He stretched, stood up, walked to the coffee table and sat down.
Li Shimin also learned from Fang Yuan's layout in the Liaozhou Governor's Mansion and built a coffee table.
In your free time, or when ministers come to report, you can drink tea and chat here.
It can be said that after Fang Yuan launched the new tea, it greatly changed the living habits of people in the Tang Dynasty.
"Does Your Majesty know about my Mohist Research Institute?"
Fang Yuan sat down and said.
"Yeah, I know."
Li Shimin immediately became interested.
The Mohist Research Institute is located in the nine-story Star Observation Building.
The last time he entered the second level in Wuling County, he was very interested.
Later we arrived at Liaozhou City. Because it was being built, we didn’t have a chance to go inside again.
"I am going to rebuild in Chang'an City."
"I would like to ask Your Majesty to approve a piece of land and allow us to recruit craftsmen and other workers."
"Everything invented by the Mohist Research Institute will be used in people's lives with His Majesty's consent."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
This is what he came to the palace for today.
The establishment of the Mohist Research Institute in Chang'an City is not a big deal and does not require notification.
However, recruiting talents here may be impeached, and it may bring hidden dangers after development.
Rather than leaving hidden dangers, it is better to explain it to the emperor in advance. Li Shimin's open-mindedness will definitely have no objection.
"As the order of Chang'an, you can decide these things."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said.
The level of pleasure is even more exaggerated than Fang Yuan thought.
Because Fang Yuan didn’t know that he was Ying Mengxianchen in Li Shimin’s heart.
And Li Shimin also really wanted to know what was inside Fang Yuan's nine-story star observation tower.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Fang Yuan thanked him.
Make tea for Li Shimin in a flattering manner.
The tea leaves are all special grade tea sent by Du Miaoyan.
It smells different, and people who drink too much can taste it.
"Is there anything else?"
Li Shimin chuckled.
Generally, ministers will leave after talking.
Fang Yuan hasn’t left yet, he probably has other matters.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"There is someone who I would like to recommend to His Majesty!"
Fang Yuan patted Li Shimin's ass and said.
"You recommend talents?!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but look at Fang Yuan in surprise.
Fang Yuan has only arrived in Chang'an City for a few days, and someone has recommended him to him?
Or are we talking about talents discovered outside Chang'an City?
"There is a man named Ma Zhou who used to be a teaching assistant in Buzhou. Now he is the general of the Zhonglang family."
"I'm familiar with him, and I think he's a talent... This person is better than me, but he just lacks an opportunity."
Fang Yuan smiled and said.
After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Praise Ma Zhou."
According to historical records, Ma Zhou is really a very powerful talent.
"Your evaluation is so high?"
Li Shimin looked at Fang Yuan in disbelief.
Fang Yuan has been promoted so quickly. Although there are various opportunities, his own abilities are also very good.
Otherwise, even if he were the emperor and had Du Ruhui supporting him, he would not be able to achieve his current status.
But even so, Fang Yuan still agreed with Ma Zhou so much, which surprised Li Shimin and made him extremely curious about Ma Zhou.
At this moment, Li Shimin suddenly remembered that he had seen Ma Zhou's memorial before and asked someone to inquire about Ma Zhou's situation.
Later, because I was too busy, I forgot about such a talent. It was only when Fang Yuan mentioned it again that I remembered the character Ma Zhou, and I was instantly interested.
"Really talented."
Fang Yuan smiled and said.
Naturally, he didn't know that Li Shimin already knew something about Ma Zhou.
"I understand."
"Wang De, pass on Ma Zhou, I want to test him."
Li Shimin nodded and gave instructions to the eunuch Wang De on the side.
He was not very free, but he was very curious about Ma Zhou and worried that if he missed this time, he would forget such a talent.
"Then I will retire first."
Fang Yuan is ready to leave.
"Something to pay attention to recently."
"Keep an eye on Bishamon's evil obstacles."
Li Shimin did not persuade him to stay, but reminded him.
He has already begun to make plans, waiting for Bishamon's rebellion.
"Yes."
Fang Yuan should be.
Then he was taken away from the palace by the eunuchs.
Coincidentally, I met Ma Zhou when I left Zhuque Gate.
"Fang Yuan, thank you!"
Ma Yiyi looked at Fang Yuan and immediately understood what Fang Yuan meant.
He saluted heavily and was so grateful to Fang Yuan that he almost knelt on the ground.
"Brother Ma, are you okay like this?"
Fang Yuan looked at Ma Zhou a little worried.
