Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Writing Zaju is difficult and difficult, and simple and simple.

For a person named Cui Xie, who can’t even hear the words in Beijing, writing plays is harder than learning the traditional stereotypes and writing poems. But in the eyes of the literati in this space and time, the words are more than poems and the songs are more than words. It's something ordinary people can do, and it can't be said how difficult it is.

Nowadays, Beixi Opera is still the main thing. It is necessary to write a Zaju, but first select a set of palace tunes according to the content. Various palace tunes have their own sets: the lesser ones are like Zhonglu Gongqu, and the introduction is divided into chapters, There are fifty chapters in the past, four chapters of slow words, seven chapters of similar words, and one chapter of similar words, a total of 62 chapters; as many as Nanlu Gong, there are 180 chapters, just pick A convenient prescription will do.

When writing, according to the role and plot, fill in the appropriate tunes in order, and then intersperse in the middle of the subject, gag, and then can pile up a school book that can be read.

The hard part is not writing words, but writing fresh plots that someone loves to watch, and writing vivid characters by words.

After Li Dongyang heard his story, he felt that the play had finished three points. All that is left is to ask people to choreograph and sing the story and write the guest white, which is a good show.

But to arrange them into boutiques, work must be done outside the theater. Li Dongyang earnestly persuaded him: "Nowadays, the outside schools all follow each other for themselves. The play words in one book are all in the book. When those musicians and actors perform on stage, they don’t care what you write in this play. I am arrogantly gagging and talking about lewd words-you, the third lady of the king, want to hold a pipa and do business again, and they don’t even know what words to add. To arrange this play, not only have to find a serious writer, but also a person. Good team, according to your drama, it will be exhausted word by word."

Cui Xie nodded: "This story is still in its rudimentary form. I originally wanted to write a copy for them to change. Since the husband said so, then I will try to write some guest whites by myself, and I will ask my husband to review it when someone writes it out of the hospital. ."

Their family has worked with a group that sings five beautiful operas, and several of them respected them in rehearsal, and performed special effects meticulously. It is estimated that when filming a new movie, I will tell them seriously, and the actors will not change the words of the drama on stage.

Li Dongyang responded with a "natural", and he asked: "The student is the first time to write a play. I wonder if there are any taboos here? For example, writing about the imperial histories and the emperor's emperor's third mother as a virgin..."

Li Dongyang smiled indifferently: “As long as you don’t specify that it’s your dynasty, it’s okay. These loyal and filial piety dramas often have graces from the emperor. However, since the Guo Dynasty, there have been very few dramas about Jin Yiwei. The reputation is not good, and there are few people who look at it. Would you like to change the identity of Xie Qianhu to a Fu Yin, Xiang Gong, etc.?"

That's not good, we have to wash the white brocade! We are going to tout Xie Qianhu!

Cui Xie said stubbornly: "This is a current event. The people outside are spreading it like this. We are acting according to the facts. Why bother to change our status?"

"It's true that the people outside spread it like this?" Li Dongyang smiled and looked at him: "I've also heard a story about a jinyiwei wisely arresting a black thief at a restaurant outside. The pipa player Wang Sanniang inside is not a chastity woman, right? I don’t know where you heard the story of the righteous woman?"

Cui Xie said frankly, "Isn't this Wang Sanniang as the mainstay, just to rub the name of "Zhao Wuniang Pipa"? If your husband feels bad, let's change the play to "Wang Sanniang's Pipa" and change the name of Wang Sanniang. It’s changed, and everyone else uses pseudonyms, and others don’t talk about us."

In the play, he didn't name Xie Qianhu Xie Ying, just Xie Qianhu. How many Jinyiwei families with the same surname Xie are not allowed in this world?

He speaks so arrogantly, Li Dongyang has nothing to say, and simply asks him to write Diben for himself to see-he finds acquaintance talents to write songs, always better than those in Jiaofang who can only copy routines .

Cui Xie is looking for a job for himself, but his heart is full of love for art, and he is not too hard at all. When he got home, he asked someone to prepare a strong thick paper, sharpened a row of pencils, and began to draw the shot script.

It's not a serious script, just like when rehearsing Gao Baihu, design the background and transition rhythm.

He wrote the script for the first time. For fear of not doing it well, he compared the piles of courtyard books that Cui Liangdong had moved, and drew the background pictures of different scenes. After drawing the set, estimate the performance time based on the number of words of others, allocate the time according to the scene, design the role, write the central content of the guest, and reserve space for the lyrics in the dialogue.

