The most arrogant in history

Bingbing was overjoyed: "Teacher Wen, please help me with the specific planning and get me some advertising business."

"No problem, I'll help you plan it." Wen Axiu nodded and said:

"In the theater, we can also recruit snack franchisees to sell candies, melon seeds, and candied haws, so that people can enjoy delicious food while watching the show. As long as there is popularity, there are many ways to make money."

Everyone nodded and praised Wen Axiu's business acumen.

Bingbing smiled and said, "But we don't have any of the martial arts performances, crosstalk and acrobatics that the emperor mentioned."

"No, then just do it slowly."

Ye Kun said: "I will be in seclusion for three days, and work with everyone to create. Some of the stories I have told Teacher Wen Axiu before, have been sorted out, and are ready-made. It is not too difficult to develop them."

Bingbing smiled and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, let's go into seclusion together."

There are training rooms and rehearsal halls in the grand theater, so it's suitable to do my retreat here.

The Art and Literature Department mobilized more than 200 elites, divided into several groups, to participate in the creation.

Some people wrote the script, some designed the actions, some composed the music, some wrote the lyrics, and some designed the curtain background and simple special effects.

Ye Kun also selected thirty young masters from the army, both men and women, to form a martial arts performance class and conduct acrobatic somersault training.

The scouts in the army, or reconnaissance soldiers, are all very powerful.

Simple somersaults and some martial arts moves can be learned quickly.

Ye Kun was not an expert in martial arts, but he had seen such performances after all, and he also knew a few martial arts moves, so he could give very knowledgeable instructions.

On the first night of the retreat, the Grand Theatre opened for the first time and performed The Legend of White Snake, which was packed to the brim.

This performance was even more exciting than the last performance at the university.

Because some special effects were added.

Like at some point, add some smoke.

For example, the old Taoist priest appears, using an invisible zipline in the air to perform a flying show, which is very fairy-like...

The acoustics are better too.

Most of the people who came to watch the show were children of officials, merchants, university teachers and students, and well-off families in Zhuo County.

Bingbing's performance as White Snake brought her even greater fame and she became a rising star.

Ye Kun didn't have time to watch it. He was in the training room guiding the various departments in their creations.

In three days, Ye Kun made everyone know what crosstalk is and what martial arts performance is.

He also organized and wrote dramas such as "Mulan Joins the Army for Her Father", "Meng Jiangnu Crying at the Great Wall", "The Injustice of Dou E", "Butterfly Lovers", and "Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Box in Anger".

On the last night, Ye Kun personally performed the stand-up comedy "Three Consecutive Promotions" for the creative team, making the entire audience laugh so hard that they fell down.

Of course, many scripts and crosstalks have been simply modified.

Some eras are difficult to arrange, so Ye Kun said they were from a certain Western empire.

After the crosstalk, the martial arts team came on stage and did somersaults, boxing, sword dance and knife skills to show everyone the results of their rehearsal.

The accompanying song starts:

"Lying down like a bow, ha! Standing like a pine tree, ha! Sitting still like a bell, walking like a gust of wind... Southern boxing and northern kicking, Emei and Wudang Kung Fu. Tai Chi Bagua Lianhuan Palm, China has magical skills!"

Although there are not many martial arts routines developed, they are quite decent.

The entire literary and artistic creation team was also excited by the performance.

Ye Kun called the captain of the martial arts team and said with a smile:

"These three days of preparation have been effective, but it is far from enough. We need to develop more martial arts moves and performance routines for the eighteen weapons to enhance the performance and viewing experience.

Everyone must be able to sing this song "Chinese Kung Fu", and the movements must be coordinated with the rhythm of the song... After another month of practice, and making sure that the coordination is seamless, you can perform on stage.

Every martial arts move or technique must be given a name. The name must be powerful, such as... "Strike Huashan Mountain with Force", "Yaksha Explores the Sea", "Old Tree with Roots", "Blue Dragon Exiting the Cave", "Double Thunder Piercing the Ears", "Standing on the Ground to the Sky", "Fierce Tiger Climbing the Mountain"..."