I trimmed my edges and changed into some nice clothes.
But my face was red and smelled of alcohol, so I didn’t know if I was drunk or not.
"Don't worry, I'm not drunk, I can handle it easily!"
Ma Zhou waved his hand and said fearlessly.
But the smell of alcohol in his mouth made Fang Yuan worried.
It’s just that the emperor has already sent a message, so we can only wait and see what happens.
"Best wishes!"
Fang Yuan bid farewell to him.
After returning to the county government office, Fang Yuan asked people to invite Ju Zi and Zhou Shi.
Not long after, Juzi and Zhou Shi arrived, and Fang Yuan brought them into the conference room.
In the conference room, a very detailed map of Chang'an City, including one hundred and eight workshops, has been hung.
"Big brother, come and take a look at this map."
Fang Yuan greeted the giant and said.
"Fang Yuan, you don't want me to make this sandbox, do you?"
"I'm telling you, if you dare to speak, I will break off our relationship with you!"
When the giant saw the nearly two-square-meter map, his expression immediately changed.
Zhou Shi didn't think anything of it at first, but after hearing Juzi's words, his expression changed drastically.
He also helped make the sand table. He knew how difficult it was to make the sand table. The map in front of him was too big and it would be terrible to make.
"I misunderstood, I asked you to choose the location."
"Choose a place, and the Mohist Research Institute will no longer need to be built in the government."
Fang Yuan was stunned, then smiled with relief.
It turns out that I misunderstood the purpose of looking for them.
"Um, how about choosing a location?"
"Why do you want to choose a location outside the government?"
The giant breathed a sigh of relief.
But at the same time, I am curious about Fang Yuan’s intentions.
The construction in the city is quite good, safe and convenient.
Eating, resting, and studying are all very convenient.
"We will live in Chang'an City for a long time from now on."
“It’s no longer like other places where you have to move every few years.”
"The Mohist Research Institute will also develop and grow, so it needs to be more formal."
Fang Yuan said softly.
Chang'an City will be the base camp.
Then work and life must be distinguished.
Moreover, the Mohist Research Institute will become stronger and stronger as time goes by.
When the time comes, there will be more people in the Fang Mansion, which will cause inconvenience to both parties.
Not everyone is like a giant who only likes research, they also want to live, and staying in Fang Mansion will be like a cage.
"That's right, it needs to be formalized!"
Juzi thought for a while and murmured.
It needs to be formalized, and we might have to compete with Mo Cailing in the future.
In the past, I just thought of doing research to make a living, but Fang Yuan has been promoted to Chang'an Order, and he has to keep up with the speed.
"Well, let's choose a location."
Fang Yuan nodded, pointed at the map and said.
Juzi and Zhou Shi gradually became interested and walked towards the map to look at it.
"How about Quchifang?"
"This place is remote, with mountains and water, and a hibiscus garden in the distance."
Juzi pointed to a corner and asked.
Many research projects require water support.
There is a large Qujiang Pool next to Quchifang, which is enough for study.
The most important thing is that there are few people and it is quiet enough so you don’t have to worry about being disturbed.
"It should be fine."
"Get ready."
Fang Yuan thought for a while and said.
The Furong Garden opposite Quchifang is a royal garden and is often used for royal gatherings.
For the sake of safety, the court intentionally or unintentionally prohibited people from approaching there. There were almost mountains and rivers there.
Although the imperial court banned it intentionally or unintentionally, Fang Yuan was ordered by Chang'an, and no matter what the emperor wanted, there would be no problem in setting it there.
"Okay, is there anything else you need help with?"
Juzi nodded and said.
He doesn't have much to prepare.
The nine-story Star Observation Tower was redesigned when it was in Liaozhou City.
When the time comes, just rebuild it as it was in Liaozhou City.
"Recruiting talents!"
"You announce to the public that the Mohist giant has established a Mohist research institute to recruit talented craftsmen from all over the country. The monthly salary is 30, which includes food and accommodation."
"Chang'an ordered Fang Yuan to guarantee the whole process!"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Hiss!!!"
"Isn't it a little too shocking to be called a Mohist giant?"
The giant was a little shocked.
The Mohist family is a very large and chaotic organization, distributed throughout the Tang Dynasty.
If the Mohist Research Institute is established in the name of a Mohist giant, it may arouse dissatisfaction from the other two branches.
Moreover, Juzi is only a part of one of the three major branches, Xiangri Clan's Mo, and does not fully represent this branch.
Establishing the Mohist Research Institute under the name of a Mohist giant may become the public enemy of all Mohists, and it will be a trivial matter to be targeted at that time.
The Mohist Research Institute has been under construction in Fang Mansion for this reason.
"Don't be afraid."
"This is Chang'an City, and I am the Order of Chang'an."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Although it will attract attacks from other Mohist branches.
But this is the city of Chang'an, and I am the order of Chang'an. The soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth.
Bishamon is about to rebel, should we still worry about the Mohist branch coming to attack?
"Okay, domineering, then I don't have anything to worry about."
The giant was stunned for a moment, then said loudly.
With Fang Yuan's support behind him, there is nothing to worry about.
Although there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Chang'an City, Fang Yuan is the Order of Chang'an and is responsible for the security of Chang'an City.
Anyone who wants to target the Mohist Academy must go through Fang Yuan first, which is not an easy task.
"Go and sit and watch the Mo family's glory days again."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
Juzi and Zhou Shi nodded heavily and then left the county government office.
Not long after, Juzi began to promote the establishment of the Mohist Research Institute through Fang Yuan’s relationship.
There have been rumors about the Mohist family since ancient times. Although it is not easy to see them in this era, they are still famous.
Taking this opportunity, Fang Yuan used his government officials to erect billboards in every square of Chang'an City, a total of 108 billboards to advertise the Mohist Research Institute.
In half a day, everyone in Chang'an City knew that the Mohist giant was going to establish a Mohist research institute and recruit craftsmen with a monthly salary of thirty.
For a time, people were talking a lot.
"The Mohist giant established the Mohist Research Institute. He couldn't be the legendary Mohist giant, right?"
"I don't believe it. The Mohist family fell apart long ago during the Warring States Period. Those Mohist disciples in the world now are just trash. It can't be true."
"But Chang'an ordered Fang Yuan to vouch for the entire process and also gave him a monthly salary of thirty yuan, so it shouldn't be a lie, right?"
"Will you know soon? There will definitely be other Mohist disciples."
People have their own opinions.
As a talented craftsman, you are ready to take action.
Thirty dollars is not what attracts them the most, it is mainly the Mohist giants and Mohist technology.
Mohists have mastered many techniques. If you can learn one or two, you will definitely benefit a lot.
Ever since, the first person to eat crabs appeared and began to go to Fang Mansion to be interviewed by Juzi and others to examine basic skills.
With the first person, there will be a second person, and then more people will come to apply.
After the boss applied for the job, he asked them to leave their address and promised to notify them after a few days whether they passed the interview.
For several days, craftsmen came to Fang Mansion to apply for jobs.
After Fang Yuan helped with the advertisement, he ignored it.
But on this day, Fang Yuan, who was on duty at the county government office, was notified.
When I was applying for a job, a special guest came and asked him to go back.
Zhou Shi arrived in person, and after learning the identity of the other party, Fang Yuan returned with a solemn expression.
Fang Mansion, Fang Yuan Study Room.
A woman in palace attire stands in front of the bookshelf.
She held a book in her hand and read it with relish.
Looking from the side, this is a very beautiful young woman.
She is very white, but she is not rosy but looks sickly white.
After Fang Yuan entered the study room, the other party put down the book and faced Fang Yuan.
"Fang Ling is so young!"
The young woman looked at Fang Yuan and said with a smile like a flower.
"What do you call it?"
Fang Yuan looked at her for a long time before saying.
It's not that Fang Yuan doesn't know who she is, it's that he doesn't know how to address her.
Zheng Guanyin, the widow of Prince Yin, is also the Concubine Zheng in Qin Fang’s mouth!
She actually came to see Fang Yuan on the grounds of applying for the recruitment of Mojia Research Institute!
Fang Yuan didn't expect this at all, and he didn't know why she was looking for him?
"Whatever."
Zheng Guanyin smiled calmly.
"Please take a seat."
Fang Yuan frowned and finally asked the other party to sit down.
Just be casual, if you are casual then there will be no need to shout anything.
"Can Fang Ling guess the reason why I came this time?"
Zheng Guanyin seems a little naughty, her eyes are smiling like stars.
"If you don't want to guess, please say so!"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Zheng Guanyin’s identity is too sensitive.
It should have a lot to do with Bishamon.
And she is also Emperor Li Shimin’s concubine Zheng.
"Men are so boring."
Zheng Guanyin said with a frown.
Fang Yuan looked at it without saying anything.
"First of all, thank you for not informing the emperor."
Zheng Guanyin became more serious and chuckled.
