Wu Wangfu
King Wu was holding a letter and reading it carefully. Luo Ningxin was standing next to him. She had two panda eyes and seemed a little listless.
After a while, King Wu burst into laughter after reading the letter and put it on the table.
"Ningxin, how are you getting along with Fang Zhengyi?"
Luo Ningxin was stunned for a moment, with a conflicted look on her face.
Fang Zhengyi had come here a few times during this period. After all, he couldn't always keep the door closed to visitors.
However, every time he was away from home, Fang Zhengyi would write to her, and she couldn't help but read Fang Zhengyi's letters.
Every time I finish watching it I feel sick and can't sleep for days.
Now, whenever she closed her eyes, she could imagine Fang Zheng pinching his chin, making a greasy expression and saying those disgusting words.
"There's no cow in milk, right? There's no water in crystal..."
Luo Ningxin forced a smile and said reluctantly: "Your Highness, Ningxin and Lord Fang have a good relationship now..."
King Wu ignored her strange expression and said calmly, "That's good... This person will be of great use to me, so I must pay attention to him."
"yes."
While the two were talking, the housekeeper rushed in, and seeing Luo Ningxin was there, he whispered something to King Wu.
King Wu nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I understand. This time I have another task to assign to the fleet."
"Go overseas and find a man named Galileo for me. He is well versed in astronomy and geography and must not be mistaken!"
The butler was stunned, his expression seemed a little unnatural, and hesitantly said: "Your Highness, the Galileo you are talking about is... the Galileo in the recent three-court trial in the city..."
"good."
The housekeeper looked even more confused: "But... isn't that what's in the play...?"
"Hmm... things mentioned in the play may not be completely groundless. Let's make arrangements."
The butler didn't say much and left in confusion.
Luo Ningxin also became excited after hearing this. She had heard others talk about this play in the Cangxiang Pavilion...something about the overseas barbarian Galileo seeing a big hole in the moon, and Maria killing people with her iron ball. She didn't expect that the prince would actually believe in this stuff.
After hesitating for a while, he finally asked, "Your Majesty, are the people and events in the play real?"
The King of Wu put his hands behind his back and looked towards the courtyard. There were two pits on the ground in the courtyard.
He slowly said, "Yes, most of the content in the play is true. It is definitely not groundless... I went to watch it myself, and when I came back, I found two iron balls and threw them down from a high place at the same time."
“I didn’t expect that one big and one small could land at the same time.”
"How is that possible!" Luo Ningxin blurted out.
"Oh, people are ignorant. If you just imagine it, of course you will think it is impossible. You will know once you try it. But no one is willing to give it a try."
"And the so-called big pit on the moon is probably true. Those dark spots on the moon might be the pits? I have already ordered people to find the best crystals to rebuild the telescope. Maybe we can see the moon at a glance... Then we will know!"
Luo Ningxin smiled awkwardly: "Shouldn't there be a fairy palace on the moon..."
King Wu sneered, "Foolish! Ghost stories are not worth mentioning. Ghost rumors have always been widespread. I have sent people to investigate. There are more ghosts in the outer city than in the inner city, but fewer people in the outer city than in the inner city."
"This doesn't make sense. If there is only one explanation, it must be that most of the ignorant men and women live in the outer cities and are more willing to believe in these ghost stories, so they are widely spread..."
Then the King of Wu waved his hand and said, "Forget it! You won't understand even if I tell you."
Then he muttered to himself, "It seems that I can only discuss profound things with Fang Zheng. But how does he know about the barbarians overseas... Is there really someone who knows everything?"
Seeing that King Wu did not speak, Luo Ningxin whispered: "Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, Ningxin will take her leave first."
"Wait a minute, Fang Zhengyi and Yan Guoan are currently competing against each other. If Fang Zhengyi needs anything from you, you must fully support him. Do you understand?"
"I understand."
Luo Ningxin blinked, looking a little confused.
Although she said she understood, in fact she didn't quite understand. She now completely didn't understand why the prince admired Fang Zhengyi so much.
I can't even understand the prince.
It feels like a mentally ill person meeting a fellow patient...
"Your Majesty, do you think Fang Zheng will lose in the end?"
King Wu sneered, "Lose? Yan Guoan is not even worthy of carrying Fang Zheng's shoes, what can he use to fight him?"
"Empty talk is detrimental to the country. What can a group of idiots who sit and talk about things accomplish? It is really hard to understand. They have already been to Taoyuan County and still want to propose such a stupid bet."
Luo Ningxin hesitated and said, "Since the prince has already determined that Fang Zhengyi will win, why did he let Ningxin..."
\"Fang Zhengyi doesn't care about Yan Guoan, he cares about Banshanfang!\"
"With his temper, he will use everything he can. Sooner or later, he will need you. When the time comes, just do your best to cooperate. Don't ask for anything else!"
"This person... must be used by me!"
.................
In the government office of Dengjinfang.
Yan Guoan looked gloomily at the group of well-dressed scholars below.
Seeing that everyone was present, he said loudly, "Everyone, you must have heard of the new Banshanfang opera that has been circulating in the district recently."
"This opera corrupts morals and slanders scholars without reason. Now many of my fellow scholars in the district have moved to Banshan District. Everyone, please tell us what countermeasures we can take."
Someone raised his hand and said, "Why don't we arrange a troupe to perform..."
"Forget it! What's the show? Who's going to act it out? We're fighting an unprepared battle against a prepared one. We have to come up with an unexpected strategy to win!"
