"Who is Zhong Ni?" reveals the inside story of the strange girl Meng Xiaodong who chose Du instead of Mei Lanfang during the Republic of China.

Everyone passing by is called Jianghu.

Sometimes I feel that everything in the world is imprinted. Although the wind was silent, the trees moved in chaos as they passed over the treetops, blowing away a light dust and frost. The sound of falling snow is so soft, and it is so silent when it melts, but it leaves the coolness in the empty air, quietly penetrating into the depths; the beating light of the candle is so weak that it once Brightens up a quiet room. No matter where people go, no matter how light their steps are, no matter how slender their figures are, there will always be people who remember it, but those who don't remember will also remember the vegetation, flowers and birds, mountains, rocks, and green rivers here.

Yang Guo gave Guo Xiang three golden needles at Fenglingdu. In fact, they just met by chance. The first time she saw her, she was full of expectations for this great warrior. He thought she was young and naive, but she had the same personality. At this time, Lily took off her mask as promised, gave her a grand birthday gift, and also gave her the empty happiness in her life. Three golden needles fell into the young girl's innocent and intelligent heart, leaving a tender impression on her ever since. A few years later, she fell into Buddhism with her youthful dream, and eventually became another tragic legend in the world.

A few years ago, you walked by in a hurry, startling the birds in the summer sky and scaring away the crumbling flowers. The white horses are rustling and the autumn breeze is blowing, but you don't know that the girl on the balcony who pushed open the window with her hand is staring at you deeply, and finally gradually goes away. At this glance, I don’t know who missed whom. As time goes by, you no longer remember her, but she has changed her appearance, her appearance has become older, and she fell in love when she was young. It’s just as cool as telling someone else’s story.

Meng Xiaodong and Mei Lanfang admire each other. He is in her eyes and she is in his heart. However, He Du is another story. She doesn't remember him. This memory doesn't mean she doesn't know him. On the contrary, she never paid him any attention or looked him in the eye. She only sees him as a distant boss. No, it was a smile that was more than half polite and distant, and a smile that was stingy in its giving.

Love or not is already decided.

In the late autumn of 1925, the air in Peiping gradually became brighter and drier, and the sun was still shining brightly, but at this time, he looked like an old man in his twilight years. Meng Xiaodong has the habit of taking a lunch break. On this day, he was about to close his eyes to see Kang, and he felt refreshed for a while. His servant Duan Haihong suddenly came in and gave him a business card. Since she became famous in Peiping, people often come to see her.

She took the business card and looked at it, but couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She recognized the words on the business card, but had never met the owner of the name. But after singing on stage for a year, Huang became the hottest person in Shanghai in recent years because of his admiration and appreciation. It is said that Huang had three thousand disciples, and Du was outstanding among these three thousand disciples. In recent years, he seems to be on an equal footing with Huang Ping. Of course Meng Xiaodong did not dare to neglect and quickly invited him in.

Du, this time, it’s for the romantic past. After Huang and Lu Lanchun divorced peacefully, Lu Lanchun ran away from home and could no longer make a living through acting. From then on, Lu Lanchun left Shanghai without a trace. Some said she went to Tianjin, while others said they met her in Peking. In fact, Huang Zhi agreed to the divorce because he fell in love with Lu Lanchun's apprentice Xiao Lanchun, so he gave up. It's just that as time goes by, no matter how young or delicate the girl is, she can't find a reason to be moved. He gradually lost Lu Lanchun's charm and beauty, and her every move was feminine. How can ordinary girls compare?

When Huang thought of this, he couldn't wait to pay attention to the lady immediately. He just sent people to find Du and asked him to get Lu Lanchun back. After listening to Du's order, he immediately couldn't laugh or cry. As the saying goes, to untie a bell, you must tie the bell. When they divorced, they had a big fight. Lan Chun has dirty evidence in his hands. When Huang picked up the controller, it wasn't for fun. The two fought to the death and tried to bite off a piece of each other's flesh. Du couldn't stand it any longer, so he became a peacemaker, persuaded Lu Lanchun, comforted Huang, and finally ended up with a peaceful divorce.

