Jin Mantang recently succeeded Acacia, a prosperous theater troupe in Yanjing City.
All the hottest theater troupes seem to be eager to get the approval of Su Guo Gong, and they always have to show such a scene to Su Guo Gong first. As long as Ji Heng decides to sing well, the troupe is sure to be good. Just like the original Acacia troupe, Ji Heng seems to have the power of life and death of the Yanjing city troupe. He can praise a troupe, and similarly, he can quickly make a troupe disappear.
Although in Jiang Li's opinion, this is really unbelievable, a grandfather of the country, a descendant of General Jinwu, seems to be a troupe in charge. But sometimes I feel that it is understandable that someone like Ji Heng has some connection with the drama.
He was born beautiful, even more gorgeous than the actors on stage. He was born to stand in front of people and radiant, but he is not suitable for performing on stage in person, because he is too sober and too cold to be able to enter the world. This is out of trouble. Such a proud man of heaven is probably only suitable for standing under the stage, watching the false joys and sorrows of others, and even disdains two drops of tears.
He just saw it as a joke, like a mocking smile on the corner of his lips.
About the entire second floor, Ji Heng took it down, and no one else was there. Jiang Li could walk out of the tea room, and when he walked to the railing on the second floor, he looked down and found the stage.
You can clearly see the people on the stage, but they are one floor higher than the spectators on the first floor. Jiang Li guessed that this was Ji Heng's condescending angle. But I have to say that watching a theater like this is more of a sense of withdrawal from watching the theater than watching it directly in the audience. In other words, if people are too close to the actor, it is easy to enter the drama. But if you are close to the actor and taller than the actor, you can clearly feel that this is a play, no matter how wonderful the play is, it is difficult for people to enter the play, and they will not be led away by the emotions in it.
Jin Mantang’s name Dan is Xiao Taohong, a young woman, because her face is covered with powder, she can’t see her clearly. But judging from the slim figure and soft singing, he should be a rare and wonderful person. No wonder the spectators in the audience clapped and applauded so much.
This play is called "Jiu'er Case".
The "Jiu'er Case" tells a very famous story, the story of a woman from the previous dynasty. The young woman's name is Jiu'er, and she married a talented person in the countryside. Later, the talented talent went to Beijing to rush for the exam, won the champion, and became a high-ranking official again, and was valued by a wealthy lady. The master of the rich lady wanted him to be the son-in-law of Chenglong, so Xiucai concealed the fact that he already had a wife and children in his hometown, and became relatives with the rich lady.
Jiu'er and the youngest son, who were far away in their hometown, didn't know that their husband had become someone else's husband, but suddenly one day, Xiucai stopped sending home letters. The house leak happened in the night rain, Jiu'er's son got sick, the family was poor and there was no money to treat the disease, in desperation, Jiu'er had to take the young son to the capital to find a husband. After all the hardships and the cold eyes of others, he finally came to the capital. But on the streets of the capital, I saw her husband and another woman behave intimately.
The Xiucai refused to recognize Jiu'er, and people even kicked Jiu'er out. Only then did Jiu'er know that he had already had a wife and a son, and had long forgotten all his wives in the family. Jiu'er's son didn't get any money in the capital to see the doctor. He was struggling to travel far and wide, and soon died of illness.
Jiu'er lost her husband and son. She was unwilling to feel the pain, so she threw the lake into a river in front of Xiucai's gate. After she died, she turned into a blue bird, crying loudly at the gate of Xiucai's mansion all day long, causing everyone to stop. The incident alarmed the emperor and ordered the officials to investigate the matter thoroughly. Knowing that Xiucai was such a fortunate person, he cut his official duties and responsibilities, and the rich lady also joined him. The talent finally ended up with nothing, and froze to death after failing to survive the severe winter.
This story is a story fabricated by a former storyteller, but because it is very exciting, I am deeply sympathetic to what happened to Jiu'er in it. Later, it was put on the stage by the troupe and became a very famous one-fold play. The women love to watch such poignant and bitter stories, they will follow Jiu'er in sadness and weep, while the men sigh. Although it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, there is also the saying that "the wives of chaos will not go down in the house". German people, it's no wonder that God couldn't stand it in the end.
When Jiang Li heard this story for the first time, she was a little girl in Tongxiang. At that time, she was young and would not shed tears. She was just blindly angry about the injustice suffered by Jiuer. He also told Xue Zhao that if he knew that the person next to his pillow was such a wolf-hearted thing, he would never stop himself in front of the scholar, but would die with the scholar with a knife. Xue Zhao also said at the time: "By then, you will definitely be reluctant."
