Chapter 99 The storm is coming
Chapter 99
Qin Huaidao has been matching the ink and printing ink for several consecutive days.
Cheng Chusi and the others were busy building the factory. Of course, Cheng Chusi would not do this, but Cheng Chuliang and the others were busy, and those children from all over the country were helping with the construction.
They all knew very well that this liquor would definitely make a lot of money, so they would be very motivated to do it.
Some of them are eyeing the construction of factories, while others are starting to purchase wine lees. They are packing the wine lees in baskets.
The prince was busy doing experiments in the death row. He found many imperial doctors to go with him. He had not been to court for several consecutive days and was staying in the death row.
After the court in the world, Li Shimin was a little unhappy when he saw that the prince still did not come.
Although he was saying that he had been on leave, as the prince had not come to court for several days, and was still in the death row, Li Shimin felt that the prince probably had something to do.
I'm tired of playing with Turkic soldiers? Can't I still have to play with death row prisoners now?
"Your Majesty, these are memorials to impeach His Highness the Crown Prince, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince is not doing his job properly!" The eunuch took those memorials and put them on Li Shimin's desk.
Li Shimin picked it up and read it. These memorials were written by the important officials arranged by Li Shimin to be by Li Chengqian. The memorials of Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun were even more intense, and what Li Chengqian said was completely useless.
"Well, do you know what Gao Ming is doing in the cell?" Li Shimin asked the person behind him. It was Changsun Chong who was on duty.
"Your Majesty, I don't know, do you need to investigate?" Changsun Chong immediately bowed and asked.
"Well! Forget it!" Li Shimin had no choice but to throw the memorial to the side, not wanting to investigate it anymore. Once it was investigated, he probably had a headache again.
A while ago, Li Chengqian's performance was quite good. The paper mill and printing factory were also concerned about it, and he was also close to Qin Huaidao and the others, which made him feel much more at ease.
But unexpectedly, it was only a few days before, and it started to mess up again.
Li Shimin didn't want to care about him anymore, but the ministers around the prince had to read or criticize their memorials. After all, they were also for the sake of the prince's goodness. To be more important, they were also for the court.
"What did Boping do recently? Or is he staying at the mansion every day?" Li Shimin then asked Changsun Chong.
"I don't know this. Yuchi Baolin and the others are familiar with Qin Huaidao! Otherwise, call them over and ask?" Changsun Chong continued to look at His Majesty and asked.
"No, I guess I'm still working on the printing business. Now the printing factory is speeding up the construction. Yesterday I heard from Yuchi Baolin that those houses have been built and are now doing painting. In the past two days, I will carry the printing machine from Boping Mansion to the printing factory.
The printing matter is probably about to be completed. Boping said before that, at most half a month, this matter will be successful!" Li Shimin still did not follow Changsun Chong's advice.
He didn't want to disturb Qin Huaidao too much. He knew that Qin Huaidao was quiet. Even if it was nothing, he would try his best to stay in the mansion and didn't want to go out at all.
After all, in Li Shimin's opinion, Qin Huaidao is still young and doesn't understand many things.
In the evening, Qin Huaidao sat in the study room for a day, now he came out to get some breath, and it was raining lightly in the sky, which made it much cooler.
"Brother!" Qin Shandao saw Qin Huaidao coming out and immediately walked over. There were two young people behind him, as if they were waiting for him there.
Qin Huaidao knew that it was a student sent by Zhuangzi, so Qin Huaidao gave them a name!
"Have you met the young master!" The two students came to Qin Huaidao and bowed and said.
"Well, are you still used to it? Have you finished your homework?" Qin Huaidao asked with a smile at the two people.
"I'm still used to it. It's much better than before. I still need to work at home!" One of the students said.
His name is Qin Zhizhen. Qin Huaidao gave those students a name of Zhi, and another student was Qin Zhili.
"That's good. In a while, I will build a library for you, which contains a lot of books. In the future, the court will increase the intensity of the imperial examination. I also hope that you can pass the imperial examination. However, it still needs to be done step by step. This year, there may be more encores. Are you prepared?" Qin Huaidao held Qin Shandao's hand and walked towards the garden. He immediately followed a large number of servants and maids.
"I don't know that the students have never participated, but just prepare as much as possible. The dozens of students in the mansion are like this!" Qin Zhizhen said respectfully following Qin Huaidao.
"Well, it's right to be prepared. You teenagers over 15 or 16 years old need to work harder. You are not young and should be sensible! If you can pass the exam, it will be a matter of gloriousness for your family and your mansion!