At this time, Lu Lanchun could no longer stay in Shanghai, so Du gave her a sum of money and sent her out of Shanghai. Now let him get people back, wouldn't this embarrass him? There is no reason to send people away and bring them back. What's more, Du at this time is no longer the Du who obeyed Huang's orders. His career became more and more popular, but he was also very busy. Now that Huang was looking for someone, he didn't say it out loud, but he was helpless.

However, when he thought about it, Huang didn't know that he had sent Lu Lanchun away. If someone finds Lu Lanchun first, it will be a failure. It is better to find it yourself. So, Du took two people and came to Peiping first. Because he heard that Lu Lanchun might defect to Meng Xiaodong, and it was said that they were very close when they were together.

This is a bit like a myth. Although Meng Xiaodong respected Lu Lanchun very much, they rarely met each other after all. Although they had a close relationship, they did not have a deep friendship. How did Lu Lanchun in "Journey to the West" come to Meng Xiaodong? After arriving in Peiping, Du did not have the address, so he had to ask all the way, but it was difficult to find anyone in Peiping. They stayed in Peiping for a few days, but they could not find the address of Meng Xiaodong's home.

Fortunately, God will reward. One day, when Du was passing by the theater, he accidentally saw an advertisement in the theater: 18-year-old superstar Tan Pai was born. Du was overjoyed and quickly sent someone to buy tickets. When the subordinates asked about it, they came back and told Du that they were very sad because they were robbed and injured when they went home after a break. The theater has been closed for several days, and even the tickets have not been sold for several days.

What he wants is Du, who is also a well-known figure in Shanghai. When he arrived in Peiping, he found that someone was in such big trouble. For a while, there was nothing he could do and he had to go back to the hotel to rest. On the way back, we passed by Yushikou Garden, where a lively drama "The Civet Cat for the Crown Prince" was being staged. It was a play performed by Yao mother and daughter on the same stage. Du himself is a theater fan. These days, in order to find Meng Xiaodong, he can't go to the opera. When he saw that his heart was moved, he bought a ticket and entered the theater.

Sometimes, life is so beautiful. An idea, beyond a line, is very different. Du Yi walked into Huayuan and saw it on the stage. The lights dimmed, and there was a roar of people, mixed with the sound of bamboo. Her eyebrows were full of stars, like a piece of blue mist, like a fairy falling slowly from nine days away. Heroes love beauties since ancient times, and Du remembered this name from then on. From then on, a love-hate relationship began with Lu Lanchun.

One thread can get rid of thousands of thoughts; one love can surround many thoughts. If you were not researching and searching, and were still a stranger in Peiping, maybe Du would have known you that night. For now, it’s important to do things. But everything becomes obvious, revealing a clear clue. Just like turning a chapter and writing a pen, the ending is already determined.

There are also Meng Xiaodong and Mei Lanfang.

After thinking about it, Du decided to start with Enlightenment Theater. Since Meng Xiaodong sings here, she will definitely come back here to perform on stage when she is in good health. So he went to the Mingkai Theater every day and waited for news. Finally one day, Meng Xiaodong's receipt notice was printed in the theater:

On the evening of the 17th of this month in the Gregorian calendar, Mercy and others were robbed. The murder and robbery were horrific. Not painful. Since he was an elder at that time, he sent a letter to Shang and asked one after another. After hearing what the other person said, I was tired and grateful. As tonight's evening show begins, I would like to open a few lines about Ming Dynasty and briefly express my gratitude. I won’t thank you one by one. October 30th.

After waiting for so long, I finally came back from Meng Xiaodong’s illness. Juniper gasped. He knew in his heart that Lu Lanchun's hope in Peking was getting smaller, but it had been delayed again in the past few days. If he hadn't even seen Meng Xiaodong's performance, was his trip really fruitless? Thinking of this, he slowly calmed down and decided to see Meng Xiaodong's performance before making any plans.

