Chapter 568 Little Lark
Princess Hua Jingyao's ceremony was very sensational. The princess Zheng Yu was present in person. Although she left after watching the ceremony due to her identity, this also made the ladies present very envious.
But soon, the ladies' attention shifted to the opera troupe.
"Which opera troupe was invited today? Do you know?"
"I haven't heard before that my grandmother celebrated her birthday this month and was worried that she would have a conflict with Princess Dingtao and the wedding ceremony. She couldn't book a Shuiyun class, but my family's manager went to inquire, and the Shuiyun class said she had not received any posts from the Princess's Mansion."
"It's not that the Skylark Class that just entered Beijing, I heard that their youngster is known as the first accent of Jiangnan."
"Listen to them brag. Any team from Jiangnan does not have the title of Jiangnan No. 1, in my opinion, this is all self-proclaimed."
At this moment, Chen Bi and Miss Luo Wu walked over.
In the past, these ladies would not take their sedentary seriously, nor did they like to pay attention to Miss Luo Wu. However, they rarely invited the ladies in the capital.
But today is different.
Now no one knows that Chen Bi and Princess Dingtao are very close. Although Miss Luo Wu is not close to Princess Dingtao, she is Miss Luo Si's real sister. Who is Miss Luo Si? That is the coroner specially used by Princess Dingtao.
A unique female coroner in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Miss Chen Er, Miss Luo Wu, come here quickly. Let's guess which opera troupe was invited today."
The ladies waved to them, their smiles as bright as flowers.
Chen Bi and Miss Luo Wu were the youngest among the people. When they heard the ladies talk about the opera troupe, they said, "It was not the opera troupe outside, but the princess's dowry team."
"What kind of dowry team?" Everyone explained.
Miss Luo Wu smiled and explained: "The princess likes the excitement. His Highness, worried that after the princess gets married, she will be bothered by the troupe every time, so she raised a troupe to serve as a dowry for the princess. This troupe has just arrived, and I heard that this is the first time that the troupe has officially started, and we all have good fortune."
Everyone looked at each other, Dad, mother, we also want a opera troupe to be a dowry!
A lady suddenly remembered and asked Miss Luo Wu: "I remember your family also has a opera troupe, is it a little Kun squad?"
"Well, my grandmother, my mother, and aunt, all love to listen to operas. I bought more than a dozen girls a few years ago and hired a master to teach them how to learn operas. In the past two years, I have finally become a little bit good and I sang well, but I still can't compare with the opera troupes outside. If you don't dislike me, come to my house to listen to operas another day."
"The princess's opera troupe is also taught by the little girl who bought it now? It won't take long to go on stage?" asked another lady.
Miss Luo Wu hurriedly said, "That's not that the princess is going to get married next year. How can she have time to teach opera? This team bought ready-made ones. By the way, have you heard of the Skylark Class? I just came from Jiangnan today?"
"The princess dowry opera troupe is the Skylark troupe, right? There is a very famous young actor?"
The ladies were just talking about the Skylark Class, and they are not unfamiliar with it.
"Well, that's right, it's the Skylark class. The little student you are talking about is called Xiao Skylark. He is only thirteen years old this year and is very beautiful."
At this time, a maid came over to call Miss Luo Wu and Shen Bi over, and the princess was looking for them.
The two of them said goodbye and hurried away with the maid.
When the two of them walked away, several ladies whispered: "The princess's dowry is actually the Skylark Class, but I heard that the Skylark Class is not the Kun Class. The princess is a dowry of a bunch of men, and the Yongguo Guild agrees?"
"Shh, whisper, there are ears in the partition!"
"Oh, have you ever met Duke Yong? I have seen him, he is so handsome, not only handsome, but also very proud. You said, can a person like him take this breath?"
"So what if I can't swallow it? Maybe all the men in the Skylark Class have become eunuchs?"
"Are you shy? How dare you say this?"
The ladies naturally didn't dare to continue talking, but they each had their own thoughts. After listening to the play, they must ask if the watery little lark was an eunuch.
However, the ladies were still disappointed, and they did not see the little skylark.
The Skylark Class is a real Skylark Class, but today the little Skylark is sick and has not appeared on stage. Another young actor takes the lead, and he looks equally handsome.
Hua Jingyao heard that the little sky leech was sick and frowned slightly. Yesterday she saw the little sky leech practicing with her throat and preparing for the first time today. Why did she get so sick that she can't go on stage after only one night?
"Please ask the imperial physician to show him. He is young, so don't lose the root cause."
Hua Jingyao asked the eldest maid Zixuan to do this matter personally, so as not to neglect the imperial physician when he heard that he was treating the actor.
Zixuan is a first-class maid and has long stopped doing these errands, but she went to see Xiao Yunqiu, so Zixuan rushed to go.
Not only her, but also all the maids of all sizes in the embroidery garden are willing.
The little Skylark is both beautiful and shy, and all the sisters want to tease him.
Half an hour later, Zixuan came back, and Hua Jingyao asked, "What disease is Xiaolanlake? Is it better?"
Zixuan smiled: "When the princess said, Xiao Yunque felt cold and had a sore throat and cough. The imperial doctor saw it and said it was nothing serious and had prescribed medicine. He asked him to rest for a few days and not use his throat."
"Well, that's good. Go and get some pears and loquats and have them send them to him."
Zixuan agreed with a smile and went down to order the eunuch.
After seeing off all the guests, Hua Jingyao asked Ziwei to remove the fake bun on her head, along with a large pile of hairpins and rings.
Hua Jingyao shook her sore neck, looked at the heavy fake bun, and asked Ziwei: "You said that if this was replaced by my own real hair, would it be lighter?"
Ziwei kept laughing, Hua Jingyao sighed and asked and answered: "I will never grow so much hair in my life."
The maids used a lot of folk remedies to wash her hair and apply scalp, but for several years, Miss Hua's hair was still not thick enough.
Speaking of fake buns, Hua Jingyao remembered the ones used by the actresses on the stage, which were not as good as her fake buns.
Stage?
She remembered the little Skylark.
"Call Zixuan."
Zixuan walked in quickly: "Princess, are you looking for me?"
"Tell me, what's going on with the little Skylark?"
During the day, Hua Jingyao did not ask in detail, but later she got busy and completely forgot about it. If it weren't for the fake bun, she would have thrown this matter out of the sky.
"Princess, I didn't tell the truth at that time. Even if you don't call me, I will come to see you."
"Tell me, what's the truth?"
"Little Skylark is not sick. He was beaten with a bruised nose and swollen eyes, and his eyes were congested. He was almost blinded. Eunuch Cui begged me to drag you over and over again and again, and he told you that today is your big day, so that an actor would disturb your elegant pleasure."
Eunuch Cui was originally the eunuch who was in charge of the seal of the bell and drums. After leaving the palace this year, he took the errands of the Princess's Mansion and took charge of the opera troupe.
