Chapter 42: Li Tai visits the Hou Mansion again

I have to admit that Xuan Shijing feels that he really underestimated the group of people in his house, they are all talents, look at our personal little maid, fourteen years old, she can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, and she can be literate and martial.

This also made Xuan Shijing more and more curious about the Erxianzhuang that he had never been to, and only knew about Erxianzhuang after watching "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", but he didn't expect to become his own door, listening to Long'er say this, Xuan Shijing felt that this Erxianzhuang did not look like the chief scoop on the green forest road in the past, but it was a bit of a conscience, but also, Zhenguan Shengshi has kicked off, if Erxianzhuang is still the same as before, His Majesty Li Er can't rub this kind of sand in his eyes.

"That's right, Long'er, come, sit opposite, look for it with me, you must have heard what I said to Uncle Zhong just now, in the coming year, we will build a reservoir in Zhuangzi, and dig a river, and the silver money invested in this is indispensable, this paper workshop will become a day sooner, and the silver money in our hands can withstand a day." Xuan Shijing opened a book and said to Long'er while rummaging.

Long'er naturally understood the truth of this, and didn't ask any more, picking up the books on the table to help Xuan Shijing rummage through them together.

Looking for these materials is the most boring, Xuan Shijing didn't have a good rest last night, and now he is yawning even more with the book, and the eyes that look at the book are stunned, and in the end, his head began to knock on the bookcase.

Xuan Shijing couldn't stand it anymore now, so he put down the book and said to Xuan Shijing: "Little Marquis, if you are sleepy, just sleep for a while, just leave these things to Long'er." ”

Xuan Shijing really couldn't hold on, closed the book, and said, "Okay, then you continue to look for this, I'll lie down and squint for a while." After saying that, he lay down on the desk and fell asleep.

Long'er looked at Xuan Shijing who was sleeping on the desk and couldn't help but smile, her own little marquis sometimes doesn't look like a child, whose child would worry about making money for the family at such a young age, and allocate money to the village door to store water and dig a river; But sometimes, the Hou Ye of his own family is indeed a child.

Long'er got up gently, took the thick velvet coat that was put aside, and gently draped it on Xuan Shijing's body, then moved her limbs, stretched her waist, and sat opposite Xuan Shijing, and continued to look at the Han book, after reading two books in a row, and then when she opened the third book, Long'er's eyes lit up.

At the beginning, these big characters are written: Later Han Book? Biography of the eunuchs.

After carefully checking for a while, I finally found "The Biography of Cai Lun", after reading it, Long'er looked deflated, spread the book on the table, and sighed, there is no other, but the book is too general about papermaking.

Since ancient times, the book deed is mostly made of bamboo slips, and those who use silk are called paper. It is expensive and simple, and it is not convenient for people. Lun Nai made (invented, created) with tree skin, hemp and cloth. Fishing nets are thought to be paper. In the first year of Yuanxing, it was played. The emperor is good at his ability, and he is indispensable to use, so the world is called 'Cai Hou paper.'

Glancing at Xuan Shijing, who was still asleep, Long'er was slightly disappointed, Hou Ye had such great expectations for papermaking, but he was busy for most of the day before he found such information......

Long'er got up, carefully picked up Xuan Shijing, and carried him into the couch in the study, he could only let Xuan Shijing sleep here tonight, it was cold outside, in case he went out and suffered the cold, it would be worth the loss.

Open the window of the study slightly, take a walk around the carbon gas in the room, Long'er burned the charcoal in the brazier more vigorously, went to the outside room, extinguished the candle, and Long'er also slept on the couch in the outer room.

Early the next morning, as soon as Xuan Shijing started breakfast, Xiao Ji ran into the backyard in a hurry.

"Little Hou Ye, Little Hou Ye~~~" while running, he shouted to find Xuan Shijing's figure.

Xuan Shijing picked up a pie, walked out of the door of the living room, stood in front of the door, and looked at Xiao Ji who was running towards this side in a hurry: "Slow down, our house is not on fire yet." After saying that, he took a bite of the pie in his hand.

Xiao Ji trotted all the way to Xuan Shijing's body, and because he was running too quickly, he stopped for a while, still panting for breath.

"Look at you, what's the hurry, slowly, let's rest for a while, the devil has entered the village?" Xuan Shijing teased.

Xiao Ji rubbed his chest, took a breath, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Little Marquis, His Royal Highness King Wei has come down." ”

"Who?" Xuan Shijing swallowed the pie in his mouth with difficulty: "King Wei? Li Tai? ”

Xiao Ji nodded.

Coming to deliver money? Xuan Shijing's eyes emitted a glittering light, but it made Xiao Ji jump.

"Hurry up and please go to the front hall, good tea, good water, good food and good drink." Xuan Shijing instructed: "Long'er, tell me to go down and collect this breakfast, don't eat it, I will go to see King Wei, maybe there will be something to gain." ”

"Yes, little marquis." Long'er replied.

When I got up in the morning, Xuan Shijing saw the description of Cai Lun's improvement of paper in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty that Long'er found yesterday, it was too little, Xuan Shijing didn't forget, yesterday Li Tai promised him in the house, to help find some classics about papermaking or something, although Li Tai is young, but he is also very knowledgeable, if he helps, he will get twice the result with half the effort.

With an indifferent smile, facing the newborn rising sun, the golden light sprinkled on Xuan Shijing's small body, in Long'er's eyes, there was more holiness added to the plain whiteness, like a little immortal from the sky. Long'er shook her head, and then looked at the smile on Xuan Shijing's face, she was obviously a little fox, how could she mistake herself for an immortal.

Xuan Shijing walked into the hall of the front yard with a smile on his face and bowed to Li Tai.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Wei."

"Shijing doesn't have to be polite." Li Tai stepped forward to convince Xuan Shijing: "I came today, firstly, to send you the money promised to you yesterday, and secondly, it is naturally your paper-making matter, speaking of which, I have a reluctant request." "Li Tai did not call himself the king or lonely in front of Xuan Shijing, but called himself me, such an approachable Li Tai, but made Xuan Shijing refresh his impression of Li Tai again.

"Your Highness, please speak." Xuan Shijing looked at Li Tai and wondered in his heart, what did Li Tai have to do with himself?

"It's not a big deal, I just hope that after the papermaking workshop is completed, I can personally participate in the production of this new paper." Li Tai said.

Xuan Shijing was stunned, Li Tai wants to make paper himself? Although he was puzzled, he was still very happy in his heart, after all, Li Tai was a cultural person compared to himself, and replied with a smile: "I can't ask for it, but Shijing doesn't understand, why does His Royal Highness deign to develop this new paper in person?" ”
