The daily routine of the ancient imperial examination

Even if it was 500 taels of gold, it was only a dozen catties based on the weight unit of their Qing Dynasty. Lu Xiuyuan's behavior this time was indeed very hateful.

After receiving malicious stares from a group of people, he chuckled and returned to the room with his bounty in his arms.

After closing the door and taking a sip of the cold tea next to him, Lu Xiuyuan gradually calmed down.

It's just a way to preserve the books that won't give him 500 taels of gold. It seems that the old emperor combined the rewards from the previous Yellow River plan.

That method worked very well. The fact that the Yellow River did not flood this autumn is the best evidence. It stands to reason that if this plan is proposed, no matter how bad it is, the official position should be promoted to a higher level, or he should be given a different position. But now, apart from money, there is nothing else Nothing at all.

Maybe the old emperor felt that the eldest prince was too showy recently?According to the nature of the other party, it must be a pressure, and then he will only get the bounty?

The truth of the matter is similar to what Lu Xiuyuan guessed. Since the Mid-Autumn Festival, the eldest prince has become more and more arrogant, especially the recent incident involving Zhao Shilang's son Zhao Yu, which caused the second prince to suffer a lot of suppression.

If the old emperor wants to maintain the balance between the two parties, it is necessary to restrict the people on the side of the eldest prince, but the prescription written by Lu Xiu is really good, and he has no choice but to reward him, so he has the present bounty .

But even so, the second prince still gritted his teeth with hatred.

The other party must hate him, after all, he was stealing chickens and losing money. Originally, he wanted to cheat the other party, but his father had acquiesced, but in the end, Lu Xiuzhuan was able to turn the situation around strongly.

The second prince hated him so much that he wanted to kill someone.

Especially when the First Prince didn't pay attention to Lu Xiuzhuan who repeatedly sabotaged his plans!

Because of the faction, the other party's master and senior brother are all right-hand men of the eldest prince, even if he is not favored, he can't win him over, so he still has to continue to sabotage, but this time he has to be replaced by someone else.

The other party had always directly targeted Lu Xiuyuan before, shooting openly and secretly, when traveling or taking office, every time they returned without success, or even gave the other party credit, this time the second prince completely gave up.

Since Lu Xiuyuan is impeccable, let's start with his brother.

He knows the eldest prince's character best, he is as suspicious as himself, but the other party is much stupider than himself, and he is still headstrong.

To deal with this kind of person, all you need is a little rumor and fanning the flames. The other party is sure to snub Lu Xiuyuan in the cold. Maybe that good brother Lu will do the opposite if he makes an opinion.

The more the second prince thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was highly feasible, and then he began to send someone to pretend to contact Lu Xiuyuan.

Patriarch Zhao definitely can't do it, they probably can't get along peacefully with the bloody feud between them, plus Zhao Yu's punishment of flogging the corpse yesterday, patriarch Zhao is still autistic in the mansion.

Then the second prince thought of King Ming.

This candidate seems to be quite suitable. Now anyone who is discerning knows that King Ming is his man, and let his confidant pretend to be a coincidence to meet Lu Xiuzhuan a few times so that the eldest prince bumps into him, and then he slaps him from time to time. The wind ignited the fire.

According to his emperor's brother's personality, it is the most basic thing to snub Lu Xiuyuan, maybe the other party will directly help him get rid of this scourge?

The second prince sneered, and sent an order to his subordinates to call King Ming over.

The guard next to him explained in a trembling low voice: "Your Highness, didn't you say that King Ming should stay in the other courtyard for a full month before going out? You also said that orders from anyone other than His Majesty's summons are not easy to follow."

The second prince choked for a moment, picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at it.

"You idiot, don't my own orders work?"

The guard shrank his neck, ran out of the main hall and went to the other courtyard outside to call for someone.

The second prince behind him saw the guard's embarrassed back, turned his eyes away, and ordered to the side: "Don't let him come back to block your eyes after passing the order."

A black figure in the shadow of the room responded, and then disappeared in place.

After receiving the reward, his senior brother directly gave Lu Xiuyuan two days off, plus Xiu Mu, a total of three days without going to work.

He didn't have the time to care about whether the eldest prince was favored or not, when the people from Yunchen found out the news, that King Ming was seriously injured and was grounded in another courtyard by the second prince.

It seems that the other party let them go when they set fire to Lu's house last time, even though they killed everyone at the scene, they still accidentally leaked the news.

Thinking of the news from those spies, it showed that the Queen's back was covered in blood, and she had been lying on the bed for several days and could not move.

I can't bear it in my heart, but I won't be able to meet each other this time, so let's talk about it in detail when I have a chance in the future.

Prince Ming's affairs have been put on hold for the time being, so the newspaper they are going to launch can be arranged in the next three days.

Lu Xiuyuan was very motivated, so he did it when he thought of it. He found a relatively large piece of rice paper, and began to outline several large sections of the newspaper with a pencil.

Daily news headlines must be eye-catching, in large font size, and focused on the headline.

He thought for a while holding the pencil, and began to write: "Shock!The man went out for many years and returned home. After taking a bath, he disappeared mysteriously! "

Under this headline, he briefly outlined the story in small font.

The man went out to do business for several years. After finally earning enough pension money for the rest of his life, he encountered bandits and escaped back to his hometown after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers.

Seeing the man in such a state of distress and hearing that he was robbed by bandits, the family members of the other party could only comfort him, saying that money is something outside the body, and life is the most important thing.

