For many days, Wei Zheng commanded a group of craftsmen to carve square-shaped characters with great interest, and the characters used by Wei Guo inherited the large seal. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Each square text carved by craftsmen is not a single one, and the commonly used characters are often a dozen or even dozens, obviously, this is to adapt to the needs of typesetting, so that there are enough fonts when the same text is reused in the same version.

Wei Zheng looked at the movable type carved by the craftsmen, and his heart was also very happy, the greatest significance of this great invention lies in the promotion of cultural dissemination, and it is also an extremely important measure to consolidate the rule.

When a large number of books are written, reading is no longer the preserve of the elite, and for the country, there will be a steady stream of talents.

With the passage of time, the carved movable type was stored enough, and another major invention, the stock of paper began to increase, Wei Zheng ordered the start of large-scale printing of books, which was personally supervised by the monarch, which shows that it attaches great importance to it, and the people below do not dare to relax in the slightest.

A palace attendant came here, saluted Wei Zheng, and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yin asks to see!" ”

Fox Yin? What is she here for? Wei Zheng said suspiciously: "Quasi-! ”

After a while, he saw a beautiful white-clothed figure with the color of Yin Shang coming, Hu Yin was about to salute, Wei Zheng smiled and said, "Excuse me, what's the matter?" ”

"What has the king been tinkering with recently, he has not been in court for days, and the ministers below have been restless, and he has not even seen the right prime minister!" As soon as Hu Yin said this, Wei Zheng suddenly understood, but he also smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this situation, Hu Yin smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, the concubines have heard that many courtiers have recently wanted to ask the king for rewards?" ”

Wei Zheng poked his palm and said with a smile: "Yes, that's why I didn't see it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, they couldn't help but make the beauty laugh, "Why is the king like this?" It's really puzzling! ”

"They all come to ask for rewards, and the widows have to have something to reward them, aren't they getting them!" Wei Zheng said with a smile.

He is very clear about the rewards that this group of ministers wants to beg, but having said that, Wei Zheng also has ulterior motives, the book is not only the cornerstone of the country, but also a great magic weapon for collecting money.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready." The old chamberlain came to Wei Zheng's side to report.

"Okay, let's get started!" Wei Zheng nodded, thought about it and said, "Tell me to go down and print all the classics of the hundred schools of thought." ”

"No-!" The old chamberlain received the order, and he was also surprised in his heart, the word "printing" in the king's mouth was really concise and to the point, but he didn't think much about it, and immediately passed on the king's order.

Wei Zheng led the curious Hu Yin to take a look, at this moment, Hu Yin looked at a group of people on the table with pieces of wooden lattices, and the movable types classified by rhyme were displayed next to everyone, all of which were marked with notes.

I saw everyone take out a square-shaped movable type embedded in the wooden lattice, obviously, this is in the movable type typesetting, Hu Yin was surprised to find that a fragmentary movable type typesetting can be written.

After a while, Hu Yin's eyes focused on a template, and when he saw the content of the typesetting on it, he couldn't help but whisper: "There is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun." The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; Turned into a bird, its name is Peng. Peng's back, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; Flying in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. It is a bird, and the sea will be in the south of the earth, and the south of the sky will also be ......"

"Your Majesty, isn't this a scripture written by the Taoist Zhuang Zhou?" Hu Yin immediately asked.

"Oh? You know that too? Wei Zheng said curiously.

"Taoist Zhuangzi, the world's corporal is afraid that no one knows its person, no one knows its name, the beginning of the book "Zhuangzi" is this article, the concubine likes to read, and I am fortunate to have read the works of Zhuangzi." Hu Yin said.

Wei Zheng nodded and said: "This article is strange and unbridled, and it is one of the most favorite articles of widows. Dacai Zhuang Zhou can be described as a strange person through the ages, detached and inactive, and a master. ”

"The king seems to have a lot of respect for Zhuangzi?"

"To people without themselves, gods and men without merit, saints without names, without self, nameless, without merit, nothing to rely on and swim in infinity, not for the world to be used in order to be free, throughout the ages, there are countless people who ask the Tao, but there are few enlightened people, Fang is today, but Zhuang Zhouer, laughing at all beings, leisurely travel."

Hearing this, Hu Yin thought for a while, and said with a smile: "The king has already attained enlightenment!" ”

"What's the explanation?" Wei Zheng turned around slowly, looked at her and asked curiously.

"The king is the lord of the country, the supreme of a country, and he wants to be free, what a way!" Hu Yin flashed his beautiful eyes and looked at Wei Zheng. The monarch couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then burst into a smile and said, "No, the widow is just a person who hears the Tao!" ”

At the same time, the typesetting of the opening essay of "Zhuangzi" has been completed, Wei Zheng watched quietly, at this moment, the craftsman is inking the typetype typeset of the typesetting, and another subordinate came here with a thick stack of paper in both hands, and after a while, a piece of white paper with a suitable size was placed on the layout.

