Chapter 172 A Revolution About Scholars Six (New Year's Day [-]nd update)

"Knowing that he will definitely offend the nobles in the world on this trip, and knowing that there are things that cannot be done, why does he still agree to your request?" Huang Zhong, as Mujing's personal bodyguard, has been standing less than one foot away from Mujing. In the distance, he watched Xi Zhicai's departure with his eyes, feeling a little puzzled in his heart.

His thoughts of a warrior seem to never be able to keep up with those of those scholars.

"Because he is a scholar!"

Mu Jing heard the words, and answered deeply.

"Scholar?" Huang Zhong frowned.

"Yes, scholars!" Mu Jing said indifferently: "The world always thinks that the imperial court treats scholars favorably, but scholars are indeed a little higher than others. Useful, but scholars also have a little more quality that you can't understand, they dare to go to the world for what they want in their hearts, and it's not against them!"

There are more scholars than others, which is a power of belief. Although this is only a very rough belief, this kind of power can also make scholars fearless.

"My lord, you are also a scholar!"

"There are many kinds of readers!"

"You should be the most cunning one!" Huang Zhong said very directly and frankly.

"Ha ha!"

Mu Jing laughed loudly: "Uncle Zhong knows me too!"

After he gave a hearty smile, he calmed down, with a stern expression on his face, and said in a deep voice to Huang Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, Uncle Huo wants to take care of the mansion, and I have dispatched three hundred elite soldiers to the West Garden to guard the Yinjian Prison. It is under your command, and the safety of the Yinjian Prison is left to Uncle Zhong!"

"What do you mean, there will be trouble with the Printing Supervision?"

"Be prepared!"

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, how could anyone dare to touch the court's official offices?" Huang Zhong said incredulously as his face changed.

In Huang Zhong's mind, the foot of the Son of Heaven should be the place with the best law and order. How could anyone dare to blatantly attack the imperial government office? Don't they know that this is a capital offense?

"Those who are in a hurry to jump over the wall will dare!"

Mu Jing suffered a loss once, he won't suffer a second time, he doesn't want to burn his own government office, so he must prepare for the worst, the appearance of movable type printing has shaken the family's trust Basically, in case people from aristocratic and wealthy families become anxious, he will fight this battle.

……

In the next two days, Jingping's study was completely popular in Luoyang City. Whether it was among scholars or ordinary people, it gained a monstrous reputation.

"Brother Mo, today I'm here to give you a New Year's gift!"

"Brother Liu, you are being polite, you are..."

"These are the books I bought from Jingping Study. There are ten books in total. It's interesting enough!"

"You bought it too. In fact, I also bought several copies. This book looks very clear and neat, much more neat than the copied books!"

"And it's cheap. For us scholars, it's the best gift!"

"What is it!"

"..."

"The books in Jingping Study are so good, they are the gospel of our scholars. With such good books, we won't be able to read countless books in the future!"

"I think so too. I thought that if I wanted to read this "Ram", I would have to copy ten books for the Tan family. Now I bought it for only [-] yuan, and I also gave a copy of "" "University", God help me too!"

"..."

"Although there are books in our Taixue, there are not many books. The time for reading has always been relatively tight. Now it's better. With so many books, we can read slowly!"

"There are books to read, and the world is good. Let's tell all the students about this, don't miss this great opportunity!"

"..."

"Brother Li, where are you going? Aren't you going to celebrate the New Year with us at Weifu today?"

"I'm not going, I'm reading today!"

"Looking at the book, where did you get the book, is it sent by Mr. Wei?"

"Of course not. How can Mr. Wei be so generous? In the past, we flattered him for many days and he was unwilling to give us a book for reference. Now there is a Jingping study in the city. Books are cheap, and only cost [-] yuan." , you can buy one and get one free, everything you need, why should I be Wei Xu's running dog in the future!"

"It's such a good thing, then I'll go and see it too!"

"..."

Countless scholars became ecstatic because of the appearance of these books in Jingping Study.

Although the gentry are the nobles of the gentry, relatively speaking, there are more scholars from poor families. Because they can't read books on weekdays, they can only follow the nobles of the gentry. Now that they have the opportunity, they naturally want to study in a dignified manner.

At the same time, the appearance of this book also shocked the strength of all parties in the court. Some people lamented, some were frightened, and some even wanted to know how these books came from...

Outside the Zhengyang Gate.

Taixue Academy.

Now is a time to rest and take a bath. Some scholars from the Taixue who study far away are still in the house, and others have already gone to take a rest.

