Chapter 398: The Book of Gods is Published
Zhang Jingyi was very happy and left the palace in a hurry.
He had been waiting for this day for a long time.
The book I compiled, but it took me a few months, I pondered it when I had time, and after pondering, I wrote down my own things, and then carefully scrutinized it to see if it was suitable or not, and then I revised it.
The point is, this book ...... He couldn't count on anyone else but himself.
Because of this......
That's why Zhang Jingyi spent countless efforts.
The problem of the Ming Dynasty is not only the lack of money, but also the annexation of land, so naturally there is no shortage of Wen Tian and Wu Xi.
But what else?
Then there is the Confucian monopoly on knowledge.
They carry the banner of saints, and they do not just monopolize the ability to learn knowledge.
The real frightening thing is that they have a monopoly on the discourse of knowledge, that is, they have the standard by which knowledge is measured.
And that's what's really terrible, they're holding up the name of saints, but they're actually adopting a cultural tyranny.
What is a standard?
The standard is that what they say is an evil book, what a book is an evil book, and what they say is serious learning, then what is serious learning.
And this ...... Precisely the most terrifying.
If you don't solve this problem, any doubts you have about them will be pulled into the knowledge level they have set up, and then they will use their rich experience and quote scriptures to hammer you to death.
The reason why Zhang Jingyi pulled the emperor into the gang is also very simple, he directly created a huge influence on the book he wanted to edit.
The emperor is the best and most shining signboard in the world.
So after Zhang Jingyi's purpose of entering the palace this time was achieved, he rushed to the new district of Xinxian County non-stop.
There's a printing workshop here.
On weekdays, I mainly help print and distribute some books and periodicals of military schools.
Of course...... The print run is not large.
In fact, this can also be understood, people who can really read and write in this era, and they don't care about the content printed by the printing workshop.
And the military school needs a small amount after all.
So basically, this printing workshop is maintained by the yamen of Xinxian County, and it is in a semi-open state all year round.
At this time, the engraving plate of printing has long been ready, because the printing is a fixed book, so there is no need for copper characters, the advantage of copper printing is that it is flexible, but in terms of convenience, it is better to have a fixed engraving printing.
Zhang Jingyi gave an order here, so he ...... Everyone got busy.
The craftsmen took the engraving plates, prepared the ink, and then prepared the blank paper.
After a few moments, there was ink on the white paper, and for a moment it ...... Dozens of craftsmen in the entire workshop were very busy.
The next day, the first edition of the book began to contact the bookstore in Xinxian County.
When the owner of the bookstore saw that the people in the new county yali came to the door and asked them to sell books, he dared not agree, so he responded with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
This Liu Dongjia of Liu Ji Bookstore is eager to sell a good one in the yali.
It's just that...... After taking the book.
He was stunned.
But I saw that the book cover was clearly written: "100,000 why? ”
Why?
What the hell is this, why?
Liu Dongjia has never seen such a book, but when he looks at it again, there is an inscription, which reads: Written by Zhang Jingyi, the Son of Heaven and the Marquis of Xinxian County.
As soon as he saw this word, Liu Dongjia suddenly felt that his hand trembled, and he almost didn't hold it steady.
Emperor...... Emperor...... and the ...... of the new county marquis
Then, he hurriedly turned the first page, and was confused again.
Is this really a 'why'?
The first page reads: Why is there lightning?
Lightning......
The more Liu Dongjia looked at it, the more strange he felt.
And the answer in it made him speechless with surprise.
Because it is said that there is a charge in the clouds, after friction...... Breeds lightning......
This...... How does it look like the Book of Mountains and Seas?
Next...... He went on to see why water boiled when it boiled......
What a mess!
This Liu Dongjia was speechless for a while.
Originally, I thought that His Majesty and the new county marquis had written some good articles, so I used this to bind them into a book, or I wanted to be elegant, so I copied some poems.
Where do you know...... It's all these mysterious things, oh, and copper and iron conduct electricity......
Isn't this electricity emitted by the mother of thunder?
Liu Dongjia shook his head in his heart, but when he looked up, he still showed his signature smile to the scribe, and said kindly: "This book is sold by students, but it's hard to say if it can be sold or not." ”
"It doesn't matter." The scribe expressed understanding.
In this way, Liu Dongjia can't take care of a lot, what's the matter, put it on first, and then say, he is just selling books, what books are not for sale?
So he put the book on the shelf, then took a charcoal pen, and wrote in front of the door: The new book is on the market, written by the Son of Heaven and the Marquis of Xinxian County......
Soon, the entire capital exploded.
The emperor wrote a book?
And the new county marquis who has been in the limelight recently?
So many people went to see the excitement, and the major bookstores were actually lively and surrounded by a lot of people.
Someone endured the pain and spent more than a dozen dollars to buy the book.
