The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

208 False high definition

After dinner, the Fourth Prince took Zhao Yao for a walk in the yard.

After walking and eating, the fourth prince began to teach Zhao Yao how to learn Li's characters.

Although Li's characters look strange, they are easier to write than the current characters.Besides, the Li family characters evolved from the current characters, which are easy to recognize and not difficult to learn.

After learning for an hour, Zhao Yao knew a lot of Li family characters.

Seeing that Zhao Yao learned quickly, the fourth prince was very happy.

"Fourth brother, the Li family characters are not difficult, but the Li family characters are so strange and ugly." Zhao Yao still thinks that the simplified characters in Zhao Yao's world in his dream look good.

The fourth prince smiled and said: "It is indeed strange and ugly, so there is no rumor about the Li family name, only the Li family knows it."

"Fourth brother, I think the Li family characters should be a unique code of the Li family, not counted as characters." Zhao Yao looked at the weird Li family characters he wrote just now, and said with a smile, "People who don't know the Li family characters You'll think it's some ghost drawing."

"You are right, this is the secret code of the Li family."

Speaking of codes, Zhao Yao suddenly thought of Morse Code.

Morse code is more like a code than Lijiazi, and people can communicate through Morse code in the future.

Seeing Zhao Yao frowning, the Fourth Prince asked, "What's wrong?"

"Fourth brother, besides the Li family, do other families have their own scripts?"

"It used to exist, but now it doesn't exist anymore." The fourth prince said, "Since the writing of the same text, no one used the previous characters, and gradually disappeared. The reason why the Li family characters can still be used today is because the Li family must learn from the Li family. characters, and the Li family must copy books in Li family characters every year."

Zhao Yao looked surprised: "Why is it so stipulated?"

"Because the Li family wants to pass on the knowledge they know and the books they have obtained from generation to generation, and these will always be the foundation of the Li family." The fourth prince said softly, "If one day, someone robs all the books in the Li family, they And I don’t know the Li family’s collection of books.”

"But isn't the Li family hiding a lot of original books that are alone?"

"The Li family hides these original books in a very secret place." The fourth prince said, "The Li family will not let these orphan copies be lost or snatched away."

Hearing what the fourth prince said, Zhao Yao finally understood why the Li family collected books.

"It turns out that the Li family created their own characters because of this."

"The ancestors of the Li family were very prescient. These years, the Li family has more books than the Kong family."

"Does the Confucius family have their own characters?"

When the fourth prince heard Zhao Yao's question, he couldn't help but chuckled: "My silly tenth brother, most of the characters we learn now are created by the Kong family."

"Ah?" Zhao Yao was surprised when he knew this kind of thing for the first time, "So that's how it is."

"Many books we read now are compiled by the Kong family." The fourth prince was amused by Zhao Yao's stunned appearance, "In this regard, the Li family is not as good as the Kong family."

"But, fourth brother, didn't your grandfathers teach in Taixue?" Zhao Yao pretended to be innocent and said, "Isn't the Li family better than the Kong family in this regard, and the Kong family didn't teach in Taixue. "Speaking of which, when Grandpa Huang first established Taixue, he only invited Li's family to teach, but he didn't let Kong's family go to teach in Taixue.So far, none of the gentlemen in Taixue came from the Kong family.

The Confucian family had its own academy, and the Confucian family only studied in their own academies, and it was impossible to study in Taixue.In fact, many members of Kong's family wanted to study in the Taixue, but they did not dare to violate the rules of the clan and go to the Taixue to study.

"The Kong family has their own academy, and they look down on Taixue."

The Kong family and the Li family are friendly on the surface, but in fact they are competing with each other secretly, neither one looks down on the other, and neither accepts the other.

When the Li family was in the previous dynasty, it was not as good as the Kong family.However, in the Great Zhou, the status and influence of the Li family was higher than that of the Kong family.For the past twenty years, Kong Taichang's family has been trying to compare Li's family, but unfortunately they failed.

The Kong family secretly blamed the Li family, saying that the Li family was a lackey of the royal family, who only trained officials for the royal family, and did not do well in literature.

The Li family thought the Kong family was funny. Back then, the Patriarch of the Kong family violated the ancestral precepts and not only supported the concubine King Yun to seize the heir, but also disregarded human life and did a lot of unreasonable things for King Yun.Compared with their Li family, their Kong family is more like lackeys.

The Kong family was so disgusted by the Li family that they couldn't refute it even if they wanted to refute it.Although the Patriarch of the previous dynasty had been expelled from the Kong family, the Patriarch back then was the genuine Kong family.

The Patriarch of the previous dynasty will always be the pain in the hearts of the Kong family and the shame of their Kong family.As long as this Patriarch is mentioned, the Kong family will not be able to lift their heads.

When Zhao Yao found out that his fourth brother mentioned the Kong family, a look of disdain flashed across his eyes.

"Ah, Taixue is the highest school in Dazhou, many people can't get in, why do the Kong family look down on Taixue." Zhao Yao pouted dissatisfiedly, "If you have the ability, the Kong family can get into Taixue."

"The Confucian family disdains taking the imperial examination."

"I don't think so." Zhao Yao said, "The Kong family definitely wants to enter the Taixue, but the Taixue doesn't want the Kong family."

"The Confucian family is noble and looks down on imperial education."

"Fake Qing Gao, I think the Kong family must also want to be an official." Zhao Yao pouted and said, "Scholars who don't want to be an official, and then glorify their ancestors. Those who say they are not interested in being an official are actually fake Qing Gao, because they want to be an official. You can't be an official."

