Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

Seeing that Ping An was in a daze, Xu Wenmei thought of teasing him again, "You better not inquire about my past affairs. You knelt too fast when you were apprenticed, and I didn't have time to tell you. In fact, I was in the palace. There are many enemies. You have to be more careful in the future, don't run around by yourself, so as not to be beaten with a sap."

Hearing this, Ping An's face froze, "Master, I'm timid, so don't scare me!"

Xu Wenmei's understatement made Ping An even more terrified, "Otherwise, why would I condescend to live in this small courtyard?"

"Master, tell the truth, who is your enemy? I will definitely go around when I see you in the future!" Ping An grabbed Xu Wenmei's hand and stared at him seriously.

Xu Wenmei shook off his hand and snorted, "I'm just kidding you. Get out of here. If you don't leave, do you still want to stay?"

He had never tried the Shaojian's regular dishes, and Ping An was quite tempted.It's a pity that even if he made a gesture of turning his head three times, Xu Wenmei still pretended that he didn't see it.

Seeing Xu Wenmei and even worshiping as a teacher, Ping An had to report to Eunuch Ma.After all, this result should have been beyond Eunuch Ma's expectations, and it would be bad if he thought he had a new backer and ignored him.

Of course, the most important thing is that after failing to get a meal with Xu Wenmei, Ping An plans to go to Eunuch Ma's. ——The food of the chief eunuch of the Bell and Drum Division is much better than that of the young eunuch.

He picked the timing just right, eunuch Ma's dinner had just been delivered, and he hadn't started to move his chopsticks yet.Seeing Ping An, he asked, "You just came out there? Have you used anything? If not, just use a little here."

Ping An sat down unceremoniously.

The rules in the palace are not talking when eating or sleeping.After finishing the meal and making tea again, Ping An briefly told Eunuch Ma what happened today.

Eunuch Ma was really surprised, "I didn't expect you to have such a good fortune. I saw it right that day, you are a lucky one. Since he is willing to teach, you should learn it with your heart. You will benefit endlessly in the future."

"But he asked me to learn how to sing from you first, saying that only after learning how to sing can I write a good play." Eunuch Ma was born as an art officer, so it doesn't take much to teach Ping An.

Eunuch Ma was slightly taken aback, and then praised, "As expected, Xu Wenmei! Since he said so, you will start working hard with me from tomorrow. Just don't complain when the time comes."

"Absolutely not, no matter how hard it is, it's probably better than staying with Master." Ping An said with a bitter face, "Eunuch Ma, you don't know, I've been running errands for Master all day today, and my calves are still shaking. It's hard to say whether you can walk tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, after eunuch Ma asked him carefully about the process of running errands, he said enviously, "You brat, don't know the blessings when you are in the blessings. I don't know how many people begged to run errands for Xu Shaojian. If he agrees, I will I wish I could go there myself.”

"Is it that exaggerated?" Ping An didn't believe it.

Eunuch Ma couldn't help sighing, "Although our Zhonggu Division is one of the 24 yamen, we are not without status in the palace, but even I don't have much contact with people from other places." Although the relationship is intricate, there are still some taboos on everyone's face.

If there is a place like the Supervisor of Rites and the Supervisor of the Horse that can carefully serve the emperor every day, it will not have any contact with other yamen.Even if you want to flatter, you can't find a way.

But Xu Wenmei asked Ping An to run errands for him, but she went to every yamen.This is actually tantamount to introducing all of his contacts to Ping An, and then introducing Ping An to people in various yamen.Although it is not obvious today, it will be much easier if Ping An wants to do things in the future.

Everyone holds such a network of resources in their own hands, and those who can be passed on are either apprentices or adopted sons.It can be seen that although Xu Wenmei accepts apprentices at will, she attaches great importance to Ping An as an apprentice in her heart.Otherwise, they wouldn't have expanded his contacts on the first day.

However, Ping An didn't realize the benefits at all, and even complained.

After listening to Eunuch Ma's explanation, Ping An realized that a big pie fell on his head.While he was happy, he inevitably felt a little apprehensive.Ping An has never thought of himself as the main character, and it is unreasonable for such good luck to come to him so easily.

He also remembered that Xu Wenmei said that he had many enemies in the palace.

At that time, Xu Wenmei quickly denied it, saying that he was joking.But Ping An thought about it afterwards, but felt that it should not be the same.There may not be many enemies, but there must be one or two.And the identity of that enemy must be so prominent that even a capable person like Xu Wenmei has to hide in seclusion to avoid the edge.But now, as he became his apprentice, he became a ready target.

Sure enough, purely good things don't happen to me, and Ping An doesn't know whether to be happy or depressed.

But those things are still far away from peace now.After all, it would be demeaning to make things difficult for such an unknown person as Ping An.So Ping An put this matter on hold for the time being, and devoted himself to learning and singing with Eunuch Ma.

Fortunately, although he didn't practice since he was a child, he is still young now, and he doesn't need to sing enough to be able to perform on stage. He only needs to learn a little bit, so Ping An can barely handle it.

And in the process of studying, he also made fine revisions to his first work at the same time, carefully considering the words and sentences, and scrutinizing the rhyme. Sure enough, he discovered many mistakes and inconvenient singing points that he hadn't noticed before.

By the time Ping An was able to sing a whole volume of the most popular operas nowadays, the modification of "Golden Jade Lovely Marriage" was coming to an end.This time, even Eunuch Ma was amazed when he saw it, thinking that it could be directly used for rehearsal without any further changes.

But Ping An still asked Xu Wenmei for advice.Sure enough, under Xu Wenmei's disgusted gaze and merciless tongue, several places were revised before the final draft was finalized.

Coincidentally, ten days later is the Qixi Festival. Eunuch Ma got the final draft and immediately decided to ask people to rehearse it. It would be best to catch up with the Qixi Festival so that the Queen Mother could listen to the new play. ——Because the Empress Dowager usually has to sing other plays on such days, so she can sing at most one or two percent of the time, but there is not enough time.At that time, if the Queen Mother likes it, she can rehearse the whole script.
