"Old Liu, Jing came here hoping to find some young people to work for the newspaper." Ji Chenjing briefly explained the purpose of his visit.

"At home!" Mrs. Liu's performance was beyond Ji Chenjing's expectation, she grabbed Ji Chenjing's arm excitedly, "At home, why didn't the new paper reserve a share for Taixue?"

Ji Chenjing froze for a moment, then realized, "Where did Mr. Liu hear the news?"

"Because the imperial court distributed blank paper to every yamen. Now everyone is discussing it!" Elder Liu stomped his feet on crutches, and said angrily, "Tai Xue is a sacred place for reading, why didn't the imperial court provide us with new paper? But the group of craftsmen in the Shaofu used it first."

"This... because they are studying how to improve papermaking technology..." Ji Chenjing wiped off his sweat.

Elder Liu frowned, skipping this point, "At home, when will Taixue be able to supply paper?"

"This..." Ji Chenjing faltered, "It depends on the imperial court's arrangement. The output of new paper is relatively low, so the yamen that needs it is given priority." Regarding this academic leader, Ji Chenjing found that he couldn't be tough at all. .

"Isn't Taixue important?" Old Scholar Liu leaned heavily on the ground and asked forcefully.

Seeing that the crown prince was confused by the question, Yan Cong took the initiative to step forward and said, "Master Liu, the paper workshop in the East Palace has been requisitioned by His Majesty." Her calm voice directly interrupted Mr. Liu's thoughts.

Seeing that Mrs. Liu had calmed down, Yan Cong continued, "However, this morning, His Majesty has handed over the paper mill to the imperial court. The new paper hoarded in it has been emptied by the yamen after hearing the news. The dossiers need to be copied, they are fed up with the thick bamboo slips."

Yan Cong's voice was very calm.

"The Taishi yamen, Qintianjian, Sijing Bureau, Chongwenguan and other yamen joined together and distributed half of the new paper from the Ministry of Industry."

Elder Liu's old face twitched slightly, and his expression was strange.

Yan Cong's calm voice continued, "The Hanlin Academy, who came a step late this morning, came crying in front of His Majesty, His Majesty was so annoying that he asked them to come to the East Palace.

The new paper kept by Zhan Shi's mansion was also taken away, and there was no new paper in the family, so Mrs. Liu didn't have to think about it. "

Her mind was punctured, and Mrs. Liu was not ashamed, "Then when will the imperial court provide new papers from Taixue?" She panted and sat back on the couch.

The emotional performance just now was quite tiring.

"The imperial court has started to build a new workshop on the basis of confidentiality. It will take at least half a month..." Ji Chenjing finally reacted and replied.

"How long will it take?" Mrs. Liu said anxiously with wide-eyed eyes.

"Because there is not enough new paper for the six parts, not to mention the Dali Temple, Taichang Temple, Honglu Temple and other yamen, the Wucheng Bingma Division, the Inspection Department, and even the Northern and Southern Armies, including the palace, all need new paper. "Yan Cong said one by one, "In addition, it is expected that some will be sent to the royal family of Zhao, Chu, and Yin, so half a year's production may have been booked. If you want to use it openly, I'm afraid you will get it next year."

If your lord is going to urge His Majesty, the first batch of papers from Taixue will probably arrive this month.But the next batch...may have to wait slowly. "

Mrs. Liu was speechless, and she couldn't help but said, "Is there no other way?" The image of her in Ji Chenjing's eyes before was an old man with white hair, a kind face, and clear eyes.

At this time, like a haggling merchant, he began to bargain with Yan Cong.

Yan Cong shook his head resolutely, "It is absolutely impossible for the imperial court to leak the technology of new paper within two or three years, so..."

"I see." Elder Liu waved his hand feebly.

She knew that with her own power, she would definitely not be able to change the court's thinking.Although she is highly respected, it is even more difficult for such things as fame to influence the imperial court's policies.

But...someone can.

She looked at Ji Chenjing again, "The family can promise to the old minister whether this new paper can be spread quickly. This is something that can change the world of scholars like me! I don't know how many smart children there are, because there is no money to buy it. paper, and miss the book..."

