Emperor Yongkang recalled what Mu Yan had just said, that Wu's maiden brother was looking for the whereabouts of the two children, and frowned.
"You just said, two children?"
Mu Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the golden floor tiles, "Yes. The two children of the British AD wife are living outside. At that time, his eldest daughter was more than six years old. For some reason, he ended up living outside with his infant brother.
.The Zhang family also announced that she died young."
Huh? Is there such a thing?
Zhang Fuyuan’s wife and two children are actually living outside the country?
Emperor Yongkang opened his mouth so much that he forgot to close it. Is Zhang Fu such a blind person?
Ah haha, this is so interesting.
He wished he could summon Zhang Fu now and tell him the news, just to see his jaw hit the floor tiles in shock.
Hahaha, so interesting.
"This matter must be kept secret, but be sure not to let the British public know about it. I just want to see when he discovers this matter. Hahahaha..."
Mu Yan's eyes flashed as he listened to Emperor Yongkang laughing heartily. Why didn't he realize that His Majesty was so evil?
But your Majesty is right, he will not take the initiative to tell the British Duke. The British Duke is blind and blind, and he also wants to see the way his jaw hits the ground after hearing the news.
After Mu Yan retired, Emperor Yongkang sat alone on the dragon throne and laughed several times.
After laughing, he called his servants and asked the palace bookstore to print five thousand copies of Huo Nian's book. Some of them were sold in bookstores in the city, and some were prepared to be distributed to the children and grandchildren of similar ages in the families of the ministers.
Let you see, a boy in the market walked thousands of miles at a young age without fear of difficulties and hardships, and wrote such a wonderful travel diary. And the children and grandchildren of your family occupy great resources, food and drink.
With a salary from the imperial court, he has no worries about food and clothing, but he can only enjoy flowers and theater at home, and fight cocks and crickets!
Look, people not only remember the contents of Queen Renxiao’s book of persuading people to do good, but they can also use it flexibly. What about you, I’m afraid you’ve already filled in the books given to your children, right?
Emperor Yongkang decided to select the children and grandchildren of several ministers and ask them about the contents of their letters of advice.
The Royal Bookstore received such a travel journal and had to print it in five thousand copies, which made me feel miserable.
I don’t know which descendant of an honorable family wrote it, and opened the back door. Five thousand copies of such a travelogue written by a child need to be printed, and they have to be sold in outside bookstores? Can this be sold?
The manager of the bookstore felt bitter in his heart. But how could he not obey the orders given by his superiors?
If you want to print it, how can you not print it? Want to lose your head? It’s not like taking money from him. Printing must be precise!
The manager personally led people to keep an eye on it and worked hard for days. Within a few days, 5,000 copies were printed. Most of them were sold in bookstores outside.
Part of it was distributed by Emperor Yongkang to the children and grandchildren of various ministers. He also specially told the children and grandchildren of British officials, regardless of whether they had been educated in Mongolia or not, to have a copy. He also specially sent his chamberlain, Eunuch Zheng, to deliver it in person.
Zhang Fu looked at the travel notes in his hand and then at Eunuch Zheng who he had just sent away, feeling very puzzled.
How come Huo Nian's travel notes were printed by the Royal Bookstore?
Eunuch Zheng also said that he was not the only one, but all the nobles and the descendants of the ministers and ministers in the court had a copy. But they shouldn't be the chamberlains around the emperor who personally sent the books, right?
Zhang Fu was puzzled and couldn't think of a reason. Could it be the words of encouragement from Queen Renxiao recorded in the travel notes that won the emperor's heart?
His eyes were wide open, yes, it must be like this! I am afraid that the emperor wants to randomly check the descendants of the minister's family to see if they remember the contents of Queen Renxiao's "Book of Encouragement".
I hurried to Zhang Jie's room and saw him holding the travel notes and reading them with gusto. When my father came in, he was so lost in reading that he didn't realize it yet.
Zhang Fu pulled out his book and asked him, "Do you still remember the contents of Queen Renxiao's book of persuading people to do good?"
What kind of book? Zhang Jie blinked his eyes, looking like he had not regained consciousness.
