Chapter 337 Lu Zhi is shocked!Papermaking + movable type printing, the artifact of promoting enlightenment!
Peiguo, Xiang County.

The main hall of the county government.

Five days later, Qin Hao came back and bowed his hands in the hall, "I don't know, brother Zhengfu, have you ever thought about whether to stand up for the Yuan family's injustice? My generation of nobles and benevolent people is already ready to go, waiting for orders at any time."

Qin Hao had already seen the content of Yuan Zhong's letter to Yuan Huan, so he was almost [-]% sure about this invitation, which is why he spoke so impassionedly.

but
This was not Yuan Zhong's original intention at all, he just wanted to take this opportunity to show his loyalty to His Majesty the Nanyang Emperor, and then use this credit to climb a little higher.

After all, the power of Yuan's descendants in Nanyang Hanting is too weak. Even if he bears the name of family traitor, he must climb higher and let Yuan's clan occupy a place in Nanyang Hanting.

"Brother Zihan."

Yuan Zhong hurriedly bowed, and said softly: "To tell the truth, I have written to the Yuan family's children from Chen Jun to discuss, but until now, there has been no reply. Can we wait for news?"

"Although I am a descendant of the Yuan family in Runan, after all, my status is low and low, and it is difficult to compare with the brothers of the same family in Chen County. If I can find more Yuan's children, maybe the effect will be better."

"kindness."

Qin Hao nodded, and said with a smile on his face: "Brother Zhengfu thinks so, and I am very moved. Then let's wait for a day or two, and when there is news from Brother Yaoqing, we can discuss it later."

"and many more."

Qin Hao stood up just now, and before he could salute and leave, he was interrupted by Yuan Zhong waving his hand: "Yuan never mentioned that he is Brother Yaoqing, how did you know?"

"uh this"

Qin Hao was quick-witted, and explained casually: "Now there are only two brothers of the Yuan family in Nanyang Hanting, Brother Zhengfu and Brother Yaoqing. If I think about it carefully, Brother Zhengfu must be looking for him to discuss, so this Try one or two."

"I see."

Yuan Zhong nodded slowly, but he was more determined in his heart.

The man in front of him must be the assassin sent by Dong Zhuo, he is definitely not a real Yuan family child.

"That's right!"

Yuan Zhong didn't bother to hide it, and tried his best to appease the other party: "I am writing a letter to brother Yaoqing, hoping that he can help to come up with an idea. We either don't do it. If we want to do it, we must make a big splash."

Qin Hao nodded approvingly, and cupped his hands again: "Brother Zhengfu is wise, since this is the case, I will take my leave for the time being and come to visit again in two days."

"it is good!"

Yuan Zhong nodded and sent him out of the county mansion before returning to his home.

Not long after Qin Hao left the county, a servant came up to greet him, and said nervously: "Chief Qin, something is wrong."

Qin Hao walked towards the carriage and frowned: "What happened?"

The boy hurriedly opened the curtain of the car: "The person we placed in Runan was arrested by the school affairs office."

"kindness?"

Qin Hao couldn't help being shocked, and he paused when he got into the carriage: "School Office?"

The boy nodded affirmatively: "That's right! It must be the school office."

"Damn!"

Qin Hao chewed to himself, and frowned, "Did the school office infiltrate Nanyang so quickly? Guo Jia's actions are really fast."

The boy tentatively said: "Chief Qin, do you think it was Yuan Zhong who leaked the secret?"

Qin Hao shook his head: "Probably not. If he leaks the secret, it shouldn't be someone else who suffers, but me. Return quickly, don't hesitate."

The young man promised, and immediately rode his horse and raised his hooves, and left Xiangxian County.

And behind him leaving, a man disappeared from the side and disappeared into the alleyway.

On the outskirts of Xiang County.

tea shop.

During the two days of waiting, bad news continued one after another.

Qin Hao couldn't believe it.

His own assassination was unexpectedly caught one after another, each time the opponent hit with precision, exactly.

In just two days, more than half of the rapes in the direction of Runan were eliminated, and they didn't even have time to react.

"Boss, could it be Yuan Zhong?"

"probably not!"

Qin Hao was still very sure: "I think the school office must have caught the victim, and then quickly cracked it, so as to find the next breakthrough, and attack again with thunder."

