Chapter 125: Eunuch Wei came to us

The literati and doctors in the late Ming Dynasty could not say that they were incapable, they could only say that their abilities were useless. Specifically for Ruan Dacheng, Eunuch Wei hoped that the other party could use his strengths to contribute to national construction, rather than leaving literary and artistic works for future generations, but not making any contribution to national affairs.

This is also the reason why my father-in-law was grateful to Ruan Dacheng for his loyalty and righteousness, so he took special care of it, which was not what Ruan Dacheng thought.

In history, Ruan Dacheng heard that Ma Shiying died in Taihu Lake and then jumped off a cliff and committed suicide. After his death, he was killed by the Qing army and hanged outside Hangzhou City for three days. It is said that he was loyal and righteous. However, such a loyal and righteous person was arranged into a traitor, which is also a tragedy in history.

Objectively speaking, Ruan Dacheng's performance in the Tianqi and Chongzhen dynasties should be considered as lacking in character and his ruling talent was very limited, but this guy is quite talented and is good at lyrics and music, leaving a lot of valuable artistic wealth for later generations.

Therefore, Eunuch Wei hoped that Ruan Dacheng would give full play to his literary and artistic expertise, compile operas, compose music and do some literary and artistic creations for the Imperial Army. In the future, if conditions permit, Ruan Dacheng could directly organize some large-scale activities. Just like the national teacher in later generations, he would create some inspiring scenes to inspire generations of the imperial people to move forward bravely.

Eunuch Wei believed that for Huang Ming and for the Han people, literary and artistic work is the soul of this country and this nation. Looking at the past and present, literary and artistic work is not only to enrich folk stories and enrich people's lives, but also to carry records of history and praise of heroes.

This role has always been ignored in the current development of the Huangming society. Currently, the market is filled with erotic novels such as Jin and Mei. Although this is a typical manifestation of the small-townization caused by high economic development and a manifestation of openness and freedom of the people, these manifestations are hidden in the great crisis.

Eunuch Wei hopes that literary and artistic work should be taken seriously and carried forward in his hands. He hopes that more literary and artistic workers from the new era can emerge, create some literary and artistic works of the new era, guide and support the people of Huangming to become rich, strong, go international, and move towards the future.

Although literary and artistic work and publicity work are two different things, they are essentially interoperable. Literature and art are responsible for publicity work, and publicity work depends on literature and art, and both are indispensable.

Therefore, Ruan Dacheng received a notice to accompany Eunuch Wei to attend the cultural evening party celebrating the first anniversary of the establishment of the Maritime Special Administrative Region. Also receiving the notice were Huang Zunsu and Tu Yizhen.

The literary party celebrating the first anniversary of the establishment of the Maritime Special Administrators' Maritime Organs, Jiangnan Town Governors' Yamen, and the Song and Dance Team of the Emperor's Personal Army of the Ming Dynasty.

On that day, eunuchs above the imperial courts, officials above the 100 households, clerks, base camp staff, main leaders of the chambers of commerce in the special zone, representatives of the people, representatives of craftsmen, and 1,200 imperial officers and soldiers watched the party together.

The attending the evening were also the Imperial Horse Supervisor, the Inner Office Supervisor, the Shangyi Supervisor, the Washing Clothing Bureau, the Military Bureau, the Baochao Branch, the Huntang Branch, the Xixin Branch, the Bell and Drum Branch, the Imperial Supervisor, the Shangshen Supervisor, the Zhidian Supervisor, the Silver Bureau, the Scarf and Hat Bureau, the Needle Industry Bureau, the Inner Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, the Wine and Vinegar and Dough Bureau, the Siyuan Bureau, and the Main Heads of the Shangbao Supervisor in the Special Administrative Region.

The evening party was held in the People's Building of Zhongzheng Cafeteria.

The main purpose of holding this evening party is that Eunuch Wei hopes that everyone can review the achievements made in the past year of establishment of the Maritime Special Economic Zone, so as to play an inspiring role and provide a good public opinion environment for the ongoing joint forces of the three provinces.

The auditorium of the People's Building has been newly arranged, with bright lights and red flags waving.

