Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was bullsh*t that the cooperation was win-win. Even a three-year-old child would not believe this! The clerk thought that his young master would definitely not fall for it.
However, Zheng Changle was already deeply fascinated by the poster.
He had completely forgotten his status as the young master of the Sky Oriole Garden and only said.
“Sell me this poster. For whatever it costs.”
Yu Niaoniao said, “As long as you want it, I can give you the poster.”
Zheng Changle was overjoyed. “Really? That’s great. Thank you!”
Yu Niaoniao said, “But you have to promise me to paste it at the door of the Sky Oriole Garden. As long as you paste it for three days, it’s yours in three days.” Zheng Changle was about to agree when the clerk pulled him hard.
“Young Master, wake up! If you stick this thing at the entrance of our theater, it’s equivalent to sending our guests to their business. When the troupe master finds out later, he won’t let you off!”
Zheng Changle immediately imagined his father chasing after him with a feather duster.
He shivered in fear and immediately woke up.
“No, no, I can’t! My father will beat me to death!”
Yu Niaoniao sighed, very disappointed.
“I also know that I’ll make things difficult for you, but I don’t have any better way now.
My face was injured and I might never be able to communicate normally.”
“I could neither take the imperial examination nor get married and have children. My life is over.”
“Qirui Garden was my last hope.
“I came to you for help because I really had no choice.
Forget it if you’re unwilling.
I’m sorry I caused you trouble.”
“I might not publish books or show my face in front of others in the future.
I’ll give you that poster as a souvenir.
I’ll get going first. Take care.”
With that, she turned around and left in a daze.
Zheng Changle hurriedly stopped her.
“What do you mean? Is Master Wang you?”
Yu Niaoniao said, “It’s already like this. Is it important whether I am Master Wang?”
Actually, Zheng Changle had already suspected that Brother Yu was Master Wang.
But at that time, he had no evidence. He could not ask too much.
NOW tnat Brotner yu nad exposed ms Identity, ms guess was true.
This shocked and delighted Zheng Changle.
He wished he could transform into a screaming chicken and roar on the spot. Ahhh, he had seen his idol! He had even spoken to his idol!
Zheng Changle said excitedly.
“Of course it’s important. If you’re Master Wang, I’ll definitely help you!”
The clerk stomped his feet anxiously. “Young Master, don’t be rash. He’s lying to you. Don’t fall for it!”
Zheng Changle said, “He’s already disfigured. How can he be bluffing?!”
The clerk said, “Even if he’s disfigured, what does it have to do with you?”
Zheng Changle was immediately furious.
“Shut up!”
How could it not be related?
Master Wang at the Village Entrance was his favorite author!
If Master Wang did not publish books in the future, where would he find spiritual food in the future?
How could he live without spiritual food?!
Zheng Changle pushed the clerk away and said loudly to Yu Niaoniao.
“Master Wang, I’ll help you paste the poster at the entrance of the Sky Oriole Garden.But you have to promise me that you won’t give up on yourself. You must pull yourself together. I’m still waiting for your new book!”
Yu Niaoniao was very touched. “Thank you. When I publish a new book later,
I’ll definitely arrange a role for you in it.”
Zheng Changle immediately felt as if he had been injected with chicken blood and was extremely excited.
“Really? Can I appear in your book too?”
Yu Niaoniao said, “It might just be a small role. If you’re unwilling…”
Zheng Changle nodded crazily. “Yes, yes! I’m willing!”
When the book fans gathered later, he would definitely tell the other readers about this and make them die of envy!
Yu Niaoniao raised her right hand. “Then it’s settled.”
Zheng Changle did not understand what she meant. Yu Niaoniao said, “Put your hands up too.”
Zheng Changle obediently raised his hands.
Yu Niaoniao reached out her right hand and gently patted his left.
“This is our agreement.”
Then, Yu Niaoniao left the Sky Oriole Garden with Ling Hai.
Zheng Changle still stood rooted to the ground in a daze, looking in the direction Yu Niaoniao had left.
The clerk was anxious. “You’re not really going to help them pull guests, are you?”
Zheng Changle clenched his left hand. “I’ve decided!”
The clerk was delighted. “You’ve changed your mind? You won’t help them anymore?”
Zheng Changle said, “I won’t wash my hands anymore!” The clerk was speechless. Zheng Changle said, “This was slapped by Master Wang!”
The clerk said nothing.
This young master was hopeless. The troupe master should quickly father another one.
Inside the Justice Department.
Xiao Juan was flipping through the dossiers in the Qianji Building.
He took out all the information about Imperial Concubine Meng and read them one DY one.
Imperial Concubine Meng’s life was quite smooth-sailing. Other than the fact that she had no children, her life could almost be said to be easy. It was also because of this that there was very little information about her.
Xiao Juan searched for a long time but could not find any useful information.
He remembered what Granny Xiu Yan had said and decided to change his line of investigation.
He found the records when Empress Dowager Deng entered the palace back then.
As expected, he saw Imperial Concubine Meng in this record.
Back then, it was difficult for the late emperor to have heirs. Empress Dowager Li was anxious and wanted to help the late emperor expand his harem. She decided to choose women of the right age from the aristocratic families to enter the palace. However, it was not convenient for Empress Dowager Li to leave the palace, so she asked Imperial Concubine Meng to help with the selection.
When Imperial Concubine Meng went to the Deng family, she took a fancy to the Second Miss of the Deng family and brought her into the palace.
After the Second Miss of the Deng family entered the palace, she was conferred the title of Zhaoyi. Two years later, she gave birth to a prince. She was promoted to Concubine Deng. When the prince grew up and inherited the throne, Concubine Deng became the current Empress Dowager Deng.
The reason why Empress Dowager Deng could enter the palace as an imperial concubine was all thanks to Imperial Concubine Meng. No wonder her relationship with Imperial Concubine Meng was very good.
Perhaps Empress Dowager Deng would really know where Imperial Concubine Meng’s jade bracelets went.
Should he ask Empress Dowager Deng?
Just as Xiao Juan was thinking, he suddenly heard Meng Xizhou’s voice outside the door.
“Your Highness, Wei Liao is here.”
Xiao Juan put down the dossier. “What is he doing here?”
“He said he’s here to investigate a case.”
Xiao Juan walked out of the Qianji Building and came to the front yard.
There were several Eagle Guards standing in the courtyard. They surrounded Wei Liao and were on guard.
Wei Liao crossed his arms lazily.
“I told you, I’m here to investigate a case, not fight. You don’t have to be so nervous.”
Xiao Juan looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly, “What case are you investigating?”
The Eagle Guards bowed to him.
Wei Liao said, “Didn’t you bring back a charred corpse previously? I suspect that he’s related to a case I recently investigated. I hope your Justice Department can cooperate and let me examine that charred corpse.”
Xiao Juan asked, “What if I don’t cooperate?”
Wei Liao said, “Don’t be so petty. We’re all working for the emperor. If you help me, it’s equivalent to helping the emperor.”
Xiao Juan said, “If the emperor issues a decree, I’ll definitely do as he says.. May
I ask if you have an imperial edict?”
