Ye Yang and Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry followed Eunuch Yun and walked into the Xinghe Palace where the emperor handles government affairs.

Jun Yi was sitting behind the desk, holding the bamboo slips in his hand, looking at the memorial that was handed down today, his expression darkened.

"Kowtow to my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Ye Yang gradually got used to the kneeling salute of this dynasty, seeing the emperor perform a kneeling salute habitually.

He moved so fast that the Minister of the Ministry of Industry was a beat behind him.

"Get up!"

Jun Yi put down the memorial in his hand, looked at the stack of papers in Ye Yang's hands, and asked, "Is this the paper you mentioned, Concubine Ye?"

"Exactly."

Ye Yang stepped forward, put the paper in his hand on the desk in front of Jun Yi, and introduced, "Your Majesty, this is the paper I was talking about. It can record all words, and it is much more convenient than bamboo slips."

Jun Yi picked up a piece of khaki-colored paper, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The surface of the paper was smooth and flat, and the thickness was appropriate. He quickly spread the paper on the desk, picked up the brush and began to write.

After a while, he wrote half a sheet of paper, and couldn't help nodding his head repeatedly, "Okay, it's really a good thing. It's so cool to write words without any blockage!"

"Your Majesty, that's not all. Painting on paper looks better than painting on bamboo slips." Ye Yang said as he took out the landscape painting drawn by Lao Li and handed it to Jun Yi.

Jun Yi took the paper, looked at the landscape painting that he had never seen before, and was amazed again and again, "It's beautiful, it's really beautiful."

"Your Majesty, this piece of paper doesn't take up much space. The amount of words in a roll of bamboo slips can be written on a single piece of paper."

Minister of the Ministry of Industry finally inserted a sentence to prove his existence.

Jun Yi nodded, he had discovered this just now.

In the past, he wanted to write a bamboo slip, but he only wrote a little more than half of this piece of paper.In the future, if everyone writes memorials on paper, wouldn't it be easier for him to review them?

"Your Majesty, this is a book bound by Mr. Concubine Ye. It is said that it can record a lot of literature, and it is very convenient to read."

Mr. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry carefully took out a book from his arms, and raised it above his head respectfully.

He didn't have the guts of Ye Yang to approach the emperor without his consent.

Seeing this, Eunuch Yun quickly took the book from Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and handed it to Jun Yi with both hands.

Jun Yi took the book and flipped through it curiously. Although there were no words in the book, it didn't affect his curiosity about the book.

"Your Majesty, this is the book I'm talking about. This book can record the knowledge of dozens or even hundreds of bamboo slips. People in the world no longer need to spend a lot of money to buy bamboo slips."

"How much does it cost to produce a book?"

This is what Jun Yi is most concerned about. Such a good thing should be expensive.

Ye Yang opened his mouth and was about to say something, but unexpectedly, Mr. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry moved a little faster than him, and quickly replied: "Back to the emperor, although the steps of making paper are troublesome, the raw materials are not valuable. Making a book is more cost-effective than making a roll of bamboo slips." .”

Ye Yang rolled his eyes, and secretly scolded Mr. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry for being so quick-spoken, stealing his chance to pretend.

Jun Yi froze for a moment, and asked uncertainly, "Is this paper really made of those tree barks?"

Just as Ye Yang wanted to speak, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry still didn't give him a chance, and rushed to answer: "Yes, Your Majesty, it's made of those worthless bark, straw, and vines."

I couldn't help but praise Ye Yang for a while, for actually using things that can be seen everywhere to make a god-shaking fetish.

Yes, in his eyes, this paper is undoubtedly a fetish.

He believes that it won't be long before paper will completely replace bamboo slips, and bamboo slips will become a thing of the past.

"Okay, as expected of Concubine Ye, who can create things that benefit the country and the people, rewards, and rewards for everything."

As soon as Jun Yi is happy, he likes to offer rewards.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry immediately kowtowed and knelt down.

"Okay, you go down!"

Jun Yi directly and ruthlessly issued an order to expel the guests from the Minister of Industry.

Mr. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry was very knowledgeable, and quickly stood up and left the Xinghe Palace.

Seeing this, Eunuch Yun hurriedly withdrew from the Xinghe Palace, leaving the two of them alone.

Jun Yi raised his head and saw that Ye Yang, who hid from him in the past like a plague god, was still standing there, with a puzzled expression on his face, "Why, does Concubine Ye want other special rewards?"

Ye Yang was not interested in joking with Jun Yi, he replied seriously: "Back to the emperor, I heard from others today that someone impeached my concubine this morning?"

Jun Yi nodded, proving that someone had indeed impeached him.

"The concubine dared to ask, why did the ministers impeach the concubine?" He had nothing to do with those officials, why did they impeach him?

To say there is a conflict of interest is justified.But he thought about it carefully. What he did was to fill the treasury of the Holy Dynasty. If the treasury of the Holy Dynasty was full, wouldn't it be powerful?With their strength stronger, wouldn't they be more secure in their current positions?So why are they impeaching themselves?

It's obviously a matter of mutual benefit, and these people must be so stupid that they will hurt both sides.

"Simple, because you have touched their interests." Jun Yi said with a half-smile, "Do you know whose interests you have touched?"

