Chapter 187: Attachment
Even if Tan Weishi is not considered a princess in Danyang, she is also a very influential figure. She is the most influential art patron in Danyang. When Tan Weixin began to leave the troupes she founded because of various busy affairs, leaving behind many script outlines and a lot of increasingly professional cast members who were at a loss, the leisurely little princess took over these interesting things. Not only that, Tan Weishi also used her pretty generous royal money to fund a large number of poetry festivals, painting clubs and other institutions, and even participated in some of the activities from time to time. When Princess Embroidery and His Majesty the Kingdom of China were in a state of emotion, Tan Weishi did not completely regard gambling as the most noble cause, but instead devoted himself to Dongping and the first symphonic musical poetry drama in the history of Zhongtu - "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai".
Although the name was copied from Liang Zhu, the plot of this poetic drama is Shakespeare's famous drama "Romeo and Juliet". If you want to say why the name looks so nonsensical when it matches the plot, it can only be blamed when Tan Weixin was thinking about the names of a couple, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai appeared like this. It is unknown whether the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai will be brought to the stage in the future, but for such a spoof, it was obviously a very interesting thing for Tan Weixin at that time. As for Ma Wencai, in the play, he became the name of the "mysterious hermit" who provided Zhu Yingtai with the potion of "resurrection".
After being influenced by this extremely literary environment for several years, even if Tan Weishi didn't understand literature and art, she would have quite good opinions. What's more, Tan Weishi had a great interest in these things, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to take over the theater troupe at that time.
Tan Weishi is not only the sponsor of this poetry drama. She even participated in the entire poetry drama script, stage design, actor selection, rehearsal and revision process from the beginning, and even part of the script was written by her. Her poetry talent was expressed in the repeated discussions and revisions of the scripts, which amazed many people, and she sincerely lamented that none of the children of the Tan family had simple roles.
However, just as Tan Weishi was organizing the rehearsal, in a side palace, Tan Xiaopei was summoning several ministers who were so unpopular that he would never think of, and discussing some absolutely confidential matters. These matters happened to be related to Tan Weishi's anger.
Tan Xiaopei is not a fool or a reckless person. When he was considering deciding on a marriage for Tan Weishi, his strictness in the selection was beyond imagination. It is no wonder that when he had no disgust towards Ye Tao, he tested Ye Tao for so many years with his father's persistence and awkwardness. However, for Tan Weishi, who seems not as capable as his sister, but is a more considerate and lovely daughter, how could Tan Xiaopei take it lightly?
He has screened almost all the young people of the age of Ping. Later, even those families in Yunzhou and those top families in Chunnan, which have a good relationship with Dongping, were included in the scope of consideration. He has selected them from such a huge list of candidates. After considering morality, personality, talent, wealth, family situation, etc., he has proposed to Tan Weishi to choose. Those candidates did not complain as bad as Tan Weishi complained to his friends, sister and two brothers.
Tan Weishi is not the kind of princess who hides at home and does not go out. Over the years, she has known all kinds of people, especially talented young people. If she is not satisfied with the candidates proposed by Tan Xiaopei, if she has a favorite or even a better impression, Tan Xiaopei will definitely find ways to do it for her daughter. In Tan Xiaopei's opinion, probably no one will deliberately refuse to marry a family determined to unify the world and have a great chance to unify the world. And when Tan Weishi has almost no other opinions besides rejecting or resisting, Tan Xiaopei also came to the same conclusion as Dai Qiuyan: If there is a problem, there must be a problem.
At this time, the outline of the script of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" appeared unexpectedly in front of Tan Xiaopei, increasing Tan Xiaopei's imagination.
Is it an enemy between families the same as in the play? No, it is impossible! Tan Weishi cannot know the families of Xiling or the people of Bei Liao. In Dongping, there is nothing in the country that can be called an enemy family based on the establishment of the warlords of the family and their consistent personality.
What is the reason? Because of the other party’s identity, age, experience, etc.?... No matter what, Tan Xiaopei decided to take action.
He first summoned the guard chief of Tan Weishi Jinze and asked every detail about everyone, or all the communities that Princess Xiu had contacted over the years. Then, Tan Xiaopei removed those obviously impossible candidates from it. For example, those who only met once and were very short and could not leave any impression; for example, those who came to greet everyone's favorite little princess, because Tan Xiaopei knew that these people could not be considered impossible by Tan Weishi because of their identity; for example, those who had relatives (and Ye Tao was excluded from this round of considerations). Then, after thinking about it, Tan Xiaopei removed all the women...
