The next morning, Ying Xuan woke up with a delicate and gentle kiss.
The warm breath tickled her face, like the restless temptation of a girl.
Ying Xuan thought happily in his heart that the life of the second generation of the emperor was so happy, and he didn't know which maid came to wake him up. The method was really gentle and well-behaved. He must do it in the future and reward him well.
Open your eyes and see a huge dog head!
--silence.
"roll!!!"
"Woo~wu~wu"
The aggrieved Wangcai was so frightened that he trembled and ran out of the room whimpering.
Under the maid's suppressed laughter, Ying Xuan washed his face ten times before giving up in shame and anger.
After finishing breakfast depressingly, he walked out the door and saw Zhang Han practicing swordplay not far away.
Suddenly all dissatisfaction disappeared, and the great achievements in Ying Xuan's mind reappeared.
He rubbed his hands together impatiently.
Although the other party is a loyal minister certified by the system, Ying Xuan thinks that is not enough. He must let the other party see his own personality charm.
Let the other person feel how bright the future will be and how strong the sense of superiority will be if they follow him.
Only in this way can they truly be loyal to themselves from the bottom of their hearts.
The easiest way to create a sense of superiority is to find someone who is better than him and make the same choices as him.
Such as a counselor's allegiance.
Now Zhang Han has not yet shown his talents. In the final analysis, he is just a guard. Even he himself does not regard himself as a general.
At this time, a person who was rumored to be very powerful came and pledged his loyalty to him in front of him.
Doesn't this immediately prove how correct his choice was?
If this counselor had been smarter, he would have cried bitterly and expressed gratitude when he came.
That Zhang Han must follow him wholeheartedly.
Ying Xuan laughed out loud just thinking about that scene.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't wait to drag Zhang Han out of the palace.
When they reached the palace gate, the lieutenant on duty saw Ying Xuan from a distance and ran over.
"Sir, what you told me was completed last night, but I happened to meet Zhao Gao when I was doing it. He also went to silence me!"
Ying Xuan was stunned. He was a close confidant of Zhao Gao. How could he take action himself?
How can he win over people's hearts if he kills his subordinates for a trivial matter?
Ying Xuan frowned and was confused for a moment. Could it be that he looked down upon him?
Historically, after forcing Hu Hai to death, he failed to rise to power because he found that no one supported him.
When the lieutenant saw that Ying Xuan didn't reply, he continued.
"By the way, he thought I was looking for trouble with him at first, so he gave me a pendant."
"But since my brothers and I have already taken your money, of course we will not accept other people's things."
With that said, the lieutenant put the wooden pendant into Ying Xuan's hand.
Ying Xuan didn't intend to take it, but the familiar fragrance made him subconsciously take the wooden pendant.
It smells pretty good, but I feel like I’ve smelled this smell before!
Ying Xuan was stunned for half a second and couldn't remember. He took out a gold cake again and stuffed it to the lieutenant.
The lieutenant resisted in every possible way, until Ying Xuan's expression changed and he respectfully accepted it.
After seeing Ying Xuan off, the guard next to the lieutenant asked.
"That wooden pendant looks like it's not ordinary at first glance, why should you hand it in?"
The lieutenant scoffed.
"Are you stupid? Do you really think Zhao Gao is trying to bribe us?"
The guard was confused, and the lieutenant sighed before continuing.
"There are so many precious treasures. Maybe some minister gave them to Zhao Gao."
"If we put it out for sale and someone recognizes it, we can't explain it. What if Zhao Gao comes back and says you stole it after a while? I'm afraid I won't be able to argue with you!"
"It's only safe to leave it to the young master, and you can get some rewards in exchange! You can't be too greedy, only taking what you deserve is a long-term solution!"
The guard nodded thoughtfully, and the lieutenant sighed as he looked at the two figures.
"Brother Zhang Han has reached the sky in one step this time. Sooner or later, he will leave a mark with the young master."
Zhang Han, who walked out of the palace, could clearly feel that the greetings he had just made with his brothers were becoming more polite.
Even people with whom he had difficulty dealing with in the past bravely stepped forward and gave him a few compliments.
The change of status made a huge difference to him.
He glanced at Ying Xuan, who was thinking while walking.
Zhang Han secretly strengthened his belief and must create great achievements!
Ying Xuan thought about it all the way but couldn't figure out what the situation was like with Zhao Gao. No matter how he looked at it, he didn't have the domineering power of calling a deer a horse.
Shaking his head, he gave it up and decided to focus on doing his own business first.
He looked at Zhang Han and smiled.
"Zhang Han, do you know why I have been running to Qu Pavilion these past few days?"
Zhang Han lowered his head and replied.
"My subordinates don't know, so please give me some advice!"
But Ying Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a mysterious expression.
"I'm waiting for a very important person! This person can be said to be a top strategist!"
"It took me a long time and a lot of cost to finally persuade the other party to come out!"
"No one knows this news, so don't let it out."
Zhang Han suddenly felt like he was being taken seriously and said excitedly.
"My subordinates must be tight-lipped. If I leak even a few words, I will die..."
Ying Xuan didn't expect that he just wanted to pretend to be 13, but Zhang Han was so serious and quickly interrupted him.
"That's what! It's not that exaggerated. It doesn't need to be like this. It doesn't need to be like this!"
Unexpectedly, Zhang Han thought that Ying Xuan told him to ask him to receive him, so he asked.
"I wonder what the name of that gentleman is? It wouldn't be rude for me to find out for a while first."
Ying Xuan opened his mouth and realized that he was just having nothing to do to make himself uncomfortable.
Looking at Zhang Han's close ear, he could only speak hesitantly.
"I told you to keep it a secret, so of course I can't tell you in advance!"
He was also very helpless. He didn't even know whether the other person was a boy or a girl, let alone his name.
