Jinyi champion

Chapter 414

Zhu Hao and his party went to Beijing.

Two sleeping places were temporarily set up, one in an inn and one in a mansion arranged by Su Xigui.

According to the plan, Zhu Hao will stay in the inn for a while, and Tang Yin will live in the mansion. If something happens, he will ask Lu Song to contact him. Zhu Hao will rent a residence in the future to hide his whereabouts.

On the second day after arriving in the capital, Tang Yin left the inn early in the morning, and went directly to Zhu Hao's guest room when he came back. At this time, Zhu Hao was immersed in writing a play.

"I've seen Luo Dianzhang... Although the son's movements are not restricted now, the inspections around his residence are very strict. There are rumors that Jiang Bin has also served as a guard in Jinyi, and he is about to make a name for himself. The inspections in various parts of the capital are becoming more and more strict...

"As soon as the son arrived in the capital, he followed the strategy you wrote and started to enjoy the fun. In fact, you want to take the opportunity to send the opera troupe to the son so that we can communicate with each other?"

Tang Yin explained the situation and at the same time expressed his conjecture.

Zhu Hao smiled and nodded: "Exactly."

Tang Yin took a breath, and said: "I have already guessed that you are on the way to Beijing, and you will not say anything about the troupe for no reason... It seems that you have already planned everything, and you are the one who proposed Su Dongzhu's troupe to him, right?"

"That's not true. It's because he himself wanted to present a treasure to the present saint, and he asked me to help him train the theater troupe... I didn't refuse. Even if he didn't look for a theater troupe, I would find a way to form a new troupe." , Yu San came with me, he has experience in managing theater troupes."

Zhu Hao looked relaxed.

Tang Yin said again: "Then what do you want to discuss after meeting your son?"

Zhu Hao spread his hands: "We have arrived in the capital, and there is no established strategy... We need to adapt to everything we encounter. In such matters, we will always be passive and need to see what happens."

"See tricks and break tricks?"

Tang Yin has never read the martial arts scripts compiled by Zhu Hao, so he is very confused about these new terms.

Zhu Hao explained: "It's just waiting for others to attack first. We see other people's tricks and then respond. What we have to do now is to get in touch with Shizi first, so that he can feel that he is not alone in the capital. With our help, Let him relax... The purpose of the entire trip to the capital is mainly to let the prince face all difficulties with peace of mind and rely on us more and more, so there is no need to plan too much in advance."

Tang Yin nodded knowingly.

Think about Zhu Si, a child who left home for the first time, was taken as a hostage and taken to the capital, wandering around alone and helpless is the most terrifying thing, their existence makes Zhu Si psychologically dependent.

"It's rare that you are so thoughtful, thinking that you want the son to be trapped in the capital for a long time." Tang Yin couldn't help expressing emotion when he thought that Zhu Hao was the main behind-the-scenes force behind Zhu Si's entry into the capital.

Zhu Hao said: "Actually... staying in the capital is not bad. To put it bluntly, if something really happens to that one in the south... it will save the time for the auxiliary minister to go to Anlu to summon him to the capital to succeed him. "

Tang Yin was speechless.

"Okay, sir, since we've arrived in the capital, we have to do things well... You are open and secret, you should pay more visits to old people in the capital, act in a high-profile way, and let the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei focus on you. It depends on my performance."

……

……

Before Zhu Hao and Tang Yin entered the capital, they had already made a division of labor.

Tang Yin knew a lot of people in the capital, but most of them were friends on paper. There were not many people who really wanted to see him, but Tang Yin was not an official after all, and there was no need to shy away from meeting those who were in official positions.

After all, Tang Yin has a great reputation in the literary world.

Those who want to see him are not necessarily looking for poems or paintings. One must know that Tang Yin's ability to write articles is also very strong. Just writing an epitaph or a eulogy can double the glory of the deceased.

Tang Yin has a profound attainment in literature, so naturally there are people who want to take advantage of his value. Even if he doesn't necessarily want to see the people he goes to see, he has to be perfunctory, and he won't just turn him away.

For a time, the literary world of the capital quickly spread that Tang Yin, an old scholar who had failed in the examination field, came to the capital.

The literary circle itself is not big, a group of people are full and have nothing to do, and they all want to see Tang Yin's skills, especially northern scholars, who have long disliked Tang Yin, a well-known talent in the south of the Yangtze River, what ability do you have to be popular with the world respected by people?He also wanted to meet him in person to test his depth, and for a while Tang Yin became a favorite.

Taking advantage of Tang Yin's presence everywhere, showing up to visit old friends, Zhu Hao has already seen the theater troupe sent by Su Xigui, and found that he is really rich and able to do things.

The theater troupe is very large, with nearly a hundred people up and down. There are about twenty musicians who play and sing alone. The actors range from young to old. Halfway through, even married women are graceful and charming, and you can tell that they have been specially practiced as soon as they cast ecstasy-like winks.

"Anlu's repertoire is quite famous in Jiangbei. Especially in the past two years, it has been imitated everywhere. Even some old southern opera troupes in Jiangnan are also reforming their repertoire. The singing methods they use basically continue Anlu's past..."

The theater troupe has no obvious leader, only a few old musicians, equivalent to the level of small troupe masters, each leading a group of people to train.

An old musician surnamed Yin, who traveled all over the world at first glance, and was used to seeing scenes, told Zhu Hao, a "consultant", about the current situation of troupes struggling to survive in various places.