She sneered, what she couldn't bear, but she was a white-eyed wolf who was inferior to a beast. Jiu'er in the story is still thinking about the good of the past, and I don't know if the person who made this story could not figure it out, and something went wrong.
At that time, she couldn't understand it, but she didn't expect that, many years later, the story seemed to be reprinted and re-engraved in her life. She became another Jiuer. Life has undergone earth-shaking changes, and lies, betrayals, rumors and injuries are flooded with the last time.
But one thing she hasn't changed from beginning to end, even now, asking her again, she can still say that she has nothing to bear.
When the other party chooses to betray, it is to cut away all the past friendship with a sword. Things that others don't care about are kept carefully by themselves. That is not kindness, but contemptuousness.
She never makes people look down upon herself.
The little Taohong on the stage, called Jiu'er, finally found her husband, but the husband avoided him. Xiaosheng sang: "It's not that I don't recognize you, but I'm afraid that one step will be wrong and misfortune will come."
Xiao Jiu'er: "If you say one step is wrong, misfortune is on your face. It's clear that you have won a new person and forget the old.
I want to study and study in Junju, my wife will serve your parents in front of your church,
Dabinian sent you to take the exam to bring Beijing to Beijing, and a thousand words to tell your husband when you leave
I ask you to turn back early, you must know that your parents and old children are connected
Unexpectedly, you have not heard from you for three years, and the lake will starve your parents to death by drought.
It’s hard to bury the funeral after your parents die, and you will find you with your children.
You don’t think about the kindness of husband and wife, and you don’t kiss your own children.
Slap your chest for a moment, could it be said that you are a heart beaten. "
The people on the stage sang with tears and tears, Jiang Li heard it like a knife. With all the lyrics, it's really hard not to let her think of herself. Just as Jiu'er didn't understand how she did nothing wrong, she did everything very well, why should her husband cover up and treat herself. Jiang Li also wanted to ask Shen Yurong, Glory and wealth are really so good, so good that even human nature can be discarded, don't you want anything
What's more, there are her children.
Her child was buried in this dirty conspiracy before he was born into the world. When Shen Yurong sacrificed him, did he hesitate to know that this child was bleeding from him
Jiang Li didn't dare to think further.
On the other side, Lu Ji, who had been watching the show, suddenly said, "Hey, Miss Jiang Er looked very carefully."
The three of them all looked at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li was facing them sideways, her eyes drooping low, but she was wrong and right to stare at the people in the audience, obviously looking very carefully. If you look closely, you can see that she is clutching the edge of the carved fence on the second-floor platform, the joints in her hand are all white, and she is grasping hard.
She was addicted to the play.
"What's wrong with this?" Kong Liu disapproved, "Miss Jiang Er is jealous of evil, and has a clear distinction between good and evil. This play is so suffocated, everyone who listens to it is angry. Miss Jiang Er felt the play, and listened to it a little. It's normal."
"It's normal to be fascinated by this drama," Lu Ji said with a smile, "But it's Miss Jiang Er."
What kind of person Ms. Jiang Er seems to be smiling at all times, even when she is not smiling, she is also as gentle as a stream, calm and gentle, and she can hardly see when she is furious or in a hurry. This kind of temperament is tepid to some people, but in Miss Jiang Er, anyone with a little eye can probably see that Miss Jiang Er doesn't care.
In other words, most things are unimportant in her eyes. There is no need to take care of things that are not important. This is a mentality that can only be obtained after experiencing a huge transition in life, and it only appears in old people who have experienced worldly things.
Even if Miss Jiang Er once "killed her mother and killed her brother" and was sent to the nunnery to stay alone for eight years, it would not have come to the present, a kind of Wen Chun who has experienced strong winds and waves.
All in all, Jiang Li doesn't care about trivial matters. Even people who don't care about the reputation that may ruin their lives will feel the same for a small drama
Others may, but Ms. Jiang Er will definitely not. If she did something different because of this play, it can only mean that this play touched her. In her past life, there were some overlaps with this play.
This is empathy.
Ji Heng's fingertips brushed the handle of the white fan, and suddenly stood up, looking at Jiang Li with some interesting eyes, and approached Jiang Li unhurriedly.
"He..." Kong Liu was about to speak, but Lu Ji pulled him off. Lu Ji made a "hush" gesture to him and said, "Watch the show."
Xiao Jiu'er is still singing: "My husband invites a consort in Kyoto, I live in the palace and hold a pipa.
I hate him once he became rich and ungrateful, he...he abandoned his hair
I am his wife’s room.
