Chapter 116 Dragon Boat Festival
As soon as the last "The Biography of Wu Song" went on sale, it became popular, firstly, because the preface written by Zhongli Daru attracted many readers, and secondly, the "Biography of Wu Song" itself was of extremely high quality.
Originally, Qingqiutang focused on Zhiwei novels, but since the sale of "The Biography of Wu Song", Zhiwei novels have been swept away.
And Zeng Si came this time, and the purpose is very simple.
"The popularity of "The Biography of Wu Song" is unexpected, and after seeing the popularity of "The Biography of Wu Song", there have also been many imitations, among which Yuting Books has launched three popular novels similar to "The Biography of Wu Song", one of which is written by the well-known novelist Sanchi Qingfeng in Kyoto, and its sales are only slightly inferior to "The Biography of Wu Song" under the promotion of Yuting Books. Zeng Si said.
Jiang Han said: "Three-foot Qingfeng? ”
Zeng Si said: "This person's real name is unknown, but his pen is extraordinary, and the popular novels he writes are appreciated by both the elegant and the vulgar, and he is the only one who does not know his real name, but is known as one of the three great talents in Kyoto." ”
After a pause, Zeng Si continued: "So, Qingqiutang hopes that Jiang Gongzi can write another popular novel...... Of course, Qingqiutang took into account what Jiang Gongzi had experienced recently, so he just hoped that Jiang Gongzi could write a popular novel by the end of this year, and the price given by Qingqiutang would not be lower than that of "The Biography of Wu Song". ”
Jiang Han said: "I understand, I do have some ideas recently, but I have been delayed by various things. ”
Zeng Si thought of the turmoil experienced by Ning Guofu, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Jiang Han, and said, "In addition, there is another thing, the hall master wants to invite you to Kyoto to participate in next month's Dragon Boat Festival. ”
It's the Dragon Boat Festival again...... Jiang Han said: "Will this Dragon Boat Festival be very grand?" ”
Zeng Si said: "Naturally. The Dragon Boat Festival will not only invite talents from various state capitals in Dayu to participate, but also invite talents from other countries, with a lot of colors. This year's Dragon Boat Festival will be held by the Guozi Priest Wine, Qingqiu Hall, Yuting Book Store, and Haitang Hall are sponsored, and talents will also be sent to participate, if Jiang Gongzi can participate on behalf of Qingqiu Tang, Qingqiu Hall is willing to give Jiang Gongzi a satisfactory price. ”
Jiang Han nodded and said, "I'll think about it then." ”
Zeng Si was puzzled: "Jiang Gongzi doesn't seem to want to participate in the Dragon Boat Festival?" ”
Jiang Han sighed: "After experiencing this turmoil, I just want to stay at home and study poetry with peace of mind, and I really don't want to participate in any literary meetings. ”
In fact, he just wants to practice martial arts well, and he doesn't think the improvement of his literary name is so important.
"It's okay, if you figure it out, Qingqiu Hall will be at any time." Zeng Sidao.
After sending Zeng Si away, Jiang Han made a difficult mistake for popular novels.
He had ready-made copies in his mind, but one person couldn't support the entire Sanyu Book House.
He had also thought about this matter before, and the solution was to find some down-and-out showmen to ghostwrite for him.
But Ning Guofu experienced a turmoil, and the employees of Sanyu Bookstore also dispersed a lot.
I can't find the right person yet.
In the afternoon, Jiang Han went to see Zhou Hu, Zhou Hu's injury has not yet healed, and he is still lying in bed, but his spirit is much better.
Seeing that his uncle came to see him, he was so excited that he wanted to get up from the bed.
Jiang Han sat on the edge of the bed and comforted him, "It's thanks to you that you can turn the tables around this time, you have a good rest." ”
Zhou Hu said: "Young Master, what will happen to Zhang Yang and them?" ”
Jiang Han said: "Kill the good and risk the merit, and be hanged according to the law!" ”
Zhou Hu's eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's really cheap for them!" ”
There seemed to be a glint of hatred in his eyes.
Jiang Han suddenly remembered that Steward Qin had said that Zhou Hu was an orphan, and remembered the record of Zhou Hu on the Liming Division Intelligence Network: Zhou Hu, a person from Jiangzhou.
Coupled with Zhou Hu's various abnormalities when he mentioned Zhang Yang before, and why he took the risk of sneaking up on Zhang Yang, I am afraid there is another reason besides repaying his kindness.
Jiang Han felt that he might have guessed most of it.
"The prisoners will be escorted to Kyoto, and they will be hanged according to the law, but ...... It is also possible that Zhang Yang committed suicide in fear of crime. ”
Jiang Han said to himself, "Wait another day, hand over the person to you, you will be cut by a thousand knives, and you will be skinned and cramped." ”
With that, he walked out of the room.
Zhou Hu was stunned, suddenly got up, with tears in his eyes, kowtowed heavily in the direction of Jiang Han's departure, and hissed: "Young Master, Zhou Hu will be your person from now on!" ”
……
Jiang Han naturally didn't know that he subdued Zhou Hu just by saying this sentence, he just felt that Zhou Hu was most likely Zhang Yang's enemy, and Zhang Yang was just sentenced to death by hanging too lightly.
Originally, it was naturally more difficult to replace an important person.
But fortunately, he has the tokens of the Leaving Ming Division and the Night Watch Division.
And the status is not low.
……
In the afternoon, Jiang Han was practicing calligraphy, while Qin Muqing was lying on the table and looking at him with a sideways face.
I can't get enough of it!
At this time, Miss Qin Er came over with a maid.
"Sister, brother-in-law."
Qin Muqing got up and said, "Qingyan, why are you here?" Come here. ”
The second lady walked over, sat on the chair, squinted her eyes and smiled: "My sister and brother-in-law are really like the fairy couple mentioned in the play, which makes people so envious!" ”
Although Qin Muqing and Jiang Han have become husband and wife, it is a little unnatural to let his sister praise him like this, and said, "Qingyan, you will have it in the future." ”
Qin Qingyan suddenly became a little lonely, and said, "Will I really have it in the future?" ”
Qin Muqing's heart ached slightly, Qingyan had a serious illness when she was very young, and since then she has been weak and can't help the wind, she will cough violently when she is a little windy, and she will be out of breath when she walks a little faster, and it is really difficult to find a husband.
Miss Qin Er quickly put away her lonely expression, looked at Jiang Han and said suspiciously, "Brother-in-law, what are you writing?" Is it your poetry? ”
