Xianyang, Huhai Mansion.

Hu Hai, who returned to the mansion from Zhangtai Palace, was already so angry that he gritted his teeth and was full of resentment.

The originally expected reversal, because of the Fusu paper-making incident, all failed, not only did Li Yang not take it from Fusu's camp, but now I am afraid that I can't even go on this game of chess.

As the eldest son, the reason why Fusu has not been canonized as the crown prince is because he is an incompetent person in the eyes of his father, so his father does not dare to easily entrust the future of Great Qin to his hands.

But today, Fusu's papermaking has completely subverted his father's previous view of him.

Thinking of his father's apologetic look in Zhangtai Palace just now, Hu Hai felt a burst of despair in his heart.

Today's father is completely impressed by Fusu, not only recognizing his talent, but also moved by his filial piety.

In this way, the father has no worries about Fusu, and the position of the crown prince is only a matter of time for Fusu.

Thinking of this, Hu Hai's heart was desolate, he turned his head to look at Zhao Gao, who was also lost, and said with a wry smile: "Is the teacher dead now?" ”

Zhao Gao glanced up at Hu Hai and persuaded, "Is the son so dead?" ”

Hu Hai smiled, but smiled a little sadly: "Does the teacher still think that we have a chance to win?" Didn't the teacher see that his father had already been impressed by Fusu? It is impossible to win, and there is no need to go on this game. ”

"It's just that Ben Gongzi really didn't expect that Li Yang is so capable, Fusu has just been his student for more than 20 days, and he relied on him to make paper, heh, I knew this earlier, Ben Gongzi should really worship him as a teacher before Fusu comes back, so how can there be today's defeat. Alas! Hu Hai smiled bitterly.

Zhao Gao also sighed in his heart.

In fact, since Li Yang worshiped the prime minister and opened the mansion to change the law, he had already thought about letting Hu Hai worship Li Yang as a teacher and draw this rising celebrity into his camp.

But......

At that time, when he was about to tell Hu Hai about this, it turned out that at this time, Li Yang came up with a "Public Law" that was contrary to the monarch, not only against the monarch, but also to prevent the emperor's most concerned about the Great Wall, Lishan, Afang and other projects, which for everyone, even if Li Yang had a hundred lives, it was not enough to die.

Therefore, at that time, Zhao Gao dispelled the idea of letting Hu Hai worship Li Yang as his teacher. After all, in the situation at that time, everyone was worried about being implicated by Li Yang and being convicted.

However, who knows what kind of sustainability development strategy he will come up with, and then nothing will happen.

As a result, because he didn't seize the opportunity to apprentice for the first time, he was given the first time by Fusu......

Thinking of this, Zhao Gao was also full of helplessness.

However, Zhao Gao did not regret it, if he did it again, he believed that he would still choose to do so.

It can only be said that all this is providential.

Sighing, Zhao Gao looked up at Hu Hai and said, "Childe, if you choose to give up, do you think you can enjoy the treatment of this prince of Qin State carefree in the future?" ”

Hu Hai was stunned for a moment, and said in confusion: "If the imperial brother becomes the emperor, will he really not be able to tolerate me?" ”

Zhao Gao sneered: "If you become the emperor, will you be able to tolerate him Fusu?" ”

Hu Hai was stunned.

Zhao Gao saw that Hu Hai didn't speak, and naturally the answer was already very obvious, so he said: "Since you chose the path of competing for the crown prince at the beginning, there is no turning back, and now you can either go down or wait for death." ”

Hu Hai was scared and said in a panic: "Then what should I do, my father has already recognized him, my father has approved him, I can't win the crown prince's position, the teacher saves me, this son doesn't want to die." ”

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai with a frightened face, his eyes narrowed slightly, and finally said coldly: "Don't panic, there is still a chance." Fusu has a few pounds and a few taels, and how much talent he has, we don't know. He made paper this time, and it was Li Yang who relied on it. As long as Li Yang is eliminated, he Fusu will immediately return to his original form, he was incompetent before, and he will still be incompetent in the future. ”

When Hu Hai heard this, he quickly nodded: "Yes, yes, the imperial brother relied on Li Zhongcheng this time, without him, the imperial brother is nothing, and he can't do anything." ”

Speaking of this, Hu Hai ignited a glimmer of hope again, but then he sighed again: "It's just that Li Zhongcheng has always been guarded by Yulin, and if we want to get rid of him, it's impossible at all." ”

Yes, I've tried it before, and I'm afraid it's hopeless to try again.

Zhao Gao didn't think so, sneered, and a touch of cunning appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Childe, do you know that sometimes people are too capable, and they are also fatal!" ”

As he said this, a trick slowly appeared in his mind......

"Li Yang, you have to die this time!"

…………

The days are still as usual, and the wind and waves are calm.

However, on this normal day, the entire gentry and aristocratic circle in Xianyang City are talking about one thing, that is, paper!

Yes, since the hundred or so ministers tried to write the music on paper in the morning, they were completely impressed by the merits of paper.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, they each returned to their official offices, and at the same time brought the news of the paper to their colleagues and subordinates, so that it was spread ten, ten to hundreds, and in just one day, the gentry and nobles of the entire Xianyang City were already known to everyone about paper.

