Geng Character Scroll, Section 54, 'Song of Qin and Song'
Su Miao? Feng Ziying was stunned for a moment, Jiangdong Qin Shen? Why is he so familiar? After thinking about it carefully, he was convinced that he did not have this person in his memory, and there seemed to be no one named Su among the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai in the late Ming Dynasty, right?
Calculating the timeline, most of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai are not born yet. Of course, history has changed. If there were no Eight Beauties of Qinhuai in the late Ming Dynasty in previous history, there might also be the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai in this era.
.
The god of piano, Su Miao, seems to be a famous prostitute from the south of the Yangtze River who has just arrived in the capital. She suddenly became famous in the capital city, and was flocked to by both Wei Ruolan and Han Qi. She even used it to specially invite and entertain them, which shows that this woman is very talented.
Extraordinary.
"Ruolan, Ziqi, that's a bit exaggerated. If you two come forward, which girl in the pavilions and pavilions in the capital city can't be invited? My reputation, you said, might be of some use in Yongping Mansion.
In this city of the capital, I will lose sight of everyone." Feng Ziying laughed, and then lowered her voice and said: "It is said that the third-rank officials in the capital are everywhere, and the fourth-rank officials are as numerous as dogs. I, a fifth-rank official, are said to have met Pan Jinlian.
If the bamboo pole that fell down the window during Ximen Qingshi had fallen down in a random alley in Nanxunfang or Xiaoyongfang, it would definitely have hit a fifth-rank official, and most likely it would have been a genuine fifth-rank official..."
"Water Margin", as a major classic in legendary story-telling novels, has been widely sung by storytellers in teahouses in the pre-Ming Dynasty. The chance encounter between Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian happened when the bamboo pole leaning against Pan Jinlian's window fell.
After being hit by Ximen Qing, and then the adulterer and his wife met the fire, they hit it off immediately. These stories are all familiar to people.
Feng Ziying exchanged the place where the bamboo pole fell off for the Xunfang and Xiaoyongfang in the south of the capital city where wealthy people gathered. The ridicule of being a fifth-rank official was certainly self-deprecating, but it also showed that the fifth-rank official in this capital city was really nothing.
Feng Ziying's self-mockery made Han Qi and Wei Ruolan laugh, but Han Qi's face was stern, "Ziying, you are a genuine fifth-grade person, but you yourself have said that you are so miserable, so my father is a seventh-grade person."
"Pin, then you don't even dare to go out?"
"Haha, Zi Qi, your father is an official in the capital. He is different from me, a local bumpkin from other places. Maybe as soon as I step out, the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division can chain me into the prison and lock me up.
"Feng Ziying also laughed.
"Who dares to put you, Feng Xiuzan, who is famous all over Kyoto, in a prison? That's really like hanging someone who has a long life." Han Qi shook his head.
He knew that Feng Ziying was being self-effacing. Although officials from other places had no status in the capital city, it still depended on people. When officials of the third grade came to the capital, they always had more airs than anyone else. Feng Ziying, who was very famous in the capital, was in the five cities.
Who do you not recognize from the Soldiers and Horses Division or from the patrol camp?
"Ziying, you don't know that Su Miao has already become famous in less than a month since she came to Beijing." Wei Ruolan obviously has a very good impression of Su Miao, or maybe several people are enthusiastic about it, so it is estimated that this invitation
Su Miao was also the one who made this happen. Maybe he wanted to kiss Fangze, but he used his own name to invite her.
"It seems that I am really ignorant in the wilderness of Yongping Mansion. Jiangdong Qin Shen, where is this girl Su Miao from? Hangzhou? Suzhou? Huzhou?" Feng Ziying was also a little curious. It is not easy to be called the Qin God. Jia
Yuanchun was the best at playing the qin in the Rongguo Mansion. His skill was extraordinary, and some people in the mansion said that Yuanchun was a qin fairy, but Feng Ziying had no chance to hear about it.
Jiangdong is an old regional term, similar to Jiangzuo, but nowadays the word Jiangdong is basically not used, but the broader Jiangnan is used to refer to it.
"Miss Su is from Hangzhou, and her background is very mysterious. She herself never wants to mention it..." Wei Ruolan continued, "Miss Su made her debut two years ago at Qingshan Tower in Hangzhou and became famous in one fell swoop. Zhejiang Chengdu
It was announced that both Councilor Zuo and the prefect of Hangzhou were crazy about it. Later, Miss Su traveled to Jinling. Jia Hua, the prefect of Jinling, sat in Tancha Pavilion for three days in a row just to appreciate Miss Su's piano skills. She was even imprisoned by the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Shi impeached him for his neglect of political affairs and his obsession with karaoke..."
“Oh? So powerful?” Feng Ziying didn’t expect that even Jia Yucun would be fascinated by Su Miao, which was rare.
"Isn't that what happened? As soon as Miss Su arrived in the capital, she performed a recital at Mingyue Tower. Prince Zhongshun led a large group of people to stand up for her. The whole city was popular among the gentry, officials, and wealthy businessmen..." Wei
Ruolan looked proud.
"If it's so in demand, why can Brother Ruolan be invited?" Feng Ziying laughed, "I don't think that I can get it just because of my name. With so many people chasing after me, I'm afraid that Su Miao's reservations have already been scheduled.
It will be ten days and a half month later, how can Brother Ruolan be able to invite her as soon as she goes there? Or maybe Brother Ruolan is known as the eldest princess?"
