MTL - My Beloved Concubine Only Wants to Eat Melons-Chapter 69

On the second day, Young Master Xiaoyao's new storybook "The Mother of the Righteousness Judges Black and White" was newly launched.

It tells the story of a daughter of a poor family who was unfortunately married to a villain with ostentatious appearance by her relatives. —

It is a chivalrous story about a lady who has the unique insight to distinguish right from wrong. After learning about the situation of the daughter of the family, the lady immediately rescued her, pulled the deceased and the younger generation out of danger, and made the villain get bad rewards.

Seeing that it was half a month before the last story book, the long-awaited readers immediately rushed to the bookstore to buy it after hearing the news.

But in one day, it has been reprinted four times, and all the finished books have been sold out.

And after reading this tortuous and bizarre story, all the readers said hello one after another, shouting cheers!

In addition to storytellers telling stories in various teahouses, there are even opera troupes who have adapted them into playbooks and performed them repeatedly in various Goulan restaurants, which was very popular for several days.

Of course, after the queen mother got the news of the new storybook, she immediately asked someone to buy it back as usual.

And Yan Shu once again took on the role of the exclusive storyteller of Ci'an Palace without any surprises.

But when she finished reading her story vividly, she saw the queen mother was surprised and said, "Isn't this what happened to Hong Tianzong yesterday? The mistress here is Aijia?"

Yan Shu hurriedly smiled and flattered her, "The concubine also looks similar, it should be. After all, besides you, who else has such a chivalrous heart and sharp means!"

The queen mother glanced at her, "You girl, you know how to coax people."

But having said that, after listening to the story for so long, I didn't expect to be the protagonist again, which is still very novel.

The Empress Dowager sighed while thinking, "What does this Young Master Xiaoyao think, to call the Ai family the protagonist?"

Yan Shu hurriedly flattered her, "Because in this story, the most important person is you! You were the one who noticed something wrong in time and discovered Wanjun's injury, and it was you who called for that. Hong Tianzong was punished as he should be, and now Wanjun is too. You have arranged it properly, if you are not the protagonist, who will be?"

It's embarrassing to praise people.

The Queen Mother couldn't help laughing, "Speaking of it, this Young Master Xiaoyao knows how to write. Especially the part about beating people, look, how enjoyable it is to listen to! The Ai family wants to see him."

Um?

Yan Shu was taken aback, the Queen Mother wanted to see Young Master Xiaoyao?

But the Empress Dowager sighed again, "I don't know what age, what kind of personality a person can write so well, Aijia must see him for himself."

Yan Shu was excited, and hurriedly said, "You all know that His Majesty instructed someone to write it, but in fact, the credit is not with Young Master Xiaoyao, so there is no need to praise her so much."

The queen mother said, "That's different. Although the material is ready-made, his writing is good. Look at the lines between the lines, it's so refreshing to read! Especially since Aijia is the main character... Aijia should reward him." Yes."

Yanshu, "..."

Tsk, is this too much flattery?

She hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiaoyao will be very happy when he hears the praise from the empress! It's just that her profession...you know that she has written so many hateful and hateful books, and she is so hated by others! So it must not be easy Come out to meet people. If you summon her hastily and let someone know about it, it may be dangerous to her."

"However, about the reward..."

She coughed and said with a smile, "You can ask His Majesty to hand it over to her."

Tsk tsk, the queen mother has always been generous, so I don't know what reward she will be given.

The queen mother thought about it, nodded her head and sighed, "You are right. Well, having said that, this Young Master Xiaoyao dares to expose so many evil deeds, so he can be regarded as a righteous man."

Yan Shu nodded hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty's words are very true. It is indeed not easy for her to stand up to the curses and resentments of the bad guys by herself without fear of hardships and dangers."

The Queen Mother couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "Someone scolded him?"

Yan Shu nodded again and said, "Yes. Some people have a guilty conscience and take their own seats, or they are jealous that her works are liked by others, and they have been speaking ill of her openly and secretly. As the saying goes, there are many right and wrong people, it is inevitable."

The Queen Mother snorted, and said, "What the **** are you doing doing such a jumping foot? It must be some people with bad morals! Young Master Xiaoyao must not be influenced by them. The more you scold, the more you have to write down."

Yan Shu nodded hurriedly, "Your Majesty said that I believe she will defeat these demons and monsters. After all, there are so many chivalrous and enthusiastic readers like you supporting her."

