"Sir, "A Dream of Red Mansions" is a counter-script, and was approved by the emperor." Du Xiaoyue wondered, "You have no words to say, and you cannot go back on your words. How could you possibly make the emperor change his mind?"

"Nothing is difficult in the world, only those who are willing to do so." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Actually, the emperor has never read "Dream of Red Mansions". The reason why he designated it as an anti-book is entirely because He Shen and Fu Kang'an spread rumors and slander.

The emperor did not pay close attention to it and only listened to what he believed, so he decided that "A Dream of Red Mansions" was a counter-book, and ordered that anyone who hid, read, circulated, copied, engraved, printed, sold, or sold it would be questioned and imprisoned!

In this case, I will let the emperor read this book in person to see if "Dream of Red Mansions" is an anti-book!

If it is truly an anti-book, the emperor has committed the crime of "reading". The emperor has committed the same crime as the common people when the time comes. Let's see how he can excuse himself. If it is not an anti-book, the emperor will vindicate "Dream of Red Mansions" and allow it to be published all over the world.

.”

"Sir, you are really smart!" After hearing this, Du Xiaoyue clapped her hands and laughed.

It's really amazing that Xiang Nan can figure out such a rare thing!

"But sir, if you do this, you are teasing the emperor. Once the thunder gets angry, you will be in danger." Xiangyun is more knowledgeable than Xiaoyue and knows that Xiang Nan's move is like pulling out the beard from a tiger's mouth, which is very dangerous.

"************,************." Xiang Nan said generously, "Ji Xiaolan's life and death are not important. "Dream of Red Mansions", this incredible book, if it is destroyed, banned, and not allowed to be seen by the world,

, is a great misfortune.”

"What a sentence [*******,**********!]" Xiangyun praised, "Mr. Xiangyun admires his character!"

"Okay, don't chat. I will copy "A Dream of Red Mansions" right away and give it to Eunuch Zhang to bring to the emperor." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Madam, you can help me too."

"Okay." Xiangyun nodded.

…

At that moment, the two came to the study room.

Xiang Yun Mo Mo, Xiang Nan's handwriting.

"Mr. Ji's handwriting is really good." Xiangyun praised.

Xiang Nan smiled and nodded.

Ji Xiaolan's calligraphy was learned from Zhao Mengfu and Dong Qichang. He is graceful, vigorous and colorful. He is indeed a good calligrapher. However, he presided over the compilation of "Sikuquanshu" and had greater achievements in the field of literature, so in calligraphy

The reputation is actually slightly inferior.

Just like the poet Li Bai is famous for his poems, but in fact his calligraphy skills are also quite impressive. "Shangyang Tie" only has twenty-five characters. It is vigorous, powerful, elegant, free and smooth, and is first-class.

calligraphy works.

Xiang Nan wrote the story, Xiangyun suggested the plot, and the two of them cooperated tacitly. One day and two nights, they burned ointment and followed the sundial, forgetting to eat or sleep.

Du Xiaoyue couldn't help but feel a little sour when she saw it.

"Sister Xiaoyue, both the husband and the wife are unwilling to come out to eat. Should we bring the food in?" Myolie asked.

Xiang Nan and Xiangyun didn't even bother to eat breakfast or lunch in order to write the manuscript. They were working too hard.

"What [Mr.], [Mrs.], they sound like a couple!" Du Xiaoyue said irritably, "From now on, I'd better call her Xiangyun."

"Yes, Sister Xiaoyue." Xing'er was smart and nodded with a smile, "Actually, there is no need for me to be jealous. Xiangyun is married. She will obey her husband when she gets married. She cannot follow the master."

"You're the only smart little kid!" Upon hearing this, Xiaoyue suddenly brightened up.

…

Xiang Nan and Xiangyun wrote for a day and two nights, and wrote a total of more than 30,000 words, which is the first five chapters of "A Dream of Red Mansions". They then handed it over to Eunuch Zhang and sent it to Qilu.