This year, you mainly focus on the Xiucai Department and the Mingjing Department, the Mingfa Department and the Mingsuan Department are also fine, but you can't do the Mingshu Department. These are people who have an understanding of calligraphy to take the exam! You are still a little more immature!" Qin Huaidao walked forward with his hands behind his back, saying as he walked.
The imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty were very different from those in later generations. Unlike later generations, they needed to take several exams. In the Zhenguan period, they only took the imperial examinations once, and they passed the examination.
Moreover, the subjects for the examination are divided into scholars, Mingjing, Mingfa, Mingshu and Mingshu.
The Jinshi subject only appeared during the Wu Zetian period, and the Jinshi subject also became the subject with the greatest influence in later generations.
However, Wu Zetian is Qin Huaidao's concubine now, no one knows how the imperial examination will change in the future.
"Yes, young master, the student is here this time just to ask for the young master!" Qin Zhizhen bowed and said to Qin Huaidao from behind.
"Say!" Qin Huaidao nodded.
"Students are not interested in subjects such as Mingjing and scholars, but they are very interested in Mingsuan subjects, but there are too few books, and students don't know where to get books!" Qin Zhizhen said with Qin Huaidao.
"So, students just like Mingsuan. Students are still a little talented about this! However, there are too few books in Mingsuan. Students want to find books to read, but they can't find them!" Qin Zhili also bowed and said to Qin Huaidao.
"Oh, I'm interested in Mingsuanji? Well! But you have to know that the court does not attach importance to Mingsuanji. Most of the juren of Mingsuanji went to the Ministry of Works, and the Ministry of Works is the worst among all departments!" Qin Huaidao stopped, turned around, and said with a smile at them.
"Students know, but students really can't remember other subjects. Please punish me!" Qin Zhizhen said with a bow to Qin Huaidao.
"What are you punishing? It's normal. Everyone has something they are good at. In fact, it requires talent to study clearly, and it will be of great use if you learn well. In this way, you two come to my study room in the evening, and I will compete with you in the exam. If you pass, I will teach you in person in the future!" Qin Huaidao said to them with his hands behind his back.
"Ah, yes, thank you young master!" Qin Zhili and Qin Zhizhen were very surprised. If they were allowed to teach the young master, it would be completely different. In the future, they would be the young master's personal students, and they were all told outside that the young master has great talents!
"Well, let's go and have a walk around the garden together. It's just these two days that I've been a little cooler!" Qin Huaidao turned around with a smile and took them to the garden.
After returning from the garden, Qin Huaidao led the two of them to the study and began to give each of them a few questions, roughly the questions for the fifth grade of elementary school, to see if they can answer them.
There were not many questions, and there were ten in total, but they both finished half an hour. What surprised Qin Huaidao was that although it was a little slower, the accuracy was still good, and they basically answered it.
Qin Huaidao asked them to go back. When Qin Huaidao had time, he would go to find them, and at the same time he would also find them a book about Mingsuanke.
Of course, Qin Huaidao didn't plan to go outside, thinking that when the printing factory was ready, he would get a few textbooks and teach them himself!
The next day, the sky cleared and the temperature rose suddenly. Early in the morning, Cheng Chusi came over. He wanted to come over and pull the tools from Qin Huai Dao Mansion over and put them in the printing factory first, and wait for Qin Huai Dao to assemble them.
"Boping, the printing factory has almost prepared. As for the workers, we have also picked 10 people from each mansion and asked them to work there. I guess, at most, our work will be done in five days, and we will wait for you when the time comes!" Cheng Chusi sat there, looking at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"No problem, now I'm ready here too. If the printing factory is ready, we will start assemble!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said to Cheng Chusi.
"Well, that's good, but recently, the King of Wei has been doing things frequently, and many people have written to write letters, hoping to take over the supervision of the Prince's Printing Factory. Moreover, many ministers have written letters saying that the Prince is licentious and unruly!" Cheng Chusi said to Qin Huaidao with some concern.
"What happened again?" Qin Huaidao heard this and didn't know what the prince was doing again, why so many ministers wrote letters.
"The prince has not handled government affairs for almost five days!" Cheng Chusi said to Qin Huaidao in a low voice.
"Five days? What did he go?" Qin Huaidao was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly.
"I went to the death row prisoner, probably because you said last time that alcohol could save lives!" Cheng Chusi said in a low voice.
"Oh, Your Majesty doesn't know?" Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Chusi in confusion and asked.
"I probably don't know that the prince didn't tell His Majesty. Moreover, judging from the situation of going to court this morning, the King of Wei has contacted many people, and what makes me strange is that Hou Junji is also waving the flag for the King of Wei!" Cheng Chusi said in a very low voice.
