Ping An Biography

Sometimes the relationship between people is extremely delicate.Under the existing order, Zhang Ning has a clean net worth and social status, so the relationship between Fang Ling and him is in a very passive and unequal situation; but two days later, Zhang Ning introduced Mr. Su and others to meet her, Seeing Mr. Su's admiration beyond words, and his desire to see but not to see, Fang Ling immediately seemed to be unattainable.

In the circle of celebrities, Fang Ling doesn't pay much respect to people like Mr. Su, and hides behind the bamboo curtain in the inner room, only hearing the sound and seeing no one; while Mr. Su and others are very respectful, as if they are visiting some important person... It is true that even though the name Ji is of humble origin, it is said that the status is low, but it is out of reach for ordinary people.

Zhang Ning couldn't help sighing secretly, how could she be lacking in people's pursuit, why should she put down her body to beg for others' affection?

The other two people who came with Su Gongzi were also talented scholars and celebrities, and they were talking about the rhythm of opera.Although Fang Ling is a woman, she has extraordinary knowledge in such elegant things, and her words often make celebrities praise her.

And Zhang Ning is a bit like soy sauce. In order to avoid the embarrassment of being completely out of his mouth, he also joined in the fun and talked about some general views. Fortunately, as long as we don’t talk about specifics, we only talk about the concept of the general direction, which seems to be the same thing , not a shame.

When everyone talked about southern opera and northern opera, Zhang Ning said: "Northern opera has a rigorous structure, while southern opera has a long and beautiful flow. If we combine the strengths of the two, can we create a new genre?"

It was just a casual bluff, but Mr. Su gave a lot of face, and then explained Zhang Ning's point of view with professional arguments, thinking that this method is feasible.I don't know if it's Zhang Ning's good idea, or Mr. Su's intention to save face.He has always wanted to make friends with "Gu Chunhan", and he can only get what he wants through Zhang Ning, so he can't embarrass Zhang Ning, right?

Zhang Ning is really a half-baked in opera. He has heard a lot of operas in Biyuan, and he has learned a lot of basic things about it, but it is not enough to understand deeply. Immortal" is simply incomparable with someone like Fang Ling.Just like modern football, most people know that scoring the opponent's goal is considered a win, but only those true fans can understand the tactics and skills, and can only enjoy watching an exciting game; amateurs like Zhang Ning In my previous life, watching the World Cup was just a matter of fun, but I didn't understand what was brilliant about it...

Su Liangchen said: "As Brother Pingan said, the lyrics, music and singing can combine the strengths of the north and the south. If Mrs. Gu can improve the dance technique for the new song, the new singing will definitely achieve something. It is not a joke to predict that it will flourish for a while. "

Encouraged by Su Liangchen, he was not afraid of making fun of him. He never said that he was an expert, and it was okay to make jokes. Then he remembered the idea he had learned in Biyuan: "Since you want to innovate, don't stick to the existing ones of Nanbei Opera. Ben, why don't we write a new play, like "The Peony Pavilion", which is more entertaining, and also gives Mrs. Gu a good start."

"What is the Peony Pavilion?" Su Liangchen asked cooperatively.

Zhang Ning said flickeringly: "When I was a judge in Yangzhou, I heard a legend among the people. In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a talented woman named Du Liniang. Once in the garden, she had a dream and had a tryst with the scholar in the dream by the Peony Pavilion. After waking up The lovesickness became sick and the jade was lost. Later, the scholar went to Beijing to take the exam and passed by the Peony Pavilion. He picked up Du Liniang's self-portrait and found that Du Liniang was the beauty of his dream. Finally get married."

"This legend is really interesting." A pleasant voice came from behind the bamboo curtain. Su Liangchen and others hurriedly held their breath and listened attentively.I heard Fang Ling say again: "The ending is especially good, I like it very much." <Han Du expressed his opinion, Su Liangchen and others immediately decided that this book was good, and racked their brains to praise it, lest they be left behind. The words, immediately elevate the story to a higher level, as if it has some special meaning besides entertaining the public.

Su Liangchen said solemnly: "I think it's better to do it this way. This book is first written as a storybook, and then published. Our family's printing workshop will do it, so it can have a foundation of popularity."

Zhang Ning said: "It happens that I'm free these days, so I'll write the book, Mr. Su will complete the song, and then we'll fill in the lyrics according to the plot of the story book, and hand it over to Mrs. Gu for rehearsal. How about this?"

