Chapter 77 A good show

It was almost noon, when Jiang Nian stepped into Ning Yuezhao's bedroom, he saw two women sitting cross-legged on the kang, talking happily.

"See the imperial husband." Seeing Jiang Nian's figure, Qingchi obediently got off the couch and saluted.

Jiang Nian raised his hand and said, "Stay flat."

Qingchi stood up straight, but he didn't dare to sit back on the couch.

Jiang Nian graciously took the seat where Qingchi had been before, and asked the maid to move another seat for her.

"Your Highness, I heard that you are going out of the palace with His Majesty this afternoon?" Qingchi said suddenly.

Jiang Nian looked at her and nodded, "Yes."

Qingchi looked at him expectantly, "Can you take me with you?"

Jiang Nian touched his chin, as if hesitating.

Qingchi said again: "Your Highness, this time I entered the palace to come back to serve His Majesty, and I will live in the palace forever, so you can take me out. I was studying at home before, and I never went out for a stroll."

Ning Yuezhao also helped to persuade: "We also took Qingchi with us when we went out before, let's take her with us this time as well."

Jiang Nian looked at her sideways, "You have already spoken, so I naturally have no objections."

Hearing that Jiang Nian agreed, Qingchi couldn't help cheering.

After lunch, Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao changed into their folk couple attire.

Ning Yuezhao changed into a big red embroidered magnolia flower half-arm skirt, a light gold long-sleeved shirt, and a pair of red orchid embroidered shoes.Qingchi tied a simple fairy-looking bun for her, and on the hairpin was a magnolia with ruby ​​cores and white jade petals.

When she came out after changing her clothes, Jiang Nian stared at her almost intently.I don't know whether it was intentional or not, Jiang Nian chose a vermilion long robe with a straight train and a golden crown to tie his hair.He himself had a natural air of luxury, and the vermilion robes on his body did not violate harmony at all, on the contrary, it showed a noble demeanor that was different from his usual gentle image.

"Is your highness afraid that others will not see that you and your majesty are husband and wife?" Qingchi joked.

In terms of clothing color and attire, the two are indeed right.

Jiang Nian didn't care about Qingchi's ridicule. He naturally took Ning Yuezhao's shoulders and said with a smile, "Let's go."

In today's imperial capital, there are especially many women coming and going on the streets.

In the past, because of the Qiu Wei of the Women's Jinshi Division, there were very few women on the street.

Now that the autumn is over, everyone can go out for a walk and relax.

Ning Yuezhao originally wanted to continue going to Tingfeng Tea House, but Jiang Nian stopped him, "The Zhou Yihu has not returned yet, and the storyteller is not as good as him now, so it would be boring to go."

"Have you asked about it?" Ning Yuezhao looked at him in surprise.

Jiang Nian smiled mysteriously, "Let's go to Man Ting Fang to listen to an opera today."

The number of times Ning Yuezhao went out of the palace was limited, except for going to Tingfeng Tea House, she had no concept of other places at all.She still remembered that Jiang Nian had mentioned this theater named Man Ting Fang when she left the palace for the first time, and it seemed that there was a famous Hua Dan in the house, because it had been a long time and she couldn't remember clearly, so Asked Jiang Nian, "Then today we are going to see that Hua Dan who sings Farewell My Concubine so well?"

Jiang Nian shook his head, "Du Fangfei, a famous actress of a generation, has already married, and Farewell My Concubine has become a swan song."

Ning Yuezhao felt a little pity, she hadn't heard of it yet.The world is really impermanent, how long does it take...

Seeing her loss, Jiang Nian said again: "You don't have to be disappointed. A month ago, Man Tingfang had a new Huadan, but she sang a new drama, which was written by Man Tingfang's boss with a lot of money. Excerpts are very popular in the imperial capital recently, and there is only one show a day, so it’s hard to find one!”

Ning Yuezhao became interested, and asked, "Then what are you playing today?"

Jiang Nian deliberately kept it secret, "You will know in a while."

Man Ting Fang is the largest theater in the imperial capital, because it coincides with the end of the women's jinshi division, so there are also a lot of young women who go to the theater today.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the theater building, Jiang Nian lifted the curtain first and got out of the carriage, followed by Ning Yuezhao and Qingchi.

Ning Yuezhao took a look at this small building with three entrances, and the words "Man Ting Fang" on the plaque were mentioned in a flying style.

There was a bustling crowd of people waiting to enter at the door, Jiang Nian took Ning Yuezhao's shoulders in his hand, protecting her from being pushed and shoved by the crowd.

Qingchi glanced resentfully at the two people in front, before Ning Yue Zhaoruo walked with Jiang Nian, she would walk side by side with Yan Mo.But now Yan Mo was "driven" out of the palace by Jiang Nian, and replaced with a eunuch as a close guard.At this moment, the eunuch named Yuan Xi had been following the two of them, and Qingchi was alone, so he couldn't help but feel a little resentful.

Complaints are nothing but complaints, Qingchi quickly followed their pace under the reminder of the guards.

Jing Ming had already arranged everything first, and as soon as they entered the building, Ning Yuezhao and the others were greeted directly into the upper guest room.

Their private room is on the second floor, facing the stage in the atrium on the first floor, which is the best viewing angle.

There are four private seats in the private room, and Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao are sitting next to each other.

There was a playbook on the table, and Ning Yuezhao picked it up and looked through it, "Female son-in-law? What kind of novel play is this?"

