Chapter 053 Copying the Book

After Jiuchou sent Shaotang back to Jingshan, he returned to Qianmen Town without stopping to deal with other matters.

When he hurried back and wanted to have dinner with Shaotang, he was sitting alone at the table guarding a table of food, but he waited for the news that Shaotang was busy and would not come to eat.

Zhong Jiuchou rubbed his aching forehead and asked Qin Xiaoyue standing aside: "What is your master doing?"

Qin Xiaoyue lowered her eyebrows and murmured for a long time before saying three words: I don't know.

Zhong Jiuchou glared at her.

There was something quite wrong with this girl today. She used to love reporting Ran Shaotang's whereabouts in front of him, but today she kept silent. There must be something fishy.

In fact, Xiaoyue endured it very hard.

In her eyes, the most handsome man in Jingshan is Zhong Jiuchou, the Lord of Zhongshan. Although she is young, she also likes to look at good-looking people.

For example, the young master, such as Zhong Jiuchou.

The young master is radiant when he smiles.

However, Zhongshan Master has a majestic appearance when he is not smiling, making people dare not look directly at him. Of course, he looks better when he smiles, but it is rare for him to show a smile.

However, comparing the two, she still felt that Zhong Jiuchou was more masculine.

However, after the young master talked to her today, her inner balance seemed to tilt to Ran Shaotang's side. Therefore, she felt that she could not tell others about the young master's whereabouts without his permission.

Neither can Jiuchu.

Since he couldn't get the answer he wanted, Zhong Jiuchou simply went to find Ran Shaotang himself.

Qin Xiaoyue saw that he was walking in a windy manner, showing obvious signs that he was going to lose his temper, so she decisively did not follow him.

Love as much as you like.

When gods fight, she, a little mortal, can't do anything about it.

Just hide. She wants to tell her father that there is no gold in the sky and there is no gold left in it.

Finally, when Jiuchou saw that Ran Shaotang was not in his bedroom, he thought for a moment and went directly to the study.

The night breeze was slightly cool, and the lantern on the corridor swayed slightly, illuminating his shadow as it grew and grew shorter.

He stood in the corridor, looking at Ran Shaotang who was writing furiously in front of the desk through the open window, and suddenly felt that half of his anger had disappeared.

At her age, it's time for her to start reading and writing well.

Although studying medicine is a way out, as a child of a noble family, if you don't study and have no knowledge, you will be ridiculed by the noble class.

I don't know since when did he start worrying about her future?

In his mind, he pictured her pitiful appearance when she jumped from the carriage into his arms, like a frightened little wild cat begging for comfort.

I couldn't help but feel soft in my heart, thinking that the girl who usually showed her teeth and claws at me might not be the real her. Comparing my feelings, if I was threatened by someone, I would always want to fight back like her.

He considered whether to make peace with her and stop taking pleasure in threatening her.

Ran Shaotang drew up a large framework and broke up the contents of "Psychological Contest". The opening chapter is a profound explanation of psychology. People in this era are more or less superstitious and believe in the art of divination.

In order to confuse the fake with the real, she also wrote some of the divination knowledge she learned from her mother into the first chapter of "The Art of Confused Mind".

Based on the current customs, she listed nine major points of suitable things, and explained each point in several small points, and also added some examples of her own experience.

Of course, she didn't write down the most essential part. It was her magic weapon to control Zong Zhengshen, so how could she reveal it to others so easily.

When Shaotang's name was in the boudoir of the first generation, she became famous among the famous ladies in Kyoto.

She has not forgotten to practice calligraphy in this life. When she was in the general's mansion, after practicing martial arts, she had to practice calligraphy. Therefore, she could still get away with transcribing a book.

In order to be realistic and make Zong Zheng Shenxin think that this is an original copy, she deliberately looked up some obscure ancient characters that are not commonly used today, and replaced a few in key places.

The bamboo slips are also old, and most of the bamboo pieces have signs of damage.

An uninformed person will undoubtedly recognize ancient books at a glance.

