Chapter 441: Death


The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and Liu Xun has changed into spring clothes and sat behind the long and wide imperial table.

After he took charge of the government, he asked Cheng Mo to send a batch of official hats and chairs into the palace, and Cheng Mo naturally complied.

Several cases and mats in the Xuanmur Hall and Jianzhang Palace were all replaced with Eight Immortal Tables and official hat chairs, and the imperial cases that usually handled government affairs were also replaced with large desks.

He is the emperor and has a respected status, and the special imperial table is two feet two feet longer and one foot two wider than the one in Cheng Mo's study.

The chairs are also specially made and comfortable to sit on.

On the royal table, several rectangular silks were spread, and the words on them were neatly arranged.

"This is printed" Liu Xun looked at it carefully for a long time, then looked up and asked Cheng Mo, who was sitting opposite.

After the dispersal, Cheng Mo went to the Xuanshu Hall and presented a few pieces of white silk that he had handprinted yesterday.

Liu Xun has been looking at a few white silks for a long time.

"Yes."

Cheng Mo said: "Just use white silk printing, the cost is too high, if you can develop paper, it can greatly save costs."

The minister is organizing craftsmen to make paper. ” Cheng Mo probably knew that paper was made of plant fibers, but he didn't know how it was made, but he only vaguely remembered that there was a great eunuch Cai Lun in the Eastern Han Dynasty who had successfully researched it, and it was called Cai Lun paper at that time, and it was rumored for a while.

However, Cai Lun paper is very rough, and many people are not used to using it, but it is a big step forward for scientific and technological inventions, and rice paper is based on Cai Lun paper, which is gradually improved.

These days, he asked some craftsmen, most of whom did not know about plants.

The craftsman who was asked was very strange, the world values meat and vegetables, and plants are cheap, so what is there to know, Cheng Mo has not found a craftsman who can carry the banner of papermaking until now.

Liu asked: "What is paper?"

Cheng Mo briefly introduced the paper and said: "If you can make high-quality white paper, you can greatly reduce the cost of books, and the text can be printed and distributed all over the world, so that more people can read and write, participate in the imperial examination, and over time, there will be more talents for Your Majesty to choose." ” "I hope that paper can be developed soon, and before there is paper, I will print it on white silk.

Five hundred horses of white silk were allocated from the treasury for printing. ” Liu Xun made the final decision, if he could take the world's talents for use, what a pity for only 500 white silk Cheng Mo said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

I asked His Majesty for permission to set up a printing office to specialize in printing. ” "I'm right."

Liu Xun immediately issued an edict, and Cheng Mo set up a printing bureau, and the 500 white silk horses allocated from the treasury were returned to Cheng Mo for disposal.

When the news came out, the ministers were in an uproar, since Huo Guang retired and the emperor was in power, Cheng Mo had done a lot of new things, and if he continued to do so, would they still have a way to live But the emperor's edict said that it was for edification.

The merit of education is as important as the expansion of the territory, it is the emperor's political achievements, and if you want to oppose it in a book, it is untenable in theory.

What's more, the emperor issued an edict not long ago to implement the imperial examination system, who didn't see that the two things are closely related Su Zhi looked at the edict for a long time, but felt congested.

He originally thought that Huo Guang would retire, and the first person in the dynasty was himself, but he didn't expect Cheng Mo to attack strongly, and the emperor obeyed his words again.

When Huang Ba came in with the official document, he saw Su Zhi sitting in a daze, and said, "Prime Minister, what happened?"

"Nothing."

Su Zhi waved his hand and motioned for Huang Ba to go down.

That night, Zhang Bu went to Huang Ba's mansion again to ask for a meeting.

This is the sixth time he has come.

He has been rejected five times by Huang Ba.

"There's no need for the virtuous nephew to come again."

Huang Ba said: "You might as well study hard, participate in the imperial examination, and get good results." ” Candidates must go back to their hometown to take the college examination, if Zhang Bu plans to take the college examination, he would have packed up his things and returned to his hometown, how could he rely on the capital not to go He is determined to assassinate Cheng Mo, firmly believe that as long as Cheng Mo is assassinated, he can abolish the imperial examination system, and return to the old road of the inspection system and the conquest system.

For Huang Ba's stubbornness, he had patience, saluted at the table, and said earnestly: "Could it be that Uncle Shi can't bear to see the little nephew's great revenge when his grandfather was alive, he had the grace of knowing Uncle Shi, and the little nephew is the eldest grandson of his old man, if there is a spirit in his old man's house, it will be sad to see the little nephew being rejected repeatedly." ” Zhang Qiu recommended Huang Ba, this is a fact, Huang Ba can't deny it, but Zhang Bu used this as an excuse to threaten him three or four times, which made him very disgusted.

If it is an ordinary small favor, he can help, Zhang Bu asked him to help assassinate the important ministers of the court, how could he promise Cheng Mo to die in his house, can he get out of it "The virtuous nephew mentioned Ling Zu, but he didn't know what Ling Zuquan knew, and how he would feel when he saw that the virtuous nephew did not participate in the imperial examination."

Huang Ba said slowly.

Don't you want to talk about your grandfather, I'll accompany you?

Zhang Bu was speechless and could only leave.

At the same time, Cheng Mo returned to the house and learned that there was no one to support Dongluyu last night, so he finally relented, and whispered to Huo Shuhan to compensate him, and Peach Blossom also compensated Qingluo, so he was able to stay in the Yongchang Hou Mansion.

It's just that with her temperament, I don't know how long she can live.

Two days later, Zhang Bu learned that Cheng Mo had established a printing bureau, and felt that the opportunity had come, so he went to Huang Ba's mansion again to ask for a meeting.

Huang Ba didn't want to see him, he stayed in the gatehouse and didn't leave.

Huang Ba had no choice but to invite him in.

As soon as he saw Huang Ba, he said: "Uncle Shi, the little nephew heard that His Majesty had issued an edict to set up a printing office, and asked Uncle Shi to tell Cheng Thief to arrange for the little nephew to enter the printing office, and he will definitely go to the printing office to inspect it. ” Huang Ba glanced at his thin little body and said, "The work of a craftsman is very hard, can you do it?"

Zhang Bu patted his chest and said, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, the little nephew will definitely be able to do it." ” As long as you don't run to my house twice in three days to annoy me.

Huang Ba said: "I have to ask Prime Minister Su for this matter, if he is willing to help, he will ask Cheng Weiwei for it, and it will definitely be done."

It's just that no matter what happens, you can't confess Prime Minister Su and me.

You can say yes."

Tuosu is completely Huang Ba's excuse, and now that the printing company has just been established, it is when it needs manpower, and it is not difficult to enter.

Zhang Bu can't pick his shoulders, he can't lift his hands, and he doesn't have a skill, so he can only do miscellaneous labor, and he has to send a person to do miscellaneous labor, where is the need for Su Zhi to open his mouth and let him say to the craftsman in charge of printing, the old man surnamed Ouyang.

The printing office is a new thing, and it involves books that are valued by readers, and as soon as the edict is written, it has attracted much attention, and Ouyang Yu has also become a popular figure.

As long as there is a chance to get close to Cheng Mo, Zhang Bu agreed.

Huang Ba breathed a sigh of relief, and he was finally able to sleep peacefully at night. immediately instructed the chief to go to the relationship with Ouyang Yupan, saying that the relatives in the countryside wanted to wash their feet and go to the fields to find a job as a handyman.

The request from the Prime Minister's Mansion was something that Ouyang Yu couldn't even imagine, so he naturally agreed.

In this way, Zhang Bu infiltrated the printing office and became a handyman. t1706231537:
