After being expelled from the mansion, I changed the dynasty by writing novels.

Bai Zunxing wasn't doubting that books could be bought on the street, but she didn't believe that her usually refined and aloof brother, who seemed like a god untouched by worldly affairs, would condescend to look at books bought on the street, especially not for her.

No one knows Brother Zunxing better than him. She jokingly asked him, "Where did you buy it from on the street? I want to buy one too."

Bai Zunyue ignored her, not even lifting his eyelids, focusing intently on his chopsticks and eating his meal with proper decorum, like a noble young master from a prestigious family.

Bai Zunyue thought his sister was joking. However, after finishing his meal, he was handling government affairs in his study when, after a while, he heard the guard at the door announce that his young lady had arrived.

He held the pen and raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Then a familiar figure pushed open the door and rushed to his desk.

"Brother, where did you buy the book you gave me?" After finishing her meal, she took the book back from Bai Zunyue.

She finished reading the last story in her boudoir, only to discover that the last story was not yet over.

It was already stuck in the most important position, which made her feel uneasy.

She originally wanted to go to bed early, but as soon as she closed her eyes, all she could think about was the story of "The Domineering Prince Falls in Love with His Little Maid," which disturbed her peace of mind.

Unable to fall asleep, she called her personal maid back into the room, dressed herself again, and learned from a servant in the manor that her brother was still in his study handling official business, so she couldn't wait to come over.

She planned to find out the location from her brother and have her personal maid buy her a new copy first thing tomorrow morning, otherwise she didn't know when her brother would return home after court tomorrow.

If it weren't for the late hour, she would have been so anxious that she would have gone out immediately to have her maid buy it. This storybook is truly toxic!

Bai Zunyue couldn't understand what was so appealing about this book that made his sister so obsessed with it, and she wanted to ask him about it too.

Under her relentless pursuit and persistent pleading, Bai Zunyue had no choice but to reveal where she bought the book.

Bai Zunxing learned the location from her brother and left the study satisfied.

Once she left, Bai Zunyue couldn't bear to read the letter in her hand anymore.

He saw a familiar face after court today and felt a pang of pity for some reason. He saw that she was wearing a hood and hawking her wares on the street, which was very different from her previous appearance. When he first arrived in the capital, he learned from his advisors that she was not the eldest daughter of the Lin family.

He hadn't paid any attention at first, but upon seeing her, he found himself having his servant buy her book.

Bai Zunyue rubbed her head as if she had a headache.

Meanwhile, Ye Yuwu packed up her stall and went back to her bookstore to count her money.

I didn't expect the headgear to work so well.

Hua Ping happily went to the kitchen to cook and eat, while Ye Yuwu put the counted money into her money bag.

She sells a book for 150 coins, and today she sold 15 copies, earning 2 strings of cash.

She has contacted the same people who copied the books last time and decided to copy another thirty. She won't set up her stall tomorrow; she'll see how things go after she finishes copying them.

However, the bookstore can still sell the remaining five books first.

Tomorrow she will start writing the story "The Overbearing Prince Falls in Love with His Little Maid" at the bookstore. She plans to publish a new book every seven days, and in a few days she will need to collect new stories.

Touching the money pouch, Ye Yuwu was completely satisfied.

The next day, Ye Yuwu stayed in the bookstore to write her story, while the others were already familiar with the process and were copying it in the courtyard.

As a result, the maid Bai Zunxing sent out early in the morning came up empty-handed.

When Bai Zun returned to the Marquis's residence under the moonlight, he was greeted by his sister's sarcastic remarks, leaving him both amused and exasperated.

Unable to learn the details of the story, Bai Zunxing was extremely sad. When several of her close friends came to the Marquis's residence to visit her, she was still sullen and listless, unable to muster any enthusiasm for anything.

The group thought something had happened to her and asked her with concern.

"Zunxing, what happened today?" One of the young women, dressed in a long blue silk dress, looked at her with concern, her eyebrows furrowed.

At this moment, the maids beside them had all retreated outside the pavilion, so they could not hear what the girls were saying.

"Well, it's really nothing. I'm afraid you'll laugh at me if I tell you." She felt a little embarrassed thinking about how miserable she had been these past two days. It was all because of a book; people who didn't know better would think she was heartbroken!

In fact, her close friends, seeing her like this, really thought she was troubled by love, but they didn't ask her directly out of consideration for her.

The fact that something could embarrass even a young lady from the Marquis's mansion piqued their interest, and they quickly pressed her for details.

Bai Zunxing blushed and explained the whole story to them.

"That book is indeed very good." It was the young woman in the blue dress who spoke.

They were all noble ladies from Bianjing, which is why they were able to play together.

Like Bai Zunxing, they were bored on weekdays, so they would either tend to flowers and plants, do some embroidery and needlework, or pass the time by reading. Their favorite thing was to secretly read storybooks in private.

However, the elders in the family must not know this, otherwise they will be scolded. Occasionally, when they get together, they will discuss what books they have read that day. Some of the handkerchiefs will even share new stories with their sisters.

But they had never seen Bai Zunxing like this before, and they all became very curious about the book in her mouth.

Bai Zunxing instructed a maidservant nearby to fetch the books from her room.

They drank tea and ate pastries in the pavilion, and soon a maid brought books and placed them on their stone table.

The group took turns holding books and huddled together to read them.

The book's cover was unique, which piqued the curiosity of the group.

The woman in green was the first to open the book and read it.

"This is a newly published book, which is made up of a series of short stories. The writing style is not fancy, but the stories can make you feel like you are there, especially the last story..." She stopped subconsciously as she said this, and a mischievous feeling welled up inside her.

Why is it that only she is so obsessed with this storybook and yet cannot obtain it?

Since they were her close friends, she should let them experience the same feelings as her. Besides, she had finally come across a good book and was eager to share it with others, and she also wanted someone to discuss the plot of the story with her.

So she thought about it and decided not to remind them. The group gathered together and read for a while.

As they were about to leave, Bai Zunxing generously lent them the books so they could take turns reading them.

The woman in blue was the first to take the book back and continue reading. She read it very carefully, afraid of being discovered by her family.

Unlike Bai Zunxing, who ate with her family in the dining hall, she usually ate in her own room.

But once she got the book and started reading it in her room, she couldn't stop. She even skipped dinner and finished the book in one go.

At this point, the withdrawal symptoms kicked in. She could eat dinner after finishing her reading, but the food tasted bland.

Her mind was filled with the stories she had read, especially the last one.

"A serialized storybook! That's really too much." This was the first time she had ever heard of such a thing. If it weren't for the fact that the book was being serialized at the end, she wouldn't have known it was a serialized storybook.

Bai Zunxing smiled gently, her bright eyes sparkling.

She was no longer sad. She calmly drank the steaming tea and watched the woman, who had become just as irritable as she had been before.

Finally, someone shared her feelings, and she wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.