Especially after Anlu opera became popular in the north and south of the country, some old-school opera troupes felt more and more difficult to survive.

The musician surnamed Yin here spoke enthusiastically, but Zhu Hao became a little impatient. He looked at the shopkeeper Jin and asked, "Old Jin, please make arrangements and pick a few good-looking women, preferably women with good looks." , Arrange for a play where a woman is the pillar, and go out and perform for a while."

Shopkeeper Jin hurriedly nodded and bowed: "Yes, yes."

This troupe was bought by Su Xigui, and everyone signed a contract of sale for at least [-] years, which means that they will all be bought out by Su Xigui in the future.

Although there is no troupe master, Su Xigui's business in the capital is in charge of Jin Treasurer. Jin Treasurer has a high status in the eyes of the troupe. Unexpectedly, he is respectful in front of a kid who looks like he is joking, including Yin Musician and several stewards. There was a hint of confusion in them.

This means...

We were changed hands?

This handsome young man is not our new boss, is he?

"Choose quickly. Let's rehearse a play today, and someone will hire you to perform tomorrow." Zhu Hao said.

Musician Yin asked: "Dare to ask this young master, who invited us to sing? But people from the government?"

Zhu Haodao: "Of course it's someone from the government... You don't say hello to me, I can only raise money temporarily."

Only then did everyone feel relieved.

So you are a middleman!

The head of Jin stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person, knowing that you were sending money for the introduction, so he was polite to you, you little doll is well dressed, but your feelings are just a tooth.

Naturally, shopkeeper Jin couldn't tell this group of people who Zhu Hao was. Zhu Hao's identity was a secret. He was afraid of being known about the relationship between Zhu Hao and Su Xigui, and afraid of ruining Zhu Hao's reputation. ...obviously not something to be proud of.

"Call out all the actresses, and I'll pick and choose."

Zhu Hao geared up, eager to try.

People in the troupe saw that this intermediary wanted to "use public equipment for private use" and take advantage of the opportunity?

Do you want to take advantage of the actress?
But it seems too young!

Shopkeeper Jin acted swiftly and resolutely, and immediately asked people to call out the pillars of the female stage in the troupe, and lined up the people in a row for Zhu Hao to choose.

……

……

It's not that Zhu Hao favors women over men and wants to have something to do with female actors.

It's because it's relatively convenient to find a young and beautiful woman to sing for Zhu Si, and create an illusion that Zhu Si is close to women and doesn't want to make progress...

There is another reason, the male actors have been in Liyuan for a long time, all of them are shrewd philistines, their mouths may not be so reliable, but they are not as good as the relatively innocent female actors.

It is also easier for female actors to coerce and seduce, and try to prevent people from thinking in the direction of "this boy took the troupe to sing in order to contact King Xiaoxing".

The actors are arranged.

The play will be rehearsed soon, and there is no need to be complicated. Just use the ready-made "Legend of the White Snake" and perform a trip to the lake to borrow an umbrella. The opera often sung is equivalent to the originator of Anlu local opera.

Outsiders basically knew about this play, and they didn't think Zhu Hao was a brilliant consultant.

After learning about Zhu Hao's repertoire, Music Master Yin came over to remind him: "Young master, this play is known to everyone in the north and south of the river, I'm afraid no one would like to listen to this play specifically?"

The treasurer Jin said impatiently: "If you are told to line up, you can line up. Why are there so many gossips? If you offend the young master, no wonder you are all sold to Kuyao!"

Yin Yueshi was stunned by the scolding.

Only then did I realize that although this young master is small, his status is very high. Otherwise, why would the treasurer Jin be so disregarding of his feelings and scold them on the spot as a group of "money cows"?
"Lao Jin, needless to say, he's too old-fashioned, he's just an ordinary person, he's just singing a show... You just rehearse, and I'll take you to sing tomorrow."

Naturally, Zhu Hao doesn't have to worry about the problem of no one being hired. He can arrange for Zhu Si. He only needs to say hello to Luo An. He has won the trust of the palace, how can he, a warrior, have the qualifications to express his opinions casually?

Zhu Si and Tang Yin, who doesn't listen to Zhu Hao?

During rehearsals, Zhu Hao called all the performers over, especially the musicians who were to be recruited, and they needed to make it clear in person.

"When you arrive at the place tomorrow, you should keep your eyes on the ground, keep your ears off the stage, act as if you didn't see what you see, and let what you hear go in your left ear and out in your right ear... If anyone can't do it and insists on chewing their tongues, then Maybe it’s really necessary to ask Treasurer Jin to do something extreme... Can you accept it?”

Zhu Hao's words were pure threats.

Several musicians and female actors had never seen this kind of appointment, and a female actress asked directly: "The requirements are so strict, are we going to enter the palace?"

"It's not going to the palace! Okay, I don't want this person anymore. She talks so much, it's not suitable for tomorrow's scene, so replace her...Hide it for a month."

Zhu Hao was not polite.

If you don't talk or ask, since you don't understand, you can only make an example of others.

Unexpectedly, the female actress was replaced by someone like this. She felt unwilling and wanted to say something. The shopkeeper Jin came over and said: "Young master's words are the boss's words. Whoever doesn't listen will have to blame themselves if they suffer. Let's go down!"

　I slept through it, woke up already at [-]:[-], quickly typed, and only sent an update now... Sorry!