"I will, I will try my best." Ji Chenjing could only say so.

"Newspaper office? What is this?" He skipped the question of grabbing resources.Elder Liu has regained his image as a respected and kind elder.

"It's a channel to master the mouthpiece of the world." Ji Chenjing gestured, and then explained carefully.

Mrs. Liu fell into deep thought, and it took her a while to realize, "People are old and useless." She sighed, "It sounds like this newspaper is very useful, but... it can really make people like it See? You know, most of the people are illiterate." She keenly grasped the real difficulty.

"So I designed two newspapers, one is Daqi Daily, which is devoted to matters related to government affairs, such as the birthday of the Queen Mother, appointment of cabinet ministers, transfer of officials, foreign policy, vassal states, etc. From a perspective, to let the people know about such things. It will also publish the ministers of the court, their understanding of certain policies and the like. I am going to leave it to the courtiers to contribute and express their opinions at the end.

These newspapers cater exclusively to those interested in national affairs. "

"The other one is Daqi Minbao, which will publish Qin Tianjian's forecast of seasonal weather to guide farming. It will publish some trivial matters of parents, such as a certain Wang sister who was arrested for beating someone in the street, or a team of boar chops Jump into the river in a team and so on."

Mrs. Liu was taken aback by what she said, and it took a long time to realize, "It sounds good." Then she subconsciously stomped on her crutches, "Can the minister express his opinion on it?"

Ji Chenjing's complexion was subtle, she nodded and said, "That's right."

"Please be sure to leave a place for the old minister."

"Jing dare not follow orders." Ji Chenjing held back a smile and said solemnly.It can only be said that he is indeed an old man who is obsessed with officialdom, and he immediately discovered a new way of tearing.

"The Jia Zi She is full of excellent young people. The family can go there to see if there are any suitable talents." Mrs. Liu finally did not forget the business, she suggested. "The old minister should have accompanied the family in person, but since the family invited Mu Yide away, the trivial things of the Taixue have made the old minister and the doctor's attendants exhausted, so they can't entertain the family. Wangjia No wonder."

Facing the old man's resentful gaze, Ji Chenjing withdrew in embarrassment.

"Mu Yide?" Ji Chenjing looked at her in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Mu Yide said with a bitter face, "At home, those ancestors are too difficult to take care of. The building of this medical school must be the strongest and cleanest, and there are so many requirements. The folk workers recruited by the veterans are already tired of it." In order to coordinate them, the minister almost exploded his head."

"Oh, come on then." Looking at her shiny face, Ji Chenjing couldn't believe her words. "Don't say I left alone."

"Hey at home! In fact, they asked me to come and ask at home, can they buy the new paper?" Mu Yide looked relaxed, and it seemed that he was indeed forced to come here.During this period of time, she was doing well, although she was sad not to receive bribes.

The guys in the doctor's house are all misers, but in some places they are unexpectedly prodigal.

"You don't know, when they asked Chen, their eyeballs were all green, like starving ghosts..." Mu Yide described the appearance of the doctors' gang with dancing and spitting.

"Unfortunately, no." Ji Chenjing shrugged, "In order to grab new papers, the court is almost out of its wits."

"If Zhan Shifu hadn't stopped him this morning, those fellows from the Imperial Academy would have rushed into the Palace of Junmian to find Gu with their green eyes..." Thinking of this, Ji Chenjing still had lingering fears.

It was rare to take a rest today, she slept late, and was almost terrified when she opened her eyes.In the end, she had to hand them the stack of paper she used as a sample, and then the group of guys came back victorious with their sleeves waving...

In the morning, Si Muli and the others looked like dead fish, with an innocent look like I didn't have fresh paper in my hands.

Mu Yide nodded understandingly, "Every year when the Ministry of Accounts allocates funds, it always looks like this. In front of the Holy Majesty in the Golden Palace, you can choke your neck and fight..."

"Gu didn't watch politics at that time, but he didn't see this scene."

"Minister, leave." Mu Yide said with interest when he saw the carriage approaching.

Seeing Mu Yide leave, a Simuli poked his head out, "Why so long?"