A roller brush carefully brushed the back of the paper, repeatedly brushed back and forth several times to pick up the white paper, turned over and looked, the original white paper was impressively written, and the handwriting was extremely neat. Immediately after that, the blank paper began to be printed repeatedly, and the words on the written paper were exactly the same.

A person can pick up about 2,000 words in an hour, which is very efficient.

With the beginning of printing, a large number of articles included in the palace, including the classics of the hundred schools of thought, began to be typeset and printed, and finally there was no need for expensive gradually.

Wei Zheng opened up a special venue for this purpose, and directly established a "printing house" in the palace and set it as a forbidden area.

Even ministers like Chen Zhen and Ju Xin can't.

The two inventions of movable type printing and paper were highly expected by Wei Zheng, and he wanted to make a fortune with these two things, and if the process of movable type printing and papermaking was leaked, it would not be possible to form a monopoly, and the fortune would be greatly reduced.

A month passed in an instant.

In the past month, only Wei Zheng knows how many books have been printed, but today, all the ministers of the country have been summoned by the monarch.

Ju Xin, Chen Zhen and other ministers who defended the country entered the palace one after another to face the king, and the monarch summoned them, and everyone didn't know what was going on, but they didn't dare to slack off.

The main hall of Panlong Palace has gathered a group of ministers to defend the country, and on the throne is Wei Zheng, at this moment, His Royal Highness's ministers are staring at a pile of mysterious items displayed in the center, wrapped in brocade gauze, and the ministers are also very curious.

But seeing Wei Zheng wave his hand, a palace attendant suddenly lifted the gauze, Su Dai's eyes lit up when he saw it, and Chen Zhen and the others were even more bright.

"This ...... Is it a book? Prime Minister Right couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Isn't this what Zhu Qing thinks about? Want to ask for it? Wei Zheng on the seat laughed loudly: "You can observe at will!" ”

As soon as the monarch said this, the ministers rushed up in an uproar, and they couldn't wait to take a copy one by one, and when they opened it, they couldn't help but exclaim.

"This is the book?" Chen Zhen picked up a bound book and said with great interest, and when he opened it, his pupils shrank, and he rarely showed a look of surprise, "This ...... This ......"

Even Su Dai was extremely shocked, because he saw that the books in his hands were all written, and what really shocked him was the neatness of the writing, but all the same words were exactly the same.

"Which master is this? It's exactly the same, it's exactly the same! Chen Zhen said in surprise.

Wei Zheng on the seat couldn't help but smile when he looked at the surprised faces of the ministers, even the top calligraphers couldn't write every word exactly the same, exactly the same.

But in the eyes of the uninformed people, they were shocked, and they thought it was written by people.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how is this thing compared to bamboo slips?" Wei Zheng, who was on the throne, suddenly asked.

"One scripture can be used to fill this thing, and so is the real treasure!" Ji Xin flipped through the books in his hand, and said with great surprise, if the content of this small book is burned with bamboo slips, one car will not be enough.

The ministers in the temple all like to read literature, and they can't put down items such as books.

Just when everyone looked at the books in their hands and read the contents, Wei Zheng on the throne spoke again: "Since the tenth day, few people have been thinking about it for a long time. Since the accession to the throne, the widow has conquered the east and west, broken the Song Dynasty, swept the Wei Dynasty, defeated the Qin State, and achieved great martial arts, but Wenzhi did nothing......"

The ministers suddenly quieted down, and Ju Xin, Su Dai and the others looked at each other. Wei Zheng has not asked about political affairs recently, but now he said this, I am afraid that there is a major edict to be promulgated, so I saw that the ministers were all facing the monarch, Wei Zheng looked around at everyone and said: "Martial arts are essential, and civil governance is also indispensable!" ”

"Come on, pen and ink are waiting!" Wei Zheng slowly stepped down from the throne, and at the same time, several palace attendants quickly moved a table, with pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, all available, only to see Wei Zheng flying a blank piece of paper.

At the end, everyone saw four big characters.

"Yuxuan Palace?" A servant read these four words curiously.

"Pass on the edict of the widow, build a large number of buildings, and build Xuanyu Palace!" Wei Zheng put down his pen and immediately ordered.

Xuan, which means a corridor or hut with windows; Yu: It means the vast and vast space of the universe. The "Yuxuan Palace", which has not yet been born, is the first "library" in history, and it is national-level.

The appearance of paper means that Wei Zheng is going to compete with the Jixia School Palace of Qi State, and it is time for the grand scene of a hundred schools of thought to move from Linzi to Chaoge.

Jixia School Palace is famous all over the world, and Wei Zheng wants to make Chaoge a new cultural holy place, a place that scholars yearn for, and it will take some twists and turns, but paper is a very good weight.
