Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Mrs. Qin and cousin Liu stayed in their hometown longer than Cui Xie had estimated, and only returned to Beijing in November. When he returned, he pulled two large cars from his hometown. The cars were full of mahogany carved furniture, which was similar in style to those in his bedroom. Although it is the craftsmanship of Beizhili, it is not as precious and luxurious as the wood from the south, but because it has been improved based on the modern styles designed by him, it is extremely comfortable to use.

They drew the car into Xie's yard, and Mrs. Qin asked someone to move the house into his room and throw out the furniture made of elm and willow wood.

Cui Xie hurriedly said: "My family is not without the money to change the furniture. How can I make my aunt so expensive? This kind of furniture is very comfortable, not only in Yongping Mansion, but also in Jingli nowadays. Take a set of furniture home, and ask relatives and friends in Yulin Town to take a look at the fashion in Beijing."

Mrs. Qin said distressedly: "I haven't been to your room for a long time, so how can I wait until today to change it for you? Brother Shou has a big heart and can throw everything behind his head. If it weren't for him in my mother's house With this kind of household stuff, when I think of it, you also use this kind of stuff here, but it's inferior wood. I still don't know you are suffering so much..."

In order to make the house of that crafting father look good, he used such broken furniture that was inferior in the guest room. This kid is too stupid!

She forced someone to carry the furniture into the vacant penthouse. Cui Xie couldn't help her kindness, so she had to pack up her paintings and calligraphy and put them in Cui Qi's room first, staring at the people to change the furniture.

As soon as the mahogany furniture entered the room, the room suddenly became more expensive. Mrs. Qin also gave him a sauce-colored turquoise paper screen and placed it on the wall, saying that it was fashionable for the literati in the south. The snow-white wall looked bare, not in the style of a scribe.

Although Cui Xie's decoration style is more habitually cold and windy, he is not obsessed, and it feels good to see the room that Mrs. Qin cleaned up. It's just that there are too many dark things in the room, and the fabrics are too gorgeous. After two days when his aunt is gone, he will have to replace the bedding and chair covers with plain colors.

Cousin Liu looked at the newly furnished house, and nodded old-fashionedly: "This is so decent. The cousin's house was so clean before that I found it inappropriate."

Aunt Qin and Cui Xie both laughed when he heard his children say adult words.

Choi Xie took the opportunity to take out the newly made clothes, compared them to him, and said with a smile: "Cousin thinks of me, and I think of you too. These clothes are the most fashionable new look in Jingli, no one else If you wear it, you can try it."

The clothes were slightly generous because they were winter clothes. The inside is a white lantern-patterned jacquard fabric that is straight. In order to look thin, the sides of the clothes are widened, and the waistline is still raised slightly, and a palm-wide green satin belt is used to tie the contour of the figure. On the outside is a large cloak of the same color, covered with a layer of red tulle, and the hem of the dress is fluttering, which is obviously light and elegant, not as bloated as ordinary winter clothes.

When Liu Yunshou put on the clothes, Mrs. Qin was bright in front of her eyes and praised: "Well, your children should wear some bright clothes. There are red ones on the outside, and the white ones on the inside are not too plain. !"

Cui Xie still has a bag of various colors of gauze in his hand. He opened it and showed them: "The gauze on the outside is a smock, and you can change it to another color. I know my cousin loves white, but this winter, There was thick snow everywhere outside, and it was not good to wear white alone, so I asked the tailor to get a few more sets of gauze gowns."

He opened up a gauze, pointed to the buttonholes on his shoulders, underarms, placket, and back, and said, "What color you want to wear, you can change it yourself. There are buttons on the cloak. Before putting on the clothes, Buckle it first, so you won’t be afraid it won’t fit."

Cousin Liu didn't really love the red smock before, so he planned to wear deep clothes only when he went back. When he heard that the smock can be worn and taken off, he was so happy that he fumbled all over, unbuttoned and replaced with white. He walked a few steps by himself, watching the hem of his shirt flip, and said happily: "My cousin is really nice, I thought you forgot that I want to be white, dare to change the outer clothes...I will change one day later. The overalls, make all those boys envy!"

Mrs. Qin also took a close look at the gauze, and sighed: "The tailor in Jingli is really ingenious. I don't take a needle here, but simply dig a buttonhole and nail the button on the cloak. It saves trouble and does not punch the eye. Even if you don’t look closely, it looks like a complete dress."

In fact, Cui Xie originally wanted to make a one-piece style, but the tailor ran over to tell him that the color was too plain, and he was dressed in white like a poor man without an official. And the white gauze is matched with white silk, the color is the same, but the clothes are not compliant, and the gauze is worn suddenly. From a closer look, I know that it is a light dress with yarn, but from a distance it looks thick and not romantic.

Choi Xie has always liked to listen to the opinions of professionals, and if his clothes are changed, too. Helpless cousin himself loves white, but I am afraid that he doesn't like it when I change it, so I have to compromise and change it to a removable two-piece exterior.