"Boss Liu and the doctor came to find Gu and asked for new paper." Ji Chenjing climbed into the carriage and said.

"Oh." Si Muli shut up immediately, she wouldn't spit out the duck that was full of her mouth.

……

"At home, what is a newspaper office? Do you have any requirements?"

Jiazishe happened to be in class, and Ji Chenjing talked to the lecturer a few words, and immediately recruited this group of students.

It is unbelievable for the Taixue students that the prince asked them to do business.They were still in a state of excitement, and a small man with a round face asked with sparkling eyes.

Ji Chenjing looked at the round-faced little student, and said with a smile, "Yes, but first, I want to introduce the current situation.

newspaper.It is a new yamen with independent funds and merit examination system, which is currently in charge of Gu. "

Ji Chenjing stood on the podium and looked back, feeling uncomfortable without the blackboard.She waved her ruler and said, "And what Gu needs you to do is to express Gu's thoughts in words."

The lecturer didn't leave either. She stood aside and watched the scene playfully.

"Now, two topics are isolated. Use your language to describe one thing.

The first question, Emperor Yin visited some time ago, met with the Queen Mother, and expressed his willingness to cooperate.

The second question, the old Wang next door hooked up with the husband of the old Li next door, but was beaten by the old Li next door and sent to the hospital.

Key words are easy to understand, free from rhetoric, smooth and eye-catching, and catch people's attention. "

"The format," Ji Chenjing touched his head, distressed.It's so annoying without a blackboard! "It's the title, the text."

There were 20 people in Jiashe, and they looked at the prince dumbfounded.The first question is better, the second question...

Are you really playing us?

"What? Is there a problem?" Ji Chenjing asked.

"Yes, how should we write it!" A student with a thin face asked.Her question was echoed by everyone.

"That's your problem. You need to use your language to write those two things in the newspaper and tell the people. You can extend the length and increase the interest through proper processing and guessing..." As for whether this world will appear UC shocked the department, and Ji Chenjing said it didn't matter.

Seeing the distressed faces of the people below, Ji Chenjing said nonchalantly, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. After the results are made, the cabinet will discuss the allocation of ministers for the newspaper. I don't want to say how high they are, but the officials will directly Bestow..." The corners of her mouth curled up, and she knocked on the table, "So, please work hard..."

The dazed people below burst into 12 enthusiasm in an instant, looking at the new paper brought by the prince on their table with burning eyes, as if they were watching a beautiful man lying there naked.

After reading everything, Smulli asked softly, "Are you sure? I think those people are staring at the newspaper papers you intercepted, and they wish you could fail."

"Sure?" Ji Chenjing smiled and said, "Yes, not many." She tapped the wall with a ruler, and said casually, "Maybe the eighth or ninth floor."

Smulley: "..."

……

"This is Daqi's Taixue?" A carefree woman in rich clothes stood at the entrance of the Taixue with her guards.

"Yes, His Royal Highness King Yanjin." It was the young minister of Honglu Temple who answered her.

As a Shaoqing, but accompanied the same person to visit Taixue, then the identity of this person...

"It's indeed bigger than my country of Yan..." The woman smiled, "I just don't know what happened to the people inside..." She said maliciously, "At the last Four Kingdoms Tea Party, the Daqi scholars didn't even seem to be in the top four. go up."

Shaoqing of Honglu Temple twitched his face, and kept telling himself to be calm, this King Yan is the emperor's distinguished guest, and he can't beat him.

So she took a deep breath and said with a stiff face, "Please."

The woman in the fancy dress laughed lightly, unable to speak out her arrogance and malice.

……

"Why hold the Four Kingdoms Tea Party in advance?" Ji Qisu was puzzled. "What do you think about closing the building?"

Gong Yuqing looked at the letter in her hand and had a guess in her heart. Although it was absurd, she felt that this might be Fenglou's real thoughts. "Maybe, she just wants to see you sooner. After all, the Four Kingdoms Tea Party is also held in Hua Ge, so she can justifiably bring the ministers here...well, to play for several months."

