Emperor Hongzhi stared at Yan Chengjin: "Many of the books in the cabinet and Hanyuan collections are important classics. How can you easily hand them over to booksellers? Don't mess around."

The prosperity of the Ming Dynasty culture was due to the literacy rate of the people.

"This move...is related to Cheng Minzheng?" Emperor Hongzhi asked again.

"Built in the name of Cheng Minzheng."

Emperor Hongzhi, Li Dongyang and others understood as soon as they heard it.

"This is not only for Cheng Minzheng, but also for scholars all over the world.

Next year is the year of the provincial examination. The poor scholars are short of money and can buy very few books. If they can establish a library in the two capitals and thirteen provinces to serve scholars all over the world, they will definitely gain more pillars of the court."

Yan Chengjin knew very well that Emperor Hongzhi was concerned about the poor, and the second was talent.

"Your Majesty, there are too many books in the palace. If the transportation is lost, I think it is not possible." Liu Jian said.

Cabinet Grand Secretary Liu Jian and Minister of Rites Fu Han opposed it. If no one supports it, this matter will be terrible.

Yan Chengjin secretly looked at Li Dongyang and whispered: "Teacher, three are missing one."

Li Dongyang glanced at the boy with anger. What does Sanque and One mean? But he also knew that the boy asked him for help.

"Your Majesty, the tribute student who went to the Imperial College to study will not only not charge cash for food, accommodation, but also can enjoy the salary of the court, with five taels of silver per month. In comparison, scholars who have not entered the Imperial College cannot even afford books. If Your Majesty can build a new library in the thirteen provinces of the two capitals and thirteen provinces..."

His father is from a military family. Li Dongyang lived in poverty since childhood, so studying was extremely difficult.

I have a deep understanding of this.

Emperor Hongzhi thought carefully: "Since I am asking for the scholars in the world, I have approved it, but the important classics in the palace should not be leaked, and these classics are allowed to be copied by Hanlin, so the original books should not be taken out of the palace."

When will this be copied? I am afraid that it will not be established next year.

I threw a pot to Hanlin for no reason, but the group of livestock didn't even hit him to death...

Yan Chengjin said: "Your Majesty, you have too many books. Why not let the Sili Supervisor stereotype the printing?"

There were roughly three parts of the publishing house in the Ming Dynasty. The first was the economic factory under the jurisdiction of the Silijian, which was extremely large in scale.

The second is the palace of the vassal kings. Most of the vassal kings have their own printing workshops, which use very exquisite materials and have many books.

The third is the bookstore, which is folk printing like Lao Wang's bookstore.

The fourth is private book engraving, similar to the printing of the vassal kings. Out of a book collection hobby, well, yes, the Ming Dynasty already had a way of publishing power for love.

"In this case, it will be a waste again! Your Majesty cannot agree easily." Fu Han, the Minister of Rites, said.

Yan Chengjin lowered his head slightly.

Fu Han was a slightly famous minister in the mid-Ming Dynasty. Some historical materials infer that he was the one behind the Cheng Minzheng fraud case.

Fu Han was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Cheng Minzheng was the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites. The two were the candidates for the Minister of Rites. Historical materials inferred that Hua Chang exposed Cheng Minzheng because he was instructed by Fu Han.

In fact, he also became the Minister of Rites.

"Fu Han and Tu Fei are good friends. Tu Fei left because of my grand plan during the revelation period, and Fu Han's land in Liangxiang was also lost because of my impeachment. So the conclusion is that Fu Han wants to murder his official!" Yan Chengjin deduced it in his heart.

Quiet in the hall.

Yan Chengjin said: "Since it is newly built in Liangxiang, it is easy to get out of Liangxiang."

Speaking of Liangxiang, Emperor Hongzhi thought of the refugees again and asked, "What's wrong with Liangxiang?"

"The Liang Township is still poor."

This boy always said that Liangxiang is poor, but there is always money. Emperor Hongzhi was a little suspicious and nodded: "Si Lijian will issue it."

"Thank you for your grace!"

This should be the first public library in the Ming Dynasty?

The construction of such a library in the thirteen provinces of the two capitals and thirteen provinces will not change the fate of many people.

