Chapter three hundred and seventy-fifth: the gift of calligraphy(1/2)
Zhang Qian used words carefully.
After all, it is involved in the Chen family, so it is difficult for His Majesty to predict what he is thinking.
The reason why he felt that the situation was serious was that the news in the news newspaper was too detailed. What big things happened in the world were sorted out in an orderly manner... This was almost more detailed than the Bai Qi's report.
Li Shimin was also frightened to see it, and he hurriedly said to Zhang Qian: "Come and report the news from hundreds of horsemen."
Zhang Qian did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly picked up a stack of reports.
Li Shimin sat down and immediately read the report compiled by the hundreds of chasers last night!
It would be fine if I didn't read it, but after I looked it, I found that many things in the news newspaper were not much different from the Baiqi Memorial Report.
There are even some...the records are even more detailed than the Baiqi.
this……
Baiqi is a palace specialist in inquiring about the news, which can be said to be Li Shimin's eyes and ears.
But the Chen family is amazing and actually created a system similar to the Hundred Riders. How much does it cost?
Li Shimin seemed unhappy and said, "What's the intention of Chen Zhengtai doing this?"
Zhang Qian smiled and replied carefully: "This... I heard that his newspaper only sells thirty documents per piece, and now it is sold everywhere..."
Li Shimin frowned and said coldly: "Thirty-five, what can I do? How did this person get into the money?"
Now, Zhang Qian was so tactful that he didn't say anything.
Li Shimin immediately said to the little eunuch beside him: "Go and summon Chen Zhengtai to Ziwei Palace first. I have something to ask him."
After hearing this, the little eunuch left in a hurry.
Li Shimin still lowered his head and continued to look at the newspaper.
There are all kinds of information in this newspaper. In addition, there are some articles. Li Shimin has an impression of Deng Jian here... After carefully reading it, he suddenly remembered something and said, "What's the matter with the Dou family's search?"
Zhang Qiandao: "The Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple are still conducting thorough investigations, but I heard that the family property is complicated, so... it will take some time."
Li Shimin nodded deeply. He had been looking forward to the search of the Dou family for a long time and had been looking forward to new news.
However, the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple were doing things slowly. Although he was a little anxious, he did not show any expression. After all,... he had more time, so don't miss anything.
"We need to pay special attention to this matter, and Baiqi also needs to allocate some people to help." Li Shimin calmed down and said, "I will send another censor. I always feel uncomfortable."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qian hurriedly said yes.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Zhengtai had already arrived. He entered the hall and saluted: "Your Majesty, my son..."
Li Shimin glanced at him, raised the news newspaper in his hand, and said to Chen Zhengtai: "What is this?"
"News." Chen Zhengtai answered honestly.
"News..." Li Shimin glared at him and said, "Of course I know this is news. What I want to ask you is, what does it mean when you print these and sell them everywhere?"
Chen Zhengtai said aggrievedly: "Didn't Your Majesty worry that all the aristocratic clans set up hundreds of horses? My son will share your worries with His Majesty. Of course... he will kill this atmosphere hard."
Li Shimin: “…”
"Your Majesty." Chen Zhengtai looked at Li Shimin with a certain expression: "Have you ever thought about what the consequences would be if all the aristocratic clans set up hundreds of horses? These people have great family affairs, have been rooted for hundreds of years, have strong strength, have thousands of children in the family, and have countless tribes. Not only do they have a large number of officials in the court, but their relatives are also spread all over the world. If such a family set up hundreds of horses, it will be unimaginable to the court."
Speaking of this, Chen Zhengtai paused before continuing: "It's just that they... set up a hundred cavalry, which was done secretly. If His Majesty strictly prohibits it, they can change their appearance and use other names. Can the court keep track of it? What's more, the matter involved is not one family and one surname, but the people of a hundred families. They are well-informed, and if there is any movement in the world, they can quickly learn that every move in the court is clearer than anyone else."
When Li Shimin heard this, his brows frowned even deeper, and that was exactly what he was worried about.
At this time, Chen Zhengtai continued: "Since it cannot be eliminated, this message is so important. Instead of spending countless efforts to ban it, it is better to simply use countless manpower and material resources to convey the news faster than them. Then ask a large amount of manpower to select important ones from the numerous news, publish them directly into newspapers, and then let those newspapers be sold on the streets. In this way, everyone in the world knows the latest news, so wouldn't the hundreds of horses set up secretly by the aristocratic clans...the hundreds of horses set up secretly, but they can easily get it thirty texts a day, so what's the use of these hundreds of horses that have been built with countless hard work? The reason why this information is important is that I know that others don't know, so that I can make profits from it. But once the world knows it, this message will be worthless."
When Li Shimin heard this, his face calmed down a little!
From this point of view, Chen Zhengtai's words are not without reason.
only……
Li Shimin said: "If this is the case, wouldn't there be no hidden things in the world?"
