After King Li fell into the water and was rescued, he became furious. He thought that Luo Muqing could not see the situation clearly and thought that he was the daughter of the prime minister's house and dared to go against him.
So he clamored to divorce her, and waited in leisurely time for Luo Muqing, who had no support from the Chu family, to kneel down and beg for mercy, crying in pain.
Luo Muqing originally married Prince Li to relax Chu's father's vigilance and take the opportunity to look for evidence. Now that Chu's father was in law, she was too lazy to argue and simply made peace with King Li.
Needless to say, King Li was caught off guard and aggrieved.
Just as the news of the two's reconciliation spread throughout Yanjing, a decree came from the palace: King Jiang and Luo Muqing were ordered to become husband and wife and to choose a date to get married.
Manjing was in an uproar.
This ends this volume.
"What's going on? Why do you want them to get married? Isn't King Jiang the most beloved son of the Holy Emperor? Could it be that he has already investigated Madam Luo's identity and knows that she is the famous master of Qianji Pavilion in the world?"
Jian Hang was full of questions and couldn't answer them. If he wanted to see the next volume, he could only wait seven days.
Alas, when will this end?
Can't you just finish writing it?
Just as he was regretting it, he remembered that he had also bought a mountain poster. He hurriedly took it out from under the book and opened this new thing called a mountain poster.
At the top of the right side of the newspaper was the eye-catching three characters "Mountain Poster", and next to it was a circular emblem with a mountain and a sea in the middle.
——This is Xu Chengyue’s idea to design a recognizable logo for their newspaper.
This newspaper is divided into large and small rectangular sections. Although the characters are small, they do not appear messy and are very organized.
The article at the top occupies a large section, and the title is also very eye-catching. It can be seen that the editor wants to highlight its meaning.
——Tang Dynasty version of today’s headlines.
This article is about a relatively important decree issued by the imperial court recently. This article first writes about the relevant content of the decree. Then he explained its meaning and discussed its benefits to the people and the changes it brought about in people's livelihood from all aspects. It was quite easy to understand.
The most rare thing is that the author of this article does not bring any personal subjective assumptions, but only explains objectively.
You should know that most of the current articles are interpretations of the author's own views and have a very strong subjective consciousness.
This article completely breaks away from this kind of writing. It is not about my own views, but about the decree itself.
As a scholar, Jian Hang naturally knew it, but he understood that the purpose of the author of this article was to let people in the world who did not read much know the policies issued by the imperial court that were closely related to everyone.
He looked in the direction of the signature below the title, and sure enough it read "Author: Yue Ming".
It’s really him! Jian Hang couldn't help but sigh.
The princes in the imperial court were of supreme power, but many of them believed that the common people were as stupid as pigs and dogs and could not understand the truth at all. They only needed to be driven by law enforcers and listen to the orders of saints.
But Yueming didn't think so. He broke apart all these principles and crushed them into pieces. He was afraid that some people wouldn't understand, so he explained them word by word.
He doesn't even have much sentimental concern for the country and the people, as if he naturally thinks that this is something that the people should know and can know.
How...
Jian Hang's heart was complicated. Although he had read Yue Ming's books before, he didn't think highly of him. Even when those scholars said slanderous words, he had some agreement in his heart, thinking that he was just a scumbag and a sensationalist. .
However, this article completely broke his view and told him that he is the truly shallow and ignorant person.
It was like a slap on the face from afar.
He took it for granted. Those absurdities were just superficial. The real Yue Ming was magnanimous, open-minded and farsighted. How could such a person be greedy for money and gain? That only shows that he is not a person seeking fame and reputation.
Jian Hang continued to read down. This large article and many other small articles were connected into a large section, surrounded by a large frame marked with news.
Most of the other articles in it are similar to the first article and talk about other content related to government affairs. It can be seen that the author's writing styles in these articles have traces of imitating the first article. Although they are relatively immature, they are still in style.
He turned over a page, intending to learn from other people's strengths. He listed this mountain poster as a must-read, and he would read it regularly in the future.
——The shopkeeper just now said that the posters of this mountain are on sale every ten days.
As a result, after turning the page, the content inside changed drastically. It was completely different from the previous one. It contained all the family secrets of a wealthy family.
Jian Hang's eyes were dull and his mind was buzzing. He held the newspaper in his hand and fell silent.
The author cleverly (chicken) wisely (thief) did not mention any names, but vaguely used homophonic words instead.
But for a son of an aristocratic family whose first lesson as a child was to memorize family trees, this newspaper was frighteningly straightforward.
It was a tacit understanding between the aristocratic families to keep it secret, and now it was revealed in a small newspaper.
Jian Hang's thoughts were twitching from side to side. While he was rationally admonishing himself that it was not a gentleman to pry into other people's private affairs, he was also feeling faintly excited and couldn't help but want to glance at the newspaper.
This, everyone else has seen it, so it’s okay for him to take a few more glances, right?
After Jian Hang convinced himself, he continued reading with peace of mind.
…
What? What uncle and sister-in-law? Isn't their family famous for its quiet family style? It turned out to be such a mess inside.
Is this talking about Mr. Tian? ! I didn’t see it. He usually spoke sternly when he was scolding them. Are he and his wife actually so interesting? Oh, he is still a strict wife!
Jian Hang felt that he would never be able to look directly at Master Tian again in class.
