Yipin Tang

Chapter 45 The Idea of ​​a Stage Play
Wang Xiang's words in the Hall of Taiji saved Datang and Gaochang from a war. The army's expedition that was originally scheduled after the autumn harvest became a mission led by Changsun Wuji to Gaochang after the autumn harvest.Going out as an envoy is not about fighting, and ten Cheng Yaojin tied together can't match up to one Changsun Wuji, so no one is going to argue with Changsun Wuji about going to Gaochang. No one wants to fight about things.

The specific matters of the mission to Gaochang are still to be discussed, but Changsun Wuji, who cheated people to death, has already cheated someone first, but the person who was cheated still doesn't know anything.

On the second day, Wang Xiang went to Sinong Temple as usual, and then went to the palace to see Empress Changsun to receive ideological education. By the way, he had a royal meal at Lizheng Hall. Although he felt that the royal meal was not as delicious as his own food, no matter what. No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as eating back to Li Er once, and when I think of this, I feel a kind of inexplicable silly joy in my heart.

Li Zhi, a little ghost, now spends almost all his time fooling around with Wang Xiang except for sleeping at night, especially after he brought back the quill pen and the Three Character Classic yesterday, Empress Changsun gave him a task. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, strange and weird things are brought into the palace to show her first. A good future Emperor Taizong was initially trained by Empress Changsun as a spy.

After coming out of the Lizheng Palace, Li Zhi saw Wang Xiang's silly joy along the way and asked curiously: "Wang Jiancheng, why are you so happy today?"

Wang Xiang turned his head and glanced at Li Zhi, seeing his big eyes fluttering and shutting his mouth when he said something, if he told this brat that he was so happy because he ate a meal from their house, he would die of laughter. With a restrained smile, he straightened his face and said, "It's okay."

Li Zhi was confused by Wang Xiang's change, but he didn't take it to heart. Today he has something more concerned about. Little Lolita's cheongsam is ready. When he thinks of little Lolita wearing a cheongsam, Li Zhi is full of heart. full of excitement.

At this time, the backyard of the Linchuanhou Mansion was filled with birds and swallows. The eight maids that Degui bought from Ren Yazi were no longer as dilapidated and haggard as before after these days of care and grooming. Glowing, the whole Hou Mansion was a little bit more angry because of this.

Speaking of it, this is also Wu Shun's credit. Since Wang Xiang told Wu Shun the concept of welcoming guests and etiquette in restaurants, Wu Shun offered to help Wang Xiang train these little girls. Of course, Wang Xiang agreed 120 times.Wu Shun has a gentle temperament and is very kind to his servants. He usually looks pleasant when he trains them. These little girls are naturally very close to Wu Shun, which makes the little girl feel a little jealous, but it makes her feel better when she thinks that her sister only made a cheongsam for herself. some.

When Wang Xiang and Li Zhi came to the backyard, Xiaoya was distributing cheongsams to the little girls, and Xiaoluoli was pulling Wushun to act like a baby.This is the first time for the little girls to see cheongsams. They are all made of high-quality brocade, which feels silky and smooth to the touch.

"Little sister, how do you wear this dress?"

Hearing this, the little girl was also in trouble. She just sewed clothes according to the drawings drawn by Wang Xiang. As for how to wear them, she didn't know how to wear them, so she looked at Wu Shun for help.

Wu Shun said embarrassedly: "This cheongsam was conceived by my husband, and it's the first time I've seen it."

Wang Xiang, who stepped in, laughed: "Ma'am, don't worry, my husband will teach you how to wear a cheongsam."

"The young master is back." Xiaoya cheered happily.

When seeing Wang Xiang, the little girls who were chirping just now became more reserved and even a little scared. Wang Xiang couldn't help wondering: Am I so scary?

Little Lolita glanced at Wang Xiang with a guilty conscience. She didn't know why she had instilled Wang Xiang's vicious and tyrannical thoughts in these little girls these days.

The way to wear the cheongsam is not difficult, at least it is much easier than the clothes of the Tang Dynasty. Under Wang Xiang's guidance, Wu Shun quickly understood how to wear the cheongsam, so he took the little loli and the little girls into the house to change clothes , Wang Xiang and Li Zhi lay on the deck chairs in the courtyard and drank the juice leisurely. The juice is the latest honey pear juice made by Laifu. It is cool and smooth in the mouth, sweet and delicious, much better than the drinks of later generations.

Half an hour later, Wu Shun and the others finally changed their clothes, and the colorful cheongsams appeared together. Although Wang Xiang has seen many of them in later generations, they are still dazzled by them. The key to good cheongsams depends on the person. In other words, even the little girls bought by Degui are all beautiful and beautiful, and they look even more graceful under the background of the cheongsam.

The most conspicuous in the crowd was the little loli, who was wearing a bright red cheongsam and was particularly eye-catching. Like a little red elf, Li Zhi's soul was immediately taken away.

The little loli jumped up and down in front of Wang Xiang, and happily turned around and asked, "Brother-in-law, is it good-looking?"

Li Zhi hurriedly threw the juice aside and interjected, "It looks good, Sister Xiao Wu looks really good today!"

"Then I didn't look good before?"

"It was beautiful before, but it is even more beautiful today."

"It's almost there."

This brat is getting more and more slippery, Wang Xiang shook his head and ignored the two of them, now that everything is ready, it is almost time to open the Immortal Tower. Speaking of which, it has been more than a month since the restaurant closed for rest, I am afraid that Degui has been waiting for a long time. Anxious.

After calling Degui over and explaining it carefully, Wang Xiang quietly went to Yicui Tower that night.