Five hundred years later, when future generations mentioned Cheng Minzheng again, they would not only talk about the fraud case of the imperial examination.

...

Liangxiang,

Cheng Minzheng didn't know about the capital, so Yan Chengjin broke off contact with him and hadn't sent anyone for a long time.

He accepted three more disciples.

The straw hut became a school, and the refugees made him a book case, and taught him a thousand-character text during the day, and went to tell the story in the evening.

It is very popular in Liangxiang, and soon even the people of Liangxiang knew that there was a storyteller named Cheng Qingshan in the grass hut area, who spoke very well.

Even Wang Busui knew about it, so he followed the refugees in the workshop to take a look.

"Isn't this Cheng Minzheng?"

Wang Busui almost shouted out, why did he look like a down-and-out look...

At night, the lanterns of Liangxiang were slightly yellow in the lanterns.

The yamen announced that the baby would go to the private school in the county tomorrow. Liang Zhong was so happy that he moved quickly: "My father made two books for you and went to the private school tomorrow."

"Big Father, I don't want to go to school."

"What nonsense!" Liang Zhong slapped Liang Xiaoer on the butt.

With a wow, Liang Xiaoer cried: "I want to talk to Mr. Cheng, Mr. Cheng can tell stories."

"Can you make a promising future? Can Qingshan have a good teacher in a private school? That private school was run by the gentry in the county, and the best husband in the county was hired." Liang Zhong said at him.

Liang Xiaoyi was a little timid: "Big Father, I don't want to go to school either."

Liang Zhong was about to beat these two kids, but someone shouted outside: "Old Liang, make up one for my kid, and I will pay you a salary tomorrow."

"good!"

Liang Zhong brought two wives to weave book baskets. Many children in the straw hut area had to go to the school. They rushed to make it overnight and only a few could weave it.

Early the next morning, the sky was still dark and smoke was lit in the straw hut.

Liang Zhong gave the villagers a book basket, and in one night he made twelve ones. When he got home, his eldest daughter-in-law prepared the sesame cakes.

"Have you run to Qingshan again?" Liang Zhong did not see two grandsons.

The eldest daughter-in-law said, "Dad, let them do it. Even if you go to a private school, you won't be able to get a good fortune."

Liang Zhong sighed and shook his head.

It took a long time since I received Yan Chengjin's letter. When I opened the letter, Cheng Minzheng was filled with tears in his eyes.

"There are actually five copper plates?"

Cheng Minzheng carefully put five copper plates into his pocket, went to the streets tomorrow, and bought two meat buns to improve the food.

Let’s look at the content in the letter.

"A nephew wants to build a library in my name for his readers to borrow?"

Cheng Minzheng widened his eyes. This time Yan Chengjin was not as proud as gold.

More than two hundred words were written.

Cheng Minzheng couldn't figure it out, so he replied to Yan Chengjin: Is it possible to build a library for everyone in the world to borrow and cleanse my reputation?

On the horse-drawn monument in front of the Meridian Gate,

"Why do you always like to mess around with Liangxiang?" Li Dongyang asked angrily.

Liangxiang is a righteous bird of the Ming Dynasty. In the future, even Franji people will travel across the ocean to deliver silver. Yan Chengjin said respectfully: "Because the officials love this land deeply."

"Speak human words!"

"There are many refugees in the good town. This move not only benefits the scholars in the capital, but also the children of refugees can receive His Majesty's holy grace."

The development and prosperity of the Ming Dynasty culture lies in the fact that the people's literacy rate is higher than that of other dynasties.

Establishing a library in the two capitals and thirteen provinces will make the Ming culture prosperous and more prosperous.

Fu Han smiled and said, "In the palace, I am also considering the court, and Lord Yan also serves the court, so I hope I don't take it to my heart."

If you don't say this, maybe this matter has passed.

After saying this, Yan Chengjin became cautious.

"Fu Han is not afraid of me, but his identity as a gold medal censor of the Censorate. His impeachment rate is 100%. He slapped the court and gave him another candy. Who do you think I, Yan Chengjin, are you? Your son?" After a moment, Yan Chengjin thought a lot.
