Lin Jue was very busy during this period. At the end of the first year, the Grand Theater Branch in Dongcheng was about to open, and the two cast troupes were about to start trial operations. In order to be an instant success, Lin Jue had to go into battle himself and perform the opening performance of Dongcheng Branch.
Personal guidance. Fortunately, the newly joined girl Zhao Mengyue from Jiangning City is a smart person and can understand everything at once, which saves a lot of effort.
In addition, the new theater takes a high-end route, so a lot of thought needs to be put into the lighting and scenery. No one can help Lin Jue with these things. Lin Jue can only think about innovation on his own. That's fine, there are performances in both theaters, and the script needs
Although he had a lot of stories in his mind, Lin Jue was very busy when he had to write them out and match them with lines, music, background, lighting, and shadows.
Lin Jue had to burn the midnight oil and stay up late to do things. Although he realized that sooner or later he would not be able to cope with this. After all, his grand plan was to open the Grand Theater all over the country, so he could not afford these things by himself. He
It was necessary to recruit people to write scripts for the Grand Theater. However, at this moment, he had to rack his brains to do the work himself.
After several days of hard work, the new play "The Peach Blossom Fan" was finally completed, and Lin Jue breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that both theaters had new plays to perform in the next two months, and he could relax for a while.
In February, the premiere of the new play "Saving Feng Chen" was followed by the opening ceremony of the Dongcheng Grand Theater on the second day of February and the premiere of the new play "The Peach Blossom Fan". Lin Jue was busy running in both directions. Fortunately, the two plays were performed
They were all very successful and received enthusiastic responses. The business of the Grand Theater in Dongcheng was also very good. Lin Jue finally breathed a sigh of relief and did not work in vain. His judgment on the market was still accurate. There are too few entertainment activities these days, such as watching dramas.
The pastime has become a trend in the city of Hangzhou, and there is absolutely no need to worry about business.
And as I heard before, several big brothels also quickly got involved to get a share of the pie. After the opening of the Dongcheng Grand Theater, several theaters suddenly popped up in the north and south cities, and the business was actually good. In this regard, Xie Danhong and Xie Yingying
He was very nervous, but Lin Jue didn't take it seriously. The market demand was too big, so there was no need to worry about business. Besides, everyone performed in their own way and used their own methods. What can really attract people to watch is the quality of the performance and the excitement of the play. On this point
Lin Jue thought that it would be difficult for others to surpass him.
Not to mention the new means of lighting and scenery that I claim to be innovative, even in terms of scripts, others can never match them. The scripts I choose are all excellent scripts that have been tested by history. How can anyone just do it?
They can surpass. Even if they follow suit, they are still following their own path. Our Jiangnan Grand Theater is willing to be the leader of this industry and lead their progress. In that case, Jiangnan Grand Theater will always be ahead of them.
Since the night of the Shangyuan Dynasty, the little princess disappeared for a period of time and did not appear again. Lin Jue thought he would see her arrival at the premiere of the two plays, but he stayed in the box and waited until the end of the two premieres.
Seeing her coming, this inevitably made Lin Jue even more worried and concerned. Although he felt that it was not appropriate, Lin Jue still asked someone to find out about the little princess. The news he got was that the little princess was staying in the palace well, and
Nothing bad happened, and Lin Jue felt relieved.
Although he wanted to see her and greet her, he had no reason to go to the palace to meet the princess. In addition, the two of them had agreed to keep a low profile and have as little contact as possible before and after the prince and his son returned to avoid unnecessary trouble, so Lin Jue
I can only endure it secretly.
One day in mid-February, the little princess finally sent someone to invite Lin Jue to visit the palace. Lin Jue received the invitation from the little princess and immediately went to the palace to see him. However, this meeting almost turned out to be an unexpected incident.
.
On the afternoon of February 13th, when Lin Jue walked into the garden of the palace's back house, the little princess was sitting on the swing alone in the sun. Looking at the little princess in the colorful dress from a distance, Lin Jue felt a sense of guilt in his heart.
The little princess has obviously lost weight, and her plump cheeks with some baby fat have lost a lot of weight. Although she is still radiant, she is obviously no longer the carefree girl before, and her eyes are much deeper.
Seeing Lin Jue appearing in front of her, the little princess almost rushed over and hugged her lover. However, there were so many servants and eyes and ears around, so the little princess could only bow politely as before. Lin Jue was also old.
Return the favor honestly.
The little princess wanted to push away everyone and invite Lin Jue into the room to talk, but Lin Jue stopped him softly. At this time, he must not do anything extraordinary. If he wanted to hide it from the prince and the little prince, he must never be alone with the little princess again. What's more, this time
You are in the palace, and you can't do whatever you want. Even if that incident had happened, even if that incident hadn't happened, it would have been impossible for an outsider to meet the princess and enter the room alone with the princess, otherwise he would have deserved to be beaten to death.
Of course the little princess understood this truth, sighed helplessly, and ordered someone to serve tea. Afterwards, the two sat at the table in the sun, seemingly like good friends, drinking tea and chatting leisurely, but the flames between their eyebrows were dancing.
As he stood, the air was filled with a strong scent of hormones. When they met again, Lin Jue originally felt that there would be some embarrassment and strangeness, but at this moment, he realized that there was none of that. What was there was the deep love and affection between each other.