A banner was hung high on the second floor viewing platform, which read "Finally unite around His Majesty the Emperor, hold up the imperial flag high, and march towards the sea under the leadership of the Ming Dynasty Emperor's army headed by Eunuch Wei!"

In the center of the stage, the two words "Da Ming" were hung with the name "Da Ming" in the imperial Ming Dynasty, and below the "Da Ming" were the words "Wanli" of the current emperor with a slightly smaller font.

In front of the stage, 242 pots of flowers are lined up in sequence, symbolizing that it has been 242 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. On both sides of the stage are 42 lieutenants in brocade clothes dressed in flying fish uniforms. They are majestic, with their chests raised and their knives, and their eyes are straight ahead, symbolizing that His Majesty, the Emperor, ascended the throne for 42 years.

At the third hour of You, amid the cheerful music of the Imperial Army Band, Eunuch Wei and other major officials of the Special Administrative Region entered the auditorium and shook hands cordially with representatives of the North and South Chamber of Commerce present to contribute to the commercial prosperity of the Special Administrative Region and paid high respects to them. The audience immediately burst into warm applause.

"Thank you for your hard work, sleep with me at night."

When shook hands with Wang Yue'e, the head of the Taizhou Chamber of Commerce, Eunuch Wei whispered in the other party's ear.

"Sit, everyone, let's sit down. We invite everyone to watch the art performance, not to ask everyone to suffer." Eunuch Wei's humor caused relaxed laughter from the officials and representatives present.

Afterwards, the party kicked off with the song and dance "Long Live the Ming Dynasty" organized by the Imperial Army Art Troupe organized by the Bell and Drums.

"Long Live, Ming Dynasty" combines the popular zaju performances and the literary and artistic innovative methods proposed by Eunuch Wei, and presents the glorious past of our Emperor Ming since the founding of Taizu to the present.

After the performance, Eunuch Wei took the lead in standing up and shouted a heartfelt voice to the north: "Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live Your Majesty!"

More than a thousand spectators present shouted together, which was a cry from the bottom of their hearts, and that was the most sincere cry in the world!

"This picture must be drawn!"

The head of the literary and artistic evening party, Zhang Hua, the Jiangnan Town Guard, excitedly ordered the two painters around him.

The evening party continued, and the subsequent programs included "Long Live the Emperor", "Song of the Battlefield", "Eunuch Wei Comes to Us", "Love in Thousands of Water and Mountains", etc. Most of the performers came from the Imperial Army Song and Dance Troupe, and a small number came from brothels in various parts of the south of the Yangtze River, among which there were flower signs invited from the Qinhuai River, the southern capital.

"Jizhi, how do you watch these shows?"

“It’s OK.”

Ruan Dacheng was unwilling to answer Eunuch Wei's question against his conscience. In his opinion, these singing and dancing programs were of no interest at all.

"We know what Jizhi is thinking. Haha, we have a literary and artistic program. Let's watch it. It's time for the spring and snow to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to

Eunuch Wei turned his head and continued to watch the show. How to change Ruan Dacheng's ideas and how to bring out his specialties is a water mill job.

On the one hand, Eunuch Wei hopes that Ruan Dacheng can actively participate in the literary and artistic work of the new era, but on the other hand, he does not want Ruan Dacheng to regard opera as the only way to work in literary and artistic work.

Only by combining with each other is the kingly way.

"Dad, the next show is the top card invited by my son from Qinhuai River to perform." Zhao Baole, who was sitting behind Eunuch Wei, leaned forward and attached himself to his adoptive father's chair with a flattering smile.

After hearing what Zhao Baole said, some nearby officials and generals suddenly felt strangely pornographic on their faces, especially those of Huang Bensu and other literati.

"Oh, this is good, this is good."

Eunuch Wei knew what his subordinates were thinking, so he just wanted to invite a ** person to sing on such a formal occasion a bit inappropriate?

The old man smiled happily, raised his right hand and said to his subordinates who had different faces around him: "Qinhuai River is not a low-key thing to make a living, but they also rely on their abilities to make a living. For example, this top girl, can she be the top girl without any ability? So, don't underestimate others, look down on others, and don't think about it, just listen to others singing quietly."

