[Skill "Literature" breaks through Lv5, please choose passive skills! 】

Su Ze's eyes flashed, and three blue options appeared.

Three blue.

If they had seen three blue skills before, Su and Zhejiang would still feel lucky.

But after seeing one gold and one purple last time, the three blue passives could no longer surprise Su Ze.

Sure enough, after you get lucky once in the krypton gold game, you will no longer be able to experience the joy of drawing cards.

Turning over these three passive skills, I only see that these three skills are:

[Blue Passive - Wine Poetic Immortal: After drinking, the "Literature" skill in the poetry direction +2. 】

[Blue Passive - A Lifelong Work: When writing a book, the "Literature" skill in the prose direction +2]

[Blue Passive - Quyuan Leaves a Voice: When arranging a drama, the "Literature" skill in the direction of Quyi +2]

This time, Su Ze did not hesitate. For the sake of the second angel investor, he directly chose the third passive skill "Quyuan Leaves a Sound".

[Passive skills have been selected, and there is 1 free point left. Do you want to add more points? 】

"Yes, plus intelligence."

There was another thought storm. When Su Ze came back to his senses, he only saw that the attribute panel had changed to:

Su Ze, male, 25 years old.

Intelligence: 9

Strength: 9

Agility: 4

Charisma: 6

Both intelligence and strength reached 9 points. This time, Su Ze felt that his head was clearer and his thinking was more agile.

Picking up the pen again, Su Ze began to feel the literary skills of Level 5.

Sure enough, after reaching Level 5, Su Ze had many more novels in his mind.

Among them were some famous works from textbooks, as well as some famous works by famous writers that Su Ze had read in college, all of which now clearly appeared in his mind.

By the way, drama!

Su Ze once again began to search for works related to folk art in his mind, and as expected, he found more content than other categories!

This should be the effect of +2 literary skills in folk arts after choosing passive!

Su Ze searched the memory in his mind, and sure enough, the article he wanted appeared!

"The Peony Pavilion"!

This is a masterpiece by the famous playwright Tang Xianzu during the Wanli period. It is also the most famous play in modern Kun Opera. It can be said to be the masterpiece of Kun Opera!

However, the entire "Peony Pavilion" contains 50 excerpts, and it would be impossible to teach all of them to the theater troupe, so Su Ze decided to select the most famous excerpts from it and rehearse them for Yu Fu's theater troupe.

An excerpt is a section of a whole play, that is, one of the excerpts.

If it can become an excerpt on its own, it is naturally the essence of the entire drama. For example, the most famous section of "The Peony Pavilion", "A Dream in the Garden," is the most famous excerpt in Kun Opera.

Su Ze picked up the pen and wrote out the excerpts of "A Dream in the Garden", then called Yu Ji from the Yu Family Theater Troupe and handed him the script of "A Dream in the Garden".

Yu Ji was also a good judge of things. After reading the still-dry ink on the playbook of A Dream in the Garden, he asked in a respectful tone:

"May I ask Mr. Su, is this dream in the garden your new work?"

Su Ze nodded and said, "It's my new play."

Yu Ji asked again: "Sir, this seems to be one of the twists in the whole play. Do you know the other twists?"

Other discounts? Su Ze is also planning to publish the other forty-nine-fold dramas in "The Surprise" to keep the word count high, but it won't be enough to fill up the space.

He said casually: "Other stories will naturally be published slowly in "The Surprise". You lead the troupe to rehearse this play first, and use it to celebrate the birthday of the conductor's wife."

Yu Ji quickly and respectfully stepped back, thinking that he must buy all the next "Surprise" films.

Even though he is an actor, he can also tell the quality of a play. This "A Dream in the Garden" is the best play Yu Ji has ever seen!

This shows what kind of height the whole drama will be!

Yu Ji vaguely thought that if he could learn this play well and master it, he might be able to become a famous actor through this play in the future!

Although he is a domestic opera actor, Yu Ji also has some artistic pursuits, and if the domestic opera troupe becomes famous, the owner's family will also increase the salary. After all, singing is a thing that cannot be performed well if forced with a knife.

Yu Ji concentrated more on staying in Changningwei, rehearsing operas during the day and singing operas in Changningwei in the evening. Before he knew it, it was July 10th.

On this day, the Japanese magistrate returned to the back house with a very ugly face.

When Fang Ruolan saw her father's expression was not good, she quickly dismissed the maid and boy who was serving her, and asked while serving her father:

"Father, is there anything troublesome about the Yamen?"

Fang Zhifu brought herbal tea and said, "Everything is going well in the Yamen."

It seems that if you are not angry with the Yamen, then you are angry with your mother?

"But mother gave it to you?"

"Your mother has been busy with the folk arts club these days, and she is a little more kind to her father."

Fang Ruolan's heart fluttered when she mentioned the Quyi Club. She calmed down and continued to ask:

"Is that a matter for the court?"

"Why!"

Magistrate Fang sighed, now Fang Ruolan was sure that it was a matter for the court.

Magistrate Fang said: "The newspaper I copied today said that Ke Dao was punished by His Majesty again if he made any further comments about establishing a crown prince."

