Chapter 550 - 550: Making a Mountain Out of a Molehill
Xiao Juan heard that Qirui Garden had almost been sealed.
Although the seal was finally removed by the Imperial Capital, Yu Niaoniao was forced to accept the conditions for changing the show.
Actually, he didn’t care if the show was changed. In any case, he had already gotten over it. No matter what others thought of him, as long as Niaoniao could understand him, it was enough.
He was worried about Niaoniao.
She had put in a lot of effort to prepare for Duke Lang in Liaodong. Back then, everyone had advised her to change the protagonist, but she refused to compromise.
Now that she had no choice but to agree to change the show, this must be a huge blow to her.
When he was sad, she accompanied him.
Now that she was in trouble, he naturally had to be with her.
Xiao Juan temporarily put down his work and left the Justice Department.
He was worried and wanted to rush back to keep her company as soon as possible, but he had promised her yesterday that he could not ride a horse before his wound healed, so he could only choose to ride on a carriage, which was slower.
When he passed by a candied plum shop, he got the carriage to stop and personally got out to buy two large boxes of candied plums.
When he carried the heavy candied plums into Langjun Imperial Palace, Granny Xiu Yan was very surprised.
“Why is Your Highness here so early today?”
Xiao Juan asked, “I came back to see Niaoniao. Where is she?”
Granny Xiu Yan said, “The Princess Consort is in the study.”
Before walking into the study, Xiao Juan imagined many scenes, such as Nianiao smashing things to vent her depression, curling up in the corner to sulk alone, or silently crying at something…
In short, Niaoniao would definitely not be in a good state.
However, when he pushed open the door and walked into the study, he saw the scene of her lying on the desk and writing furiously.
She was so engrossed in writing that she didn’t even notice anyone coming in.
Until Xiao Juan called her.
“Niaoniao. ”
Only then did Yu Niaoniao look up.
She looked a little confused and surprised.
However, there was no anger or sadness.
Xiao Juan was surprised by this. “Aren’t you sad?”
Yu Niaoniao was puzzled. “I’m alive and well. What’s there to be sad about?” “But I heard that Qirui Garden was almost sealed by the Imperial Capital. You were even forced to accept the conditions to change the show.”
Yu Niaoniao was enlightened. “You’re talking about this? It’s not a big deal.
Isn’t it just a matter of changing the name? I’ve already changed it.”
Seeing that she was so open-minded, Xiao Juan doubted his life for a moment.
Could it be that he was making a mountain out of a molehill?
Yu Niaoniao asked, “What are you carrying?
Xiao Juan placed the box on the desk. “These the candied plums I bought for you.”
Originally, he wanted her to eat something sweet to improve her mood, but from Niaoniao’s reaction, there was no need.
She was in a good mood without having eaten candied plums.
Yu Niaoniao was overjoyed. ‘Wow! I’m a little hungry. Baby, you’re so considerate.”
She opened the box, picked up a plum, put it in her mouth, and ate it with relish.
Xiao Juan looked at the pen and paper in front of her and asked.
“What are you writing?
As Yu Niaoniao ate, she said, “There’s a temple fair in the city during the new year. Our Qirui Garden has to participate. I have to write a new script.”
Xiao Juan asked, “Can I see it?”
Yu Niaoniao waved her hand and said heroically, “We’re all family. Don’t stand on ceremony. Take a look.”
Xiao Juan smiled silently.
He picked up the paper and flipped through it.
Because of the limited time, Yu Niaoniao did not draw this time. Instead, she used words to express the story. At the moment, she had only written the outline of the story. The details had to be refined.
In addition, she also drew a few important scenes in the game in the form of a simple brush stroke.
The scenes were vivid and interesting. The protagonists were also written interestingly by her. It was the kind of feeling that made people unable to help but laugh. This kind of comedy was indeed very suitable to watch during the new year.
The story revolved around a landlord’s house.
The master of the landlord married a pair of sisters. The elder sister was his wife, and the younger sister was a concubine.
The Old Master thought that he was enjoying the blessings of everyone, but little did he know that the sisters were complaining about him in their hearts. The content of these complaints would be presented through the opera, and every sentence would make people laugh.
Unfortunately, his concubine was not lucky and unfortunately died in childbirth. At the same time, his first wife successfully gave birth to a son.
Not long after, Old Master took in a new beautiful concubine and fathered a son.
The entire family was in a tizzy.
Old Master’s sons met with accidents one after another. In the end, only his wife’s son was still fine.
He had no choice but to hand over all his assets to his legitimate son.
It was not until he was about to die that the main wife told him the truth. It turned out that her biological son had died long ago. Her current son was actually born by her sister.
Old Master was so angry that he kicked his legs and died on the spot.
Outsiders did not think anything of this story, but Xiao Juan immediately sensed something amiss and asked.
“Your story is about Empress Wen and the Crown Prince?”
The protagonists in the story were ordinary farmers. They were worlds apart from the royal family. Normal people would not associate them with the empress and the crown prince.
However, Xiao Juan was different. Back then, he was the one who investigated the Moon Concubine case thoroughly. He knew very well the roles of Empress Wen and the Crown Prince.
The truth that had not been presented in the dossier was all written in this story.
Yu Niaoniao admitted frankly.
“‘rnars ngnt.’
Xiao Juan frowned and disagreed.
“You don’t have to do this. It’s too risky.”
Yu Niaoniao picked up another date and said slowly.
“They provoked me first.
Everyone could clearly get along peacefully, but they wanted to pretend to take credit for it.
Not only that, but Shen Zhuo even instigated the emperor to punish you. I can’t take this lying down.
Even if I can’t hit them, I have to disgust them.
I want them to understand that we are not pushovers and will not be controlled by them.
If we’re really forced into a corner, I’ll do anything.”
With that, she threw the date into her mouth and bit down hard. She actually looked a little fierce.
Xiao Juan’s heart was indeed soft.
So she was doing all this to avenge him.
Xiao Juan put down the paper. “Since you’ve made up your mind, do it.”
No matter how Empress Wen and the Crown Prince dealt with them in the future, he would take care of them and not let Niaoniao be harmed.
Qirui Garden reopened the next day.
The customers who had bought tickets swarmed over. When they entered the lobby, they realized that there was an additional sign beside the stage with two lines of words on it.
Immediately, someone who could read read it.
“This story is purely fiction. If there’s a similarity, it’s purely a coincidence.
Note, don’t talk about state affairs!”
No one understood what this meant.
When the curtain on the stage slowly pulled open, the protagonist went on stage and began to perform. The original Prince Lang became Prince Zixu, and the original Liaodong County became Wuyou County.
It was all nonsense.
Coupled with the words on the sign about not talking about state affairs and the rumors that Cherry Garden had almost been sealed yesterday,
How could everyone not understand?
Wasn’t this because someone was anxious and forced him to change his scene, not wanting others to know the truth!
Initially, some people were skeptical about the content described in the show.
In this way, they completely believed that the truth was described in the show..
