His Majesty is a sick beauty

Chapter 17 Papermaking

=================

The official position system of the Yu Dynasty was quite similar to that of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. The prime minister or Sikong with the greatest power was held by Murong Che.Underneath, there are Dazai, Taifu, Taibao, Taiwei, Situ, Sikong, Da Sima, Dajun, and they are also called Bagong.Generals such as hussars and chariots and Doctor Guanglu are called Conggongs.

The literary conference was held for five days, and six of them received all the evaluations of A. Su Xun waved his hand and ordered those six people to directly work in the Ministry of Education. You must know that this is in charge of drafting edicts and planning state affairs. Even though these six people were from great families, they were envious of others that they were able to enter the Ministry of Education as soon as they took office.

The rest, also based on their final ranking scores, have positions in the central government.

This makes the last point, because the saying that the literary society only focuses on knowledge and not on appearance disappears.

He used a lot of official posts to block the mouths of those aristocratic families, but Su Xun knew that this was just the first step in his implementation of the imperial examination system. The aristocratic families were greedy, but he didn't have so many official posts to fill their stomachs. The road will only get worse and worse.

But fortunately...

Su Xun opened a sandalwood box in front of him, inside were a few pieces of yellowed thin paper.

These papers are dark yellow and fragile, but in Su Xun's eyes they are more beautiful than a box of pearls.And on the other side of his table, there were neat white papers.

There is actually paper in this era, and this discovery surprised Su Xun for a moment.However, he soon realized that the so-called "paper" of this era was quite different from the paper in his consciousness.

The paper at this time was made from silk and other things, also known as silk floss. The paper was white and delicate, but the price was comparable to that of silk books.

In Su Xun's original world, there was Cai Lun who improved papermaking in the Eastern Han Dynasty.Using bark, hemp heads, rags, old fishing nets, etc. as raw materials to make paper, and improving the papermaking process, paper is no longer a luxury handed down in the aristocratic family, and it is truly accessible to poor students.

The little eunuch on the side lowered his head cautiously, not daring to look directly at Tianyan.But he still felt in his heart that the yellow and black object held between His Majesty's slender and white fingers was really an eyesore. You must know that all the decorations and utensils in His Majesty's study are exquisite products made by everyone. Has such a vulgar thing appeared before His Majesty?

But this thing was indeed made by His Majesty's order, so even if the little eunuch thought it was ugly, he didn't dare to say a word.

Just when he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard the little emperor's clear and sweet voice sounding like a jade ring: "Order the craftsman to try a new ratio. The paper should be bigger and thicker. The color of the paper should also be made more vivid." Bai Bai, don’t be afraid of failure and spending money, try more.”

Since the papermaking started, the money in the little emperor's treasury has flowed out like running water. Fortunately, the first batch of distilled liquor has been produced, and the balance of payments can be considered.

Shaking his head, Su Xun no longer thought about Baijiu, he said to the waiter, "Call...Zhou Han to me."

Zhou Han wore the government office of the Ministry of Education, and followed the guidance of the little eunuch towards the imperial study.

Summoned alone by His Majesty, Zhou Han still looked calm and indifferent, which made the servant who led the way for him secretly satisfied. He felt that he was worthy of being a son of the Zhou family who had won all the first grades in the Wenhui.

But only Zhou Han himself knew how nervous he was.

As soon as he rose to the top, the elders and friends of the family congratulated him one after another. Zhou Han also felt that his ten years of hard study was not in vain, and he was deeply grateful for the great grace of the emperor. Then he was able to enter Shangshutai.

But at the Luming Banquet at the end of the Wenhui, it was also the first time when Zhou Han saw the "beautiful" little emperor at such a close distance, even the people closest to him didn't notice it, and he was excited at that moment He almost knocked over the wine glass in his hand.

At that time, the little emperor was wearing a black and red two-color dress, with a golden jade belt on his slender waist, which was particularly eye-catching.

The little emperor looked at these students with a smile, and personally wrote down their articles and words, and ordered people to carve stone tablets to encourage future generations.

His Majesty's eyes at that time seemed to be filled with stars, oceans, mountains and rivers, making it hard to forget at a glance.Zhou Han believed that when the little emperor got up to encourage the students, even though he knew that this was just a regular drama of the Wenhui, he was overwhelmed by that look.

"Master Zhou, we're here."

"Thank you father-in-law."

Concentrating his thoughts, Zhou Han thanked the little eunuch who led the way, and walked into the imperial study.

"Hiss—lighten!"

There was a soft and coquettish cry, and then another more mature male voice said helplessly: "The slave is already very light."

Zhou Han was startled, forgot the etiquette for a while, and looked up directly.

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor was wearing a misty rain-colored uniform, curled up on a chair, his eyes were red, and round tears kept falling down. He seemed to be extremely wronged, and sniffed softly, While pulling the hem of his shirt, revealing a pair of white and tender feet.

