After leaving the Qinzheng Hall, Alibai let out a long breath.
If it goes so smoothly and the most critical part has been solved, there is nothing to be nervous about.
Fang Zhengyi looked at him curiously and asked, "Second Prince, you seem to be very nervous."
Ali Baigan laughed: "This... made Mr. Fang laugh. It is my first time to go out so far, and I still have a heavy responsibility on my shoulders. I am indeed a little nervous."
"I am not good at words."
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's a rare trip out for fun. I'll take you around the capital for ten days and a half before going back."
Ten days and a half month? It's been a little long.
Alibai shook his head and said: "Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your kindness, but let's just play. I don't like playing very much. In fact, I'm more anxious..."
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry yet." Fang Zhengyi interrupted him.
"...."
"When it comes to trade, it's okay to do it one day early and one day late. I'm sure the emperor of your country won't blame him. How can a person not have some hobbies? Tell me, if you like eating, going to the theater, or if you like women, whatever you want, I know all about it. Arrangements have been made for you.”
Why is this person so vulgar and rude? He doesn't look like the smart person the Imperial Master said...
Alibai was confused, but when Fang Zhengyi insisted, he could only say helplessly: "On weekdays, I also like to read books and watch plays."
"What kind of book or play, I will arrange it for you."
"It makes Master Fang laugh. They are all fantasy novels bought from Jingguo. I wonder if Master Fang has ever heard of Journey to the West?"
Yo? Love reading novels!
Fang Zheng showed surprise and whispered: "You also like to read Journey to the West? Let me tell you, I wrote this book, so don't go out and spread it... Our officialdom is very serious, let others know It has some impact on my official reputation."
"Ah!?" Alibai said in surprise: "Really, but I see that the author on the cover wrote Liu Cheng'en?"
"That's one of my pen names. I don't know which character in it the second prince likes. I've already written an outline for the sequel to Journey to the West. I just want to listen to the second prince's opinions so that I can revise it."
Ali Bai was a little excited. He didn't expect Journey to the West to be written by Fang Zhengyi. This was really... fate.
"I like...Of course I like Sun Wukong, he is an unparalleled hero and has unparalleled military power!"
Fang Zheng gave a thumbs up: "The second prince is wise. There is a saying among the people in Dajing that there is only one Monkey King in the minds of a thousand people. Every aspiring young man wants to be the Monkey King. It can be seen that the second prince has great ambitions. Full of enthusiasm!"
Alibai's face began to turn red, while Fang Zhengyi felt happy.
Isn't this a pure ancient two-spined ape? The chatterbox is open!
"Then after Journey to the West, the Daughter's Kingdom..."
"Let's not talk about Journey to the West for now. You can buy the book and read it slowly. What show does the Second Prince like to watch in the Kingdom of Jin? I will take you to relax now."
"Dou Lang, I wonder if Mr. Fang has heard of it?"
"What!?" Fang Zheng picked his ears.
Wolf fighting? What is that?
Alibai recalled: "Oh, this play was written by Master Paba. I heard that he learned it from Master Fang when he returned from Dajing a few years ago."
"We need to make more good shows for the people to see, so that the people can see that the family and the country are united as one, and the top and bottom are united as one."
"The story tells the story of a pack of wolves attacking the people, and our country sending cavalry to save the people in danger."
"Grandmaster Paba is indeed amazing." Fang Zheng applauded vigorously.
When Praba first came to Dajing, he took a bath with him and watched a scene. He just said a few words and this bitch still took it seriously!
"Aside from wolf fighting, is there anything else? We don't have this theme in Dajing."
"Basically it's Dou Lang, oh, and Dou Lang II."
"Aren't you tired of watching this all the time?"
"I'm not tired of it. From the high officials to the common people, they all love to watch it every day. But there is nothing else to watch except this, and the Imperial Master doesn't write scripts anymore."
Look at the miserable people of the Kingdom of Jin. Their spiritual life is so lacking.
Fang Zheng put his arm around Ali Bai's shoulders: "Let's go! What's the point of watching that thing every day? I'll show you my great show!"
Ali Bai's whole body tensed up from this sudden movement.
However, when Fang Zheng showed such arrogance, he was too embarrassed to push him away, so he could only walk out without intimidation.
"Master Fang, please slow down..."
...
Inside the Banshanfang stage.
It was getting late, and there were more than a dozen rows of chairs densely packed under the stage. The people were staring at the stage in high spirits.
Fang Zhengyi and Ali Bai were sitting in the front row.
On the stage, two men and one woman acted with great emotion, while a handsome man pushed a broken bicycle with a look of sorrow on his face.
Opposite, a man and a woman were holding a group of BMWs, and the woman shouted with tears in her eyes:
"I would rather cry on a BMW than laugh on a bicycle!"
Then he and the man left the stage on a tall horse, and then the beautiful man's inner monologue...
Ali Bai was sitting in the audience, his hands tightly gripping the armrests of his seat, his chest rising and falling.
Fang Zhengyi kept looking at him quietly.
"Hey! This girl is so vain and hateful!" Ali Bai angrily slapped the armrest.
Fang Zheng leaned close to him and whispered: "Second Prince, what comes after this is interesting. In fact, the woman was terminally ill and deliberately took this opportunity to leave her beloved. Later, the man discovered the truth through his friends and bravely restored his love. In the end, the heroine By riding a Taoyuan brand bicycle for exercise, the terminal illness was cured, and the two lived a happy life."
Alibai suddenly felt a lump in his chest and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Why are you telling me this? This is so exciting!
But having a happy ending is a great comfort.
"I see, Master Fang has seen it?"
"Of course I have seen it. This scene came out of Taoyuan County under my rule."
Fang Zheng thought to himself, not only had he seen it, but it was a script written by Wu Sheng specifically to sell bicycles. It was an entire advertising play.
"I see, no wonder it's called Taoyuan Love Story. The bicycles are also quite interesting. I want to take a few back with me when I return to China."
"I wonder how the second prince thinks this kind of drama compares with the Jin Kingdom's?" Fang Zhengyi asked.
Alibai said seriously: "To be honest, they are all children who love each other for a small family and lack patriotic plot. And every time an actor rides a bicycle, is it necessary to shout so loudly to emphasize that he is riding a Taoyuan brand bicycle? I can't see it. I understand. Although it is very touching overall, but..."
"It's better to fight a wolf."
"..."
Fang Zhengyi smiled awkwardly: "Yes, the second prince is indeed very discerning. He can see the flaws of this play at a glance. It seems that he has studied this very deeply."
"Master Fang continues the performance, let's talk about it after watching it."
When the whole scene came to an end, Ali Bai breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, looked at the sky, and said: "Master Fang, it's getting late, let's go back."
"Okay, the second prince should be tired too. Get some rest tomorrow. I'll take you to see other things. Let's go."
As soon as Fang Zheng stood up and left, Ali Bai followed him closely, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, "Tomorrow?" What else can be new tomorrow?
But looking at Fang Zhengyi's back, he gradually showed a thoughtful expression.
This Fang Zhengyi is different from what he imagined...it seems a bit interesting.
