"Master, someone from Wuhou Mansion just said that a group of children defecated in front of our house a few days ago, but those children never showed up again, and the people from Wuhou Mansion didn't do anything either. They gave us new clues. Then, go find them again!”
Imperial Medical Office.
After these two days of care, Cui Shanyou's face improved a lot and was no longer as pale as before. When he heard this, he couldn't help but look angry and said angrily:
"This is unreasonable! What is this? How dare you do something so perfunctory! These Wuhous are simply lawless! Ahem~!"
"Hey! Master, don't get excited! Calm down! Calm down!"
Mrs. Cui quickly put down the decoction in her hand, walked quickly behind Cui Shanyou, patted her husband's back gently, and spoke urgently to persuade him.
"Cough cough~ cough cough~! I understand!"
Cui Shanyou coughed violently several times before his mood gradually calmed down. He said with difficulty: "I understand! General Youwu Houwei is Yuchi Jingde, and the relationship between Li Zexuan and Yuchi Jingde~~~, haha~~! These people are blatantly engaging in malpractice for personal gain! I will definitely write a letter of impeachment! Ahem!"
"Master, calm down! We don't have any evidence, so why should we impeach you? You'd better recover from your illness first! Dr. Zheng and the others are still waiting for you to get better!"
Mrs. Cui said helplessly.
"Well, help me get up!"
Cui Shanyou was stunned and suddenly said.
"Master, what are you going to do again?"
"Hurry and help me get up, I'll write a letter! You can help me send it to Honglu Temple later!"
Cui Shanyou frowned and said impatiently.

"Newspapers are being sold! Newspapers are being sold! The freshly released "Datang Daily"! Today's headlines: The unparalleled genius is about to appear in Fantastic Culture! Together with the power of twelve academicians, we can help me, a young man from the Tang Dynasty, learn to read easily!"
The next morning.
The sound of newsboys selling newspapers resounded throughout the streets and alleys. Ma Zhou had engaged in "favoritism" once. This time, he directly placed the "Datang Dictionary" advertisement he produced yesterday on the front page. He was arrogant, arrogant and domineering. The advertisement directly attracted the attention of a large number of people in Chang'an.
"Oh~? There is such a powerful book in the world?"
"I don't know if it's expensive? If it's not expensive, I can buy a copy to help my baby learn to read!"
“Books on interesting culture shouldn’t be expensive!”
"Wouldn't it be better to buy a newspaper and come over and read it? Then, little kid, can you give me a newspaper?"
………………
Of course, since ancient times, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. This arrogant and domineering advertising slogan inevitably aroused dissatisfaction among literati.
"A little-known book actually dares to claim to be a masterpiece. What a big statement!"
"Yes! I'm not afraid of the wind blowing my tongue!"
"Even if it was compiled by twelve academics, do you dare to claim that it is a masterpiece? What a shameless statement!"
"Yes, yes! Let's go to Funny Culture to see who the clown is out to make people laugh!"
"Let's see what the newspaper says first! Come on, bring me a copy of Datang Daily!"
"Yes, give me a copy too!"
………………
Controversy, in a matter of seconds, the advertising slogan of "Datang Dictionary" set off a huge wave of controversy among literati. On the other hand, this also slightly increased the sales of "Datang Daily" in disguise.
However, as newspapers gradually entered people's lives, Li Zexuan no longer cared much about the sales of "Datang Daily". The last time he asked Ma Zhou about the sales of newspapers was half a month ago. At that time, the sales volume of a single issue was It has reached a terrifying 400,000 copies.
Therefore, Datang Daily has already got rid of the loss-making and money-burning model, and has also brought in very considerable profits.
"Datang Dictionary? Pinyin~? What is this?"
A scholar couldn't help but frown and asked after reading today's headlines.
"Look at the meaning of this news. This "Datang Dictionary" should be a reference book that annotates all Chinese characters. It looks a bit like "Shuowen Jiezi"?"
"And this pinyin, is it really so magical that it can teach people to read and pronounce? Why have I never heard of it before?"
A short and fat scribe asked his friend next to him.
"Hmm~! I don't think so! The newspaper must be bragging!"
The man shook his head and curled his lips.
"Master, what are they talking about?"
Not far away, next to a small stall selling cooking cakes, a peasant woman in gray clothes asked while rolling out dough.
"Hey! The newspaper seller just said that Qiqi Culture has published a book that teaches people how to read. I guess those scholars are talking about it!"
The black-faced man chuckled.
Having said that, his hand did not stop flipping the cakes in the pot, perfectly demonstrating what it meant to do two things at once.
"Fantastic Culture? Isn't that a bookstore run by a man from Li County? Boss, do you think we should also buy a book for our dog to learn how to read?"
The woman in gray suddenly asked excitedly.
"Hmm~! That's right! Books about Qiqi culture are always cheap. This book can also teach people how to read, so buy it! Damn you bitch, stop working here, I'm here alone, you go to Qiqi Take a look at Culture to see if there are any for sale! There will definitely be a lot of people grabbing it! If you can grab it, buy a copy for me, too. It’s much cheaper than asking Mr.
The black-faced man wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and waved his hand.
"Can you, the head of the house, do it alone?"
The woman in gray was quite moved, but still hesitated.
"Nonsense! Of course! Just go!"
The black-faced man waved his hand impatiently.
"Then...I'm going to be the boss!"

"Hey~! Brother Liao, are you eating while reading the newspaper?"
West Market, a breakfast shop.
A lean middle-aged man walked in, saw Liao Xifan having breakfast, and stepped forward to say hello.
"Oh~~! Brother Zhang! Haha! Isn't this Brother Feng who went to sea with the imperial fleet a few days ago? It's not interesting for Liao to eat alone, just read today's "Datang Daily"."
Liao Xifan raised his head and smiled.
"Ha! That's it! But, brother Liao, didn't you also build several big ships? Why didn't you go to sea with us?"
The man named Zhang ordered a bowl of porridge and a basket of steamed buns from the shopkeeper, sat across from Liao Xifan, and asked.
"Alas! Liao's old arms and legs often have problems. Brother Feng is much better than me, so I won't mess around with you. I just send a housekeeper to follow!"
Liao Xifan sighed and explained.
In fact, these are all excuses. The main reason is that this guy is used to living a rich life and is afraid of death!
"Oh, Brother Liao did the right thing. The sea is too bumpy and it's really frustrating! Eh~? Brother Liao, look!"
"Don't Touch Me, the latest generation of carriages developed by Qiquge, is officially on sale today. It has large space, fast speed, and absolutely no bumps. The top ten will enjoy a special price, only 999 coins!!! This... What kind of carriage is this? It’s so expensive?”
