The prefect of Cangzhou was an interesting person, capable but unlucky. Because of his own misdeeds, he was never able to rise in rank. In fact, he wasn't doing badly in Cangzhou, since the prefect was a person of some importance in the local area.
Previously, the prefect had no choice but to accept the offer because all avenues for advancement were blocked. Now that the eldest prince was in Cangzhou, if he gained the prince's favor, the prince would certainly not let him continue in this predicament. That is why the prince extended invitations to him several times.
Xu Nian said, "Eldest Prince, we've arrived."
They went to the restaurant, where everyone who was supposed to be there had already arrived, including the prefect.
The prefect's surname was Wang, Wang Qiang, and he was indeed capable. He made friends through literature, and this place could be considered a contest of literary talent. Wang Qiang put in a lot of effort, and the students he found were indeed quite capable, but that was all just on the surface.
Bobo can see that some people are probably unworthy of their positions, and as for why they can speak eloquently, that's Wang Qiang's skill.
Bobo found it boring. If Wang Qiang had just shown his skills, he might have thought more highly of him. He did have skills, but his methods were too underhanded.
He acts in a somewhat dishonest manner, or at least gives off a dishonest impression, making people feel uncomfortable.
Bobo dealt with the situation and, finding an opportunity not to let the prefect detain him, left the restaurant with his own men.
Zhang Tingyu could see what Bobo could see, but he didn't say anything.
After Bobo and the others left, Wang Qiang couldn't help but get angry.
After she finished being angry, she didn't dare let anyone know. After all, the First Prince had just left. What did she mean by being angry? If the First Prince found out, wouldn't that be like putting her own eyes on someone else's face?
"It's still early. Since we're out today, there's no rush to go back. We've been in Cangzhou for quite a while now, but we haven't had a chance to see the sights. Now that we have the opportunity, it's fine to go back a little later."
Since Bobo said so, they naturally had no objections.
They found a place to get off the carriage. It was already afternoon, and there weren't many people on the streets. The place looked rather desolate. Bobo was planning to go to Wu's Department Store, since it was, to some extent, part of the royal property.
Before he could even speak, he noticed a bookstore with a very unique decor that said it only served female customers, which piqued Bobo's interest.
"Xu Nian, go and find out why this bookstore only serves female customers."
Xu Nian: Yes
Zhang Tingyu had just realized what was happening and wanted to say something, but Bobo gave the order too quickly, so he could only keep quiet.