Ye Yang pondered for a while, and asked uncertainly, "The Luo family?"

In his impression, the Luo family has always made money from colored glaze craftsmanship. Although the glass cups he made are not comparable to colored glaze, they are similar and will definitely affect the Luo family's glazed sales.

Jun Yi nodded, indicating that he guessed right.

"Okay, I can barely bear with this Luo family, but why does Prime Minister You, who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people, want to impeach me?"

Ye Yang was very displeased, obviously he had no feud with Prime Minister You, why did Prime Minister You want to impeach him?

"Because Prime Minister You is Concubine Ling's father." Jun Yi briefly explained.

If Eunuch Yun was present, he would definitely be very surprised. Why did the emperor specifically state that Prime Minister You is Concubine Ling's father?After all, it is well known that Concubine Ling Gui is the son of Prime Minister You.

"Damn it, this Concubine Ling Gui is so annoying, she actually called for reinforcements."

Ye Yang was so angry that he was swearing, it was obviously a petty fight between the juniors, but he actually alerted the elders to suppress him.This is like two children fighting, and one of the children's fathers ran up to help his son beat the other child.

The most exasperating thing is that he has no reinforcements to move.

Jun Yi seemed to see his depression, and said: "Your father openly quarreled with Prime Minister You in order to speak for you in the morning court."

Ye Yang was a little surprised, he didn't expect the original owner's father to speak for him, and he felt inexplicably at ease.

However, it is impossible for him to just forgive those who impeached him. If they don't rectify them, they will think that he is a soft persimmon to be kneaded by others.

He knelt down suddenly, clasped his fists to Jun Yi and said, "Your Majesty, I still have one good thing that I can sell in Lan Yue Xuan, but the price has to be determined by me."

Jun Yi couldn't keep up with Ye Yang's thinking. One moment he was still suing the person who impeached him in the morning, but the next moment he was talking about selling things.

Although she couldn't keep up with Ye Yang's jumping thinking, she still supported her and said, "Concubine Ye can do whatever she wants, I will fully support you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."

Ye Yang stood up, and just about to exit the Xinghe Palace, Jun Yi picked up a brand new book and asked Ye Yang, "Concubine Ye, do you still have this book?"

"Your Majesty, as long as you open your mouth, you can have as many books as you want."

It's not that he is bragging, as long as the emperor speaks, they can make hundreds of books overnight.

After all, there are still a lot of raw materials that were soaked before, so much that now he wants to vomit just seeing the piles of soaked substances.

"Okay, later I will ask the historian to go to the Ministry of Industry to have a look, and ask them to figure out how many books they need to transcribe all the historical records."

Jun Yi looked at the books in his hands, smiling straight into his eyes, it seemed that he liked the books in his hands very much.

"The concubine will leave first."

Ye Yang didn't want to stay any longer at this moment, and exited Galaxy Palace as if fleeing.

Looking at the back in a hurry, Jun Yi smiled lightly and shook his head, with a genuine smile in his eyes that even he didn't realize it.

The historians of John College learned that all the historical records were going to be copied again, and they all burst into tears looking at the historical records higher than the mountains.

There are so many bamboo slips, how long will it take for them to copy them?

The Historian reluctantly took two of his subordinates to the Ministry of Industry, looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Industry who had already been waiting at the door, and greeted all the eighteen generations of the Minister of the Ministry of Industry in his heart.

"Ah, Mr. Bai, what kind of wind is this that brings you here?" The Minister of the Ministry of Industry was waiting at the gate of the Ministry of Industry. When he saw Mr. Bai with a livid face, he greeted him gloatingly.

He knows how many historical records there are. If all of them are copied down, the dozens of officials of the Johns College will probably have to copy them for a year!

"Ha ha…"

Mr. Bai smiled, looking at the schadenfreude Minister of the Ministry of Industry, his lungs were about to explode with anger. I don't know what the hell this Ministry of Industry invented to bring them into trouble?

Besides, this bamboo slip is fine, why change it?As for the paper mentioned in the imperial decree, sorry, he didn't see it, so he didn't know its goodness.But no matter how good it was, when he thought of the mountains of bamboo slips, he couldn't feel good about the paper.

Sure enough, no matter what new things come out, some people are happy and some are worried!

Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry saw that his former classmate and friend Master Bai was not happy, so he was happy, and said cheerfully: "Master Bai, I will take you to see the books."

Master Bai's face was still ashen, he snorted coldly, and complained quietly: "No matter how good this paper is, how about bamboo slips? Why do you have to replace all the bamboo slips with books?"

"Because it is convenient for future generations to look up!"

Mr. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry has seen books before. He records the content of an article or the same content in a book, and then writes the general content on the book cover, which is convenient for reference and generalized management.

The most important thing is the table of contents on the second page, that is really easy to use, write all the key points, and then mark how many pages, what to look up in the future, just look at the table of contents, no longer need to be like bamboo slips, in order to check For some information, I opened the bamboo slips and searched one by one.

Thinking that these ideas were all proposed by Ye Yang, Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry admired Ye Yang even more.

"The bamboo slips are also convenient to look up!"

Mr. Bai, who has stayed in Han College for more than ten years, remembers the location of all historical records of various dynasties. For him, it must be convenient to look up some history, but for a layman, it is really a blind eye. up.
