The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Zhou Huilin didn't know what Yun Yanhui was thinking, but seeing them trying to smooth things over, Zhao Yunchu agreed, heaved a sigh of relief, got up from the ground, wanted to find a doctor, but couldn't help looking at Yun Yanhui suspiciously: "You guys Are you really setting up a trap to wait for me? Are you catching me?"

"Do you think you are a bastard?" Hui Chong laughed angrily, "Didn't you want to make trouble yourself?"

Zhou Huilin blushed a little, and said with a moaning voice: "Forget it this time..."

"Wait a minute," Yun Yanhui said suddenly, walked to his side and asked in a low voice, "The person who fought with you last time was called Zheng Ling? Guan Erzheng?"

Zhou Huilin was less aggressive, and glanced at him, "Ask me about your own relatives?"

Now he is even more sure that this person is related to Zheng Ling. If he is really an ordinary commoner, how would he know the prince's son.That's why he inexplicably suspected that Zheng Ling set up the game. He thought it was a coincidence that he was so unlucky when he didn't bring his followers...

With this sentence, you know you are right.Yun Yan shrugged and stepped back.

Zhou Huilin looked at him, exchanged glances with Zhao Yunchu, shrank his head, remembered Zhao Yunchu's appearance, and walked back, thinking that he would decide to find out which clan this was, so that he would know what was behind the incident. There was no sign of Zheng Ling.

After walking back, Yunyan sized up Zhao Yunchu for a while, touched his chin and said, "Junior brother, the sentence you said earlier, 'my surname is Zhao, and you will only be locked up at home for a few years' is so majestic."

Hui Chong took it for granted, "I couldn't hold back anymore, I thought you weren't a junior."

Zhao Yunchu said embarrassingly: "... I heard my brother said it a few times in the past, so I learned it."

Yun Yanhui and Hui Chong: "..."

Sure enough, Zhao Yunchu's stupid and sweet person's design will not collapse!

As for Zhao Yundi, this guy hasn't collapsed, it's just that he's a fool and hasn't run away.

Although there was a little trouble here just now, it was resolved quickly and the traffic was large, so it didn't affect the business. The last few mills and drinks were sold smoothly.

Hui Chong and Yun Yan returned to take Zhao Yundi to visit Wazi according to the agreement. At this time, there happened to be a performance by Zhang Jinxian, a famous puppet artist in Bianjing.Famous entertainers and oirans in this era are just like modern Internet celebrities. Zhang Jinxian’s stick-headed puppets have performed several classic puppet plays.

There are rod puppets, drug hair puppets, hanging silk puppets, water puppets, etc. in Beijing. They are controlled in different ways. Like hanging silk, they are actually called string puppets in later generations. The puppet is empty, supported by a wooden stick, and the person holds the wooden stick to control the puppet's activities. At the same time, it has to sing and recite the opera. The styles of each family are different.

They sat in front of the Goulan of the Zhang Jinxian Puppet Troupe and watched a well-timed "Cowherd and Weaver Girl". Hui Chong and Zhao Yunchu were very fascinated, while Yun Yanhui was more drawn out to appreciate and admire.There are no loudspeakers in this era. In such a big shed, the artists on the stage are full of air, and their voices are high but not harsh, so that everyone in the shed can hear clearly. This requires skill and strength.

Moreover, Yunyan discovered that the design of the stage art was also very careful. When the queen mother used a silver hairpin to draw the Milky Way to separate the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, a black cloth was spread behind the puppet, and the black cloth was dotted with white. Looking down, it looks like a galaxy in the sky, very beautiful.

The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were at the two ends of the Milky Way, and they sang sadly, and the audience immediately gasped in amazement.

The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl cannot stay together across the Milky Way. Only on July [-]th every year, when magpies build a magpie bridge, can they see each other.

Zhao Yunchu's eyes were red, and he hugged Yun Yanhui's arm, "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are so pitiful!"

Although Yun Yanhui admired this puppet show very much, it was an appreciation of the skills. He really couldn't be moved by the story he had heard countless times. He only felt that Zhao Yunchu was really serious...so he went to Hui Chong Lean on me.

Bearing the weight of the two children, Hui Chong touched his bare head, "Junior brother is really soft-hearted, but this is good, to please the little lady."

Zhao Yunchu's eyes were clouded with tears, "What about Brother Yan?"

But he found out that Brother Yan didn't even have any expressions.In fact, Brother Yan’s smiles and tears have always been a little different from everyone else’s. I seldom see him laugh when he listens to jokes, or even Washeli’s jokes. It’s better to make him laugh more when Xiaobao falls. .

