The happy life of a prodigal

It doesn't sound that difficult.

But anyone who has seen the world, whether it is the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, Yan Zhuang who leads the officials in the cabinet, or himself who has traveled through time, knows...

To realize this wish is far more difficult than ascending to the sky!

In fact, in later generations, human beings have sent various aircraft into space, but they have not been able to solve the problem of people's hunger. It can even be said... that day is still far away from the real solution.

Fang Xiu was silent for a moment, and said, "Hao'er, not all questions in this world have answers..."

Chapter 1 Sixteen Beat Them

Hearing what Master said, Zhao Hao lowered his head, his bright eyes flashed with sadness.

Fang Xiu just sighed and didn't say anything.

He is not a fairy.

Many things cannot be solved by him alone...

The carriage was driving on the spacious street, and it took an unknown amount of time before it stopped.

After getting off the carriage, he had arrived at Gujing Street in the south of the city.

Although it is noon, when the weather is the hottest, there is still an endless stream of hawkers and passers-by.

There are tourists wandering around, a lively scene.

The residents of Gujing Street probably never thought of it in their dreams.

After the incident of the female ghost in white, Gujing Street, which was already more and more depressed, returned to its former prosperity in just one month, even more prosperous than before.

The Spring Breeze Building alone has attracted countless drinkers from all over the capital.

In addition, there is Zhuxuanzhai. No matter what time, even if it is windy or rainy, there is always a long queue in front of the door.

There is also the Beijing Normal University Theater not far from here, and there is an endless stream of people who come here to watch the so-called serial dramas.

The surrounding residents have also benefited a lot from the increase in tourists. Just selling some candied haws, sugar figurines and other gadgets is enough to support their families.

Zhao Hao got out of the carriage after Fang Xiu, seeing the bustling scene of Gujing Street, the sadness on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by curiosity and excitement.

The little head looked around, and after a while, it seemed to have discovered something great, and it went to the sugar figurine booth, staring at the sugar figurine intently, with a look of surprise on its face.

This made Fang Xiu, who was still a little worried, feel helpless.

After all...just a kid.

Zhao Hao had never left the palace before, and when he went out occasionally, he only went for a stroll around the royal garden accompanied by the guards.

At this moment, everything in the south of the city is novel to him.

Looking at the sugar figurines in front of him, his eyes sparkled, not because he wanted to eat them, but because he thought these animal-like sugar figurines were very novel.

Just when I was about to ask, I heard an equally immature voice: "Mom, what are these..."

Looking back, I saw a child younger than himself tugging at the woman's sleeve.

The woman looked back and said with a smile, "This is a sugar man."

The child looked eagerly at the animal-like sugar figures, moved his throat, and asked, "Can these sugar figures be eaten?"

The woman smiled, stepped forward and asked the old man blowing sugar: "Old man, can this sugar man eat?"

Seeing his mother walking to the front of the stall, the child showed joy on his face, and his eyes seemed to be shining.

Seeing the guests, the old sugar blower immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Madam, how many do you want, and one only costs two cents..."

The woman turned her head and patted the child's head, and said, "Did you hear that, Grandpa said yes."

After finishing speaking, he took the child by the hand and disappeared into the crowd.

"Hahaha......"

Seeing this scene, Zhao Hao covered his stomach with a smile, and when he returned to Fang Xiu, he still couldn't stop laughing: "Master, did you see that? That child was about to cry just now..."

Fang Xiu also thought it was a little funny, stepped forward, took out two pennies, bought a candy figurine of a little tiger, and handed it to Zhao Hao.

Zhao Hao took the sugar figurine and asked curiously, "Master, don't you want it?"

Fang Xiu glanced at the sugar stall.

The old sugar seller was blowing on the syrup with what looked like a straw.

He shook his head and said flatly: "As a teacher, I have passed the age of eating candy."

Eat sugar... still old?

Although Zhao Hao didn't understand, he still didn't ask further questions.

The taste of the sugar figurines is not good, but the shape is novel. Xiaozheng lost interest after taking a sip.

Fang Xiu took him for a stroll on Gujing Street.

When I walked to a certain place, I suddenly saw a long queue in front of me, almost endless.

He raised his eyes and took a look, only to realize that he had already reached Zhuxuanzhai.

The process of queuing is dull and boring.

Therefore, a juggler realized that it was profitable, and set up a stall not far away.

From time to time, bursts of cheers came from the crowd in line.

Zhao Hao was also attracted by the juggler, pulled Fang Xiu by the corner of his clothes, and whispered: "Master, let's go and have a look..."

Fang Xiu nodded, just about to go there.

Suddenly, a group of police officers in soap clothes came from nowhere, and they rushed through the crowd and rushed straight into Zhuxuanzhai.

Seeing this scene, the people who were queuing were filled with righteous indignation and cursed angrily.

"Everyone is queuing up, why do you force your way in? The prince broke the law, and even the common people are guilty of the same crime, let alone a small policeman!"

"That's right, what's wrong with the arrester, can the arrester stop queuing up?"

"..."

These policemen turned a deaf ear to the accusations and curses of the crowd, and went straight into the Zhuxuanzhai regardless of the obstruction of the guys, and then began to rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

Put the printed books into the cloth bag that I don't know when to take it out.

Seeing this scene, Lu Si was a little dazed. Before he had time to pull out General Dingyuan's tiger skin, the leader of the police took out a notice from his arms and pasted it on the door of Zhuxuanzhai.

