The businessman asked cautiously: "What kind of show are you playing?"
Li Shui said: "Don't worry, I'll find someone to write a rough plot."
The businessman looked at Li Shui in confusion and thought: Is he really going to perform on stage?
Li Shui wanted to act in a play to deceive Matt. In order to make the play more realistic, he planned to find someone to write a script first to make the plot more realistic.
Li Shui took the businessman back to Shangjun Courtyard and asked the printing house directly whose book sales had been higher recently.
Someone from the printing house said: "Chun Yujia's folk tales have been selling well recently. The sixth volume has been published and is being reprinted."
Li Shui was amused: "I didn't expect that old guy Chun Yuyue is very old-fashioned, but his housekeeper is quite talented in telling stories."
Li Shui asked for a copy and flipped through it. The story was a bit like a fairy tale from later generations.
Li Xin asked Li Shui in confusion: "Brother Huai, what are you going to do? Why can't I understand?"
Li Shui smiled and said: "Don't worry, you will understand soon."
Li Xin stretched his body and said, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to follow you around. When your plan is finalized, let me know. I've already arrived at Shangjun Courtyard, so I'll go have some drinks first."
Li Shui snorted: "That's okay. But I plan to go to Chunyu Yue's house."
As soon as Li Xin heard that he was going to find Chun Yuyue, he immediately became energetic: "Looking for my sister-in-law? Then I have to go. It's been a long time since I paid homage to my sister."
Afterwards, Li Shui and Li Xin both laughed.
…………
Half an hour later, Li Shui and Li Xin opened the door of Chunyu's house.
Chunyu Yue looked at them with an unhappy face: "What are you doing here?"
Li Xin said: "I'm here to pay homage to my sister."
Chunyu Yue suddenly became angry: "Come to worship my sister again? You have worshiped five times this month. Have you finished?"
Li Xin looked aggrieved: "I worship five times a month, is that much?"
Chunyu Yue jumped angrily: "But today is only the sixth day of the Lunar New Year."
Li Shui laughed so hard beside him that his stomach ached.
Li Xin sighed quietly, with a look of pity on his face: "I am about to leave for the war. After leaving today, I don't know when I will be able to return home. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and good or bad luck is uncertain. Perhaps, I will no longer be able to worship my sister. .today……"
Chunyu Yue turned sideways and said helplessly: "Go, go, I am too lazy to argue with you about this."
Li Xin said with a smile: "Yes."
Soon, Li Xin's howl came from Li's spirit: "Sister, recently there is a Xiongnu kingdom that has plundered our north. There is also a Peacock kingdom that is eyeing our Qin Dynasty."
"My sister-in-law is as fierce as a tiger and wants to bribe the enemy with beauty and money. Li Xin despises this kind of behavior and has already taken the initiative to ask your Majesty to go to war against the Huns. Today, I came here specifically to say goodbye..."
Chunyu Yue was so angry that he almost fainted: he knew that this Shu Zi had nothing good to say.
He gritted his teeth and did not argue with Li Xin.
Recently, Li Xinxue has become more and more arrogant, arguing and arguing, often leaving Chunyu Yue speechless, which makes Chunyu Yue very unhappy.
He looked at Li Shui: "Are you here to worship too?"
Li Shuigan laughed: "That's not true. I'm here to discuss cooperation. I plan to publish a book recently and need to find someone to write it."
Chunyu Yue stroked his beard and said with satisfaction: "Well, I don't know what this book is about? If it is to promote etiquette and enlightenment, then it doesn't hurt for me to write it."
Li Shui was stunned for a moment, then laughed dryly: "Sister-in-law, I misunderstood. I'm not here to see you, I'm here to see Chun Yujia."
Chunyu Yue's face turned livid with anger: What the hell, what does this mean? I can't write it. Did the housekeeper in my mansion write it? This is too insulting.
Li Shui explained: "My book is for the lower class, and the content is vulgar. If my sister-in-law were to write it, it would be a disgrace to my brother-in-law."
After hearing this, Chunyu Yue nodded slightly, feeling that it made sense.
After all... what kind of serious book can Huai Guzi write?
He said to Li Shui: "That's all, you can do what you want, I won't entertain you."
Afterwards, Chunyu Yue returned to his study to study.
Li Shui found Chunyu Jia.
When Chunyu Jia heard that the banished immortal came to him to make an appointment for a manuscript, he was immediately elated.
These days, Chunyu Jia and Shangjun Bieyuan are cooperating happily and publishing one book after another.
