Chapter 27: The Study
Buying a book is a simple thing for the dark guard.
But it's a bit more complicated today.
Qi Moyuan's scattered silver was exchanged for Jin Er by the secret guards, and he also put in ten taels.
Now—
He was going to take 5,000 taels of silver tickets to buy a notebook.
Cherish the word.
It is the largest study in Kyoto.
The Dark Guard stopped in front of the study on horseback, jumped off the horse, and stepped into the study.
The shopkeeper was beckoning the young man to put the books in place, and when he saw the secret guard coming in, he stepped forward to greet him, smiling attentively, "What books do you want to buy from the guest officer?" ”
"Buy some notebooks," Dark Guard said.
"What kind of drawing book do you want?" The shopkeeper asked in a whisper.
Which one to buy made the dark guard stumped.
How did he know what kind of books the princess liked to read?
"Just the ones you like, get a few more," Darkguard said.
The shopkeeper understood, looked at the young man, "Go get twenty copies and put them up." ”
Twenty copies, the shopkeeper said it by looking at the dark guard.
There is no refusal, which means that twenty copies are required.
The Dark Guard took out the silver ticket from his bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper.
Shopkeeper, "......." ”
Is this here to buy a picture book or to exchange it for silver?
Twenty picture books are only ten taels of silver.
But five thousand taels of silver tickets can be exchanged for loose silver for five taels.
This business doesn't make money.
The shopkeeper looked at the dark guard and said, "Isn't there any loose silver on the guest officer?" ”
"No," Darkguard said.
Needless to say.
It's definitely here to exchange loose money.
People who can casually take out 5,000 taels of silver tickets must not be provoked.
But the business doesn't make money, what kind of business does he do?
The shopkeeper beckoned a young man to come over and said, "Go to the backyard and pick up some of the most expensive picture books." ”
The Dark Guard's ears were sensitive, and when he heard it, he said, "All of them should be the most expensive." ”
The book that the prince gave to the princess, how can it be worse?
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Don't worry, the guest officer will definitely choose the best for you." ”
"Our collector's edition of the picture book is worth that price, keep it and want to see it."
The Dark Guard didn't answer.
What kind of words does he read as a killer?
Before the shopkeeper returned to the counter, the secret guard stood there waiting.
A maid walked in outside, and the young man greeted him, and the maid said, "I'll buy two copies of "Hydrangea Story." ”
"You wait, I'll get it for you," the young man laughed.
The young man went to the bookshelf to get it, but he didn't see it for a long time, and asked another young man, "What about "Hydrangea", why is it gone?" ”
"It sold out half an hour ago," the other guy laughed back.
"Why is it sold out, my girl is still waiting to see," the maid said anxiously.
The young man said, "I remember that there are two more books under the counter of the shopkeeper. ”
The other little guy didn't move, and the maid urged, "Go get it." ”
The young man shook his head, "Don't you dare to take it, it's for Miss Jiang Qi, that is, the princess of King Jing'an." ”
The maid was stunned, "You still dare to sell "Hydrangea Story" to her?" Aren't you afraid that she will get angry and burn down your shop with a fire? ”
"I'm just afraid, so I left it for her, as long as the shop has a new book, you must leave a copy for her, and she will pay double money," the young man said.
"But isn't "Hydrangea Story" written about her and the prince of Jing'an?" The maid was puzzled.
The young man flatly denied it, "How is it the story of the princess of King Jing'an and the prince of Jing'an, there are many people in this world who throw hydrangeas and choose sons-in-law." ”
"Those two copies are not for sale, you want, leave one for you, and you will pick it up tomorrow."
The last two books are left for the princess of Jing'an, and the maid is borrowing courage from the sky and does not dare to rob the princess of Jing'an, so this can only be the case.
"Be sure to keep two copies for my girl," the maid told me uneasy.
The Dark Guard stood aside, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
He wasn't interested in reading, but when he heard the words "Hydrangea Story", he really wanted to read it.
