Chapter 171: Four fat people, don't stay in Chang'an

Li Sipang read while watching, and exclaimed: "Good words, good words." The words are subtle, the words are majestic, and innovation can be self-contained. There is also this word, which is full of philosophy of life and the nature of nature. ”

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Your Highness said this word well, it can be described as a good eye. This is the teacher's earnest teaching, and I will keep it in mind at the next time. ”

"It turned out to be the words of the immortal." Li Sifat's head nodded again and again, and said with emotion: "The strange way has no vulgar atmosphere, and it is not a truth that Qi Lin can realize at such an age. ”

"Your Highness may comprehend?" Xu Qilin spoke a little unpolitely, and asked with a smile.

"This-" Li Sipang was stunned for a moment, and said, "It's really ashamed that Lone can't comprehend it all." ”

Xu Qilin thought for a while, and then asked: "Does Your Highness think that the way of literature is the same as governing the country through the state?" ”

Li Sipang raised his head, looked at Xu Qilin thoughtfully, and said after a while: "It should be different." ”

Xu Qilin pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, and said: "Your Highness is in Chang'an, may you observe the government or the government?" ”

Li Sipang frowned and replied honestly, "No." ”

Xu Qilin smiled faintly and said: "Your Majesty is in full bloom, and the ministers are wholeheartedly loyal, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be like this, and the prince should be equally loyal." ”

This sounds fine, but when you analyze it carefully, it's not that simple.

Xu Qilin meant to tell Li Sipang, don't say that if you stay away from the Jingshi and the ministers of the DPRK and China, there will be no friendship, and no one will be willing to work. Even if you are in Chang'an, how many ministers will make their positions clear and support you?

His Majesty Li Er is in the prime of life, and there is only one emperor in the world, loyalty to His Majesty Li Er is the greatest political correctness, and even taking refuge in the crown prince is actually a problem, not to mention that you are just a prince?

Which of the really high-powered ministers is not a human spirit? Who dares to easily get involved in the emperor's family affairs? Only villains who tend to be inflammatory, and who are not yet ambitious, think of political speculation and come to take refuge.

Li Sipang sat down slowly, falling into a long contemplation.

He understood what Xu Qilin meant, first, he said that he was good at literature but had no experience in governance; The second is that he can't stay in Chang'an and can't follow His Majesty Li Er, and it doesn't do much good to watch and decide on the government or the government; The third pointed out that if you are worried about staying away from the Beijing division and not being able to make friends with the ministers, you are simply thinking too much.

Look at Li Zhi in history, the fisherman profited, and after the pie smashed to the head, he also had no friendship with the ministers of the DPRK and China, and he had no political experience.

But His Majesty Li Er single-handedly supported his young son, how could he not work hard to build a team to assist?

Look, the eldest grandson Wuji is the prince and the prince, Sikong and the prince of Liang Guofang Xuanling are the princes, the princes of the Song Kingdom Xiao Yu are the princes and the princes, and the military department is Shangshu and the British prince Li Ji is the prince Zhan Shi.

Then, Li Daliang, the general of the left guard, led the right guard, the former Zhan Shi Yu Zhining, the Zhongshu Shilang Ma Zhou as the left concubine, the official servant Su Miao, and the Zhongshu Sheren Gao Jifu as the right concubine, and the criminal department attendant Zhang Xing became the Shao Zhan Shi, and the counselor Chu Suiliang was the guest......

This lineup, luxurious, dazzling, right?! It can really be said that they are complete in civil and military affairs, and they are all top talents and famous ministers.

And in order to make up for Li Zhi's shortcomings of living in the deep palace for a long time and having little experience, His Majesty Li Er took him with him to teach him by word and deed. When he was in the court, he let Li Zhi stand on the side and watch the decision, or order the senators.

All this shows only one truth. The emperor's will and attitude determine everything, and you yourself are worrying about it and messing around, and it is useless.

After thinking about it, this first one, Li Si was fat and admitted. People are not wrong, he is indeed famous for his love of literature as a good man, and he holds the official position of Yongzhou pastor, but he does not manage actual affairs, and of course he has no experience in governance.

The second one, although it is unpleasant and unpleasant, is also true. With the crown prince Li Chengqian here, it is impossible for His Majesty Li Er to let him watch the government or participate in the government affairs, so doesn't it make it clear that he wants to train another successor?

As for the third article, Li Sipang really felt that the "country of no" was the favor of his father, and it also gave him the opportunity to get close to the ministers of the court.

