Fortunate Young Gentleman

"The Romance of the West Chamber" was classified as a banned book when there were only a few volumes left. The inventories of major bookstores were plundered by the imperial court, and no further printing or sale was allowed.

This is a great torture for people who like "The West Wing". It is suddenly banned at the most critical moment of the plot and is about to end. This may mean that the book "The West Wing" will become their lifelong favorite. Pity.

Tang Ning was also quite sorry. After all, these two books were banned, so he couldn't count the banknotes every two days.

But it was only a little regretful. After all, there were only three volumes of "The West Wing" left, and all the money he should have earned was earned. At least he already had the money to buy a house.

As for the majority of readers in the capital, I can only say sorry to them. If you want to blame it, blame it on the pedantic court and this troubled world.

"How come these two books were sealed immediately? What did the court think?" Xiao Jue seemed dissatisfied with the court's actions, with a look of regret on his face.

Tangning looked up at him and asked, "Do you also watch "The Peony Pavilion" and "The Romance of the West Chamber"?"

"Look..." Xiao Jue nodded and said, "These two books are well written, but there are some flaws."

Nothing in the world is truly perfect. Looking at it from different angles, "The West Chamber" and "Peony" must have flaws, but Tang Ning doesn't believe that such flaws are caused by Xiao Jue, who only knows how to watch "XX Thirty-Six Styles" and People in "XX Forty-Eight Moves" can see it.

He looked at Xiao Jue and asked, "What's the flaw?"

Xiao Jue shook his head and said: "Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying slept in the room all night. Liu Mengmei and Du Liniang had a private meeting. They just spent the night peacefully and slept in each other's arms... This is too far away from reality. In my opinion, Look, this Li Qing is probably the same as you and has never experienced those things."

What does it mean to spend a peaceful night without experiencing those things? What's wrong with sleeping in each other's arms? Just forget about having dirty thoughts and full of pornographic thoughts, thinking that everyone is the same as him?

What does it mean to be separated from reality? You have to do that kind of thing while lying on the same bed?

In reality, there are still people who are still virgins after more than half a year of marriage.

"The Romance of the West Chamber" and "The Peony Pavilion" are masterpieces, and the two authors are both great writers. Naturally, they would not make such low-level mistakes that are divorced from reality. Just in order not to teach children bad things, Tang Ning modified some of the passages in them that were not suitable for children. .

He told Fairy Tang about a scholar stealing a young lady and a young lady stealing a scholar, and described the details in detail - he was not as clueless as Xiao Jue.

"After today, I can't come out." Xiao Jue sighed and said, "There are only a few days left for the provincial exam. I have to show off to my father at home, otherwise he will have to nag me again. If the last three chapters of The West Chamber The roll is out, remember to leave a copy for me.”

After Xiao Jue left, for about half an hour, Tang Ning practiced kung fu in the yard for a while. Qing'er brought a figure in, blinked and said, "Uncle, there is a girl looking for you."

Tang Ning had not seen Li Tianlan for some time. When he moved from Hongxiu Pavilion, he specifically told Shopkeeper Peng that if Miss Li went to Hongxiu Pavilion, he would tell her that he had moved to Ping'an County Government.

Thinking about it, this must be her first time going to Red Sleeve Pavilion in these days.

Tangning walked into the room, poured a cup of tea, and asked, "Why, are you very busy these days?"

"I'm a little busy." Li Tianlan nodded.

Tangning was a little confused and asked, "What are you talking about with the court? It's been so long and there's still no result?"

Li Tianlan picked up the teacup, moistened his lips, and said, "We want to form an alliance with Chen State to jointly resist the enemies in the north."

The imperial examination requires policy theory, and the international situation is also a very important test point, so Tang Ning is also very clear about Chen Guo's international relations.

Chen State is now in a relatively stable period, and its relations with neighboring countries are relatively stable, but the north is an exception.

On the northern prairie, a certain nomadic ethnic group has continued to invade over the years, putting great pressure on the northern border of Chen State.

But the one under greater pressure is the Chu State. The Chu State is located in the north, and its larger territory borders the grassland. The Sushen people on the grassland are brave and good at fighting. The Sushen people who like to loot are only a headache for the Chen State, but they are a serious concern for the Chu State.

The Chu State's envoy came to Chen State this time not only to pay tribute, but also with the mission of forming an alliance with Chen State to jointly resist the Sushen people.

But obviously, for Chen Guo, forming an alliance is not the best choice.

