The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

Of course, he can choose not to admit it.

But that would not be good for his appeal above the court.

Anyway, the struggle with Yan Song was life and death. Many big bosses also saw that only they could produce Jin Ping Mei, and disgustingly slandered Yan Song, the prince simply admitted it!

For the overjoyed prince, this kind of honor cannot be let go.Especially in the matter of Yan Song, the prince has always been very hard.

This is the time to show your muscles to the major court forces.

Thinking of this, the prince said to Wang Shizhen: "You have made such a great contribution this time, do you want to disclose your identity as Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng?"

Wang Shizhen was taken aback: "The prince is joking. How dare I make it public?"

The prince frowned, and said a little displeased: "You don't need to worry about Yan Song's revenge! 430 Your Jin Ping Mei is so well written this time, the lonely king will only use you more in the future! Write more novels attacking Yan Song to deal with Yan Song's cultural offensive ! The lonely king will definitely use you again! What are you worried about?"

Although Wang Shizhen was still a little afraid of Yan Song, but when he thought that the crown prince was so supportive, if he didn't agree, he might be angered, and the consequences would be quite unsightly.

Wang Bengu chuckled and said, "Yuanmei (Wang Shizhen's characters), just as the crown prince said, you wrote Jin Ping Mei this time, which greatly ruined the reputation of Yan Thief, and you are a rising star among my Qingliu ministers. The crown prince Keeping you safe and sound, you can gain both fame and fortune, why not do it?"

Wang Shizhen thought about it, this future is also very bright.

Although writing Jin Ping Mei is not a serious literary work, it made him famous all over the world and made him famous.

If this kind of fame can be washed away, it can indeed be transformed into a literary name!

Thinking of the terrifying influence of Jin Ping Mei, even Wang Shizhen was moved.

To be honest, he wrote Jin Ping Mei just to slander Yan Song, and he didn't think too much about it.

But what the hell, I didn't expect Jin Ping Mei to become popular!

There are 10 copies of Jin Ping Mei printed by the prince, and this time, some kind-hearted person printed another 10 copies of Jin Ping Mei. Wang Shizhen's reputation may be well-known all over the world.
