What's more, he doesn't want to pay it back.
So, he hesitated for a while and couldn't make up his mind, so he had to take the bag of money and go home.
After he returned, his wife saw a black bag in his hand and asked curiously: "What do you have in your hand?"
He secretly closed the door tightly, put the money and books on the table, and told his wife his magical experience.
After hearing this, his wife angrily gave him a big-eared melon seed.
"You coward! If you have money, don't give up. Are you a fool? Isn't it just selling books? Even if you are caught by then, you are not the one who wrote this book, and you will not be blamed. What do you have? So scared?"
"Besides, we are all good citizens, and we don't really want to rebel. We just want to make some money and make our lives better."
After listening to this, the young man felt that what his wife said made some sense.
But there was still a little hesitation in his heart. When he came back to his senses, he saw that his wife had poured all the money out of the black bag and was counting the total amount happily.
"Hey, what is this?"
The couple took a closer look and saw a small note at the bottom of the bag.
The young man blinked, unsure whether the small note was originally inside.
"Maybe that person put it in, right? But he didn't tell me there was a note inside."
While he was talking, his wife had already opened the note.
In just one second, his wife's face turned pale and her forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"What’s wrong with you?"
He grabbed the note and saw it read: If you don't do what I say, I guarantee you will die miserably.
This time it was great, he had to do it even if he wanted to, and he had to do it even if he didn't want to.
The next day, he went to print more than a dozen books, but he didn't dare to print many. Then he dressed himself very tightly, wearing a hat to cover his face.
I found a relatively remote alley and started selling books while sitting there.
Because selling books required beheading, he didn't dare to shout, so he just sat there quietly, as if on pins and needles.
It probably only took four or five days to sell.
Until a soldier came to buy a book. Because he was wearing casual clothes, he thought the other person was an ordinary citizen and handed the book to him.
Then he entered the prison.
Zhuge Liang frowned slightly, and based on the young man's story, he calculated the time.
The day the masked man came to find him was the day before the writers came to find Xiang Kunlun.
Is there such a coincidence in this world
Zhuge Liang wondered if those who wrote the book had tampered with it, and then denied his guess.
Because other people in the prison also said that the person who found them at that time was a masked man.
At that time, they in Ningxia did not cover their faces. It was unreasonable for them to cover their faces after their appearance was exposed.
Isn't this unnecessary
But then he thought again, it might have been done by the accomplices of the writers who were not present, or they might have been wearing human skin masks at the time.
In short, everything is possible, and Ningxia and the others are still very suspicious.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang was going to find Xiang Kunlun and ask him to temporarily arrest those who wrote the book.
When the people in the prison saw that Zhuge Liang was about to leave, they began to beg desperately for mercy.
Zhuge Liang couldn't bear it, and finally told them: "The punishment is still to be determined, but at least we won't kill them all."
After saying this, Zhuge Liang turned and left.
He found Xiang Kunlun and told him his guess, but Xiang Kunlun laughed out loud.
"Kong Ming, I suddenly feel that you should write mystery novels or open a detective agency to help people solve crimes. I estimate that the income will be very good."
Zhuge Liang couldn't laugh or cry: "The emperor is making fun of Kong Ming."
"No, I am serious. If you have this idea, I will definitely support you."
Zhuge Liang clearly felt that Xiang Kunlun was deliberately changing the subject elsewhere. Although he was a little helpless, he still insisted on talking.
"Your Majesty, Kong Ming always believes that this matter should be treated with caution."
Xiang Kunlun patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder: "No need to worry anymore, just let them go."
"Kong Ming doesn't understand, why?"
Xiang Kunlun smiled slightly and told Zhuge Liang that when an empire is replaced, no matter how well the ruler does, there will naturally be dissatisfaction.
It's like, no matter what a person does, some people will hate him for no reason, and they will be looked down upon.
In current terms, you are not RMB. You cannot be liked by everyone. There is no need. Just be yourself.
"Kong Ming, you have to remember, if you care about everyone who tells you what to do, how can you end it all?"
Zhuge Liang suddenly understood: "Kong Ming admires the emperor's broad mind."
In the court hall, after Xiang Kunlun finished speaking his thoughts, everyone fell to the ground in admiration and immediately knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty understands the great righteousness, and I am admired by all my ministers!"
At the same time, those people who accidentally bought this book were very angry when they went back to read it.
The most angry person is a young man named Li Er.
He can be said to be very pious, because he knew what Xiang Kunlun had done, so after buying the book, he did not read it, but directly put it on the table and offered it to him.
Later, I heard from others that someone was selling that kind of nonsense book, but I didn’t take it seriously.
Until someone reminded him, it would be better for him to go back and take a look. It is always right to be cautious.
If you buy the wrong one, you could easily get yourself killed.
After Li Er went back, he picked up the book. As soon as he read the first glance, he tore up the whole book in anger.
"I was so angry! I said why have I been so unlucky these days? It turns out that I gave the wrong book. God must be punishing me."
He walked out angrily and happened to meet a few people who also bought the wrong book.
It's just that they didn't donate the book like him, but discovered it at that time.
They spontaneously went to the streets to search, and once they found someone selling such books, they immediately went to the Yamen to report it.
The prison was very busy now, and many people were arrested every day.
Xiang Kunlun also felt that this was not going to work, so he asked Zhuge Liang to write a notice.
It was written specifically for the masked man.
In the dead of night, a figure stood quietly in front of the imperial list for a long, long time.
Then a gust of wind blew by, completely disappearing into the darkness.
