Chapter 202: The Novelist
Yun Xi sent them to draft the decree, and while he went to the side hall, he was still thinking about the word Jianye. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Then he remembered that the era name of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui was 'Daye', which was very similar to this era name.
After thinking about it deeply, Emperor Yang of Sui is very similar to himself! Zhu Yuanzhang has accumulated a large number of family businesses, and Emperor Wen of Sui has also accumulated a large number of family businesses; He is the second generation of monarchs, and Emperor Yang of Sui is also the second generation of monarchs; The most important thing is that if he wants to make a contribution, Emperor Yang of Sui also has great ambitions.
I won't become the second Emperor Yang of Sui, right?
Yun Xi immediately reminded himself in his heart: to carry out reforms and expand the territory, we must do what we can, and we must not be in a hurry.
Yun Xi, who had returned from resting in the side hall, did not wait for his auxiliary ministers to speak, and ordered: "Xu Xiaohui, paste this on the wall on the side of my table." ”
Several auxiliary officers looked at the rice paper to be pasted on the wall, and when they were finished, they saw that it was written: ".
Storm Zhao praised: "Your Majesty Shengming." "It turned out that after they knew that Yunxi's era name was Jianye, they immediately realized that it was similar to Emperor Yang of Sui's era name 'Daye'.
Although just the similarity of the era name does not mean that the emperor's actions are the same, they still plan to advise Yunxi. Now that Yunxi himself has written such a couplet to remind himself, they don't have to advise anymore.
Yun Xi said: "Ladies and gentlemen, if there is anything wrong with my decree, you must advise me and don't have to worry about it. After several Aiqing go back, they will also inform the other ministers. As long as the counsel is not selfish, even if what is said is wrong, I will not sin anyone! Although Yun Xi was still humble, he still left a back door.
However, even if the several auxiliary ministers present noticed Yunxi's back door, they didn't feel that there was anything wrong, Confucianism was originally selfless.
The afternoon is still the same as yesterday.
=====================================================
Fujian Jianyang, located in the north of Fujian Province, at the southern foot of Wuyi Mountain, also known as Tancheng, is the place where the most books and books are printed in the southeast since the Song Gaozong crossed to the south, and it is still the most important place to publish books in the Ming Dynasty.
But the storytellings that are now popular among the city's storytellers are not published here. In a tile market in the middle of the city, hundreds of people gathered to listen to the same storyteller talking about the story, and from time to time there was a sound of applause, and the sound of copper coins falling on the ground "bang".
I only heard the storyteller say: "But it is said that Yuan Shao's army was defeated and ran, and he was frustrated because he was imprisoned, and he couldn't get out in a hurry, so he was captured by Cao Jun and captured Cao Cao." ……。 Cao ordered the attack on Jizhou. Exactly: the weak is only because there are many wins, but the strong soldiers are the widows and die. I don't know how to win or lose, and let's break it down below. ”
Then the storyteller said, "It's getting late today, so that's it." Tomorrow at noon, the villain will continue to say to the big officials. "And then they shook it. After that, he squatted on the ground and picked up all the money from the guest officer, and then retired from the backstage.
At this time, it was already the end of the day, and the big guys had to get up early to work tomorrow, so they all retreated. There were two people in long robes, who looked like they were not working people, but they were not in a hurry to go back, but paced slowly, chatting as they went.
One of them said: "This "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", I also saw it when Robben took it, it is indeed a good book, but if it is engraved and reprinted, now there are not so many idlers in this Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that it will not be able to recover the capital." The storyteller said that no matter how much he earned, that is, the first few storytellers gave him some money, and who would give him money after that? ”
"I didn't expect Robben to be able to find a human seal, and there are many storytellers who tell stories, all of which have been passed on to Jianyang. A few days ago, Chen Jiulin, who came from the capital, took the book of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the printing handwriting is clear, and it is clearly printed with copper movable type. ”
He is a well-known bookseller in Jianyang City, and he can calculate what kind of seal to use at once.
The other person smiled and said: "Brother Wang Fu, you really dare to think, who can dare to print this book with the copper movable type of Ouchi." ”
Wang Fu smiled: "I also think it's whimsical." But Brother Wu, where did you get all these copper movable characters? ”
"If you make your own copper movable type, I am afraid that you will not be able to recover the cost if you sell tens of thousands of copies, and now I heard Chen Jiulin say that only a few hundred copies are sold in the north and south of the river, and many people are renting books in stores to see. This amount of sales is that the engraving plate cannot recover the capital. It's weird. ”
The two of them walked all the way, and it took a long time to return to their residence.
As soon as they arrived at the residence, a servant came over to the two of them and said, "Master, Mr. Wu, someone is looking for Mr. Wu!" ”
Mr. Wu, whose name is Wu Yuchao, asked, "Who is looking for me?" Is it Li Yun? Li Yun is another big bookseller in Jianyang County, and Wu Yuchao is a well-known writer of scripts and scripts in the southeast, so he has this question.
The man said: "Mr. Wu, it's not Mr. Li's person, but he speaks with a Beijing accent and looks like a soldier." ”
"Capital accent, a soldier?" Wu Yuchao groaned and said, "I don't recognize such a person? ”
Wang Fu said: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, and you will know what it means when you go in and see it." The two of them then went into the house.
