Chapter 31
Yan Heng stopped asking the Second Princess for a token to leave the palace for sightseeing and instead began to read books.
Yun Song was genuinely happy to see this.
Within nine stars.
"Master, although the picture books you distributed sold well and sparked considerable discussion, most of those booksellers have recently been arrested."
"I see"
Removing trending topics is a common occurrence; their PR team was indeed quick to act.
"So what do we do next?"
"Let me think about it."
"Then don't be too anxious, Master; your health is the most important thing."
Su Wanxing cupped Shijiu's face in her hands and gently kissed him.
"Nineteen, aren't you afraid of being arrested by the authorities? You're distributing those books on the black market; many booksellers earn more money than they could in a lifetime."
"What do I have to fear? I'd be fearless even to die if it meant helping my master."
"It's ridiculous that the bookseller who sold those books was sentenced to ten years."
People can actually laugh out loud when they're speechless.
Nineteen watched Su Wanxing's retreating figure. She had been away from her hometown and in Huangcheng for more than half a year. She had spent all her savings on Huizhi. Sometimes Nineteen felt that even though Su Wanxing was by his side every night, he could never hold onto her.
Nineteen involuntarily hugged Su Wanxing, showering her with kisses from behind, and Su Wanxing tilted her head back in response.
"nineteen"
"Master, you won't leave Nineteen, right?"
"Yes, nothing can separate us except death."
Nineteen covered Su Wanxing's mouth.
"Nineteen doesn't want his master to die. Even if Nineteen is arrested, he'll only get ten years at most. He'll never betray his master. During these ten years, his master can find other men, but as long as I get out, his master must come back to me."
Su Wanxing couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Nineteen is actually so understanding?"
"However, as long as Nineteen is by Master's side, Master is not allowed to go to other men."
"Why? Can't I marry several?"
"My master said there will only be one nineteen in this lifetime!"
When did I say that?
"The owner says this every night."
"That's because you forced me to say it. You wouldn't move if I didn't."
"Hmph, anyway, Master said so."
"Fine, I'll talk even if you don't move, I'll talk even if you can't take it anymore."
"Nineteen won't be a failure."
Nineteen fell into a deep sleep in his arms, but Su Wanxing suffered from insomnia.
How can ordinary people possibly fight back? The hype can fade, and in this era, there are no short videos or other platforms to maintain the buzz. Even if there were, all those posts would be useless. But given her lack of power and influence, she can't even get close to a regular official, let alone the Empress. Even if she were to meet the Empress in her lifetime, would the law really change because of her? An ant fighting an elephant? Interesting. Don't laugh, no one can get past the second hurdle.
Su Wanxing shook her head.
What am I even thinking? I should have read more books when I was in school, instead of always hiding romance novels in my books to read secretly. I really want to get a new brain, one filled with knowledge from five thousand years of history. What about my old brain? Of course, I'd put it in…
Why was she chosen to challenge this dungeon? What an clueless idiot! But why did I end up here? A car accident? That can't be right. I always walk with the crowd, why was I the only one hit? Was she chosen by Nakime to fall? Interesting. She definitely was chosen, this stupid Pillar.
Su Wanxing stroked the nineteen-year-old in her arms.
I'm better suited to having a harem. If only I could transmigrate into the body of the Phoenix, I could do whatever I want.
Su Wanxing drifted off to sleep amidst her wandering thoughts.
"Princess, this is a book sent by the Second Princess."
"Let me see it quickly."
"The Second Princess noticed that the Phoenix Prince has been reading a lot of books lately, so she specially sent these over."
Yan Heng immediately opened the book and started reading, spending more than ten days in a row.
"Yun Song, these books are really quite good."
"Phoenix, I'm glad you like it."
"Come and take a look too."
"Your Highness is too kind. Although Yun Song usually enjoys calligraphy and painting, how could he possibly understand the books that the Second Princess sent him?"
"No wonder my sister is so amazing; she can stand shoulder to shoulder with Sister Yuan all by herself."
"Yes, although the Second Princess comes from a humble background, her knowledge and talent are exceptional. I heard that if she hadn't angered the Phoenix Emperor three years ago, she would have been made the Phoenix Princess long ago."
"Look at this book. It emphasizes self-discipline, reverence, the pursuit of benevolence, sincerity, and that ambition determines one's character. A virtuous person should have the world in their heart, rather than be preoccupied with personal honor or disgrace. Regardless of age or the difficulty of the task, perseverance leads to gradual improvement. One should use both firmness and gentleness, without neglecting either."
"It seems that Huangzi is reading very diligently."
"Yes, after reading these books, I feel I understand my sister better. Although I am a man, she is still on good terms with me. There is no rivalry between us. But I think that even if we were both princesses, she would treat me the same way."
"Yes, the Second Princess treats even the servants equally. If she were to ascend the throne one day, it would surely be a blessing for the people."
"By the way, isn't Father's birthday coming up soon?"
"Yes, Your Highness, what kind of gift are you preparing this year?"
"Dad loves gardening, what do you think we should give him as a gift this year?"
"Phoenix, forgive my bluntness, but the gifts you usually send are never appreciated. This year, I'll just pick one at random."
"How can that be? I'm his own son, of course I have to choose carefully."
"But it's obvious he prefers the princess, and besides, Princess Wei Zi has long been on good terms with Princess Yuan, while you're on Princess Lu's side."
"No matter what happens between me and Sister Wei Zi, he will always be my father."