Fang Ruolan also often listened to her father discuss the current situation in the court. Her uncle Li Zhi would also discuss national affairs every time he wrote to her.

The establishment of a crown prince was a major event that everyone in the court paid attention to since the death of the prince in the 28th year of Jiajing.

If you don't understand this period of history, most people think that King Yu, the future Emperor Longqing, has a stable position as the crown prince in the Jiajing Dynasty. In fact, the ministers of the Jiajing Dynasty did not think so.

Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houcong ascended the throne at the age of 14 and lived to be 60 years old. He had four queens, but the first prince was born twelve years after he succeeded to the throne.

However, this "Prince Chongai" died in just two months, and Emperor Jiajing was deeply saddened.

At this time, "Living Immortal" Tao Zhongwen put forward a theory, which is the famous "two dragons never meet". The emperor is the real dragon and the prince is the hidden dragon. When the two dragons meet, they must overcome each other. Of course, the hidden dragon cannot defeat the real dragon.

Three more years passed after that. In the 15th year of Jiajing, the second son Zhu Zaishun was born. In the 16th year of Jiajing, the third son Zhu Zaijing and the fourth son Zhu Zaizhen were born. The royal family finally prospered.

Among them, Zhu Zaihen, Zhu Zaijing, and Zhu Zaizhen were in good health. Jiajing gradually forgot the prophecy that "the two dragons will never meet" and loved the three sons very much. Among them, Zhu Zaihen was the most fond of, and in Zhu Zai When he was three years old, he was made the crown prince.

In the twenty-eighth year of the Jiajing reign, the crown prince Zhu Zaiheng held the crown ceremony. The crown ceremony of the crown prince was a very solemn ceremony, which was equivalent to announcing the political status of the prince to the world. This crown ceremony was very grand. The crown prince and tutor Cui Yuan Holding the crown, Yan Song praised the crown, Xu Jie announced the edict, and all the ministers bowed five times and kowtowed three times.

Unexpectedly, Tao Zhongwen's curse came true again. Three days after the crowning ceremony, the crown prince Zhu Zaihen suddenly contracted a strange disease and died suddenly.

This moment frightened Emperor Jiajing, because since the Renyin Palace Incident, Jiajing had not been close to women, and he had not had any sons since then.

Coupled with the high mortality rate in ancient palaces, after the death of the crown prince in the 28th year of Jiajing, there were only two princes left in Jiajing.

These two single seedlings are Zhu Zaijing, King of Yu, and Zhu Zaizhen, King of Jing.

Because of the prophecy that "two dragons will never meet", Jiajing no longer saw these two sons and no longer named a prince.

Because the reserve position was uncertain, at this time, in order to ask Jiajing to determine his title and establish a prince as soon as possible, the ministers fought a protracted war with Jiajing.

When King Jing saw that his father would not allow him to become a vassal or establish a crown prince, he felt that he had a chance to inherit the throne and colluded with the ministers to seize the throne.

This is the current situation in the court.

Jiajing had made it clear many times that ministers and ministers were not allowed to discuss the matter of establishing a heir apparent. However, he could not stand it and there were always Kedao officials rushing to the tower and constantly writing letters to the emperor to ask the emperor to establish a heir apparent.

The prefect Fang sighed and said: "In the matter of the Li Ke's incident, Zhang Sijing once again came up with the proposal to appoint the governor. His Majesty was furious and demoted him out of the capital and was reassigned to a miscellaneous position in the border area."

Fang Ruolan admired Zhang Jishizhong's courage. You should know that although Jishizhong was only a seventh-rank official, he was still a Qingliu Huaxuan and a Beijing official. As long as he didn't make mistakes, he could be promoted very quickly.

It is thought that his father, the prefect, is a fifth-grade official, but in fact, with his academic qualifications as a top three Jinshi, this level is almost the career ceiling.

For positions higher up, if there is no one above, it will be almost impossible to break through.

Basically, he would go around in circles, and finally move to a wealthy place to be a magistrate. Before retiring, he would get a position as chief envoy or deputy envoy, or he would serve as a sinecure in a certain yamen in the capital.

And being relegated to "extreme border chores", as the name suggests, is an insignificant position in a remote border area.

Magistrate Fang said: "Zhang Sijing and his father are the same Jinshi, but he is the second-class Jinshi and has the title of Orator. Logically speaking, his qualifications should be promoted. Unexpectedly, he offended the emperor and was demoted out of the capital at this time."

"Why!"

Magistrate Fang sighed, apparently worried about the future of his fellow subjects.

Fang Ruolan also sighed. The current situation is like this. The current emperor is arbitrary and will attack ministers whenever they disagree. Being demoted from the capital is already a good result for Yan Guan.

Fang Ruolan asked again:

"Then where was this uncle Zhang Shishu relegated to?"

The magistrate Fang said angrily: "It is unreasonable for the Ministry of Civil Affairs to arrange for Zhang Sijing to be promoted to Yanping Prefecture!"

Now Fang Ruolan finally understood what her father was angry about.

