Chapter 2263: Chapter 2260: Qin Garden

Even though this time the Qi family united everyone to try to pull him down from the Official Gazette Office, the effect did not meet expectations.

And that Ye Muyu could freely deal with the Qi family, win back fifty thousand taels without suspicion, was also part of the preparations he had considered.

"It seems we must also change our original views. Indeed, there are some commoners with rich experience, and this knowledge can be gathered into the Qi family’s bookstore," Elder Qi San said, then sneered: "However, since the Qi family’s bookstore is open to everyone, let’s give them a push."

"Just as we can learn the content ourselves, teach our people, and if mistakes occur, blame it on the Chu family. After many times, the Chu family’s idea of winning over scholars will be shattered."

As Elder Qi San said this, he sneered, thinking that Chu Heng was simply fantasizing. He just needed to issue an order, and there would be people constantly causing troubles with the books from the Chu family.

After many times, the impression those students have of idolizing the Chu family can change completely, and they would only think the Chu family is fishing for fame without any real level.

Previously, the reputation the Chu family managed was so good, afterward, the reputation would become very unpleasant.

Minister Qi immediately understood his meaning, stroked his beard: "Go ahead, don’t let it trace back to us. Chu Heng is still at the Official Gazette Office, although temporarily constrained, he can easily tarnish our reputation. He probably refrains from acting because he fears our retaliation."

"Yes, elder brother, I always believe in striking first."

After their conversation.

In less than ten days.

A new garden opened in the capital, offering a mix of places for sightseeing, leisure, games, drinking, and opera performances.

Because of the large size of the garden, coupled with its refreshing decorations and various forms of entertainment, and with the Qi family’s own network, many people supported it.

After all, it was a noble place, not open to commoners, but its reputation among the elite was significant.

On the opening day, the Young Master of the Qi family invited friends and classmates for entertainment.

Those invited considered it an honor.

Even at the academy where Chu Fu was, the event was being talked about.

The young masters of noble descent had been bragging in the school for three days about being invited by the Young Master of the Qi family to Qin Garden for leisure.

The news quickly spread throughout the school.

Chu Fu, who loved reading and rarely mingled in school, heard of the news only through his friend Song Nian.

"Chu Fu, did you receive an invitation?"

"What?" Chu Fu was reading a book. He was preparing for next year’s exams and needed to prepare a lot; he usually focused all his energy on studying and didn’t care about leisure activities.

Song Nian, seeing his genuine confusion, admired his effort: "Your knowledge in Class A is already top-notch, and you still work so hard, making me feel inferior."

"The invitation I mentioned is the one from the Young Master of the Qi family inviting people to Qin Garden for leisure and scholarly exchange. I heard that many students from noble families received it."

Upon hearing this, Chu Fu naturally replied: "My family is just ordinary farmers, of course, we wouldn’t receive an invitation. Aren’t you stating the obvious?"

Song Nian slapped his mouth, "I misspoke. Isn’t this because your Third Uncle is Lord Chu? With Lord Chu around, who would dare treat you as ordinary?"

"So, even though classmates in the academy may not be fond of you."