"But."

"It can't be Yuan Zhong!"

Qin Hao interrupted with a wave of his hand, affirming and affirming: "He is a descendant of the Yuan family, and we are working hard for the descendants of the Yuan family. He will never betray us, otherwise he will be charged as a traitor to the Yuan family."

"Quickly cut off the connection with the Runan Assassination, absolutely not allowing it to spread to Peiguo, otherwise our hard work here will also be lost."

The voice just fell.

A voice came from outside: "A bowl of tea."

Qin Hao got up hurriedly: "Guest officer, I'll be here later."

At this moment, he was wearing coarse clothes and came out with a kettle in his hand. He saw two strong men in brocade clothes and two swords on the table, which was obviously unusual.

Qin Hao filled up the cooked tea, greeted him with a smile, handed it over, and asked tentatively, "The two of you must be foreigners, right? I have been here for more than a few months, and I have never seen people dressed like you."

"kindness!"

The man in brocade clothes smiled lightly and nodded: "We were ordered to catch the rebels. I heard that there are assassins from Chang'an in Xiang County. The leader is very cunning and good at disguising."

"Oh?"

Although Qin Hao was shocked, his face was still calm: "There is such a thing? We are ordinary people, but we have never heard of it. It is best for the officials to arrest them all to protect the safety of the people of our country."

"Of course, isn't this here?"

The man in brocade clothes turned his head and glanced at the shopkeeper, and said softly, "Will you go with us by yourself, or shall we take you away?"

Qin Hao's expression changed suddenly, and he raised his hand to splash water, but he was interrupted by the man in brocade clothes just as he moved. With a bang, the kettle fell to the side, and hot boiling water gurgled out.

Qin Hao turned around in a hurry, quickly slid out a elixir from his sleeve, and swallowed it in his mouth with lightning speed, but the man in brocade clothes moved faster and put it on the ground directly. The same elixir, stuffed In the entrance, pour tea with gurgling.

"Hmph! Want to commit suicide by taking poison?"

"Stop dreaming!"

"Old Lin, I will leave the rest to you!"

"Do not worry."

*****
Sili, Chang'an.

Prime Minister's House.

Dong Zhuo stared at Li Ru below, and his anger rose into his throat: "Wen You, it's been so long, why is there no movement in the direction of Runan?"

"If you continue to delay like this, spring will begin, and the people of Runan will forget about this matter. Don't you know the truth that soldiers are precious and fast?"

Li Ru looked worried, and hurriedly saluted: "Prime Minister, King Hongnong obviously expected that we would be like this, so he ordered the school affairs office to secretly intervene in Runan, which caught me off guard."

"The assassination arranged by the subordinates in Runan resulted in more than half of the losses, and even spread to Peiguo, Chenjun and other places. Originally, Yuan Zhong and Yuan Huan were going to agree to start an incident, but who would have thought that something like this would happen. "

"Damn!"

Li Ru cursed secretly and gritted his teeth.

Dong Zhuo stared with disbelief on his face: "Even if King Hongnong was prepared, how could he achieve such an effect in such a short period of time? Could there be an informer among us, or Yuan Zhong and Yuan Huan? Leak?"

"This"

Li Ru frowned and shook his head: "Maybe there are informers inside, but it can't be Yuan Zhong and Yuan Huan. After all, they are the children of the Yuan family. Once they act like this, they will definitely bear the reputation of traitors of the Yuan family." .”

"Besides, if it was the Yuan family who made the whistleblower, how could King Hongnong turn a blind eye to such a great contribution? He will definitely take this opportunity to promote the two of them, thereby angering the prime minister and attacking Yuan Kai."

"but unluckily"

Li Ru was extremely sure, and bowed his hands: "King Hongnong didn't act like this."

Dong Zhuo frowned, and nodded slowly: "That makes sense! Could it be that he really has a leaker?"

Li Ru timidly said: "This matter is due to a mistake in the review of the subordinate, and I hope the prime minister will punish it."

"That's it."

Dong Zhuo waved his hand, although he was angry, he didn't punish Li Ru.

After all, Li Ru is the only think tank he can rely on at the moment, how dare he punish him at will: "The matter of Runan is over, but the matter of Xuzhou must be done carefully, and there should be no more mistakes."

Li Ru secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Here."

Dong Zhuo was furious: "The Yuan family don't want to take revenge themselves, so what's the use of me waiting in a hurry? Old man Yuan Wei, I really can swallow this bad breath!"

"This"

Li Ru wanted to correct him, but in the end he didn't open his mouth. He just said vaguely, "Perhaps Yuan Kai is old and doesn't want to fight with King Hongnong anymore. He just wants to save the lives of his people."

Dong Zhuo cursed secretly: "The hatred of exterminating the clan can be endured, how dare you!"

******
Taifu's house.

Holding the letterhead, Yuan Kai let out a long sigh: "If my descendants of the Yuan family can all be like Zhengfu, no matter how the world changes, they will definitely remain invincible."

"Yes."

Yuan Ji on the side nodded.

Even he, when he received Yuan Huan's letter, couldn't help being stunned: "Zhengfu is worthy of his name, he would rather bear the title of traitor of the Yuan family, and still fight for the power of the Yuan family in Nanyang Hanting .”

"admire!"

Yuan Ji sighed from the bottom of his heart, and then said: "Uncle, Yuan Zhong was the Prime Minister of Pei Guo before, and now that he has made such contributions, I'm afraid he should be able to go further?"

Yuan Kai shook his head, his expression uncertain: "Not necessarily, although Zhengfu expresses his heartfelt heart to King Hongnong in this way, but he is only a county magistrate after all, at best he can restore his post, it would be good."

"Moreover, even if the official is reinstated, it will not be realized soon, otherwise the world will think of Zhengfu's relegation to the county magistrate before, and deliberately associate it with suppressing the Yuan family."

"Wouldn't it be self-inflicted?"

Yuan Kai pinched the goatee under his jaw, and kept deducing in his mind: "King Hongnong is famous for his justice and benevolence in Nanyang. He will never promote Zhengfu so quickly."

"However, Zhengfu is very smart. He obviously expected this, so he deliberately handed the letterhead to Guo Jia from Yaoqing in this way."

"If my guess is correct, even if His Majesty does not promote Zhengfu, he will definitely promote Yaoqing, and even after a while, they will all be promoted."

Yuan Ji nodded approvingly: "It's really hard to embarrass Zhengfu and Yaoqing. Nanyang Hanting is obviously jealous of our Yuan family, but they can get promoted in this way and open a way for the Yuan family."

Yuan Kui was very moved: "Yes, it's not in vain that I once taught Zhengfu."

Yuan Ji nodded: "Uncle is really worried about the Yuan family."

Yuan Kai sighed: "This is the duty of the patriarch. The first thing is to ensure the continuation of the whole clan, especially in troubled times. The second is to honor the ancestors, do you understand?"

Yuan Ji nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, uncle, my nephew will remember."

Yuan Kui said softly: "We also have to be prepared to bear Dong Zhuo's thunder and wrath."

Yuan Ji said indifferently: "Dong Zhuo wants to rely on the power of our Yuan family, how dare he kill me and others, at best he just reprimanded him."

"Patriarch—!"

"Patriarch—!"

At this moment, a voice sounded from outside the hall.

Yuan Kai looked up.

But seeing, his servants rushed into the palace and bowed: "Patriarch, news came from Runan that Dong Zhuo'an's assassination in Runan was wiped out by King Hongnong in one fell swoop."

"kindness."

Yuan Kai was not shocked at all, as if all this was a matter of course: "What else?"

The attendant was stunned for a while, but did not understand what the Patriarch meant: "What else?"

Yuan Kui frowned: "Didn't King Hongnong promote Yaoqing?"

"what?"

The attendant was a little confused: "The villain didn't receive the news!"

Yuan Kai would not naively think that it was an omission, he suddenly became nervous: "What about Zhengfu?"

The attendant shook his head: "No!"

"how can that be?"

Yuan Kui couldn't believe it, and asked anxiously: "How did the school affairs government arrest Chang'an's assassination?"

The attendant handed over the letter: "Patriarch, please take a look."

Yuan Kui opened his browsing, and gasped hissingly: "It didn't start from Xiangxian County, but from Runan, and it spread to Xiangxian County in three days!"

"This"

Yuan Ji naturally understood the difference between these two methods: "Patriarch, is it possible that King Hongnong is protecting Zhengfu and Yaoqing? Don't want them to be charged as traitors?"

