There is nothing else in our Ming Dynasty except that there are many people and there are many songs!

If we can’t beat you to death, we can sing you to death!

"Home of the Ming Dynasty" has never been released to the outside world, so the audience has naturally never heard of it. At first listen, they were attracted by the practical lyrics and beautiful melody.

The relationship between Ming Dynasty and thousands of households is indeed like this, which made many "loyal people" present feel filled with emotion after hearing this.

After the singing, the audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers that could not subside for a long time.

The second song "Like the Ming Dynasty"!

This song is so suitable for this occasion. It doesn’t matter if you don’t like it, let’s give it to ourselves!

The era of dumping the blame is gone forever, and he can take good care of himself in Nandu.

A certain prince's Daming is a brand new Daming. Even if it is not brand new, it can still be put in a new shell!

This kind of song, which is pleasant and can stimulate Aiming's feelings, is the most popular among the courtiers.

A certain prince knew all about this, otherwise he wouldn’t have wasted time and effort in producing these programs.

The following song is even more exciting - "The Most Dazzling Da Ming Feng"!

The purpose of the Spring Festival Gala is to keep the audience entertained. All the songs that have not been released yet are all sounds of nature.

The accompaniment level of the Houdi Band is naturally very high. Each musician has some skills and there is no such thing as fishing in troubled waters.

In order to achieve the best soundtrack effect, a certain prince went through a sieve one by one and immediately kicked out the unqualified ones.

In order to ensure the sound effect, although a certain prince prepared a loudspeaker, it was also equipped as an emergency. The singers all sang with their loud voices.

There is absolutely no lip-synching, and there is no prerequisite like a tape recorder.

This shows that in any era, rich people can enjoy the treatment of listening to live singing...

A certain prince was still thinking about protecting the singer's voice. No matter how good the singer was, a singer could only sing two songs before taking a break. There would be no encore in this place.

The next two songs are "Today is a Good Day" and "Wish You Good Luck". With these two songs, Tudi becomes festive, peaceful and lively.

After the five songs were sung, the audience was still unfinished, but a certain prince told everyone that the sketch "Eating Noodles" would be performed next!

Since tables, chairs, benches and other props need to be moved, the audience can enjoy a ten-minute break. If you are in a hurry, you can go to the mobile restroom set up outside the hall for convenience.

You can also pause while watching and eating. This party is much more flexible than a live broadcast!

The audience does not want to miss the exciting program, so they naturally solve their own affairs as soon as possible.

Naturally, the concubines no longer had to sit upright, and all stood up and walked around to relieve fatigue.

So far, the party has been going well, but the skit is the highlight.

Although there are many lines in the sketch, it is not easy to remember them all during the performance.

But there is no shortage of people in the capital who want to eat this bowl of rice. There are all men, women, old and young, so there is no need to worry about finding actors.

It’s not that a certain prince didn’t pay, and more importantly, after the performance, these actors could perform in an outside venue.

All the money they earn belongs to themselves, which is the motivation for them to strive for it. They can get at least one or two taels of silver for one performance, and as many as one or two hundred taels for one hundred performances.

There is no need to doubt whether it can be performed so many times. The capital has a population of one million. Even if one percent of the people can watch this sketch, it can be performed for dozens of times.

When wealthy families in the capital get married or celebrate their birthdays, those who are not short of money will invite actors to perform. They can also perform in counties around the capital, let alone Tianjin, Baoding, and Datong.

In an era of limited information, literary and artistic programs are rare. Not only can you enjoy them, but you can also demonstrate your own strength. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

Although a certain prince spent most of his time in the East Palace, it was not that he did not understand the market outside.

After performing for the government and the public in the imperial city, the appearance fees of all singers and actors outside were in line with those of their top peers.

It’s not surprising that a song costs five taels or even ten taels of silver. The same goes for sketches and cross talk, and the latter two take longer than songs, so they are more affordable...

Earn five hundred taels of silver with one sketch!

That's right!

This kind of thing happened in Ming Dynasty!

If you are rich, you are willing to spend five taels of silver to listen to it!

If the uncle is willing, can you take care of it? ? ?

When celebrating a birthday, you can hire a bunch of artists for fifty taels to make the whole family happy. This money is well spent!

“You have to pay for noodles!”

"The soup noodles are exchanged for fried noodles. Give money to Jinzi?"

“I didn’t even pay for the fried noodles!”

"I didn't eat the fried noodles either?"

This skit made the audience jump with joy, the scene was full of laughter, and the sound of applause and cheers continued throughout the show.

Wonderful!

After hearing this, the civil servants couldn't help stroking their beards and marveled.

Such an ingenious program must only be conceived by the prince.

It’s perfect to enjoy it on New Year’s Eve, and you’re in for a treat.

It's just that the lighting time is very short in winter, and the light in the temple is already insufficient at four o'clock.

