Chapter XVII, Imperial Discussions

The next day, the sky was just dawning, Zhang Mingxuan was still immersed in sleep, the whole city had not yet woken up, and the early dynasty had already begun in the palace.

"If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!"

"Minister, there is a book!" a minister with a long beard and a jade wat in his hand stepped forward and bowed deeply.

Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair and said majestically: "Say!"

"Your Majesty, there has been a kind of legendary story in the capital recently, the content of which is absurd, and the words and sentences are written in the vernacular, and the words and sentences are made up of contemptuous sentences, such as the sludge at the bottom of the river and the dregs of the wine pond. This is an insult to the article and a blasphemy against the sages! I ask Your Majesty to list this book as a banned book, close the bookstore, put the author in prison, and confiscate and burn the books. The minister said impassionedly and indignantly.

"You fart~" Before Li Shimin could speak, Cheng Yanjin jumped out and shouted.

To put it bluntly, isn't this just talking about "Zhu Xian"? I like this legend very much! It's banned, so where can I look at it later?

The minister couldn't help but flash a trace of fear in Cheng Yanjin's eyes when he saw it, but he didn't know what he thought, so he still said impassionedly: "Lord Cheng, please don't use foul language in the hall." ”

Cheng Yanjin saw that Li Shimin did not speak out against it, and immediately understood the thoughts of this king, who has been a monarch for decades, and there is still a tacit understanding here.

Cheng Biting Jin said with a smile: "Lord Wang, I said that you are a dignified imperial historian, and you don't go to picket hundreds of officials, but go to deal with a small legendary novel in the market, isn't it too dereliction of duty! I heard that Lord Liu chartered a flower boat for a night yesterday! Don't you know?"

"Nonsense! You surnamed Cheng slander people. An old man over half a hundred years old hurriedly jumped out, three points angry and seven points panicked, pointing at Cheng Yanjin and shouting.

Cheng Biting Jin picked at his nose, flicked it at Lord Liu, and said contemptuously: "Is it not, you know it yourself." How old are you, and you're still looking for a little girl, the other party is not as old as your daughter!"

"You... You..."Lord Liu stretched out his fingers and pointed at Cheng Biting Jin tremblingly, but he didn't come up in one breath, his face was flushed, and his eyes rolled and he fell directly.

Li Shimin said lightly: "Come on, pull him down, Lord Liu is old, let's say goodbye to the old man and return to his hometown!"

There was a crisp sound of golden armor, two guards in armor and guns walked up, one of them pulled one of Lord Liu's legs and dragged him out directly, passing by the steps of the main hall, you can hear a dull sound, it is estimated that the head is mounted on the steps.

Cheng Yanjin looked around with contempt, and almost shouted: "Who else!"

The problem is that you stabbed the wrong knife! The opponent is Lord Wang! What is the use of getting Lord Liu down? Is this just sitting in a closed house and disaster coming from heaven? Or is it killing chickens and making an example of monkeys?

Lord Wang ignored Cheng Biting Jin and said directly to Li Shimin: "The minister has heard that this book has entered the harem, and all the princesses and princesses may come into contact with this book. ”

"Lord Wang's words are a little thin!" said a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby smile on his face.

Wang Yushi's eyes shrank, if Cheng Biting Jin made him afraid, this person made him frightened, one was a mountain and forest tiger, and the other was a jungle snake. Although tigers also eat people, they can also be avoided, and everyone can work together to hunt tigers. Once the poisonous snake attacks, there is no way to avoid it, there is no escape, and no matter how many accomplices there are, it is difficult to rescue. Compared to the tiger, the venomous snake is the real terrifying killer.

Wang Yushi swallowed his saliva silently and said, "Long... What do you have to say about the Prime Minister of the Eldest Sun?"

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled kindly and said: "Don't you dare to be a teacher, the book you said is Zhu Xian!"

Wang Yushi nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Wang Yushi replied while quietly coloring a few officials, but those officials were all standing on jade wats, and their eyes, noses, noses, and hearts seemed to have not noticed Wang Yushi's movements at all.

Wang Yushi scolded secretly.

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled: "I have read this book, and I have to say that what Wang Yushi said is reasonable, and the writing is really not flattering." ”

Wang Yushi's heart was a little calm, and he said secretly: "Could it be that the eldest grandson Wuji is here to support me, and that's right! He is also worried that this book will stain the prince's heart!"

Wang Yushi smiled: "Does the prime minister also agree with my point of view?"

Wang Yushi glanced at Cheng Yanjin proudly.

Eldest Sun Wuji smiled and said: "If Wang Yushi really reads this book carefully, he will find that the things in this book are still very useful, such as this punctuation mark. ”

Wang Yushi shook his head and said: "I know the punctuation, the so-called book is read a hundred times, and its meaning is self-revealed. As long as you read the book carefully, punctuation doesn't make much difference. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said, "I have encountered some lawsuits that I can't decide, and I ask Lord Wang for advice." ”

Wang Yushi hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare!"

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Lord Wang, listen up, this is a suicide note!"

Wang Yushi's heart trembled, does the suicide note mean something?

"Sixty years old, born a son, people say that it is not my son, and the family property and farm are paid, and the son-in-law and outsiders must not argue. May I ask who is the family property?"

Wang Yushi tasted it in his heart, is it really a suicide note, and there is no other meaning?

Wang Yushi said confidently: "This case is easy! Sixty years old man gives birth to a son/People say that it is not my son/The family property is paid and the son-in-law / Outsiders must not dispute." The inheritance is Angelica's son-in-law, and the suicide note has been written clearly. ”

Many ministers nodded and smiled in agreement.

Cheng Yanjin also muttered: "I know what is wrong with the eldest grandson and old boy." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile: "Sixty years old son gives birth to a son/People say wrong/It's my son/The family property is paid/Son-in-law and outsiders can't argue." ”

Wang Yushi's color changed, the ministers were all stunned, and Li Shimin was also stunned and fell into deep thought.

The eldest grandson Wuji continued to ask, "I still have a family letter here, do you want to listen to it?"

"Say!" This time it was not Wang Yushi who spoke, but Li Shimin on the dragon chair.

The eldest grandson Wuji held the jade wat and bowed to Li Shimin and said: "The minister obeys the order! The life of the child is so painful, there is no food at all, there is more sickness, and he earns a lot of money. ”

With the previous example, the ministers quickly understood the two meanings of this sentence.

"My son's life is miserable/No food at all/More sickness/Less money. ”

"My son's life is good/There is no pain at all/There is more food/There is less sickness/I earn a lot of money. ”

The same sentence, because of the difference in the broken sentence, is completely two meanings.

Li Shimin was silent for a while and said, "Are there many such things?"

The eldest grandson Wuji replied: "Many, not only that. There are also some officials who deliberately misinterpret the orders issued by the central authorities in order to make huge profits. ”

"Hmph!" Li Shimin's face darkened, and he snorted angrily: "All deserve to die!"

The eldest grandson Wuji and other officials stood in front of them with jade wat and bowed silently.

Li Shimin said: "Punctuation marks will be implemented throughout the country, and all books will be marked with punctuation marks in the future, and the government decree will be marked with punctuation marks, so that the sentences must be clear and the meaning is clear." This matter will be handed over to the eldest grandson Wuji. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji bowed and said: "The minister's decree!"
