Chapter 503
Since returning to Yedu, Guo Jia has only appeared in Han Zhan’s prefecture twice, and then stayed in his mansion, drinking and having fun every day. Han Zhan himself was busy rehearsing Huangmei opera, so he didn’t ask anyone to call him.
Guo Jia didn't care much about it when he didn't see Han Zhan summoning him for a day or two. But for half a month, Han Zhan had never sent anyone to his mansion, which surprised Guo Jia. In order to figure out what was going on, he decided to visit him in person.
Guo Jia rode his horse to the front of the provincial governor's mansion. Robu, who was guarding the door, saw him and hurriedly greeted him and saluted: "Little Robu, I have seen the military advisor!"
Guo Jiale stopped the horse and leaned over and asked, "Robu, can the lord be in the mansion?"
"It's here!" Rob heard Guo Jia's question and nodded vigorously, saying in a affirmative tone: "In the past half month, I have never left the mansion for a single step."
"Half a month has not left the mansion?" Guo Jia turned over and dismounted, frowned and asked, "What are the things that the lord does in the mansion every day?"
Rob reached out to take the reins from Guo Jia's hand, pulled the horse toward the door of the mansion, and said, "The lord leads a group of women from the house every day to rehearse his newly compiled Huangmei Opera."
"Huangmei Opera?" Hearing Rob say this, Guo Jia showed a blank expression on his face. He asked in surprise: "What is Huangmei Opera?"
"My lord said that Huangmei Opera is a new opera..." As soon as Rob said halfway, he saw Guo Jia frowning, worried that he could not speak clearly, so he smiled and said, "Military advisor, he is stupid and can't explain clearly for a while. You might as well go to the mansion to see it with your own eyes. Once you look, you will understand what's going on."
Guo Jia nodded and walked towards the door of the mansion. The soldiers standing at the door hurriedly bowed to Guo Jia, and then opened the door. Rob threw the reins of the horse to one of the soldiers, asking him to lead the horse to the stable behind, and respectfully led Guo Jia into the mansion.
When there were twenty or thirty steps away from the backyard, Guo Jia heard the singing voice coming from the yard. He couldn't help but stop and said to Rob: "Is it the Huangmei Opera you are talking about?"
"That's right." Rob laughed and said, "The military advisor can go inside and listen, and you will be sure that you will like it if you hear it." When he said this, he glanced at the absent-minded soldiers at the entrance of the backyard and added, "The people you look at at the door are attracted by the Huangmei Opera inside." The strange singing style and the loss of composure of the soldiers at the door made Guo Jia full of interest in the Huangmei Opera invented by Han Zhan.
Guo Jia quickly walked into the yard and saw two young and beautiful women standing in the middle of the yard, singing the song he had just heard. Next to him was a group of women in music workshops accompanying them with musical instruments. His lord Han Zhan was leaning on a couch, listening with his eyes closed and his head shaking his head.
Seeing Han Zhan so fascinated, Guo Jia quickly took two steps and came to Han Zhan to bow and bow: "See the lord!"
Han Zhan, who was listening to Guo Jia's voice suddenly, opened his eyes quickly. When he saw Guo Jia standing in front of him, he quickly sat upright and greeted the other party, "It turns out that Fengxiao is here, sit down and listen to the song together."
Guo Jia didn't pay so much attention to Han Zhan. Seeing him calling him to sit down, he sat beside Han Zhan casually and asked curiously: "Lord, what are these women singing?"
"Huangmei Opera." After Han Zhan answered casually, he felt that he was not very detailed, and added: "It was me who figured it out by myself. How about Fengxiao? Does it sound good?"
"Not bad, not bad." Guo Jia thought that the way of singing this song was strange, but it was indeed good, so he nodded and said, "Not only the song was good, but these two women also sang it nicely. But I don't know what the song was called?"
"They are singing "The Female Prince Consort", the woman on the left plays the princess in the story, and the woman on the right plays Feng Suzhen. This story is about..." In order to arouse Guo Jia's interest, Han Zhan specially told the whole story of "The Female Prince Consort" in detail, and finally said: "In the end, the emperor took the initiative and released Li Zhaoting, who was wrongly imprisoned, and made him get married with Feng Suzhen, and the lovers finally got married."
