Chapter 86 [Xinhua Bookstore] (Subscription Request)
The Crown Prince is a matter of great importance.

The selection of the Crown Princess is no trivial matter.

Emperor Qing did not block the news about this matter, but allowed it to spread.

Soon, almost all the high-level officials in Kyoto knew the news.

Soon, many aristocratic families began to become active.

Many people hope that a girl from their family can be chosen as the Crown Princess.

In this way, you will become a royal relative in the future.

The incident with the Crown Princess made the entire Kyoto lively overnight.

Guangxin Palace.

"Did the second brother really say that?" Li Yunrui asked.

"Your Highness, that's true. The Second Prince recommended Ye Ling'er from the Ye family." The maid replied.

"What does the second brother want to do..."

Li Yunrui is not only crazy, but also extremely smart.

In just a moment, she immediately understood the reason.

"But why didn't he ask for a marriage for himself?"

Li Yunrui frowned slightly.

She felt that if the Second Prince requested to marry Qiu Zhu at this time, he would most likely succeed.

But he didn't do that.

In this case, it is quite intriguing.

"Do you think His Majesty will agree?" Li Yunrui thought and asked casually.

The personal maid bowed and stood aside.

Seeing that the tea in the cup had gone cold, he walked forward to pour it out and filled it with a new cup.

“I don’t know, but His Majesty has already asked the Crown Prince to go to the Imperial Study.

This matter may ultimately require the consent of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Your Majesty now values ​​him highly and is likely to respect the Crown Prince's wishes."

Li Yunrui understood this truth very well.

If this were not the case, Emperor Qing could have issued the decree directly instead of asking the Crown Prince to go to the Imperial Study.

However, Li Yunrui is clear about one thing, it is certain that Emperor Qing must have a candidate in mind now.

But it’s hard to say who will be chosen in the end.

Li Yunrui lowered his head and looked at the deep cleavage on his chest.

In my mind, I couldn't help but recall the crazy scene of the two of them in the bathtub a few days ago.

Subconsciously, she squeezed her legs together.

"The prince is getting married. Do you think I should prepare a big gift?" she said to herself.

The maid didn't respond.

As a personal maid, she is the person who knows her Highness and the Crown Prince best.

Now these words sound a bit strange, making it difficult to guess the true meaning.

"Let's go to the imperial study."

Li Yunrui didn't know what was wrong with him. He suddenly remembered something and walked out of the hall.

The personal maid didn't dare to say anything more and had to quickly get up and follow.

Royal Villa.

The news that His Majesty is about to select a princess for the Crown Prince has now spread throughout Kyoto.

Lin Wan'er and her best friend Ye Ling'er sat together and looked out the window.

"Wan'er, what do you think about this?"

Lin Wan'er looked into the distance, a strange look flashed across her face, and she said:

"The choice of the Crown Princess will ultimately be decided by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself. His Majesty has granted the marriage, and no one can influence it."

Ye Ling'er was silent for a moment, "Your illness seems to have improved a lot. I haven't seen you cough for a long time, and your complexion has improved a lot too."

Lin Wan'er nodded, somewhat absentmindedly.

"Wan'er?"

"Ah, what did you say?"

"I didn't say anything, why are you in a daze?"

"Oh, nothing."

Fan Mansion.

"Master, I heard that His Majesty wants to arrange a marriage for the Crown Prince and select a Crown Princess?"

Liu Ruyu asked curiously.

"Yes, that's the truth." Fan Jian replied.

"Master, whose girl do you think it is?"

Women are generally very curious and gossipy about this kind of thing.

"I don't know. Let's wait for His Majesty's decision." Fan Jian looked at the book in his hand and seemed to be uninterested in this matter.

The Fan family does not participate in party struggles, nor does they choose to take sides.

Therefore, I don't care much about such conflicts of interest.

"Master, do you think it's possible for Ruoruo?"

Liu Ruyu suddenly asked. "Who?" Fan Jian's voice suddenly became louder.

"Ruoruo is not young anymore." Liu Ruyu said.

"She's not young anymore." Fan Jian nodded, "However, there's no rush for Ruoruo's marriage. Let's wait and see."

Parents to enrich people.

In ancient times, children had no say in their own marriage.

Especially for large families, they have no choice.

There is no such thing as love.

Therefore, those touching love stories are very popular.

In recent years, some books have begun to circulate on the market.

Among them, there is a book that is most loved by girls in the boudoir.

Their names are Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai.

"Sir, the matter you asked me to investigate has a result."

Outside the door, a man knelt on one knee.

"Speak." Fan Jian put down the book in his hand.

"In recent years, various books have appeared in Kyoto, covering astronomy, geography, novels, scripts, etc.

After investigation, it was found that all these books came from the Fan Mansion. "

The man briefly stated the results of the investigation.

"what?"

Hearing this, Fan Jian and Liu Ruyu were both stunned.

"Do you know who did it?" Fan Jian asked.

"It's Miss Fan Ruoruo." the man replied.

"Ruoruo?" Fan Jian frowned.

"But is there anything else?"

“According to investigation, these books may have come from the Eastern Palace, but there is no actual evidence. As for whether they are real or not, I’m afraid only Miss Ruoruo knows.

Three years ago, a new bookstore opened in Kyoto, called Xinhua Bookstore.

Over the years, bookstore branches have spread all over the world.

The boss behind the scenes is Miss Ruoruo."

After hearing these words, Fan Jian was stunned.

Within the Fan Mansion, and right under his nose, Fan Ruoruo opened bookstores all over the world, but he knew nothing about it.

That's what's strange.

It is certain that there is someone behind Fan Ruoruo who is helping her and covering up her traces.

This person is most likely the prince.

"Okay, you can leave first." Fan Jian waved his hand.

"Yes!"

The study room suddenly became quiet for a moment.

"Master, this matter..." Liu Ruyu hesitated to speak.

Fan Jian was silent for a long time, thinking for a long time, and then said:
"Just pretend you don't know."

"it is good."

Liu Ruyu nodded.

backyard.

"Ruoruo, I just arrived in Kyoto, and I've seen a lot of things, including a lot of books. Do you know where these books come from?"

Fan Xian looked at his sister and asked.

"I don't know." Ruoruo shook her head.

In this life, for some reasons, the two of them exchanged letters much less frequently.

Ruoruo was busy with other things, so she seldom wrote to Danzhou.

Therefore, there was no mention of Fan Xian mixing the story of the Dream of the Red Chamber into the book.

However, when he arrived in Kyoto, he not only saw the Red Mansion, but also read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, etc.

What's even more outrageous is that he saw a bookstore next to Yishiju today.

It is called Xinhua Bookstore.

He walked in curiously and wanted to look up the dictionary.

Unfortunately not.

If it is really found, then this world will be as absurd as it can be.

Fan Xian is in too daze now.

Sometimes, he couldn't even tell whether he was in ancient times or modern times.

"Hey, Ruoruo, why is there a musket in your room?

Are you contacting Fire Gun?"

Fan Xian suddenly saw a musket in the corner of the house and asked curiously.

"I was curious, so I took it to play with and practice my aiming." Ruoruo explained casually.

Fan Xian nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
