Cheng Zhijie's face was full of bad luck... Well, his face was red and white, and his beard was messy. It was hard to tell what kind of expression he had on his face.
It's just that he doesn't look like a good person when he looks evil...
Returning to Gao Jipu, the man muttered, "It means that the family background is better, it is all the credit of the ancestors, and I don't know what the air is? A bunch of sons of bitches..."
Apparently he was quite unhappy at the cold reception he received there.
Gao Jifu looked at his appearance and couldn't help but advise: "The emperor is coming, let's avoid it..."
Half a day's experience made him deeply realize that it is best not to deal with people who can shout your name on the street, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.
According to the temperament shown by Cheng Dabeard these days, he felt that this guy would not listen to him, and it was in line with his behavior to show his face in front of the emperor regardless.
But Cheng Zhijie did not act according to common sense, patted Gao Jifu on the shoulder and said: "What the wise brother said is true, let's stay away now. It's not good for the Supreme Being to see me in this embarrassed state."
Gao Jifu said to his heart that it is not easy to hear a human word from you.
Turning around, Cheng Dabeard started bragging again, "That means I'm soft-hearted... Otherwise, if I show the Supreme Being how Luo Sanlang beat me like this, the Supreme Being will definitely not be able to spare Luo Sanlang..."
Okay, Gao Jifu sighed deeply. This guy is too thick-skinned and basically has no sense of shame. He obviously thinks too much.
…………………………
Duan Lun and Dou Dan watched the bearded man walk away. Duan Lun couldn't help but laugh and said: "This man is really courageous. He is an exception to be alive till now."
It is a very dangerous thing to try to make friends with nobles without any intention. The nobles may be impressed by your talents, or they may smile at your stupidity, or even more, they may be amused by your ignorance.
If you are offended by your outrageous behavior, I will order someone to chop off your head with a knife.
Cheng Zhijie wanted to deal with the nobles like he did in Luoyang, but that was not feasible in Chang'an.
Dou Dan was not as proud as Duan Lun, but he just nodded and said in agreement: "This person really doesn't know what to say... The Holy Driver will be here soon, let's..."
Duan Lun said: "Let's welcome him together. Where can we go now?"
Duan Lun was slightly troubled. He was marrying Li Yuan's daughter and had nothing to do with Xinjun, so facing him would not be of much benefit to him... Dou Dan was different from him. He had to seize every opportunity he got to get rid of the current situation.
dilemma.
………………………………
When Li Po arrived, the entire camp had already pressed the pause button.
The academy occupies an extremely large area, with six or seven core buildings, and the rest are landscape groups such as pavilions and pavilions. In fact, it is almost as big as building a mansion.
A place where people live has places to study, places to play and gather, not to mention places to eat and drink, and several libraries must be built.
Yun Dingxing, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, has been showing off his merits. The progress of the project really surprised Li Po. The Ministry of Industry has contributed a lot. Just like the boats used to cross the river last year, Yun Dingxing's talents have been fully demonstrated, and
His ability to flatter others was in sharp contrast.
In fact, both Taichang Temple and Shaofu were not idle. He Chou personally designed the engineering drawings. When he followed Yu Wenkai and others to build the Daxing City Palace, it was he who supervised the construction of the Guanwen Hall in the palace. Many years later,
It is also a rare fate to build another Chang'an Academy to house the collection of books.
The Shaofu provided the construction and smelting materials needed for the project, and the craftsmen's skills were revealed in the work. Once the drawings of Taichang Temple were released, they had to go around the Shaofu, General, and Ministry of Works before they could be implemented.
As for what the Ministry of Industry does, they are not afraid of being laughed at. They are the most authoritative project management department. They only have officials. All matters related to the project are under their supervision or command.
For example, farmland, water conservancy and other projects in each county must be registered with the Ministry of Industry. Every year, officials from the Ministry of Industry will go to each county to inspect to see if the local government is deceiving the central government, committing malfeasance, or inspecting
There are quality issues in various projects, and there is also the need to guide subordinate officials in various places to understand the imperial decrees, etc.
There is no doubt that the emergence of the six ministries is entirely due to the need for centralization of power. Most of them perform duties such as supervision, inspection, and guidance.
Li Po's patrol here does not have much substantive significance. It is more to tell people that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter and should not try to challenge the emperor's patience and authority on this matter.
Regarding specific matters, Li Po was actually similar to the officials in the Ministry of Industry and had little interest. What he wanted to see was a result that echoed his expectations.
Feng Deyi said that it would be completed in two months. At this speed, Li Po did not doubt that he was bragging.
When he saw Luo Shixin, Feng Deyi was telling Li Po that the collection of books and classics in Guanwen Hall had been divided into several categories. The most precious ones would continue to be hidden in Guanwen Hall and would be copied and displayed by others.
In the academy.