…
Jian Hang read it from beginning to end and found that in addition to serious news and informal family secrets, there were also other more down-to-earth folklore stories, rumors, customs from various places, etc., which made him admired.
What a strange person who came up with the idea of newspapers!
Scenes similar to this appeared all over Luoyang City.
Master Tian slapped the case and roared: "Shameless bastard! Ruin my reputation!"
Zheng Guogong was secretly glad that the thank you gift he gave earlier was not written in the newspapers and was known to everyone in Luoyang City.
Most of them have nothing to do with it, just watching the lively common people.
"Previously, I thought that the affairs of these big shots had nothing to do with us ordinary people, but seeing what Yueming said, it seems that they are really closely related."
"Who isn't? This is the first time I understand what these laws and decrees are about."
"I told you why Marquis Wu has been patrolling at night recently. It turns out there is a thief! It seems that you need to keep the door tight these days."
"How serious do you think those big families are? It seems that there are a lot of cock-crowding and dog-robbery incidents."
Once the Shan poster was circulated, it became popular in Luoyang City, and everyone who saw it nodded in admiration.
Except for some people whose secrets were revealed.
.
A banquet was being held in a courtyard with winding corridors, rockeries, flowing water, and winding paths.
Everyone exchanged cups and cups, chanted poems and composed poems, and it was very lively.
"Wonderful, savor this poem carefully. It has the style of Mr. Taixuan. With Brother Zhou's talent, I am afraid he will be the next best poet. Come on, I will give Brother Zhou a drink!" someone boasted.
Brother Zhou was tickled by his flattery, and he was secretly proud of himself. He said humbly, "What the hell, my good brother is over-praised."
While everyone was laughing and chatting, he raised his glass and drank it all.
"Brother Zhou, I wonder how the Shanhai Bookstore is doing? Is that guy Yue Ming still writing books?"
I don’t know if the method of resistance they proposed at the last literary meeting was effective.
Someone booed, "It's such a lively occasion, why mention it? Without our support, it would have closed down long ago. I'm afraid Yue Ming wouldn't have gone home to buy sweet potatoes."
"Anyway, no one's friends go to Shanhai Bookstore, and I haven't heard anyone talk about it anymore. It must have closed down."
"Isn't it easy to know the situation? I sent my slaves to keep an eye on it a long time ago." Brother Zhou said proudly.
After that, he called a young man and asked, "Last time I sent you to keep an eye on that mountain and sea library. How is it now?"
The boy bowed down, trembling, not daring to raise his head, and murmured: "Go back to the master, the Shanhai Bookstore is doing better, and they also sell something called a mountain poster, and the humble slave saw many people buying it. "
As soon as these words came out, everything was silent.
In the extreme calm, there seemed to be a "pop" sound, like the sound of a hand brushing across the cheek.
Brother Zhou's face turned as red as pig liver. He really didn't expect such an answer.
"What is a mountain poster? I have never heard of it." Someone asked curiously.
"I'm afraid it's not just a dirty thing like that poisonous book, struggling to the death."
"Go! Buy me one, I want to see what kind of good stuff it is!" Brother Zhou said through gritted teeth.
He was the first to propose the boycott of Shanhai Bookstore. If the business was booming now, wouldn't it be a slap in his face?
The boy was afraid of being implicated, so he hurriedly went out to buy mountain posters.
After a hurried journey, I finally brought the mountain poster back before the owner got angry.
As soon as the mountain poster was presented, a large number of people gathered around to look at it.
They are not curious, they just want to find out the loopholes and scold them even more harshly after understanding.
"Oh, it's just the same. You don't have any literary talent at all. How dare you come out and embarrass yourself? There are a bunch of fools who are flattering you."
"Why are they qualified to discuss government affairs?" The man sneered contemptuously.
Everyone criticized him verbally and wanted to nail the unrepentant Shanhai Bookstore and Shanhai posters to the pillar of shame.
However, when I turned to the next page, everyone who was so angry at the curse fell silent.
Why do the things described above look so familiar? It seems to belong to someone...
Everyone's eyes drifted to one of the onlookers.
The man hid his face and withdrew from the crowd and walked quietly.
Two or three times, several more people left.
Until the article "Uncle and Sister-in-law" appeared, the remaining people finally turned their attention to Brother Zhou who was holding the newspaper in the middle.
No one has heard of this, but judging from the description of his family, the brother-in-law among them seems to be Brother Zhou.
Because the previous things were all true, which further strengthened the credibility of this article, everyone looked at each other in shock.
I didn’t expect that! Brother Zhou also... their family turned out to be like this...
That's not right, it's something they don't even know about. Where did the news about Shanhai Bookstore come from?
If something happens to their family, wouldn't Shanhai Bookstore also get the news?
For a moment, everyone was in danger and hurriedly made excuses to run away.
Brother Zhou crumpled the newspaper with trembling hands, veins popped out in his arms, and his chest heaved violently, as if he was about to faint at the next moment.
How can he know if others don't know? !
He had never done this at all - but the words inside were indeed what he said. He had been thinking about his sister-in-law a lot before, and when he was drunk, he forgot to speak appropriately, thinking that no one would hear it. Thinking of it, actually...
Brother-in-law and sister-in-law are a family marriage, and the natal family is the most protective.
How can he explain to his brother and sister-in-law! Tell your family friends!
Brother Zhou passed away without taking a breath.
The servants were frightened. Those who supported him and those who went out to call for help were in a state of chaos.