At the end of the writing, because there are only a few sets of jackets and skirts for civilian girls in ordinary plays, and there is no Jinyiwei in the predecessors' plays, he simply overthrew everything and opened the hard drive to force it.

The heroine, what does the heroine look like from beginning to end? Male No. 2 Xie Qianhu is a soul figure, and he must change his clothes last time. Even the useless male protagonist has to have a set of dating clothes, otherwise he will really drown in the background of Jin Yiwei!

Anyway, he has money now, and he has to worry about Cui Senyi's use of the money if he stays in his hands, so he simply put it in an advertisement for selling clothes, vote!

He didn't spend much time writing the script, so he really devoted himself to designing clothes for the protagonists. The main heroine Wang Yaoniang must always have her ten-year-old dress to change, and her head and face should be copper-clad with gold, and she needs two sets of filial piety! One set is the hemp-based heavy filial piety worn by his parents when they just died, and one set is dressed in plain white skirts when they enter Beijing playing the pipa and dressed as a little dragon girl.

The guards in Jinyi generally wear the red improved drags. The male protagonist and the background board Jinyiwei wear red red, black gauze hat, and thin boots. Xie Qianhu has a few scenes that need to show the official body. According to the grade, he must wear a green scatter, with a brocade-rim white cloak or a pop-ink cloak . When it comes to a scene without official uniforms, the male protagonist changes into a romantic (cheap) white suit. Xie Qianhu's Shangguan should dress more modestly, wearing red and green drags or stickers.

However, in order to conform to the original character, Xie Mou's boots had to be remodeled in the play, and the shoemaker was asked to secretly add a higher heel in it.

He worked on this script for a full month, and the outline didn't write a few thousand words, so he just drew the design drawings. Teacher Li found even young ladies who could write songs, and just waited for his outline to be handed in, but he didn't wait for the left or the right. Every time he asked, he said that he was almost unfinished. .

This dragged on little by little. The romantic talents whom Teacher Li contacted all picked up other playbooks. He couldn’t wait any longer and urged Cui Xie to ask: “How much did you write? , Are you still waiting for someone to add changes? Look at your enthusiasm, it is almost ready to be written as a novel! I think you don’t want to rehearse anything, your writing is not bad, and you can find a place to print it out, but it’s harder than yours. Hehe wrote a story, and the book he was discharged from the school can’t be regarded as a better one.

To say that legendary novels are quite popular nowadays, they have published a romantic novel in Zhirong Study, which is still pirated and sold. However, he has been writing argumentative essays for several years from before to after crossing, and he is afraid of writing novels because of his professional mismatch.

Besides, this drama extols the military and civilian fish and water conditions. Just telling the big guys to see what is the use must be made by ordinary people to love it. When they see Tiqi, they think of Xie Qianhu, who upholds the law and loves the people like a child!

Cui Xie comforted the big brother: "It's really getting better soon, the disciple just wants to think about the characters again."

"Are you afraid that people don't write well?" Li Dongyang smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? First take the writing notebook and teach others to write. If there is any anxiety, I will change it for you!"

But he... couldn't change it.

Only after getting Cui Xie's script outline did Li Dao realize that what he was thinking about was not character dialogue, but character portraits. There are only a dozen pages of outlines in a thick manuscript, and the rest are all kinds of pictures. The edges of the script are only bound with a few stitches with shallow lines, and pictures can be added at any time.

The patterns are all drawn with graphite pens without coloring, only a thin line is drawn on the side to specify which part to use which color. But even with such a simple line draft, the faces of the characters on the paintings are still lifelike, the dress styles are ingenious, the setting is exquisite and beautiful, and it is amazing to see.

At first glance, the characters are a bit like those of those who learn from Cui Meiren's vulgar painting style, but when you look closely, they feel that their appearance is more vivid. Although the women in the play are dressed in different clothes and combed with different hairstyles, they can be seen as the same person. Although the guards in the Jinyi guards are all uniform, their faces are slightly different; it may not be like the emperor and Yushi. He also drew the pictures carefully and matched the clothes for the characters in the show.

The best painting is that Xie Qianhu, but it is exactly the same as the Xie Qianhu that he has seen, who has been invited to inspect the evildoers of the capital!

Master Li couldn't help wondering again, who should sing in the troupe when performing this play.

Cui Xie saw that he was staring at Xie Ying’s design with good eyes, and went up and asked, “Is it because the disciple didn’t paint like it? The disciple was afraid that court official uniforms would not appear on the stage, so I changed the form roughly. Take it back and change it?"

