"eight."

"Nine."

"ten."

Every time the board falls, counting sounds.

Xiao Da was completely dead, and he even felt unrealistic.

who is he?

Where is he?

What is he doing?

In just one cup of tea, it is even harder to endure than in the pirate's nest.

Pain is second to him, and the embarrassment of being watched brings him double the humiliation.

The numbers they read were like a knife, inserted hard into him, and pulled them out and inserted them repeatedly.

It seems like lingchi.

“Twenty-three.”

“Twenty-four.”

“Twenty-five.”

His buttocks were already bleeding, and the pain made his mind clearer.

Why did he fall to this point?

Aren’t there just a few scholars? Why did they make trouble in front of the emperor?

But the emperor did not leave him any face.

By the way, it was the emperor's attitude that led to all this.

When did he lose his favor?

“Forty-seven.”

“Forty-eight.”

“Forty-nine.”

Okay, Xiao Da clenched his fists. The humiliation is finally over.

The last stick fell—

“Forty-eight.”

These young men actually started counting down tacitly.

Xiao Da was stunned. He was a little confused by the beating and did not react for a moment.

Even the eunuchs who were executing the execution were used to them counting and raised the board again.

Fortunately, Hu En reacted, laughed, and ordered the eunuch who was executing the execution: "Okay, the fifty rods have been beaten, so help General Xiao to put the medicine on."

"yes."

Xiao Da was helped into Zhengyang Gate. After watching the lively students, the students dispersed in joy.

The people who came to join in the fun were also very satisfied.

It is a perfect ending for good people to seek justice and for evil people to receive punishment!

On the other side, Chi Yun and Yu Min made an appointment to have tea.

Businessman Liu San came upstairs happily and saluted them.

"I've met two ladies."

Chi Yun smiled and nodded back her greeting, stretched out her hand: "Master Liu San, please sit down."

Liu San responded respectfully and sat carefully to the farthest position.

Five months ago, he was so down and almost went bankrupt that he never thought that such a day would happen.

The business of the bookstore is getting better and better. The incense shop is just open and the guest is like a cloud. Now, when people go out, they will be called "Third Master".

Liu San knew very well that being able to do today is certainly because he had a good management position, but the backer behind him is indispensable.

This is the capital! There are more people in the world who can do business. How many can create an industry in the capital?

"This is Jin Qiju's account book, please check it out."

Jin Qiju is the incense shop he and Chi Yun opened together.

The Taoist nun in Chaofang Palace is good at serving flowers and plants, and can also make fragrant dew.

Chi Yun improved the recipe and asked them to make fragrant balls and fragrant dew, and put them in Jinqiuju to sell.

Chaofang Palace is a royal palace, and you are not afraid of prescriptions leaking.

The Taoist nuns have money to make, and even the lowest-level tyrants will not be bullied like Qingyu Hanyu before, and they will not even be able to eat enough.

For this reason, Chi Yun won the hearts of the people again.

The incense and oil money in the temple cannot be affected by the Taoist nuns. Anyway, making incense is also a practice. Wouldn’t it be a joy to exchange for a few silver coins? Unlike before, only the direct descendants of the abbot can get benefits.

Chi Yun didn't look at the account book, but said, "Just tell He Lu about the matter on the book. If you have any questions about the goods, go to Yiyun."

Liu San said yes.

"I'm asking you to come this time for another thing."

"Miss, please tell me."

Chi Yun asked: "You have heard of General Xiao's punishment for Zhengyangmen?"

Liu San nodded. Is there anyone in the capital who doesn’t know about this? Now someone downstairs is talking about it!

"We have been sitting here and I have heard this all the time, which shows that the people like it. If we publish a booklet specifically telling the latest news now, it will definitely be very popular."

Liu Sanruo thought about something.

"The court has a palace newspaper, which specializes in copying and making memorials, but that is for the officials to see, and ordinary people are not interested in those. We can imitate the palace newspaper, publish a newspaper, and write about the things they are interested in. Every few days, the whole capital will be distributed."

Liu San's eyes lit up.

The business of the bookstore is good, but it takes a lot of effort. Although the new style of the Yu brothers and sisters is very popular, other families will learn it too! Even if it is a little worse, the market will be divided.

Besides, there is also the problem of piracy, so there is no way out of the capital, so I can only keep pushing for innovation.

The newspaper Chi Yun mentioned just made up for the shortcomings of the storybook. If done well, it can become an indispensable pastime for the people in the capital.

The two discussed some details, and Liu San left with satisfaction.

Yu Min looked at her enviously: "Sister Chi, why are you so smart? Just thinking about it is just an idea."

Chi Yun smiled and said, "You are very smart too! The story is so well written. That Phoenix Word has become popular in the capital. Recently, I have been a guest. Have you heard the little sisters mention it?"

Yu Min smiled a little proud and embarrassedly.

"It's a pity that I can't say it was written by me."

"It's okay, I can't hold it in, so I can come and tell me."

The two were talking, but they heard footsteps coming from the other side of the stairs.

"Brother, I'll just come out to play once!" This was the voice of Mr. Yu Er.

"You're talking once? It's been several days in a row, right?" Master Yu also came.

Yu Muzhi said: "I can't do if I don't come out! They all went to Zhengyangmen. I want to hide and ignore it. I will definitely not be able to go there in the future."

"Come on, do you dare to say that you don't want to join in the fun?" Yu Shenzhi exposed him mercilessly.

Yu Muzhi was justified: "It's okay for me to join in the fun. If you see unfairness on the road, help me! Don't think I don't know. You encouraged Cousin Yuan. You are only allowed to set fire and not let me light the light?"

"Oh, you can also fight against the generals. You are so capable!"

The two brothers were fighting while going upstairs.

When he sat down, Yu Muzhi was still angry.

Chi Yun poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Young Master Yu is right, I support you in this matter!"

Yu Muzhi immediately turned anger and had a drink with her: "You'll justify me."

Yu Shenzhi glanced at her: "What's the use of your support? You are not from our family."

Chi Yun was meaningful: "Young Master Yu, you are taking advantage of me!"

"Ph!" Yu Shenzhi spat and explained, "I'll scold myself."

Yu Muzhi laughed and was in a happy mood.

Every time my elder brother meets Miss Chi, he has to admit defeat. Thinking about this, if he really becomes his own family, it seems to be better for him!

However, she was originally her fiancée, so wouldn’t it be embarrassing if she discussed marriage with her elder brother?

Mr. Yu was in conflict and thought about the definition of cuckold...

Chi Yun asked: "There is no follow-up trouble, right? Prince Yuan's side..."

Yu Shenzhi said: "It's okay, the Yuan family is about to have a child, and my cousin is happy! At most, I will be scolded, but I won't lose my flesh anyway."

Chi Yun smiled: "I'll go see Sister Ji in two days."

In the end, I caused trouble for Mr. Yuan, although I deliberately cheated him on the side...