At this time, the man escaped for his life and came back without a drop of water for two days. The wife hurriedly killed the old hen she had brought as a dowry and stewed it for her husband to eat.

The man was so hungry that he ate all the meat and soup in a few bites, and then the wife continued to do housework after boiling water for the husband and taking a bath.

Then a strange thing happened. The wife who was about to pour the bath water after finishing the housework found that her husband was gone!

But the other party's clothes and shoes are all placed next to the bathtub, so where can people go?

The wife was puzzled, but had no choice but to report the case and ask the county magistrate to help find someone.

The brother who was doing business with this man felt that it was not an easy matter. The wife must have cheated on others, but she was smashed and murdered.

The other party accused his wife of being the murderer in front of the county magistrate, but his wife denied it flatly, and her expression did not seem to be fake.

Who is the murderer?Is it his wife or something else?The whole case suddenly became confusing.

Then Lu Xiuyuan marked a sentence in the lower right corner: "Foretell what will happen next, and see the breakdown in the next issue."

In the early stage, each newspaper must engage in some difficult and surprising cases, and then wait for the next newspaper to publish the answers, so that it is easy to accumulate readers.

For the early cases, he can search "Story Club" and "Approaching Science" that he read when he was a child. The title is scary enough, and the story is attractive enough in the early stage. Bizarre events that happened around me.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the follow-up story, and a stable positive cycle can be formed.

After arranging this suspenseful story, Lu Xiuyuan divided several other parts to arrange the storybook they will release next. Some corners and corners can also be advertised. Afterwards, when the newspaper becomes popular, they can earn some advertising fees.

After a busy morning, he roughly finished typesetting the entire first issue of the newspaper, and then he went to look for Shi Yunchen with the paper in his hand.

The other party was supervised by Yan Ruyi to write new themes for those people, and now seeing Lu Xiuyuan approaching, his serious expression disappeared immediately, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.

"Erlang, you came here so soon? Why don't you take a rest?"

After Lu Xiuyuan nodded and greeted the shop assistants, he took the young master's hand and went to the back yard.

"I'm used to getting up early and I can't sleep at all. After dinner, I made this newspaper typesetting. See how it works?"

Shi Yunchen took the reduced version of the newspaper from him. Although the characters written in pencil are relatively small, the advantage is that his handwriting is clear and does not affect the recognition.

After the other party got the newspaper, Lu Xiuyuan noticed that the young master's eyes were attracted by the enlarged and widened headline at first sight.

Sure enough, the other party frowned and finished the story, his expression lost in thought.

"Is the wife really the murderer? But I don't think it looks like it?"

Shi Yunchen couldn't figure out what the reason was, so he simply grabbed his arm and asked.

"Erlang, why did this man disappear mysteriously? Who is the murderer?"

Lu Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows at the other party: "Foretell what will happen next, and see the breakdown in the next issue."

Seeing his current reaction, Shi Yunchen's breathing stopped, and he fell over with an elbow.

"Are you still cheating on me?"

Lu Xiuyuan took the other's elbow with a smile, put it in his hand and rubbed it before letting go.

"The murderer is the old hen that has been raised for more than ten years. This is what I heard from others before, saying that the old hen that has been raised for more than ten years is like a bone-dissolving pill. If you eat it, there will be no bones left."

The other party looked a little hesitant when he heard this statement: "Then the old hen will have such great power?"

"Well, maybe? This is all heard, but although the effect of bone transformation cannot be guaranteed, it is better to eat less chickens that have been raised for more than ten years."

After all, free-range chickens will eat insects such as centipedes. Over time, more and more toxins will accumulate in the body. Even if it can't make people's bones disappear, if people really eat them, they may have physical problems.

It’s like promoting cancer by eating pickles. The original intention of the news was to let people eat less pickled food, which is unhealthy for the body, but it will inevitably change the taste after a long time of spreading, just like the old hen incident.

Shi Yunchen nodded, probably accepted the explanation, but...

"Will others say that we are false propaganda? After all, the matter of bone transformation is not true?"

"Don't worry about that." Lu Xiuyuan persuaded: "When the next issue of the newspaper is released, it will be in the notes later. The story is to warn the world not to eat free-range poultry for many years. It’s more or less easy to go wrong.”

As long as people who read the newspaper have similar experiences, it will definitely make this topic a hot topic.

After the two decided on the typesetting, Lu Xiuyuan would write the suspenseful stories of each issue in the future, and the remaining serialized chapters would be divided in half between hot and cold themes.

After finishing these things, Shi Yunchen took the simple newspaper in his hand and began to print and engrave according to the font size. If the speed is fast, it should be completed in three or four days.

Everyone started to go about their business, Lu Xiuyuan stayed in the room and had nothing to do, so he decided to sit in the lobby outside and write suspense material for a few issues.

As soon as he opened the curtain and walked into the lobby, he saw a person who shouldn't be here.

King Ming!

Lu Xiuyuan took a tight breath, still guessing in his heart whether the other party was injured?Why would it appear here again?

Then he saw King Ming put his hands on his chest and raised his chin at them.

"I'll take care of all the remaining books in your store, and I'll send them to the second prince's residence in a while to pay the bill."

The author has something to say: No matter how you target Lao Lu, it is useless, and then start to sow discord, but it is more convenient for them to steal the house

The story of the old hen was seen at the story meeting a long time ago, so it is not original.
