After a long while, Wei Ren really wiped his mouth and burped after eliminating three bowls of barbecue bibimbap.

Then he saluted Li Yu and said: "Thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for giving me food, the minister has never eaten such delicious rice, and he was hungry for two meals in a row, so he lost his politeness in front of His Highness, and I ask His Highness for forgiveness!" ”

But it was the old minister's negligence. Although Renshi is precocious, he is still young in the end, so he naturally will not endure hunger as his ministers. Bachelor Gao said beside him: "The old minister only cared about verifying Renshi's method, but he forgot that Renshi was already hungry for two meals. ”

Li Yu showed a look of surprise, looked at Master Gao, and was surprised by his words to protect Wei Renshi.

I can't help but ask, "Verify?" What is the method of verification? ”

"Your Royal Highness, Your Highness should also know that since ancient times, most of the world's books have been hidden in the family, and since the founding of our dynasty, we have attached great importance to the collection of books and repaired books, and the Hongwen Museum and the Chongwen Museum have the heavy responsibility of repairing books. Later, there were two capitals of Jixian Hall Academy, which widely collected the world's classics to compile, sort, proofread and preserve. Bachelor Gao said: "Even so, it is still difficult for students in the world to have books to read. In the two halls, students' textbooks also need to be copied down. ”

"Engraving and printing books are extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to publish new books in the world. There are ancient classics, but they can only be copied by hand, and they cannot be widely disseminated. ”

"There are no books for students all over the world to read, because hand-copying is not conducive to wide dissemination, and printing is extremely time-consuming and laborious."

Bachelor Gao said to Li Yu excitedly: "Now, this problem has been solved by Wei Shengrenshi!" ”

"Oh?!" Li Yu's expression was solemn, and he hurriedly asked, "How to solve it?" ”

Bachelor Gao said: "Today's engraving and printing books have three disadvantages. A book often has thousands of words, and it takes a craftsman to engrave it page by page before it can be printed, which takes a lot of time and energy. Among them, there is a word in the book that has been changed, or there is a word carved wrongly, and the previous engraving plate can no longer be used at all, but can only be re-engraved, and this is the second thing. Where there are different classics, it is necessary to engrave countless engravings, and when it is cumbersome, this is also the third. ”

"Now, Renshi has offered a method to change the engraving to movable type, and these three will be solved immediately!" As he spoke, Bachelor Gao took out the movable characters and molds he brought: "Your Highness, please watch the old minister demonstrate for His Highness!" ”

After speaking, Mr. Gao picked out the movable type to spell out the plate as he demonstrated in the afternoon, and demonstrated that if there is a typo in the middle, he only needs to take out the word and replace it with the corresponding pair, but there is no need to re-engrave the engraving.

"Wonderful!" After watching Bachelor Gao's demonstration, Li Yu immediately slapped his thigh and said, "That's the case!" I don't know how much better this method is than the engraving! ”

"Your Highness, the words commonly used are only thousands. If these commonly used words are carved ready-made, they will be carved into several sets. With a few sets of characters, you can print as many books as you can at the same time. There is no need to make engraving at all, just pick out the words you need and put them together, and it will immediately become a 'engraving', after printing, put the words back again, and next time you need to pick out the words that do not work. Wei Renshi added next to him: "In this way, no matter whether it is a new book written by a person or a previous classic, it can be printed in such a large number." ”

Li Yu turned his head to stare at Wei Renshi, his expression was very complicated.

After a while, he spoke: "Wei Sheng, Wei Sheng, you are really surprised by the orphan!" How did you come up with this? ”

Without waiting for Wei Renshi to speak, he continued: "As soon as this skill comes out, all students in the world will be favored by you, and everyone who will study in the future will thank you!" ”

"The minister also thought of it by luck. If there is really a time to benefit students all over the world, it is thanks to the discerning eyes of His Royal Highness and the owner of the museum, so that this method will not be buried. Wei Ren bowed and replied.