Even so, there were hundreds of people left on the list. In this helpless situation, Tan Xiaopei used the Intelligence Bureau laughed and cried.
Although Nie Rui couldn't help rolling his eyes when he thought of this in private, he had no idea of using Tan Xiaopei's public utility in private. The Nie family was originally a retainer of the Tan family, and then he became famous. After several generations, although his power could only be considered a small amount, there were also important officials like Nie Rui who could enter the center. Nie Rui's loyalty to Tan Xiaopei and the Tan family was even higher than his loyalty to Dongping as a country. He ordered the investigation of those hundreds without hesitation, hoping to discover who the Empress Princess Tan Weishi's sweetheart was.
I don’t know who heard the statement from where: a person’s poems are the expression of his inner consciousness, and so on. Tan Xiaopei was so angry that he wanted to start from this aspect to understand, how far Tan Weishi and the mysterious "sweetheart" had progressed, and why he refused to reveal the matter.
Dissatisfied with the huge expenses of Tan Weishi's support for those poetry, calligraphy and painting and other things over the years, Tan Xiaopei directly sent someone to take over the entire embroidery garden, saying that he wanted to thoroughly investigate the princess' expenses. Tan Weishi had no other way, and hummed a few dissatisfiedly and went to the explanation hall of Yizhan Building to rehearse the poetry drama. However, she did not expect that as soon as she left, more than a dozen of the most senior intelligence personnel from the Intelligence Bureau entered the Embroidery Garden. They carefully searched every room of the Embroidery Garden, opened every box, pulled out every drawer, and even carefully searched every book and every page, for fear of missing any small piece of paper. After copying every word that Tan Weishi wrote over the years in the original format, these people quickly returned everything, for fear of leaving any trace, so that Tan Weishi discovered that they had appeared in the Embroidery Garden.
As a senior cultural patron, a poet and poet who has been studying and has achieved quite good results, and a passionate companion who is always willing to communicate with friends far away from home, Tan Weishi has left many records over the years, and it takes a lot of time to turn all the pages. At this time, professional intelligence personnel began to play a role again. They classified Tan Weishi's various documents according to the privacy of the location of the discovery, and arranged the time according to whether there is a clear time to write these things and the time to confirm them.
Line, referring to the timeline and list, classifying contacts with various people, and eliminating those who are already listed outside the list... Then, some of them thoroughly sorted out all non-literary texts, such as letters, basic records, and answers to friends, searching for the keywords that usually appear between lovers. The other part of them picked out all the literary works of Tan Weishi... They dare not make judgments on this kind of creation, and this part of the content needs to be found by Tan Xiaopei to organize and analyze.
So, Tan Xiaopei summoned Bai Xianyong, the chief of the Literature Museum of the Archives Bureau, the bachelor of Wenhua Palace, the famous poet Yu Pingbo, and the head of the Wanggong Shuyu Pavilion, the head of Mrs. Jin Xingyao, the wife of Jin Xing and even the entire Middle-earth continent in the field of literary creation to explain the content of these poems to him.
When it comes to Tan Weishi's poems, these people have never read them much. They are not the kind of people who need to praise royal members to pave the way for their careers. Some have been successful and some don't care about them at all. They only care about poetry and articles. Tan Weishi's deeds as a well-known cultural patron have heard of them, but Tan Weishi's works have never seen many of them except for the collective creations of the dramas and other things she participated in. And when a large number of works were put in front of everyone, they were also shocked by the number and quality of Tan Weishi's works.
After some sorting, they focused their attention on two works:
One of them is:
The lingboat is just Hengtang Road, but I watch the fragrance of the dust. Who can survive in the years of the golden age? The moon bridge flower courtyard, the cumbersome windows and red houses, and only the spring is known.
Flying clouds are rising in the evening of the Henggao, and the new heart-breaking sentences of colored pens are in the heart. If you ask how much leisure is, there is a river of tobacco, the wind and catkins are everywhere in the city, and the plums are yellow and rainy!
Another poem attracted everyone's unanimous attention:
The heavy curtain is deep under the Mochou Hall, and the clear night is slender after lying.
The life of a goddess is originally a dream, and my sister-in-law is already a man.
If the storm does not believe that the branches of the water chestnuts are weak, who can teach the fragrance of osmanthus leaves?
It is useless to say that missing you is useless, but it is not bad to be sad that you are mad.
If you read these two works by Tan Weishi in other situations, you may congratulate Tan Xiaopei on having an article that is comparable to those of the world. However, if you read these two articles on such occasions, you are asked to explain them, which will make everyone here feel uncomfortable.