In fact, these words were just made by her. She did not expect the Queen Mother to hear the words, but said, "It's just support, if you can't see others, it doesn't help much. Why don't you come to something practical."

As he spoke, he ordered the female officer Zhu Shu, "Pass down the decree, to give Mr. Xiaoyao a set of lake pen emblem ink end inkstone, and a hundred taels of gold. Send it to Qianming Palace, and please convey it on behalf of Ai's family, Your Majesty."

Zhu Shu was busy, and led people to Qianming Palace to give the reward.

Yan Shu was so excited that she almost couldn't control it, so she could only bear it again and again, trying her best to calmly praise the big boss, "With your affirmation, Young Master Xiaoyao will definitely be happy."

Ahhh, a set of Hubi emblem, ink and Duanyan, and one hundred taels of gold!

The Queen Mother is really generous!

~~

With the hot sale of "Xinhuaben, The Mistress of Justice, Judging Black and White", people's speculation about the prototype of the story has once again become a boom.

And at this moment, a piece of news appeared in front of everyone in a very timely manner——

Hong Yusheng, the dean of Tiande Academy in Xiangyang, who came to Beijing to participate in the grand meeting of the academy this time, provoked the wrath of the Holy Spirit by letting his son Hong Tianzong wantonly humiliate his wife, Chen Shi, who was a bloodline of the clan, and was sent back to Xiangyang. Bad conduct, was removed from fame.

In addition to being strictly prohibited from taking part in the imperial examination, he was also sentenced to a cane punishment, and was beaten with eighty boards in front of the people in the capital at Caishikou.

It beat Hong Tianzong's **** to pieces.

After being humiliated, the three members of the Hong family returned to Xiangyang in despair.

His wife, Chen Shi, was adopted by the Ankang County Lord as a foster daughter, and she stayed in the capital to start a new life.

…

As soon as the news came out, the readers finally knew who the prototype of the latest story of Mr. Xiaoyao was.

For a moment they couldn't help sighing—this Hong Tian used his fame to commit violence at will, thinking that his wife was a close relative of a criminal minister, so he could bully him at will.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty the Empress Dowager in the palace valued love and righteousness, punished him in anger, and now his future can be regarded as ruined.

Of course, the matter was so uproar, not only the people in the capital, but also the famous Confucians who came to Beijing from other places naturally got the news.

Seeing that the Hong family father and son, who were still in high spirits two days ago, ended up like this, everyone was surprised and surprised.

On this day, taking advantage of the second discussion in Wenyuan Pavilion, the celebrities couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion——

Ji Yuanzhuo, a famous scholar in Jinling, shook his fan and said, "I never thought that a man with a good eloquence could do such a cruel thing to his wife! It's really a waste of reading the sages' books for so many years!"

Yu Jingwei, a master from Nanyang, also nodded and said, "Dean Hong can't even teach his own son well, how can he teach students? Tiande Academy is afraid that the future is bleak!"

Everyone echoed, "Who says it's not!"

After the words fell, Gu Hongbai, the great Confucian of Lanling, asked another question, "But... Speaking of which, who is this Xiaoyaozi from? I heard that his words are always popular in the capital, and every story can be reproduced in reality. Find the prototype. How can a person who writes a storybook be so powerful?"

Immediately, a well-informed person said in a low voice, "Mr. Gu doesn't know something. I heard that this young master Xiaoyao is actually following His Majesty's orders. The materials used are all provided by Jinyiwei, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other places, and the stories he tells are also ordered by His Majesty." I just wrote it, and the purpose is to make some people's evil deeds known to the public, so that the common people and officials can be vigilant."

"I see,"

Mr. Gu stroked his beard and sighed, "Your Majesty is really well-intentioned. It is a blessing for the family and the country to have a wise king."

Everyone joined in one after another.

Someone joked, "Looking at it this way, if the people want to report something and find Mr. Xiaoyao, doesn't that mean they have found His Majesty? In this way, it can be regarded as a window between His Majesty and the people."

Everyone responded with small words, "It makes sense."

From the beginning to the end, Qi Shuguang just listened and didn't say a word.

But I thought in my heart that it turned out that the mistress in the story was her.

It is indeed what she looks like. After all these years, she is still jealous and kind.

also good.

~~

On the morning of the second day, Yu Wenlan was reading the memorial in the imperial study when he saw Zou Mozhong, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, came to him carrying a sack.