Cai Yong is Taixue's sacrificial wine. In order to save the reputation and status of Taixue that has been damaged over the years, he is very concerned about Taixue's affairs. teaching plan.

"Master Jijiu, someone is giving gifts outside the door!"

"Gift?"

Cai Yong frowned: "Send them away!"

He is a Qingliu scholar, and he is quite resistant to these gifts. The reason why he hid in Taixue was because he didn't want to be blocked by people in the mansion. After all, there are still many people walking around his door during the New Year festivals.

"promise!"

"Wait!" Cai Yong thought about it, but he still couldn't refuse too directly, after all, he should show some affection: "Who are they?"

"They claim to be from the Marquis Mansion of Xi'e Township!"

"The Marquis Mansion of Xi'e Township?"

Cai Yong was taken aback for a moment, then he remembered: "That fellow Mulongtu?"

He doesn't have a good impression of Mujing, because Mujing has an aggressive and oppressive force, which is very different from Shilin Qingliu's inaction and governance, but it is undeniable that this person has been remembered by him.

"Bring it in!" Cai Yong said, "I want to see what gift this guy gave me!"

"promise!"

Menshi quickly walked in with four soldiers carrying a large box.

The leader is Huo Yu, the chief steward of the Hou's Mansion in Xi'e Township.

"Huo Yu, the Marquis Mansion of Xi'e Township, pay homage to Lord Jijiu!"

Huo Yu is a scholar, and he is absolutely respectful to Cai Yong, the supreme giant among scholars.

"What gift does your family ask you to give this old man?"

"These are gifts carefully selected by the prince!" Huo Yu said, pointing to the box.

"Open!"

"promise!"

When the box was opened, a strong smell of book ink came to the nostrils.

"These books?"

"The prince said that he kept his promise to Master Jijiu!" Huo Yu said with a bow.

Cai Yong became excited. He walked up and flipped through the pages of the book. The neat fonts made him very excited: "Sure enough, it is the technique of rubbing. He didn't lie to me. All books in the world can be rubbed." Come out, hahahaha, Shilin is hopeful..."

……

in the palace.

The emperor is enjoying family happiness, he is studying with the prince Bianhe and the prince Xie.

"Bian'er, you are an elder brother, you should teach your younger brother to read well, teach him to understand the truth, teach him to understand himself!"

"Yes, Father!"

Liu Bian was only fourteen years old and looked very handsome, but in front of the emperor, there was a trace of cowardice in his expression
"Xie'er, although you are young, you are quite intelligent. You must study hard with your teacher. I have already planned to send you to the Imperial Academy. You will go there after the new year. There are countless people in the Imperial Academy who are well-educated. If you want Study hard, I even picked a companion to read for you!"

"Father, my sons will always remember Father's teachings!"

Liu Xie bowed and said with a smile.

"Father, my son also wants to study in the Taixue, okay?" Liu Bian looked enviously at Liu Xie Neng and casually acting like a baby with his father, but he didn't dare.

"You also want to go to Taixue?"

"I have heard that Taixue Cai Jijiu is a Ming Confucian in the world. If I can worship under my sect, I should be able to increase my knowledge!"

"Alright, the atmosphere in this palace school is not as good as the atmosphere in Taixue after all. You are about to grow up, and you should also see the world. You don't expect you to succeed in your studies, but you just hope that your future personality will be better. Be firm!"

The emperor is a heart-wrenching father. It's not that he doesn't like the prince Liu Bian. More than half of his sons died young, and only two survived. He likes everyone, but Liu Bian is soft-tempered, but he has a strong relative. , which made him very uneasy.

"Follow father's instruction!" Liu Bian nodded.

"Father, why does this book look so neat?" Liu Xie flipped through the Analects in his hand, and asked somewhat unclearly: "And I have seen some doctors in palace studies transcribe books, and the books they transcribed seem to be read It's like I don't understand!"

"That's because the book was rubbed!" The emperor replied patiently.

"Rubbing?"

Liu Xiehao asked: "What is rubbing?"

"Bian'er, answer my brother's question!"

"promise!"

Liu Bian said: "Brother, the so-called rubbing, even if the engraved characters and patterns are branded exactly the same, but this method is rarely successful, and only the Xiping Stone Classic before the Taixue was successfully rubbed!"

"The argument is wrong!"

The emperor smiled and said: "It's not that no one has succeeded, but someone has already succeeded. The method of rubbing can make the world's books rubbed countless times, and it can save scholars from the plight of having no books to read. This is God's help to the great man." also!"

Although he was in the palace, his heart was always outside the palace. Every hour, someone would report to him in detail about the situation in Jingping's study.
