No. 314: [Movable Type Printing]

"That's right." Li Chengqian nodded.

He took out a small seal from himself, which was his personal seal, then looked at Confucius and said, "Master's seal, borrow it for use." ”

Confucius took out the seal and gave it to Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian took a piece of ink, then took his own seal, dipped it in the ink, and stamped it on a piece of paper.

"Look." Li Chengqian pointed to the mark left by his seal, let the masters see it, and said.

The masters nodded.

Li Chengqian took Confucius's seal, dipped it in the ink and stamped a seal on the paper, and said, "Look." ”

The masters nodded.

Li Chengqian put the two seals together, stamped them again, and said, "Look." ”

The masters then nodded, but it was strange that Li Chengqian had stamped so many seals, what was he doing?

"Isn't this seal the same as printing, if you need the seal of Chengqian, you can use the seal of Chengqian, if you need the seal of the master, you can use the seal of the master, if you need both, you will put it together, so that the printing is a yang effect. Therefore, printing can not be carved the whole board, but cut into a word, which word should be found when you need it, and then cover the paper to print. In this way, there will be no time to engrave a word and the whole page will not be usable, and it will not be used again after using it once. Li Chengqian explained the advantages of movable type printing to several masters.

The shortcomings of woodblock printing, these masters who are engaged in education all know, and when they hear the advantages of movable type printing that Li Chengqian said, their eyes all light up!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this method is wonderful!" Yu Zhiyu praised.

"Why did the old man never think that this seal and printing were the same?" Confucius took back his seal and said with a smile.

Other masters also praised Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Masters, don't praise anymore, this is just a moment of inspiration for Chengqian, and it's not a big deal." Originally, I wanted to save some effort for the masters, and they didn't need to copy the certificate by hand, but since Master Yu said that hand-copying can appear sincere, then this movable type printing will be used next time! ”

Yu Zhiyu said: "Yes, yes." ”

Confucius said: "After the promotion of movable type printing, printing will not be so difficult, and it will be much easier to print and publish books in the future, so that more books can be printed for the scholars of the world to learn!" ”

He looked at Li Chengqian and said, "The old man must report this movable type printing to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can reward His Highness for such innovative and promising people!" ”

Praised by Confucius as a promising man, Li Chengqian's heart blossomed, this is very difficult to hear praise from Confucius's mouth, I didn't expect that today's simple movable type printing, so that Confucius did not hesitate to praise words.

After school, he returned to Xichi Courtyard, and Li Chengqian was already having another leisurely afternoon after dinner, but a eunuch came to see Li Chengqian.

This eunuch has seen it a few times, and he is a person from the queen's side.

"My queen mother has something to do with me?" Li Chengqian spoke first and said.

"Yes. Your Highness. The eunuch replied.

Li Chengqian stood up and said, "I'll go now." ”

"Your Highness, the queen didn't let you go to see her."

"Huh?"

The eunuch said: "The queen asked Her Royal Highness to visit the Duke of Yiguo on her behalf." ”

"Oh, I see, I see." Li Chengqian said.

Although Li Chengqian provided Qin Qiong with a vegetable soup life-saving method, he was not sure whether Qin Qiong would survive. After all, the old man is weak, and there are other diseases besides scurvy, which cures scurity, and his life may be taken away by other diseases.

He didn't pay attention to Qin Qiong since he came back from the Qin Mansion, and this eunuch came to ask Li Chengqian to visit him, and Li Chengqian knew that this Qin Qiong hadn't really died.

Call Lao Zeng and ask him to prepare for leaving the palace.

This is out of the palace as the crown prince, no longer out of the palace in civilian clothes like the previous times, and Li Chengqian's prince's honor guard is the first time it has been put out.

When he arrived at the Qin Mansion, although Qin Qiong was still lying on the bed, his complexion was obviously much better than yesterday, and this time he saw that Li Chengqian had already believed that he had been rescued by Li Chengqian's vegetable soup, and his gratitude was beyond words.

The trip of the country's successor to visit the old cadres came to a successful end, and Li Chengqian was about to leave when he heard Qin Qiong snort in pain.

Li Chengqian asked with concern: "Uncle Qin, is he not feeling well, do you want to find a doctor to take a look?" ”

Qin Qiong endured the pain, and after a while, he eased up before he said, "The old problem is sick, and the pain in the bones comes out!" ”

"Brother, have you made an old mistake?" Outside the door, Cheng Lao walked in.

Cheng Laoxiang also came to visit Qin Qiong, he heard that the prince came to visit Qin Qiong as soon as he entered the door, so it was not surprising to see Li Chengqian here, and he and Li Chengqian have not been quite "familiar" recently, so after coming in, he first greeted the old brother's body.

"Oh, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, Cheng has seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" Cheng Lao Xiang saluted at this time.

"Hello Uncle Cheng!" Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Uncle Cheng doesn't need to be polite. ”

Cheng Lao asked him: "...... are you?"

Li Chengqian held Qin Qiong's leg and said, "I'm looking at Uncle Qin's leg, he looks like rheumatism!" ”

Cheng Lao's face was slightly warm, and he said: "That's right, it's rheumatism, and old wounds!" ”

"Oh, I know there's a wine that cures rheumatism!" Li Chengqian gently put Qin Qiong's leg down.

Qin Huaidao watched Li Chengqian personally help his grandfather's leg and carefully inspect it, he was a little moved in his heart, gritted his teeth lightly, and seemed to have made some decision!

Cheng Laoxiang asked Li Chengqian: "The wine you brewed?" ”

"Yes, but those ordinary wines can't cure diseases, you need to brew something that can cure rheumatism!" Li Chengqian said.

"What's that?"

"Snakes." Li Chengqian said, "Soaking snakes and Chinese medicine together in wine is very effective on rheumatism, even if it cannot be cured, it can alleviate the condition, and it can also strengthen the body!" ”

Cheng Lao believes Li Chengqian's words, and he doesn't believe Li Chengqian in other places, but in this regard, Cheng Lao believes him. Just like the last time he said at his house that vegetable soup is good for teeth, Cheng Laoxiang thought that Qin Qiong had two or three teeth in a row after he had scurvy, so he immediately believed Li Chengqian's words, these days, his family's vegetables have cooked a lot of soup, and he has to drink two bowls of vegetable soup every time to be full.

Now when he heard that snake soaking wine could cure rheumatism, he also believed it.

"Snakes have special places that need to be raised, don't they?" Cheng Lao asked.

"You don't need this, if you catch a snake in the wild, you can use it to make wine!" Li Chengqian waved his hand.

When Qin Huaidao heard this, he immediately jumped to find a snake for his grandfather, Cheng Lao waved his hand and said, "Old Cheng, I have time in the afternoon, so I'm going to catch a snake for His Highness!" ”

After saying that, he went out like a gust of wind!
