The autumn night was as cold as water, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if heavy rain was pouring down.
Sure enough, in less than half a quarter of an hour, thunder was rolling in the sky, and the rain poured down like a torrent.
It was still raining coldly in the dark night, and the souls of the literati were broken, just like the freezing rainy night, broken in every drop of rain, which really made people sad.
Nangong Yuanyi also used decisive methods to find out the stronghold that created this public opinion. The first batch of literati scolded him for being an unknown scholar. Why should he arrest them? The books they sold were not from their hands, so Nangong Yuanyi ordered people to follow the clues. , review them one by one, and make it clear that no one can give in to anything, and they must be convinced.
So after an hour, a group of literati who were watching the commotion and commotion were released. Those who were not released looked envious at those who were released. Finally, someone couldn't stand it anymore and recruited the people who organized this malicious attack on Nangong Yuanyi and An Xiyue. The culprit.
Hongfuzhai Bookstore is a large-scale glaze factory. They operate in a wide range of areas. Among them, printing books into volumes and then retailing them in the market is a very profitable business. Moreover, the scale of Hongfuzhai is large enough to cover the entire business overnight. Tens of thousands of printed copies were produced, and the lifelike picture books sold on the streets came from here.
Some people reward these scholars with a minimum of ten taels per article, asking them to create selling points and arouse public opinion. They don't have to worry about anything else and just collect money to do things. They rack their brains and work very hard. They are fools if they don't earn money.
Not all people are so despicable. There are dedicated people who are responsible for pulling strings. Scholars who have a little ink in their stomachs and are full of "sex" in their minds ask for high prices. Even if they know that they will offend people, they are willing to give it a try for money. , As a result, more and more people are being manipulated in secret.
The articles are becoming more and more explicit, and some people even start to write obscene poems and draw obscene pictures in order to improve their selling points and get a large reward, which has a very bad influence.
These people have studied hard for more than ten years, and even ended their academic careers within a few decades.
However, even if their heads were filled with strange writings and paintings, they were restrained in the cradle in half a day.
When Deputy Commander Li led his people to the Hongfuzhai study room, there were some literati inside who were still working tirelessly on compiling the first draft. Although Deputy Commander Li did not know many words, he knew some simple words and pictures.
Deputy Commander Li even cursed: "You scum among the civil servants, you have forgotten all the etiquette, justice and shame taught to you by Confucius."
Several of the volumes have not yet been completed and printed, and they are all pages of filth. Deputy Commander Li felt that these scholars were really imaginative. The prince was a hero who saved the beauty, but they turned him into a prostitute.
The Crown Prince was kind to him, and now he only had Lord Nangong to follow his lead, so he showed no mercy and led his men to destroy Hongfu Zhai. As for the boss behind Hongfu Zhai, Deputy Commander Li did not dare to touch him.
In a fit of anger, Deputy Commander Li packed up all these books and printed copies and sent them to Nangong Yuanyi.
After seeing it, Nangong Yuanyi just pursed his lips and smiled, with cold eyes. How much the people behind the scenes hated them and wanted to destroy their reputations, so they paid such a high price. He could be shameless, but An Xiyue No, Nangong Yuanyi later asked the names of the original authors and ordered them to be imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment to await trial.
