The happy life of a prodigal

All in all, go for it! "

Poverty cannot be moved, and might cannot be bent.

This is Fang Xiu's consistent principle.

It's just...it depends on the person.

For a simple and lovely girl like Zhao Yan, there is nothing shameful in compromising once in a while.

At least, in his own opinion, it is true.

During this period of time, due to the war, many industries in the capital became somewhat depressed.

Only the Beijing Normal University Theater was not affected by the war, but became more popular.

Perhaps knowing that the days of peace are few days away, many people have become more enthusiastic about going to the Beijing Normal University Theater to watch dramas.

The Jingshi Grand Theater also became full of seats.

Even "The Romance of the West Chamber", which has been staged dozens of times, is full of seats when it is re-staged.

Of course, Old Man Sun, the class leader of the Beijing Normal University Theater...that is, the owner of Goulan, did not slack off in the slightest because of this.

Every once in a while a new play is rehearsed.

And these new dramas are precisely the most popular among the people in the capital.

Even many princes and nobles never get tired of going to the Beijing Normal University Theater to watch plays.

"Master, Miss Zhao, your seats are here."

A young man was leading the way, and said respectfully.

As the actual owner of the Beijing Normal University Theater, Fang Xiu had the best seat when he came to watch a play here.

Although there is no box in the Beijing Normal University Theater, there are still differences between the several golden theater seats and other seats.

For example, the seats here are much more spacious, and there are tables with fruits and pastries in the middle.

The line of sight is much better than ordinary seats.

Fang Xiu sat on the left, and Zhao Yan sat beside him.

For a moment, Fang Xiu actually had the feeling of watching a movie with a friend in a previous life.

In fact, there is no difference.

"The Strange Case of Kyoto Prefecture is a script written by the Beijing Normal University Theater itself. I heard that it is based on real events."

As soon as she sat down, Zhao Yan showed an expectant expression on her face, and introduced excitedly.

There are generally two sources of dramas staged in the Beijing Normal University Theater.

One is adapted from Zhuxuanzhai's script, such as "The Romance of the West Chamber", which was popular in the whole of Gyeonggi before, belongs to this category. "The Strange Case of Kyoto Prefecture" belongs to this category.

Of course, no matter which category it is, there is nothing worth watching for Fang Xiu.

He is used to watching all kinds of movies and TV series in his previous life, but in his view, there is nothing particularly attractive about them.

For many plots, you can guess the second half after reading the first half.

Of course, for Zhao Yan, a native of Chu, many plots in the Beijing Normal University Theater have never been seen or heard before.

"It's about to start!"

With the sound of a gong, the curtain slowly opened, and Zhao Yan looked very excited beside him.

Fang Xiu looked towards the stage, and just saw the familiar scene arrangement, and he knew it in his heart.

It's nothing more than the plot of trial and judgment, and there is nothing novel about it.

This is indeed the case.

In his opinion, the very old-fashioned plot, at this moment, has touched the hearts of countless audiences, of course, including Zhao Yan.

Halfway through seeing it, Zhao Yan had already grabbed Fang Xiu's arm, looking very nervous.

Ask Fang Xiu in a low voice from time to time, is this person a bad person or a good person, and whether that person will die or not.

Although Fang Xiu felt a little helpless, he answered them one by one.

Finally, after an hour-long performance, this ancient version of the movie came to an end.

At this moment, Zhao Yan has changed from holding Fang Xiu's arm to holding his arm.

Her eye sockets also turned red, she was moved by some part of the plot.

The curtain was slowly pulled back.

Zhao Yan's eyes were still red.

She was silent for a long time, and said with emotion: "Obviously two people love each other so much, why did it end like this in the end.

If they had been honest with each other from the beginning and explained everything to each other, how could these things happen later, and how could that Duan Lang accidentally hurt his beloved woman in the pain and entanglement.

Fang Xiu, are you right? "

For a long time... no reply.

Zhao Yan turned her head and looked to her side, only to see that Fang Xiu was closing his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Fang Xiu?"

Seeing this scene, she called again softly.

Still no response.

At this moment, she seemed to have understood something, her pretty face suddenly turned dark, she grabbed the arm she was holding, twisted it fiercely, gritted her teeth angrily, and said, "Fang Xiu!"

Chapter 489 The Ins and Outs

"Huh? What?"

Such a voice suddenly sounded in Fang Xiu's ear, and he woke up from his sleep in an instant.

He raised his head suddenly, looked around, and looked at Zhao Yan beside him with a blank expression.

