happened to be standing by and said:
"She is very particular about how she seeks children.
Not only can it spread branches and leaves, but it is said that it can also bless children for a safe life."
Yuanchun held the small piece of paper in his hand and looked at the concern in the eyes of his grandmother, siblings, his heart felt hot, his eyes felt sour, and he actually shed tears.
She has no favor in the palace, and the emperor does not come to sleep. No matter how many secrets she has for seeking a child, she cannot create a "Lin'er" out of nothing.
When Jia Mu saw Yuan Chun's expression, she guessed a bit, but there were eunuchs and maids around, so she could only comfort her perfunctorily:
"Wherever you are sincere, gold and stone will open. God knows you are sincere and will naturally give you more grace."
Yuanchun could only force a smile and said:
"If I were really so lucky to have Lin'er, I would ask my brother-in-law to fulfill my wish."
Wang Xifeng quickly smiled and said:
"Don't worry, my dear, God's eyes are open.
When the time comes, let alone ask me to fulfill the wishes of the empress, I will still have to wash the dolls for the empress every year."
.
Jia Lian's "Yingzhi Poems" and Wang Xifeng's "Secret Recipe for Seeking a Child" made Yuanchun think highly of Jia Lian and his wife.
After watching the play, when the eunuch came up and knelt down and said, "We have all the gifts, please check the examples." Yuanchun specially rewarded Jia Lian with an extra treasure inkstone and a purple gold "pen ingot" on top of the rewards he had prepared earlier.
Two pairs of "Ruyi" crowns, two pieces of "Wealthy Changchun" palace satin and a red gold necklace were given to Wang Xifeng as an additional reward.
From Jia Mu to the handymen, everyone received Jia Fei’s rewards, which were distributed one by one by the eunuchs.
As soon as everyone thanked them, the deacon and eunuch stepped forward to start:
"It's three o'clock in the morning, please drive back to Luan."
Not to mention that Concubine Jia and everyone left reluctantly, but only that Mother Jia, after seeing Concubine Jia off respectfully, was helped out of the garden by everyone, returned to the room, sent away the maids around her, and only asked Yuanyang to call Jia Lian, and closed the door.
, ask him seriously:
"What you said before, 'The empress rose from the palace at the beginning of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and returned home at the third quarter of the first lunar month,' has indeed come true now.
Even fortune-telling and divine prediction may not be so accurate to the slightest detail.
And the poem you wrote today is clever, clever, fluent, and has a good idea. It is not your tone at all.
Tell me the truth, how do you know these things? Are you still Lian Er?!"
