The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive

Chapter 209: Being stood up for the second time

Hao Youcai was speechless watching the interaction between the cousins.

These two people came in, one wearing a mask and the other wearing a veil, and after a long time, they were just deceiving each other.

What? Mission Impossible?

"In that case, let's leave this troublesome matter to Wen Zhu. He is more suitable for this kind of thing."

Xiao Mingxu immediately decided to leave this trouble to Wen Zhu. After all, Wen Zhu had helped him clean up the mess more than once or twice over the years.

"My cousin is wise."

Jiang Tunan nodded in agreement. After all, those who are more capable should do more work. Wen Zhu acts like he is worth a lot of money every day. It's time to see what he is capable of.

"In this case, I don't have to hide it anymore. Xiao Nannan, you must tell me about your marketing method."

After all, in Mozhuxuan, Miss Taotao's success is obvious to everyone.

"It's easy to talk about."

"And one more thing,"

Xiao Mingxu's tone suddenly became serious.

"School is about to start."

Jiang Tunan: Oh no

Jiang Tunan looked like an eggplant hit by frost. Hao Youcai chuckled.

"I heard that this year's opening ceremony of the Imperial College is very exciting."

"how do I say this?"

Xiao Mingxu unfolded his folding fan and continued what Hao Youcai said.

"Prince Dayin is going to present the Water Dragon Star Sword to the Emperor at the ceremony. Do you want to guess whether it will be Ryokawa Taki or Ryokawa Sawaki who is presenting the sword?"

"I guess it's Ryokawa Taki."

Hao Youcai was the first to guess, and Xiao Mingxu followed up by saying,

"I also guessed it was Ryokawa Taki. Ryokawa Sawaki is the eldest prince of Daiin after all. He wouldn't be willing to do such a thing."

"Cousin, does Lord Dayin favor Ryokawa Zemu?"

Xiao Mingxu thought,

"The Lord of Dayin is a selfish person. If you ask who he favors, there is really no one. But in comparison, he likes the Third Prince of Dayin more."

"Then I choose Ryokawa Sawaki."

"why?"

Xiao Mingxu and Hao Youcai said almost in unison that they didn't believe that Liangchuan Zemu would be willing to do such a humiliating thing.

"Just think about it, Ryokawa Taki forcibly took the Water Dragon Star Sword from his home in order to save Ryokawa Zemu. The Lord of Dayin, who loves treasures like his life, must be unhappy."

"Liangchuan Zemu is not favored by his father, and he also has a brother who is eyeing him covetously. If he offends Daxing at this time, won't he be attacked from both sides?"

"So before the next crown prince of Da Yin is elected, Liangchuan Zemu will probably not blatantly offend Da Xing."

"He might even want to curry favor with Daxing and get the people of Daxing to help him win the position of crown prince."

Jiang Tunan stroked his chin and said in a mature manner,

"Of course, the above is my personal inference, and I am not 100% sure."

"Of course, Xiao Nannan!"

Xiao Mingxu looked at Jiang Tunan in surprise.

"There's something in your little head."

Xiao Mingxu rubbed Jiang Tunan's head lovingly, and Jiang Tunan also leaned over to cooperate. Xiao Mingxu said again,

"If you guess correctly, I will give you a pair of the latest earrings from Qishefang."

Jiang Tunan asked,

"What if I guessed wrong?"

Xiao Mingrui said indifferently,

"If I guessed wrong, I guessed wrong. It's not a big deal."

"Thank you cousin!"

Jiang Tunan clenched his left fist and placed it on his right clavicle.

"Cousin, you! Are my God!"

Hao Youcai sat nearby and rolled his eyes silently. He came here today to listen to the two siblings praising each other.

Hao Youcai: Sometimes I really want to escape.

After a busy day, Master Jiang followed Xiao Mingxu back to the Xiao Mansion.

"I feel like I've forgotten something again."

Xiao Mingxu stood at the gate of the Xiao Mansion and helped Jiang Tunan get off the carriage.

"Who cares? The world is big, but eating is the most important thing."

Jiang Tunan thought about it and realized that there was nothing more important than eating.

