Chapter 552 - 552: Lucky



The protagonist of Double Beauties seemed to be the landlord, but it was actually his main wife and concubine.

The sisters pretended to be at odds on the surface. Every day, they would use various methods to fight for favor, resulting in humorous situations. In fact, the two of them had a good relationship and often complained in private about the landlord, saying that he was old and conceited.

However, the landlord did not suspect anything. He even felt that he was super powerful.

Because there were many interesting memes added to the lines, coupled with the actors’ good performance, the laughter was very dense. The audience below the stage could not stop laughing.

Even Yu Pingping, who had already seen the rehearsal, could not help but laugh.

She complained to Yu Niaoniao as she smiled.

“This landlord is too stupid. They are just coaxing him for fun, but he actually believed them. Hahaha!”

Yu Niaoniao also smiled. “He’s quite stupid.”

Everyone present was laughing, except for two people who did not react.

One of them was Xiao Juan. He was silent the entire time.

Everyone watching the show thought that this was just a show. Only he and Niaoniao knew that these were all things that had really happened.

If everyone knew that the landlord who was mocked by everyone was the current emperor, the scene would be unimaginable.

The other was Shen Zhuo.

Tonight was New Year’s Eve, and there was also a banquet in the palace.

However, because the emperor was lying in bed and the Empress Dowager Deng was old and weak, and Empress Wen liked peace, the three big bosses only showed up at the banquet and left.

Hence, this year’s New Year’s Eve banquet ended especially early.

Seeing that it was still early, Shen Zhuo changed into the clothes of ordinary people and brought a few followers out of the palace to shop.

Unexpectedly, just as he arrived at the temple fair, he bumped into the stage performing “Double Beauties”.

At first, he could still smile along with the content of the scene. When the concubine gave birth to a twin son and died in childbirth, the smile on his face gradually faded.

One of the twins died, and the other was hidden by his first wife and raised as the eldest son.

The more Shen Zhuo watched, the colder his expression became.

In the end, there was only coldness in his eyes.

“Go and find out who’s performing on stage.”

“Yes.”

The follower behind him immediately left and returned after a long time.

“Young Master, they’re from Qirui Garden.”

Shen Zhuo said expressionlessly, “Qirui Garden again.”

He knew that Qirui Garden was established by Yu Niaoniao. As one of the people who knew about the case of Imperial Concubine Yue, she naturally knew his true background.

She must have written the story between Imperial Concubine Yue and Empress Wen into a play.

This was her revenge and also her warning.

She was warning him and Empress Wen that she had something on them and told them to be careful!

If it were anyone else who did this, Shen Zhuo would definitely not let them off.

However, the other party just had to be Yu Niaoniao.

Shen Zhuo closed his eyes and asked silently in his heart, “Niaoniao, you clearly know that I can’t do it to you. Why do you still provoke me again and again?”

Shen Zhuo was no longer in the mood to watch what else was going on on stage. He turned around and left the City God Temple with a dark expression.

As a show on stage, “Double Beauties” received enthusiastic applause from the commoners.

Among them, the people from the Justice Department shouted the loudest.

Meng Xizhou and Yan Nanguan were afraid that the atmosphere would not be lively enough, so they clapped so hard that their hands turned red.

From the scene of the audience cheering loudly, it was obvious that the performance of “Double Beautiesl” was very successful.

This made Liu Qirui very happy.

He had even begun to plan. He was prepared to expand the script of “Double Beauties” when he returned and turn it into a big show similar to “Duke Lang in Liaodong”. If nothing went wrong, this new drama would make their Qirui Garden popular again.

Seeing this, the other theaters were disappointed and nervous.

Originally, when they saw that Qirui Garden was the first to go on stage, they thought that Chery Garden would perform abnormally under too much pressure. Unexpectedly, not only did they stabilize their performance, but they also won the love of the audience with their interesting new script.

With “Double Beauties” ahead of them, the commoners’ expectations of tonight’s temple fair were raised greatly.

Once the following program did not meet their expectations, it would be equivalent to telling the entire Imperial Capital that their theater was inferior to Qirui Garden.

Regarding this, the troupe leaders of the various theaters were uneasy and under immense pressure.

In order not to appear especially lousy, the drama class did not dare to hold back anymore. They all used their best skills. The performances on the stage were each more hardworking than the last.

Therefore, the commoners below the stage were dazzled and shouted in satisfaction.

In the past, during the new year, they had also come to visit the temple fair, but no temple fair had been as exciting as tonight.

Even Yu Pingping was stunned.

“What’s wrong with them? All the celebrities in the various theaters are out. It’s usually difficult to get a ticket for their shows. They actually can watch them

tonight without buying tickets.”

Meng Xizhou sighed. “Is this something we can see without spending money?”

Yu Niaoniao had never attended the temple fair in the Imperial Capital before.

She did not know what programs were performed at the temple fair in the past. She thought that it was about the same every year.

Hearing the sighs of the surrounding people, Yu Niaoniao realized that the standard of the temple fair tonight seemed to be higher than those in previous years.

She was glad to see it.

After the last performance ended, they began to evaluate all the programs.

Yu Niaoniao originally thought that it was the audience at the event location voting. Only now did she know that it was a few famous scholars and officials discussing the final ranking.

She wondered what was going on. They discussed for a long time before ending.

As expected, Qirui Garden won first place.

Everyone in Qirui Garden was naturally overjoyed. Liu Qirui went on stage on behalf of Qirui Garden and took the plaque for first place. There was thunderous applause from the audience.

At this moment, Liu Qirui was excited.

Back then, he fell from the peak of his career and fell into the mud, almost in despair.

He thought that his acting career would be cut off and there would be no hope of revival in the future.

But now, he, Liu Qirui, had made a comeback!

All the hard work and sweat he had put in had been repaid tonight.

At this moment, he was extremely glad.

He was glad that he had persisted and met the Princess Consort of Lang County.

After leaving the stage, Liu Qirui found Yu Niaoniao and said sincerely.

“Thank you.”

Yu Niaoniao smiled. “It’s getting late. You should rest. Those who should accompany their families should accompany them. Tomorrow will be the annual leave and we will reopen for the Shangyuan Festival.”

Liu Qirui brought everyone to Qirui Garden.

Yu Niaoniao was a little hungry and planned to find a place to eat with Xiao Juan.

When the two of them walked to the river , they saw many people putting on river lamps. Many river lamps floated on the river, looking like a galaxy from afar.

There was still a small boat slowly moving forward on the river. The boatman shook the paddle hard and pushed the small boat forward.

At this moment, the boatman suddenly exclaimed.

“There’s a dead person!”
