Time has entered the sixth month of the lunar calendar!

In the entire land of Guanlong, the people are busy in the farmland.

The great drought that has not been encountered in a hundred years, it is rare for the people, and under the unified guidance of the local government, the grain has been harvested.

Although it is not as good as the wind and rain, it is enough to satisfy the people.

Your Majesty has proclaimed to the world!

In view of the severe drought this year, all taxes were exempted from the people.

In this way, the people will harvest more grain than in good weather.

Li Shimin is also very satisfied with such a result.

In the face of the impending locust plague, autumn planting in various places has been temporarily suspended.

………

In a manor in the south of Chang'an City.

After many days of pondering and experimentation.

Li Gen finally gradually mastered the key technical aspects of movable type printing.

Many of the tools were completed by Li Gen himself.

Cheng Chumo has been following Li Gen these days.

It is said to avoid being beaten, but in fact, it is to witness how books are born.

When the first book, the Analects, was bound into a volume.

Li Gen couldn't help but laugh excitedly.

All the paper is cut to a uniform size, slightly larger than the printing plate.

For each edition, Li Gen engraved dozens of copies, because there were enough clay movable type, and Li Gen still kept the used edition.

After printing, arrange it in order, make the cover of the book with thick paper up and down, and then let Chunmei and Chunlan sew it with a needle and thread and one side.

Nowadays, the best books can only do this.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, with the first "Analects", the second "Mencius", the third "Shangshu", and then "The Book of Rites", "Zhou Li" and other books, which came out one after another!

"High in the Sky"

When the last "Zuo Biography" was printed, Li Gen was full of a sense of accomplishment at this time.

Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period, the full text is nearly 200,000 words.

It is also the book with the largest number of words among these classic ancient books.

If it is copied by hand, it will take many people to transcribe it day and night for several days to complete.

And now, as long as he arranges the layout, he can print as much as he wants.

"Brother Mo, the seventh brother's move can be regarded as a continuation of the saint's learning!"

"Take these books back, uncle will never beat you again, admit your mistakes, and say that you have been studying with me in the manor all this time."

"It's okay to read more in the future, it's good for Brother Mo!"

"Hey......"

Cheng Chumo was happy and agreed.

Watching Cheng Chumo hold a big hug of books, he left the manor happily.

Li Yuan said very unhappily.

"Eldest grandson, you just gave away such a precious book? This is a family heirloom, children, it can be passed down from generation to generation, and our future generations can rely on these books to gain fame! ”

Grandpa looked heartbroken.

Let Li Gen smile and speak.

"Grandpa, grandson also knows the preciousness of books, but once Brother Chu Mo brings the books back to Cheng Mansion, according to Su Guogong's temperament, he will definitely send them to today."

"In order to reunite the family as soon as possible, my grandson has done enough, and the art of making salt has also been handed over to my father, my father must have dedicated it to His Majesty, and now I will dedicate the books again, if I can't exchange it for a family reunion, my grandson will be powerless for the time being!"

Listening to Li Gen's words, Li Yuan chuckled in his heart.

This kid was still thinking like this in his heart.

Li Yuan instantly knew in his heart.

Let's say, Cheng Chumo hurried all the way to the door of Cheng's mansion.

"Mother, I'm back!"

As soon as he entered the mansion, Cheng Chumo shouted happily.

"Stinky boy, there is no Lao Tzu in your eyes?"

Cheng Yanjin's voice came from the living room.

"Dad, you're back home, I thought you were still on the banks of the Weishui River!"

"What's the matter, I want your father to stay on the bank of the Weishui River all the time, so that Lao Tzu can't feed Wang Ba?"

Cheng Biting Jin's words made Cheng Chumo's face full of black lines.

"Dad, how dare the child have that thought, look at what I brought back?"

"Braised pork ......"

Cheng bit the golden wind and walked out of the living room, the movement was fast, the posture was beautiful, it was breathtaking!

"Dad, although it's not braised pork, it's much more precious than braised pork!"

"Huh!"

Cheng Yanjin looked at the pile of things in Cheng Chumo's arms, and his eyes widened in confusion.

"Ugly cow, what is this?"

"Dad, it's a book!"

"What books?"

"Dad, all the books tested in the imperial examination are available here."

Listening to Cheng Chumo's words, Cheng Biting Jin really wanted to throw the sole of his shoe over!

"Fart, those books add up, they can fucking crush you to death, how can it be that little thing in your arms?"

"Dad, this is true, His Royal Highness the eldest son of the emperor, the book printed by himself, don't believe you can look at it yourself!"

"What the hell ......"

Cheng Yanjin walked quickly to Chu Mo, picked up a book, and opened it casually.

Boy!

Cheng Biting Jin's eyes instantly widened.

"That's why Your Majesty has kept you in the manor?"

Cheng Chumo nodded vigorously.

"Let's go, hurry up and follow my father into the palace!"

Cheng Biting Jin pulled up Cheng Chumo, father and son, and went straight to the palace!

Tai Chi Palace!

In the Lizheng Palace.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun sat opposite each other.

The crown prince Li Chengqian stood respectfully with his hands on the side!

"Gao Ming, I have made great progress today, I am very relieved!"

Li Shimin had just finished Li Chengqian's homework, and Li Shimin, who was very happy with his face, was very satisfied and very pleased, and the eldest grandson Empress was naturally very happy.

"Your Majesty, the father and son of Su Guo ask to see you!"

Li Shimin originally wanted to see them in the Lizheng Palace, but when he saw Li Chengqian, Li Shimin suddenly changed his mind.

"Let Zhijie father and son, go to the imperial study and wait for me."

Li Shimin strode towards the imperial study.

As soon as he approached the imperial study, he heard Cheng Yanjin's hearty laughter.

"Ugly cow, pour tea for Daddy!"

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched, Cheng of the dog day bit gold, this is treating the imperial study as his own home!

When Li Shimin stepped into the imperial study!

Hey!

Cheng Yanjin has already drunk it.

However, a bunch of objects on the imperial eucalyptus instantly made Li Shimin have no heart to take care of Cheng and bite the gold.

When Cheng Yanjin saw His Majesty coming, he immediately got up and paid homage to the two of them!

"Chu Mo, you brought this?"

"If you return to Your Majesty, it was given to you by Your Highness."

"Oh!"

Li Shimin picked up a book and opened it.

The expression instantly became exciting.

The ink is fragrant, the handwriting is neat and clear, and all fonts are the same size, and they are by no means transcribed with a brush.

"Chu Mo, this time in the manor is not a short time!"

Li Shimin's heart was shocked, but he was silent in the routine.

"Your Majesty, this matter is too cumbersome and complicated, and Your Highness has worked hard day and night for twenty-one days before it is completed."

"Today, His Highness looked at these books and said with a smile, he can be regarded as doing his best to continue his studies in the Holy Order!"
