Daming: I have a showdown, my father-in-law is the emperor

Chapter 257 Storytellers

After Chen Fan returned home, he asked his servants to find Steward Wang.

Less than 3 minutes.

Butler Wang hurried over.

"Master, are you looking for an old slave?"

Butler Wang still looked puzzled, isn't the young master going to visit Chunfeng Tower after lunch?
Why did you come back just after you left the house?

Butler Wang really doesn't understand.

It's not the fault of Butler Wang, he didn't know about Chang Ping's coming to look for Chen Fan.

Moreover, Changping didn't stay for long, so no one notified Butler Wang in time.

Chen Fan picked up the tea on the table and moistened his throat, then said unhurriedly:
"I'm planning to get engaged to Princess Changping. Find out if there are any auspicious days recently? So we can hold the engagement banquet."

what?
Butler Wang opened his mouth wide in surprise.

When did you get engaged to Princess Changping?
Why hasn't he heard the young master mention such an important matter before?

This is too sudden!
The Steward Wang, Princess Changping, has also seen it, and he has only visited the National Teacher's Mansion a few times in total.

When did the two of them fall in love?
A small flame of gossip surged in Steward Wang's heart.

"Young Master, when did this happen? Why has this old slave never heard of it?"

Chen Fan explained.

"I ran into Chang Ping when I went out just now. She came here to talk to me about this matter. After we communicated and discussed, we decided to get engaged."

Butler Wang was stunned when he heard this. This is too childish!

However, it doesn't matter.

The most important thing is that the young master wants to marry a wife and have children, and let the rest go.

"Young master, don't worry, this old slave will definitely prepare everything, find an auspicious day, and hold the engagement banquet in a splendid manner."

Steward Wang said he was sure of the ticket and looked very excited.

The young master is finally going to marry a wife and have a son, and the one who is most happy is Steward Wang.

Steward Wang mentioned it to the young master several times before, but the young master has no intention of finding a wife at all.

This made Butler Wang very anxious.

In the Ming Dynasty, for a person as old as the young master, all the children in the family would play soy sauce.

But the young master was not in a hurry at all.

The young master is the only owner of such a large Imperial Prefect's residence, which is not a good sign in the opinion of Butler Wang.

just now.

The National Teacher's Mansion is finally about to welcome its hostess, which also means that the National Teacher's Mansion is about to start to bloom.

Butler Wang is already this old and has very little time left.

He is very satisfied with his current life.

If Steward Wang had any expectations, he hoped that the people in the National Teacher's Mansion would prosper and continue to prosper.

"There may be people from the palace coming to discuss the engagement banquet, and then you can negotiate."

Chen Fan didn't know much about these etiquettes and customs, so he wasn't going to participate.

Let Steward Wang arrange everything, and he can go directly to the engagement banquet when the time comes.

Steward Wang said with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, young master, we will definitely arrange the engagement banquet to be lively and beautiful, so as not to damage the face of the royal family and the State Teacher's Office."

Chen Fan waved his hand and stopped him: "The engagement banquet doesn't need to be known to everyone, it's better to keep it low-key. I just plan to invite Chongzhen's family to participate, and treat it as a family banquet."

Butler Wang hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Young Master, will this be too small to show the dignity of the royal family and the State Teacher's Mansion?"

In Wang Steward's view, one side of the engagement banquet is the royal family and the other is the National Teacher's Mansion, so the pomp must be grand so as not to insult the dignity of the royal family and the National Teacher's Mansion.

If it's just two families having a meal, it's too boring.

Chen Fandao: "The engagement banquet is just a meal for two families, how can it be so grand!"

Besides, everyone is busy during this time.

When Chen Fan announced the construction plan of the capital, these Ministers and Ministers might be too busy to keep their feet on the ground.

It would be unreasonable to bring them over for an engagement banquet.

"Okay, everything is according to the young master."

Butler Wang said regretfully.

He still felt that even if it was an engagement banquet, it should be held in a splendid manner.

One is the royal family, and the other is the National Teacher's Office.

If this engagement banquet is held in a petty manner and spread, it will damage the dignity of the two families.

"Okay, then go down and get ready!"

Chen Fan waved his hand and immediately started chasing people away.

Before Butler Wang could react, Chen Fan left with Qiao Zhidong.

Chen Fan sat in the car all the way to Chunfeng Building.

After getting off the car, Chen Fan stood in front of the gate of Chunfeng Building with great emotion, and hadn't been here for some days.

There are not many guests coming to Chunfeng Building at this point, only a few people.

Generally, it is not until the evening that there will be an endless stream of guests in the Chunfeng Building.

As soon as Chen Fan walked into the lobby of Chunfeng Building, he found something different from usual.

On the table in the lobby, there was an old man with white beard who was telling a story to a few guests.

When it comes to the wonderful things, it will also attract everyone's applause.

Chen Fan hadn't seen this kind of business in Chunfenglou before.

Chen Fan has also heard of the profession of storyteller.

Generally speaking, the owners of some restaurants and teahouses will invite storytellers to increase the popularity of the store.

In the ancient times when entertainment was scarce, common people still sought after storytellers.

but.

What puzzled Chen Fan was, isn't the business of Chunfenglou always good?

No matter what, please invite storytellers to gather popularity.

Just when Chen Fan couldn't figure it out.

The storyteller spoke.

"That Zhao Yun white horse and silver spear fought against all the generals. He was mighty and ferocious. He killed seven in and seven out on the Changban slope, killing the enemy with their helmets and armor, and they were routed."

Having said that, there was a lot of applause below.

"Have you listened to Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

Chen Fan nodded, this is okay.

I only heard that the scholar continued: "But Changbanpo is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She is the top oiran in Yihongyuan. After calming down, she got entangled several times and made Zhao Yun retreat..."

"it is good!"

"Wonderful!"

The guests below immediately started booing, some whistled and some slapped the table.

Chen Fan was speechless. He thought it was the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but he didn't expect it to be a pornographic version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

He seemed to understand now why Chunfenglou hired a storyteller.

When Chen Fan listened with gusto, Mama Yang came over.

"Sir, the room has been arranged."

As soon as Yang's mother heard that the imperial master was coming, she quickly asked her servants to prepare a good room.

"Well, then let's go up!"

Chen Fan came back to his senses.

Not to mention, this storyteller is very good at arousing emotions, and the stories he tells are wonderful, and they are indeed attractive.

It's a pity that such a talent came here to tell stories.

They should have a broader stage and a higher mission.

And by no means just a storyteller.

While Chen Fan was following Mama Yang upstairs, Chen Fan had already found a better and more promising job for storytellers all over the world.

A job that pays well, a job with a well-established job, and a job that will definitely make them feel excited.
