"Anyone who offends us and strengthens Qin will be punished no matter how far away he is.
How dare you say it! "
Meng Yi glanced at Zhao Hao with a complicated expression, and then the corner of his mouth raised a bit of sadness, as if he had let go of something that had been bothering him for a long time.
And next to him.
Zheng Guo looked at the sentence on the paper seriously, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
At this time, Wang Wan took a deep breath, looked at Zhao Hao with a smile, and began to observe the writing effect on the paper.
The 'white paper and black characters' were indeed brighter than the writing on bamboo slips, and from an aesthetic point of view, he felt an indescribable fondness for it from the bottom of his heart.
"This ink has been soaked in the paper, and it is not easy to fade away." Shi Lu looked at it very seriously. He nodded and gave a high evaluation: "Such a soft paper is not only easy to write on, but also easy to collect. It is indeed a sacred weapon of the country. !”
"How's the yield?"
Qiong on the other side looked at Zhao Hao curiously.
But Zhao Hao didn't know either, so he looked at Zhang Cang and Wang Li.
The two of them were excited about the words written by Zhao Hao, when they suddenly heard the words and realized what they were saying.
"Sir, one thousand." Zhang Cang cupped his hands and said.
"A thousand?" Wang Wan said thoughtfully: "If it's a thousand pieces of paper every month, that would be good."
"No, old prime minister, it's a thousand a day." Wang Li corrected.
"What?" Meng Yi looked at the piece of paper in surprise, his eyelids twitching: "Doesn't that mean that dozens of classics can be copied every day?"
"this"
Wang Li scratched his head hesitantly. He really hadn't thought about this, so he said uncertainly: "It should be okay."
"."
Wang Wan and Meng Yi looked at each other with complicated expressions.
And Lao Zheng Guo also knew the significance of copying dozens of classics every day.
He looked at the black and white words on the piece of paper with even more admiration, then raised his head, looked at Zhao Hao with a smile and said: "I wonder how to save it after writing it?"
Zhao Hao thought for a while and said: "It would be best if we use bamboo slips and string them through them to make a 'thread-bound book', but the current paper is too big and very inconvenient, so after the ink is dry, it can be folded up." Can!"
After saying this, he casually stood the paper up and folded it into a 'pleat', just like a memorial in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
“It’s really easy to collect!”
Wang Wan stroked his beard and marveled.
Although he still couldn't imagine what a 'thread-bound book' would look like, this folding method gave him the most intuitive feeling of convenience.
So he showed a satisfied smile, then turned to look at Meng Yi and Zheng Guo: "What do you two think?"
"I want to take the paper in the hands of the young master back to the palace to report to His Majesty. I wonder what the young master wants?" Meng Yi said.
"Your Majesty, please do as you please!"
Zhao Hao chuckled, handed the paper to Meng Yi, and watched him leave the workshop.
At this moment, Zhang Cang suddenly smiled and saluted Wang Wan: "Old Prime Minister, why not try the writing effect on this paper? Let's see how you feel?"
"Hahaha, okay!"
Wang Wan raised his head and smiled. He seemed to be in a good mood and happily agreed to Zhang Cang's invitation.
Zhao Hao glanced at Zhang Cang and thought to himself that this guy really knows how to behave, no wonder he is qualified for the post of Jiuqing Shaofu.
I saw Wang Wan imitating Zhao Hao, smoothing out the paper, and then writing the four characters "Guotai Minan".
After finishing writing, he picked up his pen and said with emotion: "The writing on this paper is not as obscure as the writing on the bamboo slips. Instead, it is very smooth. Hmm, it feels like flowing clouds and flowing water."
"Haha, the key is that the characters are written well!" Zhao Hao praised with a smile.
In terms of calligraphy, although Wang Wan is not as good as famous calligraphers like Li Si and Zhao Gao, he is still more confident than Zhao Hao, so he doesn't feel anything wrong when he hears Zhao Hao's praise.
"Lao Ling, do you want to try too?"
Wang Wan looked at what he had written for a while, and then thought of Zheng Guo beside him, so he encouraged him to write a few words with interest.
Zheng Guo had been eager to try it for a long time. When he heard Wang Wan's words, he took the pen and wrote the four words "Success will come when conditions are ripe".
"Your Majesty's expectations for Lao Ling are contained in these four words. Lao Ling really lived up to your Majesty's expectations!"
Wang Wan smiled and nodded.
At this moment, Zhang Cang stood up again, bowed to the two of them and said, "I wonder if the two ministers can give it to me?"
"Um?"
Wang Wan and Zheng Guo were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled.
So Zhang Cang asked someone to take the paper away, and specifically asked it to be hung in the main hall of the mansion.
Zhao Hao took a deep look at Zhang Cang again and felt that this guy could not only be a human being, but also an official. If an official came to visit him in the future, he could hint to the official about his relationship with the two imperial veterans, and then manipulate some inappropriate things. Something easy to do.
This is really stupid!
On the other side, in the emperor's study, Ying Zheng was sitting on the imperial chair, concentrating on reviewing the memorials.
At this time, Zhao Gao had returned to his post and was waiting carefully on the sidelines.
The next moment, a voice came from outside the study: "Your Majesty! The doctor ordered Meng Yi to see you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao looked at Ying Zheng calmly.
"Xuan!"
Ying Zheng said a word without raising his head, and then continued to review the memorial.
