Fu Qingyi nodded slowly, stroking the beard on his chin with his right hand. After thinking for a moment, he said: "If you are like this, Qinzhou should pay close attention and send a few reliable people to Liu Changqing's hometown, Qinzhou Chun." Hua County, let’s see if we can find anything from there.”
"As long as I know Liu Changqing's dirt, I can write a letter of impeachment and find a way to remove him from the position of Kyoto Prefecture!"
Thinking of this, Fu Qingyi suddenly felt a sense of excitement. Ever since his son was arrested and his plea for mercy was fruitless, he had hated Liu Changqing. This hatred made him eager to overthrow and attack Liu Changqing. It has risen to the level of political struggle.
Then he told the housekeeper sternly: "You will be personally responsible for this matter and closely monitor Liu Changqing's every move. Chunhua will also do its best to dig deeper. If it is done well, I will reward you heavily and guarantee your prosperity and wealth." ."
When the housekeeper heard this, he beamed with joy: "Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely handle this matter well!"
Secretly collecting evidence from political opponents is not uncommon in political struggles throughout history.
But this is actually illegal. Why do you, a minister of the Ministry of Rites, send people to monitor orders from the Kyoto Prefecture? Who gave you the right?
The housekeeper left to arrange this matter.
Fu Qingyi sat on the chair, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He couldn't help but start to deduce the process of this matter in his mind: Liu Changqing is also a human being, and he has flaws. I don't believe that he doesn't have some dirty things.
He had already begun to imagine the scene when he fell from the horse.
At this time, his wife walked in and interrupted his thoughts: "Master, Kang'er him"
Seeing her, Fu Qingyi felt inexplicably agitated: "I'm still thinking of a solution, don't worry, Kang'er will be fine in the Kyoto Prefecture prison."
"But how can people live in that prison?" The lady said, "How about you go find Master Yao again? Master Yao will definitely be able to do it."
"Have you had enough?" Fu Qingyi glared and said, "Who is Mr. Yao? If I go, I will be reprimanded. Don't you think my old face has been humiliated enough?"
"But. But Kang'er."
"Okay! I will handle this matter! Just stop asking!"
The twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month.
First, the elementary school textbooks compiled by Zhangtaige were printed and distributed to counties across the country. Then, various thread-bound books were issued by the state and appeared in various bookstores and bookstores.
This was the first paper book to come out, and it caused a huge response.
In the past, bamboo slips were hard to find and difficult to write, and there were few complete books. But now this kind of thread-bound edition is different. It is issued by the state and sold in bookstores. It can be bought by everyone. It can also be said that it further affects the gentry. The monopoly of the clan on the level of knowledge.
Books such as "The Ancient Scrolls", "The Chronicles of the Kingdoms", "Qin Lv Shu Yi", "Book of Poetry", "Classics", and "Guoyu" are particularly popular. They are almost everywhere in bookstores as soon as they are available. Sold out.
They were all bought by scholars who were studying hard, because these books are related to the imperial examinations. If you study them at home, you will definitely benefit a lot.
Many poor scholars have spent all their money, and some have tried their best to buy a few copies and study them all day at home. Moreover, these are all genuine copies without any typos, making them regarded as treasures.
A wealthy family in Yangzhou.
A young man came back with a book and said with a complicated expression: "Father, look."
The old man took the thread-bound "Book of Poetry" and opened the title page. It was the red seal of the national issuing agency and a party. He looked at it and then read it carefully.
After a while, he said: "This "Book of Poems" has no omissions or typos, and the chapters and sentences are clearer. It is better than the books in our family."
"Yes." The young man smiled bitterly: ""The Book of Poems" has 37,000 words in total, which requires a lot of bamboo slips. In the past, if someone wanted to read the entire book of poems, they had to borrow it from our family again and again, but now. Just buy this book, it only costs a few tens of liters, and everyone can read it."
"So, you should work harder." The old man said: "Our Emperor is different. He conducts imperial examinations to get officials. He doesn't care whether you are from a noble family or not. In the past, officials were officials for generations, and books and knowledge were controlled by the powerful. The era here no longer exists, and everything must be looked forward to."
"My son understands and will study hard."
In bookstores and bookstores everywhere, almost all books are cleared out as soon as they are put on the shelves. This situation of short supply has also allowed bookstore owners to see huge benefits and caused some turmoil in the printing and publishing issue.
This matter was reported to Xiao Yuan by Dong Shu.
In the palace study, Xiao Yuan thought about it and said: "Don't compete with the people for profit, but the country must strictly control the publication and distribution of books. Zhangtai Pavilion is still responsible for this matter. After you go back, we can discuss it and it can be established." An official office responsible for the printing and distribution of books."
"I understand that once the consultation results are available, they will be handed over to His Majesty for review." Dong Shu said respectfully.
"Well, go ahead." Xiao Yuan gestured slightly and continued to review the memorial with his head down.
"Wei Chen resigns."
At the same time, Northeast Pass.
Last time, after receiving the order from Emperor Xiao Yuan, Anyang County Sheriff dared not delay anything. After spending a lot of money and time, he finally collected 3,000 pigs and sheep and sent them to the border camp.
Of course, pigs accounted for the majority of these. After all, mutton was much more expensive, but slaughtering them all would also allow the soldiers to drink a bowl of hot mutton soup.
This made Anyang County Sheriff complain for a while. After all, the world had just been unified for a year, and meat was still a luxury item. He thought of many ways and bought a lot from surrounding counties.
But fortunately, the Anyang treasury is still in good condition, and there is no need to hand it over this year. All the money and food will be used for the frontline military.
When he saw Wei Qing, Anyang County Sheriff was still talking: "General Wei, you don't know that His Majesty said a lot in the letter. Fortunately, I have completed the task, otherwise I would not be able to explain."
"Haha, thank you for your hard work, Lord Sheriff." Wei Qing laughed heartily and patted his shoulder: "Now that we have arrived at the military camp, you might as well sit down and have a glass of wine and rest for the night before returning."
"Then I'm not welcome."
"Haha, where are you? Lord Sheriff, please."
Wei Qing was very happy. This was a great thing to do in the cold winter. He also summoned the soldiers that day and said loudly at Jiangtai:
"His Majesty's decree! The soldiers defended their homes and fought for the country! You have worked hard!"
"We specially ordered Anyang to send pigs and sheep so that the soldiers can drink a bowl of sheep soup to dispel the cold in the cold winter!"
"Today, pigs and sheep will be killed! Let them all eat!"
“But no drinking!”
"Don't let your guard down!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers of the Qin army below burst into cheers:
"Long live!"
"Long live my emperor——" (End of this chapter)
