Xiao Xiaoye's incident of breaking into Qingsong Bookstore suddenly became a hot topic among people after dinner. What everyone lamented the most was that Qingsong Bookstore had so many guards, which was really unexpected.
Since Xin You took over, first "Painted Skin" and then "Journey to the West", the sales of the two story books have made Qingsong Bookstore famous. Even if they don't know about the belongings moved from Shaoqing's mansion, many people are jealous The heat in my heart gave rise to twisted thoughts.
As soon as this incident came out, those who were ready to make a move immediately calmed down.
If Qingsong Bookstore really dares to kill someone, he will die!
That day, Duan Shaoqing went to the office, and on his way out, a colleague couldn't help but sigh to him: "Duan Shaoqing, my niece is really amazing. More than a dozen gangsters robbed the bookstore, and there were many deaths and injuries, but no one survived."
Duan Shaoqing chuckled, but his face darkened as soon as he got on the carriage.
A small bookstore has more than a hundred guards. Is this a waste of money?
When he thought about where the money came from, Duan Shaoqing became even more heartbroken.
This also sounded the alarm for him. It seemed that starting from the bookstore would not work. If he wanted to save the girl's life, he needed to be more cautious.
In the palace, a young eunuch handed the book wrapped in cloth to the eunuch Sun Yan with both hands: "Godfather, this is Mr. Songling's new story "Journey to the West"."
Emperor Xingyuan had previously expressed his interest in the stories written by Mr. Songling. As a servant of Emperor Xingyuan, Sun Yan had already told the people below to pay attention to Mr. Songling's new book.
"It's doing well." Sun Yan asked casually, "How is Qingsong Bookstore doing lately?"
He was quite impressed by the owner of Qingsong Bookstore. You must know that this Miss Kou was rewarded by the emperor.
Being able to be respected by the eunuch Sun Yan, the little chamberlain is also smart and has already found out the excitement of the past few days: "As soon as Mr. Song Ling's new book was released, the business of Qingsong Bookstore was booming, and thieves were even attracted for this reason. Fortunately, the bookstore has many guards. Not only did the thieves fail to succeed, they also ended up in jail and lost their lives..."
After hearing what the young chamberlain said, Sun Yan was very curious: "A dozen bandits were caught in one fell swoop. How many guards did they have?"
"I heard there were hundreds of people!"
Sun Yan clicked his tongue.
A bookstore has hundreds of guards?
For a moment, he didn't know whether to call Miss Kou brave or stupid, so Sun Yan checked the new book and went to see Emperor Xingyuan.
Emperor Xingyuan did not slack off because the Chinese New Year was about to come. Sun Yan accompanied him silently, and only presented "Journey to the West" to him after he finished processing a batch of memorials and stood up to do some activities.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Song Ling from Qingsong Bookstore has published a new book." Sun Yan lowered his head slightly and held up the storybook with both hands.
Emperor Xingyuan wanted to take it over and take a look at it, but thinking about his experience of staying up late watching "Painted Skin", he decided to finish processing the folds on the eucalyptus.
Storybooks are like this. As soon as you start reading, you want to finish it quickly. If you haven’t read it yet, you can endure it.
In the afternoon, Emperor Xingyuan finally finished his work. As soon as he touched the script, a minister came to report something urgent. The script he picked up was put down again and buried in the eucalyptus slip.
Seeing this, Sun Yan didn't remind him again.
He wished that the emperor could use the time he spent reading leisurely books to rest.
Xin You noticed that a servant came to buy books.
Even if these chamberlains dress like ordinary people, their words and deeds are still different.
The only uncertainty was which palace the chamberlain who came to buy books came from.
However, since the emperor ordered Mr. He to check Mr. Song Ling specifically, the people around the emperor will definitely send Mr. Song Ling's new book to the emperor in order to show off. It is only a matter of time before "Journey to the West" is seen.
If you are unlucky and there is no movement in the palace, then you can only remind him through Master He without showing any trace.
But this is a last resort, and Xin You doesn't want to come to this point.
Fortunately, she knows that many things cannot be rushed and require patience.
What worries everyone at Qingsong Bookstore right now is the book readers who have finished reading "Journey to the West" and come here every day to ask for the second volume.
These people are mainly students from the Imperial College. These students take advantage of the convenience of being nearby. They can go there in an afternoon and ask questions when they come in.
When will the second volume of "Journey to the West" be released?
It was not yet noon. Liu Zhou glanced at the supervisors walking towards the bookstore and complained to Shopkeeper Hu with a frown on his face: "What I'm most afraid of now is noon and evening. I can't cope with it. I really can't cope with it!"
Shopkeeper Hu gave Liu Zhou a slap in the face: "You are such a mouthful, hurry up and greet the guests."
When I had so much time to count ants, why did I ever think about those young people who would clog bookstores every day, crying and clamoring to buy new books that have not yet been released?
Although this is trouble, it is also a sweet trouble.
Liu Zhou complained on his lips, but he actually thought so in his heart, and smiled warmly at the students who walked in.
"Little brother, don't just laugh. When will the second volume of "Journey to the West" be released?"
"This little guy really doesn't know..."
"I want to see your boss, Miss Kou!" The leading boy slapped the counter.
Liu Zhou knew the identity of this young man. He was the grandson of the prime minister's family and he could not be offended.
Fortunately, the boss is best at dealing with these dudes.
Liu Zhou glanced at Shopkeeper Hu and saw that Shopkeeper Hu had no intention of objecting. He said with a smile, "Your honor, please wait a moment. We will send a message to our boss right now."
Zhang Xu nodded with satisfaction.
Xin You received the news and went to the front.
The students waiting in the library were still a little impatient, but when the girl in the silver cloak walked in calmly, most of the students' impatience suddenly disappeared.
Well, mainly because I thought of Miss Kou having hundreds of guards, my mind suddenly became clearer.
When Zhang Xu faced Xin You, he completely lost his arrogance: "Miss Kou, I finally waited for you to come."
"I heard Mr. Zhang has something to do with me?"
"It's nothing, just asking, when will the second volume of "Journey to the West" be released?"
"Probably after the Lantern Festival."
Zhang Xu touched his palms and said, "Miss Kou is still happy! Ahem, but it's still early before the Lantern Festival. Can Miss Kou reveal what happened to the monkey after it was crushed under the Five Elements Mountain?"
"Yes, has the monkey escaped and taken revenge?" the supervisors asked one after another.
Xin You glanced at these teenagers inadvertently, and his eyes fell on one boy and stopped moving.
The young man stood at the outermost edge. He had an ordinary figure and appearance, but Xin You, who was used to seeing all kinds of scenes, changed his expression.
In the picture that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, the boy was hit by a collapsed wall, with only his head and face exposed.
But this was not the main reason why Xin You couldn't control her expression in front of others. What really frightened her was the large collapsed house in the background of the picture, as well as the countless people who were buried and smashed.
This is not an accident for one person, but a disaster for many people!
There were so many people crowded in the library, but Xin You felt cold to the bone.
This was the first time she had seen so many dead and injured people, and she could not keep her expression straight.
