Meng Qing also responded when she heard this, she walked slowly from behind Chen Mu, and also glanced out the window.

The cold wind poured into the window, and she shivered, and silently took a few steps back.

Seeing her like this, Chen Mu smiled, closed the window, and then said slowly.

"In a few days, the earth fire dragon in the palace will be almost completed."

Meng Qing blinked, grinned, she walked to Chen Mu's side, grabbed Chen Mu's arm, and said with a sly expression.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, in fact, I am not so cold."

Chen Mu was stunned, and he looked at Meng Qing with some confusion.

Before, when winter came, Meng Qing didn't say that, seeing that Meng Qing was still smiling meaningfully, Chen Mu squinted his eyes slightly, vaguely realizing that this woman had something to say.

The truth was not beyond his expectations, he glanced at Meng Qing, signaling Meng Qing to say something quickly, Meng Qing said shyly and timidly.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if you pay a private visit, don't worry about me, let me go out with you, I don't know what a grand scene our capital is."

With that, she turned her head and glanced out the window again.

There was longing in her eyes, Chen Mu smiled when he saw her like this, and he raised his hand to rub the top of Meng Qing's hair.

"I know you're playful, but lately, there's nothing worth paying a private visit to my microservice."

Chen Mu's eyes moved, and he remembered something.

Now that it is winter, the people of the cities in the north have begun to prepare for the winter, and there is no need to worry about the farming in the fields, but they can arrange something else to do.

Chen Mu raised his hand and touched his chin.

A few days ago, he was still pondering what they should do when those farming tools replaced the people's manpower, and those people were liberated.

The best thing is to get those people to invest in factories and commerce, but there is another way to go, and that is academics.

Research offices and colleges need people, and similar, larger-scale academies should be opened in various places.

Until then, it is necessary to attract more talents who specialize in academic work, and it is naturally best if those people can subdivide their own good work.

As soon as Chen Mu pondered it, he had an idea.

Recently, the scholars have been idle again, and from time to time they will enter the palace to give advice, find fault with this official, and look for the mistakes and omissions of that family.

Although Chen Mu was happy to see them like this, now that there was something more suitable for them to do, Chen Mu did not hesitate.

He immediately had several leading scholars in the academy summoned into the palace.

Several elderly bachelors hurriedly entered the palace, Chen Mu told a few people about his plans, and several people frowned when they heard this, and looked at each other.

Immediately after, he fell to his knees.

Chen Mu was stunned, and then frowned, he also saw what these people meant.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we know that you care about the people, but it is really inappropriate for us to compile various languages into books and promote them to the people, so that those people can learn."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, since ancient times, no one from the royal family has done this, if you do......"

Everyone looked at each other, and a meaningful color appeared on their faces, and they all shook their heads again and again.

Of course, Chen Mu understood what they meant, if he wanted to stabilize his position as the ruler, he naturally couldn't let those people know too much knowledge.

He didn't mean to let the people have a lot of political knowledge.

He just wanted those people to know a few big characters.

In this way, it is more convenient for those people to engage in business, travel from south to north, or work, and deal with various classics.

"I asked you to compile a book, and I just compiled a book, just a book that teaches the people numeracy and writing, didn't I ask you to compile a batch before?"

"That batch of books has also been promoted, and now it's just for you to compile a batch of books for free promotion, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

The book was promoted by the academy, and then sold at a low price, and after it was promoted to the market, it didn't take long for it to be sold out.

Chen Mu thought about it, compared to the people who could afford to buy those books, most of the people who worked all day long to make a living, and most of them could not read and write.

But in the future, when farming equipment is spread to every household, they will have the opportunity to learn the written language, and if they can expand the scale of the local academy.

It would be better for the bachelors of various colleges to recruit more disciples.

It's just that it's so difficult for these old scholars to compile books now, and it's not so simple to let them go to various places to expand the scale of the academy.

Let's take it one step at a time.

Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Mu's mind, and seeing the few adults kneeling in front of him looking at him at a loss, Chen Mu waved his hand.

"Why, don't you understand me? I have you to compile a book and do as I tell you. ”

Several adults looked at each other, but they didn't expect Chen Mu to come for real.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if you are like this, I am afraid that those people in the family will also be dissatisfied."

Some people tried to continue to persuade, but Chen Mu sneered, and he looked at the adult coldly.

"Why, I was born into a royal family, do I still have to be afraid of those family members?"

Seeing Chen Mu's dissatisfaction, those bachelors hurriedly bowed down, not daring to raise their heads again.

Chen Mu snorted softly, and a few people obediently withdrew from the palace.

Although they were unwilling, they still began to compile the book according to Chen Mu's instructions.

Chen Mu sent someone to send a message to the academy, asking them to compile the book and hand it over to the chief scholar of the academy, Zhang Lao.

Mr. Zhang personally checked the content, and then printed and promoted the book to the people.

As soon as this news came out, those big families in the capital really couldn't sit still.

They also know that they can have their current status and family background because they are more well-informed and financially savvy.

Although the inheritance left by their ancestors helped them to have the power they have now, if they did not have the talent and financial resources, they might not be able to sit firmly in the position of this family.

Now when he saw Chen Mu like this, he immediately had a vision, and the long-term family realized.

If Chen Mu is really allowed to promote those books, then those people have the opportunity to read and understand books, and where will they be willing to be ruled and restrained by them.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, don't do it!"

"If you let them know this, their hearts will be unsettled, and they will make trouble."

"Yes! His Royal Highness the Prince! If they make a mess, then our Great Xia foundation is unstable! ”

Several people from noble families immediately entered the palace to persuade them, but Chen Mu was too lazy to listen to their nonsense, so he asked them to be driven out of the palace, and let them kneel outside the palace to ask for advice, ignoring them.

Those people in the family also saw Chen Mu's determination, and they were even more satisfied.

Seeing that attacking from the prince could not discourage the prince's determination, everyone immediately pondered.