One look at the scene and you can tell that this is a letter to "Mr. Xiaoyao".

——Since the storybook became popular, Yan Shu has accumulated a group of loyal readers, many of whom would write letters and send them to the bookstore after reading the storybook, and Zou Mozhong would forward it to him.

When he received the letters at the beginning, he was surprised for her, but gradually, seeing that the letters changed from one or two letters in a month to dozens of letters in half a month, it was a bit of a headache.

— After all... most of these letters are written by men.

Although they all thought that "Young Master Xiaoyao" was also a man, it was not the case!

And although most of them are just expressing their opinions on the story, there are actually people with unscrupulous intentions who express their love for her in words!

—Still thinking she is a man!

However, Yan Shu took it for fun, and read it with gusto every time she received it, completely forgetting about him.

He wanted to stop her for her, but he was afraid that she would not receive the letter and was suspicious. How could Yu Wenlan not have a headache?

Right now, Zou Mozhong smiled at him and said, "Your Majesty, these are letters sent to Young Master Xiaoyao by readers recently. Please send someone to forward them to you."

Yu Wenlan hummed, "Put it there."

Zou Mozhong should be, and reported a few political affairs to him, and then left the imperial study.

It is only morning now, and there is still some time before Yujia will go to Ganlu Hall in the evening, Fu Hai took the initiative to ask for instructions, "Why don't you send these letters to Madam Yipin?"

Yu Wenlan hummed, "Go."

Anyway, I have to send it early and late, especially if it is an eyesore here, I am afraid that it will arouse the curiosity of the ministers later.

Fu Hai responded, picked up the sack and left.

Yu Wenlan continued to read the booklet.

However, the more I look at it, the more I can't stand it.

I couldn't help but ponder in my heart, I don't know if there was an unscrupulous confession to her concubine in that letter?

Tsk...

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Shunzi who was standing by the side suddenly heard a click, and quietly raised his eyes, only to see that it was the king who had put the booklet in his hand on the table.

Then, he got up directly and left the imperial study room.

~~

When Yu Wenlan arrived at Ganlu Hall, she saw Yan Shu holding the letter and looking at it with gusto.

She looked at it so earnestly that she didn't even notice that he stepped into the palace, and it was only when Liandong reminded her that she saw him, then she put down the letter in her hand, stood up and saluted him, "My concubine sees Your Majesty."

Yu Wenlan hummed, "Didn't you go to the Queen Mother today?"

Yan Shu said, "Today the Empress Dowager did not summon any concubines."

Yu Wenlan hummed, then glanced at the letterhead she put on the table, and asked pretending not to care, "Is there any interesting content in these letters today?"

But she said, "It's nothing special, most of them are just boasting that the words of the ministers and concubines are good-looking."

Tsk tsk in my heart, [It's over, my writing is probably too good, there are actually more people confessing their love this time than last time! Tsk tsk, why didn't I find out that there are so many broken sleeves in the capital? I don't know what they look like, is it attacking or receiving? 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Sure enough there is again!

And she is still curious?

No, I will explain to Zou Mozhong when I go back later, and don't let the bookstore accept these letters in the future!

Just thinking about it, she saw her asking, "Why is Your Majesty here now? Is the Imperial Study not busy today?"

Yu Wenlan snorted, "It's true that I'm not busy, so I went out for a walk."

But while she was talking, she picked up another letter and read it.

Yu Wenlan's heart itch.

Intentionally craned his neck to watch together, but worried about being laughed at by her, so he had no choice but to hold back and only pricked up his ears to listen to her inner voice.

I didn't know that I was listening, but I heard a sentence.

Um?

Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows, before she could ask, she looked at him in surprise, and said, "Your Majesty, someone broke the news about Ge Yuanhua, a famous scholar in Luzhou."

Yu Wenlan didn't quite understand, "What does this mean?"

Yan Shu quickly reorganized her words and said, "That is, someone told my concubine a secret about Ge Yuanhua, a famous scholar in Luzhou."

Yu Wenlan understood now, and couldn't help asking, "He Mixin?"

—Speaking of which, this Ge Mingshi was recommended by many ministers in the court as a suitable candidate to be the dean of Songhe Academy.

Unexpectedly, Yan Shu said, "It is said that he once took a fancy to a student's wife, so he threatened and lured her to sell her to him as a concubine."

Yu Wenlan, "???"