A certain prince asked someone to hold a lamp, and it was an electric light!

In order to prevent the hall from instantly turning dark due to battery exhaustion, dozens of new oil lamps were also lit.

The electric lights are all hung on beams and columns, and the light emitted after being powered on is completely unobstructed, allowing the audience to see an incomparable novelty.

Some people saw this object when they were sitting down, thought it was a decoration, and didn't pay attention to it.

I never expected that hundreds of lamps would emit such dazzling light at the same time, no less than an oil lamp.

Hota Masamori and others were greatly surprised by this. They stared blankly at the luminous object above their heads for a long time.

Although Zheng Zhilong and others were well-informed, their reaction was not much better. On the contrary, Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Shengying were already used to it.

"You don't have to do this. After the thermal power plant is built and the wires are erected, electric lights will be available in thousands of households along with telephones. By then, you will also be able to enjoy the convenience and benefits brought by fairyland technology!"

The people around a certain prince and the concubines were naturally not surprised. Telephones were installed in the East Palace and Kunning Palace. There were also electric lights in the East Palace. The beautiful mother had also seen this thing and mentioned it to her sisters during the mahjong game.

If there was only one place in the imperial palace that was still brightly lit at night, it would be the East Palace. This was also what a certain prince expected to see.

It is expected that the dream will come true before the next New Year's Eve, and Kunning Palace, Xiaofei's House and Changping can all be lit up by this novelty.

This item is brighter than an oil lamp and does not produce black smoke or pungent smell!

Very good! How wonderful! Very high-end!

After Zheng Zhilong and Hota Masamori watched it, they both wanted to get such a good thing...

The prince can even sell himself an airship, so it must not be too difficult to obtain such a thing.

Zheng Zhilong was very tempted by any object he had his eye on, just to spend more money.

With this thing, even at night, it can make the room as bright as daytime. How can it not be loved by people?

The following programs, including the songs "Today's Happiness", "Twice Better", "Order of the Times", and the cross talk "Who is the No. 1 Brother in Beijing", all received applause and praise from the audience.

It's similar to a court meeting. A certain prince calculated the time. Basically, after performing three or four songs plus a skit or cross talk, he could rest for ten to fifteen minutes.

After working on it from five o'clock until about eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, it was finally completed, and the audience expressed that they were still unsatisfied.

Many people slept soundly during the day, intending to recharge themselves just to come and watch the Spring Festival Gala.

I'm still in the excitement stage right now, and I don't feel sleepy at all, but it makes a certain prince yawn repeatedly...

When it was ten minutes before twelve o'clock, the Guards Battalion started to set off fireworks with mortars in the open space south of the Ancestral Temple.

We have prepared 6,666 fireworks for this ceremony, enough to last for more than half an hour!

There was a sea of ​​people outside Chengtian Gate. This news was published in the "Jingshi Daily" published the day before yesterday and yesterday.

Therefore, the common people appeared on Chang'an Street an hour ago and were unwilling to leave easily no matter how cold the weather was.

Chang'an Street is also brightly lit, with various small vendors dotted here and there. The income this night is comparable to that of the previous three or five days.

It was already overcrowded as midnight approached. As the bell rang, the people knew that the new year had arrived.

Colorful and dazzling fireworks continued to bloom in the night sky, while thousands of people on the ground prayed silently.

Good weather!

Cathay Mingan!

All the best!

Make money!

Accompanied by beauties...

All kinds of wishes have been made. Whether they can come true or not depends on God’s mood!

There is no need to worry about unexploded fireworks falling into the crowd and causing unnecessary harm.

The muzzles of all mortars were facing west, and the impact point was in the south of Taiye Pond. Even if there were dumb bombs, they would only hit fish.

The work lasted until one o'clock in the morning, and then it was finally over.

The common people were still unsatisfied, and so were the VIPs watching in the rear residence.

But we have to go to the Temple of Heaven to worship our ancestors the next day. We cannot delay this matter. If we continue to bother, it will be dawn.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was obvious that none of the ministers participating in this important event had any interest. They were all bored and perfunctory.

The father-in-law-to-be, Xue Guoguan, knew how to choose the right time to give advice to a certain prince. The civil servants, military generals, and distinguished guests from afar all thought that yesterday's party was very exciting.

Therefore...

I want to watch it again today!

Shameless!

Despite the scolding, a certain prince didn't want to dampen everyone's interest on the first day of the new year.

A certain prince has always been good at what he does, so this time he followed everyone's wishes to avoid being unhappy at the beginning of the year.

This is also what the beautiful mother and a group of women in the palace mean, and they haven't seen enough.

There is nothing to do in the back mansion. It is not easy to have such a wonderful show. It would be better to enjoy it again.

It doesn't cost much to hire someone to perform in a show, and a certain prince is not short of this amount of money.

