C105 The Value of the Book



C105 The Value of the Book

Others may not understand.    

    

But the beauty understood.    

    

She was stunned for a moment, then for some reason, tears began to flow down her face.    

    

Xiao Yun panicked when she cried.    

    

He hurriedly asked, "What happened? Feeling wronged? Who bullied you? "    

    

He even went further and stared at the palace maid who was walking over quickly. The palace maid hurriedly shook her head, indicating that this had nothing to do with her!    

    

The entire court did not know what Xiao Yun did, but she knew!    

    

This was a ruthless person who could cut off the head of a thief in the rebel army!    

    

Shangguan Qing'er and the others also rushed over. They had heard their conversation earlier, but they did not think about it. They only felt that they were a little strange.    

    

Perhaps they had built up a friendship through mutual hardship.    

    

Only Miss Wu frowned, her gaze moving back and forth between Xiao Yun and the beauty.    

    

Then, she lowered her head to look at her slightly shrivelled figure, and a trace of worry appeared between her brows.    

    

Shangguan Qing'er walked forward and told Xiao Yun everything that happened in the Imperial Court.    

    

Xiao Yun was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "I understand."    

    

A few women surrounded him and kept asking questions. They could not guess what happened after Xiao Yun left, nor could they understand.    

    

When he left, he said he wanted to do something big.    

    

After that, the rebellion was quickly quelled.    

    

Anyone would think that Xiao Yun was also involved in the matter of pacifying the rebellion.    

    

Although it was obvious that it was unbelievable, everyone felt that it must have something to do with him!    

    

After chatting for a while, nothing came out of Xiao Yun's mouth.    

    

Then, the palace maid reminded the girls that it was time to leave.    

    

They were all unwilling!    

    

That's right.    

    

Where is this?    

    

It's the Imperial Palace!    

    

Although it wasn't a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, he still felt that it wasn't that reliable.    

    

What the Imperial Palace lacked the most was men, and what they lacked the least was women.    

    

As for Xiao Yun, this man with another surname, if he lived here, he might one day suddenly become the son-in-law of the Prince Consort. At that time, wouldn't he be cheated?    

    

Thus, they simply refused to leave one by one, causing the palace maids to feel extremely awkward. They did not know what to do and kept looking at Xiao Yun for help.    

    

Xiao Yun only spread his hands, expressing his helplessness.    

    

In the end, a few more people came from the direction of the palace before taking these few people and women away.    

    

Of course, Shangguan Qing'er stayed behind as if it was a matter of course.    

    

"Young Master, why do they have to leave this place? Even their family members came to pick them up. It was really strange."    

    

Regarding this, she expressed her curiosity.    

    

Xiao Yun rolled his eyes, feeling a bit speechless. He said, "This is the Imperial Palace, if a group of young women stay overnight in the Imperial Palace... If it was the Empress and concubines who personally stay behind, it would be fine, but they are not... Once they spend the night, they can only become His Majesty's concubines. This is the rule."    

    

"Why is there such a rule? I've never heard of it before."    

    

"It's not the rule on the surface. Of course, His Majesty will not do anything. However, the world is full of people talking about it. Why would he give these girls a chance to defend themselves? At that time, in order to protect their reputation, His Majesty will have to stay."    

    

Shangguan Qing'er blinked and said, "Become His Majesty's concubine... En, this seems to be good for them too. If they can become the Empress... Then their family will become relatives of the Emperor, isn't that a good thing? "    

    

"A good thing?"    

    

Xiao Yun laughed and said, "Who dares to be too close to His Majesty in these few families? You silly girl."    

    

Those with great power and authority had to stay as close as possible to His Majesty and maintain a safe distance from him. Not only were they safe, but they also could not let others find their weaknesses.    

    

Shangguan Qing'er, on the other hand, did not have much problem staying here. After all, she was Xiao Yun's maid.    

    

"This palace is so big!"    

    

Shangguan Qing'er said with some excitement.    

    

"What's the use of being too big? It's easy to get wind. If you live in such a big bedroom all year round and there is nothing to block the wind around, I'm afraid people will get sick easily."    

