Cen Wenwen looked at the outline in his hand, this outline is very good, it can be said to be impeccable, and he can even refer to other classics, and his vision is also very unique.

And it can be passed on to future generations, but this compendium was really compiled by His Royal Highness King Wei?

Cen Wenwen glanced at the subordinates in the Wei King's Mansion in front of him, and it seemed that these people couldn't even tell the source of the classics.

There is a master behind King Wei.

Cen Wenwen sighed in his heart, but he didn't know who this master was.

There are many advantages to dealing with Kong Yingda, such as being able to borrow some books from Guozijian's study and take them away.

Zhang Yang bought Kong Yingda with a storybook.

Kong Yingda held the book in his hand and looked through it over and over again, and there were many small stories in the book, such as the wolf came, or the story of the farmer and the snake, the story of the fox and the crow.

The fox saw a crow in the tree with meat in its mouth, so the fox praised the crow's beautiful cry, hoping that the crow would make a few noises, but when the crow opened its mouth, the meat fell down, and the fox took the meat in its mouth and left.

Some vivid depictions of dialogue in the story.

Although the story is simple and popular to read, it also contains a lot of truth.

Kong Yingda nodded while looking at it, "This kind of story is the best for learning, dare to ask if these stories are what the horse thinks?" ”

Zhang Yang shoved the scrolls into Li Yue's big schoolbag with his hands and feet, and explained: "I usually like to listen to people tell stories, and these are all stories that I have heard others tell. ”

"I think that only people with some knowledge can tell this kind of story, but ordinary people can't tell this kind of story."

The story of Aesop's Fables has been circulated over a large period of time.

It was also after being sorted out and polished by later generations that there was Aesop's Fables, a storybook composed of hundreds of stories.

Although I didn't want to watch it when I was a child, I realized that I benefited a lot when I grew up after watching it.

The schoolbag was stuffed with scrolls, and Li Yue struggled to carry the backpack, "These books will be borrowed first, and they will be returned to Guozijian in a few days." ”

Kong Yingda looked at the storybook and stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, instead of those people chewing peonies, it is better for Her Royal Highness the Princess to borrow them." ”

"Thank you, old master."

When I go home with a lot of books, I don't have to stay in Guozijian every day, I can just pick up books and read them every day.

The books that Li Yue took away are all tools books, for example, what he brought this time are all records of pen, ink and paper, which is also useful for movable type printing, and the most important thing is that the paper still needs to be improved, and the ink for printing must also be adjusted.

Trying to get some clues from some previous accounts.

The couple went out of the city gate and went to the village.

The whole village is Li Yue's territory, but there are a few uninvited guests in the village today, they are people sent by the East Palace, Niu Chuang has already asked about the intention, and the crown prince Li Chengqian's coming-of-age crown ceremony will be next month.

They came to invite Li Xiaogong to attend the crown ceremony, hoping to let Li Xiaogong return to Chang'an City to see the crown ceremony.

"Get out! Get out of the old man! Li Xiaogong waved a stick and drove them out.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Gongjin sighed: "It seems that the mustard in the heart of the king of Hejian County can't let go. ”

The affairs of the Ministry of Rites have become a shadow in Li Xiaogong's heart, after all, not everyone can do such a thing as burning the Ministry of Rites.

Li Xiaogong really did it.

After driving the people away, Li Xiaogong smashed the stick in his hand at them again.

These people had just come back from a short distance, and Li Xiaogong shouted, "What are you still doing? ”

The person who came looked aggrieved, "In addition to the king of Hejian County, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also invited the concubine and Princess Runan. ”

After saying that, they left the invitation to the East Palace and left.

Aunt Wang picked up the invitation and handed it to Li Yue.

Li Yue opened it and took a look, then put away the invitation.

"King Hejian County, you really don't plan to go back to Chang'an City?"

"I'm not going back!"

Li Xiaogong scolded and returned to his own room and slammed the door slammed.

Looking at his closed door, Zhang Gongjin sighed: "This old man has lived for such a long time, and he still hasn't made much progress, because he is so angry and ruined by such a trivial matter. ”

"Is this still a trifle?"

"Isn't it just a Ministry of Rites, it's just a dilapidated government, it's not a big deal." Zhang Gongjin spoke lightly and sat leisurely in the sun.

Li Yue whispered: "Husband, since the prince's coming-of-age crown ceremony has invited us, it would not be good if we refused. ”

If you can't go to this kind of thing, you won't go, especially when dealing with people from the royal clan, and these people in the elite class have a bit of a problem.

After a day in the village, the couple was making ink, and if it was printing ink, it could not be of better quality, otherwise the cost would be too high.

Of course, the quality should not be too bad, too bad, the printed words are not good, and it is not good to carry out business.

Returning home with troubles, the two met Li Shimin at the door of their home.

It was not a good thing for the emperor to come to his house in the evening.

After a few entanglements in his heart, Zhang Yang still opened the door of his house, "Your Majesty, please come in." ”

Two guards stood straight outside the door.

Walking into the courtyard, Li Shimin sat down in a rocking chair, "I think it's easier for people to relax when they sit like this." ”

"This is called a rocking chair, if Your Majesty likes it, take it away, I can make a new one myself."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "That's not necessary, the palace has already made hundreds of them." ”

Imperial power is overbearing, and the concept of popularizing patents with the emperor seems very unreasonable.

The emperor was originally an unreasonable being.

Zhang Yang lit the small tandoor and put the kettle on top to boil water.

"Is there anything wrong with Your Majesty coming to see me as a guilty minister?"

Li Shimin sneered: "I just came to see my daughter, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Zhang Yang cleared his throat embarrassedly, "Your Majesty visited so suddenly, and the Humble House did not prepare in advance, and the hospitality was not thorough, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness." ”

Li Shimin nodded slightly, "After Kong Yingda's teaching for so many days, Ling has really changed a lot compared to before. ”

Aunt Wang brought some dried fruits and food from home.

Zhang Yang sat down and picked up a piece of bean crisp, "There are so many soybeans at home that I can't eat them all, I will grind them into powder, mix them with malt syrup, and mix them together, so I don't have a taste for it, so I said don't be in a hurry to eat, otherwise I will have a mouthful of bean flour." ”

Li Shimin picked up a piece of bean crisp and put it in his mouth and savored it.

After eating a piece, Li Shimin picked up another piece and put it in his mouth, took a sip of tea and said, "I ate it and had a little dry mouth." ”

"I have persuaded the king of Hejian County several times, but he just doesn't want to go back to Chang'an."

"Let him be, he is also old enough to retire." Li Shimin put down the tea bowl, "Gao Cheng submitted a recital to me again, saying that he was going to send an envoy to Tubo to lobby, hoping that Tubo and the Tang Dynasty could be friendly." ”

The yard was quiet, the evening sun was not very warm and the wind was a little cold.

Speaking of the matter of the Ministry of Rites, seeing that Zhang Yang didn't reply again, Li Shimin said again: "I always remember your original achievements, and the court is not my Yiyan Hall, and the treatment of you is also to convince people's hearts and block the mouths of the people." ”

Few of the emperor's words were true, he was not polite at all when he took away the achievements of the Ministry of Rites, unloading the mill and killing the donkey, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, not only that, but he also wanted to shed blood for his Li Tang Jiangshan Sheji, and even risked his life without hesitation.

Zhang Yang sighed: "In fact, Gao Cheng is also a person with considerable knowledge and ability, and I admire him very much." ”

"High performance is indeed more stable."

"And Gao Zheng can also cooperate with Xu Guogong to make the Ministry of Rites bigger and stronger, and it is really ashamed to be dwarfed by him in the next comparison."

Let Gao Cheng shine for Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's eyes looked at the lazy bear on the side, "If you raise this kind of animal, you are not afraid that it will bite its owner when it grows up?" ”

"What feeds him is food, and he will grow up to be much more docile when he is fed food."

"Feed this kind of livestock with grain? It's a novel way of saying it. Li Shimin stroked his beard and said: "I know that Songtsan Gampo has now returned to Tubo and is resting his troops, so that the Tang Dynasty can really make friends with Tubo?" ”

Zhang Yang cleared his throat, "I think Brother Gao can handle this matter." ”

The words were so watertight that it seemed that it was difficult to ask anything more from this kid's mouth.

Li Shimin slowly stood up, "The prince is also kind, I know that you rarely move around with people in the clan, you are my son-in-law, and you must always meet those who should be seen." ”

It's a bit like the feeling that an ugly daughter-in-law is going to see her in-laws at the end.

The royal family is the maiden family of the daughter-in-law.

The conversation between the husband and his father did not seem to be pleasant, and when he saw that his father was leaving, Li Yue hurriedly saluted and said goodbye.

Waiting for Li Shimin to leave, Zhang Yang said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law." ”

Li Yue sat down on the side.

"On the day of the crown ceremony, let's take a trip, you are my daughter-in-law, we can't be looked down upon."

Li Yue nodded vigorously.

This is Li Shimin's method of agitation, and this method of agitation is quite successful.

No matter what, it is the crown ceremony of today's prince, even if everything is simple and frugal, it is not frugal, and there are all the preparations that should be made.

