After leaving the Qinzheng Hall, Alibai breathed a sigh of relief.
It went so smoothly, the most critical part had been solved, so there was nothing to be nervous about.
Fang Zhengyi looked at him curiously and asked, "Second Prince, you seem very nervous."
Ali Bai laughed dryly: "This... I'm sorry to make you laugh, Lord Fang. This is the first time I've gone out so far, and I'm shouldering an important mission. I'm indeed a little nervous."
"I am not good at speaking."
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's a rare opportunity for you to come out for fun. I'll take you on a tour of the capital. We can have fun for ten days or half a month before we go back."
Ten days or half a month? That's a long time.
Ali Bai shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Fang, but forget about playing. I don't really like playing. In fact, I am more anxious..."
"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet." Fang Zhengyi interrupted him.
“….”
"As for the trade, it doesn't matter if it's one day earlier or later. I'm sure your emperor won't blame me. How can a person not have some hobbies? Tell me, do you like eating, watching plays, or women? What do you want? I'll arrange it for you."
How can this person be so rude and disrespectful? He doesn't seem like the smart person the national teacher said he would be...
Ali Bai was puzzled, but seeing Fang Zheng's insistence, he could only helplessly say, "On weekdays, I like to read some books, watch some plays, etc."
"What book, what play, I'll arrange it for you."
"Sir, I'm sorry to tell you that these are all strange stories I bought from Jingguo. I wonder if Sir Fang has ever heard of Journey to the West?"
Yo? I love reading novels!
Fang Zheng showed surprise and whispered, "You also like to read Journey to the West? I'm telling you, I wrote this book, so don't spread it around... We officials here are all serious, and if others knew about it, it would have an impact on my reputation."
"Ah!?" Alibai was surprised. "Really? But I saw the author on the cover is Liu Chengen?"
"That's one of my pen names. I wonder which character the Second Prince likes. I've already written the outline for the sequel to Journey to the West, so I'd like to hear Second Prince's opinion so I can make some revisions."
Ali Bai was a little excited. He didn't expect that Journey to the West was actually written by Fang Zhengyi. This is really... fate.
"Yes... Of course I like Sun Wukong, a hero with unparalleled strength!"
Fang Zhengyi gave a thumbs up and said, "Second Prince is wise. There is a saying among the people of 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 and is full of passion!"
Alibai's face began to turn red, and Fangzheng was delighted.
Isn't this a pure ancient two-spined ape? The conversation started!
"After the Kingdom of Women in Journey to the West..."
"Let's not talk about Journey to the West for now. You can buy the book and read it slowly. What kind of drama does the Second Prince like to watch in the Kingdom of Jin? I'll take you to relax now."
"Fighting wolves, I wonder if Lord Fang has ever heard of it?"
"What!?" Fang Zheng scratched his ear.
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 came back from Dajing a few years ago."
"We need to make more good movies for the people to watch, so that they can see the unity of the country and the whole nation."
"The story is about a pack of wolves attacking civilians, and our country sending cavalry to save the people from danger."
"Master Paba is indeed amazing." Fang Zhengyi clapped his hands vigorously.
When Pa Ba first came to Dajing, he took a shower and watched a show with him. This bastard took it to heart just because I said something casually!
"Apart from fighting wolves, is there anything else? We don't have this theme in Dajing."
"Basically all of them are Wolf Fighting. Oh, and Wolf Fighting II."
"Don't you get tired of watching this all the time?"
"Not boring. From high officials to common people, everyone loves to watch it every day. But there is nothing else to watch besides this. The national teacher doesn't write scripts anymore."
Look at the pitiful people of the Jin Dynasty. Their spiritual life is so lacking.
Fang Zhengyi put his arm around Ali Bai's shoulders and said, "Let's go! What's the point of watching that stuff every day? I'll take you to see my Dajing's good show!"
Alibai was so tense by this sudden move.
However, Fang Zhengyi acted so heroically that he was too embarrassed to push him away, so he could only walk out without being forced.
"Master Fang, please slow down..."
......
Inside the Banshanfang stage.
It was already late in the evening. There were more than a dozen rows of chairs densely packed below the stage, and the people were staring at the stage with great energy.
Fang Zhengyi and Alibai sat in the first row.
Two men and one woman were performing on the stage with great emotion. A handsome man was pushing a broken bicycle with a look of misery on his face.
A man and a woman opposite were driving a group of BMWs. The woman cried out with tears in her eyes:
"I would rather cry on a BMW than laugh on a bicycle!"
Then she rode off the stage with the man on a tall horse, and then the handsome man's inner monologue...
Alibai sat in the audience, his hands tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, his chest heaving.
Fang Zhengyi had been observing him quietly.
"Oh! This girl is so vain and hateful!" Alibai angrily slapped the armrest.
Fang Zhengyi leaned over to him and whispered, "Second Prince, the following part is interesting. In fact, the woman was suffering from a terminal illness and deliberately used this as an excuse to leave her beloved. Later, the man discovered the truth through his friends and bravely redeemed his love. In the end, the heroine cured her terminal illness by riding a Taoyuan brand bicycle, and the two lived a happy life together."
Alibai suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and felt very uncomfortable.
Why are you telling me this? It looks so exciting!