Hui Chong said: "Brother Yan wants to please Mr. Wang..."

Zhao Yunchu and Yun Yanhui said in unison: "Why?"

It has to be said that Zhao Yunchu simply asked why, but Yunyan's answer was a little unsophisticated... It's all because Zhao Yundi just appeared!

Hui Chong laughed and said: "I want to have such a son."

Yun Yan replied: "..."

What Hui Chong said was also true, but because Yun Yan wanted to be dirty before, and he was not a real child, so it sounded like a curse, so he was a little depressed.

After watching the puppet show, they played around in the washhouse again. Unknowingly, at the second watch, Hui Chong brought them back to the original place.

Yunyan returned to borrow something to eat, sent Hui Chong away, and said to Zhao Yunchu: "Junior brother, please help me find out a person, his name is Zheng Ling, the person who fought with Zhou Huilin that day, he should also be the son of a certain official." .”

Zhao Yunchu didn't connect Zheng Ling's "Zheng" with Zheng Ping's "Zheng". This was because he had never met Zheng Ling before, and thought that Yun Yanhui was holding grudges against this person, so he agreed immediately. , "I'll ask my dad."

"Thank you." Yun Yan patted him on the shoulder back. If Zhao Yunchu hadn't been there, with the size of Bianliang and the number of officials, he would have spent a lot of effort, and he might not have been able to find out.

After a while, Hui rushed back, and not long after, Zhao Yundi also dragged his legs to make a round.

Zhao Yundi's expression was unfinished, while Hui Chong told him very responsibly that Zhao Yunchu broke a yamen's hand tonight.

Zhao Yundi laughed out loud when he heard this, "It deserves it! I knew Zhou Zhoulang that day. He skipped class as soon as he went to school, and acted violently as soon as he went to the street. What the hell, he dared to bully my Xiaolang. It's cheap for him to discount his arms. I'll pay him back later. If you want to block it again, you must ask him to kneel down and call grandpa."

Hui Chong was speechless. He originally wanted to report to the family's parents. Who knew that Zhao Yundi was the biggest troublemaker. "Your legs look like this, and you still make people kneel down and call you grandpa?"

Zhao Yundi: "What do you know, it is because my leg is broken, how dare he disobey me?"

other people:"……"

Yun Yanhui actually quite appreciates Zhao Yundi's idea of ​​touching porcelain. If he was in Zhao Yundi's position, he might use this method, but unfortunately, he doesn't have that background.

Therefore, after the Zhao family brothers left, Yun Yanhui did not go back immediately, but talked to Hui Chong, and went to find an artist in the house.

As the promoter of the new branch of the entire Bianliang talking business, Yun Yanhui made friends with many talking artists, including Zhang Shanren, the leader of this joke artist.

Zhang Shanren was originally from Shandong, and he made a living by telling jokes when he was in his hometown. As I introduced before, current events are often used in jokes to insinuate those officials and dignitaries. Zhang Shanren was in his hometown because he used their local The corrupt officials ridiculed and were so suppressed that they fled to Beijing.

It is gold that shines everywhere. In just three or four years after entering Beijing, Zhang Shanren not only gained a firm foothold in Tokyo, but also made a name for himself, becoming the number one comedian among comedians.He is very good at interspersing satirical poems with seventeen characters in five characters and three sentences in his works. Because they are easy to understand and interesting, they have become the highlights and characteristics of his works.

Moreover, Zhang Shanren was also one of the few talking artists who did not unite to demand a boycott of monks from Daxiangguo Temple.So Yun Yanhui has a good impression of him, and the two have been in contact with each other a few times, and they hit it off right away, and they talked lightly and deeply.

Zhang Shanren also has a performance tonight. He was the last one to come on stage. He just finished his performance and is still backstage.This well-known Washer artist is only in his thirties now, but he has gone through many trials and hardships and behaves extremely maturely.

After Yunyan showed up, she was invited in by someone she knew, and she saw that Zhang Shanren was having a midnight snack served by several disciples.

At this time, because of the rich nightlife, many people have the habit of eating late at night, especially for artists who have performances at night.

Seeing Yunyan coming back, Zhang Shanren put down his midnight snack and greeted him, "Brother."

Zhang Shanren's disciples, ranging in age from thirty to forty to as young as thirteen or fourteen, also bowed and stood up one after another, and called out respectfully to Yunyan: "Uncle."

Yun Yan replied: "..."

Although this is not the first time he has been treated like this, he still avoids it unnaturally...