It was originally planned that after the performance in Huangji Palace, it would be performed again specifically for the women, chamberlains, and maids of the palace.

Well, now, the schedule has been greatly advanced, and we still have to perform several more performances.

The performance was performed once for civil servants and their families, the generals were treated equally, and the distinguished guests also had to perform it again.

After that, many merchants, especially the students of a certain prince, were big profit and tax earners and could not be treated badly.

After all, there will be at least five more performances!

This may not necessarily stop it. Doubling the number of games is not impossible to happen.

Dry!

I saw the live replay so soon, what retribution~!

A certain prince just wants to watch the clone programs of this era to find out what's new. Watching them once is enough, and any more would be a waste of time.

But people around me, such as Yang Jinchao, Li Jizhou, Xi'er and others, definitely want to watch it again.

These people wouldn't dare say much if they didn't go, but they would definitely feel uncomfortable.

For the sake of everyone's demands, a certain prince had no choice but to follow the crowd.

When Hotta Masamori saw his absence, he might have thought that he was in poor health.

Xiao Feizhai is willing to go, but like his sister Chang Ping, it's mostly for eating and drinking...

If you think about it carefully, if you see a good skit or a good song in the future, you will have to watch it several times to be satisfied.

The behavior of this group of people is also easy to understand. There is no TV or radio, so they just point to this and have fun.

Pitiful!

Inventing television…

It’s easier to build a big screen!

But we have to wait for a while, so for now we’ll just have to watch live performances!

Even if the actor is so miserable that he plans to eat noodles without paying, he will still have to eat noodles several times, not counting today!

The audience consciously entered the venue, and since they did not have to spend money to buy tickets, they wished they could watch it 800 times in one go!

With yesterday’s experience, performing today will be much smoother.

I estimate that after a few performances, singers and actors will be able to perform their own shows with their eyes closed.

A certain prince has watched all the rehearsals of the show, plus yesterday's premiere, so he is just going through the motions now.

There’s not much to say, I arranged the party myself, and I have to watch it with tears in my eyes!

We have to learn lessons next year, otherwise we will regret it...

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, a certain prince had to perform a whole party for the Queen's Residence, so he finally didn't have to go.

But Old Fart Zheng is here with a very clear purpose, that is, he wants to buy electric lights!

A certain prince made him a friendly price - two hundred thousand taels!

This is the price of a thermal power plant, so it definitely cannot be considered expensive.

Of course it was so cheap that even Zheng Zhilong couldn’t believe it, for fear of buying a fake!

It doesn't matter if Xiamen is short of coal, it can be transported by sea, and if that doesn't work, it can also be used to generate electricity through hydropower.

Zheng Zhilong's requirements are not high. He only needs to light up his mansion and leave other places alone for the time being.

The reason for giving such a low shipping price is that after spring, we will have to trouble others to transport 100,000 Japanese troops to Liaodong.

It is very difficult to feed this army of 100,000 people, but even more difficult is to defeat this army of 100,000 people!

As long as it can trouble Huang Taiji's heart, a certain prince is very happy to provide money, food, and weapons!

There’s nothing to say. Real people do real things. In this regard, you should do what you say!

After autumn, the braided army brought great disaster to Jifu area.

After the beginning of spring, a certain prince invited the Japanese army to go to Liaodong to "repay the gift"!

The rules are the same as last time. As long as they are in kind, except for the captured trophies, they will be distributed by the Japanese troops themselves.

You can cash out if you catch a living person, and the same goes for capturing braided soldiers. The higher the title, the more valuable it is. This can activate the fighting spirit of the Japanese army.

A certain prince believed that the poor people in the Japanese country would be very excited about this condition, because the poor people worked very hard last time.

There will be more poor guys coming this time. As long as we fight steadily and don't advance too easily, the braided army won't be able to stop this big mess!

A hundred thousand troops are huddled on the seashore. With the support of chariots and artillery, the braided cavalry should not be able to take much advantage.

I don’t know if Huang Taiji’s airship can be imitated by then, but it won’t be a big problem to build a mortar.

If both sides are equipped with a large number of mortars, it will be a good show...

Two to three thousand mortars blasted each other!

This scene must be more exciting than any blockbuster film!

In order to give the Japanese army more chips to win, a certain prince also planned to use his trump card - snake venom!

Equip the Japanese army with 5,000 snake venom explosive packs and 50,000 snake venom grenades. After they are projected over, the braids on the opposite side will be cool!

A certain prince is quite confident in this aspect!

If Huang Taiji hadn't figured out the antidote to smallpox by then, then a certain prince would be even more targeted.

How can we fight without killing people?

In view of what the braided soldiers had done before, it was understandable to use smallpox and snake venom against them.

A certain prince was worried that the dose was not high enough. Just throw in one million doses at a time and it would be perfect!

The letter to the dumper also explained the purchase of snake venom, hoping it would be delivered before spring.