When I heard the maid say that it was the story of the prince of Jing'an and the princess, although the young man denied it, the curiosity of the secret guard was aroused, and he wanted to see it.
The young man brought a bag of books from the backyard and placed them on the counter.
Dark Guard said, "Add two more copies of "Hydrangea Story". ”
The shopkeeper was embarrassed, "The small shop has no sale." ”
"I'm going to leave the share for the princess of King Jing'an," Dark Guard said.
The shopkeeper refused again and again.
The dark guard didn't talk nonsense with him either, and put the sword on the counter.
The shopkeeper was stunned in an instant, trembling and picking up the book.
Although the secret guard is hard, he is right, this book was originally for the princess, and he didn't let the shopkeeper suffer.
I touched two taels of silver and threw it on the counter, took the book, picked up the burden and left.
The shopkeeper behind him said, "Quick, let someone copy two more copies and send them, I can't guarantee when the princess of Jing'an will send someone to pick it up." ”
Inside the study.
Qi Mo was reading a book from afar.
Jin Er carefully pushed open the door with the book, and moved sideways to the bookshelf.
That cautious and cautious look, even trying to suppress his breathing, lest he disturb people.
Jin Er is scared.
This is the third time she's been here.
Jiang Juan took the book back casually, but she couldn't read it, so she asked Jin'er to return the book and give her another one.
This girl is also real, I really took a copy, and the result is even more boring than the last time.
Jiang Juan asked this maid to come back to change.
Back and forth, Jin Er felt that she was disliked.
The next time she was killed, she wouldn't come to change the girl's book.
It's just that the more careful I become, the more messy it becomes, and when I take out a book, I take out a copy and drop it on the ground.
Jin Er picked it up, turned around and ran.
Qi Moyuan's brows furrowed tightly, "Put the book down." ”
Jin Er's frightened footsteps stopped, holding the book and looking at him, "But girl......." ”
"I've already sent someone to buy a notebook," Qi Moyuan said coldly.
When Jin Er heard this, she smiled.
put the book down and hurriedly ran to tell Jiang Juan.
The maid walked on the front foot, and the secret guard on the back foot jumped in the window with the baggage, "Master, I bought the book back." ”
Qi Moyuan looked up and saw the dark guard putting the burden on the desk.
"Open."
He wanted to see what kind of books she usually read.
The baggage is tightly bundled and not easy to open.
But as the shopkeeper said, these books are collector's editions, and they look good.
Qi Moyuan picked up a copy casually, opened it and took a look-
A man and a woman are swinging on the swing.
He blushed.
Suddenly looked up at the dark guard, "I asked you to buy a notebook, what did you buy back?!" ”
Dark Guard," ......!!! ”
The dark guard quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake.
Qi Mo turned to the others, without exception.
Thanks to him, he had to take a look at it first, and he had to send it directly......
The dark guard's face turned red and said, "Subordinates retreat." ”
"I've bought everything, what do you want to return," Qi Moyuan said with a stiff face.
"Lock me in a closet."
“……。”
The Dark Guard was a little confused.
But after thinking about it, the princess can't read this book, but the prince can.
The burden is picked up, and there are two books pressed underneath, and three big characters are in the eye: "Hydrangea Story".
Qi Moyuan picked it up casually.
The dark guard locked up the baggage, and was glad that there were still two books to deal with, but his own prince was looking through it, and he seemed to be fascinated.
The dark guard thought about whether to interrupt him, and felt a wave of anger emanate from the prince's body.
Thinking of what the maid said, this book can't really be a story about the prince and the princess, right?
I saw Qi Moyuan read a few more pages, and every time he turned a page, his anger rose by three points.
Before he could see half of it, he threw the book on the table, "What kind of mess is written?!" ”
He glared at the secret guard, "In this case, buy the book for her to see, and I still have a birthday in Jing'an Palace?!" ”
The Dark Guard quickly picked up the book and flipped through a few pages.
The more I look at my back, the more chilly I get.
This book is simply catering to the princess, teaching her to cry, make trouble, and hang herself, and train the princess step by step to become a wife and slave.
