Chapter 80: Chinese New Year (1st Update)
This bit of silver Yinzhen's emotional reluctance, but it was unexpectedly appreciated by many readers, and it was really an unexpected joy.
In fact, Yinzhen has done many things in this life, and he didn't think so much when he did it, but the results were all unexpected, at least because of these "unexpected", his reputation in this life is much better.
Because the new arithmetic has been taken as the scientific content of the examination, and the content of the new arithmetic is not obscure, some people think that children can also learn, and gradually include the new arithmetic in the content of the Mongolian school period.
It can be seen that in another year or two, the new arithmetic will become a must-read book for readers.
Yinzhen saw the news from below and was very satisfied with it.
And this time the new arithmetic silver Yinzhen actually didn't cost much, Yun Rong studied some things about printing technology before, drew a lot of drawings, and slowly drummed out a few printing presses.
The advent of the new printing press has greatly accelerated the printing speed, and several machines have worked together, and the books of meritorious candidates from all over the country have been printed with quality and quantity, and there is not much silver used.
Because of technical reasons, the number of printing presses is not much, Yinzhen recently let people step up the production, Yinzhen plans to set up a propaganda department next year, specially used as a window of the imperial court, to reflect the trend of the imperial court, the people below the province deceived the people, and made profits from it.
This propaganda department is mainly responsible for disseminating the movements of the imperial court, because the transmission of information was very slow in ancient times, so Yinzhen planned to let the propaganda department issue monthly newspapers, as well as local weekly newspapers.
The monthly report is issued once a month, and the content of the issue is the central government's decision-making and trends, and because the time of information transmission to each region is different, the content of the monthly report is the same in every region, but there is a sequence of time.
Places close to the political center of the capital were naturally the first to get the news.
As for the weekly newspaper, it is issued every seven days, and the content of the weekly report is the decisions made by each province in seven days, and the weekly report of no region has to be sent to the central government on a regular basis.
After the monthly and weekly newspapers were released, Yinzhen also planned to agree that the private sector could also issue newspapers after the official newspapers were successfully released, but the content could not involve untrue content, and it could not involve some sensitive topics.
Yinzhen had seen the role of newspapers in the Republic of China, and also knew that if newspapers were used well, public opinion guidance could solve many problems.
In order to better regulate the problems that may arise in the future, Yinzhen even asked people to formulate a series of laws on the Propaganda Department, just for fear that someone would use the power of public opinion to do something contrary to the interests of the Qing Dynasty.
When the law was first formulated, the criminal department was very confused, there was no front line to be found, they were all used to following the rules, and the laws that did not exist before were created by them, and they were a little overwhelmed at the beginning.
It's not that he doesn't have any ideas at all, it's just that he doesn't have any particularly good ideas, and he wrote some, and Yinzhen was not satisfied with it.
In the end, he couldn't, Yin Zhen could only make an outline himself, and told the people in the criminal department what he wanted to achieve, and the law on this aspect began to be formulated.
In the end, he repaired back and forth a few times before he was completely settled, Yinzhen has silver in his hands in this life, so he doesn't want to be reluctant to spend silver like in his previous life.
This incident did make the criminal department lose some hair, and Yinzhen's reward was very direct, directly rewarding gold and silver.
In the end, these laws that made the criminal department lose their hair Yinzhen personally gave them names, which were called "Public Opinion Law".
Although the plan has been planned, even in order to ensure that the Propaganda Department can carry out it well, even the relevant laws have been formulated.
But the official implementation will have to wait for the next year, after all, now that the nineteenth year of Kangxi is about to pass, and the New Year is approaching, it is indeed not suitable for big moves.
This matter is just settled, and Yinzhen plans to get this department up at the beginning of next year.
In the nineteenth year of Kangxi, the harem was as calm as in previous years, and even calmer because of the lack of a concubine.
Concubine Rong was not a particularly existential person before, but this year, she is missing, but the harem is inexplicably much colder, and I don't know why.
Yun Rong is pregnant this year, Yin Chen does not want to spend too much time, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is also grand, but the process is not as cumbersome as in previous years, Yin Chen's intentions Yun Rong also understands.
After participating in the New Year's banquet this year, Yinzhen and Yun Rong kept vigil together, and fell asleep while guarding Yun Rong, and she didn't blame her, she was a pregnant woman, the child in her belly was very well-behaved this time, but no matter how well-behaved a pregnant woman was, she would still be sleepy.
Yin Zhen looked at Yun Rong who was asleep, and hugged her to sleep, as for the vigil? Where is more important than a daughter-in-law getting a good night's sleep.
In ancient times, these folk customs were very important, and they felt that vigil was a necessary thing to do.
If Yinzhen was in his previous life, he would probably still have to follow the rules, but in this life, the rules are done on the outside, and how comfortable the inside should be.
The next morning, Yun Rong woke up and looked at herself lying down, very confused, wasn't it a vigil? Why did you fall asleep.
Yinzhen had already woken up, so Yunrong woke up and Yinzhen saw it.
Yinzhen: "Awake?" ”
Yun Rong: "Well, what time is it?" When did I fall asleep? ”
Yinzhen didn't say anything about the hour, nor did she say when she slept yesterday, but said, "It doesn't matter if you sleep a little more today." ”
Yun Rong glanced at him, it doesn't matter what it means, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, although there is no need to think about ordinary people going around to greet the New Year, the concubines of the harem still have to come over to ask for peace, and she and Yinzhen have to go to the queen mother to ask for peace.
Yun Rong: "What do you say! I see that the day is almost dawn, hurry up, someone should come to say hello later, and the emperor can't be late. ”
Yin Zhen saw that Yun Rong's complexion was not bad, so she followed her and said, "Okay, listen to you." ”
Yun Rong and Yin Zhen got up and dressed up, had breakfast, and the concubines of the harem came one after another, Yun Rong did not have the habit of beating people, they have been honest in the past few years, said a few words, and gave rewards according to their positions, and Yun Rong sent them back.
sent away the women of the harem, Bo Bo also came over, and asked for peace for Eniang Amma, and then the family of three went to Cining Palace to ask for peace for the queen mother.
The Empress Dowager later moved into Cining Palace, after all, Cining Palace was indeed more comfortable to live in, and the Empress Dowager moved in three years after the Empress Dowager's death.
When they arrived, the Queen Mother was already waiting there.
The queen mother can also see it now, the emperor is more crazy about the current queen than the previous emperor to Concubine Dong E, she saw it in her eyes, and she also felt a little, she thought a lot, she only now felt that maybe the emperor was not true love for Concubine Dong E, after all, the emperor should sleep with women other than Concubine Dong E.
Where is the queen favored like today, and her reputation is counted everywhere.
The queen mother now has a little bit of the meaning of the emperor, but she wants to get out of the control of her powerful aunt and fight against her aunt, but the last one is not very defeated.
Her aunt didn't expect the emperor to be so stubborn, and the emperor didn't expect that he would be so short-lived.
The queen mother figured this out, and also understood that these women were all victims of the struggle between the emperor and her aunt, and no one could say whether they were good or bad.
The queen mother is also relieved of what happened back then, and she can turn a deaf ear to what the emperor and queen did, not deaf or dumb, not a familyman, she is still ready to enjoy her old age in peace! Anyway, the emperor is filial, the queen also advances and retreats to a certain extent, and the grandson who is not related by blood is also very well-behaved.