The crown ceremony in October will be prepared in September.

Even Suzaku Street in Chang'an City is cleaned daily.

The palace was bustling with the preparation of the crown ceremony, and Li Tai sat by the deserted river fishing, a little desolate and a little bleak.

"Why don't the fish in Chang'an City bite the hook!" Li Tai stood up angrily, broke the fishing rod in his hand and threw it into the river.

After walking a few steps, Li Tai asked again: "What is Zhang Yang doing these days?" ”

The guard replied, "The horse has been inquiring about some ink tables these days, and often talks to some people who sell pen and ink. ”

"Where is he?"

"At this moment, it should be at the south gate of Dongshi, where there are many pen and ink workshops."

On the streets of Dongshi, Zhang Yang was chatting with a shopkeeper who sold inkstones.

The shopkeeper said: "A good inkstone pays attention to the year, as well as the fragrance of ink, the better the color of the ink, the better the price of the ink, why do you want to ask the inferior ink?" ”

"I want to make a cheaper ink."

"If it's cheap ink, it's easier to make." The shopkeeper took out the inkstone, filled another bowl of water, and poured the ink into the water, "Look, this is the kind of cheap ink you want, and this bowl will be given to you." ”

Zhang Yang was puzzled: "This kind of ink is not pure, there will be water stains around the handwriting after writing, and the ink will also scatter." ”

Looking at the shopkeeper's smile, Zhang Yang held his hands, "You sell good ink, naturally you won't say how to make bad ink, it's related to business transactions, you will never say more." ”

The shopkeeper still had a smile on his face.

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said, "Farewell." ”

As soon as I turned around, I felt that I had hit something, and when I looked down, I realized that it was Li Tai, a little fat man.

"Your Royal Highness King Wei, I'm sorry, you're too short, I didn't see it for a while."

Falling to the ground, Li Tai looked up at Zhang Yang, and for a while there were tears in the corners of his eyes, "Even you bullied me!" ”

After saying that, the little fat man wiped his tears and ran away quickly.

"I didn't expect His Royal Highness King Wei to be wide and fat, but he ran quite fast." Zhang Yang said to the guards who were stunned.

"His Royal Highness King Wei!" The guards came back to their senses and chased after them.

Nowadays, most of the ink is still used pine smoke, and some people have used graphite before, of course, the ink made with pine smoke is black and fine, easy to grind, and soon replaced graphite, and then used sesame oil to enter the ink.

Li Yue took notes while looking at the book, "Husband, there is a method of combining ink in the same name. ”

The combined ink method is indeed a kind of ink development node.

Compared with the same name, Zhang Yang thought of similar books, the Ming Dynasty's Tiangong Kaiwu and the Song Dynasty's Mengxi Writings.

Among them, there is a way of extracting ink from black smoke, which I remember as if it was burning oil.

Looking at the earthen stove he had built, Zhang Yang lifted the pot and looked at it.

Seeing that Zhang Yang was about to pick up the ashes of the pot, Aunt Wang hurriedly stepped forward, "Donkey, let me do such a dirty job." ”

"No, I don't need much."

Picking off some pot ashes, Zhang Yang carefully grinded them into powder and dripped in some hemp seed oil.

The family is used to eating lard, and Li Yue is not used to eating hemp seed oil fried in this oil, and the taste is not good.

Drip the oil into the pan ash and grind it into the powder, stir and stir to combine.

Li Yue stepped forward and sniffed it, "Husband doesn't want to drink this thing, right?" ”

"Why do you think I want to drink this?" Zhang Yang looked at his daughter-in-law in disbelief.

"Sesame oil is used for cooking." Li Yue pointed to the small jar on the table.

Zhang Yang took out a brush and dipped it on some paper, and looked at the ink but it was black and bright, which was more like because of some impurities.

After solidifying, the few strokes that have just been drawn out look like powder sticking to them, and some black powder will fall off when the paper is shaken.

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work." Zhang Yang held his forehead and sighed, "It may also be that my match is not good." ”

"Maybe it has something to do with the burning stuff, right?"

"Huh?"

Hearing Li Yue's words, a picture flashed in Zhang Yang's mind, if there is oil burning underneath when cooking, this kind of black smoke will not be at the bottom of the pot, and it is easy to obtain.

Seeing her husband looking at her, Li Yue blinked, "Next month is the crown ceremony of the prince, husband try on new clothes." ”

Walking into Li Yue's room, Zhang Yang saw the official uniform on the side.

"My aunt said that the official uniform should not be discarded at will, otherwise it will be condemned if someone finds out."

"Let's make something else."

"No, in case the husband wants to wear it back."

The daughter-in-law was resolute.
