Quick Wear: The Law of Salvation of Cannon Fodder

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed. During this time, Xie Qi had been immersed in writing day and night, and finally completed the creation of the first volume.

That day, he joyfully pushed open the door to Chu Ye Ze's bedroom and walked in with brisk steps: "My Lord, are you free today? Can you accompany me out of the palace?"

Chu Ye was slightly stunned and asked doubtfully, "Leaving the palace?"

Xie Qi's face was filled with a bright smile. He quickly handed over the manuscript in his hand and said excitedly, "Look, I've finished it."

Chu Ye was a little bit unbelievable. He didn't expect Xie Qi to actually write it. He took Xie Qi's manuscript hesitantly and read it carefully.

However, after reading one chapter, he discovered a writing style that was completely different from others. Although the article was not long, every word seemed to exude magic, deeply attracting his attention.

Although the entire story was his own personal experience, Chu Ye couldn't help but immerse himself in it. Every plot and every sentence made him eager to know what Xie Qi thought of him.

Because it was Chu Ye Ze's own story, he finished the whole book very quickly. Just when he saw that the little emperor described by Xie Qi was at his most isolated and helpless, the story suddenly ended there.

"Am I so miserable and pitiful in your eyes?"

Chu Ye didn't really feel much about these experiences, but Xie Qi's description made the little emperor's experience seem extremely tragic.

Xie Qi showed an unfathomable expression and said, "My Lord, you don't understand this, do you? This is a marketing tactic. I want you to have a large group of mother fans. The more miserable the story is, the more they will feel sorry for the little emperor. The more they want the little emperor to have a happy ending."

"Mom fan?"

"This... well, how can I explain it? It's not easy to explain." You can't just say it's maternal love. After all, the male protagonist is the emperor now. Who dares to be the emperor's mother?

Chu Ye, seeing Xie Qi's entangled expression, stopped making things difficult for him and instead changed the subject, asking, "Why is there only the first volume? Do you also think I can't win?"

"of course not!"

"Look at the prediction I wrote at the end. The second volume is about your path to counterattack, my lord. Although you haven't experienced it yet, your future path will definitely be smooth and successful."

Chu Ye looked at Xie Qi's serious expression, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart. Maybe as Xie Qi said, everything will be fine?

Afterwards, Chu Ye also agreed to Xie Qi's idea of leaving the palace. But when they actually stepped out of the palace gate, Chu Ye realized that this was the first time he had left the palace since his father passed away.

Chu Ye took off his usual solemn black clothes and put on the clothes that Xie Qi personally picked for him.

After putting on this bright new dress, Chu Ye suddenly became full of energy. Even the guards behind him could not help but sigh that they almost forgot that the current emperor was only eighteen years old and was a young man full of vigor and vitality.

After leaving the palace, Xie Qi went straight to the largest bookstore in the capital without any delay.

Arriving at the door of the bookstore, Xie Qi stopped, turned to look at Chu Ye Ze behind him, and said with a smile: "Master, shall we go in and take a look?"

Chu Ye shook his head and said helplessly: "Once you leave the palace, don't call me master."

"What should we call him then?" Xie Qi blinked and suddenly laughed, "How about A Ze?"

Chu Ye blushed slightly, turned his head away, and said softly, "Call me whatever you want."

Xie Qi smiled even more happily, reached out and held Chu Ye Ze's hand, and strode into the bookstore.

As soon as you step into the bookshop, you are greeted by a rich, bookish aroma. The shelves are filled with a dazzling array of ancient books and new works, leaving you dazzled.

Xie Qi looked around, his sharp eyes noticing the maids and servants frequently coming in and out of the store. He was secretly delighted, knowing that he had found the right place.

This is undoubtedly the place where books are spread most quickly. Chu Ye, who was standing by, also understood Xie Qi's intention. He shook his head helplessly, but still chose to let Xie Qi do what he wanted.

Xie Qi cleared his throat and coughed slightly, successfully attracting the store manager's attention. He leaned lazily against the counter and asked, "Excuse me, sir, do you accept books?"

The store manager raised his head and looked at Xie Qi and the others with scrutiny. He responded calmly, "Booksellers must obey our owner's wishes. Since you are here to sell books, please follow me."

So, the store manager led everyone to the back room. At that moment, Shen Yanyue was sitting leisurely on the couch in the room, holding a thick book in her hands and flipping through it boredly.

"Master, someone is here to sell books."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanyue sat up and looked towards Xie Qi and the others, saying with interest, "I was just worried about not having any books I was interested in reading, and I didn't expect someone to come and sell books."

At this time, Xie Qi also placed the storybook on the table next to Shen Yanyue.