That night, Meng Xiaodong's performance was as wonderful as ever. Maybe it means "the younger one has won a new marriage." I haven't heard Meng Xiaodong sing in so many days, and the audience especially joined in, and even the applause was warmer than usual. Du closed his eyes in the box, listened carefully, and thought to himself, "This is so well sung. It deserves to be popular in Shanghai and Beijing." He thought of Yao Yulan whom he heard a few days ago, and thought to himself that spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums each have their own merits, and every word is beautiful. No matter who it is, they are excellent.

After the performance that day, he asked someone to secretly follow Meng Xiaodong. It was not until he saw Meng Xiaodong entering Sanlu and No. 26 Dongsigong Road that he learned that Meng Xiaodong lived here. Knowing the address will make things easier. He did not rush to Meng Xiaodong to inquire about Lu Lanchun. Instead, he had people wait at Meng Xiaodong's house for three days, but no trace of Lu Lanchun was found. At this time, Shi Shiran tidied up his clothes and went to visit Meng Xiaodong as planned.

He was born in a gang, so he naturally knew that even if Lu Lanchun really defected to Meng Xiaodong, Meng Xiaodong would not tell the truth, so he was careful before coming to the open door to ensure that Meng Xiaodong had nothing to do with Lu Lanchun. As the saying goes, the villain precedes the gentleman. Perhaps this is Du's way of survival. His world seems completely different from Meng Xiaodong's.

However, the world is often such a coincidence. An exciting story doesn't have to be between two perfectly matched people. They might be very different, they might hate each other, or they might never get close. But fate and the depth of fate make people unable to look forward to it in vain.

Du, who came to visit, stepped forward cautiously. During this trip, he went to Wangfujing Street to get a haircut and bought a new suit. Now, standing in front of Meng Xiaodong was a handsome man with a neat little head, wearing a fashionable suit and a pair of white pointed leather shoes. At that time, Du was in his prime, and his appearance was not impressive on weekdays, but when he looked up, he looked a bit delicate and elegant. When we first met, I thought he was someone who had returned from overseas.

I heard that Du was coming, and Mr. Meng and Qiu Yuexiang came out to greet him personally. Although I don't know the purpose of Du's trip, I am a big shot in Shanghai. Meng poured tea for Du himself, and Qiu Yuexiang took out the best cigarette at home and lit it for Du herself. Standing on the steps of the west wing, he smiled gently and asked Du to go home.

Du had never seen it before. Even if I have seen it, it was a woman playing an old-fashioned character under the noisy stage lights. She often wears an electronic crown and a mustache. She is a beautiful woman. It's rare to see clothes like this. Now, I see her gradually moving away from the bustling world, wearing only a simple shirt and a green jade bracelet, with long braids hanging behind her head, smiling at him. This was not the season when pear blossoms were in full bloom, but he seemed to feel the sweetness of the empty pear blossoms gradually swaying in the air, which made people feel frivolous.

He has not seen such a woman for a long time. She is as beautiful as the April sunshine. Suddenly, there was only one thought in his mind: he wanted to talk to her, even if it was just a word. So he smiled and said to Meng Xiaodong: "Ms. Meng has made rapid progress and is working really hard now." For some reason, he didn't want to mention Lu Lanchun at all, it seemed like this was the way he talked about it. As soon as they met, they lost their current innocence and tranquility.

Faced with Du's compliments, he just smiled and listened. He had a very gentle demeanor and seemed to be the most elegant person in the boudoir. If I say hello, my father and teacher will naturally say that that is not the scope of her social life. Du talked about Huang for a while, and then politely invited him back to Shanghai to perform. He never mentioned the purpose of his trip, but it confused Meng's family. After leaving, Meng and Qiu Yuexiang murmured for a long time, but still couldn't figure out where Du came from.

