Chapter 186: Checking in at County Bookstores
[Sign-in location: Zhouxian Pingjin County Official School Book House, does it cost 2 points to sign in? ]
Discovering Wen Daozhi's book was a pleasant surprise. Yu Hongdou did not forget the original intention of coming to the bookstore, but she still signed in before making rubbings of the books.
【Successful sign-in: Get 1 set of Pingjin County Chronicles.】
County annals? Good stuff!
As expected of a government-run school, Yu Hongdou felt that the expenses at these two points were worth it.
Looking around, she saw that Tan Yanlin had already walked to another shelf where books were placed. Yu Hongdou also followed the wall and started searching row by row.
The rubbing talisman is very easy to use. Just hold it in your hand and touch the book, and you can directly add an identical book to the system backpack.
Currently, what Yu Hongdou got from Wen Panguan in the City God Temple were all level 2 rubbing talismans. One level 2 rubbing talisman could be used to buy ten books of talisman paper, which was equivalent to ten taels of silver in cash.
Probably because it was an official school, there were not many miscellaneous books, and most of them were poetry, travel notes, and academic books. Yu Hongdou was not very interested in them, but for the sake of her brother, she still picked out ten books that were not available at home and made rubbings of them.
"Hey, do you have any books like storybooks and drama scripts?" Tan Mengao was impatient to read these boring books, so he directly asked the aloof-looking waiter at the counter.
"Yes." The waiter glanced at Yu Hongdou behind the shelf, his eyes showing caution and avoidance.
Yu Hongdou tilted her head back and glanced towards the counter, just in time to see the waiter secretly handing a few books to Tan Mengao.
It was obvious what kind of book this was. She turned her head away with a bit of pride and secretly complained, what a bunch of old-fashioned people! She had read more exciting and colorful books.
They didn't spend much time in the bookstore, and there weren't many books. The clerk looked at Yu Hongdou as if he was guarding against a thief. It was unclear whether he was afraid that she would damage the books or he looked down on her for being able to read.
Yu Hongdou felt bored and didn't want to drag An Hedi and the others into boredom with her.
She randomly picked up two poetry books and prepared to check out. She couldn't just flip through them for a long time and not buy any of them. She wasn't that thick-skinned.
"You don't need to buy this one. It overlaps with the Yishan Poetry Collection I gave you."
Tan Yanlin looked at the two books in Yu Hongdou's hands, took one of them and put it aside, then put the other one together with the one in his hand and handed it to the waiter.
"Oh." Yu Hongdou didn't really pay attention to the content, nor did she reject Tan Yanlin's behavior.
Just two books, but in the past few years, the books this person gave her have almost filled up her small study.
Later on, she gradually recovered and I could give him a copy of the county annals I had just obtained.
"Dad, did you buy a new copy of The Great Edict?" Yu Hongdou looked at the book in her father's hand with some surprise. How come she didn't see it?
"Well, I heard that the old woman in the next county who poisoned the entire village for her daughter was included in the "Great Edict" to warn the world. Let me see what it says." Yu Sanlang also saw this on the shelf behind the waiter.
"Oh, that old woman is so pitiful." Yu Hongdou gnashed her teeth in hatred when she mentioned this.
"Is it about the case in Pan'an County where an old woman and her daughter were bullied by the entire village, and in anger she poisoned and killed everyone in the village?" After reading this issue of the Great Edict, Tan Yanlin immediately knew which one the father and daughter were talking about.
"Well, the whole village bullied this poor mother and daughter for more than ten years. It's really disgusting. The court has ordered to treat women, children, the elderly and the weak kindly. The people in that village are really dead... It's hateful."
Yu Hongdou almost said what was in her heart. Although the people in that village deserved to die, she still felt burdened to do it in public. After all, nowadays, the law does not punish the masses.
Nearly a hundred people died for two people, which was considered an unequal and extreme act in the eyes of most people.
"Don't you think the old woman's methods are too cruel? After all, there are still many innocent people in the village."
Sure enough, Emperor An He found Yu Hongdou's furious expression interesting and asked a necessary question.
"I remember there was a law in the Qin Dynasty that if you saw a robber within a hundred steps and did not help him, you would be punished with two sets of armor. That old woman and her daughter were bullied by the whole village for more than ten years."
Yu Hongdou did not directly answer Emperor Anhe's question, but instead used Qin law as an example.
Why do people in later generations increasingly worship Lord Zulong? Because Zulong was mighty and powerful, unified the world, and his policies were clear and his laws were strict, and some of his laws were fairer and more just than those of later generations.
Of course, this fairness and justice is only relative and one-sided, but it also proves that such regulations are exactly what most people in later generations want.
"You have also learned Qin Fa?" Emperor An He was surprised and glanced at Tan Yanlin. What kind of books did you give her?
Tan Yanlin was also surprised. He had given her many history books, but not many that related to law, because he was afraid they were too boring and she would not want to read them.
"No, I just saw it occasionally." Yu Hongdou shook her head. She couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
It was just that there were too many fan fictions about Zulong at the time, and unfortunately she was obsessed with it for a while, so she remembered some of the content.
Emperor An He looked at the little girl pretending to be nonchalant, and once again thought of his grandson in his mind. Finally, he glanced at the three handsome nephews and grandchildren around him and sighed.
How nice it would be if this was my grandson.
Yu Hongdou didn't know about Emperor An He's complicated psychology, so she decided to skip this topic and go to the next destination - City God Temple.
It's a pity that she was disappointed.
"The City God Temple in this county closes its doors to visitors on the third day of every month. One is for cleaning, two is for preparing incense, and three is for the City God to take a bath." This is what the vendors in front of the City God Temple said.
The City God Temple here is not in the downtown area, but in the northeastern part of the city, with a square square in front of the gate.
There is a long staircase leading from the square to the City God Temple, and the main entrance of the City God Temple is at the end of the staircase.
Yu Hongdou stared at the column of dim green light in front of the gate, but she didn't want to go over and touch it in public.
"Let's come back after your brother finishes his exams." Yu Song couldn't bear to disappoint his daughter, so he made a promise.
"Yeah." Yu Hongdou nodded. She still wanted to know whether this City God would send different things from the one in Wu'an County, so she had to come here.
They didn't get to go to the City God Temple, but there were other good places to go, so they went to a teahouse.
This was the first time that Yu Hongdou came to this place. There were several small teahouses in Wu'an County, with all kinds of people coming and going. Yu Hongdou did not dare to go in, nor had any interest in going in.
"I heard that their peach cakes are very famous, and the stories told by the storyteller are also novel. It is said that they are stories passed down from generation to generation in their family."
As a caring servant, Changhe has already found out all the delicious and fun places in the city.
"Today we happen to be retelling the first chapter." Tan Mengao pointed at the sign in front of the teahouse.
Yu Hongdou took two steps forward with some curiosity, preparing to take a closer look at the words on the signboard, when suddenly someone behind her grabbed her arm and pulled her back, and a stream of water fell from the sky right where she had just stood.
"Be careful." Tan Langxiu pulled the little girl to Yu Sanlang.
With a flick of his hand, a stone flew into a cracked window on the second floor.
"Ouch!" A delicate cry of pain was heard, and then the window opened wide, and an angry face appeared from inside.