What he said and what he didn’t, he returned to his hometown
Unexpectedly, drought was in Huguang, and poor people were hungry and heartbroken
The second parents-in-law starved to death on the thatched cottage, and they had no money to bury the second parents
Cut two strands of blue silk on the head, exchange two seats on the street
Everyone talks about the neighbors and the west, the husband won the champion
I brought my son and daughter to visit, begging along the door to Bianliang
Muchi Palace rushed through the door, he kicked me
Falling down by the palace gate.... "
The wife of the knot... Jiang Li thought in a daze. This is a lingering name, just like Shen Yurong's gentleness to her at the beginning. She also experienced a lot of nights during this Mid-Autumn Festival, and every time she was happy and satisfied. Who knew that there would be such a day, thinking of all the past, as if a sword entered the abdomen, the sword saw the bone, and made people want to live in pain
She almost couldn't tell whether this was just a drama of the "Jiuer Case" or the real herself. She seemed to have become Jiu'er, and she seemed to be more miserable than Jiu'er.
At this moment, a silk handkerchief was suddenly handed over to him.
It's pure white, without any embroidery, the silk is smooth, and it emits a subtle flowing brilliance under the light, which is very soft at first glance.
"Wipe it." Ji Heng's voice still sounded calm and calm. He said: "The appearance of the second lady with rain in the pear flower is really not very good."
Jiang Li didn't care about his unpleasant words, and hurriedly reached out to touch her cheek, but felt that her cheek was wet, she didn't know when she cried.
She actually cried.
Subconsciously, Jiang Li wanted to pick up Ji Heng's handkerchief, but the next moment he woke up, and smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Guo, but I have it myself." She took out a light green one from her arms. The veil, although not more expensive than Ji Heng's gold, was also very elegant and wiped away his tears.
The action was calm as if to dust off.
But she didn't want her to smile subconsciously, with the teardrops in the corners of her eyes, unspeakable strange. Ji Heng also paused, without comment, withdrew his handkerchief, and said to Jiang Li, "I didn't expect that a woman like Jiang Er's hard-hearted woman would cry." He said slowly, "I have to doubt that Miss Jiang Er is a drama fan. Up."
"If the play is exciting, just watch it. If it's not exciting, don't watch it." Jiang Li also laughed, "It is said that Jin Mantang is the red team of Yanjing City. ."
"It's not Xiao Taohong's singing that touches people, but the play itself." Ji Heng said, "Miss Jiang Er just entered the play."
"Me?" Jiang Li gave him a surprised look and smiled: "I'm not the one in the play, how to enter the play, Lord Guo laughed."
"The second young lady is very good at acting, but not very good at lying." Ji Heng sighed with a smile: "Your lies are too clumsy."
Jiang Li frowned slightly and was about to speak, but Ji Heng suddenly raised her chin and forced her to look up.
This posture was already extremely frivolous, Kong Liu next to him almost screamed, and Lu Ji covered his mouth.
With surprise in Jiang Li's heart, she didn't know whether she was ashamed or surprised for a while, so she stared directly at Ji Heng.
I watched Ji Heng up close several times, but no matter how many times I saw it, every time I saw it, it would still be as amazing as it was when I first saw it. His pale red robe is loose, but the peonies embroidered on the neckline are delicate and neat. In the miserable singing voice, he is more and more beautiful. Like a red lotus blooming in the pale winter day, it is dazzlingly hot. It is also like seeing a bright moon in the reflection of the abyss, beautiful and frightening.
His eyes are light, transparent amber, but the contours of his eyes are inherently deep, so he draws the eyebrows as if they are naturally drawn. The shape of his nose is not good-looking, and his lips are thin and red. Even the ridiculous ridicule makes people want to pounce on him desperately for a kiss.
With a smile at the corner of his mouth, he slowly leaned forward a little bit, the more intimate, the colder, his eyes were so narrow that he could not help holding his breath, but his voice was muffled and muffled. , He said: "Eyes are love seedlings, your eyes have betrayed your heart."
Jiang Li said, "I don't have one."
"You have someone in your heart," he said.
Jiang Li: "I don't have one."
"This person is in your heart, you don't love, but you hate it." He smiled.
Jiang Li was startled, and couldn't say the phrase "I don't have any".
The young man is like a monster who knows people's minds, and everything in the world is invisible in his eyes. Jiang Li couldn't help wondering whether this person could see through all lies and understand all betrayals. Because his charming eyes can sink everyone, but he can't sink himself.
He is too awake and destined to not be too happy.