"Hahahaha, why should Wei Sheng be modest." Li Yu said with a smile: "This matter is very important, Gu will go to his father early tomorrow morning." Wei Shengcai was awarded the title of Weinan County Male for meritorious service, how long has it been since he came to Chang'an, and he has made such a great contribution! Father is afraid that he will be worried about how to reward Wei Sheng. ”

"Don't dare." Wei Renshi replied.

"Father's reward is father's, as the master of the East Palace alone, there is Wei Sheng in the Chongwen Pavilion who has made great contributions, and he should also be rewarded." Li Yu said again: "How can Wei Sheng reward him if he wants to be lonely?" ”

The emperor's reward is the reward for merit.

As for Li Chan, it's just a meaning.

After all, the Chongwen Pavilion belongs to the East Palace, and the crown prince is the lord of the East Palace, so he is naturally also the master of the Chongwen Pavilion. The students in the Chongwen Pavilion have made great contributions, and he has to express himself, but it is in the name of his own person, not the name of the imperial court.

So Wei Renshi smiled and said, "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked, the minister had the courage to speak." The minister doesn't want anything else, can His Royal Highness reward the minister with a few catties of rice? ”

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, looked at Wei Renshi very unexpectedly, and said in surprise: "Wei Sheng wants this?" ”

Wei Renshi nodded, and said: "The minister doesn't lack anything else, he just likes to eat rice, but the rice in Chang'an City is really expensive, and it tastes like chewing a mouth full of confetti, how can it be delicious here for His Highness, hehe......"

"Wei Sheng's mouth can really eat good things." Li Yu said with a smile: "These rice are not ordinary, but the Lucheng rice that the Bohai Kingdom pays tribute every year, its rice is as heavy as sand, bright as jade, the soup is like milk, overflowing with strong fragrance, it is the best rice." ”

Lu Chengdao? That's it!

Wei Renshi naturally heard of its name in later generations, the predecessor of the rice used in the state banquet.

But he heard Li Yu and said: "In this case, Gu will give Wei Sheng ten stones of Lucheng rice, and let people send it tomorrow." ”

Ten stones?

Isn't that going to have to be about 500 pounds?!

I didn't expect to give myself so much!

Wei Renshi was immediately overjoyed, and saluted: "Thank Your Highness the Crown Prince for your reward!" ”

"Humph! Just know how to eat mouths! An inopportune voice suddenly came, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Li Daizong'er looking at Wei Renshi with disdain. She was still dissatisfied that she hadn't tasted bibimbap just now.

Wei Renshi smiled, as if he hadn't heard, deliberately glanced at her, and said to Li Yu: "Your Highness, in fact, this rice is not only eaten by cooking porridge and steaming rice, but also knows some other ways to eat, but it is difficult to make it because there is no good rice." Now that you have been rewarded by Your Highness, you can make it, and when the time comes, you will definitely offer it to Your Highness to taste. ”

"Good! Looking at these barbecue things and condiments, you know that Wei Sheng's cooking skills must be good. Li Yu nodded and said with a smile.

Wei Renshi looked at Li Yu and felt a little sigh in his heart.

This person is not bad, it seems that the evaluation of him in the history books is not too exaggerated.

"Forgiveness and benevolence are decisive", when Fengtian is in trouble, when encountering war, he can also "take the lead, take the city to resist the war, supervise the soldiers, and excite the whole army", and can also "argue calmly, so the pawn does not appoint the prolongation and Qu Mu as the minister", persuading Dezong not to appoint traitors, and also using "good happiness and no waste" to persuade Dezong not to indulge in silk and bamboo palace mi, and "did not try to pretend to be eunuchs with color".

Later, Han Yu wrote a history book about Li Yu and commented: He has lived in the storage position for 20 years, and the world is given by it.

If he can live longer, Li Yu may not be able to bring prosperity to the Tang Dynasty after he ascends the throne.

It's a pity.

Sure enough, the body is the capital of the revolution!