"Is this a picture you drew? It was not painted by a painter?" Li Dongyang glanced at him suddenly: "I never heard that you still paint?"

Soon... Didn't you tell someone to pass on a "Cui Meiren", don't you dare to expose it without washing it up.

Cui Xie lowered his head and replied: "The disciple felt that painting was just a small skill and was not worth mentioning, so I never said it. When I was young, my disciple learned to draw boneless lotus from Mr. Lu, and later only used it as a pastime when he was tired of studying. Occasionally I draw a few strokes, but the drawing is not good."

If this painting is not good, Cui Meiren should be ashamed!

Li Dao put together his notebooks, and said heavily: "Good drawing! Even this copy has improved! You don't lose money when you work hard these days. Such a copy is enough to write to anyone! "Those who can't wait for today to write dramas for others will just run away, holding such a copy, are you afraid that everyone who really knows how to write dramas will not write?

He felt that this apprentice was too good. He didn’t appreciate it by himself, and he had to be known to others: "I think your book is good for thinking and with pictures. As long as you write the drama, it’s no better What's the difference between those scripts and scripts? After the person I was looking for had finished the academic script, the teacher would print it out with you and teach you to print your name on it."

Cui Xie touched his face, lowered his head shyly and said, "The disciple actually has this meaning... I'm afraid that the talented scholar who wrote the academy disagrees. In fact, it is extremely easy to print this book, Ju Anzhai's. The young proprietor and I are in sympathy with my brothers. They are now living in our guest house. Our hospital was supposed to print it out, but it was just a sentence."

Dao Li listened to him with a smile at first. When it was said that Shaodong of Ju'anzhai was living in his house, his face changed slightly and he asked, "...Ju'anzhai?"

Cui Xie nodded, and replied honestly: "It is the Ju'anzhai who was born with six talents who ordered the school version of "Three Kingdoms". His printed color pictures are very good. If we want to print the school, we can also ask his family to copy the pictures. Sketch and color, transfer into a color painting plate."

Li Dongyang's lips tightened slightly, his expression solemn.

Ju'anzhai is not only a member of the Six Talents Criticizing the Three Kingdoms, his family also hosted a Three Kingdoms Beauty Conference, and he wrote the first Xiao Qiao poem at the meeting. He also took out the painting and gave it to Cui Xie as a meeting ceremony that everyone in the world could not ask for--

Since that Shaodong lives in Cui's house, wouldn't Cui Xie be able to paint against Xiao Qiao every day?

He himself has such a brushstroke technique, and the prints printed by Ju'anzhai are similar to his painting methods, but not as smart as his paintings. Is it possible that there is actually his guidance in that painting...

Li Dongyang put away the school book, changed the topic stubbornly, and asked Cui Xie to do the topic he came up with two days ago. When it was getting late, Cui Xie left, he stood at the entrance of the study and sighed a few times, and said to his sons: "You brother Cui is really a romantic man..."

Li Zhaoxian looked at him wonderingly: "Where is Merry?" Looking at clothes, reading poems, reading songs...you can't see Merry from anywhere except a face!

Li Dongyang didn't explain to his son, letting him wonder, rolled up the manuscript and returned to the study.

In the next world, he rolled up the manuscript and tucked it into his sleeve, went directly to Yang Tinghe, and said frankly: "Brother Yu has a miscellaneous play script here. I need to ask Jiefu to write it down."

Yang Tinghe subconsciously asked, "Isn't it time to find Master Qiu for the northern song? My younger brother only writes southern songs..."

Li Dongyang smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "You and I are both in the imperial court. I am not looking for you. What will Master Xunqiu do? The difference between southern opera and northern opera is always the same. King Zhou Xian often mixes southern and northern operas. In one play, I asked Sheng to sing a northern song, but once I compose a southern song? Jiefu, you are so talented, how can it be hard for you to just change some of the tunes and words. Besides, I didn’t ask you to do it in plain air, here is a script ..."

He faded from his sleeve the "Wang Yao Niang's Pipa Ji", which was still rubbing against the big IP, and shook it in front of Yang Tinghe: "Aren't you good at "all the Fajia dialect"? In this play, it is written about a righteous woman. The story of sacrificing oneself to help the Jinyi Guards catch the thief is just right for you!"

The author has something to say: I want to find a master of Zaju and Sanqu in the Chenghua period, but he is either too young or in the south, so I can only do it with Mr. Yang
