Chapter 246 "Regulations on the Administration of the News" "I'm here to ask you, how many people in Datang are literate now?"
"Uh......
I don't know.
"Li Jingmeng, how does he know this?
Not to mention him, even the prime ministers of the three provinces, I'm afraid they don't know, right?
In these years, even when the population statistics are difficult, do you still want to count the literacy rate of Datang?
It's just a fantasy.
Li Shimin smiled: "I don't know, but I think this proportion shouldn't be too high."
That's what it says.
Literate families are generally well-off, do you think they will feel distressed by spending an extra penny a day?
What's more, although the newspaper is something that can be thrown away after reading it once, but after you finish reading it, you can give the newspaper to others to read, and the words on it will not disappear anyway. ” "The emperor is wise, but the minister is thinking about it."
Seeing that everyone had no problem, Li Shimin said: "This matter will be handed over to Xuancheng to you to be responsible, wait a minute, I will give you a warrant, and you will take over the "Datang Daily".
In the last few days, it is enough to publish the decrees and policies of the DPRK and China, and after the newspaper is accepted by the people, you can start to defend Zhen'a. ” "The ministers obey the order, and the ministers will live up to Your Majesty's high expectations, and they will definitely suppress the arrogance of the family."
"Well, that's it for today......"
"Wait a minute."
Fang Xuanling suddenly spoke, almost scaring Li Shimin to death: "I said Fang Qing, what's the matter with you?"
” "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, it was the minister who was abrupt, but the minister thought of a very important issue, and we have to pay attention."
"Oh?
What is it?
Li Shimin hurriedly sat up straight, and asked with a straight face, Fang Xuanling is not the kind of person who bluffs, since he said that it was a very important matter, then this matter must be very important.
"Your Majesty, everyone has overlooked a problem."
Fang Xuanling frowned, and said in a condensed voice: "Don't forget, newspapers are not too high-end things, as long as there is a printer and a paper mill, anyone can do it."
If we can do it, then others can do it too, and once the other party realizes the importance of newspapers, then they will inevitably create newspapers and periodicals, not only competing with us for control of public opinion, but also possibly smearing us......
We have to guard against it. ” "I have already expected this, I have been prepared for a long time, I originally thought that it would be raised at the court meeting tomorrow, but since Fang Qing asked about it, let's show it to you first, and by the way, I will mention my opinion."
I thought it was a big deal, but I didn't expect Fang Xuanling's problem to be this, Li Shimin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, took out a booklet from the table and handed it over.
"The Press Control Ordinance?
This......
Wonderful, that's amazing......"
"yes, why didn't we think of it."
"As long as it is enacted into law and the legitimacy of Datang Daily is confirmed, other people's newspapers can only be fake, and who will buy their newspapers?"
"But what are these "Datang Morning Post", "Datang Evening News", "Chang'an Daily" and "Luoyang Daily"?
Aren't we just one Datang Daily......
The minister understood......" “……” The "Regulations on the Administration of the Press" is actually a law prohibiting others from opening newspapers, emphasizing that only newspapers run by the Tang Dynasty are orthodox newspapers and are authoritative, and the rest of the private individuals are not allowed to open newspapers, otherwise they will ......
The slave camp of the Subordinate Division is your final resting place.
Even if someone dares to secretly open a newspaper and is not caught, the sales will definitely not be high, and it will have little impact on public opinion.
As for why there are so many newspapers......
The power of public opinion is too terrible, Li Shimin will never allow public opinion to be controlled only by one "Datang Daily", and decentralization is necessary - even there are several prime ministers......
What's more, a few more newspapers can also expand the influence of public opinion, after all, no matter how perfect a newspaper is, there will always be places that cannot be taken care of, and a few more can also increase the scope of radiation.
Li Shimin did not explain too much, but said: "These newspapers will not be distributed for the time being, and after a period of time, the people will accept the newspapers, and this will be officially published."
In addition, we are not the only ones, after the newspapers are completely mature, the imperial court will open some more professional newspapers, such as "Military Daily", "Business Daily", "Agricultural Daily", "Journal", etc., which will gradually be handed over to your Aiqing. ” "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."
"Okay, that's all there is to it, let's all go back."
"Yes, the ministers are leaving." …… "Whew, I've finally got it done."
With a long breath, Li Shimin leaned back in his chair to catch his breath, rested a little, and then continued to deal with official business. …… The matter on Li Shimin's side is over, but the sensation in the palace has just begun, to be precise, in the harem......
As soon as Du Ruhui finished reading the holy decree and left, the entire harem was completely overturned......
"Slave and maid congratulate Niangniang, congratulate Niangniang, Niangniang favors the harem alone, and the mother is the world."

"Slave and maid congratulate Niangniang, congratulate Niangniang, Niangniang favors the harem alone, and the mother is the world."
"Slave and maid congratulate Niangniang, congratulate Niangniang, Niangniang favors the harem alone, and the mother is the world." “……” Concubine Yan's status in the palace is not low, not only because she is Concubine De and is one of the four concubines, but more importantly, Concubine Yan has a very competitive son......

Now in the harem, many people are speculating about when Li Zhen will be made the prince, but to everyone's surprise, it was not Li Zhen who was canonized first, but Concubine Yan, and she was canonized as the queen at one time.