"That's a good thing. Brother Ping'an was once the most talented person in Yingtianfu. There is no one more suitable for you to write this book." Su Liangchen said.

Zhang Ning said that the pressure is not great. This kind of storybook is not long, the story is simple, and the ink in his stomach is completely enough.Writing a story may not be as difficult as writing a memorial. <Han's voice said. <Han said: "The right person can be selected in the spring cold pear garden."

Seeing the disappointment on Su Liangchen's face, Zhang Ning also looked forward to Fang Ling's display of talent. For a moment, he felt that she should not be imprisoned, and said, "If the first performance is performed by Mrs. Gu herself, it will definitely be something extraordinary." <Han Silent After waiting for a while, he said, "Then I will only perform one performance."

At this moment, the other three couldn't help casting envious glances at Zhang Ning. Seeing that his words were so effective in front of Mrs. Gu, everyone couldn't help guessing that the two of them might have something else to do with each other.

Several people talked for a long time, and wanted to ask Fang Ling to sing a song. According to the rules, as long as she played and sang a song at will, she would get a lot of money. In addition, Mr. Su and his gang were all rich, and the money would definitely be more than the general rules. several times.Unexpectedly, Fang Ling declined politely, saying, "I'm already a married woman, so I'm waiting to read the good books of the young masters."

When they left, Su Liangchen reminded privately: "Yang Shaobao, who is the most respected today, likes to listen to operas the most. If brother Ping'an needs help from his subordinates, please don't speak foreign words."

"Thank you in advance for Mr. Su's kindness." Zhang Ning hurriedly clasped his fists together.

Su Liangchen didn't mention his brother's marriage to Zhang Xiaomei's. Presumably, he tried to woo Zhang Ning in many ways, not just in marriage... Zhang Ning and Luo Yaoniang had a close correspondence in letters, which may have been found out by the Su family.

The Su family is as rich as a country, but there is no one in the court. It should not be easy to sit back and enjoy the wealth. The interest relationship is extremely complicated. Now they have been wooing Zhang Ning, which shows their vision and network information; It's not that easy either.People in the Ming Dynasty were very skilled at playing this kind of thing. During Taizu's time, the Shen family, the richest man in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, was unfortunately missed by the emperor, so there was really no way.

... Zhang Ning quickly wrote out the script, revised and polished it several times, and handed it over to Su Liangchen for publication.The new book produced by the Su family printing workshop, the name of Paper Decoration Han has not yet been printed in Nanjing. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ning won a nickname first, which is also the halo of Mr. Su's celebrity.In the old courtyard and the four places of love and moon, it was rumored that Zhang Pingan was a literary talent and was composing a new song "Su Tune" with Mr. Su. People were looking forward to it early.

Zhang Ning had nothing to do in Wu Yuan, and his official documents became less and less, but he suddenly received invitations to look at him, and his mother belonged to a brothel.The subordinates that Wu Yuanzhong was familiar with occasionally joked about it.

Liu Mingyue, who is known as the number one beauty in Shanhefang, also sent an invitation card, saying that it was a Mid-Autumn festival boat to enjoy the moon and have a drink in Qinhuai.Zhang Ning just threw it aside and ignored it, gnashing his teeth with the envy of the officials in the Siwufang.

Su Liangchen quickly sorted out the music, as if he had been seeking a breakthrough for the past few years, and he didn't act hastily at this time. The name of "The Immortal in the Music" is not entirely a vain name or just relying on family wealth. He did do something in the past, including revising the music scores of his predecessors and compiling ancient books on rhythm, etc., and published many books.

The next step is to fill in lyrics and songs, Tang poetry, Song lyrics and Yuan songs, and operas are also a creation of poetry and songs.In addition to paying attention to flat rhymes, beautiful diction is also required. Unfortunately, he can't remember most of the lyrics and music content of "The Peony Pavilion". This task is really difficult, and Zhang Ning spent a lot of time.

It is said that opera singing and dancing are done by actors, but in fact many jobs are done by bureaucrats and literati. Without literati, it is difficult for this industry to develop.

Zhang Ning claimed that Ying Tianfu was extremely talented and learned, but the job of writing music really made him lose a lot of hair.Although I have Zhang Ning's previous scriptures in my mind, it is not easy to use them, and it took a lot of effort to copy and compile them. <The Cold Pear Garden has not yet opened, and it has become more and more popular in Nanjing City. If it continues like this, invitations will be issued for the first game, and only a few people will be invited. If there are no restrictions, Fang Ling will definitely not be able to sit in that building.
