In an ancient boudoir of the Shang Residence.
Shang Qingjun sat on a chair in boredom, playing with a teacup in her hand, seemingly deep in thought.
"Elder Sister Monarch Green, there's a joyous occasion, an extremely joyous occasion!”
A familiar voice rang out in Shang Qingjun's ears. She looked up and saw Deng Chanyu running through the door, panting heavily. She was holding a few books in her hands and had a surprised expression on her face, as if she had obtained some treasure.
Shang Qingjun couldn't help but ask curiously,"Sister Chan Yu, what's wrong? Look at your rash expression, what's there to celebrate!”
Shang Qingjun asked as she flipped over a cup and poured Deng Chanyu a glass of water.
Deng Chanyu took the teacup and drank it in one gulp, finally feeling relieved.
Shang Qingjun couldn't help but laugh. Look at how tired you are!" Shang Qingjun noticed that Deng Chanyu was hugging a few new books tightly in her hands. She was also a studious person. She couldn't help but ask," Sister, what books are you holding in your hands?" Could it be that you went to buy books in the afternoon?”
Deng Chanyu hugged the books happily as if they were precious treasures. She gave Shang Qingjun a mysterious look and said," Sister, I waited in line for half a day. People were fighting for them like crazy. I almost couldn't get them. Fortunately, I gave a person a high price of 500 taels of silver before he gave me the books he bought. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to get them!”
Shang Qingjun was dumbstruck. What kind of books were these? They were so expensive, 500 taels. Oh my god, 500 taels was enough to open a bookstore, but Deng Chanyu only spent 500 taels to buy these books!
Shang Qingjun's family had a collection of books, ranging from ancient legends to astronomy and geography. Because she loved reading, she would not let go of any good books. However, she only bought the most expensive ancient books for a few dozen taels of silver. She thought that it was already expensive enough. She did not expect Deng Chanyu to buy these books for 500 taels of silver!
Shang Qingjun was curious and couldn't help but ask," What book did Younger Sister buy? Actually, I also have a collection of ten thousand books here. If little sister wants to read, just say yes. Why spend 500 taels of silver for a few books? It's not worth it!”
Deng Chanyu didn't think much of it. She pouted and said," I'm willing to buy these books even if they cost 1000 taels, let alone 500 taels. Although my sister has tens of thousands of books here, they might not be as precious as these books!"”
Shang Qingjun was stunned. Could it be that the books in Deng Chanyu's arms were really that good? Her curiosity was piqued. She knew that Deng Chanyu had high standards. In fact, her knowledge was on par with hers. Since the book could be praised by him, it must not be simple.
Shang Qingjun couldn't help but urge," Younger Sister, quickly let me take a look. What book is it?" Who wrote this? I have thousands of famous books here. Are they better than theirs?”
Deng Chanyu's lips curled into a teasing smile." Actually, you know the author of these books. He's our current emperor, King Zhou. You might even be his concubine in the future!"”
"King Zhou?" Shang Qingjun was stunned. The emperor had published a book? The cruel and fatuous ruler actually published a book? Shang Qingjun did not believe it and seemed to have lost interest. She said to Deng Chanyu," What kind of good books can he produce? The commoners just want to watch the show. I didn't expect that the works of a fatuous ruler would be so popular among the commoners. Younger sister, you actually spent 500 taels of silver. How ridiculous!"”
Deng Chanyu laughed." The current Son of Heaven is no longer a fatuous ruler. He is a living Bodhisattva in the eyes of the people. His merits are comparable to Goddess Nüwa's. When a Saint is alive, I heard that the people will build a golden body for the Son of Heaven in Goddess Nüwa's temple and share the incense!”
"What?" Shang Qingjun was shocked. What had happened that night? Why did the commoners 'attitude towards the emperor change so suddenly?
Deng Chanyu looked at the incredulous Shang Qingjun and said," The Son of Heaven is wise. He wrote the Hundred Herbs Scripture, textile techniques, and these four masterpieces. They are comparable to holy books. The medical skills recorded in the Hundred Herbs Scripture have saved countless people overnight. These four masterpieces are even more interesting and open up new ideas. They are comparable to divine books!”
When Shang Qingjun heard this, she said impatiently," Younger Sister, give me a book. I want to take a look!”
Deng Chanyu casually took out a book. Shang Qingjun took it and looked at the large words on the cover,'Dream of the Red Chamber'. She couldn't help but curiously flip through a few pages. This time, Shang Qingjun was deeply immersed in it, unable to extricate herself…