"It's interesting, it's really interesting." After hearing Han Zhan's story about the complete female princess, Guo Jia looked at the two beautiful women singing in front of him, and nodded repeatedly and said, "The Huangmei Opera that the lord has figured out is indeed extraordinary. If it is spread, it will probably be popular in the capital soon."
"I plan to bring these women into the palace in a few days and sing the Huangmei Opera to the current emperor." Han Zhan said with a smile: "He stayed in the palace all day long and didn't think about going out for a walk. He always had to find something to relieve his boredom."
Hearing this, Guo Jia couldn't help but remain silent for a while. He thought that Han Zhan was trying to make this thing for his own fun and entertainment, but he didn't expect it to be for the current emperor. Although he was Han Zhan's military advisor, there were rumors in the capital that Han Zhan wanted to stand on behalf of the Han Dynasty. Although he did not believe this rumor, he felt a little resentful. When he saw Han Zhan's entertainment items prepared for Emperor Xian of Han, he felt that his lord would not have any rebellious intentions at all, otherwise he would not have tried his best to prepare these things for Emperor Xian of Han.
After Han Zhan finished speaking, Guo Jia would definitely express his opinions in the future. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear the sound. He turned his head and found that Guo Jia was staring at the woman singing the song in a daze. He raised his hand and slapped his shoulder and asked, "Fengxiao, look at you with a lot of worries, what are you thinking?"
Guo Jia woke up from his thoughts. He smiled at Han Zhan and said casually: "Lord, I think that if you only have one "The Female Prince Consort" and let Your Majesty listen to it twice, I'm afraid he will be bored. If you could have a few more Huangmei operas, it might be better."
"Don't worry about Fengxiao." Han Zhan thought that Guo Jia was just considering this matter, so he waved his hand and said carelessly: "How could I only prepare one "Female Prince Consort"? There is also a "Celestial Immortal" rehearsed Huangmei Opera. After this movie is finished, let them sing it to you. In addition, I have two movies, "Cowherd and Weaver Girl" and "Chasing Fish". Now it is time to polish Zhaoji and the others. After they finish writing, they can be formally rehearsed."
Although Han Zhan could remember many operas in his mind, it would be a time-consuming and laborious thing if he could write them one by one. Therefore, he thought of a compromise method, which was to gather Cai Yan and others and tell them the stories he knew. After the talk was finished, let them sort out these stories.
""The Fairy-Good"?!" When Han Zhan just told "The Female Prince Consort", Guo Jia was amazed. At this moment, he heard that there was another "The Fairy-Good" and asked quickly: "I wonder what story is it telling?"
"It's "The Fairy"?" Seeing that Guo Jia was interested in "The Fairy", Han Zhan coughed gently, cleared his throat, and began to introduce the drama to him: "Scholar Dong Yong sold himself as a slave to the Fu family, burying his father with the silver money he received, and filial piety was touching the sky. The seven fairies meant to think about the mortality, and the Jade Emperor ordered the seven fairies to come down to earth and cooperate with Dong Yong for a hundred days. On the day of work, Dong Yong became a couple with the seven fairies under the locust tree. Later, the seven fairies weaved ten brocades overnight.
Juan, Fu Yuanwai changed the three-year-old work to a hundred old ones; he also accepted Dong Yong, the Seven Fairies as his adopted son and adopted daughter. After the 100th day, the couple quit their job and went home. On the way, the Seven Fairies told Dong Yong that the truth was true, and gave him a silk skirt and a white fan treasure. He agreed to send him a child to meet on February 15th of the next year and return to the heavenly court under the shade of the locust tree..." Although the fairy-like match that Han Zhan told was very different from the Huangmei opera familiar to everyone in the future, Guo Jia still listened to it with relish.
After Han Zhan finished speaking, Guo Jia was still unsatisfied and asked repeatedly: "Lord, this "The Fairy" is really exciting, but I don't know what happened to "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" and "Chasing the Fish"?"
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Seeing Guo Jia's impatient look, Sokov couldn't help laughing: "Fengxiao, "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" and "Chasing the Fish" may take some time, so you should listen to "The Fairy" with peace of mind first." After that, Han Zhan stood up and raised his hand to interrupt the woman who was singing the song, and told them, "The Female Prince Consort will sing here first, and now sing "The Fairy" for Fengxiao."