The story of the female son-in-law is well-known, and Ning Yuezhao has read it a long time ago.

Qingchi moved her head curiously to look at it together, she was sitting next to Ning Yuezhao on the other side of the seat.

"Well, I don't think so, it seems different, look at this first discount..."

"Avenging my brother's grievances, an orphan girl disguised herself as a man and went to Beijing, and won the first prize in the exam in the name of her elder brother. Unexpectedly, the king's golden palace pointed out her marriage and made her a son-in-law..." Ning Yuezhao smiled, "It's kind of interesting."

"I can't wait to watch it!" Qingchi said with a smile, and kept looking up at the stage.

Jiang Nian held the teacup in his hand, stroked the edge of the cup with his fingers, and looked at the chattering discussion between the two with a smile on his side.

At this moment, a dissatisfied female voice came from outside the private room, "We have always sat in this private room, how could you give it to someone else without saying a word? Tell your boss to come see me!"

The arrogance in this female voice was full of arrogance, and Ning Yuezhao sounded familiar.

The boy in the theatrical building was also very embarrassed, "Girl, although you come here often, you haven't booked this private room for a long time! Now that there are distinguished guests in it, please invite a few people to drive next door. The view is also excellent.”

"Heh, it's a great honor for you, Miss Xu, to come to your theater. If she is willing to come, you should of course offer her a seat, why bother to book a private room."

This is a bit unreasonable.

However, the words "Miss Xu" reminded Ning Yuezhao that the person who spoke was Xu Miaoyun's female companion Wu Yuyuan?
"What's the matter?" Seeing Ning Yuezhao's expression changed, Jiang Nian asked. He also felt some noise outside the door, and signaled Jing Ming to go out and deal with it.

"Slow down." Ning Yuezhao stopped Jing Ming and said to Jiang Nian, "The person outside is Xu Miaoyun. I had some friendship with her when I was out of the palace. Why don't you invite her in?"

Jiang Nian took a deep look at her, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's going on? Tell me first."

He knew that Ning Yuezhao had been out of the palace when he was not in the imperial capital, and her headache only occurred after she was out of the palace.Because there were too many things to do after returning, Jiang Nian didn't bother to ask her about the last time she went out of the palace. He didn't expect to run into Xu Miaoyun.

Ning Yuezhao didn't hide anything, and simply told about the two meetings.

Of course, the quarrel outside was still going on, basically it was Wu Yuyuan's voice, Liu Ying would interject a few words from time to time, and Xu Miaoyun never spoke from the beginning to the end.

After Jiang Nian listened, he said, "The hypocrites who are trying to catch fame say that the Xu family's talented women are famous all over the world. I think that guy Xu Zhi probably made more than half of them out. Jing Ming, go out and drive them away." Walk!"

Ning Yuezhao frowned slightly, "Isn't this bad? I think this private room is quite big, and if we add two more seats, we can let them in."

Jiang Nian was very disgusted and said: "This is a bad person, just look at the virtues of her female companion, dragging two even more bad things all day long to walk around the street as gunmen, to highlight Her generosity and politeness are very hypocritical."

Ning Yuezhao thought about the previous two meetings, the first time was just fine, the second time Xu Miaoyun clearly knew her identity, and pretended to be ignorant to cater to her, it was indeed not calm enough.But she herself also concealed her identity at that time, no wonder Xu Miaoyun.

As for Xu Miaoyun's female companion, Ning Yuezhao didn't know how to evaluate it.It is said that there are many noble girls in the imperial capital, so is it true that Xu Miaoyun can't find a handkerchief of comparable family background and can't hand it over?Or maybe she was just like what Jiang Nian said.

Hearing the relentless arguing outside the door, Xiao Er's constant companionship could not make them calm down.

Ning Yuezhao also felt disgusted, and waved Jing Ming to go quickly.

Jing Ming quickly opened the door of the private room, and closed the door behind his back after walking out, but he heard him say loudly: "Girls, my master has already taken his seat here, so don't hold back any longer, so as not to lose your identity." !"

Ning Yuezhao in the private room burst into a "puchi" laugh when she heard it, this well-spoken tongue was really on par with Jiang Nian.

When had Wu Yuyuan been reprimanded so unceremoniously before, she said angrily, "Which family are you a slave to, how dare you talk to me like that."

Since Jing Ming entered the palace with Jiang Nian, no one disrespected him when he walked around. Over the years, Jing Ming has been affected for many years. Although he is not arrogant, he is not a person who can be humiliated at will.

He glanced at Wu Yuyuan, looked past her at Xu Miaoyun, cupped his hands and said, "This is Miss Xu, right?"

Before Xu Miaoyun could answer, Wu Yuyuan spat: "What are you, you dare to talk to our big girl."

Xu Miaoyun raised her hand to signal Wu Yuyuan to be quiet, and said with a smile, "I'm Xu Miaoyun."

Jing Ming sneered and said: "As the saying goes, things gather like like people and people are divided into groups. Miss Xu is walking in the imperial capital. When making friends, you might as well keep your eyes open, so as not to fall into your own. Also, this private room has not been set by you, my son This private room was reserved yesterday, are you standing at the door and making noise like this, are you really aboveboard?"

Xu Miaoyun bowed slightly, "Mrs. Jiang, Miaoyun didn't know that you were in this private room, and my sister was innocent just now. If you offend me, please return Haihan!"
