Qian Duoduo, a renowned physician from the 21st century, has transmigrated into a new life!
Her mother was an unfavored concubine in the cold palace who died during childbirth. Shortly after ...
Yun Yishu shouted, and the notebook he was holding immediately fell to the ground.
"You really can't judge a book by its cover! Father Emperor values Jin Jinzhi so much, but who would have thought he would actually want to rebel?!" Yun Yishu said in disbelief.
"Duoduo, how could you trust him so much?!"
"Fortunately, I haven't had much contact with him lately."
Yun Yibo shook his head, looking at Yun Yishu as if he were a fool.
"Hey third brother, use your brain."
"Why do you believe everything you hear? If Jinzhi really wanted to rebel, why didn't he accept the tiger tally for the Zhennan Army when Father gave him it after he arrested Marquis Tan Biao of Chi Nan?"
"Besides, wouldn't it be more convenient for him to start his army from his base in the northern frontier and fight his way all the way to the capital?"
"Why bother with all this trouble, transferring all the troops to the capital?!"
Yun Yibo looked at Yun Duoduo: "All of this, perhaps, is for Duoduo's sake."
Yun Duoduo understood at this moment, and she was deeply moved.
She believed in Kim Jin-ji and knew her character well, so she knew she would never do anything like a rebellion.
[Waaaaah, my brother Sumire is so good...]
"For Duoduo?"
Yun Yishu couldn't understand again, so he frowned and looked at Yun Yibo.
"Forget it, figure it out yourself. You wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you!"
Yun Yibo waved his hand impatiently.
Yun Duoduo picked up the book that Yun Yishu had dropped on the ground, and saw that the handwriting on it was Yun Yibo's handwriting.
She flipped through the notebook, read a few pages, and exclaimed in surprise, "Eldest brother, this is a storybook you wrote?!"
That book is about a group of people living a carefree life in the martial arts world.
"Elder brother, I love stories like this about chivalry, heroes, and brotherhood amidst the dangers of the martial world!"
Yun Yibo scratched his head sheepishly: "Oh, I just wrote this because I had nothing else to do..."
Yun Yishu looked surprised: "When I was looking through it just now, I felt that it looked like the eldest prince's handwriting."
"Here you'll also find 'Miscellaneous Talks in the Capital' and 'Stories from the Ministry of Rites'..."
Yun Yishu looked at the place where he had just taken out the storybook.
As they were talking, the door was pushed open and Shangguan Qin'er walked in.
"Duoduo, come on, try these. These are hawthorn cake, autumn dew white wine, and yellow pear syrup that I bought from Pinxiangzhai."
Shangguan Qin'er placed an exquisite bamboo leaf food box on the table.
"Thank you, Eldest Sister-in-law. I really like the hawthorn cake from Pinxiangzhai."
As she spoke, Yun Duoduo opened the lid of the food box, picked up a piece of hawthorn cake, and chewed on it.
Shangguan Qin'er noticed the notebooks in their hands, smiled and said, "You two should help me persuade your brother. He's been cooped up in his study every day writing these things, not eating properly or sleeping well."
"By lighting candles every day, my eyes will be ruined!"
Shangguan Qin'er shook her head helplessly.
“Sometimes, he’d wake up in the middle of the night to write these stories. He said the main characters in these stories are all his friends, and he couldn’t just leave them behind…”
Yun Duoduo coughed softly.
Just now, my eldest brother said that he was just writing this casually because he had nothing else to do.
[Seriously, that's a real slap in the face!]
"Qin'er..."
Yun Yibo tugged at Shangguan Qin'er's sleeve, signaling her to stop talking.
The group ate pastries and chatted about everyday things, while Yun Duoduo flipped through the pages of a book as she talked.
"Elder brother, would you be willing to let more people see the stories you've written?"
Yun Yibo smiled and said, "Who would want to read my story?"
“Guan Guan’s family owns a bookstore. They can put the stories you’ve written in their bookstore for sale.”
"Take it all, take it all!"
Seeing Yun Yibo's hesitant expression, Shangguan Qin'er spoke up, taking down all the booklets and notebooks from the bookshelf as she spoke.
She knew very well how much Yun Yibo wanted others to see the stories he wrote, but he was just a little embarrassed to say it.
Yun Duoduo smiled and nodded: "Okay, then my third brother and I will go find Guan Guan!"
"By the way, eldest brother and sister-in-law, these are pancakes, steamed buns, pickled vegetables and salted duck eggs that I had someone make."
"How does it taste?"
Yun Yishu raised an eyebrow, took out several dishes of food from the food box, and placed them in front of the group.
"What, does the third brother want to be the manager of a restaurant?" Yun Yibo said with a smile, picking up a plump, white meat bun.
"Heavenly secrets must not be revealed."
Yun Yishu shook his head smugly.
"Hmm, this tastes pretty good!"
Yun Yibo finished a large meat bun in just a few bites.
"The taste is not bad?"
Yun Duoduo looked at Yun Yibo in disbelief, then grabbed a steamed bun and took a bite.
The soft dough and the savory pork filling surprised her greatly.
"It tastes really good!"
The group ate and chatted for an hour, after which Yun Duoduo and Yun Yishu left the Prince Rui's residence.
...
After leaving Prince Rui's residence, Yun Duoduo and Yun Yishu headed towards Prince Guan's residence.
Guan Guan was tending to the flowers and plants in the courtyard when he heard that Yun Duoduo had arrived, so he quickly went to greet her.
"Princess!"
"This humble woman greets the princess and the third prince."
Guan Guan bowed to the two of them, and Yun Duoduo quickly helped her up.
"Guan Guan, I came to see you today without telling you."
"Won't this bother you?"
Guan Guan smiled and pulled Yun Duoduo inside: "Princess, you're being too polite. You can come anytime. I usually just read books in the manor and occasionally go back to the bookstore to help my father."
"What a coincidence, I'm here today also because of the bookstore."
The group walked to the front hall and sat down. Yun Duoduo and Yun Yishu placed the books they had brought on the table.
"Guan Guan, what do you think of these storybooks?"
"Storybooks?"
Guan Guan touched the notebooks on the table.
"Take a look at the contents. Can you sell it in a bookstore?"
As they were talking, Guan Guan's maid, Pearl, came in carrying fruit drinks and dried fruit.
Yun Duoduo grabbed a handful of dried crabapples and chewed them.
Guan Guan flipped through the book for a while, then his eyes lit up: "Duoduo, this is much better than the storybooks I saw in my father's bookstore!"
She couldn't bear to put down the storybook, wishing she could read every single word inside.
"So, does that mean we can sell them in bookstores?"
Yun Duoduo glanced at Yun Yishu, who was also very excited.
Guan Guan nodded: "I can have the shop assistants and apprentices at the bookstore copy this storybook several hundred times, using yellow straw paper, white paper, and Xuan paper respectively."
"After copying, they were packaged in yellow straw, blue hard cover and lambskin respectively, and then the artist was asked to draw matching patterns and illustrations on them."
"That's great!"
Yun Duoduo clapped her hands. If she could share her eldest brother's story with others, her eldest brother would be very happy!
"How about I take you to the bookstore now?"