Soon, Meng Yi took the piece of paper, strode into the study, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Meng Yi, pays homage to you."
"I came back so early, I guess the paper has been made successfully."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Meng Yi excitedly raised his hands above his head and said in a sonorous voice: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. The paper making is successful. This is the first piece of paper in the world. I hope your majesty will check it out!"
"oh?"
Ying Zheng raised his head with a long sigh, looked at the yellow and white thing in Meng Yi's hand, and said with a smile, "Is this paper?"
"Exactly!"
Meng Yi replied and was about to step forward when Zhao Gao quickly stepped to his side, took the paper and handed it to Ying Zheng respectfully.
Meng Yi frowned slightly, and then he smiled nonchalantly and said, "There is also a sentence written by the young master himself on it, which shows the character of my old Qin people, no, it should show the character of my Great Qin!"
"Ah!"
Ying Zheng laughed and scolded: "Only this brat dares to write. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid he wouldn't have the guts!"
He was telling the truth. Apart from him, the emperor, no one dared to be the first to write on this first piece of paper.
But he didn't care, so he took the paper in Zhao Gao's hand and slowly unfolded it.
What caught my eye was naturally the sentence "Anyone who offends us and strengthens the Qin Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away he is." '
"this"
Ying Zheng was slightly startled. He couldn't help repeating these words in his heart, and suddenly he felt like his blood was boiling.
Because of his age, the vigor he had when he ascended to the throne was gradually wearing away. Even though he destroyed the Six Kingdoms, he gradually lost the vigor he had in his youth, and now he seems to have come back to life again.
He found that he felt the passion of his youth again.
He looked up at Meng Yi, then turned to look at Zhao Gao, and after a while he murmured to himself: "Tell me, am I getting old?"
Zhao Gao on the side bowed when he heard the words, as if ignoring Ying Zheng's gray hair on his temples, and said with a smile: "Since your Majesty planned to conquer Jiuzhou and revolutionize the Qin State, I have noticed that your Majesty's spirit has become more and more energetic."
"hehe."
Ying Zheng smiled noncommittally.
But I heard Meng Yi continue: "His Majesty's condition seems to have improved. Thanks to the master's magic medicine, the master is really the lucky star of our Daqin, and your majesty's lucky star!"
Hearing these words, Zhao Gao bowed even lower, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, which lasted only a fleeting moment.
Damn it! Meng Yi mentioned nothing else but His Majesty's condition. Didn't this clearly remind His Majesty that he had taken pills to aggravate his condition?
Doesn't this clearly remind His Majesty of his previous affairs?
How shameless!
Just when Zhao Gao was slandering and feeling uneasy, he heard Ying Zheng nod his head with a smile and said: "That guy's medicine is indeed miraculous, but this sentence is even more miraculous. I feel a lot younger just looking at it."
Meng Yi smiled and said nothing.
"Zhao Gao, order someone to hang it up in my study." Ying Zheng said with a solemn expression: "No one is allowed to take it down, no matter the first, second, or even eternal emperor!"
"!"
Zhao Gao and Meng Yi were shocked at the same time. You must know that this study is where the First Emperor handled state affairs. The words hung in the First Emperor's study were passed down from generation to generation as the Great Qin Ancestors.
It would be fine if it were Ying Zheng's quotation, but it happened to be a quotation from a prince.
If this prince becomes the successor emperor, it will be okay, but if he does not become the successor emperor, the significance to the successor emperor will probably be worse than eating a fly.
"Your Majesty, this."
Meng Yi opened and closed his lips, trying to persuade Ying Zheng, but Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao without any doubt: "Go to the general's office and ask Su Tian to find the best craftsmen to frame it for me and hang it here!"
"promise."
Zhao Gao promised, took the scroll respectfully, and left the study.
At this time, a report came from outside the door again: "Your Majesty, Wang Jian wants to see you!"
"Wang Jian?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then his expression became solemn: "Xuan!"
Soon, Wang Jian walked into the study with a solemn expression. Just as he was about to salute Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng waved directly and said: "Old general, there is no need to be polite, but what happened?"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Wang Jian cupped his hands and said, "I just received an urgent report from Longxi that the Qiang have united with the Xiongnu to launch a revenge war against our country, the Qin Dynasty!"
"That's unreasonable! Do you really think that Da Qin is a soft persimmon that anyone wants to take advantage of?"
Ying Zheng said angrily and funny: "Immediately order all ministers and generals to discuss matters in the Zhengzheng Hall!"
"Your Majesty, do you mean to fight?"
"So what if I'm beaten? Li Xin is reporting in accordance with the law. It's not like he can't be beaten. What are you afraid of!"
Wang Jian frowned and said: "What I'm worried about is that if we fight against the Qiang, our Daqin will face a three-front war situation, and I'm afraid there will be a shortage of food and grass."
"Hmph! Anyone who offends me and strengthens Qin will be punished no matter how far away he is!"
Ying Zheng slapped the desk and stood up, snorted coldly, left the desk and walked straight out of the study.
"?"
Wang Jian looked confused, and a small black question mark slowly appeared on his forehead. He turned to look at Meng Yi and couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, what's going on?"
"hehe."
Meng Yi smiled noncommittally and said with emotion: "Our Majesty has become younger! Young people must be energetic!"
After saying that, he ignored Wang Jian who was still confused and followed him out of the study.
