To Hold One’s Joy - Chapter 542
Chapter 542 Fanwai 2 The Dreamer
The world is initially settled, the people live in peace, and the capital becomes more prosperous and lively.
On this day, there was another long queue in front of the gate of Liuchuhuazhai.
Speaking of Liuchuhuazhai, it can be regarded as a century-old shop with a long history.
Liu De Hua Zhai is still so popular until now, that is, after a period of time, it can always release a book with bizarre stories, which attracts countless people to buy it, and some people from other places even entrust their relatives and friends in the capital to buy it.
Of course, such a long queue does not always form every time there is a Newshua book sold, but people have been accustomed to this situation for more than a year.
Liuchu Huazhai came out with a book writer named Dreamer, who was amazingly talented, and the books he wrote made people read it like a fascination, forgetting to sleep and eat.
With a creak in the morning light, the door of the century-old study opened.
People rushed forward excitedly, and the experienced guys shouted: “Line up well, first come, first served!”
The people in front of the line went in first, and soon came out holding a brand new book, and couldn’t wait to open it while walking.
“What story?” asked the person still in line.
The man’s eyes were still fixed on the storybook, and he replied with a bit of flaunting: “It’s the third part of Strange Stories—Resurrection.”
The first story written by the man in the dream is called “Soul Fox”, and the second story is called “Painted Bone”. These two strange stories made this book writer famous and attracted countless people waiting for the first Three parts came out.
When the people in line heard the title of the book, they immediately scratched their heads, eager to see it.
But just at this time, the study clerk shouted: “Mr. Dreamman’s book is sold out, customers who bought other books can come in.”
Hurray Most of the cheerleading team dispersed, and those who didn’t buy the script quickly surrounded those who did.
“Tell me about the main story of “Resurrection”.”
“It’s about a woman who fell into a coma after an accident. After waking up, her temperament changed drastically. In fact, she was resurrected by a ghost with the help of a dead body. Later, she was made a princess because of her meritorious service in saving her…”
“How did an evil ghost become a princess, tell me quickly.”
The man shook his head and said: “This is just a summary of the story. I will tell you the details when I go home and read it carefully.”
Seeing the man walking away triumphantly, a group of people stamped their feet itchingly.
Mr. Dreamer’s “Spirit Fox” and “Painted Bone” are both good-looking. You can’t go wrong with “Resurrection”. It’s a pity that the number of new stories released each time is limited. If you want to see it, you have to wait until next month. .
On the dragon case, a volume of words called “Resurrection” was placed in front of Luo Chen.
Luo Chen has already flipped through it, staring at the title of the book with a sinking face.
My confidant stood aside, not daring to say a word.
Although the new emperor is young, he is intelligent and introverted, quite majestic.
After a long time, Luo Chen said, “Is this a new story written by the man in the dream?”
“yes.”
“How many volumes did Liu De Hua Zhai print in total?”
“Reporting to the emperor, a total of 100 volumes have been printed.” Looking at the look of the new emperor, the servant added, “This is the usual method of Liuchuhuazhai. The number of newly published scripts is controlled, and they will be sold in large quantities in the next month…”
Luo Chen’s complexion was gloomy, and he said lightly: “Go and tell the owner of Liuchuhuazhai that “Resurrection” must not appear on the market again.”
The waiter is.
Luo Chen didn’t move his eyebrows, and his tone became colder: “As for the man in the dream, just break his tendons, I don’t want to see him write new stories again.”
The waiter’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly agreed.
“Let’s do it.”
The servant bowed and retreated, Luo Chen walked to the window, staring at the scenery outside the imperial study in a trance.
In an ordinary house in Dongcheng, a man in a green suit with loose hair was writing a book.
On the desk are piles of manuscripts, exuding a faint fragrance of ink.
There was a knock on the door outside, he put down his pen and rubbed his wrist, showing a smile.
Today is the day when “Resurrection” will be released. It seems that people from Liuchuhuazhai came to send pens and ink money and book the next story.
The appearance of “Soul Fox” and “Painted Bone” is to make “Resurrection” appear in front of the world naturally.
This is not enough.
Although “Resurrection” tells the story of an evil ghost returning from a dead body and becoming a princess, it still can’t make people think of the beautiful eldest princess. It just leaves a vague idea for people who read this story.
What he really wants to show the world is the fourth part of Strange Stories – “Disaster”.
Stories with bizarre colors always spread quickly, and at that time, he would like to see how the royal family blocked the mouth of the world.
So what if the world only treats it as a story, as the protagonist of the story can escape embarrassment?
The knock on the door became more urgent.
The man straightened his clothes and went out.
He couldn’t speak, so he rang the copper bell inside the door.
A voice came from outside the door: “Snowflake.”
After hearing these two words, the man reached out and opened the door.
Flowers bloom in front of the door, but don’t mention anything in front of the bottle.
Liuchuhua is another name for Xuehua. After hearing these two words, he knew that the person who came was from Liuchuhuazhai.
If someone outside said Liuchuhuazhai directly, he would not open the door.
The door opened, and the man’s eyes shrank when he saw the person outside, and he was about to close the door subconsciously.
“Don’t worry.” Shi Yan leaned against the door and said with a smile.
Raised the knife in his hand and dropped it, the cold light flickered, and then he closed the door and left.
The man inside the door clutched his wrist and rolled over in pain, but couldn’t make a sound.
He stared at the closed door, terrified and angry.
That is the man of King Kaiyang!