In the residence, Yun Xi's personal guard Zhao Min was sitting. He was sent out to find Luo Guanzhong's friend in the first place. A total of eight people were dispatched, six of them were in Hangzhou and one in Jiujiang, and only he ran the farthest.
When he arrived in the local area, because he had a foreign accent, everyone didn't agree with him to tell the truth, and he finally had to show the certificate he used to live in the post station, and only then did he find out where Wu Yuchao lived after looking for the local catcher.
He sat on the chair and closed his eyes for a while, when he heard the footsteps of three people, and hurriedly opened his eyes, and saw two other people walking in besides the previous subordinates.
The first man looked to be in his thirties, broad-faced, and somewhat fat, which is rare: the latter was about fifty years old, old-complexion, and quite thin.
Zhao Min remembered Luo Guanzhong's words before leaving: "My friends are all fifty or sixty years old and not very good. I immediately guessed that the person behind me was Luo Guanzhong's friend Wu Yuchao.
Zhao Min immediately said to the latter person: "This old gentleman in the back, but Wu Yuchao? Mr. Wu"
Wu Yuchao said: "It's the grass people, I don't know why Your Excellency is looking for me?" He saw that this man looked like a man in the face of an official, so he called himself a grass man.
Zhao Min said: "It's not a secret, I am a hereditary officer of the direct guard in the capital. There are nobles who like to watch operas and scripts, so they not only treat Mr. Luo Guanzhong preferentially, but also ask Mr. Luo Guanzhong to write to his friends. As he spoke, he took out Luo Guanzhong's handwritten letter and said, "This is Mr. Luo Guanzhong's handwritten letter to Mr. ”
Wu Yuchao trembled and took the letter handed by Zhao Min, opened it and looked at it, and then said in a trembling voice: "It is indeed Luo Guanzhong's handwritten letter." ”
Zhao Min said: "Your Highness, oh no, the nobles still want to take you gentlemen who are good at writing scripts and drama scripts to the capital." It was also written in the letter. ”
Zhao Min secretly sighed that it was a fluke. I am used to calling His Highness, so it was His Highness that I accidentally called out just now, and if it was His Majesty, it would be bad, fortunately, fortunately.
Wang Fu and Wu Yuchao glanced at each other: Your Highness! The person who likes to watch dramas and scripts, and treats Luo Guanzhong preferentially is His Royal Highness! It's something you can never think of again.
Wu Yuchao trembled with excitement again, and Wang Fu looked at Wu Yuchao with complicated eyes, just like a scholar who found that his studies were far inferior to his own, but he did not cheat after getting a perfect score in the exam.
It took Wu Yuchao a long time to calm down, and then said, "This,"
Zhao Min immediately said: "Zhao Baihu." ”
"Zhao Baihu, it's getting late today, let's set off again tomorrow." Wu Yuchao said.
Zhao Min promised: "Yes, take a night's rest today, and set off tomorrow to go to the capital." ”
======================================================
The next day, the 29th, was another ordinary day with nothing unexpected. However, it is a happy day for Yun Xi, because the excerpts accumulated some time ago have finally been dealt with.
Yun Xi finished answering the last fold and stretched out. Then he looked at the four auxiliary officers who were all sitting in his seats, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have some things to deal with today, so please go back today." ”
At this time, the officials of the Ming Dynasty were not the civil officials and doctors who had to take care of everything later, and when they heard Yun Xi say this, Zhang Wen was the first to bow and leave.
Storm Zhao originally wanted to ask, but Zhang Wen, who was ranked before him, bowed and retired, and he didn't want to ask again, so he withdrew.
Guo Zhen and Zhuo Jing didn't know what Yun Xi wanted to do, because Yun Xi didn't mean to leave them and retreated.
Yun Xi waited for them to retreat, went to the dormitory to change into clothes for going out, and asked Wang Xi to send someone to call the guards to gather at Qianqing Gate, and he wanted to leave the palace.
Yang Feng was very surprised when he received the order to leave the palace. Since returning from the ancestral tomb, Yun Xi has not left the palace.
However, he was only surprised for a moment, and then immediately beckoned the guards to come to the Qianqing Gate.
When he arrived, Yun Xi was already sitting in the shade near the Qianqing Gate, drinking tea and waiting.
Yang Feng immediately saluted and said, "I've seen Your Majesty." The minister is late, please forgive your majesty. ”
Yun Xi said: "You are not late, I am coming soon." Then Yun Xi looked at Yang Feng and said, "You haven't prepared a guard of honor?" ”
Yang Feng said: "Your Majesty is not a micro-service travel? ”
Yun Xi smiled and said, "I want to travel with honor today, not a micro-service. ”
Yang Feng felt that he had made a joke, because Yun Xi had always traveled in micro-clothes before, and had never used a guard of honor, so Yang Feng subconsciously did not let him prepare a guard of honor. Yang Feng was deeply aware of the fact that after becoming the emperor, Yun Xi's style of doing things was very different from before.
Then I looked for a guard of honor. By the time everything is ready, it's almost unitary time. Yun Xi looked at the sky, because it was dark late in the summer, so the sky was still very bright.
Yun Xi got into the car, and Yang Feng asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going?" ”
"Where are the monks and Taoist priests who I ordered to come to the capital located?"
"There are not so many places for monks and Taoist divisions, so they are placed in the hall of the main and guest department of the Ministry of Rites."
"Then go to the Fan Pavilion."