Shen Yanyue carefully looked at the storybook in Xie Qi's hand, and saw the ordinary words "The Emperor's Counterattack" written on the cover.

He was secretly surprised, but he kept a straight face and said, "Sir, you are joking. The emperor is someone you and I can comment on."

"Don't worry, Master. This is a fictional story. It's not about the current emperor, and the Chu State is not mentioned in the story."

Seeing that Shen Yanyue was still hesitating, Xie Qi sighed and said, "Forget it. Since the owner won't accept it, I'll go to other bookstores to have a look. After all... there will always be people interested in the unofficial history of the royal family."

"and many more!"

Shen Yanyue stopped him immediately. He understood that the emperor was already busy with his own affairs, so why would he care about rumors? Besides, the unofficial history of the royal family was indeed quite fascinating.

What's more, the other party said it was fictional, so what was there to be afraid of as a dignified abbot?

After figuring it out, Shen Yanyue smiled and looked at Xie Qi and said, "Sir, you are truly courageous. Throughout history, you are the only one who dares to make fun of the emperor. I just wonder what the content of this book is."

"Since you're curious, why don't you take a look at it yourself? I have plenty of time anyway, so you can leave the book here for now. I'll come back in the evening, and then you can decide whether to accept it. Is that okay?"

Hearing this, Shen Yanyue's eyes flashed, and she responded with a smile: "Aren't you worried that I will turn against you after reading this?"

Xie Qi only raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and replied firmly: "Of course I trust the monk."

Shen Yanyue couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Just based on what you said, sir, I will definitely read this book carefully."

After the two chatted for a while, Xie Qi and the others left the bookstore.

Chu Ye, who had been silent until now, looked at Xie Qi and suddenly spoke, his words calmly revealing a hint of ridicule: "Royal history?"

"...Uh, don't take it too seriously, it's just a marketing ploy! Hahahaha"

In order to change the subject, Xie Qi directly took Chu Ye's hand and walked quickly to another place.

"Aze, there seems to be something fun over there, let's go check it out!"

Ying Zuo's voice came from behind, with a hint of blame: "Xiao Qi! Don't be reckless! Rules!"

Yingyou followed closely behind the two of them: "Sir, please walk slowly."

Xie Qi and his companions shuttled through the bustling market. Behind them, the two guards Ying Zuo and Ying You followed closely, ready to protect Chu Ye Ze at any time.

Perhaps because of Xie Qi's company, Chu Ye gradually forgot all the troubles in the palace, as if he was just a young master from an ordinary family and could fully enjoy this rare free time.

One is an emperor who has lived in the palace for a long time, and the other is a modern person who has never seen an ancient market. For them, everything they see is new and interesting.

However, the two's shopping enthusiasm made Yingzuo, who was following behind, miserable. In a short while, his hands were already piled with various items, and he looked very embarrassed.

However, Yingyou, who only had his sword, felt extremely relieved about this situation. Looking at the master's happy smile, he couldn't help but think of the scene when the late emperor was alive, when the master was also so full of energy.

When they returned to the bookshop, they found the owner sitting on the couch, holding the storybook tightly in his hands, tears streaming down his face from time to time, and muttering the plot and characters in the book.

"Wow, wow, how could the little emperor be so miserable? The regent is such a nobody..."

The abbot choked and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, as if he was the bullied little emperor.

"How could it be gone? It's too short. The Regent is still eyeing it covetously. How could it be gone?"

The monk's voice grew louder and louder, and his emotions became more and more excited. He seemed to be completely immersed in the story, experiencing the suffering and injustice with the little emperor.

When she saw Xie Qi and the others, Shen Yanyue immediately walked up to him and said excitedly, "Sir, our bookshop wants this book! I wonder when the second volume will be published?"

Shen Yanyue looked at Xie Qi with shining eyes, determined to get the book. He couldn't wait to see how the young emperor would rise from adversity and become a wise ruler.

In order to prevent Xie Qi from not cooperating with him in the future, Shen Yanyue said directly: "Don't worry, sir, the price will satisfy you."

Xie Qi simply said calmly, "I naturally believe that the owner of the shop won't lie to me. As for whether we should cooperate on the next volume, that depends on this book and whether your shop has the strength."

"Sir, rest assured. There's no book I, Shen Yanyue, can't sell, let alone one with such interesting content."

Hearing this, Xie Qi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile. He knew he had found the right person.

Although this Shen Fangzhu looks young, he has an extraordinary business acumen. Such a partner is undoubtedly the most ideal choice.

By the time the conversation ended, the night had gradually deepened and they only then realized the passage of time, so they hurried towards the palace.