Fang Yuan frowned, but still didn't speak.
But he already understood that Zheng Guanyin knew what happened that night.
In other words, Zheng Guanyin is really related to Bishamon, otherwise it would be impossible to know about it.
It’s scary, Zheng Guanyin is related to Bishamon, and the emperor imprisoned her, but the emperor didn’t even know?
"Secondly, I want to ask, why is that girl here?"
Zheng Guanyin has become more serious again.
The look in Fang Yuan's eyes changed and became much darker.
"Picked up in the slums of Liaozhou."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
He knew that the girl Zheng Guanyin was talking about was Fang Jingyu.
I just didn't expect that Zheng Guanyin would also know about Fang Jingyu and come to find him personally.
I think Zheng Guanyin came to find him personally not because he did not inform the emperor, but because Fang Jingyu arrived.
It seems that Fang Jingyu's status in Zheng Guanyin's heart is extraordinary, and may not be as simple as a tool he cultivated.
"She...what's her name?"
Zheng Guanyin's voice was trembling.
The originally sickly pale complexion became even paler.
"Fang Jingyu!"
Fang Yuan looked deeply at Zheng Guanyin and said in a deep voice.
"Fang Jingyu, Fang Jingyu... a very nice name."
"Fang Yuan, thank you for adopting her, I owe you a favor, how about giving you some news now?"
Zheng Guanyin murmured.
Slowly he smiled and his demeanor slowly recovered.
"No need."
"Take it back."
Fang Yuan stared at Zheng Guanyin and said in a deep voice.
"No, not anymore."
"I abandoned her before and am not qualified to adopt her again."
Zheng Guanyin shook her head, pain flashed through her eyes.
The demeanor that had just been restored collapsed again, as if he was very sad.
"Why abandon it?"
Fang Yuan frowned deeper.
"I'm just a weak woman, I can't do many things myself."
Zheng Guanyin's mouth was bitter and her eyes were full of sadness.
She is pervertedly white and looks very sad and heartbreaking.
"What does she have to do with you?"
Fang Yuan asked again.
He felt that Zheng Guanyin's feelings for Fang Jingyu were unusual.
"It's just a child I once adopted."
"Let's talk about something else, Fang Ling. You really don't need me to sell you any news?"
"If I use this information well, your position in the emperor's heart will definitely be greatly improved."
Zheng Guanyin laughed at herself.
"What news?"
Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and asked.
Trading with Zheng Guanyin is not a good thing.
He didn't even want Zheng Guanyin to stay in Fang Mansion for an extra quarter of an hour.
With Zheng Guanyin's status, the emperor must have someone keeping an eye on her at all times.
"The Bishamon rebellion."
Zheng Guanyin slowly recovered and chuckled.
"You sell it."
Fang Yuan felt shocked and said in a deep voice.
"As the commander of Chang'an, you may have received news that Bishamon is going to rebel."
"This news is correct, but because of your appearance, Bishamon's rebellion plan has changed."
Zheng Guanyin looked at Fang Yuan and said.
"Because of me?"
Fang Yuan frowned and said in confusion.
"Yes, because of you."
"Because you saw the military advisor in my house that night."
Zheng Guanyin smiled even louder, her eyes looked like stars.
"How did you hide from the emperor's surveillance of you?"
Fang Yuan frowned again and asked in confusion.
"Who knows?"
"Maybe the emperor himself knew about it."
Zheng Guanyin chuckled.
He seems a little mentally disturbed.
"Then your news is not valuable."
Fang Yuan can't see through Zheng Guanyin.
This woman is obviously smiling, but she feels very sad.
Thinking about her situation, I feel even more like that.
"This is for you!"
"I'm leaving, don't tell them we met, otherwise our lives may be in danger."
Zheng Guanyin took out a small piece of paper, pressed it on the table and pushed it towards Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan took it and opened it, there were only two words written on it: Xiao Yu.
At this time, Zheng Guanyin had already stood up and was about to walk out of the study.
"What does this mean?"
Fang Yuan stood up and said in a deep voice.
"Guess."
Zheng Guanyin walked out of the study without looking back.
She was led by Qinggao and walked to the recruitment office in the front yard.
Fang Yuan walked out of the study and looked at Zheng Guanyin's back.
Just at this time, Zheng Jiu, wearing a government uniform, ran over.
"Fang Ling, there is urgent news from the county government."
"Princess Changle is missing. Your Majesty ordered the Jinwu Guards to search the entire city of Chang'an County and Wannian County."
