In ancient times, wealthy dignitaries would build a building in their homes. The bureau of the lady in the back garden was called a show building. Those with more money would also build a theater building.
However, there were many architectural systems in ancient times, and there were countless cases of transgression. Therefore, most people only had two types of pavilions: show buildings and theater buildings, and they were not allowed to build them too high.
In the capital, the height of the Hall of Supreme Harmony cannot be exceeded, and in ordinary prefectures, the height of your pavilions cannot exceed the height of the defensive towers on the city wall.
On the one hand, there are rules, but on the other hand, there are also safety considerations. Why do you cultivate to such a high level? The whole city is under your observation. Do you want to rebel or do you have evil intentions?
In ancient times, tyranny was a serious crime of beheading. From this point of view, Emperor Tongzhi allowed the Capital Iron Works to build factories at will, which was a very enlightened policy. This was all due to Xiao Letian's study tour!
Fu Qing ordered another banquet and moved the main banquet venue to the theater. The three-story theater borrowed many design concepts from Western theaters, and the circular layout also increased the stereo effect of the sound.
There is even a mechanical lifting device in this theater. The domestic theater troupe can use the lifting platform to perform some fairy songs such as Feixiang, Tiangong and so on, which increases the three-dimensionality!
This three-dimensional theater has only been completed for more than three months. Fuqing spent a total of 250,000 taels of silver to build such an exquisite theater, which was an eye-opener for these princes.
In the lively drama of Havoc in Heaven, the famous actors can fly back and forth in the sky with steel wires hanging from their bodies, and the heavenly soldiers and generals fighting Monkey King can actually show a three-dimensional style of high and low through the lifting stage.
Coupled with the use of multiple curtain light-transmitting designs, the curtains behind the entire stage are painted with numerous palaces and pavilions, all of which are the wonders and exquisiteness of the ninety-nine heavens.
Behind the curtain, various lighting settings make the background on the curtain come alive. The effect of a havoc in heaven is no less than that of later movie special effects.
"Oh my God! Third Master, you are enjoying this so much. This... what kind of fairy theater is this?" Prince Zheng's eyes almost dropped.
"Haha, Prince Zheng doesn't know. This theater is very rare even among the Chinese. It is an experimental stage design. The Chinese National Center for the Performing Arts is under construction and has not yet been completed. I copied part of many design ideas in it!"
"There are scientists on Europa who specialize in the study of sound and optics. They can create wonderful and exquisite things. How can ordinary mortals have ever seen such magical celestial palaces?"
"Haha, people! You have to enjoy it. It's only two to three hundred thousand taels of silver. Which of you can't afford it? You all have money, but you don't know how to enjoy it even if you have money!"
"Why do I admire the Chinese? I admire them for being able to make money and spend money. They have a one-stop shop for eating, drinking and having fun. The lives of ordinary people are just like a dream!"
King Yu stared at the Heavenly Palace Fairy who was immobilized by Sun Wukong, and said involuntarily, "This monkey is just a monkey! He used immobilization to immobilize the fairy, so why did he steal peaches to eat?" "
"Tsk, tsk, what a waste of natural resources! Let me tell you, Third Master, you have such a good thing, but you don't offer it to the emperor, but you keep it for yourself... Aren't you afraid that the censors will take a copy of you?"
"Haha... Prince Yu was joking. No matter how good the thing is, I have to test it first to see if there are any problems. If something goes wrong after it is presented to the emperor, then I can't tell!"
"When this technical test is mature, I will never forget His Majesty!"
Chengzhi stared at the pink arms of the Heavenly Palace Fairy and drooled, "I want it too! You... you call me those Chinese engineering teams, isn't it just three hundred thousand taels? I can afford it. The king wants it too!"
"Oh, Prince Zheng, 300,000 yuan is the lowest price for this theater... Look at the wood I used, it is the most common sylvestris pine!"
"I don't dare to use any precious mahogany. After all, they are all experimental products... If you really want to build this theater, it's really not cheap!"
"How expensive can it be? I don't care, my lord. Do I need the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver? I also want to build such a heavenly palace in the palace!"
"Sure! Then I will contact you for you. Since you are not short of money, what else can I say..."
These royal nobles were all milling around on the first and second floors of the theater. No one dared to go up to the third floor. Only Emperor Tongzhi and the Sai Shishi watched the play together.
Prince Dun rushed upstairs and pursed his lips, "The third master is so calculating..."
Fu Qing pretended to be confused and asked, "Why did the prince say this?"
The two walked to the corner and pretended to watch a play. Prince Dun smiled slightly, "This theater has been exposed. I believe it won't be long before everyone in the capital knows that the third master has hidden a heavenly palace in the mansion!"
"It's such a pleasure, and it's also a good plan... Let His Majesty and the officials of cultural relics in the DPRK know that the Third Master is a man who enjoys himself, then naturally not many people will be wary of you!"
"It's so helpless to hide one's clumsiness and make such mistakes!"
Fu Qing also laughed: "We are each other. The prince lives in the court with the title of King of Heroes and acts in a quack-like manner. This is probably what he has in mind!"
"You fought with Cheng Beile for this Sai Shishi. Are you really horny? Haha... all you want is the reputation of being horny!"
"Hey...what happened to the Qing Dynasty? Everyone must learn to make mistakes and make themselves look like bad guys before they can survive. Good people really can't survive!"
Prince Dun and Fu Qing smiled bitterly at each other, "Yes! Good people really can't survive in the court. It would be safer if you make a mistake and let others scold you more!"
"What kind of world is this!"
At this moment, a strange and suppressed sound suddenly came from the third floor. All the people present were smart people, and they knew what happened as soon as they heard it.
People laughed and said nothing, pretending not to hear. At this moment, the gongs and drums were beating more intensely. Sun Wukong plucked out a handful of vellus hairs. Dozens of Sun Wukongs jumped out from above and below the stage, wielding golden hoops and hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals to kill them. Together.
In the private room on the third floor, Zai Chun was already fighting with Sai Shishi. This half-open door possessed a unique wildness that deeply attracted Zai Chun.
After playing around, there are actually a few European women who are open to it!
There is absolutely no coquettishness like a woman from the Qing Dynasty. This can be seen from the conversation between her and Zai Chun just now. How can ordinary women dare to talk back to the emperor in public.
Zai Chun found a long-lost sense of excitement and equality from Sai Shishi. Perhaps Zai Chun is a bit masochistic by nature, or he has been westernized.
From his subconscious mind, he likes women who are stronger and women who are more equal. The appearance of Sai Shishi suddenly fills his emotional void!