The fourth prince was a little surprised, he didn't expect the tenth brother to understand this matter.

"How do you know that the Kong family wants to be an official?"

"Fourth brother, who in this world doesn't want to be an official." Zhao Yao felt that he was underestimated. He stared at the fourth prince and said, "The ancestors of the Kong family still want to be an official, otherwise how can they lobby around. The Kong family If they don’t want to be officials, then they should stay in their hometown and teach.”

The fourth prince smiled and said: "It seems that you have been studying with Mr. Xiao well during these days."

"That's not true." Zhao Yao smiled smugly, "By the way, these people are called fame and fame. Fourth brother, am I right?"

"Yes, what you said is very correct." The fourth prince praised Zhao Yao, "The word "charging for fame" is very good." There are indeed many people in the Kong family who are "charging for fame". "During this period of time, I have made great progress in my studies. I must continue to study hard with Mr. Xiao."

"Fourth brother, I can't study hard every day, but I will study hard every few days." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "I can't bear to study hard every day. But every few days is fine." Good reading, I can still."

"You, how can you bargain for reading."

"Anyway, I don't like to study every day." Zhao Yao said with a puffy face, "Besides, I'm not smart at reading, so if I study hard every day, I won't be able to bear it."

Listening to Zhao Yao's self-knowledge, the Fourth Prince smiled helplessly and dotingly at Zhao Yao: "Then you should study hard every few days."

"Fourth brother, it's getting late, I'm going back first." Zhao Yao stood up and said to the fourth prince, "Fourth brother, I will come to you tomorrow and continue to learn Li's characters."

"it is good."

"Learning Li's characters is really fun." Zhao Yao waved to the fourth prince, and immediately left Xingde Palace with Tong Xi.

He originally wanted to say hello to the Eighth Prince, but seeing that it was getting late, he had no choice but to give up.Besides, I can see myna tomorrow morning.

Zhao Yao hummed the song of Zhao Yao's world in his dream, and bounced back to Kunde Palace.

Seeing that her son had finally returned, Liang Zhaoyi hurriedly asked him what he was doing at Shangfangling after school in the afternoon.

"I'm going to improve paper." Zhao Yao said, "I suggest that they put some things like bamboo, mulberry bark, and rattan bark when making paper. The paper made from these things will be very good."

"Really?" Liang Zhaoyi said expectantly, "Then I'll wait."

"When it's done, you will be surprised, Concubine Mu."

Liang Zhaoyi remembered something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, Eunuch Han of Shang Fangling personally sent some clay. What do you want clay for?"

"Be a baby." Zhao Yao said mysteriously, "Concubine Mu, I still have things to do, so I'm going to the study first." After speaking, he ran to the study in a hurry.

Liang Zhaoyi asked Tong Xi, "What is he going to do?"

Tong Xi shook his head and said, "Your Highness didn't tell your slaves."

"Mysterious."

"Your Majesty, the things His Highness made must be extraordinary, just wait." Tong Xi thought of the two iron rings His Highness made before.At that time, he still thought that the two iron rings were useless, but he didn't expect that the two iron rings were of great use.From then on, he never dared to underestimate what His Highness made.

"Okay, then I'll wait." Liang Zhaoyi smiled softly, "I won't bother him."

As soon as Zhao Yao returned to the study, he wrote out the contents of movable type printing in his mind.

If he wanted to make movable type printing, he had to make "words".First make the clay into embryos with the same specifications, then engrave characters on them, and then burn them hard.When waiting for printing, brush the ink directly.

Zhao Yao took a quill pen and drew the embryo made of clay, muttering in his mouth: "There are a lot of characters to be carved, and I don't know how many characters there are now."

"It doesn't matter, first let Shang Fangling engrave all the characters that are usually used, so that it will be much more convenient when printing."

After a while, Tong Xi came in with ginseng soup.

"Your Highness, it's getting late, you should take a bath and rest. But you have to drink this bowl of ginseng soup first."

"I'm fine, why do I still need to drink ginseng soup?"

"This is nourishing soup. Your body still needs nourishment." Tong Xi coaxed, "This is ginseng specially prepared by His Royal Highness for you. If you don't drink it, you will be sorry for His Highness's kindness."

"That's right, hundreds of years of ginseng." Zhao Yao said, took the ginseng soup, and drank it in a big gulp.

Tong Xi glanced at the painting on the table and asked curiously, "Your Highness, what is this painting, a word?"

"Secret, you will know when Shang Fangling makes what I drew." After Zhao Yao finished drinking the ginseng soup, he went to the side hall next door to take a bath.

The next day, after school at noon, Zhao Yao did not go to Lanyuan Pavilion, but returned to Kunde Hall.

Eunuch Han sent an eunuch who was good at carving to Kunde Hall, named Xiaofengzi.

Xiaofengzi was waiting at the gate of Wende Hall before noon.

Zhao Yao took Xiao Fengzi back to the Kunde Palace, and immediately handed Xiao Fengzi what he drew yesterday, and told Xiao Fengzi his request.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, this servant will definitely get all the characters out according to your request."

"Get out a few words first, and show them to me." Zhao Yao solemnly explained again, "Remember, you must make the specifications of these words exactly the same, otherwise it will be useless even if you get them out."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Then trouble you."

Hearing this, Xiao Fengzi said with a frightened expression, "Your Highness, you are being serious."

"Then you go back first, and come to me after you make it." Zhao Yao smiled and said to Xiao Fengzi, "If you do well, I have a reward for you."

When Xiaofengzi heard this, his expression became very excited; "Your Highness, this servant must do a good job!"

　The second watch is here.
