However, just as the two of them were excited and ready to continue watching, a gentle notification sounded from the loudspeaker on the roof."Dear customers, our business hours are over today. Please come back tomorrow.”
"Closing already?"
Du Ruhui was surprised. Wasn't it noon? Why was this shop closing so quickly?
When he raised his head, Cheng Yaojin, who was beside him, also raised his head. It was obvious that he was also puzzled by the same question.
The two of them subconsciously looked at the sky outside the window. Only then did they realize that the sun had already set in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the earth.
It was already at this time?
"Oh no, I forgot to report to the emperor!”
The two of them were stunned, and their faces immediately became a little awkward. They did not expect that they would be so engrossed in reading that they did not even feel the passage of time.
When he turned around, Princess Jin Yang had long disappeared.
They had no choice but to leave after discussing in low voices.
The next morning.
In the throne room of the Imperial Palace, the daily morning court session was being held.
"Dear ministers, do you have anything to report today? If there isn't, then retreat!”
Li Shi Min sat on the dragon throne with two dark circles under his eyes.
For the past two days, he had been engrossed in comics. Every night at Empress Zhangsun's place, he would read until very late. Now, he felt that his eyelids were fighting, so he really was not in the mood for early court.
Du Ruhui and Cheng Yao looked at each other and prepared to step forward to report the matter of the phone.
However, before they could say anything, an old man in a civil service uniform stepped forward first. After bowing, he said loudly,"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
"Speak!"
" Your Majesty, recently, there is a kind of picture-story book called Dragon Ball circulating in Chang 'an. The content is vulgar, the writing is straightforward, and it advocates violence. It has attracted a group of young people who are obsessed with it and compete to imitate it. They have no interest in reading. Your Majesty, this book has already corrupted the minds of the students in the academy. It should be listed as a forbidden book and burned. The bookstore should be closed and never opened again!”
This civil official was the old teacher of the academy.
After he was rescued yesterday, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he could not swallow this anger. He could not stop the students from looking at the dragon ball, so he decided to report to the court today and ban the book.
"Bullsh * t. Who dares to say that the Dragon Ball is a forbidden book?"
Cheng Yaojin didn't want to talk to this old man, but he heard him say that he wanted to seal the Dragon Pearl. He started cursing without thinking.
He had only started reading the Dragon Ball yesterday. It was a rare good book that interested him. Now, he was addicted to it. If it was banned, where would he read it in the future?
"Zhijie, don't speak foul language in the hall!”
Du Ruhui immediately reprimanded Cheng Yaojin.
It sounded like he was blaming Cheng Yaojin, but the old officials present knew very well that he was actually protecting Cheng Yaojin. He had said it in advance to settle the matter and prevent those rotten scholars from the aristocratic families from finding trouble with him.
"Hmph, this book advocates violence and indulges in wild imagination. What 'extraterrestrial visitors' is there in the book? Such a strange and chaotic statement was simply a contempt for the gods and buddhas in the sky! Your Majesty, this book can't be banned. Heaven can't tolerate it!”The old man glared at Cheng Yaojin with disdain and said righteously.
Cheng Yaojin pinched his nose and chuckled."Old teacher, not bad. You even know about extraterrestrial visitors? This is the content after the twentieth volume of the Dragon Ball. I didn't expect you to have seen it already! Tsk tsk, he said that he was reading forbidden books, but he had read quite a lot!”
The old man was stunned when he heard that. Then, his face turned red and he explained himself,"Hmph, what do you know? I'm here to identify poisonous creatures. As long as I can get rid of this malignant tumor and clear the name of the literary world, I'm willing to be corroded by poison and be smashed into pieces!”
When the surrounding officials heard this, they all secretly called this old man shameless. They were clearly addicted to reading other people's books, but he actually refuted it as testing the poison with his body.
However, a book that could make the old pedantic scholar lose his composure and curse while reading had piqued the interest of many people. They all secretly remembered the name of the Dragon Ball.
Du Ruhui also stepped forward and bowed to Li Shimin."Your Majesty, I also have something to offer!”
"Oh? If Keming has anything to offer, just say it!”Li Shi Min, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke.
Du Ruhui took out his phone from his sleeve and showed it to everyone."Your Majesty, please take a look. This is called a mobile phone. It is produced in the Worry Relieving Book House that sells dragon balls. As long as you hold this, you can communicate with others from thousands of miles away. If this item can be used in battle, it will certainly achieve twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, I suggest that all Tang officers should be equipped with mobile phones!”
