132 Every family lights up the night battle... "The Story of the Stone"!(1/2)
Chu Tianxiu, Li Yu, Di'er, and Zuer were sitting in a luxurious carriage and saw many scholars, daughters, Confucian scholars and servants from various prefectures buying "The Story of Stone" from afar.
He couldn't help but feel relish and felt relieved.
This is not just a matter of selling how much silver to sell. The first batch of two thousand volumes is only 4,000 taels of silver.
But this is a huge influence!
After this book "The Story of Stone" became a sensation, it continued to spread to all parts of Da Chu. It didn't take long for everyone in Da Chu to know it.
Scholars will rush to read "The Story of the Stone".
The status of Xiaohunhou and the new generation of literary masters of the Great Chu Dynasty will be established from this.
The current respected literary masters of the Great Chu Dynasty were almost all high-ranking officials such as the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers, or famous scholars in the opposition.
Two slaps were counted, and no more than ten people were allowed.
All of them are old white beards, and no young man.
The status of a master of literature is extremely high, and a sentence that can be said to hundreds or thousands of people is even more effective. All scholars are fanatical and regarded it as a famous saying.
The greatest privilege of the master of literature is that he has the right to evaluate others from then on.
But others dare not, and are not qualified to evaluate the master casually.
This is not the first young poetic master of Xie Lingyun in Jinling. He can be compared with his peers. In front of the master, he can only be honest and obedient and ask for advice.
He, Xiaohuhou, will become the youngest literary master in Da Chu. He is qualified to evaluate others, but others are not qualified to evaluate him.
Li Yu rolled his eyes beautifully and said quietly: "Husband, we have sold so many books now, so we can read them!"
After writing this manuscript, Chu Tianxiu hid it.
Even she, Di'er and Zuer didn't see it.
"that is!"
"My son-in-law keeps it so confidential that we don't even let us see it!"
Di'er and Zuer were also very angry.
Chu Tianxiu smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back to watch "The Story of the Stone" tonight and watch it all night!"
...
The sales of Danyang Bookstore are very popular.
"The Story of Stone" was sold for the first time, and a total of 1,000 volumes were snatched away by scholars and Confucian scholars in just one hour.
The servants and maids who had not bought it were anxiously surrounded outside the bookstore and refused to leave. They were ordered by the head and wife to buy "The Story of the Stone".
The bookkeeper had no choice but to ask Xiao Hunhou to take out the goods that he had originally planned to sell tomorrow in advance. He even sent someone to notify the printing factory to print Dream of the Red Chamber as soon as possible.
From morning to evening, two thousand copies of "The Story of the Stone" were sold out.
...
This night.
In the rich families in Jinling City, deep in the house, the lights are like the stars in the sky, endlessly resting.
Thousands of infatuated men and women, daughters, romantic scholars, and Confucian scholars, are fighting at night.
Let’s talk about tomorrow, let’s watch “The Story of the Stone” tonight
Pingwang Mansion.
Yu Garden, fragrant boudoir.
Li Yu, Zuer and Di Er, the three of them gathered together, read a book called "The Story of the Stone" with relish, and whispered.
As we talked about the plot, we smiled and cursed a few times from time to time, we were naturally saying that so many son-in-law made Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai and others write so vividly.
Chu Tianxiu was kicked out of the boudoir and wanted to cry without tears. She had insomnia in the study.
He counted the chicks alone, so boring.
A mistake!
Tonight, I will harm Jinling City.
But who will harm me?!
...
Pingwang Mansion.
The second wife Xie Liyuan pestered King Ping Li Rong and insisted on watching "The Story of the Stone" with him.
What's the point of watching it alone? She still has to watch it together.
Li Rong took off the Grand Marshal's Armor and said helplessly: "Madam, it's already dark, and I'll go to the morning court tomorrow!"
"Hmph, I heard that Empress Cui sent someone to buy dozens of books in one go, and each of the concubines in the harem gave one. The queen said that the concubines read books when they were idle and had nothing to do. She wanted to take the exam, so don't think about the ones that were there.
Tonight, the Emperor, Empress Cui, and Concubine Yang might also be watching "The Story of the Stone". Maybe tomorrow's morning court will be changed to Wu Dynasty! You went early, and there was no one!"
The second wife said angrily.
All right!
Li Rong had no choice but to cheer up and accompany his second wife to read "The Story of the Stone".
He hadn't read it before. He was a martial artist. His favorite thing was to read military books and war strategies. He was not good at literature, which was "entwined, emotional, and love".
After all, not everyone loves reading this kind of little yellow book.
So although there is a serialization of this book in the "Da Chu Di Daily", he didn't read it carefully.
As he looked, the second wife's face turned red and she exhaled like an orchid.
Li Rong's face changed.
Last time, the second wife fought three times overnight and defeated him. Could it be that this "Stone" was behind the scenes?
It's over, I'll ask for leave tomorrow morning?!
...
Inside Jinling City.
Of course, there is no need to say much about the family.
From the head of the family, the wife, to the disciples, the daughters and granddaughters, each one has a book that is the standard.
This is the trend of the Great Chu!
If you don’t read "The Story of the Stone", what are you discussing with other scholars when you go out? You can’t get into the conversation, and you can’t even get into a circle.
Prime Minister Xie Huyong was alone in the house, holding "The Story of Stone" in one hand, and watching with a smile.
He suddenly remembered something, "My dear concubine! Where did you go? Come and enjoy this "Stone Story" together!"
The concubine hurried into the house, with a grievance on her face and said, "Master, she is a humble person, illiterate and can't understand. Let me read, isn't this bullying me?"
"It's okay, I am the great master of the literature of Great Chu. I will read it to you and explain the wonderful things in it!"
Prime Minister Huyong smiled.
...
In Jinling City, scholars, Confucian scholars and every household is there.
"Good books, good books!"
If there is a couple watching together, it is naturally because the lady is charming and can't help but feel in love.
"It's amazing!"
The husband was panting, "This sentence...and there is another paragraph here... Could Xiaohunhou be the love saint?"
...
certainly.
If you see it alone like Jia Sheng, there is nothing you can do about it.
He was wearing a washed sour white Confucian uniform, sitting at the wooden table, under the dim oil lamp, obsessed with reading until late at night.
Turning his head and looking at the sleeping woman.
Alas ~!
Shaking his head and sighing, continuing to read "The Story of the Stone".
Comparing people with others is so annoying!
I won’t talk about Xiao Hunhou’s extravagant and squandered life.
Even in this book, Jia Baoyu lived so happily.
He studied Confucianism hard for decades, but he was still a poor white-clothed person in Jinling City. When will he succeed?
Forget it, forgot!