"Indeed."

"but."

Yuan Kai looked worried and frowned: "King Hongnong has acted like this and given up the strategy of killing people with a knife. He obviously expected that Dong Zhuo would have nothing to do with us, and his real purpose was to suppress Yuan."

"Damn!"

Yuan Kai gritted his teeth, heartbroken.

He couldn't believe that King Hongnong acted like this: "I really underestimated King Hongnong. I'm afraid that from now on, our Yuan family can only rely on political achievements in Nanyang Hanting."

"Even though we handed over the information about Dong Zhuo's assassination, this person didn't give it a chance. He was sure that I would not give up Nanyang Hanting, so he dared to act so boldly."

Yuan Ji frowned, and said sullenly: "It's hard to imagine that the emperors of all dynasties have tried their best to win over the aristocratic families, even Emperor Guangwu was no exception, but who would have thought that King Hongnong would treat us with such disdain!"

Yuan Kai clenched his fists tightly and suppressed his anger: "Even Emperor Guangwu needs to rely on his family to secure his throne. I really don't believe it. King Hongnong can suppress this power?"

"Uncle, we can't go on like this."

"You make me think about it."

*****
Nanyang, Wancheng.

The Emperor's Palace.

Snapper.

Holding the newly compiled book, Liu Bian flipped through it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction: "Anyway, our first draft has come out, so we will use it as a textbook for the preface."

Although this matter was finally completed at the end of winter, it was too late after all. With a trace of guilt on Lu Zhi's face, he bowed to the emperor:
"But Your Majesty, now that the imperial court's power has expanded to Yuzhou and Xuzhou, it may be too late to copy it now. Nanyang can still guarantee it, but Yuzhou and Xuzhou may be delayed."

However.
Liu Bian did not panic at all, and waved his hand: "Don't worry, Lu Qing, I have my own way to complete it, you still follow the previous plan, make sure that Xuzhou and Yuzhou have at least one filial piety teacher!"

Lu Zhi bowed his body and cupped his hands: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the personnel have been arranged, and they can leave at any time, but the matter of this textbook is the most important thing."

"Three days!"

Liu Bian said with great certainty: "Three days later, I will prepare the textbooks for Master Xiaojing, and then you will send someone to the Yutang Hall of the Imperial Palace to pick them up, and you will be guaranteed to have a set of textbooks. As for the extra textbooks, the booksellers will buy and sell them." !"

"what?"

Lu Zhi was surprised, with a look of disbelief.

Although this textbook is only the first edition, it involves a lot of content, and it cannot be completed in a short while.

Even if it is hand-copied, it will never be completed without a month.

How could His Majesty the Emperor solve all the textbooks within three days.

You know, there are thousands of volumes!
"Your Majesty, you."

Lu Zhi stared at the emperor, completely dumbfounded.

"Lu Qing will come along with me, and then I will know."

At that moment, Liu Bian got up slowly, bypassed the dragon case, and turned into the hall.

He waved his hand at Lu Zhi, motioning for him to follow.

Out of the Nuan Pavilion, head west all the way.

Soon.

The two rushed to Tianlu Pavilion.

Today, Tianlu Pavilion was originally the collection place of the imperial palace of the Han Dynasty, but in the Nanyang Emperor's Palace, it became the place where Liu Bian published and printed books.

When the two entered the hall, attendants had already greeted them: "Chen Mu Qing, see Your Majesty."

Liu Bian handed the book in his hand to the other party: "Three thousand volumes, how long will it take?"

Mu Qing took the books, started to browse, roughly judged the quantity, and the prepared movable type molds: "It will take three days."

Lu Zhi was taken aback: "Three thousand volumes can be completed in three days?"

Mu Qing nodded and nodded: "Lu Situ, don't worry, the official is in charge of Tianlu Pavilion's publication, using the movable type printing developed by His Majesty, thousands of copies a day, never talk about it."

"Movable type?"

Lu Zhi was completely confused: "This is."

Without waiting for Mu Qing to explain, Liu Bian waved his hand and said, "Take Lu Situ a tour and you will know, why waste your tongue!"

Mu Qing smiled lightly and bowed: "Here!"

Immediately.