The martial arts team members nodded repeatedly.

Ye Kun added: "In order to increase the performance effect, we can also use some props. For example, kicking the wooden board in mid-air can break it. Let's find some wooden boards that are easy to break. This can ensure the effect and safety."

The martial arts captain said, "Your Majesty, is this deceiving the audience?"

"This is called performing arts, how can it be considered deceiving the audience? Can the audience do somersaults and kick in the air?"

Ye Kun smiled: "Come on, everyone. Keep training and carry forward the Chinese culture. We must inherit traditional culture and also have cultural innovation!"

The three-day retreat and creative work were very successful.

Bingbing's admiration for Ye Kun rose to a new height. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you still have a lot of food in your belly, right? I will squeeze more in the future..."

"This..." Ye Kun smiled bitterly:

"Don't push yourself. I'll give it to you when I have time. There will be good news coming from the border in the next two days. I need to pay attention to the developments in the northern border."

It has been five days since Crown Prince Ye Feng led the wedding procession.

Tomorrow is the sixth day of October. The wedding procession and the Huns' welcoming procession will meet at the northern foot of the Yin Mountains.

Jiang Yourong was also worried and said to Ye Kun, "Feng'er is young and this is his first time taking on a big responsibility. I am worried. Your Majesty, Feng'er...will be alright?"

"Don't worry, Madam. Feng'er will be safe if he follows Lu Kaijiang."

Ye Kun held Jiang Yourong's hand and said, "There are 300 personal soldiers around Feng'er. They are all well-trained and brave. One against ten, they are unstoppable. I have already told them to absolutely guarantee Feng'er's safety."

"So what do you think...about accompanying Daixi to Yinshan?"

"I will set out tomorrow to Yinshan to bring back Feng'er and Mingzhu. The army is ready, and Daixi will go with me."

"That's good. I feel relieved." Jiang Yourong nodded and smiled.

The sixth day of October.

Ye Kun assembled an army of 10,000 and headed to the Yinshan border in person.

That evening, good news arrived:

"The Xiongnu wedding procession was rude and attempted to kidnap the crown prince Ye Feng, resulting in a conflict between the two sides. Our army was forced to launch a counterattack, killing 2,700 enemies, capturing more than 1,000 Xiongnu princes, ministers and the wedding procession, and seizing 300,000 cattle and sheep!

The border market has been blocked, and all the Xiongnu merchants and their servants, more than 4,000 people, have been detained!"

Of course, the so-called Huns wanting to kidnap the prince was just an excuse.

There is no excuse, it's hard to be angry!

Ye Kun nodded and sent a telegram to ask: "How is the current situation of Crown Prince Ye Feng and Princess Mingzhu?"

Yinshan quickly replied: "Princess Mingzhu has retreated to Yinshan camp. Crown Prince Yefeng and Lu Kaijiang personally led 10,000 light cavalry to hunt down the fleeing Xiongnu soldiers."

"Order Guan Yong to assist Crown Prince Ye Feng. No mistakes can be made."

Ye Kun gave an order for everyone to set up camp on the spot and rest for a night.

The next morning, Ye Kun led the light cavalry and arrived at the Yinshan camp overnight.

Ye Feng and Lu Kaijiang haven't come back yet.

But on the battlefield, there were constant reports of victory.

When Princess Mingzhu saw her parents, she rushed over and said, "Father, Emperor, and Mother!"

"Good girl, you've been wronged." Ye Kun patted his daughter's back and comforted her:

"You have made great contributions this time. When you return, the emperor will definitely reward you. Stay here and wait for your brother to come back, then we will return to the capital."

Princess Mingzhu nodded and said, "My brother is leading the troops to hunt down the Xiongnu. I am worried that he will be injured. Father, please call my brother back quickly."