In the following days, Xiaoyue brought the manuscripts of "A Dream of Red Mansions" from the palace to the thatched cottage one after another, and then Xiang Nan hid them on her body and brought them back to Siku Pavilion.

Using this method of moving ants, the manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions" was hidden in Siku Hall bit by bit.

During this period, He Shen and Fukang'an naturally did not give up. Especially Fukang'an, who was forced to pick hawthorns for half a day that day and lost his face. He hated Xiang Nan even more, so he sent people to check him many times.

.

The devil is as high as one foot, and the Tao is as high as ten feet! Xiang Nan also knew that they would not give up, so he was always on guard against them, fighting wits and courage with Fu Kang'an and He Shen.

Fukang'an failed several times in succession, but never found evidence that Xiang Nan secretly hid "Dream of Red Mansions".

Instead, Xiang Nan seized the opportunity and united with the Qing Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty to write a letter to the emperor, impeaching Fukang'an for pretending to be a public servant and avenging his private interests. He used the opportunity of checking "A Dream of Red Mansions" to wantonly insult the court officials. It was really arrogant, domineering and disgusting.

Because Fukang'an searched Xiang Nan in public many times, but found no solid evidence, the facts were all there, and public opinion was overwhelming. Therefore, Qianlong could no longer protect him and had to order a reprimand, so Fukang'an had to restrain himself a little.

.

…

"Hmph! Ji Xiaolan is so cunning, even the emperor was deceived by him." Fukangan said very unhappy after being reprimanded.

"Brother, don't be angry. I'm sure that the manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions" is in Ji Xiaolan's hands." He Shen waved his hands and said, "The key now is how to find the book."

"I hit the mark with you, sir." Fukangan nodded, "Then have you thought of a solution?"

"Where is that fragrant cloud now?" He Shen suddenly asked.

"Now at Ji Xiaolan's home." Fukangan replied, "Huh, she is a married woman, but she lives with Ji Xiaolan. It is really immoral and offensive. Sir, should we join forces with the courtiers to make a plan to impeach him?

The crime of abducting a married woman."

"Hey, you have just been reprimanded by the emperor, and now you are impeaching him, which is suspected of revenge." Heshen waved his hands and said, "In this way, let Chen Weiyuan come forward to ask for someone. He is Xiangyun's husband, and it is up to him.

Come forward and become famous.

If Ji Xiaolan refuses to let him go, let him file a complaint when the time comes, making it known to everyone and causing an uproar. By then, even if we don't deal with him, the emperor will know everything."

"Sir, you are indeed smart. I will do it right away." Fukangan nodded.

…

Yuewei Thatched Cottage.

"It turns out that the manuscript of the last forty chapters was lost before?" Xiang Nan said with emotion.

He originally wanted to read the manuscripts of the last forty chapters of "A Dream of Red Mansions", but he did not expect that those manuscripts had been lost long ago.

"Yes, before "Dream of Red Mansions" was finished, my husband's friends came to borrow it. It was passed around, and many of them disappeared. My husband wanted to make up for it, but he didn't want to suddenly get seriously ill and pass away." Xiangyun explained,

"After her husband passed away, Mrs. Cao didn't know the value of the manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions" and burned part of it to commemorate her husband, so the manuscript of the last forty chapters is no longer available."

"Oh, it's such a pity." Xiang Nan couldn't help but lamented. I didn't expect that he had already come to the Qing Dynasty, but he still missed the chance to see the complete version of "Dream of Red Mansions". It's really a pity.

"But sir, although I don't know the original text of the last forty chapters of "A Dream of Red Mansions", Mr. Xueqin told me the story of the last forty chapters," Xiangyun said.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Okay, madam, tell me quickly."

Xiangyun was about to tell when Lao Cai walked in and said, "Sir, there is a man named Chen Weiyuan outside the door looking for you."