After finally fooling Zhang Han, he walked to Qu Pavilion. When he asked the manager he had hired, the person who applied for the job as shopkeeper still didn't show up. Ying Xuan was extremely disappointed.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a shelf covered with cloth in the corner.
The white cloth above has a thin layer of skin on it. Isn't that the pulp that was fished out yesterday?
Ying Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward to observe carefully.
He carefully tried to uncover the peeling area, only to see a piece of paper with messy colors but light texture separated lightly.
Good guy, did you really create it yourself?
Ying Xuan himself was a little surprised.
He clearly remembered that the last step of making paper was to take the fiber out of the water tank, but he never thought that pouring it on cloth could also work.
He didn't go to the toilet in the morning, so he excitedly tore off a piece and rushed to the latrine.
A few minutes later, Ying Xuan appeared in front of Zhang Han again with a relaxed expression.
Although the paper is still a bit stiff, it is ten thousand times better than the wooden slips.
When using it, it actually gave Ying Xuan a sense of happiness as he returned to civilized society in a short period of time.
The excited Ying Xuan introduced Zhang Han and the other guys.
"This is the greatest invention in a hundred years - paper!"
The old steward on the side came up and touched it with a surprised look on his face.
"It's so light and soft, and the raw materials are simple and easy to find. It's a good toilet item. We will definitely make a lot of money when we sell it. It's just that I haven't realized how great it is!"
This old manager was recruited by Ying Xuan from other stores. He never cared about Ying Xuan's identity, and he was not like other people who only paid compliments. It was also because of this that Ying Xuan trusted him to manage Qu Ge.
Facing the old manager's questioning, Ying Xuan smiled. He just wanted someone to question him. How could he show off his awesomeness when no one questioned him?
The next moment, I saw him fetching the brushes and ink from the store.
After grinding, tear off a piece of paper and start writing.
In the past, writing on bamboo slips or silk required multiple dips in ink.
Writing a paragraph takes a long time.
Ying Xuan, on the other hand, almost did it in one breath, and the words were filled with words in less than a cup of tea.
Then he blew it twice and folded the paper.
The old housekeeper immediately shouted.
"No, if you do this, your font will be messed up!"
On weekdays, letters written on silk must be dried carefully, otherwise the lettering will be smeared if folded slightly, leaving only a stain when reading, making it impossible to see anything clearly.
But Ying Xuan didn't listen, and pressed it hard twice in front of the old steward, and then opened the paper again.
The next moment, everyone saw clear and clean fonts displayed on the paper.
The old steward was immediately shocked and speechless, stunned and unable to speak.
Having been a businessman all his life, he immediately understood the commercial value of this kind of thing.
Once this thing comes out, bamboo slips will no longer have a place in the world.
Zhang Han on the side also understood a little more.
Using this light and easy-to-carry thing to carry text is much more convenient than bamboo slips, and much cheaper than expensive silk cloth.
It was simply born as a vehicle for words.
Ying Xuan looked proudly at the shocked expressions of the two smart men.
It’s not easy! I have been here for less than half a year, and I finally succeeded in manifesting the Holy Spirit!
Although the guys around didn't understand what it meant, they could tell from the expressions of the steward and Zhang Han that the young master's invention was very powerful.
Ying Xuan, whose vanity was satisfied, was extremely happy and proudly preached under the admiring eyes of everyone.
"Where is this? There are too many impurities. When I develop pure white paper and promote it to the world, more people will be able to read and write, and more people will get rid of ignorance."
"I want to enlighten the people and the world!"
The moment those words were spoken, a thunderbolt flashed across the sky, instantly lighting up the gloomy sky.
A figure happened to be walking in front of the store at this moment.
He heard Ying Xuan's words and saw the thunder in the sky.
For a moment, my mind was shocked. Is there such a person with such a big heart in the world?
Then when he saw the words on the paper, he suddenly felt his scalp numb and goosebumps all over his body.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living and the people, carry forward the unique teachings of the past saints, and create peace for all generations!"
The four sentences seemed to burst out with a momentum that changed the world, making the man breathless.
With a dry throat, he looked at this boy who was only a teenager, but what he saw seemed to be a giant standing tall and towering over all living beings!
Zhang Han was also shocked. He was shocked by Ying Xuan's heroic words about enlightening the world, and even more shocked by the four majestic and shocking poems written on the paper.
At this moment, there was only one thought left in his mind. Being able to follow the young master was probably a hard-won opportunity for him!
At this time, after Ying Xuan's vanity was greatly satisfied, he also discovered a man in a raincoat in front of the door.
The two looked at each other, and when Ying Xuan saw the other's embarrassed figure and determined eyes, he immediately understood that the person he was waiting for had finally arrived.
And that person was very sure at this moment that the arrogant young man in front of him was the person he wanted to seek refuge with.
He had thought about the other person's appearance and conduct countless times on the road, but he never expected that the first meeting would bring such a huge shock to him.
Zhang Han was worthy of being a bodyguard, and he immediately followed Ying Xuan's gaze and spotted him.
Thinking of Ying Xuan's words, he did not neglect the other party because of his ragged clothes. He took a step forward and saluted respectfully.
"Is sir the person that the young master is waiting for?"
Ying Xuan's eyes shone, haha, speak up, my comrade, show your excitement and tears, let Zhang Han see clearly how correct his choice is!
Zhang Han also looked at the other party with burning eyes.
But he didn't expect that the determined light in that man's eyes dimmed instantly when he heard Zhang Han reveal the identity of Young Master Ying Xuan.
There was a trace of astonishment and a trace of a wry smile, which seemed to be mixed with self-deprecation and despair. After the silence, he smiled freely.
He asked under Ying Xuan's sincere eyes.
"Do you mind if I kill your father?"
