Xiang Nan immediately flipped through the book.

To be honest, after reading this book after many years, he gained a lot more insights.

Especially with Ji Xiaolan's talent and experience, he can better understand the world and human feelings in the book, and can better appreciate the subtleties of "A Dream of Red Mansions".

"Sir, how is this book written?" Du Xiaoyue asked with a smile when she saw that Xiang Nan was fascinated by the book.

"This book is extremely well written." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded. "It can be called the most amazing book in ancient and modern times!"

"That's great. Sir, please tell me about it." Du Xiaoyue quickly urged after hearing this.

"Hey, you can't read or listen to this book!" Xiang Nan waved his hand.

"Why is this?" Du Xiaoyue was stunned, then frowned, "Sir, this can't be that kind of bad book!"

Although she usually didn't like reading, she had heard of books that were obscene, evil, dirty and shameless.

"Where are you thinking, sir? How could I be that kind of person?" Xiang Nan said solemnly, "The reason why I don't let you read this book is because I know it is an anti-book.

Recently, Fukang'an is investigating the case closely. Anyone who possesses, reads, circulates, copies, engraves, prints, sells or sells "Dream of Red Mansions" will be put in jail.

Many bookshop owners have been arrested for copying and copying, so I don’t want you to be implicated."

"Ah, no way?! It's just reading a book. How can it be such a big sin?" Du Xiaoyue asked in surprise.

"It sounds unreasonable, but this is the practice of this dynasty." Xiang Nan sighed, "Literary prisons are booming in this dynasty. Just one poem or article will be copied and executed.

The reason why the fourth girl stabbed the king to death was because her father was killed in the Literary Prison and her mother hanged herself, resulting in the loss of the family and her family. That’s why she had so much hatred for the emperor."

"So that's how it is. It's so terrifying." Du Xiaoyue said in surprise, "In this case, sir, that person sent this book to you, didn't he just want to harm you?"

"Who came to deliver the book?" Xiang Nan asked, "Whose name is it and where does he live?"

Du Xiaoyue then recounted the story of how she met Xiangyun and how Xiangyun delivered the letter, "Oh, I understand now. No wonder the officers and soldiers wanted to chase her. It turned out to be because she secretly kept the anti-letter."

"Well, you're not that stupid." Xiang Nan nodded.

"Humph, she is so hateful! I saved her with good intentions, but she actually repaid me with kindness!" Du Xiaoyue said angrily, "Next time I see her again, I will definitely not be able to spare her."

"Okay, don't be angry. Get the brazier~" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Bring her painting by the way."

Du Xiaoyue nodded, and then took out the brazier and paintings.

Xiang Nan then put the manuscript on a candle, ignited it, threw it into the brazier, and burned it completely.

He knew that these manuscripts and paintings were copied by Xiangyun himself, and were not original manuscripts, so they were not important. Leaving them in the thatched cottage would be a source of disaster, so it would be better to burn them with fire.

"By the way, sir, she said she lives in Huangye Village, Xiangshan. Why don't we go catch her tomorrow." Du Xiaoyue looked at the harmful books and burned them up, and she suddenly felt comfortable and said, "Ask her face to face.

Know clearly why she wants to harm you!"

"Hey, since she meant to harm me, how could she tell you her real address?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "According to my estimation, that is either a fake address or a trap."

"That makes sense." Du Xiaoyue nodded.

…

After turning around, Xiang Nan continued to go to Siku Hall to repair books.

He is writing "Ge Wu" these days, which is to introduce the basic knowledge of physics, such as mechanics, optics, magnetism, thermal science, etc.

Although Xiang Nan knew that he would leave this world after completing his mission. And he didn't know whether this world would continue to run.

But he still wanted to do his part to leave a little more knowledge to the world and this country. Maybe by learning his knowledge, future generations can broaden their horizons, pioneer and innovate, and make achievements in the field of science and technology. Maybe they can avoid Hundreds of years of humiliation.

No matter how bad it is, when these ancient books are compiled in the future, future generations will know that as early as the 18th century, the Chinese had already achieved world-leading achievements in many fields such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, biology, etc. That is also a glory.

…

While Xiang Nan was writing a book in Siku Hall, Du Xiaoyue came to Huangye Village in Xiangshan.

She wanted to see what kind of trap that Xiangyun had set here.

After she arrived at Huangye Village, she quickly found Xiangyun's residence by asking the woodcutter.

However, she did not break in immediately. Instead, she flew up to the big tree next to the house, looked down from a high position, and inquired about what was going on in the yard.

And when she saw it like this, she was startled.

Then she saw groups of officers and soldiers ambushing in the yards in front and behind Xiangyun's house, and the person leading them, she could see clearly, was none other than Fu Kang'an.

"What a danger! Fortunately, sir, you are smart and saw through their conspiracy in time. Otherwise, if you came to Xiangshan rashly, you would have fallen into a trap." Du Xiaoyue said fearfully, and then jumped down from the tree and fled the place quickly.

…

In the evening, Xiang Nan returned home.

Du Xiaoyue told Xiang Nan what she saw in Xiangshan.

"Mr. Ji, fortunately you were smart and saw through their conspiracy in time. Otherwise, you would have been caught by Fukangan." She said happily for a while.

Xiang Nan nodded, "So Xiaoyue, remember, be more careful in everything you do in the future. I always go against He Shen and Fukang An in the government, and they will do anything to get rid of me." , always trying to dig a hole for me.

You are the person next to me. If they can't defeat me, they might start with you, so you must be careful."

"Yes, sir. This time it was Xiaoyue who was careless and almost harmed sir." Xiaoyue nodded.

…

At the same time, Hefu.

Fukang'an was also complaining to He Shen, "Sir, I and my people stayed in Huangye Village for a day, but Ji Xiaolan didn't take the bait. Has he already received the news?"

"It's hard to say. Ji Xiaolan is extremely smart and has always been cautious. I didn't expect him to be fooled at all." He Shen said, waving his hands.

"Then what should we do? Is this chess game all in vain?" Fukang'an said angrily when he heard this.

He finally found a way to deal with Xiang Nan, but the other party actually refused to take the bait, which really made him angry!

"Brother, don't worry, this game of chess has just started, and we still don't know who will win and who will lose." He Shen waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Master He, do you have any suggestions?" Fu Kang'an heard this and quickly asked for advice.

"Ji Xiaolan is known as a romantic talent, and she loves books as much as her life. If Xiangyun comes to ask for help, based on her beauty, her identity as Cao Xueqin's dying maid, and the entire copy of "A Dream of Red Mansions" in her hand, Ji Xiaolan will definitely be fooled. ." He Shen pointed.
