Chapter 627: Tribute (II)
This is true, but Dong Min and others are angry... What is wrong with this Ma Qiang, what's the matter with sending books!
Is I, Dong Min (Niu Fu), like a person who reads books?
If you want to send some money, what official position do you want?
Liu Xie listened to Yang Biao's words, nodded again and again, but he didn't dare to make the decision, and then looked at Dong Niu and the others and asked, "Two generals, what do you think?" ”
The two looked at each other for a long time before nodding in acquiescence.
Gongsun Fang wore court clothes, entered the court, respectfully bowed to Liu Xie, and then took out Ma Qiang's handwritten document and read it.
This document is also the same old-fashioned, that is, while crying and recalling the grace of the first emperor to Ma Qiang, he hated that he couldn't go to Guanzhong to protect Liu Xie, and then said that he was worried that Liu Xie would be unhappy in Guanzhong, and it happened that he recently organized the compilation of a book and gave it to Liu Xie to relieve his boredom.
Yes, after listening to it for a long time, there was really no money.
"What is this dictionary for?" Liu Xie had actually heard about this a long time ago, so he was a little curious.
Gongsun Fang opened the box of tribute, took out a dictionary and said, "Uncle Xu rewrote "Shuowen Jie Zi", which contains 9,353 words. In addition, there are 1,163 heavy texts, with a total of 10,516 words.
Even if a boy gets this book, he can also read the world's words without a teacher and read hundreds of articles.
But when my general was a teenager studying literature, I felt that there were too few words in the "Shuowen Jiezi", and it was difficult to check the words, and the content was simple, so I invited all parties to Confucianism, and it took ten years to get this "Chinese Dictionary", which contains more than 30,000 words in this book, and can be checked by pronunciation, radicals, etc., and each word is annotated with reverse cut phonetics, pinyin, sources, source references, etc., so that the people of the world can rely on this book to simplify and control the complex.
Our general has decided to print this book cheaply and pass it on to the world, and my general thinks that after a thousand years, even if there are literati in the world who do not know Ma Qiang, there will be no literati who do not know the "Dictionary". ”
Dong Niu and a group of other martial artists frowned when they heard this, what is this, isn't it just a book to look up words? What's the big deal.
And Yang Biao and the others on the side, their eyes were bigger than the other.
Decade?
More than 30,000 words??
Do they know what Ma Qiang was doing ten years ago, shouldn't Ma Qiang ten years ago still be a wild man in Youzhou? At that time, I was preparing a masterpiece like "Dictionary", how old was this guy at that time?
"Your Majesty, the old minister wants to read this book." A minister couldn't help but stand up and pray.
"Cai Shangshu wants to see it, so naturally he can."
Gongsun Fang looked at the man, and then knew that the minister was the great Confucian Cai Yong, bowed first, and then asked the attendant to send a set of dictionaries to Cai Yong.
As soon as Cai Yong rolled it, his eyes lit up.
Regardless of the book, just this word, this paper, this print, this book is indeed qualified to be a tribute.
Read the book again, it's amazing, Cai Yong is also considered to be rich and rich, but looking at the source explanation of each word in the dictionary still feels quite rewarding, he knows that he is still in the court, and he can't bear to read it much, but to Liu Xiebai said, "Your Majesty, this book is really the treasure of the world, only this book, the name of the dynasty's cultural governance, will be famous for centuries!" ”
???
Dong Niu and the others looked at Cai Yong, who was already looking like a fan brother, with a question mark on their heads.
I said, big guy, is this book so exaggerated?
"Really? Hurry up and send this book! ”
Gongsun Fang glanced at Zhao Huo, who was disguised as an attendant, and Zhao Huo immediately put a set of books on the tray and was brought up by the eunuch.
Yang Biao and others couldn't help but want to take a look at the "Dictionary", okay, this court hall has directly become a book appreciation party.
Liu Xie opened the dictionary, flipped through it, and suddenly saw a note sandwiched inside
Liu Xie's hand shook violently, but on his face, he silently pressed the note, and then took advantage of the width of his sleeves to directly put the note in his hand and hide it.
"Good! This book is really extraordinary, how should I reward it? ”
"Your Majesty, wait!" Niu Fu immediately made a sound to stop it, then looked at Gongsun Fang and asked, "Tribute, only a dictionary?" ”
"Only dictionaries."
Call~~
Some comrades are broken.
Not to mention the first emperor's meeting, when the Taishi was there, when did you Ma Qiang come to give gifts that were not full of gold and jade, why did you change our two brothers now, and only books remained?
After all, Dong Niu and the others are already big guys, so it's not good to speak directly, the two of them made a look, and Li Wei walked out directly and asked, "Since it's a tribute, why are there only these "dictionaries"?" This thing can't be eaten, can't be drunk, and it's not gold, silver, and jade, what's the use? ”
A group of ministers who were sitting hurriedly covered their faces with their sleeves, saying that they could not bear to see this scene.
Also gold, silver and jade silk?
Are those blockages comparable to this book?
It's really insulting!
Gongsun Fang was already prepared in his belly, and said apologetically, "My general doesn't know what the imperial court lacks, so he doesn't dare to pay tribute to everything without permission."
However, my general is also worried about His Majesty's suffering in Guanzhong, so I hope that His Majesty will allow the Zhenbei General's Mansion to set up a Beijing office in Chang'an to facilitate communication.
If Your Majesty needs it, you only need to inform the Beijing Office, and after the general receives the letter, he will send someone to your Majesty to enjoy. ”
Beijing Office?
Dong Niu and the others touched their heads, a little bit didn't understand what twists and turns were there, but their intuition as a warrior told them that something was wrong.
But I don't know what's wrong.
Gongsun Fang's words are very reasonable, Ma Qiang is in Jizhou, where do you know what Guanzhong lacks, of course you have to send someone to stay here, what is lacking in the imperial court, squeak, Jizhou is good to raise.
Yang Biao and the others were bright-eyed.
Although their brains are not as big as Dong Niu and the others, they have large brain capacity and high IQ, and they have an insight into the role of this Beijing office at once.
This thing, at the critical moment, is the key to saving the Son of Heaven from the Han Valley!
But Yang Biao and the others also knew that Dong Min, Niu Fu and others were afraid of their courtiers, so they didn't dare to speak, for fear of self-defeating, so they could only look at Liu Xie, hoping that Liu Xie could understand it himself.
Liu Xie's eyes rolled, although he didn't quite understand what this Beijing Office could do, but the small note in the dictionary made his heart pound.
As long as it is the enemy of the enemy, it is your friend!
Liu Xie clenched his fists and shouted loudly, "Mr. Gongsun is reasonable!" Now that Chang'an is short of money and food, I don't know if General Zhenbei may support? ”
Dong Niu and the others immediately looked at Gongsun Fang.
Gongsun Fang immediately responded, "If Your Majesty is in need, General Zhenbei will do his best."
It's just..."
"Just what?" Guo Yan asked.
"General Zhenbei is loyal, I don't know if the court can be gracious? If there is no grace, I am afraid that the general is willing, and the soldiers and people under the general's command will also be unwilling. ”
Well, that's right, eating people is soft-mouthed, and taking people is short-handed, so you can't just eat without giving money.
Liu Xie looked at Dong Niu and the two, and the two nodded.
The official position, it doesn't matter, as long as you give money.
Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao again, and Yang Biao came out and said, "General Ma is loyal to the Han family, martial arts, and martial arts, which is difficult to find in the world, and he has made meritorious contributions to compiling the "Dictionary". ”
"Quasi-play!" Liu Xie waved in response.