I have made a lot of money, and more importantly, I have spread the stories I heard in my childhood. This sense of accomplishment is rare.
Chunyu Jia was eager to get ready and asked Li Shui, "I wonder what story the banished immortal wants me to write?"
Li Shui said: "This story is a serial. I plan to publish it in Mr. Fu Yao's newspaper. By then, your name will be spread to everyone."
Chunyu Jia suddenly felt hot in his heart.
Then, Li Shui talked about the general content.
Chunyu Jia was slightly startled and said, "Is this... okay?"
Li Shui said: "Okay, why not? Just write with confidence."
Chunyu Jia scratched his head: "Then try it, little man."
Li Shui said: "Don't worry, just write the beginning today."
Chunyu Jia said oh.
The next morning, Chunyu Jia stared at the two dark circles and found Li Shui and handed him over.
After reading it, Chunyu Jia was very satisfied and handed it to Fu Yao, who had been waiting beside him: "What do you think?"
Fu Yao grinned: "It's really amazing."
He handed the manuscript to the workers in the printing factory: "Print it immediately."
The workers responded, and the newspapers started printing.
On this day, the newsboy shouted along the street: "The banished immortal is going to use counterintuitive tactics to deal with the Xiongnu and Peacock Kingdoms. The banished immortal is going to use counterintuitive tactics..."
The news about the Peacock Kingdom and the Xiongnu Kingdom has spread throughout Xianyang. The people were very worried.
Now after hearing the newsboy's cry, they naturally bought the newspaper.
After reading it, these people were very puzzled: How could anyone shout out before using countermeasures? Isn't that revealing? The act of banishing an immortal is really confusing.
Chunyu Yue even went to Li Shui specially, took the newspaper and said to Li Shui: "The secret has been leaked, the newspaper has leaked the secret. Who wrote this article? Hand it over immediately. Also, who allowed this article to be published?" "
Li Shui coughed dryly and said, "Chun Yujia was the one who wrote the article, and the ones responsible for reviewing it, weren't those doctors? This matter seems to have something to do with you, sister-in-law."
Chunyu Yue was stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly: "Chun Yujia and the doctors never imagined that you would really leak the secret in advance."
Chunyu Yue sighed: "Huai Guzi, what exactly do you think?"
Li Shui said: "It's very simple. If the secret is revealed in advance, the sales volume of the newspaper will be higher."
Chunyu Yue's eyes widened: "The most important thing for the country is to sacrifice and fight. Is the conquest of the Peacock Kingdom not as important as the sales of your newspaper?"
Li Shui smiled and said: "The conquest of the Peacock Kingdom is important, but the sales of newspapers are also important. There is no conflict between the two. As for why I leaked the secret in advance, the doctor will soon know. We might as well wait and see."
…………
On this day, many people read the news in the newspapers eagerly.
The newspaper said that the banished immortal planned to send a warrior to pretend to be a death row prisoner and enter the prison. Then this death row prisoner will help Matt from the Hun Kingdom escape...
In the afternoon of that day, Shangjun Courtyard sent a samurai into the prison with great fanfare.
This person is none other than Xiang Yu's little follower, Xiang Zhuang.
When Xiang Zhuang knew that he was selected, he once asked Xiang Yu if he wanted to take the opportunity to contact the Xiongnu Kingdom.
Xiang Yu pondered for a long time, then shook his head and gave up, and warned Xiang Zhuang: "Chasing deer in the world is an internal matter within the Central Plains. It is a stupid and stupid strategy to attract help from barbarians."
"If you are lucky enough to succeed, you will have to be controlled by the barbarians as a monarch, and you will be depressed. If you fail, you will become a laughing stock and be laughed at by future generations."
"Isn't the lesson of the Western Zhou Dynasty being conquered by the Quanrong brutal enough?"
Xiang Zhuang was frightened and nodded repeatedly.
Actually... Xiang Yu didn't agree to borrow troops from the Huns, so he naturally looked down on the barbarians.
But more importantly, he felt that his rebellion would definitely not be successful. In this case, it was better not to bother.
I have to say that since Xiang Yu got that sword, his whole person has become much better...
On the way to death row, Xiang Zhuang was surrounded by many people.
After seeing Xiang Zhuang, they all had mysterious smiles on their faces.
"It seems that what the newspaper said is right. Isn't this Xiang Zhuang? Xiang Zhuang from the Liu Brothers. He is very good at acting. It is said that he can also act."