Some people say that meeting is fate. A quick glance left a deep impression on me. This meeting only left a small amount of money in Meng Xiaodong's heart. When the wind blew and the autumn grass became frosty, she soon forgot about him. Yue Sheng was late, maybe their true destiny has not yet arrived. She didn't care and wasn't curious. Was he really coming here to see them?

However, she didn't know it, but in his heart, her encounter left a unique place for her. Wind and rain do not invade, there are no glorious years, no spring flowers wither, no autumn moon shines. However, he is willing to be a silent bluestone, a snow-white pine tree, waiting forever for the fragrance of fragrant pears.

Flowing fragrance, fleeting fragrance

After all, in a person's life, he has experienced so many stormy seas and trudged through so many mountains and rivers in one night before he can get a portion of it. Hardships turn into tenderness within reach, allowing a true love to embrace a tender heart. It can be speculated that one of the love words is that Yao has gone through a lot of hardships on the stage, it is so difficult to steal the sixth reincarnation, and it is so difficult to obtain it. However, the same people have different lives. Some people are lucky, they can easily meet the person they love, so they are happy and grow old together.

Some people say that Meng Xiaodong’s life is very difficult. Bumpy? Young, famous, famous, everyone wants to be the apple of his eye and even smile. However, those things never reached her heart, only opened on her lips and disappeared. Her frustration may be that she is trapped in love.

"The sound of autumn leaves, a little banana, a little sadness, the night after the dream. The snuff chess has not been collected, leaving the Xinfeng people alone. In the past ten years, two old worries from Jiangnan have come to mind.

Xu Zaisi's "Sorrow" is well written, lonely and sparse, like a night in cold tea, with a faint familiar yet lingering fragrance falling into the sadness, which is completely different from the taste of the original work. Trapped by love, locked in a deep building, unable to live or die, indescribable sadness and sorrow.

Meng Xiaodong was also trapped by love, unable to sleep at night, entangled for no reason, thinking over and over again, but could not find the answer. The name Lengxiang, brewing with Meilan, lingered in his mind, came to his lips, and then retreated timidly, just like the unspeakable affection that could only be buried deeply. Although she is a famous actress in Liyuan, she has received etiquette education since she was a child, and she expresses her feelings nakedly, boldly saying things like "There are trees and branches in the mountains, but I feel the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn." But she couldn't say it. Her greatest love is to gaze deeply and hide infinite thoughts in her eyes.

If we had remained silent forever, Meng Xiaodong and Mei Lanfang might have missed and wasted their lives. He doesn't even know she loves him. She tried her best, but her mind was filled with lovesickness. She may never know that her love has echoed and made the most beautiful sound. Sometimes love is like that. You didn't say it, and I didn't say it either. It just passed by and solidified into a missed encounter. Recalling my white hair, I suddenly felt like it was overgrown.

Someone broke the deadlock. Qi Rushan, the elder of the Mei Sect, said to Feng Gengguang of the bank: "Sixth Master should do something good to make their marriage more happy." This is also a favorite story in the world. "At that time, they performed a romantic story of an emperor on the stage, and a pair of lovers were born in heaven. After hearing Qi Rushan's words, Mei and his party responded one after another. At this time, Feng Gengguang laughed: After hearing a joke, he looked back and thought about it, but I think Qi Rushan's idea is good.

This is about the role of the Mei Party. In fact, this is a group that is equivalent to an agent, responsible for Mei Lanfang's acting career and managing his income, but sometimes it is not possible. In this environment, Mei Lanfang not only represents himself, but also represents a group with him as the core. He is not worried about this group. He is restrained and restrained by these people. Influence. But Meng Xiaodong knew nothing about it at the time, so sometimes I wonder if Meng Xiaodong knew about the forces behind Mei Lanfang and that she was willing to marry this man who was more than ten years older than her.

< p>Maybe. Once the fire of love burns, it will burn everything, and it may trigger a prairie fire. How can we resist the explosion of fireworks and make this moment a fire? Beautiful? More importantly, an 18-year-old girl with a heart as fragile as an orchid meets love and becomes the most determined Dia, invincible and unstoppable.

