Chapter 642 Opera and Song

Yunxi, whose hands were sore from writing, asked Wang Xi to call the eunuch from the palace and ordered him to make pencils and quills.

Chinese characters have a huge advantage over Pinyin characters, that is, the words that are normally created can "read the meaning" and people can roughly understand what the word means. However, unless Pinyin characters are compound words, it is impossible to achieve this.

So the eunuch of the imperial palace immediately understood what the quill Yunxi asked him to make was, but the pencil still didn't understand. Yunxi could only explain it to him before he understood.

In addition, Yunxi also ordered him to make another kind of thing. The eunuch of the Imperial Palace was very surprised when he heard it, but finally replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

After Yunxi sent him away, he also put down the draft of the "Materialist History Textbook". Writing a book is not an easy task, especially since he can't rely on others, so he can only ask someone with better literary talent in the clan to help with proofreading.

, even if there are only tens of thousands of words, it’s not that easy to do. So there’s no rush.

Yunxi then went to the palace where he usually dealt with political affairs to criticize and answer the memorials. Yunxi's method of handling memorials now is very close to that of Zhu Gaochi in his previous life. Most of the memorials were drafted by auxiliary officials, drawn by themselves, and stamped by eunuchs.

, slightly better than Zhu Zhanji. Most memorials during Zhu Zhanji's period were drafted by the cabinet, and eunuchs drew circles and stamped them. This was also the main process of most memorials in the middle and late Ming Dynasty in history.

So he finished all today's memorials relatively quickly before dinner, gave Wang Xi a few instructions, and got up to go to Li Sha'er's courtyard in the Zhongcui Palace in the East Sixth Palace of the harem.

After he arrived at the courtyard, of course Li Shaer immediately came out to greet him. Yunxi helped her up and said with a smile, "You don't have to be so polite to me."

Li Shaer smiled and said: "Your Majesty loves me deeply, but the etiquette cannot be discarded."

"Hey, you can still speak idioms? It's not like you can say this sentence. Who taught you?" Yunhe said with a smile.

"My concubine's maid taught me this." Li Shaer blushed and said.

Yun He smiled and said nothing more, and the two of them walked into the hall together.

In the palace, except for the prince who lived in the Wenhua Palace and had an independent kitchen when he grew up, no one else had an independent kitchen and could only get their meals from the imperial dining room.

Of course, in actual implementation, each palace has things prepared for brewing medicine and can also be used to make some soup, but nothing else can be done.

Therefore, no matter where Yunxi ate, his food would be cooked in the imperial kitchen. When he went to any palace in the evening, he would just send someone to the imperial kitchen to inform him.

After a while, Yunxi and Li Shaer's meals were delivered, and the two of them talked about some interesting things while eating.

After the meal was finished, Li Shaer asked very hesitantly: "Your Majesty, will tonight be the same as the previous few days?"

"What? You don't like it?" Yunxi asked.

Li Shaer nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to talk to Your Majesty more."

"Sha'er," Yunxi put his arm around her waist and said, "This way we can talk, and I'll talk it over with you later when things are done."

"Really?" Li Sha'er said: "Every time His Majesty said that he would accompany me and talk to me as much as possible, but every time in the end..." She blushed and did not say the last few words.

"It will definitely not be like this this time." Yunxi vowed.

"Okay, I'll believe your Majesty again." Li Sha'er said coquettishly: "If your Majesty doesn't keep his word this time, I will not trust your Majesty in the future."

"How could that happen?" Yunxi said with a smile. As he spoke, he winked at Huang Lu.

After a while, an opera troupe belonging to the Jiaofang Division came in, saluted Yunxi and Li Shaer, and then began to perform opera.

When Yunxi first recruited Luo Guanzhong and his group of literati, they made opera scripts and handed them over to folk opera troupes for performances. He sent Jin Yiwei to the folk opera house Washe to see if these operas were popular; they passed

After Ming Lu joined the establishment, Yunxi ordered that all their operas should be taught to the opera troupe of the Jiaofang Division of the Ministry of Etiquette. When he was free, he would call the opera troupe into the palace and let them perform a performance.

his request.

Yunxi's work can be regarded as both entertainment and work. It can be called 'working in entertainment' or 'entertaining in work'. But because the books Yunxi asked Luo Guanzhong and others to write were all about 'bitterness and hatred', Li Sha

My son didn’t like it very much, so he was reluctant to watch it with Yunxi.

Today the opera troupe performed an excerpt of a recently produced opera called "Ding Yunnan", which describes the story of Fu Youde, Mu Ying and others leading troops to regain Yunnan.

Yunxi doesn't like ancient opera very much. As someone who has watched modern dramas and TV series, the performance form of opera is a bit boring, but some of the lyrics are better. When the play is finished, he is about to program it.

To praise, I suddenly thought of a song. After a few words of praise, I immediately said: "Who among you sings Wu Sheng?"

These people had already begun to prepare for the next play. Suddenly they heard Yunxi's instructions and were stunned. Then the young man who sang Wusheng took a step forward and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, this servant is the one who sings Wusheng."

"I suddenly thought of a song. Come and listen to it and see if ordinary people can understand it and like it." As he said this, Yunxi actually started to sing the song himself!

"..." Yunxi sang it again and asked, "What do you think?"

The people in the troupe all looked at each other: they had never heard such a song before, and the melody and lyrics were completely different from what they had heard every day.

Others could remain silent, but the person who sang Wusheng did not dare to remain silent after being named by Yunxi. He thought for a long time and finally said: "Your Majesty, I have never heard such a song. I don't know whether the people will like it, but the song

There is a sense of excitement in it, and the slave feels very motivated."

"You guys go down." Seeing that the others were all looking like "I'll kill you without opening my mouth," Yunxi stopped asking and let them go down.

Afterwards, Yunxi asked Li Shaer: "What do you think of this song?"

"Your Majesty, this song is very high-spirited, and the lyrics have a good meaning and are easy to understand. I like it very much."

"What do you think about using it to replace the current military song?" Yunxi asked again.

"Ordinary soldiers may not like this, but generals will probably like it," Li Shaer said.

"Is that so?" Yun He murmured. After a while, he said again: "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Just talk to them in a few days."

"Your Majesty, since I don't want to think about this matter anymore, let's talk to my concubine," Li Sha'er said.

"Okay," Yunhe said with a smile, "I'll just talk to you." But he picked her up and walked towards the back room.

"Your Majesty!" Li Sha'er exclaimed.

"Don't make any noise, I just want to take you to the back room to talk."

"Then why did you carry me to bed?"

"It's easier to talk in bed."

"But,..., um, ah. Your Majesty... you lied again, my concubine... I will definitely... not believe it next time... Your Majesty."
