Chapter 469: Excitement
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You said that Head General Yin is trash? His legs are crippled, not his brain. So what if he can’t go into battle to kill the enemy? It’s not a big deal. There have been many examples of civil officials leading troops in the past dynasties. Those civil officials are weak. Could it be that they can go into battle to kill the enemy? I think they’re inferior to Head General Yin.”
“Head General Yin is like a tiger. When the trial of the three divisions is over and King You’s grievances are resolved, the heir will inherit his father’s title and guard Youzhou…”
There was a commotion in the restaurant. Yu Youyao instructed, “Arrange for the people in the capital who are in charge of rallying the commoners to be more careful. Don’t let anyone notice anything amiss. The wind in the capital often represents the wind in the world. We have to let Cousin’s reputation spread throughout the world to overshadow the anger of the people because of
King You’s case.”
The anger of the people had arisen because of King You’s case. It was only right that the heir of King You took over Shandong.
The greater the impact of this battle in Shandong, the more difficult it was to let King You’s case go. After all, King You and his father had both made great contributions to the Great Zhou. If the Imperial Court couldn’t understand and made King You bear the bad reputation, not to mention how difficult it would be for Yin Huaixi who had just made a contribution to calm down, it would probably disappoint everyone in the world.
Those who participated in the three divisions’ trial could not be ignored.
Chang An nodded in agreement.
Yu Youyao stood up and said, “Let’s go elsewhere to take a look.”
After leaving the restaurant, Yu Youyao strolled along Chang’an Street.
As the situation in Shandong was good, Chang’an Street had returned to its usual prosperity and liveliness. The commoners had to gather in groups of three to five to discuss the war in Shandong.
It was better to be an advocate of peace than to live in a chaotic world. Even if life was tougher, it was still better than living during war.
The situation in Shandong had indeed calmed the hearts of the people.
Yu Youyao noticed a bookstore by the roadside.
The waiter took out a stack of books and shouted outside, “Don’t miss it. Read about how the heir, Yin Huaixi, will destroy the alliance of the Shandong Clan and plan to kill the Ye Clan Leader to instigate the rebellion…”
At the moment, what people were most concerned about was the war in Shandong. When they heard many people’s discussions, they were also confused. When they heard that there was a book, they stopped to buy them.
Yu Youyao was amused and entered the bookstore
Immediately, a server welcomed her. “Little Young Master, do you want to read or buy books? Our shop has a complete collection of books, and we even release all kinds of books every month. Recently, the most popular books are about the war in Shandong…”
Yu Youyao said, “Just a book about the war in Shandong.”
The server introduced, “I see that the Little Master’s clothes are extraordinary. I think you definitely don’t like the typical script sold on the streets. Our shop has a collector’s version. The person who wrote the script is the master of this imperial examination. The ink brushes he uses are all top-notch. I guarantee that they’re worth it.”
Yu Youyao couldn’t help but ask, “Other than the collector’s edition, what other versions are there? What’s the price?”
The waiter was eloquent. “The ones sold on the streets are the most ordinary ones. They only cost 20 copper coins a copy. The hardcover version costs 500 copper coins a copy, and the collector’s version costs one tael of silver…”
Yu Youyao compared them. The three versions were indeed very different. “Give me a collector’s edition.”
The waiter was overjoyed and quickly said, “We still have other books about
Prince Yin. Do you want to take another look?”
Yu Youyao was stunned when she heard this. Her cousin’s reputation had just spread, but there were already books about him in the past?
The waiter introduced non-stop, ‘”Heir Yin’s Great Breaking of the Treasure
Cage Chess Game’, ‘Heir Yin turns the tide and resolves the predicament in Youzhou’, ‘Heir Yin resists the Di people’, and ‘Heir Yin endures humiliation and pleads for his father’. Our shop’s reputation guarantees that all the scripts are based on the true events of Heir Yin and are not fabricated. Recently, the scripts about Heir Yin have been very popular. I’ve already bought a batch
yesterday, and these are the new ones today…”
Yu Youyao was convinced by the server and also bought a copy. They were all collector’s editions.
In the end, the waiter pushed out more sets of books. “Don’t you want to know what kind of local customs can raise a genius like Prince Yin who has descended to the mortal world and is covered by literature?! Our shop has the most complete books on Youzhou culture on the market…”
Yu Youyao thought for a moment. “That makes sense. I’ll get a few.”
The waiters eyes darted around. “Shandong has always been a tough nut to crack. Our shop has many books about Shandong, including biographies, scriptures, history, and so on. We’ll introduce the complicated situation in Shandong in detail for you to understand the war situation in Youzhou and the heir of Yin…
After paying and leaving, Yu Youyao tilted her head to take a look. Chang An was already carrying a stack of books.
The waiter held onto the door frame and waved enthusiastically. ‘Guest, come again next time!”
Clearly, her cousin had become famous recently. Many customers who had entered the shop had been fooled like this and bought a bunch of storybooks.
This was an amazing tie-up.
Amazing job, cousin!
At this moment, Yin Huaixi, who was far away in Shandong, had also received a large stack of books about himself from his subordinates.
Yin Huaixi picked one and casually flipped through a few pages. The content of the book was nothing more than a slightly exaggerated and gorgeous story about the joined forces strategy to break the alliance of the clans.
Even Yin Huaixi couldn’t help but twitch his lips. “Yin Qi, explain what kind of nonsense this is? I asked you to keep an eye on the capital, and you’re keeping an eye on this?”
Seeing that Young Master was a little displeased, the black-clothed Yin Qi silently lowered his head. “This, this was all instructed by Young Miss. She said that she wanted to build momentum for Young Master.”
With that, he lowered his head again.
Instantly, the tent was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop
Yin Qi tried his best to reduce his presence when Young Master’s indifferent voice came from above his head. “The wind in the capital often represents the wind in the world. Although her methods are a little crude, it’s not a bad idea. She used the influence of the battle in Shandong to push the boat and kill two birds with one stone.”
Impressive, Young Master. You’re very skilled at changing your words!
Yin Huaixi had already made arrangements and schemes for what would happen after the rebellion.
Yu Youyao knew the court well and used the public opinion of the world to pave the way for him. She had put in a lot of effort, which saved him a lot of trouble.
However, this method!
Yin Huaixi looked at the exaggerated words in the book and was a little embarrassed. “The planned schemes of the world are often better than thousands of natural occurrences. By controlling the situation, the world is in our grasp. What’s wrong with that?!”
After escaping another calamity, Yin Qi heaved a sigh of relief.
This was the first time he had heard Young Master praise someone so refreshingly. He was lying through his teeth.
He had heard everything!
Young Master clearly despised it to death, yet he still said that it was such a mess..
