Chapter 251 Royal Theater
When she woke up in the morning, the sound of rain was still in Yu Jiuer's ears, and a sense of loss arose in her heart.
She bargained with the Dragon King in her dream all night. Even Zhou Gong couldn't bear it anymore, but the damn old Dragon King still wouldn't give in. What should she do?
"You should rest well at home first. After the king's morning court session, I will find another place for you to continue your performance."
"Yeah!" Yu Jiuer nodded reluctantly.
She knew very well that where could she find a sheltered venue that could accommodate thousands of people for a performance on a rainy day?
Without performances, what else can attract people to go out in the rain?
Yu Jiuer couldn't sit still at home, so she asked Yingying to prepare the horse and go to the square to take a look.
After getting off the carriage and holding up an umbrella, Yu Jiuer saw that the workers hired by Yuemanxilou were helping them dismantle the high platform used for the Flying Fairies performance.
There were vaguely a few women wearing straw raincoats standing nearby and watching.
Seeing Yu Jiuer coming over, they hurried forward and said, "Greetings, Concubine Yu! Are you still setting up a stall to sign autographs today?"
"Put it up! But the rain is getting heavier, I have to find a place that is sheltered from the wind and rain to put the petition up..." Yu Jiuer's face was full of anxiety.
Someone wanted to sign, and she wanted to ask Shadow to immediately take that person to Prince Jing's mansion to sign, but this was not decent, and if the emperor knew about it, he would definitely nag her again.
She thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go to Linglong Pavilion and wait for me first. I'll take the petition to Linglong Pavilion later..."
Before Yu Jiu'er finished speaking, a voice rang out beside her: "How can Linglong Pavilion be as spacious as Sunset Restaurant? If Concubine Yu doesn't mind, you can use the stage of Sunset Restaurant as you like!"
As soon as she finished speaking, an old man walked up to her and bowed to her.
Yu Jiuer recognized the man as the owner of Sunset Restaurant.
"Thank you, boss!" She smiled. "Sunset Restaurant is indeed spacious. The three floors can accommodate two to three hundred people to watch a show at the same time. Thank you for your timely help, boss!"
"I don't deserve it! Everyone in the capital already knows about Concubine Yu's deeds. I admire her and I am happy to be able to do my bit to help her!"
At this time, another voice came from behind Yu Jiuer: "Concubine Yu, I am the owner of the Jinwu Theater. We have a large stage that can accommodate more people than the Sunset Restaurant. Do you want to go and have a look? It's free for you to use!"
Following the voice, a thin man appeared in front of Yu Jiuer and bowed to her.
Yu Jiuer's eyes lit up: "Great! Thank you for your generous help! Shopkeeper, then..."
The owner of Sunset Restaurant waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, just pick the one with the most space!"
"Since Jinwu Theater is here, my little place will not embarrass itself! I thought I could get some credit and watch a thrilling play!" A self-deprecating voice was heard from the crowd.
Yu Jiuer then realized that she was surrounded by people, including women who came to ask for her autographs and common people who came to provide her with a place to perform under the rain.
She was touched and resisted the urge to cry. She said to everyone: "Thank you for supporting me! You are so thoughtful! I..."
"My Lady Concubine, the prince asked me to come and inform you that he has found a venue for you. It's in the Royal Theater. Please get ready quickly!" A Jinyiwei hurried towards her.
The owner of Sunset Restaurant was surprised: "Royal Theater? That is only open on important festivals or to entertain foreign envoys!"
The people around were instantly furious:
"The Royal Theater! This, this is something that we ordinary people can enter? This is not a trick to fool us, right?"
"Oh my god! I can't even dream of going to the Royal Theater and listening to a play! Did I hear that correctly?"
"Look at the Jinyiwei brother nodding his head all the time, there's no mistake! You women are blessed!"
"How can this be tolerated? I have to hurry and inform the others. Because of the rain, many people in the village have already given up the idea of coming to sign. This time, even if the sky is raining, I have to come!"
......
Even Yu Jiuer was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Did the emperor really agree to open the Royal Theater and let me set up a stall?"
After she said this, she suddenly felt that her use of the word "setting up a stall" was a blasphemy to the Royal Theater?
The emperor cherishes that high-end and luxurious place as if it were something special.
She had only gone there once, when her sons were added to the family tree and sacrificial ceremonies were held.
Go there to set up a stall and petition?
She could never have imagined it in her dreams!
only......
