Chapter 41: Merry Poetry
Happy times always pass quickly. Li Yaowei and Fifth Yao Xiaoxuan played from afternoon to evening, and the three of them had their own wins and losses, and they were basically happy.
"Xianggong, how many other strange things do you know?"
In the quilt, Fifth Yao's eyes flickered, and under the faint candle flame, it was like a bright moon.
"And many more."
With a deck of playing cards alone, he knows more than a dozen games. Should I spread it in the Tang Dynasty? Li Yaowei thought in his heart, and finally thought about it, forget it, or don't let the Tang Dynasty people lose their minds, if these things affect the fate of the Tang Dynasty, it will not be good.
"Then you will teach me later."
Li Yaowei couldn't cry or laugh, is this an addiction to playing? "Did you have fun today?"
"Uh-huh."
In the final analysis, Fifth Yao is not one of those ladies who keep to herself, she is more like a maverick and a little girl who likes novelty. There are fun things she certainly likes.
"You're having fun, but I'm not." Li Yaojian sighed.
"Why?"
Fifth Yao was puzzled, but Li Yaowei grabbed her hand and led her somewhere.
"Hooligans!" Fifth Yao blushed and said a strange word.
Li Yaowei smiled evilly, covered her body, and gently bit her red lip.
The lilac tongue of the fifth Yao blended with him with fire, full of spring......
The next day, Li Yaoyu, who was having breakfast at home, heard someone visiting, a person he didn't expect.
Du Manwan's best friend Xu Wenmin came to the door with a maid.
"Li Gongzi."
"Miss Xu." Li Yaowei returned the salute, "Is there something wrong with the newspaper?" ”
"Today, when Manwan and I went out shopping, we found that there was an additional newspaper in Chang'an City, which also printed and sold poetry, and many talented people who had previously sent articles to our newspaper office had sent articles to that newspaper."
"Where's Manwan?"
"I've already gone to the newspaper office first."
……
Li Yaowei rushed to the newspaper office, and Du Manwan was holding the new newspaper.
"Merry poetry?" Li Yaowei looked at the name of the newspaper in a daze.
Du Manwan was taken aback by Li Yaoyu's sudden voice, "I'm scared to death." ”
Du Manwan's jade hand patted his chest, making Li Yaoyu stunned, if my hand was patting......
Du Manwan made him look dull, and then realized, hurriedly blocked it with the newspaper, and glared at him shyly.
Li Yaoyu retracted his gaze in embarrassment, "What's the situation with this newspaper?" ”
Du Manwan adjusted her mood and shook her head, "It is said that it is run by some wealthy businessmen, and it has absorbed a lot of scholars. Mainly because we have a high threshold here, many scholars can't wait for the publication, so they transfer to that place. ”
Li Yaoyu pondered for a moment and shrugged his shoulders absently, "Just let them toss." ”
The Flower Moon Poetry Newspaper not only publishes poems, but also publishes articles, so there are not many works that can be published in each issue, and it is indeed difficult to report.
Just like now, there are so many people who write books, and those who chase their inner literary dreams come one after another, but the proportion of people who become famous is actually very small.
"It's okay to let this newspaper take some of the pressure off our shoulders."
"That being said, what if they come from behind?" Du Manwan was still not at ease.
"Have you forgotten our original purpose?" Li Yaoyu said with a smile, "Our original intention is to promote the progress of scholars all over the world, not for fame and fortune." It would be a good thing if someone could take over our business today. ”
Du Manwan suddenly realized, "Childe is reasonable, but I am ignorant." ”
"Besides, you and Miss Xu Wenmin will eventually get married, and our newspaper will have no one to support them."
Du Manwan smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Maybe......"
However, she also agrees with Li Yaowei's words, Xu Wenmin is seventeen years old this year, and she has reached the age of marriage, and it is estimated that she will not be able to help her for long.
This is Li Yaoji's inner thoughts now, he started a newspaper to be famous, and there was a platform for him to publish his works, but now he doesn't need it. He has fame, and there is no need to rush to publish these works as soon as they are written, and there will be time in the future.
……
……
"Sister Qin, Childe is here." Su Yue said to Xiao Qin, who was lying on the bed.
"What is he doing?" There was a hint of color in Xiao Qin's eyes.
"I'm talking about newspapers." Su Yue pursed her lips, "Sister Qin is like this, he actually cares more about the newspaper." ”
"Don't talk in vain." Xiao Qin stopped her, "Childe's great grace, how can we be rude?" ”
Li Yaoji, who was standing outside the door, couldn't cry or laugh, Xiao Qin was overly bound by morality and etiquette, while Su Yue was outspoken and straightforward.
"Xiao Yueyue, you actually said that I am not." Li Yaoyu walked into the room with a smile.
"Childe, the concubine knows that she is wrong." Su Yue lowered her head.
"Childe, don't blame Xiaoyue, she is too worried about the concubine." Xiao Qin was afraid that Li Yaowei would be unhappy.
"Just kidding." Li Yaoyu smiled lightly, patted Su Yue's shoulder, and sat on the edge of Xiao Qin's bed, "I look much better today." ”
"Thank you for your concern."
Xiao Qin's heart is just sick, yesterday Li Yaoyu talked to her, and Su Yue's words made her suddenly realize, the heart knot was opened, and the illness would naturally be cured.
……
Tomorrow is the release time of the new issue of the newspaper, and the staff of the newspaper are doing the final review.
"It's on fire!" Suddenly someone shouted.
"Quick, fetch water!"
"Hurry up and put out the fire!"
Li Yaoji, who was in Xiao Qin's room, heard the shouts outside, and he didn't have time to be shocked, so he hurriedly ran outside to check.
In the room where the paper was stored, the flames were blazing, the window paper, the wooden doors were already fueled in the fire, the wooden beams were also ignited in the fire, the crackling sound of the wooden beams breaking, and the tiles falling and thumping......
Employees desperately carried water to fight the fire, but it was a drop in the bucket, and it was impossible to extinguish the fire with this water alone, and the house was about to collapse.
"Run! Don't save! Li Yaoyu shouted, turned around and went back to the room, and said to Su Yue and Xiao Qin, "Quick, leave first." ”
The fire had spread, igniting the main house, the smoke was billowing and choking many people to cough constantly, Li Yaojian knew that he had to evacuate immediately, otherwise he would choke to death by the smoke even if he was not burned to death.
Li Yaoyu and Su Yue helped Xiao Qin up and walked out of the door, Li Yaoyu shouted at everyone, "Wet your clothes with water, cover your mouth and nose, bend down and run out!" ”
Hearing Li Yaoji's words, everyone was stunned for a while, and then they all did so, and one person saw that Xiao Qin was weak and ran over to help Xiao Qin out.
"Help!" Someone is crying for help!
Li Yaowei's heart was cold, and he asked, "What about Du Manwan?" ”
"It looks like it's upstairs!"
The second floor of the main house is where the manuscripts are stored, and it is also the place where it is most likely to catch fire. The window paper had already started to catch fire in the heat. Li Yaoyu gritted his teeth and handed Xiao Qin's hand to Su Yue, "You help her out." ”
"Childe, where are you going?" Xiao Qin was worried.
"Don't ask, get out of here!"
Su Yue and the worker, knowing that they couldn't delay any longer, pulled Xiao Qin, who was reluctant to leave, and rushed out.
Li Yaoyu took off his coat, soaked it in a wooden barrel, covered his mouth and nose, and rushed to the second floor......