The other category is books banned by the imperial court. Some of them are also hidden in Guanwen Hall. After screening, most of them will not be displayed in front of others and will be left to gather dust in Guanwen Hall.
In addition, there are some books edited under the supervision of Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang, and there are quite a few of them. Feng Deyi is asking for permission to move to the academy. This is tantamount to making Yang Guang famous. For the new emperor, he must be generous.
This is a measure that can only be implemented, because in this season, throwing dirty water on Yang Guang is what people should do.
As expected, Li Po had great magnanimity and directly told Feng Deyi that as long as the books compiled by Yang Guang were beneficial to people, just like the Illustrated Chronicle of the Western Regions, they could be published all over the world and allow nobles and scholars to take a look at the outside world.
, so as to avoid the worry of being complacent in the future.
Yun Dingxing listened at the side, and the flattery immediately came in like a tide, which made Feng Deyi, who was about to pat the emperor's measure, disgusted.
Li Po was also a little annoyed by Yun Dingxing, so he casually asked about the affairs of the Ministry of Works. After a few words, Yun Dingxing was sweating, especially because the Ministry of Works could not keep up with the Ministry of Household Affairs in the field.
His footsteps were being chased and kicked by Su Dan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Whenever Su Tan goes to the palace to meet the emperor recently, he always has to bury the Ministry of Works...
Yun Dingxing felt that he was wronged. His bad reputation made the officials of the Ministry of Works disobedient. Some people, such as Duan Lun, the minister of the Ministry of Works, looked down upon him and would come to trouble him no matter what.
Improve the efficiency of the Ministry of Industry.
If you say it's none of his business, it's not... If it weren't for him, Yun Dingxing, the officials of the Ministry of Works wouldn't be so resistant. You say it's none of his business, but he is the Minister of the Ministry of Works.
The position is conscientious and there is not much to blame.
Many people in the court wanted to get him removed, and most of the people in the three provinces and six ministries did not like him very much. The reason why he was still sitting in the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry was because the emperor did not speak.
Li Po was confident in his heart. People like Yun Dingxing needed to be retained. What a good target and person to take the blame. They could play a big role in critical situations.
And the more others exclude him, the more he will move closer to the imperial power. What emperor would be stupid not to like such a loyal and talented scoundrel.
Yun Dingxing was so frightened by the emperor's question that he finally closed his mouth pitifully, and everyone's battered ears suddenly became much quieter.
Feng Deyi began to praise the emperor's wisdom and generosity, and Li Po accepted it with peace of mind... But he was muttering in his heart that the bad things Yang Guang did were not just a few books or the cities and channels he built.
Can be concealed.
Later, when people benefited, they might give him a few words of praise, but no one could change the fact that Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was a tyrant.
In total, there are about 24,000 books that can be transferred to Chang'an Academy at any time, which is already a very huge number for today's world.
What made Yun Dingxing's eyes turn blue with envy was that Feng Deyi was still showing off his merits. After learning about the emperor's "good deeds", people in Chang'an were planning to donate the books in their homes, but they didn't know how much they would get.
Li Po nodded "pleasedly" and said words of praise casually, "People are united and have good intentions. This is a sign of rectifying chaos..."
During the Daye period, countless libraries opened in Chang'an, Luoyang and other places, and it became a fashion for aristocratic families and official families to collect books.
For example, when Li Jing returned to Chang'an that year and his family was unable to survive, he exchanged the military books he had stored for some food and money and survived the most difficult days.
Isn’t it a bit incredible that there are still people in such an era who are enriching their collections? You must know that at that time, the people in the Mayi frontier fortress were so hungry that their eyes glowed green...
Li Po withdrew his association, and it was not much better now than that. But when it comes to the collection of books in Chang'an, it must be the best in history, and Li Po also heard that because there are more people collecting books, there are still more books.
It promoted the paper production process, and printing technology in the south also made great progress.
I just don’t know if woodblock printing has already appeared...
Once the emperor shows his preference, people will naturally come forward to flatter him. If the emperor is happy, many people will follow suit.
There are many people collecting books in Chang'an, and more and more people will donate. Soon, Chang'an Academy will become the largest book collection in the world.

After talking to Feng Deyi, he met Luo Shixin.
He had just had a fight with someone, and his face was radiant, and he was more energetic than usual. However, he was slightly swollen after being punched in the face, and the time was short, but it did not affect his view.
Li Po looked at him, and Luo Shixin came up to him, pushed Yun Dingxing away, and reported in a low voice, "Brother's guess was really accurate. That guy came to look for me again and had a fight with me. I didn't
It's embarrassing for my brother, but he came faster and couldn't break his legs..."
Li Po was very angry when he heard that, and he gave him a slap on the head, "You actually fight with others in public? It's really embarrassing. Next time, remember to find a place where no one is around, okay?"