Mei Yingxing defeats the two. They are brought together in the hope of ending the friendship between Mei and Meng from a financial point of view. Imagine that Jin Jiao, an absolute beauty, and the protagonist's old classmate, sing the drama "You Lennon, Me Lennon" on the stage, and live in the audience. It is about the life of the fairy couple. It is not only a legend about the pear garden, but also about this topic. How many people are willing to travel thousands of miles to witness the marriage of Mei Lanfang and Meng Xiaodong?

So after Feng Gengguang looked back and thought about it carefully, he really decided that if it didn't work, then that would be great. It's not like Qian Qian fell from the sky and the old fox fell to the ground. What are you thinking about, what is worthy of Mei Meng, what can make a good story. In fact, Qi Rushan just doesn't like Mei Lanfang's wife Fu Zhifang, and thinks that Fu Zhifang is the main reason why Mei Lanfang's ex-wife Wang Minghua left Jin. She tried every means to pull Fu Zhifang down, but even if she couldn't pull her down, it would still make her sad.

The world is so tortuous, how can it be "comprehensive"? You gave birth to me, but I gave birth to you and grew old. The pace of time always moves faster, and the situation when we met was not unique. At that time, young people were young and had children who were kneeling and talking. Mei Lanfang was only 16 years old when she got married. Although the family is from a Liyuan family, it is not possible for people of Mei Lanfang's generation. He was adopted into his uncle's house since he was a child, and he is also the child of his biological parents. His first task is to pass on the incense. /p>

She was only 18 years old when she became his wife. To Mei Lanfang, she is a wife, a sister, and a relative.

For a long time, they almost lived together, as if they were unique to each other, waiting for each other and supporting each other. But is that love? Maybe it should be called responsibility.

Three media were hired and six sedans were carried, and she entered on a noisy day. He didn't know what kind of woman he married. Is your temperament arrogant or gentle? What do you look like? Can you move forward and backward? He didn't know any of these things. He could only put on a red robe like all the blindly married teenagers, wait quietly for the wedding night, lift off the bride's red scarf, and slowly look for eternity. Fortunately, Wang Minghua is a gentle and generous old lady who deserves Mei Lanfang's respect and love. She has a pair of dexterous hands, and Mei Lanfang's wig will be polished every day on stage so that she can bring it to the stage. Makeup on stage is usually Wang Minghua's responsibility. In her hands, Mei Lanfang on the stage becomes more and more radiant.

At the same time, she also won the love of Mei Dang. Over the years, Mei's persistence and patience have made Mei Dang feel that she is the only heroine who can afford the Mei family. She once gave birth to a son and a daughter for Mei Lanfang. The eldest son's name is Dayong, and his daughter's nickname is Fifty. Children and children, the most extreme happiness in the world, and so on. Later, in order to better take care of her husband and family, she resolutely underwent birth control surgery and kept the Mei family's backyard in order.

If those accidents had not happened, perhaps this once happy little family would have lived a carefree life. A few years later, their children grew up and became old ladies and old men, helping them walk in the late autumn sunset in Peiping. It's just strange that destiny creates people. A few years after the birth control surgery, two children died one after another, and Wang Minghua began to cry. As a mother, this is brutal and painful. As a wife, she felt guilty towards Mei Lanfang. She can no longer inherit the incense for him. She lost her child and she knew she was going to lose her husband.

Mei Lanfang was helpless. How could he not be hurt when he lost a pair of lovely children? How can you not regret it? However, he is the head of the family and the only man in the Mei family. The burden on his shoulders was too heavy to be shied away from. He watched his wife's weight loss worsen. He invited the best doctors in Beijing and they used the best medicine, but he knew it was a weak heart disease that no one could solve. Life has reached a deadlock and everyone is suffering. It wasn't until the thin and haggard man personally asked him to marry another wife that the family's inheritance rights became important, and the Mei family was cut off. This sin was too great for her to bear. Faced with this situation, Mei Lanfang could not say a word. He could neither agree nor refuse, but remained silent.