The upper part of the gauze is fastened tightly on the crane cloak with buttons, but the lower part is separated. As soon as the tulle fluttered with the wind, the clothes inside were thick and dangling. It was seen that there were two layers of clothes, which seemed much lighter.

Liu Yunshou ran outside the house by himself, feeling the pleasure of being able to dress neatly and elegantly in this winter. Mrs. Qin took Cui Xie's hand in the room, and said with emotion, "You child is too careful. If you change your cousin, you can't think of this."

Ordinary people, it is enough for a man to just take care of the outside affairs. This child is so young that he has to take care of even a little thing like making clothes, which is really too hard.

Before she could say anything, she felt her throat choked, touched Cui Xie’s hair, looked at him distressedly, and then said for a while, "You are so afraid and delay your studies? There must be something at home-if you can trust your aunt, I will replace it. You are looking for a marriage. Although the family is permanently stationed at the border, they are from Beijing with a foundation of noble origin. The daughter is both talented and good-looking, and has a good temperament."

She wanted to beg this daughter-in-law for her son, but now looking at the situation of the Cui family, she feels that Cui Xie needs a grandmother who can help him support the door.

Cui Xie quickly got up and declined: "I don't lie to my aunt. Although my family's situation is not too bad, it can't be as high as the daughter of the Gonghou Mansion. Besides, my father's new letter has also vaguely revealed his intention to marry again. , I can’t fight with my father to get a wife, can I? I think this matter has to wait until the stepmother enters the door, and the parents decide..."

You're all this old, you just divorced your wife and want to marry again?

Mrs. Qin almost made the matter disgusting, her face turned pale and pale, and she patted his shoulder and said, "Good boy, you don't have to wait for him to decide this matter, I'll do it for you--"

Cui Xie held her hand and seriously refused: "My aunt's kindness, I know it well. It's just that filial piety is the foundation of my life. I can't delay my father's affairs for myself. My aunt doesn't need to worry about me. Just about to concentrate on studying, I am afraid that after getting a wife, I will be distracted by love and delay my career."

Mrs. Qin was afraid that it would be too hard for him to support this family on his own, and he was also afraid that he would indulge in the gentle village after he married, which would really affect his future. After thinking for a while, he finally sighed: "Let's do it for now. My aunt will keep an eye on the right girl for you. After two years, you will get married and you will get married. Just say, our Liu family will marry you back."

With this concern, she returned to Yulin with all kinds of special products from Jingli and a crazy Liu Yunshou, while Cui Xie took the letter from Cui Senyi to visit her younger brother.

These forty boards were played much lighter than Cui Senyi's time, and Cui Heng's body was better than Cui Xie, and he was able to get off the ground in just a few days.

Seeing Cui Xie coming in, he instinctively flinched first, and then remembered that Cui Xie saw his unsaved vengeance when he was beaten. He drew back to the bed and looked at him with eyes, and said gloomily: "You see if I am dead. You don’t have to pretend to be a good person anymore, are you particularly happy when I am beating me? Your Liu family has come to support you, and my grandma doesn’t want me anymore. I will be an orphan to rub you in the future..."

The child's mouth made people want to hit him.

Cui Xie said coldly: "A son without a father is called an orphan. Although your mother was ruled out of her father's righteousness by the government, your surname is Cui. This Cui Mansion is your family. The Xu family has nothing to do with you. Where have you learned the etiquette over the years!"

He glanced back, and a long-suffering man came up immediately and asked: "Can you take the board if you want the smaller one?"

Cui Xie watched Cui Heng leaning on the bed. He wanted to sit but didn't dare to sit. He grinned, with a look of fear and hatred in his eyes, and shook his head slightly: "He is not in good health, so I have the right to write down this fight. You go. Find Xiao Songyan to bring my "Three Ceremonies" and look back at your second brother to recite a hundred words a day, and stay silent at night. If you can't stay silent..."

He looked at Cui Heng's eyes gradually filled with horror, his entire face was distorted, and he felt pity for him a little bit. He felt that cursing Cui Senye to die is not worthy of heavy punishment, so he said: "If you are not right, let him carry the lamp at night. , When is the correct time to go to bed."

A hundred words a day is not too much. Cui Heng has memorized "Imperial Daguo" and "Daming Law", and he can still memorize the "Three Ceremonies".

But the difficulty and length of Sanli and the two books are not on the same level-that is something that Cui Xie doesn't want to learn, Cui Hengguang wanted to kill him. He grabbed the bed, raised his eyes and stared at Cui Xie and said, "You are deliberately hurting me. You want to keep me in this room forever and not let me go out! Dad wouldn't let you be like this at home!"

Choi Xie smiled amicably, flattened Choi's family letter and put it in his hand, pointing to the few lines at the end of Choi's asking him to take care of the family affairs, and said: "Although my father is not at home, his heart is always It's all here, he knew I could take care of you, and he wrote a letter specifically asking me to let go of housekeeping."

"Impossible! Daddy looks down on you the most. He said several times that you are useless. It's better to look like him. He doesn't love you at all. How could you tell me to control me!" Cui Heng saw those few Words, my hands trembled, my face turned blue, my fingertips dig into the paper hard, as if to tear the letter apart.

