However, few people go to the private room. After all, at this time, most of the people who are still staying in Wanshu Pavilion reading and not reading at home are from poor families.

I couldn’t afford to buy books, so I could only come to Wanhu Pavilion on time every day to read.

Because there were too many people, there were obviously not enough tables on the first floor of Wanhu Pavilion. There was no choice but many people could only sit on the floor, or read while standing, and sit down for a while when they got tired of standing.

As for the original seats, they have reached the point where they need to be snatched up.

Those who arrive a little later every day will not have seats to sit on and will need to find a way out on their own.

Every day the Wanshu Pavilion is packed with people, but only on the first floor.

There are even families who cannot afford to buy books, but they still rush to Wanshuge with their younger brothers or their own children every day.

Wanshu Pavilion is no longer surprised by this kind of situation.

Three days later, someone came from the court. It was the eunuch Hou who served the emperor.

Many people who saw Eunuch Hou and the imperial guards did not quite understand why Eunuch Hou came.

Some people even thought darkly that Wanshu Pavilion would finally be closed.

Until the plaque on the gate of Wanhu Pavilion was replaced.

When the new plaque was put up, the people watching on the street finally understood what had happened to Wanhu Pavilion.

Because of this, there was an uproar among the crowd, and within an hour, Wanshu Pavilion became famous in Yanjing again.

"Did you see that?"

"Hey, did you see the plaque of Wanhu Pavilion?"

People were running around telling each other.

"what?"

"I haven't gone out today, what's wrong?"

"The plaque at the entrance of Wanhu Pavilion has been changed!!"

"Oh, if you want to change it, just change it. Let's still call it Wanhu Pavilion, right?"

"You don't know! The new plaque was sent by someone from the palace!"

"Moreover, the plaque was sent by the eunuch beside His Majesty."

"Still with the Imperial Guards."

"what?"

"what?!"

"Oh my god, Wan Hu Pavilion is really going crazy. His Majesty actually personally bestowed a plaque??"

"Could it be that your Majesty wrote it himself?"

"Imperial Guards Escort, could it really be written by His Majesty himself? Is the Wanshu Pavilion so powerful?"

"I don't know. How should I know? I have only seen His Majesty from a distance. How would I know if it was written by His Majesty?"

"That's right, how could your Majesty's handwriting be known to others?"

"that's right."

"But even if it wasn't written by His Majesty himself, it's still pretty impressive. It was given by the Emperor himself."

"Other bookstores will be furious."

"It's no use getting angry to death. Don't you think about what heroic deeds Wanshu Pavilion has done?"

"That's right, but then again, what does your Majesty mean by doing this?"

"Isn't this obviously supporting the Wanshu Pavilion? Your Majesty must also approve of the Wanshu Pavilion's approach, which is why he bestowed the Wanshu Pavilion with a plaque."

"I don't know, but right now there are a lot of people in front of the Wanshu Pavilion looking at the plaque, and some are trying to get information."

"Come on, let's go take a look too."

"Yes, it was given by His Majesty himself. I have never seen it before. Let's go, let's go."

Almost all the people who heard the news went to Wanhu Pavilion spontaneously. Not only the common people heard about this, but the aristocratic families who heard about it earlier were even more furious.

Tang's

With a bang, the teacup fell to the ground.

This was followed by an elderly voice filled with anger.

"What a great Wanshu Pavilion, what a great emperor!"

"Good, good, good job!"

"Father, now that His Majesty has taken action and openly supported Wanshu Pavilion, should we continue?" Tang Si, the next head of the Tang family, asked with a frown, his tone full of uncertainty.

"Stop it for now. Without the emperor's support, it's already very difficult for us to deal with the Wanshu Pavilion. So far, there has been no results, and all the people we sent out have died."

"Now that we have the emperor's support, it will be even more difficult to deal with the Wanshu Pavilion."

"The most important thing is that there is no library in Yanjing today that can compete with the Wanshu Pavilion."