Squatting in front of him was a man in dark blue clothes, holding a light green ointment, first carefully softening and warming it in his palm, and then covering the little emperor's ankle and rubbing it gently.

It was only then that Zhou Han noticed that His Majesty's ankle was red and swollen, which was very obvious on the entire jade-like skin.

The man clearly heard the sound of him coming in, but he didn't intend to stop at all. He just softened the ointment into the little emperor's skin bit by bit, and only slowly got up after confirming that the delicate skin would not turn blue. To the person behind.

Xiao Buwen!

Those upturned bewitching eyes, with gloomy and hostile gaze, who else is it if it's not Xiao Buwen?

In his memory, Xiao Buwen was a poisonous snake in the imperial palace of the Yu Dynasty. Once it was touched by his gaze, it would be skinned even if it was not dead.The cold prison he was in charge of was filled with wailing sounds day and night, and even the hardest-hearted jailer would not be able to stay there for more than a year before he would go completely insane.

But it was this rumored insidious Xiao Buwen who took pleasure in torturing people, but knelt down in front of the little emperor, applying medicine to His Majesty with a gesture more gentle than flowers.

Seemingly aware of his gaze, Xiao Buwen looked sideways slightly and glanced at him with a smile.

Zhou Han's whole body stiffened immediately, and he felt like a rabbit being stared at by jackals for a moment, trembling all over, and there was only endless fear in his heart.

Xiao Buwen just glanced at it, and lost interest in the brat in front of him.

He also knew about the literary meeting held by the little emperor a few days ago, and even further, his subordinates had already collected all the information of the people at the literary meeting and put it on his desktop.

After cleaning his hands, he handed the amber pine nuts to the little emperor who was still in tears as a comfort.

The little emperor was a little sluggish at first, but when he saw the sweet fragrance in front of him, his eyes immediately lit up.

Xiao Buwen looked not surprised, picked up the silver fork and fed the amber pine nuts to the little emperor.It may be that his body's instinctive desire to survive makes him seize the time to store calories when he is not sick. The little emperor is greedy, especially likes to eat sweets. Since the last dinner, Eunuch Xiao seemed to suddenly feel the joy of feeding the little emperor. Send sweets to the palace at both ends.

And today, Xiao Buwen was also counting the time, the little emperor reckoned that he had just drank a few bowls of bitter medicine and was drinking tea and rinsing his mouth in aggrieved manner, so he brought some snacks and entered the palace.

Although his nourishing medicine was improved by the national teacher himself, as long as it is medicine, it will not be delicious, and Qinghe has long expected that with the little emperor's cat-like appetite, he drank a few bowls I'm afraid I'll be full from the medicine, and if I eat some snacks, I won't have to eat for a day, so I simply waved my hand and banned the little emperor's pastries.

Xiao Buwen had also heard about this matter, so this time he brought a small snack that didn't take up space, and by the way, explained to him about the baijiu business.

As soon as Su Xun heard that Eunuch Xiao had contacted the aristocratic family in the Gu Shuo court, the other party agreed to exchange food with them for fine wine.The first voice will be available this month. Su Xun stands up excitedly when he thinks that the empty treasury will soon be filled with a large amount of golden rice...

His toes hit the table legs.

The soreness rushed straight into his head, Su Xun just opened his mouth to explain, but the voice he made was hoarse and nasal, and a few tears slid down his cheeks.

Thinking of Xiao Buwen's indescribably delicate expression at that time, Su Xun wanted to bury his head in the ground.

What a shame!

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, the little emperor curled up on the chair and rubbed his ankles.Xiao Buwen seemed to have noticed Zhou Han who had already stood aside a little bit stiffly.

"Your Majesty, Lord Zhou is here."

Su Xun: Huh?

As soon as he looked up, he saw Zhou Han staring at the floor with his head down, as if a flower could bloom on it, but just by the way his nervous hands and feet didn't know where to put them, Su Xun knew that he was The embarrassing scene just now was not uncommonly seen by this person.

What is social death?This is social death!

Su Xun was heartbroken, pretending nothing happened before, and said pleasantly, "Qing Qing is here!"

That's right, Zhou Han, whose name is Qingqing, Su Xun was a little embarrassed when he saw this name, thinking that when he read this word, he felt like a Taobao customer service.

When Zhou Han heard the little emperor calling his name in a clear and pleasant voice, he raised his head subconsciously, but he was stunned.

I saw the little emperor's misty rain-colored long robe fluttering gently, and the golden peony hollow belt wrapped around his slender waist, like a golden flower blooming in it.The little emperor had cried just now, and there were still red marks at the end of his eyes, not to mention a coquettish look.

Zhou Han didn't know what he was thinking, just watched the little emperor welcome towards him...

... Then he was picked up by Eunuch Xiao on the way.