But Xu Qilin's conclusion gave him a head start, and if you think about it carefully, there is really no intention that the ministers of the DPRK and China have expressed their support. Chai Lingwu, the weight is not enough, far from enough, Li Sipang also knows that he has a plan.

Li Sipang smiled bitterly, if there is really a minister of the DPRK and China, I am afraid it will not be a good thing for himself. What would my father think of such a minister, and what would he think of himself?

Did you really think wrong and do it wrong? Li Sipang let out a long sigh and looked at Xu Qilin with hope.

Enlightened? With this big head, big fat face, and this round body, can you really understand your deep meaning?

Xu Qilin looked back at Li Sipang, and he didn't know if his words made Li Sipang completely wake up.

"Qi Lin, where is this king going?" Li Sipang arched his hand and said sincerely: "Please also ask me?" ”

Xu Qilin hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Your Highness is smart and has his own decisions. The lower officials are shallow, so what advice do you have? ”

After a pause, he added, "If you are compiling the Chronicles of the Earth, why not? If you want to experience, the lower officials think that Xiang, Wei, Li, Wei, Wei, Xing, and Bei Zhuzhou are very good. ”

Li Sipang Yao led the governor of Xiangzhou, and the seven states mentioned by Xu Qilin were his jurisdiction.

The specific area includes Anyang, Weihui, Nanle, Qingfeng and other counties in Henan Province in later generations, Daming, Wei County, Guantao, Xingtai and other places in Hebei, and Guanxian, Xin County, Yanggu and other counties in Shandong.

This area is part of the North China Plain, with bright prospects for agricultural development, and it is also an important production base of grain, cotton and oil for the country in later generations.

If this area can be managed well, whether it is grain production or cotton planting, it will provide sufficient materials for the conquest of Goryeo, but it will be a great achievement.

Of course, Xu Qilin didn't say so deeply. In addition to the governor of Xiangzhou, Li Sipang also has the governor of Yangzhou, the governor of Yanzhou, and the governor of Yuezhou.

Li Sipang really didn't decide immediately, after all, this is a big deal, and there will always be some hesitation.

Xu Qilin's words ended here, and they can be regarded as benevolent and righteous. Even if Li Sipang is a big mouth, it is not a big deal to spread this word.

I didn't sip you for rebellion, and I didn't teach you to harm people, and I persuaded your country and you to go to the local area to observe the people's suffering, which is quite normal.

Didn't His Majesty Li Er just want to block the advice of the ministers, so he gave Li Sipang an official position as a Yongzhou pastor?

"Out of Qi Lin's mouth, into the ears of this king, no one else in this world knows." Li Sipang also saw Xu Qilin's caution and immediately reassured him.

After a pause, Li Sipang said with emotion: "Qi Lin can tell him frankly today, and this king is very grateful. Well, apart from talking about poetry and literature, no one has been able to analyze this king so clearly. ”

That's what you did when you recruited so many scribes? There is no powerful strategist, no one can see that this Chang'an is a place of right and wrong?

Xu Qilin pouted secretly and got up to say goodbye. This time, Li Sipang was personally delivered to the door, showing courtesy and gratitude.

…………….

The sun at dusk will be gone, and the afterglow will be fading and fading.

In the garden, the god of Yuchi Men sat in the gazebo, his thick fingers scribbling on the strings of the lute, playing a tune that others did not understand.

This picture is very disobedient! If Xu Qilin saw it, I am afraid that he would fall out of his eyes and drop his jaw in shock. This is the fierce general of the three armies, and this is the majestic door god?

In fact, this is the old door god's later life. In order to kill time, learn to entertain yourself. It's just that there seems to be a sense of Zhang Fei's embroidery.

Closing the door to thank the guests, first, the old door god was admonished by His Majesty Li Er and had to restrain his behavior; Another reason is that I don't have many friends.

Because Wei Chi Jingde was proud of his achievements, he used to see Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and others, and often ridiculed them in person and discussed their strengths and weaknesses. Sometimes he even argued fiercely at court, and the relationship with these people gradually deteriorated.

The old door god was playing a tune that he didn't know what to say, and the youngest son, Wei Chihuan, commanded his subordinates and carried tables and chairs into the garden.

"Father, the furniture has been shipped back." Yu Chihuan happily said to his father: "The woodware shop also gave away two rocking chairs for free, just for you and your mother." ”

Yu Chimen God stopped playing, put the pipa aside, walked out of the pavilion, circled around the two rocking chairs, picked the heavy and sturdy one to sit up, and leaned down in the shaking.

"Comfortable, right?" Yu Chihuan smiled and lay down in another rocking chair.