He is willing to delay, but the elders in the family have nothing to do. In 1920, Meijia bought Fu Zhifang, a disciple of Mei Lanfang's early teacher Wu Lingxian. Mei Lanfang also had an impression of this girl. She is a generous woman who is neither humble nor overbearing, a bit stubborn and serious, and he admires her very much. So, that year, he married 15-year-old Fu Zhifang. In fact, the Mei family originally intended to make Fu Zhifang their concubine, but Fu Zhifang's mother did not agree. In the presence of a matchmaker, she said that the young lady of the Mei family could not give birth to a child. No matter what status Fu Zhifang holds after entering the house, no one dares to underestimate her. Finally, they decided to marry Fu Zhifang. After marriage, they and Wang Minghua were on an equal footing and did housework together.

Marriage in ancient times is not what we can imagine now. At that time, the weight of love was very light, just like a grain of sand or a drop of water in marriage. There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the greatest is the last one. The ultimate purpose of concluding two surnames is to pass on the incense. Although people's hearts are fleshy, they cannot meet the expectations of their families. Therefore, no matter how helpless and distressed Mei Lanfang was, she could not say "no" to the family's mission. Now, he just hopes that the two women can live in harmony and understand each other.

In fact, after Wang Minghua came in, Fu Zhifang spent some time with her. Wang Minghua is an open-minded and generous person. After learning that Mei Lanfang and Fu Zhifang were married, she never complained again. After Fu Zhifang came in, he regarded her as his sister. Soon she gradually retired, leaving all the housework to Fu Zhifang. Fu Zhifang also respects Wang Minghua very much. After her first child was born, she even gave it to Wang Minghua to raise, intending to let it grow up like Wang Minghua's child. After the full moon, Wang Minghua returned the child to Fu Zhifang and sewed a small hat for the child. It can be said that they are not wrong, just as Mei Lanfang hopes, they are harmonious, equal and loving.

But this is not what May’s party wants. The smoother Fu Zhifang lives in the Mei family and the more favored she is by Mei Lanfang, the higher her status and power in the Mei family will be.

However, Fu Zhifang is not a gentle and patient woman. The difference is that she is strong-willed, decisive and quick, and often disagrees with Mei's party. This led to conflicts between her and the party girl. Many party girls dislike Fu Zhifang, including Qi Rushan and Feng Gengguang, the seniors in charge of Mei Lanfang's finances.

Competition of different viewpoints is surging. Qi Rushan and Feng Gengguang not only hope that the marriage between Mei and Meng will bring huge benefits, but also hope to divert Mei Lanfang's attention and favor, and use this to contain and control Fu Zhifang. They believe it will succeed. Because Meng Xiaodong's love and desire for Mei Lanfang cannot be deceived, and Mei Lanfang's appreciation and love for Meng Xiaodong are beyond words. The man loves his concubine, so he falls into his own heart.

Everyone is trying their best. I just forgot about the innocent Meng Xiaodong in this game, she is a loser. She just met someone, fell in love with someone, and then fell in love with someone, just like all the girls in the world. It's that simple and clear, she doesn't hide her emotional eyes, she doesn't want to hurt anyone, and she doesn't want to miss anyone. She even hoped that this little soul would remain silent, and it would be a good thing to secretly taste and review in the dark. I never thought that when "The Prince and the Dancer" came out, a cold iron chain would be involved, imprisoning the originally sweet and confused love, and cutting off my lifelong lovesickness. She's just a shiny pawn. In everyone's eyes, there is no other use. They seem to have forgotten that they are not qualified to decide other people's lives, nor are they qualified to forget that this innocent girl is also a caring person. She'll get hurt too. She would be sad and cry late at night.

She just wanted to protect a love tenderly, but she never thought that her love would be realized in this way.