, the eyes of unabashed love for each other.
"Mr. Lin has been very busy recently, and his life is very exciting." The little princess said with a smile. Then she reached out and dipped her hand in tea and wrote on the table: "You are so cruel, you really won't come if you say you can't come? You haven't come for so long.
If you don’t come to see me, have you forgotten me?”
Under the gaze of the maids and servants not far away, they could only speak in this way.
"Thanks to the princess's concern, I have indeed been a little busy recently, but it's all in vain."
Lin Jue replied with a haha, dipped in tea and wrote: "I have not forgotten you, I think of you every day. But I really can't come casually, you understand the reason."
"It's good to be busy. It's boring to have nothing to do all day long. I would rather be busy every day like you."
(Are you telling the truth?)
"I would rather have the same leisure time as the princess. The princess is destined to be rich and noble, while we commoners are destined to work hard."
(This heart can learn from the sun and the moon. I have dreamed of you several times in my dreams.)
The little princess's eyes were a little moist, and she quickly wiped the corners of her eyes and said: "Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. There are benefits to being busy, and there are benefits to being free."
(I also dream about you every day. I can’t eat or sleep even if I scream. What can I do?)
"Why doesn't the princess go out to relax when she has nothing to do? Two new plays are premiering at the Jiangnan Grand Theater. Why doesn't the princess go and take a look?"
(Are you in good health? I see you have lost some weight. Don’t overthink and take care of yourself. Why didn’t you go to the premiere of the two new plays? I’ll wait for you to finish.)
"Well, I've been a little sleepy recently and don't have much thought. I'll have a look later."
(I want to go too, but after that day, I can't run around anymore. The housekeeper and the guards don't allow me to go out, and my aunts say that I run around every day. Besides, dad and the others are coming back soon.
I'm scared.)
"When does the princess want to go? I'll say hello to you next time. I'll leave you a private room."
(Don’t worry, the response we agreed upon is that I have everything.)
"Then there's no need to worry about it. When my father and brother come back, I'll make a decision after I report them."
(It’s not me I’m worried about, it’s you. My father and brother won’t do anything to me. My brother is the shrewdest. If there is any doubt, he will cause trouble for you.)
"Okay, the princess will make her own decision. Anyway, when the princess comes, all the staff of Jiangnan Grand Theater will serve her respectfully, and she will be honored."
(Then there’s no need to worry, your brother can’t do anything to me.)
"Mr. Lin, you're welcome. Maybe dad and brother are also interested and want to go and see it."
(Your words let my brother know that he will try his best to kill you. By the way, I didn’t want to ask you to come. After all, you said it would be better for us to meet less during this period. But I have to ask you to come.
, because the one on me didn’t come this month.)
"What!" Lin Jue suddenly shouted in horror.
The frightened birds in the trees flew up, frightening the servants and maids standing not far away. These people listened to what the princess and Mr. Lin said.
These useless polite words, and I don’t know what’s wrong with them, I dipped my fingers in tea and scribbled on the table, concentrating on guessing something. Suddenly, I was so frightened by this voice that my heart almost jumped out of my chest.
"Oh, Mr. Lin, what's wrong with you? Even if my father and brother go, you don't have to be so surprised." The little princess said angrily with a slightly red face.
Lin Jue breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I have lost my temper. If the prince and the young prince go, it will be the supreme honor of our Grand Theater."
(Are you telling the truth? Your period has not come? What does that mean?)
Lin Jue actually understood in his heart what the absence of menstruation meant. That night, there were several spring nights, and he was unscrupulous, and it was impossible to take any measures. Could it be that after that night, jade was planted in the blue field? If that was true, it would be a big trouble.
.The matter can be prevaricated and fabricated to deal with it. After all, the aftermath is handled very well, but the stomach cannot be prevaricated. In just a few months, nothing can cover up the big belly. How can Lin Jue not be frightened?
The little princess had no intention of lying anymore. She leaned closer to Lin Jue and whispered in a low voice: "My menstrual period is at the beginning of the month. It has been more than forty days and I haven't come. I am very worried. I have been drowsy again recently. I secretly
I asked someone and they said it was possible that she was...pregnant...with a child."
Lin Jue was speechless with his mouth open. Lin Jue was completely unaware of this accident. He had a romantic affair several times during the night. At the time, he was confused and infatuated. He did not expect that it would bring so many sequelae.
"You don't have to worry. If it really happens, I will... secretly take medicine and kill you. Anyway, I will never involve you. But on the one hand, I am also a little reluctant to let go. If it is really our child, I will
How can you be willing to do this? What do you think we should do?" the little princess whispered.
Lin Jue frowned and said: "Don't think about this too much. Aren't you still undecided? It's not impossible to postpone menstruation. If you really have a baby, it will still take a few months for the belly to grow. Then we can think of a solution.
It’s not too late. Anyway, don’t be anxious and don’t ask random questions, otherwise it will make things worse.”
Lin Jue's first reaction was naturally that if she was really pregnant, she would have no choice but to have an abortion. But there are no good methods for abortion these days, and all they use are some powerful medicines such as realgar and thenardite.
He had heard rumors more than once that someone had died because of this. Of course, Lin Jue couldn't let the little princess take this risk. But for a while, he couldn't think of any way to do it, so he was quite restless.