"Well, it seems that I will buy more of this newspaper in the future. This must be because some people in the DPRK got reliable news, so they published it in advance."
"I wonder if Xiang Zhuang can succeed. Will the envoy of the Huns be fooled?"
Many people on the street were talking about it.
Xiang Zhuang was taken to prison. Then by "coincidence", he and Matt were locked in the same cell.
When Matt saw a tall man coming in, he was a little scared and shrank towards the corner.
Xiang Zhuang also met Westerners for the first time. He looked at Matt up and down for a while, then asked quietly: "Why is your hair yellow?"
Matt looked at Xiang Zhuang with a confused look.
Xiang Zhuang knew that Matt couldn't understand Qin language. But he followed the script and started getting angry.
He kicked Matt: "I'm talking to you."
Matt fell to the ground, mumbling.
Xiang Zhuang couldn't understand what he was saying, but he could tell from his expression that he was begging for mercy.
Xiang Zhuang feels a little boring. This guy looks tall and powerful, why is he so timid?
He found an excuse to beat Matt again, then sat on the hay bale against the wall.
Matt huddled in the corner, motionless, far away from Xiang Zhuang. He was really scared.
Later in the night, everyone fell asleep.
Matt was still awake. He looked at the moonlight outside through the window, and suddenly remembered his hometown.
Matt used to be a slave, working during the day and locked in a cage at night.
How many times had he spent the long nights looking at the moonlight like this?
The life of the slaves was difficult, but Matt never expected that they would welcome the savior from the East.
"Rescuer" is what these slaves specifically use to call Shatilik and Moton.
The two brothers took people with them, rescued slaves everywhere, and took slaves to attack cities and territories.
The rescued slaves naturally joined the Huns' army and pledged their loyalty to the death.
Some people even devoutly worshiped Chengsha Tire and Maodun as their saviors.
Matt is a very religious person.
So when Mao Dun asked who knew Sanskrit and could be sent as an envoy to the Peacock Kingdom, Matt volunteered to go to the Peacock Kingdom thousands of miles away.
Everything was going well and he was treated politely in the Peacock Kingdom. Unexpectedly, on the way back to his hometown, he was captured by Qin soldiers.
well……
At this time, Matt suddenly remembered something. During the day, the man named Ban Xian said that he was not caught by chance.
"What does this mean? Have they been targeting me for a long time? Damn it, these Orientals are so cunning." Matt thought secretly in his heart.
Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound in the cell.
He was stunned for a moment, turned around and found that Xiang Zhuang was poaching.
Matt's eyes widened.
He saw that Xiang Zhuang had cut off a large piece of wall.
The cell was exposed to wind and rain, and the walls were already somewhat loose. And Xiang Zhuang was very strong. Sometimes he would use his cough to cover up and hit the wall with his elbow, often making a deep hole.
Soon, Xiang Zhuang dug a hole and then got out carefully.
After Xiang Zhuang went out, Matt couldn't sleep even more.
He paused with his ears tilted to make sure everyone around him was asleep, then he carefully moved to the entrance of the cave and looked outside.
It's a free world out there.
Matt's heart beat violently.
He gritted his teeth and got out of the small hole.
Ah, the air outside is fragrant.
Matt opened his arms and breathed in ecstasy.
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly: "Who is it?"
Matt was so scared that he almost peed his pants. He quickly lay down on the ground.
Then, he spotted a group of patrollers coming not far away.
But...the patrolman is not here for him.
These people carried lanterns and grabbed a person in front.
Matt looked at it and was surprised to find that this person was Xiang Zhuang who beat him up not long ago.
Xiang Zhuang was arrested by patrollers, and the streets became deserted again.
Matt carefully sneaked here close to the wall.
He wanted to find a safe place.
Matt didn't know that this street looked safe, but it was actually full of eyes.
That night, many people did not sleep, but stared outside.
They saw Matt and watched him secretly and excitedly, as if they were looking at some rare animal.
These people had foreknowledge that Matt would be released on purpose.
Matt wanted to leave the city. He knew that the city gate would only open at dawn. He wanted to lurk near the city gate in advance. Otherwise, after dawn, his appearance would be completely different from that of the Qin people, and it would be difficult to move.
But... there are always people on the streets.
Matt found that there were homeless people on several streets, holding a large piece of paper and reading the words on it by the light of a small fire.
Matt didn't know that the newspaper these homeless people read happened to be about him.
Alas, Matt suffered the disadvantage of not knowing how to read.
Being uneducated is really pitiful.