Zhang Sijing would be demoted to "Ji Bian Miscellaneous Job", so the Ministry of Civil Affairs arranged for him to come to Yanping Mansion as a promotion official. Doesn't this mean that Yanping Mansion is the so-called Ji Bian place in the eyes of the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs?

The top four officials of Yanping Prefecture are Jibian miscellaneous officials, so what is the prefect of Fang Prefecture?

The leader of Jibian's handymen?

Fang Zhifu felt that he had been greatly insulted, and then he became sulky.

The more Fang Zhifu thought about it, the more he broke his guard. He said angrily: "These officials of the Ministry of official affairs! Do they know what it means to be a miscellaneous person?"

Fang Ruolan thought for a moment, now that the Japanese rebellion is serious in Fujian, and Yanping Mansion is not as big as Fuzhou Mansion and Quanzhou Mansion, isn't it just a side job?

Fang Ruolan thought for a while and said: "Dad, back then Mr. Xu Ge was demoted to Yanping Mansion as a promotion official. Now he is promoted to the position of Second Assistant to the Cabinet. Perhaps Mr. Xu Ge took pity on Zhang Geizhong, so he greeted him Did the officials arrange for him to be sent to Yanping Mansion?"

When his daughter said this, the prefect felt much better!

Yes, Xu Jie offended his chief assistant Zhang Cong and was demoted to Yanping Prefecture.

Extreme chores! I also served as the Second Assistant to the Cabinet with minor miscellaneous positions!

I am the prefect of Yanping Prefecture! He is the superior of Yanping Prefecture’s official!

Fang Zhifu finally gained a spiritual victory and his mood improved.

Fang Ruolan sighed, now that the Japanese are in trouble in the southeast, the court is still arguing over the establishment of a heir apparent, and the various Qing military censors are still searching for military guards, can the Ming court be better?

At the same time, in Changning Weizhong, it was the night of July 10th.

Su Ze suddenly heard the sound of bells, which were the bells of Changning Guard summoning the soldiers.

Su Ze quickly put on his clothes, picked up the gun under the bed and jumped down.

Rushing out of the room, I only saw torches lit in the Baihu Station. Sure enough, it was the Wei Station summoning the soldiers!

Could it be that the Japanese pirates are coming!

Su Ze also became nervous. He immediately put on his clothes, took the gun and ran quickly to the Baihu Office.

In the dark of night, the guards of Changning gathered at the Baihu Station. When they arrived at the Baihu Station, Su Ze saw the panicked little carrot head Lin Liangjun.

Su Ze grabbed him and asked:

"Where's Baihu?"

When Lin Liangjun saw Su Ze, he calmed down a little. He said, "My brother went to the dock! A ship is coming from the sea!"

Su Ze's heart skipped a beat. Now is the forbidden sea period. Apart from the ships of the Guard, there are no other ships on the sea.

The warships from other guards will not approach Changning Guard at night.

To make the guard station so nervous, there must be a ship from an unknown force.

Is it the deer king calling?

Su Ze quickly calmed down and said to Lin Liangjun:

"You stay at Baihu Station and guide the gathered soldiers to the dock!"

After saying this, Su Ze took the blunderbuss and headed to the guard shipyard according to his memory.

The dock was already brightly lit, and Su Ze quickly found Lin Mojun who was directing the boarding.

Su Ze quickly stepped forward and asked:

"Hundred households! Is there a thief?"

Lin Mojun nodded and shook his head: "The patrol officer discovered that a large ship of unknown origin came to the sea. The guard station turned on the lights but there was no response. I don't know if it ran aground or something."

Su Ze looked at the sea, but couldn't see anything in the dim night.

He said to Lin Mojun: "I will accompany you too!"

Lin Mojun thought for a while, but agreed, and said in a serious tone:

"I want to operate the ship, and leave the cannon team to your command."

Su Ze nodded heavily and quickly boarded the guard ship.

The main soldiers were quickly assembled, and the newly trained musketry team also boarded the lucky ship.

Su Ze asked the gun team to check and clean the gun while looking at the sea, looking for the mysterious ship.

Lin Mojun's boating skills are very good, and he soon discovered the mysterious ship surrounded by the night.

"Light the lights! Light the message lantern!"

During the Yongle period, the Ming Dynasty was able to organize Zheng He's fleet to sail to the Southeast Asia. The signal lights between warships were also invented at that time, which were used to transmit messages between ships at night.

However, the ship on the other side did not respond to the agreed signal, but instead lit up randomly. Lin Mojun's face became more serious now.

"This is not my Ming Dynasty's ship, prepare to fight!"

Lin Mojun gave the order, and the atmosphere on the ship was so tense that it almost solidified.

The lucky ship gradually approached, but the mysterious ship still didn't move. Could it be that it had run aground?

Su Ze gradually saw the appearance of the ship clearly. It was not a traditional Ming Dynasty ship, but it didn't look like a Japanese ship either.

This is a huge wooden sailing ship. The hull is similar to a Chinese-style Guangzhou ship, but the three masts and the jib on the top of the mast are all in the style of a Western sailing ship.

Wait, it’s the Manila Galleon!