Immediately after, I went to see it excitedly.
At this glance, the whole person was confused, what is this writing?
What kind of mess is it?
No way? No way? This is actually written by His Majesty and the new county marquis?
Aren't these two illiterates?
Speaking of which, in the eyes of people, it is really no different from illiteracy.
Because the language in it is almost all straightforward and colloquial, there is no such thing as beautiful language......
That's it......
…………
Hongwen Academy.
In this Hongwen Academy, there are many scholars.
The master of the academy is surnamed Li, and his single name is one character.
Li Wenwen was rich and famous, and many scholars rushed to study under him.
Of course, at this time it was the late Ming Dynasty, and the academy was very popular, especially after the Donglin Academy was in full swing, the establishment of the academy and the acceptance of scholars became popular.
It is not only the result of teaching and educating people, but also a place for readers to comment on current affairs.
This Li Wen is quite famous in Beijing, so many people come here.
Every day, as usual, he summoned the students to come to Minglun Hall for morning classes.
But early this morning, he had just sat down.
But one of the students stood up and said, "Sir, the student wants to ask for advice, I wonder what Mr. thinks of the book written by His Majesty and the Marquis of Xinxian County?" ”
Li Wen was stunned.
But I saw that many students had begun to snicker.
Li Wendao: "What a book, but the old man is lonely and unheard." ”
So the student took a book out of his sleeve.
The rest of the students laughed even harder.
Li Wen took the book, felt strange, and couldn't help but say: "What, is Your Majesty also humble and studious now?" ”
As he spoke, he lowered his head and opened the book cover, but at this glance, his face suddenly turned green.
And the readers in Minglun Hall, obviously, many of them have already read this book, and they are already laughing.
In just one night, this book has spread all over the capital, and for a while, it has become a laughing stock of readers all over the capital.
The more Li Wen looked, the greener his face became, he was really frightened!
Then his whole person became excited, beat his chest and said: "Evil, evil, for the monarch is unknown, for the minister is so treacherous, what is this written, what is it...... The monarch and the minister who lived in the temple were like this. ”
Everyone never thought that Mr. would be angry like this.
beat his heart again, and cried again, this time, it was not funny, so he put on a straight face, and someone said: "Sir...... I want to think about it...... It's just grandstanding. ”
"Do you think they're grandstanding?" Li Wen said angrily: "You haven't understood it yet? This first article, what thunder and lightning are and what is a natural phenomenon...... What is the cloud layer...... What charge...... What else does copper and iron conduct electricity, don't you understand? This is to confuse the public! ”
"Over the years, natural disasters have been frequent, what is the reason? It's clear that God is angry, why is God angry? This is what is said in the "Book of Shang": Heaven and man are of the same kind, they sense each other, heaven can intervene in personnel, and man can also sense heaven. Therefore, if the Son of Heaven is unkind and unjust, and does not show benevolence and righteousness, then there will be calamities in Heaven to condemn and warn; If the government is harmonious, the heavens will naturally send auspicious luck to encourage. This is what Dong Zhongshu said about the induction of heaven and man, the harmony of yin and yang. ”
After a pause, Li Wen said again: "So Zi said: For the monarch, he should be punished and virtuous, and he will go to heaven with things." Now what is the thunder and lightning is the principle of nature, the old man comes to ask you, what do your majesty and the new county marquis want to do? It is nothing more than trying to shirk all the natural and man-made disasters over the years, they do not show benevolence and righteousness, so they send down heavenly punishment, but not only do they not repent, but they even write such a fallacy to deliberately confuse the public. ”
Saying that, Li Wen burst into tears: "For the monarch, I don't know how to reflect, but I mislead people with heresy, woohoo, the Ming Dynasty is dead." ”
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
I see, I didn't expect it...... The emperor and that Zhang Jingyi have such sinister intentions, this first article deliberately uses this to confuse the public, which is too despicable and shameless.
"Sir...... If so...... When? ”
Li Wen said with an angry face: "Here, it is also said that when thunder and lightning are combined, if copper and iron are used to make contact, lightning will be triggered, heh...... It's really nonsense, the old man must not let the conspiracy of this faint king and traitorous ministers succeed, didn't he say that this can lead to electricity, the old man will lead to it, and want to see, this heavenly induction, how can human beings interfere. ”
After hearing this, everyone was in awe of Li Wen.
Yes.
This Zhang Jingyi kept saying that thunder and lightning were not heavenly punishments, what kind of ghost charges and friction, and what clouds were there...... People can actually trigger electricity, such nonsense is a loss to what he said.
As long as we draw this call, won't the rumors be self-defeating?
So some scholars were filled with indignation: "Sir is right, sir, the students should go with him." ”
Then some people echoed the enemy: "Go together, go together, don't let the thieves succeed!" ”
