Zhu Houzhao followed Xu Xun and Zhang Yong in a very orderly manner, without even looking around. He saw that everyone in the hall came up like a swarm to greet each other, and there was a basket full of all kinds of greetings, and he didn't even bring them with him.
Repeatedly, he couldn't help but secretly feel impatient. Just when he felt bored, he suddenly found someone in front of him making way for a way. He immediately looked up quickly and found a young man in his thirties.
He stood out from the crowd and stood in front of them.
"We meet each other everywhere in life, but I never expected to meet Marquis Pingbei here."
When Xu Xun saw Li Mengyang, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He had not paid attention to the leader of the seven sons who was extremely angry for a while. Although Wang Shouren was sent to Guizhou because of his bad temper, at least Wang Shouren was eliminated.
Today's psychology system has not yet been fully formed, and its military capabilities are also remarkable. However, Li Mengyang is a good talker, and it is difficult to tell him to do practical things. Therefore, he does not know that he is in Jiangxi.
After being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said: "It turns out to be Li Kongtong. If Duishan and the others know that you are now transferring to Jiangxi, this cultural treasure land, they will definitely be very happy."
"That is, he can go to Pingbei Hou for my safety. He will naturally be very happy when he hears that his best friend is no longer in a difficult situation than before." Li Mengyang said passionately, and saw Xu Xun raise his eyebrows.
But he dealt with the others with a smile, and those guys who used to be around him were now surrounding Xu Xun and Zhang Yong. He immediately gritted his teeth secretly. However, before he could say anything more prickly,
I suddenly felt like someone was coming to me.
"You...you are...Mr. Kong...Kongtong?" Zhu Houzhao took advantage of others to watch the proud young Xu Xun and the popular Zhang Yong. He rubbed oil on his soles and squeezed out. After asking, he saw Li Mengyang.
He lowered his face and neither said yes nor no, then rubbed his chin and said, "Yes... Mr. Mr. Shanxian's playwriting... is so penetrating that I don't know Kong... Mr. Kongtong is very good...
What?"
Li Mengyang felt a little contemptuous when he heard the other party's slurred speech and stammering. When he heard that the other party compared Kang Hai's plays that catered to ordinary people with his own, he was so angry that his face turned red and he couldn't help but improve.
He said in a loud voice: "Kang Duishan has a great literary reputation, but he is obsessed with the low-end drama. But he doesn't know that it is insulting to gentleness!"
Zhu Houzhao just asked casually out of curiosity, but it aroused such a fierce reaction from Li Mengyang. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly became angry. He forgot that this was in Ning Prince's Mansion, and immediately forgot to pretend to stutter, and actually retorted with anger.
Said: "What's so insulting about elegance? How can it not be the right way if drama and Taoism embody worldly sentiments and are appreciated by both refined and popular people? It's just empty talk without understanding the worldly affairs. It's just a scholar's spirit and pretentiousness. This is the person who doesn't understand elegance at all, and elegance is ruined!"
The voice was so loud that everyone around him looked over. It was only then that the little emperor in disguise realized that he was in trouble, and his head buzzed. Seeing Xu Xun looking at him with a dark face,
He forgot for a moment that he was the son of the day, and actually started to stutter unknowingly: "Cousin...cousin..."
Xu Xun didn't expect that Zhu Houzhao had promised him a good job by patting his breasts, but in the blink of an eye he would cause such a thing. He was angry and funny for a while. But when he saw Li Mengyang's face that was as swollen as pig liver, he suddenly felt a little worried.
I sympathized with this great talent, and immediately said with a straight face: "It usually takes a long time to say a word, but why was it so smooth just now when I was going toe-to-toe with someone?"
"I...I'm...not angry...so angry."
Seeing that the young man with pimples on his face suddenly became angry again, everyone around him couldn't help but let out a burst of good-natured laughter. However, someone came to Zhu Houzhao's rescue and said: "I often heard that when he is in a hurry, he even speaks very briskly.
I woke up, thinking that this young master is in a hurry. But Brother Kongtong, what is the point of arguing with this young and weak young man?"….
Since someone raised his head to cover up, Xu Xun had no choice but to glance at Zhu Houzhao again, and saw that Zhang Yong immediately pulled the person over knowingly. It was obviously a false accusation but a real reminder, so he looked at Li Mengyang who was unable to get off the stage and smiled half-heartedly.
He said: "Brother Kongtong is too serious. There is no point in arguing with a child. Among the seven sons, Brother Kongtong has always been the leader. No matter whether it is Shan or Baipo, they all have no objections and will not do it because of you."
Why would you criticize Duoshan's drama when I was demoted from Beijing and compete with you for fame? What's more, what my cousin just said is reasonable. Although drama is a trivial matter, it is appreciated by both refined and popular people, and it may not be able to be famous throughout the ages. Why bother to underestimate these? Of course?
, My cousin just said what he said, Mr. Kongtong has a lot, please don’t argue with children."
Seeing that Xu Xun was clearly apologizing to him, but everything in the words meant to make Kang Hai and others famous, Li Mengyang's face suddenly turned green and white, and it happened that the people around him kept making peace with each other, as if he would be intolerant of others if he cared about it.