……

"Zixin, you haven't come to my place for quite a while, I thought you forgot about me after you got married."

Why does this resentful tone seem to have some deep meaning? Wang Xiang smiled awkwardly and said, "It's really because I'm too busy these days. No, my restaurant will be ready to open in a few days."

"Oh?" Ning Xiang suddenly became interested, and said: "I remember you said that the restaurant opened and you wanted to ask me for a favor. It seems that if the restaurant hadn't opened, you probably wouldn't come to my place today."

Wang Xiang was at a loss for words for a moment, Ning Xiang burst out laughing and stopped teasing him, and said, "Tell me, what can I do for you?"

Wang Xiang took out a stack of rice paper from his arms and handed it to Ningxiang.

"what is this?"

"Here are some lyrics and music of my new work."

A flash of surprise flashed in Ning Xiang's eyes when she heard the words, and she quickly opened the rice paper, which was densely written in small characters, all of which were written by Wang Xiang, a total of ten classic songs from later generations.

"This..." No wonder Ning Xiang was so surprised, let alone ten lyrics and music, even one lyrics and music is hard to come by.

Wang Xiang continued: "I would like to ask Ning Xiang to sing some lyrics and music at the restaurant on the day the restaurant opens."

Ningxiang suddenly realized, hesitated for a moment and asked, "I wonder if I can ask some sisters to help me?"

Wang Xiang was stunned for a moment, then he said happily: "Of course, it's better, we don't just sing songs, we can make a stage play, with acting and singing, the effect will definitely be better."

Ning Xiang asked curiously: "What is a stage play?"

Wang Xiang excitedly explained the stage play, and Ningxiang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but praise: "Zixin's talent is really rare, to think of something like a stage play."

Wang Xiang smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, I also saw something similar in a book before I came up with a whim."

"Others can't figure it out." Ning Xiang smiled softly, "It's just that this stage play is probably much more difficult than singing, especially the script that Zixin said..."

"There's nothing wrong with the script. It's just that the white fox song I wrote to you earlier is a very good script with a slight adaptation. It's just that the stage play requires not only singing but also acting. Rehearsal is especially important."

Ningxiang thought for a while and said, "How about I ask a few sisters to come over and listen to you talk about how to rehearse the stage play, and then they will be familiar with it."

Wang Xiang thought it was reasonable and nodded in agreement.

The sisters that Ningxiang invited were the most popular girls in Yicuilou, one of them was Qing'er whom Wang Xiang had met last time, and she was a little embarrassed to see Wang Xiang Qing'er again, but Wang Xiang didn't care.

"Let me introduce to you, this is sister Xiaoyun, this is sister Qing'er, and this is sister Xiaobei."

"Who is this……"

Xiaoyun smiled sweetly and said, "Sister, I know it even if I don't say it. This is the prince who overwhelmed the four great talents in Luoyang in the Jinguang Lake Poetry Association. Our sisters in Yicuilou admire the prince very much."

Wang Xiang hurriedly said modestly: "It's just a few so-so poems that I got lucky for a while."

Qing'er asked curiously: "I don't know why sister Ningxiang asked Xiao Cui to call us over?"

Before Ningxiang got Wang Xiang's consent, she directly handed the rice paper with lyrics and music to Qing'er. Qing'er took it in doubt and said in surprise: "Sister has so many good lyrics and music!"

Hearing Qing'er's exclamation, Xiaoyun and Xiaobei also moved forward curiously.

Ningxiang smiled and said: "These are the ten lyrics and music that Wang Gongzi gave me just now." If someone else is in Ningxiang, they still call Wang Xiang Wanggong.

Qing'er enviously said: "Young Master Wang is really kind to my sister. I think I spent a lot of effort to find a new song with Mr. Ma, but it is inferior to the ten lyrics and music of Mr. Wang. too much."

Seeing Xiaoyun and Xiaobei also looked envious, Ningxiang smiled and said: "This is not written by the prince specially for me, and some younger sisters also have it."

"There are us too?" Xiaoyun and Qing'er couldn't believe it, they didn't seem to be very familiar with Wang Xiang.

Ningxiang smiled: "The lyrics and music are nothing, please sit down first, my sisters, and listen to Mr. Wang tell you about the stage play. I think you will be even more surprised after listening to it."

"stage show?"

Xiaoyun and the others were all stunned when Wang Xiang said the idea of ​​the stage play. They had never heard of such a novel idea, especially when they heard that they could participate in the stage play changed by Baihu. The son was even more pleasantly surprised.You must know that it is because of the name of Baihu Ningxiang that Chang'an City has been spread, and many people even come here from far away to listen to Ningxiang sing a white fox. How can the performance not be overjoyed.

Looking at Shang Xiaoyun and Qing'er's scorching eyes, Wang Xiang couldn't take it anymore, and said quickly: "It's getting late, so I'll go back first, and I'll bring the revised script back tomorrow."

Xiaoyun and Qing'er heard the words and stepped forward to hold Wang Xiang's arm and said coquettishly, "Why wait until tomorrow, Mr. Wang, let's change the script now."

Feeling the silky feeling from Wang Xiang's arm, Wang Xiang was extremely embarrassed, but at this moment Ning Xiang said: "The two sisters should let the prince go, he has a family now, if he doesn't go back, it will be difficult. "

Why does this sound a little weird...

"It turns out that the prince's family still has a charming wife."

"If you have a wife, can't you come to our Yicui Building?"

Although they said so, they still reluctantly let go of Wang Xiang, but deliberately rubbed his arm. The provocative Wang Xiang almost couldn't control himself, and finally fled amidst the teasing laughter of the girls.