Chen Zhengtai said: "This is the key to the problem. If everyone knows the news, then the establishment of hundreds of cavalry will lose its meaning. Then the people of the world will have to rely on this news to report the world. Although this newspaper is owned by the Chen family, the prince's minister also gave half of the shares. Of course, making money is not the most important thing in this matter. The most important thing is that His Majesty wants to issue an edict and decree, which can also be copied in this newspaper. In this way, wouldn't it be possible to achieve the effect of being informed by the top and the top? News newspapers are better in the palace than being used by others. If you don't talk about anything else, just say that this newspaper
Which one is important to the palace, so you can put it on the front page! Which one does not think it is better to publish it on the world? Or it may be placed on the last page or not. Your Majesty... Since ancient times, it has been difficult for the emperor to leave the palace because even if the three provinces drafted the edict and sent it out, the ones who conveyed these wills were the powerful people of the aristocratic races and localities. These people often hide edicts that are not good for them, or pretended not to know or did not report it. Now, it only takes thirty words to know the world. Isn’t this good news for the palace?"
Chen Zhengtai immediately said: "Tonight, this news newspaper will start publishing news again. My son begs your Majesty... to give it an article... so that this news newspaper... can add a touch."
Li Shimin had actually heard the intention. What Chen Zhengtai said was indeed not unreasonable. It was a thing that any dynasty was doing, and the Tang Dynasty... naturally, it was impossible to avoid the common people.
But how to deal with it? Will you kill people and destroy the clan directly? At that time, I was afraid that Wang Mang would become, and I would have to make the world full of war.
However... it may not be a way to eradicate the advantages of the aristocratic race. When the messages received by ordinary people and the aristocratic races are the same, then... the advantages of the aristocratic races are naturally less.
Just... let him, the emperor, write an article...
Li Shimin looked at Chen Zhengtai suspiciously and said, "I am the emperor, what are you doing to write articles?"
Chen Zhengtai said: "Your Majesty's imperial gift is not favorable to the people just now... Your Majesty, you might as well give it a try."
Try it...
Li Shimin was ready to move deep down.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I wrote it myself, and I am not allowed to write it on Hanlin?"
"Why do you need someone else to write your good words?" Chen Zhengtai said while speaking, and his words were a bit like fanning the flames.
After hearing this, Li Shimin cheered up and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll try it."
Li Shimin actually cheered up and felt... maybe he could really test the response.
But...what should I write?
Li Shimin would not ask Chen Zhengtai about this.
After all, Chen Zhengtai is his disciple, so how can he be a teacher to ask students the truth?
So he frowned and began to scrape his stomach. Zhang Qian, who was beside him, reminded: "Your Majesty, all the officials are going to enter the court."
Li Shimin was in a daze for a moment. If you let him get on the horse and carry a knife to chop people, he is an expert. However, although his educational level is not low, he is still far from being able to squeeze it out casually. He is thinking about how to deal with Zhang Qian?
So he said with confidence: "Today's discussion, let's give up."
"Ah..." Zhang Qian was stunned and said hurriedly: "This year has just passed, and it is the beginning of spring..."
Li Shimin interrupted him heroically: "Okay, stop talking nonsense."
Chen Zhengtai has already said goodbye.
Zhang Qianze obediently conveyed His Majesty’s will.
Li Shimin's mind was focused on the article.
It took me a long time to pick up the pen.
When Zhang Qian came back, Li Shimin threw the completed article to Zhang Qian and said, "Send it to the news newspaper."
Zhang Qian looked speechless. His Majesty was furious just now because of the news newspaper. He turned his head and even went to write an article for the news newspaper. What's the matter?
But... Zhang Qian is quite vigilant about the news newspaper.
He is the Inner Eunuch and has to take care of the emperor, but at the same time, because he is too close to the emperor, all the cavalry in the palace are left to Zhang Qian to take care of!
But now that the news has come out, Baiqi's presence is probably going to be minimized.
When Zhang Qianmeng thought of this, he cheered up: "Your Majesty... I think... this... is not appropriate. Although Mr. Chen was talking about it just now, I think that if the news newspaper... sells it for money, there will inevitably be some evil words. Once the evil words confuse the public, even... the people know the world's affairs, but I'm afraid... it will ruin people's hearts... Now Your Majesty has written an essay. Wouldn't it vigorously advocate and encourage these things? This is something that has never been seen before, if it is..."
Li Shimin said lightly: "Of course I know, do I not know that I am not as clear as you? Zhengtai is talking about whether it is a mess or whether this thing is useful. Why don't I give it a try? Send it to me."
Zhang Qian didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he took the article obediently and left in a hurry.
…………
Outside the Tai Chi Gate.
The ministers were already bombed.
Your Majesty suddenly dismissed today's court discussion, and this is not a matter of such a thing, but the general reasons are the reasons for the saint's lack of peace.
But today, there is no reason, which is...it seems a bit unusual.
Wei Xuanzhen stood outside the palace, her mind was still a little confused and not very clear.
Through conversations with many people, he roughly confirmed one thing in his heart, that is, the Wei family has worked hard and used countless manpower and material resources, and now all of them have been wasted.
I can't bear it.
In fact, there are many people who think like Wei Xuanzhen.
Someone has begun to whisper: "I am afraid that people will be confused by the time they spread evil words."
Wei Xuanzhen looked closely and recognized that the person who said this was the censor.
Many people nodded and expressed their approval.
Wei Xuanzhen couldn't help but say, "That's the extreme. I've read the news newspaper for a while. There were thieves in Yuezhou, so how could they spread the world? Wouldn't this cause panic? What exactly should I do for this news newspaper?"
Everyone talked and scolded a lot.
Wei Xuanzhen then stroked her beard and smiled, "I think... if this continues, I'm afraid that something will really cause trouble."
To be continued...
