Li Zhengming hurriedly added: "The clothes and softness you originally placed in the women's army have been stored in the treasury, and you can go to the criminal department to go through the formalities and take them away; The first weaving mill in the palace is about to start, there are a hundred looms, three hundred palace maids, the second lady wants you to manage it, twenty times a month, and the bonus of a carriage can be advanced in the first year. ”

Gongsun Huilan realized that it is also difficult to reject others, especially when the other party has considered everything for you, and some tough words are difficult to say; When did Yuan Xiren's mind become so meticulous, Gongsun Huilan could only say to Li Zhengming helplessly: "Then thank you to the two ladies and the Duke of Yue Guo, there is Master Lao Li running, I agreed to this errand." ”

Li Zhengming smiled understandingly: "Before coming, Yue Guogong told a story, saying that a girl saved a wild cat, and after a few days, there would be a dead fish or two dead mice at the door of her house every morning, the girl was very angry, and vowed to find the ghost, after two days of observation, the girl finally found that these things were sent by the rescued wild cat." Life is sometimes so cruel, and the kindness of others may not be what you need. ”

Li Xiujing on the side was really taken aback, Yang Chong's little story is full of philosophy, doesn't it mean that Yang Chong is a craftsman and hasn't read any scriptures? Gongsun Huilan didn't seem to be surprised, and thanked him: "Thank you Lord Li for spreading the word, it seems that Yue Guogong is not a person who doesn't understand women, but really not a person who has a long relationship with children." But it's okay, Yue Guogong is so busy now, I won't come to thank you. ”

Yang Chong himself is discussing the selection of books with Gai Wenyi, the director of the library, Wei Yi, the editor-in-chief of Chang'an Newspaper, Kong Yingda, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Yu Zhining, a doctor of Taixue. Yang Chong divided Li Tang's Qi Wangfu into two, the front main gate was changed to Chang'an Library, and the back third was changed to Chang'an Museum.

After reading Gai Wenyi's plan, Yang Chong said with some dissatisfaction: "The library is open to the people of Chang'an, I think the scriptures should be reduced, regardless of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, all the same, so as not to become the focus of controversy among the various versions, the books that the people read are mostly in music, chariots and horses, boats, Zhiwei, astronomy, medicine, and miscellaneous families, even if it is prose, poetry, calligraphy, and pictures." ”

Kong Yingda smiled and nodded in agreement, Buddhism itself is endless, there are more than a dozen versions of any Confucian classic in circulation, it is enough to accuse each other in Buddhism, Taoism, and Guozijian, and there is no need to involve the common people. Gai Wenyi thought for a while and said: "These books are estimated to be only more than 4,000 copies, and the number is still not enough. It is better to arrange for someone to continue to compile it, while binding the book that has been compiled. ”

In the third year of the emperor's reign, the secretary and supervisor Niu Hong proposed "to extort the power of the sky, to introduce a small profit", that is, the policy of carrots and sticks to widely solicit books from the people, stipulating that every time the book donor donated a book, he could get a silk reward, and the imperial court only used it to proofread and transcribe copies after getting the book, and the original was still completely returned to Zhao. This greatly mobilized the enthusiasm of the people to donate books, and the imperial court also obtained a large number of books, and in the past 20 years, the collection of books in the Jiaze Palace of Chang'an has as many as 370,000 volumes.

After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he sent people to review and revise this huge number of books, transcribe copies, and collect them in the Guanwen Hall by category, the scriptures and historical books were stored in the east wing, the sub-books and collected books were stored in the west wing, and the Buddhist and Taoist scriptures were separately catalogued; The number of secretaries in charge of the book sorting work has increased to 120, which is on an equal footing with the palace province, Shangshu province, Menxia province, and Neishi province, and the secretary and supervisor have also been changed from the third rank to the second rank official, and Liu Guyan and Yu Shinan have served as the officials.

Liu and Yu wrote a large number of books, including scriptures, Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, music, chariots and horses, boats, etc., among which the more famous ones are "Changzhou Jade Mirror" and "Ou Yu Tuzhi". "Changzhou Jade Mirror" is based on the compilation of "Hualin Quanlu" compiled by Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty, a total of 400 volumes, a total of 129 volumes, "Ou Yu Tuzhi" a total of 129 volumes, statistics of local customs, products, geography and other conditions and compiled a national chronicle of the Tujing.

"Beitang Book Banknote" is the third masterpiece, but unfortunately because of the attack on Liaodong and the war, most of the compilation was shelved; Yu Shinan is now Dou Jiande's Huangmen squire, so naturally it is impossible to do this, so he can only find someone else. Yang Chong understood as soon as he heard it, Gai Wenyi was euphemistically reminding himself that it was time to re-establish the secretary and superintendent and erect a god behind the library; Yang Chong looked at Kong Yingda and said: "Brother Kong, Wang Tong and Chu Liang are preparing for the imperial examination immediately, and it is estimated that they will not be able to withdraw for a while, and Yu Xuan and Wei Yi will not be able to pull away, otherwise you will deign." ”

Kong Yingda laughed and said: "The waiter of the Ministry of Rites is only the fourth grade, you are demoting the secretary and supervisor back to the third grade, and I am also promoted two levels in a row and become a powerful person, so I can't say that I am condescending." However, I have a condition, to transfer Yu Bao to the secretary province, some things still need an acquaintance to be better, "Beitang Book Banknote" let Yu Bao finish compiling. ”

Yang Chong agreed, Yu Bao was already on the way back to Chang'an, and he was originally asked to go to the Provincial Province to serve as the author Lang, who was responsible for compiling the book, but now he will change it to the secretary Lang; As for the secretary department, since it was established, the province of writings, libraries, museums, the Jiaze Hall, and the Guanwen Hall were all placed under the secretary department.

In fact, since the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, the author of the province has always been in charge of the author Lang, who is in charge of the history of the people, the name is a little better, and there is no power at all, and the current author Lang Li Gang Yang Chong is not at ease, and Kong Yingda is arranged on it, which is somewhat of a supervision. Kong Yingda is a big-hearted person, and he didn't worry about Li Gang's reputation at all, and the two talked and laughed about this matter, and the positions of the secretary and the secretary were vacant first.

This is Yang Chong's consistent practice, after the shelf is set up, how many things are set up and how many people are set up, so as not to float people; Yu Zhining made a suggestion: "Guogong, it is better to put historical books such as "Historical Records" and hundreds of ancient books in history in the library, which not only increases the content of the books, but also does not let people gossip. ”

What gossip is to accuse Yang Chong of not paying attention to the scriptures, but Confucianism and Taoism itself are part of the hundred schools of thought, and many people really can't do anything about it. Gai Wenyi quickly calculated and said: "In this way, you can add 5,000 volumes, barely to 10,000 copies, and the bookshelf in Building 1 should be enough, so I'm worried that the 500 tables are not enough." ”
