Chapter 159: The Argument in the Palace: Drag Someone Into the Water

"Your Majesty, I have indeed been to the Wanshu Pavilion."

Hearing Akino's admission, some of the people kneeling were slightly stunned, while others were secretly happy.

"Oh?"

The emperor was a little curious. His prime minister had always been a man who dared to act and take responsibility, but he didn't know how he would resolve this matter.

"Your Majesty, I went to the Wanshu Pavilion out of curiosity because I heard that it was unique."

"There are thousands of books in Wanshu Pavilion, and they can all be bought and sold. The books that are available in ordinary bookstores are sold at a lower price in Wanshu Pavilion, so that more people who want to read but don't have the money to buy books have the opportunity to read."

"There are many books in the Wanshu Pavilion that I have never seen before. Although these books are more expensive than the Four Books and Five Classics, they are still for sale."

"The most important thing is that Wanshu Pavilion allows scholars to read books in the store. Those poor people who want to read but cannot afford to buy books can also pay 20 coins and read books in the store for a day."

"May I ask you all, is the behavior of the Wanshu Pavilion selfless and beneficial to Dayan?"

Without waiting for others to refute, Qiu Ye continued, "Which of the ministers has a few unseen books in their homes? I want you to take them out and sell them. Are you willing?"

"I think everyone here knows the importance of reading better than I do. I would like to ask you, if you have so many books, can you achieve the level of the Ten Thousand Book Pavilion?"

"Furthermore, what you all said about buying and selling the examination papers of previous spring exams is indeed true."

"Master Xu, Master Yan, as the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Justice, you are very familiar with the laws of Dayan."

"I'm a little curious. Does Wanshu Pavilion's sale of past spring exam papers really violate the Great Yan Law? Does the Great Yan Law prohibit the sale of past spring exam papers?"

As Akino spoke, he looked at the Minister of Justice and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court who were also standing there. His face was full of curious questions, but his eyes were extremely serious and earnest.

Hearing this, the two looked at the emperor and spoke after thinking for a while.

"Dayan law does not stipulate that the examination papers of previous spring examinations cannot be bought and sold."

"Yes, Dayan law does not stipulate this."

Seeing this, the kneeling man immediately spoke up, "Your Majesty, although the Great Yan Law does not have clear provisions, if this is left unchecked, it will sooner or later undermine the imperial examination system and the state system."

"Your Majesty, the Wanshu Pavilion will sooner or later disrupt the order of the Great Yan court. Please make the decision and seal off the Wanshu Pavilion."

"Your Majesty, please seal up the Wanshu Pavilion."

"Your Majesty, please seal up the Wanshu Pavilion."

After hearing what the ministers said, the emperor's expression did not change, but his eyes looked at Akino.

Qiu Ye bowed slowly and said, "Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate to seal up the Wanshu Pavilion."

"Now the Wanshu Pavilion has been recognized by Dayan students and is even very popular among Dayan students. If it is closed down at will, it may hurt the hearts of Dayan students."

"I think that the Wanshu Pavilion's buying and selling of past spring examination papers is not all bad. What Lord Tang said has not happened yet, and it may not happen."

"But right now, the benefits demonstrated by the Wanshu Pavilion are something that no other country has ever seen."

"The Wanshu Pavilion buys and sells the examination papers of previous years. It can not only improve the ability of the shortlisted students, but also stimulate the desire of all the people of Dayan to learn and to take the imperial examination. It can also improve the enthusiasm of all examiners."

"Your Majesty, there is no country today that has the courage of the Wanshu Pavilion to sell its collection of books and even allow every student in Dayan to read books, even those from poor families."

"If we continue like this, the benefits will only grow bigger and more obvious. By then, we will not only be able to expand the scope of Dayan's students, but also improve the capabilities of Dayan's court officials, thereby enhancing Dayan's national strength."

"Moreover, I believe that Mr. Zhang and Earl Yong'an are well aware of the preciousness of the books in the Wanshu Pavilion."

"Such a precious book, Wanshu Pavilion can take it out as soon as it says so. It's not even one or two, or dozens of books, but hundreds of books."

"If we do not encourage such courage and even suppress it, who will dare to take out the book? That will truly disrupt the order of Dayan and destroy the national system of Dayan."

Hearing this, the emperor looked at Mr. Zhang and asked, "Grand Secretary and Earl of Yong'an? Have you also been to the Wanshu Pavilion?"

Seeing this, Earl Yong'an cursed in his heart but answered with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, I have two little ones at home who love books very much. It is indeed as the Prime Minister said, the books in the Wanshu Pavilion are extremely precious, and many of them have never been seen. My two children also admire the Wanshu Pavilion very much."

"Your Majesty, I have read the books in the Wanshu Pavilion. They are indeed rare. Some of the books I have never seen, but the content and quality of the books are excellent. I have read a book called "Yu Qin Travel Notes". Although I have only read the first volume, I have read it several times. Whether it is the writing style or what I have seen and heard, it is worth reading repeatedly."

Mr. Zhang and Earl Yong'an had no choice but to answer truthfully.

Qiu Ye dragged them into this, but it really happened. If they were to distance themselves from the matter now, Qiu Ye would probably strike back at them.

Thinking about what the brat had done yesterday and the two thousand five hundred taels of silver, they both felt aggrieved and angry.

At this time, the court also had a tendency to decide the outcome because of the participation of Old Zhang and Earl Yong'an.

Seeing that the two did not refute or distance themselves from the matter, Akino had an idea in his mind.

Just as she said, Mr. Zhang and Earl Yong'an would definitely stand on his side, since they had been dragged into the water and were already in the same pool.

Then he won't be polite.

"Your Majesty, the role of the Wanshu Pavilion will become increasingly important, and it will only benefit Dayan. As for the sale of the examination papers of previous spring examinations, Your Majesty, the examination papers of previous spring examinations have already been taken and will not appear again. In this case, there is not much effect in keeping them. Why not sell them to scholars to enhance the competitiveness of the imperial examinations?"

"Furthermore, Your Majesty can also prevent disruptions to the imperial examinations by imposing more control over the examination papers."

After hearing what Qiu Ye said, the emperor nodded secretly, his heart full of approval, but his face showed curiosity.

"Oh? How do you think we can control it, Prime Minister?"

Hearing the emperor's question, the people kneeling down secretly said: Not good.

"Your Majesty, I think that you can stipulate that a few specific bookstores can buy and sell Spring Examination papers, and other bookstores are not allowed to buy and sell Spring Examination papers."

"Or, only Wanshu Pavilion is allowed to buy and sell Spring Examination papers, but it needs to cooperate with Dayan. Your Majesty can send officials to cooperate with Wanshu Pavilion in buying and selling Spring Examination papers."

"With the regulation of bookstores by the court, other bookstores will not dare to easily buy and sell previous imperial examination papers, and there will be no chaos. With court officials cooperating with them to manage the sale of imperial examination papers, there will be no disruption of the imperial examination order."

Akino's words stunned everyone present, and they were almost unable to help but agree.

However, when he thought about the influence of Wanshu Pavilion on these aristocratic families, his heart rose to his throat again.

Your Majesty, you won't be persuaded?