At this moment, Jiang Li was inexplicably relaxed. In the past few encounters with Su Guo Gong Ji Heng, not once, she has the upper hand, although it is not the lower one, but Jiang Li knows in her heart that the pressure of people does make her very uncomfortable. . But at this moment, she understood that a person like Su Guo Gong Ji Heng could indeed see everything clearly. But people who live too well and know too well usually have a hard time.
Rarely confused.
As if at last there was one thing, Ji Heng was destined to have no way to surpass himself. Jiang Li suddenly bent her eyebrows, as if her tight body had relaxed at that moment. She looked at Ji Heng and smiled and said, "Whatever the Lord Guo said, that's it."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Li would suddenly compromise, and he said so easily, a hint of surprise flashed in Ji Heng's eyes.
Jiang Li broke away from Ji Heng's hand slightly, Ji Heng released the fingers that provoked his chin, and re-applied the folding fan. He became the polite and polite appearance again, and put on his sheepskin.
"Duke Guo loves watching theaters so much, isn't he afraid that one day he will be in the theater and be seen as a joke?"
Ji Heng's eyes darkened slightly, as if she didn't expect that Jiang Li not only didn't take a step back, but also said something provocative like this.
"Ms. Jiang Er thinks that I am a person who can enter the play?" He shook his fan with carelessness and said: "I am not as kind as Miss Er."
This means that he is not as kind as Jiang Li, and he will not cry for the unimportant people and the joys and sorrows of others.
"A play is a play, it can't be done." He spit out cruel sentences almost lingeringly.
"The person in the play doesn't know that they are in the play." Jiang Li whispered: "Just as I encountered a story that touched me here, maybe one day, you will also meet it."
She said mild words, but looked at Ji Heng's eyes with a trace of stubbornness. This makes her look like a "little girl" at last, but the way she speaks is still so euphemistic and meaningful.
"Then ruin the play," Ji Heng smiled very kindly, "I'm not an actor."
These simple and rude words are really Ji Heng's style! Jiang Li is a little dull. Ji Heng is a dictator in his bones. He doesn't have to think about other people's ideas, and he doesn't care about other people's opinions. He has a steelyard in his heart for a long time, and he only needs to add weight to it.
No one can be his weight, so no one is destined to be his weakness, he is destined not to be threatened by anyone, he has no weaknesses, so everyone is afraid of him.
Jiang Li said coldly: "Then I wish Grandpa Guo will always be a theaterman today!" She didn't understand what was wrong with her, so she wanted to run here to fight Ji Heng. . For people like Ji Heng, it's best not to socialize too much, and hide as far away as possible.
But this person can easily arouse the spirit in her bones, and can't help but talk to him too much. He is really a master at playing with people's hearts!
But in this world, it is not uncommon for eagles to peck their eyes when playing eagles.
Jiang Li said: "The thick one will dry up, and the weak one will grow deeper." She snorted in her heart, turned and walked towards Kong Liu's side.
Ji Heng stood there in a daze. After thinking about it clearly, he almost couldn't help laughing.
Jiang Li was warning him that the thinner the thing, the deeper it might be in the end. The more he did it, the more he would inevitably suffer retribution in the future.
Kong Liuzheng and Lu Ji muttered how to see Ji Heng and Jiang Li as if they were about to quarrel, and they saw Jiang Li coming over unpreparedly. He squeezed out a fairly kind smile, and said to Jiang Li: "Why Miss Jiang Er came here? Don't keep looking?"
"Nothing to watch." Jiang Li smiled mildly and unassumingly, and she couldn't tell that she had just confronted Ji Heng just now. She said: "This story has been seen many times, and it is too tragic. Today Mid-Autumn Festival, I don't want to be sad. ."
Kong Liu suddenly realized that he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes."
Standing on the carved railing with her chest folded, Ji Heng was interesting to see that Jiang Li was able to deal with Kong Liu's greetings with ease. She was a little girl who could change her face, and her ability to change her face was quite good.
He glanced at the little pink who was still singing "babble" on the stage again, thinking in his heart, but he didn't know which one she loved and hated.
It should not be Zhou Yanbang.
…
Dealing with a straight character like Kong Liu is much easier than with Ji Heng. Even the smiling goatee next to him who always wanted to talk about Jiang Li's words was easier to deal with than Ji Heng.
When dealing with Ji Heng, he is always not stingy to let people see another side that is completely different from his affectionate beauty, such as cruelty, such as cold feeling.