However, Wen Zhu, who had been waiting for Jiang Tunan to arrive at Zhuying Pavilion, said:

"Master, Miss Jiang... Miss Jiang has returned to the Xiao Mansion."

Wang Da had a complicated expression on his face. This was the second time Jiang Tunan released the pigeon for Wen Zhu.

"hehe."

Wen Zhu was so angry that he laughed.

"Do you think I was too nice to her?"

Wang Da nodded seriously.

"Ok?"

Wen Zhu glared at him.

Wang Da shook his head reluctantly.

"Forget it. Even if we call her over, I'll be the only one to clean up the mess. So why not come?"

Wang Da looked at Wen Zhu with an indescribable look. No wonder Wen Zhu could become the Pavilion Master. He was so self-consoling.

"Go and inform all the study rooms under the name of Zhuying Pavilion that they will sell the books separately like Mozhuxuan."

Wang Da was a little surprised.

"What do you mean, Master?"

"If Mozhuxuan is the only one that sells books in separate pieces, then Mozhuxuan will become the target of public criticism, and everyone will just want this way of selling books to disappear."

"But if more and more bookstores start selling books in separate pieces, the remaining dissatisfied bookstores will be forced to sell the books in separate pieces under pressure."

Although this move cannot completely eliminate the hatred of the study rooms towards Mozhuxuan, it can at least prevent them from acting rashly in the short term.

Although Jiang Tunan's move did affect the interests of all the study rooms in Kyoto, Wen Zhu had to admit that this matter was indeed beneficial to those students from poor families.

Wen Zhu's thoughts gradually became empty. Jiang Tunan seemed to have no ambitions, but he always surprised people.

First, there was the script at the beginning, then in the cave of the big yin man, he obviously cherished his life, but turned back to save people at the critical moment, and then to the recent promotion meeting. Sometimes Wen Zhu really wanted to see what was in Jiang Tunan's head.

The more Wen Zhu recalled, the more curious he became about Jiang Tunan.

......

In the Xiao Mansion, Duke Anguo, Ji Lian and Xiao Huaimin all looked at the things on the desk with serious expressions.

It was a very exquisite box, exactly the box containing the Feiyun Order that Gu Lang had given to Xiao Mingrui before.

"Are you saying that the box contains the Feiyun Order?"

Duke Anguo stroked his beard and said uncertainly.

Xiao Huaimin nodded solemnly.

"This was sent back to Kyoto by Mingrui through the people of Zhuying Pavilion. He was in Wushi Village at the time, and it was Hu Liang, the son of the former military advisor of Feiyun Army, who personally handed it to him."

"Is there any fraud in this?"

Ji Lian remained cautious, as the Feiyun Order was not an ordinary item.

"At that time, Hu Liang was unwilling to give the box to the people of the Rongguo Mansion even if he had to sacrifice his life. If it was a fake, he would not have done so."

Duke Anguo picked up the box and examined it carefully, then he spoke again,

"Look, there's a groove here. This box must be missing a part. As long as we find this part, we can open the box."

"It's so troublesome, why not just smash it open?"

Ji Lian hated these roundabout things, but Xiao Huaimin on the side tried to stop him,

"No, in the past, the Duke of Zhenguo gathered many talented and righteous people under his tutelage, among whom there was a master of the art of concealment. It is said that no one can break the mechanism he created. This box is probably made by him. If it is broken violently, the box will self-destruct."

"Huai Min, are you talking about Master Guimu?"

"Exactly."

Duke Anguo was also aware of these folk rumors. Guimu was a famous armor-slaying master. He declined the imperial court's several offers of amnesty. However, no one expected that he would eventually become a disciple of Duke Zhenguo.

"It's a pity that Master Guimu has passed away a long time ago, otherwise we could still ask him for help."

Xiao Huaimin looked at the box in Duke Anguo's hand and felt a little worried.

"It's okay. This is not something you and I should worry about. Since the box is in your hands now, you can take advantage of this opportunity to present the sword to the emperor in front of everyone at the opening ceremony in a few days."

Duke Anguo placed his hand on Xiao Huaimin's shoulder and said earnestly,

"The situation is turbulent now. We can no longer stay in one corner. We must climb up to avoid being knocked down."