"Impossible. How could she be so silly..." Ji Qisu vetoed it without even thinking about it, "It seems that she has great confidence in this four-nation tea party?" Ji Qisu's face was strange, and he felt baffled.

Gong Yuqing smiled, "It's better to do it earlier, anyway, the time is about the same. It's too hot next summer, so it's better to do it earlier."

"But at this time, many people will not be in a hurry." Ji Qisu said calmly.

"Then let's put it after the New Year's Day, just in time for a lively Shangyuan Festival." Gong Yuqing said with a smile.

"...It's fine." Ji Qisu pondered for a while and said, "Why...you agreed?" She asked suspiciously.

Gong Yuqing was taken aback, and quickly shook her head, "I just think this idea is pretty good..." Seeing that Ji Qisu still had the same expression, she couldn't help but smiled wryly, "I don't want to go back so early, Si Linyun should have already arrived at the third assistant's place , it will be here in two days."

Hearing what she said, Ji Qi Su believed it.

Gong Yuqing could only smile wryly, could she say that she was too stupid back then?What is easily obtained will never be cherished.Like Feng Lou, Ji Qisu has never forgotten her until now, even during the time when Si Linyun was there, he kept writing letters, unlike himself, who was directly forgotten to a corner of the world.

She didn't even believe that Fenglou would play tricks for her, but her own statement was easily accepted.

"Yun'er is coming back too..." Ji Qisu had a bit of a headache, although she didn't want to care about the fight between them at all, but in the midst of it, it was impossible not to be affected at all, that's why she allowed Si Linyun to isolate One of the reasons for the other two.

The harem is so troublesome, so after having Xiao Shi, she didn't bother to go there.but now……

"What the hell is Yan Guo up to lately? I don't know what the King of Yan wants to do with me?" This matter also gave her a headache.

"King Yan?" Gong Yuqing thought for a while, "He is a ruthless character, Asu, be careful."

"Huh? I remember that Emperor Yan was a refined and gentle woman..."

The corners of Gong Yuqing's mouth twitched, and he explained, "You know, although Yan Guo obeys my instructions on the surface, but...they have great ambitions."

"Emperor Yan..." What else did Ji Qisu say.

"Emperor Yan is dead." Gong Yuqing said.

"What?" Ji Qisu's eyes widened in surprise, "I haven't paid attention to the affairs of the other countries for a year, and Emperor Yan died? Isn't she only 29?" She has been busy dealing with Yunguo this year The things there, the placement of Yunguo and the rewards from the frontline generals.

Hearing the regret in Ji Qisu's words, as well as the age she blurted out, Gong Yuqing couldn't help turning cold, "Yes, she died. Her young daughter has succeeded..."

"Oh." Ji Qisu's eyes flickered, and the pity he felt for Emperor Yan was immediately forgotten.

Familiar with Ji Qisu's temperament, Gong Yuqing continued with a cold face, "But the state affairs of the Yan Kingdom are in the hands of King Yan, and the young emperor has no power."

"The favored prince?" Ji Qisu had some thoughts about the intention of this King Yan.

She smiled mockingly, "But since she loves to travel, let her play. I would like to see what she wants to do?"

However, Gong Yuqing was suffering in her heart. Yin's control over the countries is limited, and only a few small countries are really obedient to Yin's orders.Other countries have their own selfishness, which is also the reason why the monarchs of the Yin Dynasty were distressed.

They also wanted to learn from Qi Chu, but... without those small countries, Yin couldn't stand at all.They are caught in an endless loop...

The status of Yan State is very special. Her national strength is not as good as Yin's, but her military strength has opened up a big gap between Yin and Yin.

In the past few years, they have also been wooing the small countries, as if they were digging the foundation of Yin.Part of the reason why Gong Yuqing came to Qi was to show Yan, making them mistakenly think that Yin and Qi have a good relationship, and even Zhaochu can be brought along.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. If it weren't for these reasons, she would not be able to convince the cabinet and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Thinking about it, Zhaochu is probably the same.As long as you want, you can always find a high-sounding reason.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation fell into silence, and the two were thinking about their own thoughts.

……

"This is your Jiashe?" A haughty and disdainful voice sounded outside the door.