Cui Xie was afraid that the bear boy would pull the letter, so he broke his finger and grabbed it back. He sneered and shook his head: "My master is dissatisfied with twenty years old. Your brother and I will become the head of the three yuan case at sixteen. This is called Don't shame your father. You can't even memorize a Zhou ceremony when you are fourteen. What are you?"

He accepted the letter slowly, and smiled at Cui Heng: "Don't worry, if Dad is not at home, my brother will teach you well. I will ensure that you will be familiar with "Ritual", "Yi", "Poetry" and "Book" in two years. Know how to stand in the world."

Cui Hengrao was immersed in the pain of being abandoned by his father. Listening to the books in his words, thinking of the thickness of the books, he still couldn't help shivering and shrank in fear.

=====================

He sent Liu’s aunt and cousin back to his hometown for two days. There was also news from Gaofu: The high **** snatched a Lantern Festival drama from Jiaofang Division, called "All the Sacred Lantern Festival", which has been taken in Rehearsed by Zhonggu Division.

Gao Su touched Hei and came to the door in person, and handed the courtyard book to Cui Xie, asking him to be careful, to make his ideas more detailed, and to suppress Jiaofang Sijin's new play.

The school book is only a thin book. The first half is a fold of opera lyrics. It is sung in Xianlu tune, and it starts with a little crimson lips. The second half of the book contains detailed descriptions of which characters will appear in each fold and when they appear. Dress up. Not only the clothes, but also beards, hairstyles, holdings, and waist ornaments are all well-regulated. It has been performed like this for years, and the royal family also has regulations. It is not possible to change makeup according to the portraits in the book as he did when he started the Three Kingdoms Exhibition.

Seeing that he was looking seriously, Gao Su frowned slightly, and he was a little nervous, so he asked him in a low voice, "Will it be possible? If it doesn't work, I would still light incense and hang curtains? But I changed the show for people the other day. I was afraid of teaching workshops. The Secretary learned from me!"

Cui Xie shook his head: "That's not afraid, we can still create new ideas and beat them. I'm just afraid that there is not enough time to get out."

Gao Su said: "You just have to think of a way. The royal family has thousands of craftsmen, and you are afraid that he won't be able to do it then?"

In fact, before Gao Su came, Cui Xie thought about a lot of lighting and background ideas. Even Wei Ya had thought about it, but he didn't dare to raise them because of danger in the palace. Now, looking at the script of the new drama, it is enough to make the background targeted.

He read the yard book once and engraved it into a clear PDF in his mind, and then returned the yard book to Gao Su, smiling and saying, "I shouldn't or won't keep these things in the inner courtyard. Adults just bring them. When I go back, I will ask someone to rehearse a new play. I have also discussed it with experienced craftsmen in the past two days. Within half a month, I will be able to deliver the stage setting techniques and new makeup to the adults."

While Gao Su was nervous, he didn't sigh: "Your mind is so amazing, you won't forget it after watching it? I have heard so many times and I still can't sing the Three Kingdoms opera."

In fact, he can't sing either.

Cui Xie remembered the song that he had listened to outside the Guandi Temple together before Xie Ying had officially confirmed his relationship. Xie Ying sang it in his ear so many times. Didn't he sing out of tune like sitting on a rocket?

He couldn't help smiling when he thought about it. Gao Su thought he was laughing at himself, waved his hands and said, "You scholar is really unkind, why are you making fun of people?"

Cui Xie then remembered that there were some people in front of him. He quickly reduced his smile and explained: "I'm not a joke, but I just feel that the adults are kind, and I don't know how to sing. Can't remember the words, the tunes can still be sung in tune."

He said so heart-and-heartedly, Gao Su's mood suddenly improved, and he looked at him up and down, grinning and saying: "I wonder if you, a child prodigy, can't do anything? I really treat you as a reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming. , I dare not speak loudly to you. It turns out that our brothers have the same problem."

Cui Xie laughed and said: "Even Zhuge Kongming may not be able to sing. I only heard that he made "The Book of the Master", but I didn't hear what he sang "The Book of the Master."

Gao Su told him to make him amused, and clapped his thighs, and said, "Cui Jiansheng, you are such a wonderful person. I would not come to you to set up the stage and ask you to write a playbook for my father. You literati write more than Jiaofang. Are those old dramas that have been instigated by the Secretary?"

No... literati are not necessarily strong, it depends on the aesthetic taste.

Cui Xie thought about what his cousin said to him when he came back from watching the show. The audience in the theater watching "Journey to the West" and "Three Kingdoms" sat in full, and they performed the "Wu Lun Complete Ji" adapted from "Pipa" by Master Qiu. At that time, few people saw the tragic contrast, and shook his head with emotion.

"Wollen's Complete Notes" is well known by the author, and it is adapted from a big IP, and the box office is so tragic. Their "All Sacred Lantern Festival" has neither connotation nor artistry, and it really has to rely on special effects to make a good performance.