Wei Chimenshen's eyes were half-closed, and he said faintly: "Although the old man is closed, he doesn't know anything. I heard that the people of the Chai Ling Wu family wanted to rob our family's customized furniture, and they were beaten up by Xu Qilin and others? ”

Yu Chihuan said disapprerovingly: "There is such a thing. Brother Qi Lin is also righteous, and he does not hesitate to offend Chai Lingwu. ”

Wei Chimen God snorted and said, "You think too simply. That Xu Qilin is obviously to protect our family, but in fact, he is using the old man as a valve. Fortunately, the matter is not big, and it also lets outsiders know that although the old man is closed, not everyone can bully him. ”

Looking at Er's confused eyes, Yu Chimen God rolled his eyes and scolded: "Why do you give away two rocking chairs for nothing, you can't even understand this?" ”

Yu Chihuan blinked his eyes and said tentatively, "Are you thanking your father, or are you apologizing?" ”

Well! Yu Chimenshen leaned back on the rocking chair again, and only said after a while: "Learn from Xu Qilin, this guy has a lot of eyes!" ”

Yu Chihuan laughed twice and said, "What my father taught me is that the child knows. ”

Yu Chimen Shen exhaled a long breath lightly and said, "Call him over another day, and the old man will ask about the cultivation of the Tao." ”

"He doesn't cultivate." Yu Chihuan replied stupidly.

Wei Chimen glared angrily and reprimanded: "Doesn't he have a master master who cultivates, how much should he know the method of alchemy?" ”

"Yes, yes, the boy almost forgot." Yu Chihuan hurriedly agreed, "I'll go to him tomorrow, and I'll definitely satisfy my father." ”

Yu Chimen snorted, his expression relaxed, and he closed his eyes slightly, feeling very comfortable in the rocking chair.

…………….

Xu Qilin did take advantage of the god of Wei Chimen, although it was not a big deal, and it was not all made up and picked, but he still gave two rocking chairs for nothing to apologize.

This is his way of doing things, it is his own no, no matter how young he is, he can recognize it; It's not your own, and you can't force it.

Moreover, from this incident, Xu Qilin realized a kind of power, a means to deter others without using force.

This other person is the powerful, the nobles, those who care about fame, and of course the sanctimonious people.

The power of public opinion, even if it cannot cover the ordinary people who are illiterate, word of mouth is extremely powerful. And this power, obviously, no one has yet understood and mastered it, and it can surpass Xu Qilin.

And the carrier of public opinion must be the newspaper undoubtedly. But to be recognized, to open up popularity, but also to start from business, and then gradually transition to comprehensive.

Advertising, as advertised, has been around since ancient times, although it is not the same as in modern society.

For example, the simplest shouting can be called a shouting advertisement, or a primitive form of sound as an advertising element.

There are also restaurants in the Han Dynasty that will build empty large wine jars into high platforms, called "Yuan". And select young and beautiful women, stand on the wall, attract the attention of passers-by, and beckon guests to come into the store to drink.

Similar to the signage hanging board placed by the business, the banners, lanterns, flags and other things hung high are called sign advertisements.

Then there is the use of beautiful store decoration to advertise, or the use of goods, flowers, colored cloth to tie tall arches, similar to the window display advertisements of modern stores.

Well, these forms of advertising can be adopted, but print media advertising is undoubtedly the first of its kind by Xu Qilin. Of course, this is just a test for future newspapers.

The next day, when Wei Chihuan found Xu Qilin, he was directing the staff of the workshop outside the city to print the "Book of Tea", using the lead movable type sent by Li Sipang.

500 copies were printed at a time, which was already a considerable amount at that time, and ordinary bookstores would never be able to take on such a big job.

But Xu Qilin has his own plans, and he is not worried about sales. Because, two hundred of them were handed over to the imperial court and distributed to officials in various tea-producing regions to promote the cultivation of tea; There are another hundred copies, which His Majesty Li Er gave to the princes and ministers, calling on them to drink tea together and enhance the elegant mood together.

In the end, the remaining 200 copies either entered the libraries of the comprehensive stores that were being built one after another, or they were sold normally and flowed into society.

You see, if you take a closer look like this, 500 copies is really not much. Xu Qilin even confidently predicted that "The Book of Tea" would be reprinted and reprinted in three editions.

"The specifications of the character molds are the same, so according to what the official wrote, fifty will be cast each." Xu Qilin summoned the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to cast character molds for Li Sipang, and instructed them to cast Arabic numerals, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division symbols.

The craftsmen couldn't read and didn't know each other, but they didn't talk much either. Let them do whatever they want, whatever their identity, is to complete the work according to the officials' instructions and according to the requirements.