"Also, you must remember that any transaction determined by the market supply and demand relationship will not be condemned by morality as long as it does not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty."

Eunuch Wei’s words are somewhat profound, which has attracted many people to think about what the market supply and demand relationship is. This statement does not seem to have been seen in Eunuch Wei’s collection of essays and speeches.

I have to study the market supply and demand relationship well. I will mention it again next time my father-in-law will be able to say a few words. Tu Yizhen thought so.

On the stage, the leading brand of Qingya Tower in Qinhuai River, Lin, was sung by Eunuch Wei, who was personally ordered by Eunuch Wei for the Royal Army Song and Dance Troupe to be the "Singing a Mountain Song for My Father-in-law" on the stage. This song is based on a Guangxi mountain song. It combines the hard-working process and spirit of Eunuch Wei to start a business, and fully displays the selfless image of Eunuch Wei's kindness and loving the people and the country and the people. It also vividly expresses the deep love between the people and the Royal Army officers and soldiers for Eunuch Wei, which made the audience applaud.

After the singing, warm applause came from the venue again.

At the end of the evening party, "Song of the Land of Imperial Path" sung by 100 girls from the singing and dancing troupe and 200 officers and soldiers of the Second Brigade of the Imperial Army. In the interpretation of male and female voices, the audience was full of passion.

The entire evening party lasted for more than an hour. After the end, Eunuch Wei led the officials of the two major yamen and the generals of the Imperial Army to the stage and extended condolences to the literary and artistic workers participating in the performance.

When we walked to the performer who sang "Sing a Mountain Song for Eunuch Wei", Eunuch Wei stopped, took the other person's hand affectionately, and said happily: "You sang very well just now, and our family is very happy to listen."

Miss Lin, who is in her twenties, is very beautiful and is a person in the romantic field, so she knows how to show off.

The more I looked at it, the more I liked it, and I felt a little reluctant to let go of the other person's hand. Finally, for the sake of the image, I had no choice but to let go of Miss Lin's hand, but when I loosened it, my right index finger gently rubbed the palm of Miss Lin's palm, and my eyes were extremely hot.

This scared Miss Lin. She collected money to perform, but she didn't say she had to sleep with a eunuch. If she was a normal official, she would accompany her, but this person was a eunuch, so how did she ask her to accompany her?

There are eunuchs who have been there in the Qinhuai River, but those girls who have accompanied them say that those eunuchs are very dying. The more official the eunuchs are, the more they are, they will die. When they get crazy, they stabbed their fists in, which scares people to death.

Miss Lin finally tried hard to become the top player. It was less than half a year and she didn't dare to ruin her body, so her little heart was really thumping.

Fortunately, Eunuch Wei is still a good match. He is good at this girl Lin or prostitute, but the other party's identity is destined to be unable to reveal the secrets of his body, so he teased him a little.

The next day, Huang Zunsu and Tu Yizhen received instructions from the base camp, and ordered them to write a manuscript to celebrate the first anniversary of the establishment of the Special Administrative Region, and publish it as the first draft after the Huangming Daily was launched.

Huang and Tu did not dare to neglect, so they quickly picked up the pen and wrote it quickly, but they wrote four manuscripts in succession and were beaten back by Eunuch Wei, saying that the writing was not good enough.

In addition, Eunuch Wei said that the Huangming Daily is aimed at the people of the Emperor Ming Dynasty, so the article cannot be written in a simple and straightforward manner, so that the literate one can understand, and the illiterate one can understand.

"If you want to be colloquial, you can write whatever the people say, well, let's read it, just call it vernacular."

Eunuch Wei proposed the concept of vernacular for the first time.

As a scholar, he is smart and has no idea why the manuscript was passed before. Now that he knows the reason, Huang Zunsu and Tu Yizhen naturally correct it immediately.

After repeated revisions, Tu Yizhen's manuscript was finally approved by Eunuch Wei, because Tu's manuscript was completely in line with Eunuch Wei's requirements, and his manuscript was named "Great Change".

On the day the manuscript was decided, Eunuch Wei secretly boarded the shipowner Ya, without the knowledge of most people in the SAR, and his destination was Dinghaiwei, Zhejiang.