Then, he shouted loudly: "The "Romance of the West Chamber", "Nie Xiaoqian", and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" by Zhuxuanzhai are extremely filthy, immoral, and impolite. The imperial court has issued an order to list them as banned books and not to sell them. Sell ​​and circulate, and anyone who violates the law will be fined one hundred cash!"

Dirty, outrageous?

Hearing the arrester's words, the people in line were startled for a moment, and then showed anger.

A commoner scholar scolded loudly: "I've read all these books, so there's nothing offensive about them.

I think... Zhuxuanzhai didn't respect your money and let you hold grudges, so it was listed as a banned book! "

A middle-aged woman shouted in a sharp voice: "They are all good books, but how come they become filthy and immoral in your mouths.

It’s finally something to relieve boredom, and now you have to ban it, ban it, what shall we watch in the future! "

"I moved a bench and squatted here early in the morning. I have been waiting for two hours. Now tell me...

It's banned, it's not allowed to buy, and it's not allowed to watch, why! ? "

A rough, bare-chested man picked up the bench, slammed it on the ground, and scolded with anger, "I'm going to buy it today, so let's see what you can do to me!"

Those policemen obviously didn't expect things to develop like this, standing at the door of Zhuxuanzhai, at a loss, not knowing what to do.

In the past, it wasn't that the imperial court didn't ban books. At that time, there were people who yelled and scolded them, but there had never been such an outrageous situation.

The leading policeman looked at the increasingly angry crowd, wiped off his cold sweat, took two steps closer, and was about to say something.

Suddenly, a loud roar came from not far away: "These dog officials don't care what our people think, bah... beat them!"

Chapter 1 Seventeen

This voice was full of energy, and it spread throughout the entire Zhuxuan Zhai in an instant.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes became more and more unkind.

Watching this scene, the police officers subconsciously took a few steps back, sweating profusely.

This scene fell in the eyes of everyone, making them even more angry.

If it weren't for being a guilty conscience, as an official family member, how could he behave like this.

At this time, the voice sounded again: "We have a lot of people, they can't do anything to us, everyone go up together and beat them!"

The head of the policeman's expression changed, and he was just about to speak to appease everyone's emotions, when he suddenly realized... the eyes of these people who usually see themselves as submissive, have a wolf-like green color that has never been seen before. Light.

"Come on!"

With a shout, the people who were already full of resentment because of the queue rushed towards the arresters.

All of a sudden, angry shouts resounded through Zhuxuanzhai, and even the distant Beijing Normal Grand Theater could hear the sky-shattering sound coming from here.

These arresters usually only deal with a few rogues, but they have never seen such a battle before, and they were all frightened, even throwing the swords in their hands on the ground, and fled in all directions.

Only the leading arrester remained calm, but just as he took out his saber, he was punched and kicked to the ground by the angry people.

When Xia Yixue got the news, she brought reinforcements to disperse the angry crowd.

The arrester was already covered in bruises, and there was not a single intact part of his body. The scene...was horrible.

Fang Xiu covered Zhao Hao's eyes, shook his head and said, "Don't look."

Even so, Zhao Hao still looked at the almost dying policeman lying on the ground through his fingers, feeling shuddering.

Although the statement does not blame the public, the most violent people were still taken down by Xia Yixue.

Ordering them to escort them back to the Kyoto government office, she looked at Fang Xiu.

Fang Xiu, who was watching the fun, seemed to have noticed something, and looked at her at the same time.

The two looked at each other for a moment, Xia Yixue came over and said in a cold voice: "This matter..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Fang Xiu: "It has nothing to do with me..."

Xia Yixue stared closely at Fang Xiu with her beautiful eyes, as if she wanted to see something different from his expression.

After a while, he looked away and said in a cold voice: "Whether you are responsible for this matter or not, since it happened because of Zhuxuanzhai, you cannot get rid of it."

Fang Xiu looked helpless and spread his hands.

In fact, the person who fanned the flames just now was by his side, just a rogue who watched the excitement and was not afraid of big troubles, and really had nothing to do with him.

After Xia Yixue finished speaking, she glanced at the young lady in Fang Xiu's arms, feeling a little surprised in her heart, but still had that icy expression on her face.

Turn around and leave.

Fang Xiu watched her back gradually disappear from sight, and shook his head helplessly.

No matter where you go, you can meet this woman...

"Master..."

At this time, Lu Si in Zhuxuanzhai also saw Fang Xiu's figure, and hurriedly walked in front of him.

Fang Xiu glanced at him and asked, "What's going on?"

Lu Si looked bitter, and said: "I don't know, the young ones. As soon as these arresters came in, they took all the books away. The young ones wanted to ask, but they only said it was an order from the court."

Fang Xiu frowned and asked, "Is there anything special these days?"

Lu Si thought for a while and said: "No, since you came that day, young master, the young one has been conscientious and has never been careless, nor has he offended the officials. The young one really can't figure out why the court wants to list him For banning books..."

Fang Xiu frowned even tighter.

Zhuxuanzhai's three books have been on sale for two months, and they have been selling very well on weekdays. Even when some of the catchers have nothing to do, they will hold a copy of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with gusto .

Can't help it early, can't help it later, why is it banned at this time?

The Ministry of Rites is responsible for the education of the world.

And he just offended the son of the Minister of Rites.

To say that there is no connection between the two, I am afraid that no one will believe it.