"It's not there now, and it's unlikely to be there later."

“Now that we have the support of the royal family, Wanshu Pavilion has firmly established its roots in Yanjing.” At this point, the old patriarch Tang sighed heavily.

During this period of time, many people have been sent to investigate the Wanshu Pavilion, and sending more people will only cause more losses.

Nothing will happen to Wanshu Pavilion, and in the end, only their Tang family will suffer heavy losses.

Stop doing something that has no chance of winning.

"Haven't you found out the origins of the owner of the Wanshu Pavilion yet?"

"No news has come yet."

"Send some more people to investigate. No matter what, we must uncover the details of the person behind the Wanshu Pavilion!"

"Yes, father."

Patriarch Tang narrowed his eyes slightly.

It's been half a month and there's still no news. Wanshu Pavilion is really good at hiding it!

snort!

Not only the Tang family, because of the emperor's move, many noble families who had ideas about Wanshu Pavilion also temporarily hid themselves and withdrew the people they had sent out.

Just when the various aristocratic families were asking their men to stop, the teahouses in Yanjing also underwent new changes because of the Wanshu Pavilion.

Inside the Poetry Building

The owners of several famous teahouses in Yanjing gathered in a private room in Fu Shi Lou.

"Boss Cao, all the teahouses in Yanjing have lost customers because of Wanshu Pavilion. Do we still want to continue with that matter?" The person asking the question was Boss Lu, the boss of Yuhuchun.

"Boss Lu, don't be anxious for now. Let's observe for another two days."

The person who answered was not the owner of Fu Shi Lou, Boss Cao.

But it was Mr. Zhang, the owner of another famous teahouse, Yuzhuxuan.

"How can I not be anxious about this?"

"There's Wanshu Pavilion in front and Baichaxiang in the back. Just Baichaxiang, how many of our customers have been robbed in the past few days?"

"Now, even those ladies who don't like to go out always go to Bai Cha Xiang."

"Just for this reason alone we should be vigilant." Boss Lu shook his head disapprovingly, his heart almost furious.

"Indeed, the Fushi Pavilion has had fewer guests these days. There are only about a dozen guests every day. It is completely different from the past."

Boss Cao frowned, thinking that his master meant to ruin the tea industry during this period.

I just didn’t expect Wanshu Pavilion to take action.

All of a sudden, all the teahouses had fewer customers, and he didn't know whether he should take action or not.

"Who exactly is Mr. Bai from Wanshu Pavilion? He was actually given a plaque by the emperor himself."

"Yes, not only that, every time Wanshu Pavilion makes a move, our teahouses will be affected."

"Indeed, our teahouse has been affected several times. Every time Wanshu Pavilion makes a move, there will be no customers in the store for several days."

"Me too."

"Don't even mention yours, the same is true for my Poetry Building."

"But, does Wanshu Pavilion also feel unhappy with Baichaxiang?"

"Why not open it a few days before, or a few days after, but choose to open it when Baichaxiang is the most popular and has the most customers?"

“The number of customers at Baichaxiang has also decreased a lot because of this.”

"Yeah, did Wanshu Pavilion do this on purpose?"

"Not sure. Wanshu Pavilion's actions have always been puzzling, and this time is even more so."

"I feel like Wanshu Pavilion did this on purpose."

"It was clearly said that it would be open after the Spring Examination, but it waited until Baichaxiang became popular before opening. I reasonably suspect that Wanshu Pavilion did this on purpose, because they didn't want Baichaxiang to surpass it in popularity."

"Probably."

"Although Bai Cha Xiang has fewer customers, it is still slightly better than teahouses like ours. Some young ladies and ladies from wealthy families still like to go to Bai Cha Xiang."

"Yes. Miss Xu goes there every day. She is not affected by the Wanshu Pavilion at all."

"is not that right."

While several teahouse owners were discussing the matter, some things were also being discussed inside Bai Cha Xiang.
