I saw that the characters on the "Dream of Red Mansions" were not only beautiful, clear and easy to read, but the paper was white, smooth and impervious to ink, which subverted the cognition of the royal students!
Before Jixia Academy was built, bamboo slips had always been used to carry text on this continent.
After Master Wei established Jixia Academy, he spent a long time creating the first rough paper on this continent.
Later, the paper was improved by countless skilled craftsmen. Although it was much more refined, compared with the paper that carried "Dream of Red Mansions", it was as good as heaven or earth.
At this time, the person who bought the book touched the paper as if it were a treasure, and exclaimed: "With such good paper, it is really not expensive to sell a book for ten taels of gold!"
"What a huge profit!"
Moreover, the text in the book is so special that it looks like it was not written by hand.
But printed.
I saw that the distance between the words was exactly the same, and the two repeated words were exactly the same, which was amazing.
There was no printing in this era, so all text was written by hand.
Therefore, when the royal students saw the fonts printed with movable type printing, their eyes were horribly bright!
At this time, a Royal Academy student with a beautiful face and no Adam's apple asked eagerly: "Du Meiren, were the words rubbed on it?"
Du Yue'er saw through her daughter's body and smiled sweetly: "It's not a rubbing!"
"My prince invented a type of movable type printing. The text in the book was printed using movable type printing."
"second to none!"
"Typography?"
Although people don’t understand it, they think it sounds awesome!
Immediately afterwards.
The royal student who was disguised as a man placed the book in front of Du Yue'er, pointed at the symbols for broken sentences and asked, "What are these symbols?"
In the time and space of China, the punctuation point appeared in the Han Dynasty.
In this continent, there are no punctuation marks yet.
Du Yue'er explained patiently: "The prince said that if the article has no punctuation marks and sentences, it would be difficult to read, and the content may even be misunderstood, so the prince created these punctuation marks."
The prince who disguised himself as a man was very studious and began to ask for advice on the meaning and usage of various punctuation marks. After listening, his charming eyes were filled with admiration.
Then, she hugged the book and squeezed out of the crowd, escorted by a group of royal students, and ran towards the Royal Academy.
Shortly after.
In the Royal Academy.
Dean Peacock was rubbing "Dream of Red Mansions" in his hand, his eyes bursting with light, and he murmured: "Wonderful!"
"What a wonderful punctuation mark!"
"With these punctuation marks that can be used to break sentences, future generations will not be misinterpreted by future generations when writing books, and my Confucian knowledge can be passed down through the ages. It is really a small symbol with great wisdom!"
"The King of Huangzhou may be the person we are looking for!"
Dean Peacock's face became solemn and he said seriously: "I heard that the prince made a bet with the king of Huangzhou and spent a lot of money to invite several hidden schools to block the doors of Huangzhou's shops and prevent Huangzhou's shops from opening. !”
"Back then, they were beaten into disgrace by my Confucian family. They must have come prepared this time. They said they were targeting the King of Huangzhou. They most likely came against my Confucian family. I told all the Confucian disciples to be careful when entering and exiting recently. !”
"yes!"
Peacock continued to make arrangements: "Ai'er, go to the Ninth Prince to send a greeting card. My father wants to go to the King of Huangzhou in person!"
"yes!"
Kong Ai, who was disguised as a man, looked delighted: "My daughter, go now!"
"Go and see the Holy King!"
Dean Peacock smiled elegantly: "Although you have never met him, you should know that in addition to calling him the Holy King, the world also gave him a nickname - the most beautiful man in the world!"
"King Huangzhou is the dream lover of all women in the world. You can admire him, but you can't fall in love with him!"
Kong Ai was stunned: "Why can't my daughter fall in love with him?"
The peacock turned and left: "Because the love of the Holy King is like the sea, you can't resist it!"
Kong Ai looked puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Peacock no longer explains!
Then, with joy, she took the Confucian invitation and went to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
at the same time.
The peacock came to the forbidden area of the Royal Academy.
He tore off the seal on the door of the forbidden area, pushed open the long-dusted door, stepped on the fallen leaves in the forbidden area, and said loudly into the depths: "Everyone, that person has appeared, you can come out!"
Suddenly.
Strong winds blew from the depths of the forbidden area, picking up the yellow leaves on the ground and swirling around the peacock.
Immediately afterwards, powerful white figures flew out from the depths of the forbidden area and landed in front of the peacock: "Really appeared?"
"yes!"
the other side.
Ninth Prince's Mansion, in the study.
Xia Tian is holding a small pen, writing something?
At this time.
The heroic interim manager Bai Feng walked into the study and put the tea bowl on the desk: "Your Majesty, Dean Peacock of the Royal Academy ordered someone to send a greeting card and said that he would come to see the Prince in the evening!"
Xia Tian put down his pen, raised his bright starry eyes, and said with a smile, "He is finally here!"
A glimmer of light flashed in Bai Feng's eyes: "Your Majesty asked Mr. Du to sell books today. Is it because of Dean Kong?"
Xia Tian was in a good mood: "Not bad!"
Bai Feng blinked her eyes: "The person who came to deliver the greeting card was a beautiful Confucian scholar disguised as a man. She bought the first "Dream of Red Mansions" sold in Huangzhou store today. She said she wanted to ask the prince about something in the book. !”
Xia Tian also blinked: "Gone!"
Time passes ruthlessly.
The sun sets, the moon rises, and the night comes.
The imperial capital is brightly lit with candles!
At this moment, six people in black cloaks entered the Ninth Prince's Palace unobstructed. Under the guidance of Bai Feng, they went straight into the palace hall!
At this time, Xia Tian was already sitting on the main seat in the hall.
Six men in black cloaks walked into the hall, took off their cloaks, exposed their Confucian shirts and said in unison: "Confucians have seen the prince!"
Under candlelight.
A contemporary Confucian scholar, Dean Peacock of the Royal Academy, stands at the front.
Behind him were five old Confucian scholars with white hair and beards. They were all lean and elegant, exuding elegance from head to toe.
At the same time, the martial arts aura they exude is also unfathomable, and they are all top Confucian masters.
Xia Tian stood up and returned the courtesy: "Dean Kong and all the great Confucian scholars don't need to be polite, please sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Peacock led all the great scholars to sit down, looking at Xia Tian one by one, with complicated expressions in their eyes.
At this time, the palace maid served Huangzhou's good tea. The fragrance made all the scholars salivate, and they couldn't wait to taste it: "Good tea!"
Xia Tian then asked directly: "Dean Kong came to see me, but there is something important?"
"have!"
Peacock put down the tea bowl, and Qingyi's face was full of curiosity: "Your Majesty, your master...is he a weirdo?"
