Seeing Xin You's cold attitude, Deputy Commander Han waved his hand bluntly: "Go and take out the boards of "Painted Skin", and don't leave any of them behind!"

"Yes." All the officials took orders and left.

On the other side of the book printing shop, Guanshi Zhao reluctantly opened the door of the warehouse where the book boards of "Painted Skin" were stored, and watched the boxes of book boards being moved out, tears streaming down his face.

These book boards were engraved stroke by stroke under his own eyes, and finally bound into a volume, which became a highly sought-after book of words.

How did it become like this!
"Take it easy, take it easy!" Manager Zhao couldn't help shouting.

"Go aside!" An official servant who thought he was blocking the way elbowed his elbow and walked over with the box in his arms.

Manager Zhao swayed and almost fell, but fortunately he was supported by two craftsmen beside him.

"Is Guanshi Zhao okay?" a craftsman asked.

Another craftsman also cried when he saw the official who left with the box in his arms: "Manager Zhao, our bookstore won't be closed, will it?"

"Don't talk nonsense, there is a boss!" Zhao Guanshi did not give up, and ran after him.

Seeing this, some craftsmen followed silently.

The joy of receiving the bounty yesterday was swept away like a New Year's Eve, and the people in the bookstore felt extremely heavy at this moment.

In front of the bookstore, more and more people watched the excitement, and someone shouted: "Come out, really moved out!"

The officials didn't know how to cherish them. Some officials threw the boxes on the ground, making a loud noise, and the boards in the boxes popped out.

Stone cried out.

Liu Zhou was afraid of causing trouble for the bookstore, so he cursed in his heart.

Shopkeeper Hu's lips trembled, tears streaming down his face.

Xin You looked at the book board on the ground, her eyes turned cold.

Although she opened the bookstore for another purpose, she also put her heart into running it, especially since "Painted Skin" started from scratch, she participated in every step.

Although I had made good mental preparations, I still felt sad and angry when I saw the book boards carved by the craftsmen so hard.

Xin You raised her eyes and looked at Deputy Commander Han: "Preaching and dispelling doubts, and opening one's mind are inseparable from books. Isn't Master Han afraid of retribution for doing this?"

"Retribution?" Deputy Commander Han raised his head and laughed loudly when he heard it, "It's just a book for people's entertainment, Miss Kou is still a sage's book. Retribution? It's a joke!"

He laughed wildly, seeing the terrified expressions of others, and when he realized something was wrong, he felt severe pain.

Countless pairs of eyes watched an officer walking with a box in his arms, and when he was about to reach Deputy Commander Han, his foot slipped, and the box flew out of his hand and hit him, and then slapped heavily on the instep.

Seeing this scene, Xin You felt surprised but not surprised.

It's not surprising because I saw almost the same picture just now, but the one who caused the accident was changed from a craftsman to an official.Unexpectedly, it was because there was an official servant who was as slippery as a craftsman when he changed the official post to carry the boxes.

It can only be said that this person is doomed.

Deputy Commander Han's screams soared into the sky, causing the crowd to commotion.

"What's the matter, what's the matter?" the short man who was pushed to the back asked anxiously.

"An official slipped his foot and threw the box out, which just hit the official's foot."

"Tsk tsk, isn't that a bad hit?"

"Yes, those boxes look quite heavy."

"Hey, do you remember what Miss Kou said just now? Is there really retribution for ruining books?"

For the people watching the excitement, the official's injury is completely indifferent, and the focus of the injury is better, but if there is retribution for ruining the book, they have to pay attention to it.

So, "Painted Skin" cannot be burned!
"My lord, are you alright?" Several officials gathered around.

The official servant who knew he had caused trouble was dumbfounded and plopped down on his knees: "My lord, the little one didn't do it on purpose..."

Deputy Commander Han tried his best to control the urge to scream. He leaned on one of his subordinates and stared down at the foot that was hit.

He was wearing cloth boots with white soles and black sides, the uppers of which were not yet visible, and the white soles had been stained red by the oozing blood.

Deputy Commander Han had bulging veins on his forehead, his expression was distorted by the overwhelming pain, and he roared, "Smash all these boards!"

As soon as these words came out, all the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, but no one responded for a while.

Of course, they didn't disobey their orders, but they listened to the comments about retribution from the spectators, and they inevitably hesitated.

Shouldn't there really be retribution?
Seeing his subordinates not moving, Deputy Commander Han yelled, "Are you all deaf?"

Only then did the officials move.

Xin You looked on blankly, but she was not in a bad mood.

It's nothing more than spending some money to engrave the book board when it's gone. The discussion caused by this accident is a surprise.

Of course, there is also Deputy Commander Han who has suffered a lot, and he can be regarded as an outlet for these books that are about to be destroyed.

"Wait a minute." Came a cold voice.

The crowd stirred.

"It's Jin Linwei!"

A group of Jinlin Guards armed with waist knives walked over with a cold face, and the leader was He Qingxiao, the governor of Jinlin Guards.

On this occasion, his expression was very cold, making his face fairer and his eyes darker. His appearance made the spectators hold their breath.

Xin You looked at the man in red clothes who was approaching, with surprise flashing in his eyes.

He Qingxiao nodded slightly at Xin You, and walked in front of Deputy Commander Han.

"Master He." Deputy Commander Han cupped his hands at He Qingxiao.

Xinyou frowned slightly.

In terms of official position, there is a big gap between the deputy commander of the military and horse department and the governor of Jinlinwei, and in terms of power, it is far behind.But she watched with cold eyes. Deputy Commander Han showed some respect to Mr. He, but not much.

Is it because Deputy Commander Han has another background?
He Qingxiao lowered his eyebrows, scanning the scattered book boards, with regret in his eyes.

Complicated matters between people, but innocent books are affected.

"What is Deputy Commander Han doing?" He Qingxiao asked calmly.

Deputy Commander Han suffered from severe pain in his feet, but he had to restrain his arrogance when facing He Qingxiao, and said with a pale face: "This bookstore sells demon books, which caused panic among the people in the capital, and fires broke out everywhere. Responsibility, so come to hand in the book."

"The demon book?" He Qingxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at the crowd watching, "Those who have bought "Painted Skin", do you think "Painted Skin" is a demon book?"

The person who was swept by those clear eyes hurriedly shouted: "No, how could "Painted Skin" be a demon book!"

"No, no, "Painted Skin" is definitely not a demon book!"

Just kidding, what if "Painted Skin" is said to be a demon book and suffer retribution like this official lord surnamed Han?
After hearing these words, Deputy Commander Han's mouth crooked.

These troublemakers didn't say that before!
Xin You lowered her eyes, and there was a smile in her eyes.

Mr. He must have heard those discussions.

He Qingxiao looked at Deputy Commander Han again: "It seems that Deputy Commander Han misunderstood."

Deputy Commander Han gritted his teeth, lowered his voice and asked, "Master He really wants to intervene in this matter?"
