Chapter 1580 On the orders of King Wei
Wu Meiniang never thinks that she is worse than men, especially in the estimation of the situation and the speculation of people's hearts, she is even superior.
It's not conceit, it's self-confidence.
However, what Fang Jun said now made her confused, and she couldn't feel the weird atmosphere at all......
Fang Jun looked at Wu Meiniang's beautiful face with deep incomprehension, and said with a smile: "What, don't believe it?" ”
Wu Meiniang pursed her lips and was speechless.
"Three obedience and four virtues" is the most beautiful quality of every woman, Wu Meiniang is unwilling to express her suspicion of Lang Jun in person, but she is unwilling to lie......
Fang Jun smiled lightly and said, "If you don't believe it, you can watch quietly, and when Wei Ying and they attack those booksellers, you can see the clue from the attitude of the family behind them." ”
Seeing the bewildered look on her face at the moment, Wu Meiniang, who has always been shrewd and capable, felt more and more cute, so strong that His Majesty the Emperor Zetian was as gentle and supple as a deep girl, but with a trace of stubbornness, which made Fang Jun love in his heart, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch his greasy cheeks.
Although she has become a wife and a mother, her tight skin is full of elasticity and moisture, not only does not lose the girl's clear and handsome beauty, but also adds a bit of maturity and charm.
I see pity......
Wu Meiniang didn't care about Lang Jun's frivolous movements, her two beautiful eyes were shining, and she was thoughtful and comprehended Lang Jun's words.

Meng Ziyun: "It is better to believe in the "book" than to have no "book". ”
This is the realm of reading that has been respected by all readers throughout the ages, requiring students to be good at thinking independently while reading, and not to follow the crowd, even if they are respected like the "Book of Shang", they must dare to put forward skeptical views.
It can be said that this is excellent thinking.
However, for most students in the world, this realm is still too high-end, and everyone has not even read a few books, where can they experience such an otherworldly realm?
Books are the most elegant things in ancient times.
It is also the most extravagant......
The paper is expensive and the engraving is not easy, which makes the price of the book appalling, and the idle family can only borrow a copy to copy, if you want to buy one, it is too difficult. This led to the scarcity of books and the limitations of dissemination, which in turn made the access to knowledge for ordinary people too narrow, and the monopoly of political resources by the family lords continued for generations.
Knowledge is power, and the ancients have long understood this truth.
Therefore, not every merchant can become a bookseller, and behind almost every bookseller, there are one or several family lords, who flaunt the noble moral sentiments of "teaching without class" and "teaching people tirelessly", while also strictly controlling the circulation of books, and then controlling the spread of knowledge.
Hundreds of years after the birth of the "Nine Grades of the Righteous Method", a hierarchical gap has already been drawn between the gate valve family and the Hanmen Shu clan, and the most fundamental factor causing this gap is precisely because of the huge difference in the way of knowledge acquisition......
The largest bookseller in Chang'an City is the Chu family.
Qiantang Chu family.
Although Chu Suiliang was belittled from Beijing by His Majesty Li Er, His Majesty Li Er loved his calligraphy and recalled him to Chang'an for a reason. The Chu family was originally a wealthy family in Qiantang, and firmly stood in the faction of the Guanlong aristocracy, and was strongly supported by the eldest grandson Wuji, and had already become one of the "Eighteen Bachelors of the Qin Palace" when his father Chu Liang entered the Qin Wangfu Literature Museum, and the Chu family has become the largest bookseller in Chang'an City.
At this moment, in a warehouse on the dock, Chu Suiliang's eldest son Chu Yanfu was directing the servants to move out the books piled up in the warehouse.
The Chu family is the largest bookseller in Guanzhong, with dozens of shops all over the counties in Guanzhong, and the sales of books and paper are very large. The printing industry in Jiangnan is developed, there are many craftsmen in engraving and good craftsmanship, and the workshops of Jiangnan papermaking are dense, so that the price of books in Jiangnan is much lower than that in Guanzhong, so the Chu family buys tens of thousands of books from Jiangnan every year.
The number of books stored in this warehouse alone has reached more than 2,000, and the paper is innumerable, forming a small mountain......
It's worth tens of thousands.
"Da Lang, why are you in such a hurry? Books are better, easy to take and easy to put away, so much paper, it's too much trouble to move, in case there is a loss along the way, isn't it a loss of money? ”
The manager of the bookstore complained while directing the servants to do their work.
Although this eldest man is the eldest son of the head of the family and the natural heir of the Chu family in the future, it does not mean that the servants in the family approve of him.
