In the office of the Confucian Journal.
Chief Editor Ma looked at Liang Zhu's ending and sighed with emotion. He was very familiar with Liang Zhu's story. Who would have thought that Mo Jiazi would have such great magic power after being embellished with butterflies? The whole Chang 'an City was obsessed with him. Coupled with the sensation caused by the famous poem Yanqiu Ci, it was not a simple addition but an explosive effect.
Ordinary people were amazed by the setting of butterflies, while scholars were almost completely immersed in Yanqiu Ci.
"This is Mo Jiazi!" Wei Sian looked at the latest issue of Mo Jiazi's journal and suddenly felt sad and indignant. It was indeed Mo Jiazi's style to spew out poems at the slightest disagreement.
Wei Sian could imagine that the circulation of this issue of Mo Jiazi's journal would definitely increase again. The Confucian Journal would never catch up with it. Even in the future, these three issues of Mo Jiazi's journal would definitely become a beautiful memory for the people of the Tang dynasty.
Wei Sian couldn't help but feel lucky. His decision to temporarily avoid the spotlight was a wise one. Otherwise, this issue of Confucian Journal would definitely be badly battered.
Chief Editor Ma was no longer as confident as before. He looked at Mo Jiazi's journal in silence.
"Headmaster, there's a letter from the Academy!" One of Chief Editor Ma's students hurried forward with a letter.
Chief Editor Ma's heart skipped a beat and he said, "But the Dean's article has arrived!"
The Dean of Nishan Academy was a famous Confucian in the Tang dynasty. Once his article was published in Confucian Journal, it would definitely attract countless people's attention. This was also Chief Editor Ma's greatest effort to increase the sales of Confucian Journal.
The student hesitated and said, "The Dean's message arrived at the same time as the Dean's article. He wants Headmaster to confirm that Liang Zhu is in Nishan Academy."
"What?" Chief Editor Ma exclaimed.
The student nodded bitterly. He was afraid that Nishan Academy had sent a letter before Chief Editor Ma had the time to see the Confucian Journal's article denying Liang Zhu's presence in Nishan Academy.
"It's too late!"
Chief Editor Ma felt a chill in his heart. Now that he had seen Liang Zhu's ending, he naturally knew the value of Liang Zhu. Any Academy that could get Liang Zhu's help would definitely become famous. The benefits were self-evident..
However, in a moment of impulse, he had pushed away such a great opportunity from the Nishan Academy.
"Chief Editor, Hongluo Academy and Songshan Academy have sent letters, requesting to publish an article in the next issue of the Confucian Journal to prove that they are the true academies of Liang Zhu," an editor said as he pushed open the door.
Chief Editor Ma's face suddenly turned pale. Hongluo Academy and Songshan Academy were both academies that were as famous as Nishan Academy. They usually competed fiercely and secretly fought for the best students. Moreover, there were legends of Liang Zhu in both academies.
Now, Mo Jiazi's legend of Liang Zhu turning into a butterfly and his poem of Yanqiu were destined to be passed down for generations to come. As the academy where Liang Zhu studied, it could be said that it carried the most beautiful love between Liang Zhu and Zhu Liang. No matter which academy obtained it, with Liang Zhu's help, they would definitely have an advantage.
This time, the Nishan Academy had seized the opportunity, and the legend of Liang Zhu was almost in the bag. However, because of his one-sided words, the Nishan Academy had given up the opportunity to be the best in the Tang dynasty. He had been complacent and thought that he was smart, but now it seemed that he was simply stupid.
At this moment, the second issue of the Confucian Journal should have reached the Nishan Academy. Chief Editor Ma could imagine how angry the Nishan Academy would be when they saw this issue, and he would be the biggest traitor of the Nishan Academy.
Wei Sian looked at Chief Editor Ma and suddenly felt sympathy for him. Mo Jiazi was so strange that it was a disaster to go against him.
At this moment, a servant of the Wei family suddenly rushed into the Confucian Journal. When he saw Wei Sian, he handed him an envelope and said, "Young Master, Master asked me to give this to you immediately. He said that there is news from the palace!"
"News from the palace?" Wei Sian was shocked. Only Imperial Concubine Wei could send news from the palace.
"Could it be that there is a turning point in that matter?" Wei Sian was looking forward to it. His father had said all kinds of good things to ask Imperial Concubine Wei to promise to put in a good word for him in the palace at the right time. Could it be that it had already happened?
Wei Sian couldn't wait to open the envelope in his hand. When he saw the contents, his face suddenly changed wildly. His heart trembled, and his face suddenly flushed!
"Mo Jiazi!" Wei Sian gnashed his teeth and said with hatred.
"What's wrong with the boss?" Chief Editor Ma couldn't help but frown.
Wei Sian's face was uncertain, "Mo Jiazi's lover has finally been confirmed!"
Chief Editor Ma was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"
"It's Princess Changle!" Wei Sian said bitterly.
Chief Editor Ma suddenly understood. No wonder this woman was so mysterious. No matter how the whole Chang 'an City investigated, it was still like a stone sinking into the sea. No wonder Wei Sian went to the palace to ask for her hand in marriage, but he ended up like this. So far, all the doubts had been solved.
When he learned that it was Princess Changle, all the doubts seemed to be explained at this moment.
Wei Sian was ashamed and angry, and the fire of jealousy in his heart burned fiercely. He said sternly in his heart, "Mr. Ma, do you think the Confucian periodical should …"
Although Wei Sian didn't say it clearly, Chief Editor Ma immediately understood his intention. Even if Mo Jiazi forcibly cleared his name, as long as the Confucian periodical secretly fanned the flames, it would definitely add a lot of trouble to the two.
Chief Editor Ma shook his head. If it was before, the behavior of the two was no less than a bolt from the blue. However, after the incident of the daughter of the Han family, Mo Jiazi forcibly changed the marriage law and wrote that Liang Zhu was popular in the Tang dynasty. At this moment, the love between the two was comparable to that of Liang Zhu.
"The Confucian periodical should pretend that it doesn't know about this. Mo Jiazi dares to bewitch the eldest princess. His Majesty will make the decision. We just need to wait for the news." Chief Editor Ma denied.
Wei Sian suddenly understood. He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. How could they interfere with the royal affairs? If they angered His Majesty, even the Confucian periodical couldn't cover it!
Within the city of Chang 'an, the Mo Periodical and the Confucian Periodical were the most sensitive to news. The Confucian Periodical was like this, and so was the Mo Periodical. When the entire Mo Estate learned that their young master's sweetheart was Princess Changle, everyone could not help but rejoice.
"Young Master is indeed the young master!"
"Young Master is overflowing with talent. He and Princess Changle are really a match made in heaven."
Many people in the Mo Mansion beamed with joy. Princess Changle was the eldest princess. If Meton could marry the princess, what a great honor it would be.
Uncle Fu and Mr. Li heaved a sigh of relief. They had been worried about Meton's marriage. Finally, it was settled.
"Before this matter is settled, the Mo Periodical should pretend that it doesn't know about this to avoid new problems." Mr. Li ordered Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu nodded and ordered the disciples of the Mo Mansion, "From now on, everyone in the Mo Mansion will close the door and refuse all visitors!"