As if. In the end, he couldn't help it anymore, and immediately sneered: "Forget it, I won't care about the children. I only have some books at home that I haven't finished reading, so I won't accompany you tonight!"
Li Mengyang, the celebrity specially invited by King Ning, just walked away, and for a moment there was a slight silence in the hall. Li Shishi, who was originally hiding behind the scenes, saw something was wrong, so he hurriedly came out and changed the subject with a few words.
He went over and invited Xu Xun to the table with a smile. Seeing Zhu Houzhao sitting down under Xu Xun honestly, he had to ask a few questions and learned that the young man named Zhu Shou was Xu Xun's brother-in-law.
For a moment, he even secretly complained about Li Mengyang's stupidity.
Prince Ning spent a lot of effort on this person, hoping that Li Mengyang's fame would be beneficial to big things, but he didn't expect that this person was so proud that he didn't even know how much he weighed, and he dared to show off to Xu Xun!
Not long after Xu Xun and Zhang Yong sat down, they heard the sound of King Ning Qiansui arriving. Xu Xun followed the sound, only to see a man in his early forties wearing a black gauze folded-up scarf and a red robe with a coiled collar and narrow sleeves.
A young man strode in. He had a handsome and elegant face, a smile on his lips, and a rather frivolous look in his eyes, but overall he was a rare handsome man. When he saw other people, they just stood up to greet him and bowed.
Even though they had saluted, Xu Xun just stood with Zhang Yong and cupped their hands. As for Zhu Houzhao's carelessness in saluting, he didn't notice at all.
Since Xu Xun and Zhang Yong did not say that they were coming under orders when they entered the city, Zhu Chenhao naturally pretended that he did not know such a thing. He smiled and said a few words like "Long Admiration" before he arrived at the main site.
They all sat down, but they did not politely greet everyone, but just said with a smile: "Today we welcome two rare distinguished guests, Pingbei Hou and Zhang Eunuch. This vassal has nothing good to entertain and present, only one thing is this vassal himself."
This is a small play rehearsed by the Fuzhong team, and I would like to invite Pingbei Marquis Zhang Eunuch and all of you to watch it!"
As soon as he heard that it was a play written by Prince Ning himself, Zhu Houzhao immediately became interested. Seeing that the curtain that had been set up before was removed from the platform in front of the hall, two actors in costumes came on the stage, and soon they started singing happily,
He couldn't turn his eyes away. Facing this scene, Xu Xun knew that Prince Ning might have known that all the drama in Xianyuan was arranged by him, so he wanted to do what he wanted. However, he was just using this as a means of public opinion.
, and some of the verses he is familiar with are from first-class classic operas. Nowadays, Prince Ning's amateur writing can't satisfy his extremely sophisticated taste. Therefore, even if he knows that everyone is paying attention to him, he
Still after the second performance ended, he yawned slightly and quietly left the table.
Seeing Xu Xun's perfunctory attitude, Zhu Chenhao couldn't help but darken his face, but after thinking about it, he stood up. When he got outside the hall, he saw two followers behind Xu Xun, who was stretching his arms and kicking his legs.
, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows...
"Marquis Pingbei, it's just a small show, hard to watch?"
Hearing such a voice coming from behind, Xu Xun turned his head and saw Zhu Chenhao just a few steps away. Compared with the other kings of the Qing Mansion he had seen before, this Prince Ning was obviously better in both image and demeanor.
He nodded with a smile and said: "Your Highness is joking, but as I have been traveling so fast these days, my body has almost been torn apart. If it hadn't been for the king's invitation, I would still be catching up on my sleep in bed right now, so I can only go out and stretch my muscles."
"
"That's it." Zhu Chenhao suddenly remembered that the person was rushing here from Nanjing. The anger he had just felt disappeared immediately, and he immediately said with a smile, "This vassal has admired Pingbeihou for a long time. It is said that since ancient times, heroes have been born in youth, and this vassal has admired him for a long time. The feudal lord didn't take it seriously in the past, but now that he sees it, he just feels that the rumor is worse than the meeting. I think it was probably just like this when the original champion Hou Yong won the three armies and made unparalleled achievements."
Although Xu Xun was very thick-skinned, comparing himself to Huo Qubing still made him feel goosebumps all over the floor. He coughed dryly and changed the subject: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning simply made me feel ashamed. How can Xun be so virtuous?"
"Yes, it's just because of the emperor's favor and repeated favors that I can reach my current high position, and I dare not forget my roots."
"Yes, yes, the emperor is very young but he is working hard to govern. We and other members of the clan are also very aware of it." Zhu Chenhao said the compliments sincerely. He felt that the heat was about the same, so he tried to test it, "I don't know about Pingbei."
Why did Hou and Eunuch Zhang suddenly change their route to Nanchang Prefecture this time when they were ordered to worship Xiaoling with Eunuch Liu and others?"
"Don't His Highness Prince Ning know?" Xu Xun asked directly. Seeing that Zhu Chenhao was caught off guard, he said with a smile, "Of course it's because of His Highness Prince Ning's affairs. The Duke of the capital is right.
The mother-in-law was right, but the emperor had no choice but to send all the trustworthy people here. After returning to the capital, he would consult them one by one. If the minority obeys the majority, the matter will be settled." (To be continued. If you like this movie,