After Jiuchou stood for a while, he found that Ran Shaotang, who was busy writing on the bamboo slips, didn't even raise his head. He simply put one hand on the window sill, lifted the corner of his robe elegantly with the other hand, and jumped directly into the house.

The sound of the landing was so loud that Ran Shaotang, who was concentrating on it, was so frightened that he almost threw away his pen.

She frowned and looked at the half-written word "ren" on the bamboo slip. The horizontal stroke of the first stroke was actually crooked. This meant that the bamboo slip had been rewritten.

"If you're surnamed Zhong, if you don't leave the door, why would you jump out of the window? Are you a thief?"

The poor and gentle little wild cat that Jiuchou had been waiting for in his heart immediately turned into a big monster with a ferocious face and grinning teeth that wanted to eat people.

At that moment, he really wanted to catch Ran Shaotang who was ruining the atmosphere and beat him up.

Helpless, he rushed to the desk in three or two steps, grabbed the bamboo slips and browsed through them quickly.

Shaotang knew that she was no match for him, so she didn't compete with him at all. She bet that he couldn't understand, so she let him watch.

Shaotang understood that the more nervous he appeared at this time about the bamboo slips, the more interested Jiuchou would be in the end.

Therefore, she simply acted indifferently.

Sure enough, after browsing through it for a while, Jiuchou put down the bamboo slips and began to lecture Ran Shaotang: "The calligraphy is too graceful and lacks the spirit of everyone. You should read more pre-Qin inscriptions. Otherwise, from tomorrow onwards, after practicing martial arts, I will take you here to practice calligraphy.

Something will definitely happen in the future.”

Shaotang’s real thoughts: You should pull him down quickly. You, the second-in-command of a killer organization, want to teach people how to read. Aren’t you afraid of misleading others? Besides, I am busy and have no time.

Shaotang's perfunctory explanation was: "Well, what you said makes sense. However, you are not my master. Aren't you tired of taking care of so many things?"

Finally, Jiuchou picked her up by the scruff of her neck and tried to throw her out of the window like a kitten.

"I am your uncle. Can't I control you?"

The good man Shaotang refused to suffer the immediate loss and begged for mercy loudly: "Okay, I will definitely come to practice calligraphy tomorrow."

Shaotang felt that this guy was really annoying. He took care of everything he shouldn't, even if he shouldn't. He was even weirder than her weird dad.

Zhong Jiuchou didn't take Shaotang's attitude towards him seriously at all, but thought it was good. After all, not many people would still get along with him calmly after learning his true identity.

The subordinates around him are all reserved and unsmiling, and very boring.

Shaotang is still the most interesting.

After hearing her promise to practice calligraphy, Jiuchou finally let her go, picked up the bamboo slips on the table again, read for a while, and suddenly asked: "Which book did you memorize this from? It's so wonderful. Look.

, when people lie, their eyes will uncontrollably look to the upper right to judge the other person's sincerity. Hmm... interesting."

Shaotang secretly rolled his eyes at him.

She had already developed her instinctive reaction in the apocalypse, and when telling lies, she must look at the upper left corner.

Since everyone understands psychology, she did the opposite.

Training hard can achieve unexpected results.

Zhong Jiuchou continued to read, and while reading, he told Shaotang: "This book is very wonderful. Bring me the original copy. I will read it at night by candlelight."

Shaotang: ...There's no need for the slap in the face to come so quickly.

"You can understand?"

"Nonsense? How can you not understand the art of controlling people written in such a simple way? You underestimate your junior uncle's ability too much." Zhong Jiuchou continued to urge without even raising his head, "Where's the original book? Bring it here, I'll take it with you.

Go back and watch."

Shaotang cursed: What you took was the original book, but it was not copied completely.

"It was originally at my house. Do you want to see it? How about we make a deal?"

Shaotang thought happily that he finally had the opportunity to blackmail Zhong Jiuchou and negotiate an equality treaty or something.

When Jiuchou finally heard the words "make a deal", he slowly raised his head, his eyes looking like an abyss.