It turns out that King Kaiyang has been sending people to watch him, and he even knows the secret code that Liuchuhuazhai agreed with him!
His suspicion was not wrong, that **** Luo Sheng was really possessed by a ghost.
Falling to the ground and looking at the cramped sky, Su Yao’s eyes were full of resentment.
In the dream, it was obviously not like this.
He is the most outstanding young man in Jinsha. He is blessed with unique advantages and smooth sailing. He only waits for the title of the gold list to step into his official career, and begins his splendid life from then on.
But at the age of seventeen, a girl Luo came from the capital.
A chance encounter started her entanglement, and then it became so serious that the family had no choice but to agree to the marriage due to the power of Governor Luo.
That was the beginning of his nightmare.
For Miss Luo, she was not satisfied with getting what she wanted. Instead, she soon got tired of the dull and boring life, and she still had no scruples to provoke when she saw handsome men.
Mother reprimanded her angrily, and got a slap in the face.
Mother couldn’t bear the humiliation, swallowed gold and died.
The final outcome was that he strangled her to death while she was asleep, and then committed suicide.
What kind of talent, what kind of bright future, all have nothing to do with him. His short life has become a great tragedy.
But he didn’t expect that when he opened his eyes again, he would still be the seventeen-year-old boy. He heard the younger sister worryingly say to him: “Second brother, you have to be careful. I heard that a cousin girl came to Sheng’s mansion. If you have nothing to do, please come and see me.” Molesting beautiful boys in the street…”
At that moment, he cried.
He didn’t know if it was real or a nightmare, but he knew that Miss Luo who ruined his life had really come.
This time he will not sit still, he will act first.
But he changed the beginning, only to find that Miss Luo is also different from the dream…
Boom boom boom.
The knock on the door sounded again.
Su Yao turned his eyes and stared at the door.
The knocking on the door stopped, and the half-hidden door was pushed open.
The person holding the knife was taken aback when he saw Su Yao’s **** wrist, then walked over to check it, and then left quietly.
“After the dispatched people arrived, they found that Su Yao’s tendon had been severed?” Luo Chen was a little surprised when he heard the report.
“yes.”
Luo Chen thought about it and smiled.
He probably guessed who the one who took the first step was.
He thought he was the only one staring at Su Yao secretly, but he didn’t expect King Kaiyang.
Well, looking at it now, this brother-in-law is still qualified.
“Find me some clothes to go out with. I’m going to see my nephew.”
The servant hurriedly changed into ordinary clothes for Luo Chen, and left the palace in a low-key manner.
In Kaiyang Palace, Luo Sheng and Wei Han are watching Dabai with their several-month-old son.
Dabai’s feathers are a little sparse, but he is still full of energy, pacing slowly and letting people watch.
“Sister, brother-in-law, you have a good time today.” The young man’s clear laughter came.
Luo Sheng saw that it was Luo Chen, and couldn’t help raising his lips: “Why don’t you make a sound when you enter the mansion.”
Luo Chen came over, sat down beside her, and said with a smile, “It’s not like going elsewhere.”
“Aren’t you busy today?”
Luo Chen looked deeply at Luo Sheng, and said, “No matter how busy you are, you have to come and see your nephew.”
Wei Han, who was left out in the cold, silently twitched the corners of his mouth.
The uncle keeps saying that he misses his nephew, but he hasn’t even given his fat son a look.
“Ahem.” Wei Han coughed lightly, finally attracting Luo Chen’s attention.
“Your Majesty, I don’t know what to do with the proposal of Zhao Shangshu and others two days ago?”
Hearing this, Luo Chen immediately frowned: “I think they are too worried. I’m only eighteen years old, so I’m not in a hurry.”
Speaking of this, the young man glanced at Wei Han suspiciously: “Does brother-in-law also want me to get married as soon as possible?”
Wei Han said solemnly: “The male college should be married and the female college should be married. It’s time for the emperor to discuss marriage.”
Luo Chen smiled: “Brother-in-law was already twenty-three years old when he got married.”
Wei Han: “…”
Uncle is mocking him for not being able to marry a wife?
He put his arm around Luo Sheng, smiled and said: “But I have already recognized your sister.”
This time, Luo Chen became angry.
What to show off.
Thinking that he didn’t know, Kaiyang Wang Mingming first decided that it was Xaozi noodles.
He had heard from Hongdou that King Kaiyang ate five bowls of noodles on the way to Beijing. He didn’t eat more because he was full, but because he didn’t have enough money.
Just like this, can he believe that King Kaiyang fell in love with his sister at first sight?
Luo Sheng saw the faint rivalry between the two, so he asked helplessly, “Is my brother staying for dinner?”
Luo Chen straightened his face: “This is natural.”
After all, leaving the palace is not as easy as leaving the palace before, so how can we not stay for dinner.
“Sister, I want to eat spring pancakes, rolled with shredded tripe sauce, shredded ham and chives…”
The neglected little nephew finally burst into tears.
Luo Chen remembered that he was here to see his nephew, and hurriedly took the chubby nephew over to coax him: “Don’t cry, let’s eat spring pancakes with uncle later—”
Before I finished speaking, I felt something was wrong.
The young man raised his wet hands, no longer the calmness of an emperor, only flustered: “Sister, he peed!”
It’s too scary, he doesn’t want to get married early!
Wei Han took his son calmly, and kissed the little guy’s chubby face.
My son is still caring.
See you tomorrow.