He waved his hand to make a petition: "Lu Situ, this way please."

Liu Bian and Lu Zhi followed Mu Qing's footsteps and turned straight into the inner courtyard.

Look around.

The rooms on both sides are all open.

The wooden boxes are lined up one by one inside, and the top is actually arranged in the form of "Shuowen Jiezi", which contains all the characters inside, and each wooden wedge is very small, probably only as big as a fingernail.

"this is"

The scene in front of me was really spectacular.

Lu Zhi was astonished, his eyes filled with horror.

"Come on!"

Mu Qing said hello, and handed the scrolls in his hand to the visitor: "Quickly divide them, each person is responsible for five pages, and complete a thousand volumes within three days, without any mistakes."

"Here."

Lu Zhi has not yet recovered from his shock.

but see
The man brought the scroll into the main hall, quickly disassembled it, and distributed it according to the page number.

Immediately, in the small grids under the eaves on both sides, the persons in charge immediately began to arrange movable type according to the contents of the books.

They moved very quickly and obviously remembered the position of each word very clearly.

Lu Zhi stepped forward quickly and looked at the wooden box, which was about the size of a piece of paper. Inside, each movable type was filled in order.

Then, cover the paper that has already been cut, and roll it over the paper with a roller. The content of a page is completed in just a few breaths.

Lu Zhi picked up the printed paper, the writing on it was clearly visible, and each character was written in standard official script, and even the spacing was kept very well.

"No wonder."

Lu Zhi suddenly realized, turned his head to look at His Majesty the Emperor, his eyes lit up: "Your Majesty asked me to copy the content in such a grid, so it was for the convenience of printing?"

"That's right!"

Liu Bian nodded affirmatively: "You only need to copy the first edition of the mother book according to the format, and the rest can be printed according to this model."

"This time, Lu Qing should believe that I can complete the publication of the Xiangxu textbooks within three days, right? In the future, we will use this as the standard for all the textbooks of the Dahan Xiangxu before it can be widely promoted."

Lu Zhi's eyes brightened, and there was already a huge wave in his heart at this moment: "Your Majesty has innovated the papermaking technology and developed this movable type printing. It is really an ancient achievement for the promotion of enlightenment!"

Liu Bian smiled lightly, and said softly: "The root of the great chaos in the world lies in the confusion of people's hearts. Therefore, if you want to put the world in order, you must first take people's hearts; and the foundation of people's hearts lies in following the way of heaven, practicing benevolence and righteousness, and maintaining loyalty and filial piety."

"How to follow the way of heaven, practice benevolence and righteousness, and uphold loyalty and filial piety? Naturally, we must promote the teaching of the kingly way. Papermaking and movable type printing are the basis for the promotion of education. These cannot be solved. How to promote the teaching of the kingly way!"

Although His Majesty's words were ordinary, and he didn't take papermaking and movable type printing seriously at all, but Lu Zhi deeply understood the great significance of all this!
Lu Zhi was deeply moved and became even more convinced that the emperor in front of him was the one who could truly help the world and rebuild the world. He finally found the meaning of life in his later years!
"Don't worry, Your Majesty!"

Lu Zhi bowed deeply without hesitation, and said from the bottom of his heart: "I will do my best to help His Majesty, promote the kingly way and enlighten the people, and rebuild the prosperous world."

Liu Bian helped Lu Zhi up with his own hands: "Of course! My vision is absolutely unmistakable. With the help of loyal ministers who sincerely and sincerely serve to educate the people of the world, within ten years, the world will surely be brought into order!"

Lu Zhi glanced at the busy figure in Tianlu Pavilion, feeling very excited, and his hanging heart was completely relieved: "Your Majesty, the subject is at ease, so I will take my leave and go back to prepare for other things."

Liu Bian nodded: "Go, remember to send someone to Yutangdian to collect the textbooks in three days."

Lu Zhi cupped his hands: "Here."

Looking at the back of Lu Zhi turning away, the netizens in the live broadcast room became excited again:
"Haha! See, Lu Zhi is completely stupid."

"This kind of cross-age thing is not stupid."

"Lu Zhi's blood has been beaten, and the primary and secondary schools must be fine."

"I hope that the Han people can enjoy the nine-year compulsory education like us."

"Tests! Exams are a must! Destroy them to death!"
