This trip to Lin'an was overall a success for Zhao Tai.

Thanks to his efforts, the trajectory of history seems to have gradually deviated from its original trajectory.

In the Song Dynasty, Zheng Qingzhi took charge ahead of schedule and began preparations for Duanping's entry into Luo, and the situation was developing in a good direction.

What Zhao Tai has to do now is to quickly raise a team of troops after returning to the Jin Kingdom, and then use the assistance of the Southern Song Dynasty and his own business to arm his own army.

Zhao Tai's acquisition of Sun Jiaban was an investment, and it also had another purpose, which was that he did not want to change ships and wanted to return to the Kingdom of Jin quickly.

If Sun Erniang agrees, he does not need to disembark in Jiaxing and can ask them to go directly to Chuzhou without stopping.

At this time, Zhao Tai went back to rest. After hearing what Zhao Tai said, Sun Erniang couldn't sleep and called all the key members of the team over.

The Sun family's class was not big, it could even be said to be shabby, with only two pillars, a string player, a drummer, and a few extras.

In the cabin, after Sun Erniang called everyone over, she repeated what Zhao Tai said.

Old Liu, who was pulling the string, slapped his thigh and said, "Master, we have met a noble person!"

Aunt Wu, the handyman, also said: "Yes! Give us twice the salary we earn now, and we will also get commissions from future performances. It is much better than us wandering outside. I think it is good!"

Liu Changsheng stood up and said angrily to everyone: "What's the matter! The origin of the man named Zhao is unknown. How can you believe what he said? I don't agree with it anyway!"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Sun Qiong. Apparently, Zhao Tai's appearance made him feel in crisis, and he was worried that his cousin would like Zhao Tai.

Sometimes, what you are afraid of is what comes. As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Qiong stood up and said, "I don't think Mr. Zhao is such a person. Besides, there are so many of us, and we are afraid of being betrayed. I think Mr. Zhao

The conditions offered are quite good, and there is nothing to lose by agreeing!"

Sun Erniang glanced at her daughter, but showed a hint of worry. She hesitated for a while and said, "I'll think about it again!"

Sun Erniang didn't think about it for long. The troupe couldn't keep floating like this. He thought about it all night and made a decision early in the morning.

The next morning, as soon as Zhao Tai got up, he saw Sun Erniang walking over and she bowed slightly.

Zhao Tai was stunned for a moment, "This is Team Leader Sun?"

"I have been thinking about what the young master said yesterday for a long time. If the young master does not dislike our Sun family class, then we are willing to give it a try with the young master." Sun Erniang said.

After hearing this, Zhao Tai felt happy, "That's it, then what are you waiting for? Let's start rehearsing the play! I hope you can arrange the play well on the road and start performing it directly when you arrive in Chuzhou, so that your Sun family class will become famous."

Sun Erniang called everyone and informed them of her decision. Everyone in the team, except Liu Changsheng, was very happy.

Everyone in the team was very active in arranging new plays. Zhao Tai wrote the script on the spot and guided Sun Qiong and Liu Changsheng in the duel. Old Liu, who played the strings, listened to Zhao Tai sing twice and memorized the melody.

After all, Sun Jiaban is an old theater troupe, and everyone got started quickly. However, Zhao Tai was never satisfied with Sun Qiong and Liu Changsheng's play.

"To perform the Peony Pavilion well, the singing must be lyrical, the movements must be delicate, and the lyrics and body movements must be combined skillfully. Why are you two so stiff? There is always a sense of distance!" Zhao Tai watched for a while and gave guidance a few times, but he finally realized

No effect.

Liu Changsheng was a little unconvinced and asked angrily: "We have always sung like this, why can't we do it? Don't sincerely make things difficult!"

Zhao Tai stepped forward, looking down at him in the eyes. This kid obviously didn't understand the situation, "This is why you are so tepid! If you want to make this play, you have to arrange it according to what I said!"

Old Liu who was pulling the string was afraid that Liu Changsheng would offend Zhao Tai, and he also felt that something was not right. He almost got angry and said: "Changsheng, this play was written by the young master. How about you ask the young master to demonstrate it to you."

Liu Changsheng had been practicing opera since he was a child. He felt that he was not good at singing, and Zhao Tai was even worse, so he flicked his long sleeves and walked aside.

However, he was quickly dumbfounded and Director Zhao left the show in person. Sun Qiong was a little shy at first, but soon the two of them started babbling and flirting, making people feel that there were no Zhao Tai and Sun Qiong, but only Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei.

The Sun family class had good foundation, so the play was rehearsed very quickly. Zhao Tai and his party practiced during the day and hung up lanterns at night to perform on the bow of the boat.

With the soundtrack in hand, Zhao Tai asked people to purchase some supplies and set up the stage, striving to give the audience the best visual and auditory experience, and the effect he did was immediate.

Because the play Peony Pavilion is very long, Zhao Tai and the others were rehearsing and acting at the same time, so the progress was relatively slow, which gave the accompanying ships a feeling of following a play.

When the ship passed Jiaxing, it had already followed several other boats. When the time came every day, it would park near the Sun Family Class, just to watch the Sun Family Class rehearsal.

…

When Zhao Tai took a boat to go north, Kuo Duan also left Lin'an with the Mongolian envoy.

At this time, in a restaurant near Lin'an Pier, Shi Miyuan was practicing for Kuo Duan. He picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, now the official family has to join forces, so I can't see you off in public, so I can only do it here."

Just prepare some wine!"

Kuoduan picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it, "I understand the wishes of the Prime Minister. But it is a pity that I did not catch Zhao Tai!"

Shi Miyuan smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't worry. Even though Zhao Tai has escaped, he will not be easy after he returns. I have already used a trick. Maybe the Jin people will deal with Zhao Tai without Your Highness taking action!"

"Oh?" Kuoduan became interested, "What plan did the Prime Minister use?"

Shi Miyuan picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "We can't talk about this plan for the time being!"

Shi Miyuan had already sent someone to report to the Jin Kingdom, indicating that Zhao Tai was a spy of the Song Dynasty. However, in this case, the Mongols might blame the Song Dynasty for Tu Lei's death.

This will be detrimental to the future relationship between Song and Mongolia. Shi Miyuan's goal is to become the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, not to completely betray the Song Dynasty. He needs to consider this.

Seeing that he refused to say anything, Kuo Duan showed an unhappy look on his face. Seeing this, Shi Mi looked at Li Zhixiao and winked at him.

Li Zhixiao understood, took out a cloth bag from his body, and pushed it in front of Kuo Duan.

"What is this?" Kuo Duan asked.

Shi Miyuan smiled and said: "This is a great gift from me to the prince!"

Kuo Duan took it and opened it, with a look of surprise on his face, "This is the Song Army's defense plan along the Huaihe River!"

Ye Luxuan heard the sound and hurriedly came over. He looked at the drawing, which was marked in detail. The numbers of the Song Dynasty's garrison troops in the cities on the south bank of the Huaihe River, the number of soldiers and horses, the leading generals, and even the places suitable for crossing the river were marked one by one.

Shi Miyuan smiled and said: "With this map, I believe that the prince can easily defeat Zhao Fan! In this way, the officials will be afraid and will no longer trust Zheng Qingzhi, and the negotiations on the alliance between Mongolia and Song Dynasty can be restarted."

Kuo Duan smiled and said: "At that time, I will tell you, the envoys of the Song Dynasty, that I will not accept other people coming to negotiate, and I will only negotiate with Shi!"