Wei Ruolan shook her head like a rattle, "If I use my mother's name, I won't have my legs broken when I go back. That's because of several reasons..." Wei Ruolan seemed to be offering treasures, and she had enough.
The tone, "Firstly, it has been two months since Miss Su came to Beijing, and the popularity has subsided a little; secondly, with the Mongolian army outside, the atmosphere in Beijing is a little tight, and the officials in Beijing are afraid of being impeached by the imperial censor, so they have restrained themselves;
Third, Sun Jin, another singing immortal who is as famous as Miss Su in both piano and singing, has come to Beijing."
The God of Music and Song? Su Miao and Sun Jin? Feng Ziying was a little confused for a moment. He seemed to have recalled something, but he felt a little unbelievable, but in the end he could only accept it.
History has always veered off course, has it ever happened in the Great Zhou Dynasty? The history we see is just the development of countless branches after occasional collisions and agitation in the torrent of history. Any pebble thrown into the tide may not be the same.
It can stir up some changes, and then change the details of the flowing water.
It is in this torrent that billions of people have evolved performances that are generally similar but the details have changed for each period.
“Sun Jin, the Immortal of Songs?” Feng Ziying subconsciously rubbed her cheeks and said in an uncertain tone: “The two masters of piano and singing, the God of Music and the Immortal of Songs? Isn’t this a bit of an exaggeration?”
"Haha, Ziying, people from the south of the Yangtze River sneer at us people in the capital for being rustics who have never seen the world. Zi Qi and I were a little dissatisfied before. It's not like we don't have talents in the capital city. If we brag so much, we are just frogs in the well.
, but after Miss Su Miaosu came, she sang a song that was overwhelming. I had to admit that Miss Su’s piano skills were amazing. Then the day before yesterday, I went to Mingyue Tower to hear Miss Sun’s singing voice. The lingering sound lingered for three days.
It could be her, I heard that Second Brother Liu also plans to invite Miss Sun to show off her singing voice in Daguan Tower."
Wei Ruolan's attitude towards Feng Ziying seemed to be expected. Everyone had dismissed her before, thinking it was just to raise her own status. But after seeing her, she understood the difference between Liba people under the snow.
"Okay, okay, okay, Ruolan, since you play so amazingly, I want to listen to it later to see how good this girl Su is. As for the singing voice of that singer, I'm afraid I don't have it."
It's a chance, I guess I will return to Yongping Mansion in the next two days." Feng Ziying said with a smile.
“Oh? Ziying, are you going back to Yongping Mansion? Have the matters here been dealt with?” Han Qi, who had been silent for a long time, finally answered. It was obvious that he was more interested in Feng Ziying’s return to Beijing.
"It's time to go back a long time ago, but the imperial court wants me to stay temporarily." Feng Ziying said calmly, "The Ministry of War has news today. Huang Degong's troops have arrived at Caojiazhai to join Li Ruzhang's troops. The situation at Gubeikou will be different.
To ease the situation, I believe the Chahar people won’t be able to stay for long.”
“Ziying, is this why you stay in Beijing?” Han Qi played with the tea cup in his hand, his eyes twinkling, “I heard it seems to be more than that.”
"Ziqi, it would be nice to know some things,..." Feng Ziying said neither salty nor coldly. Han Qi's father is the deputy commander of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, the Warrior Battalion, and the Fourth Guards Battalion.
The patrol battalion of the City Soldiers and Horses Division can be regarded as the armed security force in the capital second only to the three major battalions of the Beijing Camp, and Jinxiang Marquis has a lot of connections with the Han family, so naturally he can detect some clues.
Hearing Feng Ziying's words, Han Qi's expression changed and he lowered his voice: "Ziying, really...?"
“Ziqi, it doesn’t matter whether it’s true or false. It’s all over. Who can say whether it’s true or false if it hasn’t happened?” Feng Ziying said calmly.
When Han Qi heard Feng Ziying say that it was over and nothing happened, the tense heartstrings in his heart suddenly relaxed. He couldn't help but lean back in the chair. His originally depressed mood suddenly improved, "Okay, bring it to Ziying."
Good news, I’ll treat you tonight.”
"Oh, really?" Wei Ruolan also heard the conversation between Feng Ziying and Han Qi, but he was obviously much slower. He was still wondering what kind of riddle the two were playing. Suddenly, he heard Han Qi say that he had
Treating guests, he naturally became happy, "Okay, Zi Qi, this is what you said. You thought it was too expensive before. What happened now?"
Han Qi smiled and said nothing.
Feng Ziying can also feel the changes in the two former partners. Han Qi has obviously matured faster. Although his uncle Han Shangyu managed to escape in the battle of Santun Camp, as the power of the Beijing camp has been greatly reduced, Han Shangyu will probably be eliminated in the future.
To be held accountable, and this will inevitably affect his father, although the Marquis of Jinxiang is also a character among the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and Twelve Marquises, he is not particularly outstanding. This is both a good thing and a bad thing, depending on how it is operated.
Feng Ziying came to attend the banquet this time. On the one hand, as mentioned before, it also boosted the morale of the people in the capital. Seeing that Xiao Feng Xiuzuan could sing and dance in the mirror garden and play happily, everyone felt more at ease.
If the situation is tense, how can Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan dare to do this?
On the other hand, Han Qiqiu came to the door. He also wanted to be a bit thin-faced with his former partner. Han Shangyu's situation was not too bad. At least he was better than the large group of warriors who were directly captured, right?
