marquis of jingan

Chapter 184 Promotion of Di Bao

Shen Yi was locked up, but not completely locked up.

Because no one was actually watching him at the door, he could still go out if he wanted to.

However, when it comes to the imperial court, Shen Yi is still relatively cautious. Except for the first day when he bought a lot of vegetables and came back, he basically never goes out at other times. Lou borrowed two books.

After reading the two books, he became a little bored, so he began to write his own thesis.

In this way, Shen Yi locked himself in the courtyard for four days, and on this day, His Majesty the Emperor in the Deqing Palace called the newly appointed Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites to the palace, and handed him a newly printed residence newspaper.

The content of the mansion report is not critical, what is important is the emperor's order.

What His Majesty the Emperor meant was that the imperial court would create a new Mansion Reporting Department, nominally under the name of the Ministry of Rites and Rites, but in fact, half of the palace and the Ministry of Rites would send half of the staff to take care of the mansion's affairs.

As the name suggests, the Mansion News Agency is responsible for creating, printing and distributing mansion newspapers, from the capital of Jiankang to the provinces of Dachen.

The two servants of the Ministry of Rituals were both recruited by the emperor, and the current two ministers were just promoted, so they naturally bowed to the emperor, so soon the Dibao Division under the Ministry of Rites was formally established.

Because the emperor attached great importance to this matter, on the day when the Dibao Division was established, the eunuch Gao Ming came to the scene in person, and brought [-] copies of the newly printed Dibao, and ordered the officials of the Dibao Division to pass through the official post immediately. , Distributed to the prefectural schools and county schools of each province and prefecture and county, it must be at least one chapter for each county school.

The county school is where scholars go to school.

As for scholars, they are generally representatives of local intellectuals, and if they can spread in the county school, this mansion newspaper can naturally spread rapidly.

In addition to promoting the newspapers through the "student-official system", the newspaper department will also distribute these newspapers to bookstores in various places for sale. The price is not very expensive, and the newspaper department only charges a cost price.

All in all, it is vigorously promoted by the imperial court.

As Jiankang is the current capital of Chen State, the mansion newspaper is naturally in sufficient supply. The first batch of mansion newspapers printed by the mansion newspaper department left a full [-] copies in Jiankang, some of which were sent to the Guozijian, and most of them were scattered. Go to the major bookstores in the capital and sell them for ten coins.

This price is not very low, but in this era of expensive books, it is not very high. In addition, the people in Jiankang have strong spending power, high literacy rate, and are full of curiosity about the affairs of the court. On the day it was released, more than 1000 copies were sold.

These more than 1000 residence newspapers were quickly circulated in Jiankang.

The front page of the Di newspaper has a very conspicuous headline.

"Emperor Beihu is in a hurry to marry a daughter..."

Such a conspicuous title will naturally be noticed by the Qi people in Jiankang City, so, on the afternoon of the day when the residence newspaper was released, four or five copies of the residence newspaper were sent to the guild hall of the Ministry of Rites. The group's current residence.

Zhu Huai, the servant of the Ministry of Rites of the State of Qi, who is still in the guild hall, soon got a residence newspaper. Zhu Huai is proficient in Han etiquette, and has read the books of sages and sages since he was a child. Home", after receiving the mansion newspaper, he only glanced at it briefly, and when he saw the conspicuous title, the face of the Minister of Rites changed slightly.

After he took a deep breath, he continued to look down. After reading a mansion report, the face of the Minister of Rites of the Northern Qi Dynasty became a little dignified.

Zhu Shilang took this mansion newspaper and left the guild hall of the Ministry of Rites. Accompanied by several Qi people, he came to the gate of a house in Jiankang City. This house was the residence arranged by the Ministry of Rites of Jiankang for Princess Izumo of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Zhu Shilang stepped forward, looked at the two Qiren guards at the gate of the house, and said in a deep voice: "Go and report, just say that Zhu wants to see the princess."

The servants quickly reported that Zhu Huai also entered the house quickly and smoothly, and called Princess Izumo in the backyard of the house.

At this moment, Princess Izumo's face was very ugly.

If you look closely, you can see that she is ashamed and annoyed.

Zhu Shilang is naturally an old Jianghu. Seeing her like this, he knew that his princess probably already knew about the Nanchao mansion report. He sighed, bowed his head to Princess Izumo and said, "Your Highness."

Princess Izumo let out a long breath, and said, "I wish you no need to be polite."

Although she has the title of princess now, she is actually only the niece of the Northern Qi emperor, the princess of a royal palace in Northern Qi. Although her background is indeed noble, she is far inferior to a minister of rites in terms of actual status and power.

Therefore, she had to be more polite to Zhu Shilang.

To put it bluntly, as long as Zhu Huai is willing, she can be thrown in Jiankang at any time, making her unable to return to Yandu for the rest of her life!

After all, Zhu Huai, the Minister of Rites, is also in charge of foreign affairs.

Zhu Shilang lowered his head slightly and said, "Princess, it seems that you already know something."

"Is there something about the mansion?"

Princess Izumo sat on her seat, bit her lip, lowered her head, and said in a bitter voice: "The southerners humiliate me even more, I will not have sex with them!"

What really annoyed Princess Izumo was not entirely because Chen Guo's mansion newspaper insulted people, but because what was written in Chen Guo's mansion newspaper could be said to be true.

She had indeed been stranded in Jiankang for more than half a year, and there was no way to deny this.

However, although the content of the mansion newspaper is fine, its title and tone are all slightly mocking, which makes Princess Izumo look extremely annoyed.

Zhu Shilang also bowed his head, with anger in his tone.

"The Southern Dynasty has indeed become a little crazy. A few days ago, Zhu Mou went to see the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty and asked him to severely punish the criminal who offended the princess. As a result, two days ago, the Southern Dynasty court said that there was a mistake in the Ministry of Rites, and removed two servants of the Ministry of Rites. Did not touch the villain who offended the princess!"

"Now, to openly write these articles insulting my emperor and the princess in the mansion newspaper, and publish them to the world, is really deceiving people too much!"

Zhu Shilang bowed his head and said: "Princess, don't worry, Zhu Mou will go to the Ministry of Rites of Chen Guo today, and it is best to meet the emperor of Chen Guo again. My emperor knows that the court of the Southern Dynasty bullied the princess, so he will definitely vent his anger on the princess..."

Princess Izumo's eyes lit up, she looked at Zhu Huai, and her tone was a little eager: "Mr. Zhu, can you take me back to Yandu together?"

Zhu Huai was silent for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "Princess, I'm really sorry, Your Majesty didn't ask me to take you back before coming."

There was a little regret in Zhu Shilang's eyes, he bowed his head slightly and said: "But don't worry, I will tell His Majesty the truth about the matter of Jiankang City, and when His Majesty is really angry, the whole Jiankang will shake three times, that The little emperor of the Southern Dynasty will definitely not dare to neglect the princess again..."

Princess Izumo bit her lip again, she looked at Zhu Huai, and said in a low voice: "The Minister Zhu is on business, so I won't make things difficult for the Minister Zhu, it's just..."

Princess Izumo gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "It's just that the person who wrote this article must trouble Zhu Shilang to find him. After I find this person, I must let him see the demeanor of our people! "

Zhu Huai hesitated for a moment, then bowed his head and agreed.

"Princess, don't worry, after finding out the news, I wish someone to send it to the princess immediately..."
