"Miss Kou?" Seeing that Xin You was silent, the palace attendant urged her.

Xin You settled down and said apologetically, "The last time I saw Mr. Song Ling, Mr. Song Ling said that he was leaving Beijing."

When the palace attendant heard that Mr. Song Ling was not in the capital, he looked at Xin You with scrutiny in his eyes: "The words written by Mr. Song Ling are sought after by thousands of people, with both fame and fortune, why did you leave the capital?"

Xinyou's tone was light: "I'm not sure about that. Our bookstore has a cooperative relationship with Mr. Songling, and we won't interfere with Mr. Songling's personal affairs."

The servants of the palace had no choice but to go back and report so.

Not seeing Mr. Songling, King Qing's mood suddenly changed a lot.

I can't see a little writer, so why do all kinds of things go wrong when he gets in touch with Miss Kou?

Prince Qing suppressed his irritability for the time being, and spent the next few days running between banquets, and finally went to Qingsong Bookstore after being busy.

At this time, Qingsong Bookstore had just opened, Liu Zhou and Shitou were arranging the bookshelves, shopkeeper Hu was sitting leisurely looking through the books, and jumped up when he saw King Qing coming in.

"Xiaomin—"

King Qing waved his hand to stop Shopkeeper Hu from saluting: "Is Miss Kou there?"

Today he was wearing a brocade robe that did not reveal his identity, with a casual look.

Shopkeeper Hu didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly sent Shitou to invite Xin You to the back.

"Minnv met His Royal Highness King Qing."

At this time, no guests had come to the door, so King Qing took a look at the book hall full of books, and asked, "Miss Kou, can you take Xiao Wang to the book printing shop?"

"There are so many people in the printing workshop. If His Royal Highness Prince Qing is alarmed, the daughters of the people will die."

King Qing's face turned cold: "Xiao Wang is not a piece of paper. It's fine to go to the disaster area in Dingbei. How about going to a book printing house?"

Xinyou's eyebrows moved slightly.

It's okay to take King Qing to see the book printing house. She declined just now, which was also a temptation.

King Qing really didn't come well.

"Then His Royal Highness King Qing, come with the girls." Xin You bowed and led the way.

King Qing followed with two guards.

The book printing workshop of Qingsong Book Company is much bigger than King Qing thought, and even in the early morning there are many people working on it.

These craftsmen greeted Xinyou one after another, and looked at King Qing curiously.

King Qing frowned.

He came here because of Mr. Song Ling, and he wasn't really interested in printing books.

After walking around, King Qing stopped: "A few days ago, Xiao Wang wanted to see Mr. Songling, but it was a pity. I came here today to ask Miss Kou, where Mr. Songling has gone and when will he return to Beijing."

"Minnv doesn't know..." Xin You still said the same words.

King Qing sneered: "Miss Kou is a three-year-old child, can I be my king?"

Xinyou looked puzzled.

King Qing stretched out his hand and pointed: "The prosperity of your bookstore is all due to the books written by Mr. Song Ling. Then there are still ten and eight volumes of "Journey to the West". Can you easily let Mr. Ling go?"

Faced with King Qing's questioning, Xin You was very calm: "Mr. Songling's new book is indeed indispensable in the small shop. Fortunately, Mr. Songling was considerate and gave all the follow-up manuscripts of "Journey to the West" to Minnv before leaving."

King Qing was stunned: "You mean, all the manuscripts of Journey to the West?"

"Yes, there are eight more volumes to follow. The shop plans to release one volume every one or two months, so you don't have to worry about new books within two years."

King Qing took a deep look at Xin You, and chuckled lightly: "After reading the second volume of "Journey to the West", Xiao Wang really wants to know what happened next. I wonder if I can borrow the manuscript to read?"

Borrow a manuscript?
Facing King Qing's unpredictable eyes, Xin You smiled quickly: "It's the honor of Xiaodian that His Royal Highness Prince Qing likes Journey to the West. Xiaolian——"

"The servant girl is here."

"Go to my study and get the manuscript of Journey to the West."

Xiao Lian hesitated for a moment, then bowed her head and said, "Yes."

King Qing watched the maid named Xiaolian walk away quickly, his eyes darkened.

How important this manuscript is to a bookstore if it has not been sold, he made this request and was already prepared to be rejected.

If you are rejected, you can make use of the problem.

But Miss Kou agreed without hesitation, which made him unable to attack.

Thinking about the same thing when he came to Qingsong Bookstore for the first time, King Qing took a deep look at Xin You.

This girl is really flexible, sleek and shrewd, not like a teenage girl at all.

"Girl, the manuscript is here." Not long after, Xiao Lian returned with a box in her hand.

Xin You took it over: "His Royal Highness, this is the manuscript of Journey to the West."

A guard stepped forward to take the box and opened it directly, only to see a pile of manuscripts stacked inside.Another guard picked up the manuscript one by one to check it before presenting it to King Qing.

Xin You watched calmly, reminding herself once again not to be impatient with King Shangqing.

This Prince Qing seemed to be easygoing, but in fact he cherished his life very much.

King Qing didn't pick it up. He glanced at the manuscript and smiled: "Mr. Song Ling's handwriting is good, and he must be a romantic character. It's a pity that we didn't have the chance to meet him."

Xin You smiled: "Mr. Songling said he would come back, His Highness King Qing will definitely see you."

"I'm bothering Miss Kou today." After failing to find fault, King Qing was too lazy to stay any longer, and left with the manuscript Shi Shiran.

When the chariots and horses of King Qing and his party were completely gone, Xiao Lian was very worried: "Girl, what if those manuscripts fall into King Qing's hands, what if they leak out?"

Let other bookstores get it, but make a wedding dress for others, and Qingsong Bookstore will suffer heavy losses.

Xinyou stared down at the ground.

From the gaps in the green bricks, small grasses emerged, tender and slender, the color of early spring.

"If you really want to reveal it, just reveal it, it doesn't matter."

Xiao Lian was very unwilling: "But——"

"We are not short of money, so there is no need to offend the prince." After Xin You finished speaking, she turned and walked inward.

Xiao Lian bit her lip and silently followed.

The girl is right, but thinking of the hard work of writing books at the desk and the trouble of running the bookstore, I am really unconvinced.

Your Majesty, why are you doing this!

When Xin You returned to the east courtyard, she went into the study and came out after a long time.

After King Qing returned home, he read the manuscript and was addicted to it.

He doesn't like Miss Kou, but "Journey to the West" is really good.

King Qing stayed up for two nights and finally finished watching.

"Cousin, what's wrong with you?" Dai Ze who came to play with King Qing asked in shock.

"I—" King Qing paused, looked at his curious cousin, and had an idea.

If the unpublished manuscript of "Journey to the West" is released, it will be a devastating blow to Qingsong Bookstore, and it will also reveal the bad breath he made at his aunt's birthday banquet.

However, if the manuscript is leaked from Prince Qing's Mansion, it will be bad if someone brings it up in the future.But Daize is different, his cousin is lawless, and it is not unusual for him to do anything.

Dai Ze knew that he had the manuscript of "Journey to the West" and would definitely ask for it, but this kid couldn't keep it a secret, so it was only natural for him to spread it after he left.

King Qing yawned, looking troubled: "I watched Journey to the West."

"A copy of "Journey to the West" is not enough, and the pages are not many."

King Qing glanced at Dai Ze: "One book is not many, what if ten books?"
