    Manager Wan took the paper and looked at it, feeling his scalp numb.

    "Recruiting scribes, no matter male or female, 100 words per 10 taels."

    What does Miss Lou want to do?

    "Manager Wan, please help me find someone, thank you." Lou Xuanying clasped her hands together and looked at him with a pleading smile.

    Seeing the embarrassment on Mr. Wan¡¯s face, Lou Xuanying assured him again and again: ¡°I will pay for it myself, I don¡¯t need Prince Jing¡¯s palace to give it to me.¡±

    "Miss, that's not what I meant, but what kind of book do you want them to copy?"

    "When people come, I will tell them, please, Mr. Wan, can you help me find more people quickly?"

    Seeing the anxious look on her face, Manager Wan couldn't hold it off any longer, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone do it right away, but Miss, is the price of 10 taels per thousand words too high?"

    You must know that even the servants in the palace don¡¯t have that much silver. Ten taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to use for several months.

    "No, I can afford it. Also, let's have more than twenty tables and chairs in the yard, and each table and chair should be equipped with pens, ink, paper and inkstones."

    Manager Wan had no choice but to take the paper and leave.

    Half an hour later, the maid knocked on the courtyard door of Ying Yueju and informed her that the person she was looking for was already waiting in front of the courtyard.

    Lou Xuanying stretched out, stood up from the soft chair, and found two guards to move the two boxes of books brought by Eunuch Wu to the courtyard.

    There were about twenty people gathered in the courtyard, including men and women, but there were only a few women. Many of them looked scholarly and were discussing and speculating about the notices they had seen.

    "Copying books, do you know what books to copy?"

    "I don't know, but it's only a thousand words and ten taels. It can be copied in less than an hour. Isn't this money so profitable?"

    "Who knows, Prince Jing's palace will naturally not be short of money. Hasn't Prince Jing been canonized as the prince?"

    Lou Xuanying stood up in the midst of their excitement. As soon as she clapped her hands, the guards placed the two big boxes in the center of the yard with a bang.

    The crowd suddenly fell silent, and all attention was focused on Lou Xuanying.

    "Everyone, just sit down after you have chosen a seat. Don't guess what book it is. The book I want you to copy is in this box. Whoever is faster will earn more money. The writing is not required to be beautiful and neat, but in the end  At least I can see clearly, okay, no more requirements, you can start."

    Everyone sat down as instructed, but still gathered together to discuss quietly.

    "Is this the eldest lady of the prime minister's house? She used to have a reputation for being stupid, but later her reputation got worse and worse. However, she is quite a righteous person, and people have different opinions on her."

    "It seems so. She often shows up in the Imperial City. I have seen her several times. Isn't it rumored that she is having an affair with a man in the past few days?"

    "Shh! She seems to be looking over at us, but don't let her hear it. It's such a good opportunity to make money" When the people in the discussion saw her turning around, they hurriedly gestured to the people around them to be silent, and the crowd fell silent instantly.  .

    Lou Xuanying's ear was very good, so she naturally heard their whispers. She felt a little unhappy, but she didn't say anything.

    "Open the box and give them the books inside."

    She gave the order, and the guards immediately opened the box, and there were several thick classics lying inside. When they saw the "Female Virtues" at the top, some people couldn't help laughing.

    "Miss, there are only six books in this book. There are more than 20 of them. How should we divide them?"

    "Tear it apart and take one part for each person." Lou Xuanying directly ordered the guards to do it without thinking.

    The guard hesitated, and finally a brave man stood up and reminded in a low voice: "Miss, this is the book sent from the palace, tear it up just in case"

    "Nothing goes wrong, just tear it apart and do it. I will bear the consequences. What are you afraid of?"

    The emperor should have some awareness if he wants to give her these six thick books. It is simply a dream to keep the books in her hands intact!

    After Lou Xuanying finished speaking, she yawned and walked into the hall. As she walked, she said to the people sitting upright behind her: "After copying a thousand words, bring it to the hall for me to review. The money will be paid in person."

    After that, Lou Xuanying sat comfortably in the hall with her legs crossed. There were various fruits and snacks on the round table beside her. She supported her head with one hand and randomly picked up snacks and put them in her mouth. Don't mention too many snacks like that.  Comfortable.

    Manager Wan looked at the powerful scribe team in the courtyard, shook his head helplessly, and silently retreated to the accounting room.

    Miss Lou, this is really nonsense, but before he asked someone to put up a notice for Miss Lou,I have sent someone to inform the prince of this matter, but after so long, there is still no news from the palace. Does the prince acquiesce to the eldest lady's behavior?

    Since the prince has agreed, as the steward of the palace, he naturally cannot have any objection.

    An hour passed, and people in twos and threes brought the written papers into the hall and handed them to her.

    Lou Xuanying flipped through it casually. The words on the first page were very neat, and the further back they went, the more scrawled they became. However, compared to her own handwriting, it was still much prettier, so she naturally had no objection.

    She accepted their paper, took some silver from a large bag of broken silver on the table, and handed it over.

    Twenty -two silver was in the palm of the palm, and the cola broke the people. It turned out that Miss Lou's silver was really so easy to earn.

    "Miss Lou, can we copy it again?"

    "Okay, we'll finish the work when everything is copied. Before that, you can copy as much as you can."

    So, when she saw that they didn't delay any more, she immediately ran out and continued copying.

    Lou Xuanying sat bored, looking into the yard from time to time, but most of the time she was staring at the snacks on the table.

    I don¡¯t know how much time passed, but the palace guard hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and squeezed into the hall. He anxiously told her in the hall: "Miss, I saw from a distance that the sedan chair from the palace was being carried towards our palace. Those people in the courtyard were  What should people do?¡±

    "A sedan in the palace?" Lou Xuanying raised her eyebrows, and quickly reacted, throwing a piece of broken silver at the guard who tipped off the news, "Go out first and see who it is."

    "Yes, Miss." The guard collected the money and immediately ran out again.

    Miss Lou is really generous. She earns money just by reporting the letter.

    Soon, the doorman squeezed into the hall again.

    "Miss, she is the fifth princess. She is just outside the palace. Do you want to open the door immediately and let her in?"

    The guards looked at her in embarrassment. After all, the person coming was a princess, and it would not be easy for them to stop her.

    "No, let her in."

    "OK."

    The guard withdrew and asked someone to open the palace door at the same time. Mo Xiaoqi walked in, but when she saw the situation in the courtyard, she was stunned and lost her reaction for a moment.

    "Thiswhat's going on?"

    There are so many tables and chairs in the yard, and there are people sitting in every seat. These people's faces are still very unfamiliar, and they are all busy writing. The imperial examination is nothing more than that, right?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