Kong Liu even asked Jiang Li if he had any idea of becoming an archer or cavalry in his light truck army. Her archery and riding skills are very good, not much better than men. Moreover, she has never been trained before, and she can be so. After training in the army, she will be even better. Although there is no woman in their cavalry, she can set a precedent for this.
Jiang Li has a headache.
Kong Liu's heart is really too big, he seems to have forgotten that Jiang Li is the daughter of Jiang Yuanbai, and now the first assistant daughter, there is no place for Miss Qian Jin to be a cavalry soldier. Even if Jiang Li himself was willing, Jiang Yuanbai would not agree, and he would probably go up to Tianting with a paper, telling Kong Liu that she would abduct Miss Shoufu's family.
Jiang Li politely declined.
Kong Liu is very sorry.
Lu Ji had been talking to Jiang Li with a smile, and occasionally asked about Jiang's mansion. Although he asked only trivial matters, Jiang Li was still sensitive to the fact that Lu Ji wanted to play with him. Jiang Li didn’t know Lu Ji, and didn’t know what his idea was. Even if Lu Ji was Ji Heng’s person, Jiang Li would not relax his vigilance because of this. You must know that Ji Heng is not a good person, just in case he wants to. How about framing Jiang's family behind? Now she is leaning against the big tree of the Jiang family. If the Jiang family falls, she, as a young lady of the Jiang family, will certainly have few paths to walk.
Jiang Li smiled and answered Lu Ji, but avoided important questions one by one. Several times back and forth, Lu Ji also realized that Jiang Li had noticed it, so he stopped asking questions, just smiled and continued to argue with Kong Liu.
Ji Heng didn't do anything, just leaned on the carved railing to watch the "Jiu'er Case". He watched it carelessly, which made people wonder if he was watching.
It is confusing whether this is just one of his plays.
I don’t know how long I’ve been sitting there. Jiang Li intuitively said that the time for a stick of incense has passed, and then stood up and said: "Several adults, I have to go back. If they can find me, the second uncle will be anxious. It’s not too early now... "
"Then send you back!" Kong Liu waved his hand.
"Wait." Lu Ji stopped him, and said, "We are the father of the country after all, so we can send Miss Er back. Although it can be explained clearly, it will inevitably cause misunderstanding. We are nothing, Miss Jiang Er is a girl's home. In order not to cause trouble to Miss Jiang Er, I still send Miss Jiang Er to Brother Ling. For Brother Ling, always explain better."
Jiang Li is clear, meaning that it is easier to fool Jiang Jingrui than to fool Lu's gangsters.
Ji Heng said: "Wenji."
Wen Ji was surrounded by Bai Xue and Tong Er looking strangely. After all, there was no guard with such a mark in Jiang Mansion, and Tong Er had been comparing Wen Ji and Jiang Jingrui which was better. From the beginning of the eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth, I didn't make a gesture at the end. On the contrary, Wen Ji's face flushed with embarrassment, and he was at a loss.
Hearing Ji Heng's order this time, Wen Ji was finally able to get rid of the two girls, and immediately said: "Yes."
"Send Miss Jiang Er back." Ji Heng said.
Wen Ji nodded, and Jiang Li saluted Ji Heng: "Thank you for the hospitality."
"You're welcome." Ji Heng chuckled, "There will be a period later."
Jiang Li: "..."
I really hope that "a period" will be a hundred years later, no, it will be better after a thousand years.
After finally coming out of Wangxian Tower, Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief. Looking back, Wangxian Tower was standing in the crowded street in the center of Yanjing City. The buildings were lit up, like an unreal dream.
She suddenly discovered that Ji Heng had been confused by Ji Heng, who had originally thought to come out to see things and think about people.
Although it was really thoughtful at first, the confrontation with Ji Heng caused those unwillingness and pain to invade for a while, and now, everything is relaxed.
It can be considered crooked.
She said: "Let's go."
When I found Jiang Jingrui, Wen Ji disappeared in the crowd. As soon as Jiang Jingrui saw her, he immediately said, "Where did you go? I have been looking for you and can't find it. I almost told my mother to make her want It's a solution!"
"I was squeezed into a remote place by the crowd, and I finally came back." Jiang Limian lied unchanged, "It's all right now."
"Really?" Jiang Jingrui looked at her suspiciously: "Why have you been there for so long? Your makeup is a bit flowery..."
"It's too hot, sweat is spoiled." Jiang Li said: "Now go find your second aunt. At this time, it's time to go back."
Jiang Jingrui was a little frustrated. He hadn't got the white rabbit lantern, so he had to give up.
Jiang Li sighed inwardly, no wonder Lu Ji had to say that, Jiang Jingrui, really fooled.
