Chapter 194: Compiling a book is a small success
didn't wait for Xie Xiuwen to go to the office, but he heard the grapevine, saying that Xie Meiren's child in the harem was not saved and had a miscarriage.
Can it be a miscarriage!
In total, she was only more than two months pregnant, and she was so screaming that she knew about it half a month ago.
Of course, Xie Xiuwen thought that Xie Meicai was not so stupid, nine times out of ten it was calculated by people, and deliberately asked the imperial doctor to ask her for a pulse in front of several mothers, and now, the pregnancy could not be hidden, so it naturally became the target of public criticism.
Everyone thinks that the royal family has a lot of wealth, but how many people can enjoy such great blessings?
Xie Meiren had a miscarriage, Emperor Jingwen couldn't help but let people investigate in detail, this investigation, but also found out that the two little masters were involved, after Emperor Jingwen demoted people to concubines, he read on Xie Huaiyi's face, and rewarded Xie Meiren with a lot of things, most of which were for self-cultivation.
Xie Meiren was so angry that her nose was crooked.
Originally, the saints promised her that as long as she gave birth to the emperor, regardless of gender, she would be promoted, but now everything is gone.
Xie Meiren cried through her heart, but she also knew that this was not her home, many things could not be said, and many people could not be offended at will, she knew that it was not so two little shrimps that harmed herself, but what could she do?
Now I can only endure this breath, looking forward to recovering my body and getting pregnant with a dragon fetus in the future, this is the way I should go.
Xie Xiuwen usually compiles books, looks at ancient books, copies what can be copied, and records that can be remembered, Xie Lin and him are getting closer and closer, and now they often get together to discuss knowledge.
"What's wrong with my brother?"
Since Xie Yu was transferred, the relationship between Xie Lin and Xie Xiuwen has become closer and closer, and now he calls him brother, which is more intimate than his previous title.
"It's a pity that only we can see such good books. My brother also knew that I was born in a farming family and grew up in the countryside, and I knew how difficult it was for the scholars there to get out of the country. Now looking at these ancient books, I have the intention to compile one or two, but I don't know if it will break the rules. ”
"That's a good thing!"
Xie Lin instantly understood his intentions, and hurriedly said: "Brother, this is for the sake of the poor students in the world, the foolish brother is not talented, and he is willing to help his brother." ”
In this way, in addition to serious business, the two began to compile books.
The book here was not originally owned by a certain person, and now they want to intercept some of the fragments or chapters, so naturally they don't need to worry about ruining someone's future, but this is a big deal, and they still ask the officials for instructions.
Somehow this matter reached the ears of the Holy Lord, and when Schelling was summoned to study, he asked him the details of the compilation of the book.
Xie Lin did not hide it, and said that Xie Xiuwen was thinking about the poor students in the world.
"Xie Eddie means that after the compilation of this book is completed, it will be sold at a low price, mainly in the hope that readers all over the world can have the opportunity to read the first works of the great Confucians."
"This is a good thing, you two can just compile the book, and I will let the eldest prince take care of the relevant matters later."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Since it was too clear, and there was also the attention of the saint, Xie Xiuwen and Xie Lin discussed it, and selected a few masterpieces of Emperor Jingwen in it, so that students all over the world could know that the saint was a monarch of culture and martial arts.
Because they don't have to worry about subsequent printing and sales, they can save a lot of energy.
The eldest prince Li Zheng came to the Hanlin Academy, and at this time he saw that the two had already completed the compilation of the first volume, and after he read it carefully, he couldn't help but look at these two upstarts differently.
Although the two of them have just entered the officialdom, they have indeed made great achievements in this knowledge.
There are not only the articles of those great Confucian masters, but also some analytical footnotes of the two of them, and they are indeed talented people.
"In this case, the main hall will print out the upper volume first, and publish it one day sooner, so that the readers can benefit one day sooner."
"What His Highness said is very true."
Xie Xiuwen pleaded again: "If the last volume is printed, I wonder if you can give Weichen ten volumes?" Your Highness rest assured, this booklet can be bought at the expense of the minister. ”
Li Zheng smiled slightly: "What does Lord Xie want?" ”
"My hometown is far away from the capital, and even if this book is printed, I am afraid that I may not be able to buy it in my hometown this year, so I think I can send it to my hometown classmates one day earlier."
Li Zheng nodded: "But, this book was compiled by the two of you, why do you need money?" At that time, the main hall will send someone to deliver it. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Li Zheng's movements were fast, and within a few days, Xie Xiuwen got ten copies of "Famous Scholars".
"Douzi, send these two volumes to Fuyuan Villa, one to Mr. and the other to Jingzhou, so that they can carefully read the works of the sages."
"Yes, sir."
Xie Xiuwen kept two volumes by himself, and the remaining six volumes were all sent to Mingshan Academy and Gaoyang County in Fucheng, including two volumes of Mingshan Academy.
Cheng Xuezheng is now the Xuezheng of Gaoyang County, and the remaining four books were all sent to him, but Xie Xiuwen asked him to send one of the books to Xiejiazhuang, hand it over to Xie's father, and then copy it for the Xie Academy in the future.
Although Cheng Xuezheng is from a good background, his family education is limited, and not all the works of sages have been read.
Especially now that I get this volume of "Famous Scholars", there are articles written by Confucianism hundreds of years ago, and my mood is naturally surging.
"Zicheng. The noble character is admired by the foolish brother! ”
Xie Xiuwen's move naturally made his status in the hearts of many readers rise all the way.
Xie Xiuwen never shy away from talking about his background, a small rich family, not poor, but it can never be said that he was born rich, after all, the year he was born, his grandfather was dismissed.
He entered the court by himself, but he did not forget his former classmates, which made the Xie clan and the classmates of Mingshan Academy very grateful.
The reason why this volume came out quickly is actually mainly because he and Schelling have been paying attention to this aspect for a long time, and both of them have the habit of collecting excerpts.
But the next volume will be slower, and it is estimated that it will not come out until the end of the year at the earliest.
Xie Xiuwen is different from Xie Lin in that he is more transparent in terms of human accidents.
For example, on the final signature of this "Famous Scholar", it is clear that their direct officials and several adults have not participated, but he still proposed to add the names of several adults, so it can be regarded as a good sale, after all, if you don't admit it, when you go to the saint, several adults also have this credit.
Winter is already in the blink of an eye, and the weather is getting colder and colder.
Xie Xiuwen took his wife and daughter and some things to visit a few children in Fuyuan Villa.
"I'm afraid it's going to be colder on the mountain, husband, let's ask, or take a few children to live in Beijing." Isn't it all the same where you study? ”