In the eyes of the bookstore manager, everyone in the world says that Fang Jun is the first "mallet" in Chang'an, which is really an exaggeration, at least his own eldest man is not inferior to Fang Jun at all, no courage, no responsibility, a belly of straw, needless to say, it would be a tragedy if there was no gold and jade......
Chu Yanfu wiped a handful of sweat, although there are vents in the warehouse, but this hour is the hottest time of the day, the autumn tiger is raging, so many people are walking around and sweating, he is not comfortable.
Hearing this, he said angrily: "Do you think a certain idle person has nothing to do?" It wasn't that my father ordered a certain person to come and transport these books and papers away quickly, so as not to be burned by Fang Junna's annoyance and shame. ”
The bookstore manager was taken aback: "Why is that?" Just because we refuse to join the 'revitalization society'? ”
Chu Yanfu snorted and said triumphantly: "Of course, Fang Er's mallet has been showing off his power all day long, and this time he was slapped in the face by us booksellers, how much did he lose people?" It's about to become a laughing stock in Chang'an City, so it's inevitable to be annoyed and angry. ”
The bookstore manager suddenly realized this, but he didn't think that Fang Jun could retaliate so madly: "Even if you are annoyed and angry, you won't be so ignorant, right?" Besides, this is not our family's business, the booksellers in the entire Guanzhong have boycotted him, is it possible that they can still find the past one by one and take revenge one by one? ”
"Huh, not really? In the eyes of Fang Er, there is nothing to do! That mallet went crazy, and even Wang Fa didn't care about it, what about the eldest grandson? How's the performance of Qiu Shen? Not all of them were killed by him! Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and be prepared. ”
Chu Yanfu said.
He used to be dissatisfied with Fang Jun, and outsiders said that he was talented and amazing, but in Chu Yanfu's opinion, he was just a mallet who could ask boring questions such as "trimming twenty-five nails in a quarter of an hour".
But since the death of the eldest grandson and Qiu Shenji, Chu Yanfu was afraid.
Fang Jun is a fierce man!
In the past, what kind of conflict did the gentlemen have, and when they stood up to the sky, they made an appointment to fight fiercely outside the city, and it was just a bloody fight, where did someone sneak down on the dead hand when they didn't get along, and they had to lose someone's life?
Thinking about the grievances he once had with Fang Jun, he couldn't help but shout luck......
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the warehouse.
"Who are you?"
"What do I ask you to say?"
"Ahh Put things down! ”
"Come on, someone, someone robs in broad daylight!"
"Let it go! This is the Chu family's thing, you dare to rob it, don't die...... Oops! ”
"You, you, how do you beat people...... Oops, help! ”
There was a burst of shouting and scolding outside, and it was a mess.
Chu Yanfu in the warehouse was taken aback, the second secret passage room is really here?
Hurriedly followed the bookstore steward out of the warehouse, and suddenly his eyes were split!
The open space in front of the warehouse has been surrounded by dozens of strong men, and a group of people have punched and kicked their slaves. Where are the slaves the opponents of these big men? was knocked down in an instant, and the sound of crying father and mother was endless.
Chu Yanfu was furious, stepped forward and shouted: "Stop it!" Who are you, and if there is no royal law, how dare you beat people in broad daylight? ”
However...... No one paid any attention to him.
Chu Yanfu was so angry that he went crazy, but he didn't dare to step forward, he was powerless, if he rushed forward, how did he know that these people would not dare to fight him together?
Just as he was scolding and shouting, the fighting had stopped, and the servants of the Chu family fell to the ground, rolling in pain and wailing.
Chu Yanfu said loudly: "Hurry up and report to the official, I still don't believe it, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is no royal law?" ”
The Chu family is not small, and it is also quite influential in the court, but it is only a family of Wenchen, and in the face of a group of unreasonable barbarians, there is no way except to report to the official.
The unreasonable men did not speak, rolled up their sleeves, and drove the wagon full of books and papers to the river, and then untied the ropes that bound the cart, and as soon as two or three men competed, they pushed all the stacks of books and papers into the river.
"Puff" "Puff"
Chu Yanfu's eyes were cracked, and he trembled with anger!
I wanted to step forward to stop but didn't dare, so I had to jump away and scold: "Bastard, are you crazy?" That's all books! Do you know how much these books are worth? ”
Among the other parties, a young man with a young face who was headed by him rolled his eyes, stood up, raised his chin high, and said proudly: "Lao Tzu cares how much you are worth?" Your family has broken the face of His Royal Highness the King of Wei of our family, let's teach you a lesson on the orders of His Royal Highness, not discounting your family's legs is already considered benevolent to His Royal Highness, and you dare to make noise? ”
Chu Yanfu was taken aback, it was actually King Wei's person?
