Chapter 27 Yan Jupeng's miserable fate

A few days ago, Zhang Zhiyun, Yan Huizhu's direct disciple, got together with some old friends and talked about it, starting from Yan Shaopeng, Yan Huizhu and Yan Jupeng. Mr. Chen Dingshan said: "In the early days of Yan Jupeng, his popularity surpassed that of Yu Shuyan." This sentence is absolutely true.When Yan Jupeng did not go to sea in the early years of the Republic of China, the author heard him sing "Fenhe Bay" with Shang Xiaoyun in Beiping Fushoutang, "I live in Longmen, Jiangzhou County", and I sang it with my real voice, full of energy. Satisfied with the work and the tune, Yu Shuyan and Zhang Boju sat under the stage to listen to the opera, and they didn't realize that they were praised by the festival, and they sighed that they were not as good.

It was the first time for Ju Peng to go south after going to sea. He and Mei Lanfang were performing on the same stage at the same time. We specially invited the piano ticket master Chen Twelve Yanheng to play the piano. , became famous.While Ju Peng was complacent, he lost his temper and broke up with Chen Twelve.When he returned to Peiping after the expiry of the term, the violinist changed to Guo Shaomei (Guo Meichen's nephew, everyone called him Guo Wu), expressing his boycott of Chen Twelve, creating his own tune, and advocating that the tune should be the same as the word.Later, he sang "Eight Great Worthy Kings" in "Curse the Palace" and "Unspoken" in "Let Xuzhou". There are a few famous pianos in Liyuan, everyone shakes their heads, and no one dares to serve Yan Sanye.Yan divided the old Tan school into the old Tan school and the old Tan school, claiming to be the successor of the old Tan school, and imitating Tan Jiaotian in everything he said and acted.Old Tan has a hobby of sniffing snuff, so he also has to get a "Xinjiapi" snuff bottle in his bosom, and take it out to smell it when he has nothing to do.So as soon as you enter the theatre, you have to wash your nose first like Lao Tan.Ju Peng was born with a Western-shaped face (short and wide), so the high square scarf he wears is specially made a little higher, and the beard is very short.Some mean people say that he has a tall hat, a broad face, a short beard, washes his nose, and pretends to be a grandson. He is named "Yan Wuzi", which is extremely mean.

Ju Peng has a special skill in singing, no matter how twisted his singing voice is, he will never turn his words backwards.So someone gave him another nickname, called him "five-fang vowel".He looked down on Ma Lianliang the most, saying that he was poor and vulgar and full of words, which was extremely contemptible.There has been a rift between Yan Jupeng and his wife Gao Yi'an since the night of their bridal chamber.According to Meng Xiaoru, a famous Xusheng who cooperated with Mei Lanfang in the early days, said to me: "Yan, on the night of high festivities, according to the Manchurian custom, the bride sits cross-legged on the Kang Kang and walks up and down. At the end of the night, when people are scattered, Ju Peng enters the bridal chamber and picks up her head covering. Suddenly he found that the bride had no head, and the head was placed between his knees. He was startled and fell down. When he woke up, he was afraid that his eyes were blind and he would keep it secret. Therefore, he slapped her hand and did not get married."

Later, the brothers and sisters of Shaopeng were born, and the husband and wife have always been in harmony with each other, parted ways, and each had their own happiness.Among the famous women in Peking, Gao Yi'an had made a name for himself, and there were frequent anecdotes.Later, Gao Yi'an simply joined the film industry and filmed "A Dream of the Old Capital" with Hong Shen in Beiping. From then on, Yan and Gao broke even further, and they both insisted on divorce.Later, through the mediation of relatives and friends, they were separated temporarily, and the children did what they wanted according to their father and mother.

Shaopeng has been fascinated by Peking Opera since he was a child, and has a strong interest in it. However, he is extremely disgusted with Naifu's singing style, which is based on the accent, the sentences are beautiful and rhyming, and the rhythm is desolate; Follow up and copy, and take notes.Everyone also nicknamed him "Ma Lianliang's Back View".Several times he wanted to secretly pay homage to Ma's family, but even his confidant Ju Pengzhi was shabby and refused to nod.Later, I really couldn't stand Shaopeng's poverty, so I had to be recorded as a registered disciple.Ju Peng is the one who pays most attention to pronouncing words with four tones of yin and yang. It is inevitable for a man to have an unvirtuous wife and son. A virtuous man like Yao and Shun still has Danzhu.However, his son didn't live up to his expectations, and he wanted to bow down to Ma Datong, who had the most words. It was really hard for the old father to let go. This was what he told his friend Barrister Sandoro himself.

Ju Peng has always loved a pair of precious daughters, Hui Zhu and Hui Lan.But the Yan sisters love vanity and fashion, and handed over a few handkerchiefs. They are all social ladies and masters in romantic affairs.These people mingled together to show off their heads, to be jealous, and scandals were repeated frequently.Ju Peng is an old-fashioned person, he can't understand his daughter's bold style, and no one will listen to Guan Guan, so he has no choice but to apply for a job in Shanghai to sing an opera while hiding.Unexpectedly, Yuanjia Road is narrow, and Huizhu also came to Shanghai to sing under the banner of "Meimen Master".To say that Huizhu is a high-achieving student of Meimen is not unrelated, but most of her stuff is taught by Zhu Guifang, and Boss Mei occasionally gives pointers.Huizhu even said that even Mei's fashion drama "Deng Xiagu" will have a section.There are only two Mei fashion dramas, "Deng Xiagu" and "A Wisp of Tusk". In "Deng", Cheng Jixian played the role of aunt. This drama may not be true.Although Huizhu's appearance is not charming and charming, but after the colorful decorations, she is also a soft sister-in-law Xiuping. In addition, she is extremely intelligent and her singing and martial arts are not weak, so she became a hit in Shanghai.

Ju Peng saw that he couldn't sing with his daughter in Shanghai, so he hid in Nanjing to sing.Feeling helpless in my heart, my voice became more and more useless, and I had to rely on my fake ghost voice to deal with it.Later, E Lugong, a well-known barrister in Shanghai, went to Wuhu to investigate a case. He heard Ju Peng sing "Lianyingzhai" (with "Baidi City"), and his sick bed was dying, feeling so desolate that he almost burst into tears.Back in Shanghai, he told Huizhu about Naifu Yanjian's depression, poverty and misery.Finally, sisters Huizhu still missed the love between father and daughter, and rushed to Wuhu to take her father back to Shanghai, where she lived in seclusion.On the red carpet, I never heard the tone of voice again.Occasionally, Huizhu sings "Eighteen Tears", "Second Entry to the Palace", or "Let Xuzhou", which can be faked.

It is said that later Yan Huizhu married Jiangnan Yuwu. During the "Red Guards" rebellion, Yan Huizhu couldn't bear all kinds of insults and was forced to put on palace clothes and hang herself to death.It is difficult to tell the truth from rumors from afar, since Ms. Zhang Zhiyun has a teacher-student relationship with Huizhu, she knows everything about Huizhu, which is better than rumors.