If she fails to gather enough 100,000 people to petition in such a place, she will be disgraced in the whole northwest!
The Royal Guard replied meticulously, "It is absolutely true. The prince has already sent people to stand guard. Madam Concubine, just take the petition and let the opera troupe and the dance troupe perform!"
Yu Jiuer asked again: "How many days did the emperor agree to let us use it?"
"The prince didn't say, but according to the prince's arrangement, it seems to be today?"
Yu Jiuer curled her lips and thought to herself: The old emperor is still as stingy as ever!
Jun Mo must have put a lot of thought into getting the right to use the Royal Theater, and she couldn't waste it!
She would try it for a day first. If the effect was good, she would go all out and requisition it for three days.
Anyway, it would be difficult to carry out promotion in other state capitals on a rainy day. Since she had used it, she had to make full use of it.
The emperor has already given everything, so he shouldn’t mind giving him two more days, right?
After figuring it out, Yu Jiuer smiled like a little fox and ordered, "Okay! Post a notice immediately and ask the women who come here to sign to go to the Royal Theater instead. It would be best if you arrange for a few people to stand here and explain things clearly to the people!"
After saying that, he turned around and ordered Shadow: "Send someone to Lingyun Opera Troupe and Yuemanxilou to inform them that they will perform at the Royal Theater today!
Go and inform the brothers in the Imperial Guards, have them beat drums and gongs, and spread the word all over the streets. The petition and performance will be waiting for everyone at the Royal Theater!"
Seeing the faces of the women around her flushed with excitement, Yu Jiuer waved her hand and said to them, "Let's go! Let's go to the Royal Theater!"
But as soon as she got on the carriage, Yu Jiuer saw Liu Qingyun and a group of people running towards her in a hurry.
Yu Jiuer came down and greeted him: "Brother Qingyun, why are you in such a hurry to come to the square?"
"It was raining yesterday and I left in a hurry. I lost a jade pendant. Come here to look for it!" Liu Qingyun's face was obviously anxious. Yu Jiuer guessed that the jade pendant must be very important to him.
Then he followed him and said, "What kind? I'll send more people over to help you find it!"
"No need! No need! I brought people here, maybe they left behind in the backstage, we can find them ourselves, you just do your thing!" Liu Qingyun said as she hurriedly got into the makeshift backstage shed.
There was obvious rejection on his face, which made Yu Jiuer wonder. It seemed like he didn't want her to see the jade pendant?
While I was stunned, a scream suddenly rang in my ears: "Ah! Be careful!"
Yu Jiuer felt something falling on her head. She looked up and her pupils shrank slightly.
A large iron pillar on the high shelf was rolling down from above and hitting Yu Jiuer right on the head.
At the critical moment, Yu Jiuer heard a "clang" sound in her ears. She only felt a black shadow flash before her eyes, and the expected pain did not come.
When she came to her senses, she saw Liu Qingyun was withdrawing her internal energy.
It was he who used a gust of internal force to directly blast the heavy iron pillar away.
His face turned pale as he cursed: "What are you doing? Concubine Yu has nothing, your lives are not enough to compensate!"
The frightened workers turned pale with fear and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and admitted their mistakes.
Shadow's face was tense with fear as he flew over from a distance.
"Do you know martial arts?" The crisis was resolved, and Yu Jiuer's attention shifted to Liu Qingyun. His internal strength was not a simple internal strength!
Liu Qingyun laughed and said, "Aren't martial arts and dancing skills from the same source? How can you sing opera without some basic skills? Of course you will have some!"
This is also called a little? Yu Jiuer doesn't believe it!
Just as he was about to ask more questions, his junior sister happily raised a turquoise jade pendant and shouted, "Found it, it fell into the haystack!"
Yu Jiuer took a look at the jade pendant and felt that the shape of the jade pendant was a bit strange, as if she had seen it somewhere.
She tried hard to think, but couldn't remember.
Liu Qingyun hurried over to grab the jade pendant and stuffed it into her arms, then turned around and asked Yu Jiuer, "Just now on the way, your people came to tell us that the emperor has opened the Royal Theater for us to perform?"
Her thoughts were interrupted, and Yu Jiuer nodded and said, "Yes! Let's go over too!"
"Okay!" Liu Qingyu waved to his people, "Go directly to the Royal Theater! Have them move all the things there!"
Is he trying to change the subject? Yu Jiuer's doubts grew even stronger.
But I don’t have time to think about it right now, I’ll ask him when I have time!