As soon as Zhang Fu saw his look, he knew that he must not have turned over the book. He glared at him hatefully and scolded him repeatedly, asking him to find the book!
How could Zhang Jie remember such a book, so naturally he couldn't find it.
Zhang Fu is so angry. Look at the children born by other people, and then look at the children he gave birth to. How come the sky and the earth are different?
The Royal Bookstore thought that the books delivered to the bookstore would be left to gather dust in the corner. The business was probably ruined and the capital would not be recovered.
Who knew it would be sold out within two days?
In this world, if everyone has something, then it will not be rare for everyone. But if the families of the nobles and ministers have it, but the rich businessmen and common people, the relatives and friends of the nobles and ministers’ families do not have it, then it is okay.
I'm already below others, but why can't I get a book for my children at home? What's the difference? Is it a matter of money? Besides, I'm not short of the money for a book.
As soon as they heard that the book store was selling it, they rushed to buy it, fearing that they would be late and it would not be sold.
The bookstore owner was shocked. What kind of book is so popular? When he wanted to take a closer look, the shelf was empty!
How could there not be such an easy-to-sell book! Print it, print it more!
The bookstore owners took the money and went to the Royal Bookstore to open the back door and ask for more printing. How could the Royal Bookstore not print it?
Don’t want to pay for the delivery? You’re not stupid. Yin!
This time, another 5,000 copies were printed. Within two days, they were gone again. Another 10,000 copies were printed.
The businessman who recognized the business opportunity had already smelled something. He had already bought it on a large scale and shipped it to other cities. Children in other cities could see it, but there was no reason that the children in the imperial city couldn't see it. Print it again!
In this way, the name Huo Nian became famous in the capital and nearby cities.
Siblings Huo Xi and Huo Nian didn't come back to their senses for a long time. I don't know what happened. Why did her brother's name ring out in the streets as soon as she woke up?
A few days ago, people from the emperor's grandson's house sent many rewards and two paintings. They said that the emperor's grandson liked the travel diary very much. The emperor's grandson was only two or three years older than Huo Nian, but he had never written a travel diary.
He said he admired Huo Nian very much and sent him many things.
Seeing that Huo Nian liked painting, he sent two paintings to him for appreciation and study. The other one was designated as a gift to Qin Huaimin.
Qin Huaimin was very happy when he got the painting.
"Grandpa, the grandson of the Emperor gave me a painting!"
Qin Changzhi's mood was complicated. Because of Emperor Yongkang, his family fell from the clouds into the mortal world. Everyone died. Now the eldest granddaughter is still living in dire straits, and he and his grandson have to live with his grandson-in-law. A painting by the emperor's eldest grandson
It really couldn't heat up his already cold heart.
However, seeing that his grandson was happy, he also smiled and said: "Then you should keep it well. At such a young age, the emperor's grandson's paintings have already become a school of his own and have the style of a master. You need to be more attentive."
His grandson could not pass the imperial examination, but he still taught him all kinds of knowledge carefully. He also learned calligraphy and painting well. He had skills, and he could sell calligraphy and painting to fill his stomach in the future.
"Yes. Grandpa, don't worry, your grandson will definitely take care of you!"
Qin Huaimin personally learned how to frame paintings from his grandfather. He carefully framed the paintings of the emperor's grandson and hung them in a conspicuous place in the study, reminding himself every day that he must pay attention to learning paintings.
Huo Nian also framed the painting and hung it in the study. He looked at the things sent by the emperor's eldest grandson, as well as the four rooms of the study given by the emperor, and Yu Ruyi, and he did not come back to his senses.
How did the emperor know about the travel notes he wrote?
The two siblings thought about it for a while, and thought that Mu Jie must have told his maternal grandfather. Mu Jie was taken care of so thoughtfully, and Mu Jie didn't even notice.
He really enjoys how kind the Huo family is to him and is happy in his heart. If the Huo family treats him well, he will repay the favor in the future.
Before the two siblings could digest the reward brought by the emperor's eldest grandson, within a few days, Huo Nian became famous and spread throughout the capital.