The ministers who had used paper, when they used bamboo slips again, had reached the point where they had no intention of writing.

Those who have never used paper are full of curiosity and thirst for paper in the singing of everyone.

On this day, the news of the official sale of paper by the Ba Thi Commercial Bank was like a bomb, and it exploded in the circle of gentry and aristocrats in Xianyang City.

Suddenly, countless gentry and nobles rushed to buy it, and the supply exceeded demand.

Thousands of pounds of paper, in less than half a day, all of them were sold.

For a while, Xianyang paper is expensive.

The people who rushed to buy the paper were overjoyed, while countless people who came late had to return disappointed.

It's just that what Li Yang never dreamed of was that because of this incident, an idiom was born later, called "Xianyang paper is expensive"!

This idiom, at first, was just a description of scarcity, so it seemed precious and rare. However, later, the meaning of this idiom slowly changed, and it became to describe the demand for more than the supply, the shortage of goods and the price, this expensive, refers to the price of the expensive.

When Li Yang learned this idiom, he was simply a dog.

He had only heard that Luoyang paper was expensive, referring to Luoyang in the Western Jin Dynasty, because everyone was vying to copy Zuo Si's work "Sandu Fu", so that it was in short supply for a while, and the goods were short and expensive.

This Xianyang paper is expensive, what the hell is it!

Li Yang's face was black......

But that's all for later.

In other words, because the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee are all handling government affairs in the official office, they missed the opportunity to rush to buy paper, and they became stunned one by one.

In the end, some ministers decided to go directly to He Zhang to ask for paper.

As a result, there was not a single piece of paper left in the palace, and most of the original excess paper was sent to the palace by Fusu and given to the emperor, and a small part was looted by Li Zhongcheng.

The government office in the Xianyang Palace.

Today's Li Si is extraordinarily proud, next to someone else's desk, there is a cart of bamboo slips, but next to his desk is empty, just a stack of papers neatly placed on the desk.

The colleagues in the hall looked at his desk, and they all showed envy and jealousy.

Now among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, except for the emperor and Li Yang, he is the only one who has paper, which can make others envious.

There's no way, who told him to have a good son, he followed Li Yang on an errand, this time it's a big bargain, and there is endless paper.

Today, their task is to copy the new law and send it to the Xianyang Palace for sealing. This task is not an easy task for the minister who copied it in bamboo slips.

"I said everyone, can you copy it faster, you see that the picture has been waiting for you for almost half an hour, and after the copy is completed, we can send it to the emperor together." Li Si walked leisurely around the hall, urging these colleagues from time to time without thinking that it was a big deal.

The ministers and ministers in the government affairs department were all urged by him to want to scold their mothers.

Your uncle, can the transcription of bamboo slips compare to paper?

If you have the ability, don't use paper to copy, try to use bamboo slips instead?

It's just that because Li Si is the prime minister of Zuo, everyone is crazy when he urges them, but they dare to be angry and dare not speak.

However, Feng Qujian was different, when he heard that Li Si was in the game again, he was angry and didn't fight anywhere, he felt a little guilty today, obviously his son was also on an errand with Li Yang, but he didn't get him paper, so angry that he threw the bamboo slip on the ground, walked towards Li Si's desk, and said at the same time: "Li Si, lend me your paper first, and return it to you another day." ”

Of course Li Si refused, and directly stopped Feng Quji, who rushed over to grab the paper: "Feng Xiang, you...... You can't do this, where is the reason to grab paper. ”

"Won't you become a ...... if you pay it back another day?"

"No, I don't have much paper......"

“…………”

Just when the two of them were in the middle of grabbing the paper, Li You walked in with the new law, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be stunned, and asked, "Father, Feng Xiang, what are you doing?" ”

The two smiled awkwardly, Feng Qu snorted coldly, and said: "It's nothing, your father is too stingy, he refuses to borrow him a few pieces of paper, it's really stingy, don't learn from him in the future." ”

Li Si smiled bitterly: "This is one of the few that is true." ”

"You're grabbing paper?" Li You looked surprised, as if he felt unbelievable, and said: "Feng Xiang wants paper, just tell me, or just tell Feng Zheng, just go to Li Zhongcheng's mansion to get it." ”

"Li Zhongcheng's family has a lot of paper?" Feng Quji was attracted by these words.

Li Si also listened curiously.

Li Youdao: "It's not much, I don't know, anyway, Meng Tian and the people from the Tingwei Office are taking it, take it casually, and there will be it soon after they finish it." ”

"Take it directly? Take it all? ”

Both of them were stunned, and Feng Qujian hurriedly asked, "Don't you have to ask Li Zhongcheng?" Just go to his house and get it yourself? ”

Li You pouted: "Where do you want to go up to his house to get it, just go directly to his toilet to get it, there are a lot of paper miles in his thatched toilet, and Li Zhongcheng uses it to wipe his buttocks." ”

"What!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell down! Feng Qujian almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

They used paper as a treasure, but Li Yang used it to wipe his ass......

It's unreasonable!

It's a terrible thing!
