"Your Majesty trusts you so much?" Gu Qingling was a little surprised. Didn't he say that the ancient royal family was ruthless and had no real feelings?
Why did Li Wenchong say that Emperor Mingguang trusted him so much?
"Isn't this normal? I'm the royal brother's younger brother!" He won't leave any heirs, so what's the point of rebellion?
His royal brother is not stupid.
But wait, what if Gu Qingling leaves him a son and a half daughters in the future?
…
Forget it, let's talk about it then.
This matter has not been decided yet.
Even if there is a child, it may not be a son.
In the next room, Yao Jiuye sneezed: "Aqiu——"
Shusu, the maid who was waiting nearby, hurried over and touched his little hands and back to make sure he didn't catch a cold.
"Master Ninth, aren't you cold?" Even though she had the answer in her heart, the eldest maid Su Shu followed the old lady Gu Qingling's instructions and asked Master Yao Jiu as if he were a big child.
Yao Jiuye shook his head and continued playing with the blocks in front of him.
This set of toys was newly designed. According to his progress, Gu Qingling asked people to readjust the difficulty and designed a house.
What Yao Jiuye has to do now is to take the building blocks and lay out the house according to the design drawing that comes with the toy.
I don’t know if he was influenced by Lingquan, but Yao Jiuye is not only serious about his work, but the little guy is also very smart and can already build a simple small house.
Of course, it is not ruled out that he will receive positive feedback from adults every time he completes it - everyone praises him for doing a great job and gives out little red flowers.
Even though Yao Jiuye didn't understand it at first, once or twice, when the little red flowers accumulated to a certain amount, he would be able to eat a bowl of particularly delicious cakes.
The greedy Yao Jiuye couldn't bear to miss the delicious food. He waved his little arm and started working hard.
----------------------------------------
Gu Qingling didn't know if Emperor Mingguang really believed him as Li Wenchong said, she said, "Then your Majesty knows about you and me, right?"
Li Wenchong was stunned. How could he have the nerve to tell his imperial brother such an embarrassing thing?
Could it be that he wanted to tell his royal brother that he had been drugged and accidentally "sleeped" with a woman who could be his mother?!
Oh My God!
His royal brother had to laugh him to death.
Gu Qingling took a look at his expression and guessed something, and said: "So, Your Majesty doesn't know? Then... you still say you want to marry me? Are you sure that your royal brother will agree to my marriage if he knows about it? The emperor was angry,
Blood is flowing like a river, you don’t want to let the Yao family..."
"No, don't get me wrong." Li Wenchong quickly denied, "I don't want my brother to know. Isn't it because you haven't agreed yet? If you agree, I will definitely tell my brother."
"You are a prince, but you don't want to marry a wealthy family in the capital. If you marry me, an old lady who has been married before, will your brother agree? Or are you going to hide your beauty in a golden house?" Gu Qingling had never thought of agreeing to him before.
Of course I haven't thought about it.
But now that we have finished talking, why does she feel that something is wrong?
So, how did he feel that he was "sincere" and that she would believe him?
"As long as I am willing, my emperor brother will definitely agree." Li Wenchong was very sure. "I have never been able to get married before, and my emperor brother was anxious to death. Now I finally have the news. As long as he is not a man, he will agree..."
If you marry a man, it will harm the reputation of the royal family.
Emperor Mingguang didn't mind him having fun in private, but he definitely didn't want this kind of thing to spread.
In comparison, he was just marrying an older woman. At most, he would be said to have "some weird habits." Considering that he had been "single" for so many years, his royal brother could still bear it.
The more Li Wenchong said this, the more strange it seemed to Gu Qingling. According to normal logic, which emperor would tolerate his younger brother marrying an old woman who could be his mother?
What's more, Li Wenchong was Emperor Mingguang's favorite younger brother.
Could it be that Emperor Mingguang didn't actually love Li Wenchong that much?
Suspicion was doubtful, but after testing for a long time, Gu Qingling was certain of one thing, that is - in order to marry her, Li Wenchong had quite a lot of room to make concessions.
In this case, it shouldn't be a big deal if she tried to trick him into using "movable type printing", right?
Without talking nonsense to him, Gu Qingling said that in fact, she came to see him today because she wanted to ask him something, and she didn't know if he would agree to it.
She reassured Li Wenchong that this matter was not all bad. If it was done well, it would be good for him.
"What's up?"
"Master Qian is yours, right?"
"Well, didn't you know that a long time ago?"
Gu Qingling said: "Then you should also know that I have a bookshop, and I have a group of craftsmen in the bookshop."
Li Wenchong nodded.
Mr. Qian bought a lot of books from Yao's bookshop, and he just passed them.
He also placed an order for some that he found interesting, picked up some, and sent them back to Beijing to give to his nephews and nieces.
"When these craftsmen were printing books, they accidentally made something that can make printing books easier." Gu Qingling said, "I plan to have Da Lang present it to the court when he goes to Beijing for an examination next year."
Li Wenchong didn't react for a while: "Wouldn't it be a good thing to make printing books easier? It just so happens that your bookshop can print books quickly, and it can also be used as a family heirloom and passed on to the next generation..."
Li Wenchong really didn't think much about it. He himself was not involved in the book printing business, but Mr. Qian also had a bookstore under his name, so he had heard about the fact that major aristocratic families had their own printing methods.
Which company has such a labor-saving method of printing books without hiding it and hoping to pass it on to the next generation?
But Gu Qingling actually said that he would hand it over to the court?
"You're not here for the invention prize and patent fees, are you? However, every family has the method of printing books. Even if you submit it to the court, no one will buy it, and you won't earn much in patent fees."
"Even if the Imperial Brother will give out some rewards, the money is not as good as what you can earn by buying books yourself."
…
Obviously, Li Wenchong's words underestimated the "movable type printing technology" in Gu Qingling's hands.
Nowadays, everyone still uses engraving printing. To print an article, a complete engraving needs to be carved. The only change is that all the engraving materials, printing ink materials and paper materials are different.
Very big.
Gu Qingling said that it would make printing books easier, and Li Wenchong also thought that it was just because he had discovered a certain material that was more useful, or that there had been improvements in the printing process.
Gu Qingling looked at him with a prophetic expression on her face. She knew how influential "movable type printing" was, but it was obvious that the man in front of her didn't quite understand.
If he knew that he not only improved paper, ink, and "movable type printing", he could turn a book that originally cost two silver into a few pennies, allowing everyone in the world to afford reading, he would probably go crazy.
.
The sage Confucius once said, there is no distinction between teaching and learning.
Unfortunately, the cost of studying is too high, and the right to study is still in the hands of a small number of rich and powerful people.
For a poor scholar's family, if they want to provide for a scholar, they have to devote all their efforts to providing for a scholar. Day after day, year after year, they may not be able to provide for him.
This is also the reason why there are many poor people in the world, but it is difficult to find talented people.
Once Gu Qingling's "movable type printing" comes out, it will inevitably break the promotion channel where only the rich and powerful can afford to read, and touch the interests of the rich and powerful in various aristocratic families, thus...