    

"Ah? Isn't it better the bigger the better? "    

    

"Of course. A big bedroom is just a imagination of the poor to the rich. In fact, even a very big house can only sleep in a small room."    

    

"So that's how it is."    

    

Shangguan Qing'er looked around and then smiled bitterly. "But there is not even a place to sleep here. How did young master spend the night?"    

    

Actually, she was a little worried when she asked this.    

    

She was afraid that Xiao Yun would sleep in another palace at night, or on a woman's bed.    

    

Xiao Yun smiled and did not answer that question. He immediately went to the table and took off the books. Then, bit by bit, he built a small house on the ground with books and a few simple pieces of furniture!    

    

It was like a tent, and one could go to sleep after entering it.    

    

Shangguan Qing'er opened her mouth wide and looked at it blankly.    

    

After Xiao Yun finished, he turned around and smiled. "How is it? I am very talented, right?"    

    

He wanted to take credit for it.    

    

However, Shangguan Qing'er's face was ashen. Then, she said with a trembling voice," Previously... before this, you slept like this? "    

    

"Yes, what happened?"    

    

"Oh my God!"    

    

"What's wrong with you? Although my idea is indeed quite genius, you don't need to exaggerate so much, right? It makes me feel a little embarrassed. "    

    

Shangguan Qing'er said with a sullen face," Young Master, quickly tear it down! If people see you actually use these precious books to build a house to sleep, I'm afraid that all the scholars in the world will point at your nose and scold you to death with one mouthful of saliva!"    

    

"Ah? It can't be."    

    

"Why not?"    

    

Shangguan Qing'er rushed over, picked up a book and said, "This paper, this seal, and the words. One look and you can tell that it is the most precious thing. It was also copied by calligraphy masters one stroke at a time. Perhaps these are all lone copies. If they are destroyed, they will be gone forever! "    

    

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment before he suddenly woke up.    

    

His values in his previous life were still too high, and he had accidentally forgotten this point.    

    

Sure enough, Shangguan Qing'er continued, "Young Master, if others find out about your actions, I'm afraid they will remember it in the history books. Not only will people scold you now, but there will also be people who will scold you in the next hundred or thousand years! That year, when Scholar Han Ji was traveling, he encountered a flood and was washed away by the flood in order to protect the books he had on him. He lost his life. In another country. But his actions were praised for hundreds of years. The few books he left behind in the past were also kept by the royal family... Uh, it can't be that these books already exist, right?!"    

    

Shangguan Qing'er trembles before saying," Even this servant, a martial artist who has not read many books, knows the importance of the books, Young Master... Young Master, how can you be so mischievous? "    

    

Xiao Yun was also shocked in his heart.    

    

The fiercer that Han Ji scholar was praised, the more he would be scolded.    

    

He had simply become a negative example.    

    

Furthermore, during these few days of sleep, he had really broken two books. It was just that he did not mind and casually threw them aside. Thinking back now, he might have made a mistake that was a waste of heaven's gifts!    

    

In this world, there was no such convenient paper. Good paper needed to be boiled with silk velvet. After 37 procedures, it could only be made after three months. One inch old and one inch silver! It was extremely expensive.    

    

And to leave words on this kind of paper, firstly, the quality of the words had to be high. Secondly, the person who wrote it was also extremely important.    

    

They were all personally written. Each word was written on the book. There were no wrong words, nor could there be any editing. There were hundreds of thousands of words in the entire book, and there could not be a single mistake... The difficulty could be imagined.    

    

Thus, the number of books was the limit, and the number of books was the limit.    

    

Thus, the books were expensive to the extreme!    

    

Xiao Yun finally understood why the eunuchs and palace maids were so respectful towards him, but after seeing the book house that he had created, there was a sense of alienation in their eyes.    

    

So it was because he did not like his actions and was too embarrassed to say it!    

    

At the same time, he also understood why His Majesty would keep him in the palace. This was clearly something that did not conform to the rules. He originally thought that it was to lock him up and temper his character.    

    

Only now did he understand that things were not that simple. His Majesty still wanted him to read more books here. This could be considered a great benefit to him!