After being stunned for a moment, he remembered that he was still watching a play with her in the Beijing Normal University Theater.

"Fang Xiu!"

When Zhao Yan saw this scene, she became even more angry and called out his name through gritted teeth.

After Fang Xiu heard this, he shivered immediately, and hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't want to watch the drama with you, it's just that this drama is really boring.

I knew what was going to happen after just one glance, and I had no choice but to fall asleep..."

Zhao Yan became even angrier when she heard this, and her pretty face turned red with anger.

She stared at Fang Xiu, and said very displeasedly: "Why do you say that this drama is boring, if you don't say anything else, just talk about the methods of Lord Fu Yin in the drama to solve the case, can you think of it?

If you come across this case, I'm afraid you won't be able to solve it for the rest of your life! "

When Fang Xiu heard this, he was very disdainful in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

Although he has never tried a case, nor has he ever been a police officer.

However, since he was a child, he has read countless suspense novels, and he has never seen any kind of method.

In his opinion, the so-called "strange case" described in "The Strange Case of Kyoto Prefecture" is really a simple case.

It is only necessary to find the motive of committing the crime, and then follow the motive to find other clues, and the truth will naturally surface.

As early as when the plot was just on the right track, he had already guessed the subsequent development of the plot.

In fact, the development of the plot did proceed as he imagined.

It is precisely because of this that watching...he fell asleep.

However, Zhao Yan obviously did not believe this rhetoric.

In her eyes, the reason why Fang Xiu fell asleep was entirely because he didn't take her seriously.

What annoyed him even more was that when watching the drama just now, she would talk about the plot from time to time.

She didn't get a response back then, and she didn't take it to heart, but thinking about it now, Fang Xiu had already fallen asleep at that time.

Seeing Fang Xiu's indifferent appearance, she became even more annoyed, and stood up from her seat abruptly.

Standing in front of Fang Xiu, she stared at him with her beautiful eyes, suppressing her anger, and said, "Recently, there is a case in the capital that has caused a lot of noise. Mrs. Chen in the east of the city disappeared strangely, and later found out that she was murdered. Detectives from Kyoto Prefecture have not yet solved the case.

The Xia Butou you know has been busy for more than half a month and only has a few clues.

If you can solve that case, I will forgive you this time.

otherwise......"

Zhao Yan gritted her teeth, leaned forward, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Otherwise, I will tell Royal Father that you bullied me every day when I was in Fang Mansion!"

Fang Xiu didn't take this matter to heart at first.

The little girl would get angry from time to time, and he gradually got used to it.

But when he heard the second half of the sentence, his eyes widened.

He looked at Zhao Yan in disbelief, pointed at her with one hand, and said angrily, "You, you are slandering me!"

Seeing this expression on his face, Zhao Yan felt a lot more relieved, raised her brows slightly, and said with a smile: "That's right, it's just slander, what can you do with this princess?

Do you think the father believes your words, or my words? "

It doesn't matter who the old emperor believes, as long as Zhao Yan really said so.

Then with the character of the old emperor, he must suffer some hardships.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiu suddenly felt a little speechless.

I just fell asleep accidentally while watching a drama, and I was about to be dragged by her to solve an inexplicable case...

It's really... inexplicable!

"Okay, I promise you!"

After thinking for a moment, Fang Xiu made a decision.

If you don't agree, you will be reported by Zhao Yan immediately.

If you agree, half of them may not be reported.

How to choose, do not think too much.

"What case are you talking about?"

At this moment, the curtain has been completely closed, and the curtain of the window next to it has also been drawn.

The viewing hall of the Jingshi Grand Theater became much brighter.

Fang Xiu picked up a piece of plum cake from the table, took a bite, and asked.

Mrs. Chen's case...

He always felt a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

However, I can't remember the specific content.

Zhao Yan also picked up a piece of plum cake, took a bite, and explained: "Isn't it because of this case that you were arrested by the police from the Kyoto Prefecture?

You don't know anything? "

Fang Xiu was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

Just for a moment, I remembered it.

The reason why I was arrested by the arresting police as a prisoner was because I was the owner of a mansion.

At that time, there seemed to be some crime in that mansion, Xia Yixue mentioned it when chatting with herself later.

It's just that I didn't care at the time.

"do not know."

Thinking of this, Fang Xiu still shook his head and said.

After Zhao Yan heard this, she pursed her lips and explained in great detail: "At that time, a case just happened in the house you bought, which was Madam Chen's case.

Mrs. Chen is the wife of Chen Tong, a member of the examination department of the Ministry of Officials.