The grassland is a serious problem for the Chu State, but it does not belong to the Chen State. They can only harass the north of the Chen State, and the horseshoes cannot run farther. If troops are sent to sweep the grassland, the Chu State will benefit the most. Without the threat on the grassland, The national power of the Chu State will surely grow stronger and stronger. The Chu State is not like the grassland. It is actually bordering the Chen State. Eliminating the threat of the Sushen people and waiting for the Chu State to become powerful is not what the Chen State courtiers and kings want to see. of.

This kind of thing was not something Tang Ning could worry about or interfere with.

Li Tianlan glanced at his desk and changed the subject: "You also read "The West Chamber"?"

Tangning nodded and asked, "Are you watching too?"

Li Tianlan felt a little regretful and said, "I just read the latest volume yesterday. It's a pity that the book is banned and I can't see the ending."

Tangning opened the drawer and handed her the last three volumes.

Li Tianlan turned over the pages and looked at Tang Ning with a look of surprise on his face.

Tang Ning explained: "I am very familiar with the shopkeeper of Songzhuzhai. Before this book was banned, I had already obtained the original manuscript."

Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "It is said that the original manuscript of Songzhuzhai has been destroyed by the government."

Tangning thought for a while and said, "Then you have to cherish it. Maybe this is the only manuscript left in the world."

Li Tianlan looked at him with obvious disbelief on his face.

Tangning had a look of helplessness on her face and said, "Okay, we are all friends, so I won't hide it from you. I admit that--I actually know Li Qing."

…

Capital, a certain bookstore.

A customer walked in from outside, walked up to the waiter, and asked in a low voice: "Do you have "The Romance of the West Chamber" here?"

"No, no, this is a banned book. How can a serious bookstore like ours sell it!" The clerk waved his hands repeatedly. "The Romance of the West Chamber" had just been banned. Who would dare to commit a crime?

"It's just because it's a banned book, that's why I want to read it..." The man felt a little regretful, turned and walked towards the door, murmuring: "What the hell is this "The Romance of the West Chamber"? Why is everyone talking about it? Why did the court Will ban it..."

The guy stood back to his original position, feeling a little depressed.

Since "The Romance of the West Chamber" was listed as a banned book by the imperial court, more customers came to the bookstore to inquire about it. It seems that the more banned it is, the more interested they are in this book...

In the palace, Emperor Chen finished reviewing the memorial and when he came to a certain palace, he heard laughter coming from a distance.

He walked into the palace and asked: "What is so happy about?"

"I have met your Majesty!"

"Anyang has met His Majesty..."

Several people in the palace stood up one after another. Emperor Chen's eyes swept over the concubines, and finally stopped on a woman in front of him, and asked: "Anyang is here, I said who has such great ability, only you can tease her." They are so happy.”

He walked into the hall, waved his hand and said, "I'm here to have a cup of tea and take a rest. You can continue talking and don't worry about me."

However, the concubines did not play around as much as before and sat there quietly.

Concubine Shu came over and said, "Your Majesty, I will give you a shoulder rub."

"Thank you for your concubine." Emperor Chen nodded and asked, "What were you talking about just now? Are you so happy?"

Concubine Shu smiled and said, "Anyang brought a book to the palace a few days ago. The concubines thought it was good and are planning to ask her to bring a few more volumes with her the next time she comes to the palace."

Emperor Chen waved his hand and said: "There is no need to trouble Anyang for such a trivial matter. Just tell me which book it is, and I will have someone bring it in for you from outside the palace in a moment."

Concubine Shu smiled slightly and said: "This book is called "The Romance of the West Chamber", and it will end with the last few volumes left..."

Half an hour later, Chen Huang walked out of the palace and returned to the study. He looked back at Ling Yun and said, "I have something I want to leave to you."

Ling Yun bowed and cupped his hands: "Please give me your Majesty's instructions."

"It's just a small matter, don't be so nervous." Emperor Chen waved his hand and said, "You ask someone to go out of the palace to bring a few books, which seems to be called "The Romance of the West Chamber". After you bring them back, send them to Concubine Shu."

Ling Yun was stunned and murmured: "The Romance of the West Chamber"..."

Emperor Chen saw his expression was different and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ling Yun raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, the book "The Romance of the West Chamber" has been classified as a banned book. All books have been destroyed and are no longer available on the market..."

"Banned?" Chen Huang looked at him in surprise and asked, "Who banned it?" [This chapter is first published. like. have. Voice. Novel Network, please remember the URL]
