East Palace.

Backyard gazebo.

"What a wonderful article!"

After a long time, Zhu Biao finally finished reading the Hanlin Daily in his hand. When he closed the book, he couldn't help but admire it loudly and showed excitement on his face.

After hearing Zhu Biao's words, Zhu Tong, who was originally worried, was stunned for a moment, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Shanchang on the side couldn't help but show a trace of doubt after hearing the prince's praise. He looked at the Hanlin Daily in the prince's hand with curiosity in his eyes.

He could not imagine what kind of article could make the prince so excited.

"Your Highness, can you allow me to take a look?"

Li Shanchang hesitated, pointed at the Hanlin Daily in Zhu Biao's hand, and asked slowly.

Zhu Biao came to his senses and handed the Hanlin Daily to Li Shanchang.

After Li Shanchang took it, he threw all the chess pieces in his other hand on the chessboard. He held the daily newspaper in both hands and started reading. In an instant, he was immersed in it.

Zhu Biao let out a long breath and turned to look at Zhu Tong, who was a little confused.

"Are you worried about Hu Fei's safety?"

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Tong and asked with a smile.

"Reporting to Your Highness, it is indeed true. Although Mr. Hu has always been known as the number one dude in the capital, and his reputation is not good, I think he is indeed a man of considerable literary talent. As your Majesty said, Mr. Hu will definitely be able to become a great figure in the literary world of our Ming Dynasty in the future.

hope."

"So Wei Chen is worried that some of the remarks he mentioned in the script may be criticized. If they reach His Majesty's ears, I'm afraid..."

Zhu Tong said with a solemn expression. When he reached the last sentence, he did not dare to continue.

Ever since they met at the Wenxian Hall Poetry and Calligraphy Conference last time, Zhu Tong was deeply impressed by Hu Fei and even admired him, and did not want to see Hu Fei suffer because of it.

What's more, he knew that the prince intended to regard Hu Fei as a talented person to assist him in the future, so he didn't want the prince to lose a strong arm.

The prince naturally understood this feeling.

"Don't worry, Zhu Qing, Hu Fei will be fine."

Zhu Biao smiled and said.

"Really?"

Zhu Tong asked happily after hearing this, his face finally looked better.

"real."

"This man has always regarded himself as the number one dude in the capital. His behavior is naturally free and unrestrained, and he ignores the rules. Therefore, it is not surprising that he wrote the things that are against common etiquette in the article, and it will not cause additional trouble.

Because he is such a person, have you ever seen him obey the rules?"

"Coupled with what he said in the article about the prosperous imperial examination system and the emphasis on loving the people, these are the issues that our Ming Dynasty needs to face up to now and is working hard to change. Not only does it win the heart of this palace, but it must also be deeply in line with the heart of the father.

.”

"So I say, not only will nothing happen to Hu Fei, but my father will even look at him with admiration."

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Tong and explained with a smile.

"Since His Highness said this, I feel relieved. Thank you for your advice."

After Zhu Tong heard this, he finally felt relieved, bowed his hands and said respectfully.

"A wonderful article! This Liaozhai is indeed a wonderful article!"

"It's just a few hundred words, but the veteran is completely immersed in it and can't extricate himself. It's like every word and every sentence has a magical power that makes people want to stop!"

At this time, Li Shanchang also finished reading the Liaozhai attached to the end of the newspaper and couldn't help but sigh.

"Does the Korean father think so too?"

Zhu Biao looked at Li Shanchang and asked with a smile.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined that there are such wonderful articles in the world!"

"This is really all written by that boy Hu Fei?!"

Li Shanchang sighed and turned to look at Zhu Tong and asked seriously.

"Mr. Hui Han, that's true. If it weren't for him, who could have written such a fantastic and unconstrained piece of writing?"

Zhu Tong cupped his hands and said seriously.

"It seems that I underestimated him before. I didn't expect that this guy has accumulated so much experience that he has made such a big fuss one after another recently."

"It's just that the last sentence about wanting to know what happened and waiting for the serialization makes me feel uncomfortable."

Li Shanchang said with a wry smile.

"Hui Han Gong, this sentence is intended to tell people who like this storybook to order the Hanlin Daily. There is only one copy of this newspaper a day, and a new one is published every day. This should be the meaning of the word serial."

Zhu Tong explained with a smile.

"Not bad, not bad. I will order someone to order it when I get back! Order it within a few days!"

Li Shanchang nodded and said loudly.

"Count me in."

Zhu Biao smiled and agreed.

"Hahaha..."

After listening to Zhu Biao's words, Li Shanchang couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing.

"After all, this Hu Fei is somewhat close to the Korean father, right?"

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said.

"Yes, but this guy has always been naughty. I have never given him a good look. I have only met him a few times. I think he is already a stranger to me. Maybe I don't remember this friendship."

Li Shanchang waved his hand and said with a wry smile.

"His rise may not only be beyond the expectations of Mr. South Korea, but also probably not expected by many people."

"It seems that this child is indeed a genius. It's time to find a way to lead him to the right path."

Zhu Biao said with some emotion.

"Oh? Your Highness is finally planning to take action? How do you plan to arrange for him?"

Li Shan raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

"I haven't decided yet, so I won't mention it for now."

Zhu Biao waved his hand and refused to answer, with a meaningful smile on his lips.

Li Shanchang smiled and did not ask any further questions.

...

The next day.

Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

"Pang Yuhai, during the morning court just now, I heard the ministers talking about "Liao Zhai" and "wonderful literature in the world". Do you know this?"

After leaving the morning court, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly walked into the hall and asked with a frown.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it seems to be related to Hanlin Daily."

Pang Yuhai hesitated for a moment and answered slowly.

"Did Hu Fei do it again? What on earth is it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Pang Yuhai and asked.

"The old slave vaguely heard Mr. Han mention it. He seemed to say that in addition to some anecdotes inside and outside the capital, at the end of the Hanlin Daily, there was a short story called Liaozhai, which told a fairy tale."

"The Korean prince seems to be very obsessed with this article. He praises it to everyone he meets, saying that he can't stop. He ordered people to order Hanlin Daily for half a year in advance just to read this article."

Pang Yuhai recalled what he overheard at that time about South Korean Gong Li Shanchang, and then spoke about it.

"Is this article really so magical?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked curiously.

"I don't know, but judging from the excitement among the civil and military officials discussing it in private, it seems that they have all read this article."

Pang Yuhai replied slowly.

"Then you go and buy me a copy right now. I want to see what kind of article it is that can make a Korean prince praise it so much."

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, it is said that Hanlin Daily needs to be ordered in advance every day. If you buy it at this time, I am afraid it has been sold out."

Pang Yuhai said with a bitter face and some embarrassment.
