MTL - Ci Jinzhi-Chapter 201 find fault
"Miss Kou?" Seeing that Xin You was silent, the palace attendant urged her.
Xin You settled down and said apologetically, "The last time I saw Mr. Songling, Mr. Songling said that he was leaving Beijing."
The attendants of the palace heard that Mr. Song Ling was not in the capital, and looked at Xin You with scrutiny in his eyes: "The words written by Mr. Song Ling are sought after by thousands of people, with both fame and fortune, why did you leave the capital?"
Xin You's tone was light: "I don't know about that. Our bookstore has a cooperative relationship with Mr. Songling, and we will not interfere with Mr. Songling's personal affairs."
The attendants of the palace had no choice but to go back and report so.
Not seeing Mr. Song Ling, King Qing's mood suddenly changed a lot.
A little Mr. Xiaoxiaoshu still can't meet, why do all kinds of things go wrong when he gets in touch with Miss Kou?
King Qing suppressed his irritability for the time being, and rushed between the banquets for the next few days, and finally went to Qingsong Bookstore after being busy.
At this time, Qingsong Bookstore had just opened, Liu Zhou and Shitou were arranging the bookshelves, and shopkeeper Hu was sitting leisurely looking through the books, and jumped up when he saw King Qing coming in.
"Xiaomin—"
King Qing waved his hand to stop shopkeeper Hu from saluting: "Is Miss Kou there?"
He was wearing an indistinct brocade robe today, with a casual look.
Shopkeeper Hu didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly sent Shitou to invite Xin You to come.
"The daughter of the people has met His Highness Prince Qing."
At this time, there were no guests coming to the door. King Qing took a look at the book hall full of books, and asked: "Miss Kou, can you take Xiao Wang to the printing shop?"
"There are so many people in the book printing shop. If His Royal Highness Qing is shocked, the daughters of the people will die."
King Qing's face turned cold: "Xiao Wang is not a piece of paper. It's fine to go to the disaster area in Dingbei. How about going to a book printing house?"
Xin You's eyebrows moved slightly.
It's okay to take King Qing to see the book printing house. She declined just now, which was also a temptation.
King Qing really did not come well.
"His Royal Highness King Qing, come here with the girls." Xin You bowed and led the way.
King Qing followed with two guards.
The book printing workshop of Qingsong Publishing Co., Ltd. is much bigger than King Qing thought, and there are many people working even in the early morning.
These craftsmen greeted Xinyou one after another, and looked at King Qing curiously.
King Qing frowned.
He came here because of Mr. Song Ling, and he was not really interested in printing books.
Walking around, King Qing stopped: "A few days ago, Xiao Wang wanted to see Mr. Songling, but it was a pity. I came here today to ask Miss Kou, where Mr. Songling went and when will he return to Beijing."
"Minnv don't know..." Xin You still said the same thing.
King Qing sneered: "Miss Kou is a three-year-old child, can I be my king?"
Xin You looked puzzled.
King Qing pointed out: "The prosperity of your bookstore is due to the books written by Mr. Pine Ling. Then there are still ten and eight volumes of "Journey to the West". Can you easily let Mr. Ling go?"
Faced with King Qing's questioning, Xin You was very calm: "Mr. Songling's new book is indeed indispensable in the small shop. Fortunately, Mr. Songling was considerate and gave all the follow-up manuscripts of "Journey to the West" to Minnv before leaving."
King Qing was stunned for a moment: "You mean, the entire manuscript of Journey to the West?"
"Yes, there are eight more volumes to follow. The store plans to release a volume every one or two months, so you don't have to worry about new books within two years."
King Qing took a deep look at Xin You, and chuckled lightly: "After reading the second volume of "Journey to the West", Xiao Wang really wants to know what happened next. I wonder if I can borrow the manuscript to read?"
Borrow manuscripts?
Facing King Qing's unpredictable eyes, Xin You smiled quickly: "It's the honor of Xiaodian that "Journey to the West" was liked by His Royal Highness King Qing. Xiaolian—"
"The servant girl is here."
"Go to my study and get the manuscript of Journey to the West."
Xiao Lian hesitated for a while, bowed her head and said, "Yes."
King Qing watched the maid named Xiaolian walk away quickly, his eyes darkened.
How important this manuscript is to a bookstore if it has not been sold, he made this request and was already prepared to be rejected.
If you are rejected, you can make use of the problem.
Ms. Ke Kou agreed without hesitation, which made him unable to attack.
Thinking about the same when he came to Qingsong Bookstore for the first time, King Qing took a deep look at Xin You.
This girl is really flexible, sleek and shrewd, she doesn't look like a teenage girl at all.
"Girl, the manuscript is here." Not long after, Xiao Lian returned with a box in her hands.
Xin You took it over: "His Royal Highness, this is the manuscript of Journey to the West."
A guard stepped forward to take the box, opened it directly, and saw a pile of manuscripts stacked inside. Another guard picked up the manuscript one by one to check it before presenting it to King Qing.
Xin You watched calmly, and once again reminded herself not to be impatient with King Shangqing.
This King Qing seems to be easygoing, but in fact he cherishes his life very much.
King Qing didn't answer, he scanned the manuscript with his eyes, and smiled: "Mr. Songling's handwriting is good, and he must be a romantic and free-spirited character. It's a pity that we didn't have the chance to meet him."
Xin You smiled: "Mr. Songling said he would come back, and His Highness King Qing will definitely see you."
"I'm bothering Miss Kou today." Unable to find fault, King Qing was too lazy to stay any longer, and left with the manuscript Shi Shiran.
When the chariots and horses of King Qing and his party were completely gone, Xiao Lian was very worried: "Girl, what if those manuscripts fall into the hands of King Qing, what if they leak out?"
Let other bookstores get it, but make a wedding dress for others, and Qingsong Bookstore will suffer heavy losses.
Xin You stared down at the ground.
From the gaps in the blue bricks, grass emerged, tender and slender, the color of early spring.
"If you really want to reveal it, just reveal it, it doesn't matter."
Xiao Lian was very unwilling: "But—"
"We are not short of money, so there is no need to offend the prince." After Xin You finished speaking, she turned and walked inward.
Xiaolian bit her lip and followed silently.
Miss is right, but thinking of the hard work of writing books at the desk and the trouble of running the bookstore, I am really unconvinced.
Dignified prince, why are you like this!
Xin You went into the study when she returned to the east courtyard, and came out after a long time.
King Qing read the manuscript after returning home, and was addicted to it.
He doesn't like Miss Kou, but "Journey to the West" is really good.
King Qing stayed up for two nights and finally finished watching it.
"Cousin, what's wrong with you?" Dai Ze who came to play with King Qing asked in shock.
"I—" King Qing paused, looked at his curious cousin, and had an idea.
If the unpublished manuscript of "Journey to the West" is released, it will be a devastating blow to Qingsong Bookstore, and it will also reveal the bad breath he made at his aunt's birthday banquet.
However, if the manuscript is leaked from Prince Qing's Mansion, it will be bad if it is brought up in the future. But Daize is different, his cousin is lawless, and it is not unusual for him to do anything.
Dai Ze knew that he had the manuscript of "Journey to the West" and would definitely ask for it, but this kid couldn't keep it a secret, so it was only natural for him to spread it after he left.
King Qing yawned, looking troubled: "I watched Journey to the West."
"A copy of "Journey to the West" is not enough, and the pages are not many."
Wang Qing glanced at Dai Ze: "One book is not many, what if ten books?"
