Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

Chapter 100 The Invisible Battlefield

"It's easy to send out the wine and salt."

Li Yi'an knew that it was difficult to keep these two things, even if it was paper and printing, the enemy might get it in the end, but there was no need to worry about these, since Li Shimin was there anyway.

After sending them off, seeing that it was getting late, Li Yi'an had just returned to the yard when Li Junxian knocked on the door just in time.

"Sir, the Chang'an Daily is very effective. It is said that after the [-] copies were distributed today, people kept asking us if there are any more and how many there will be tomorrow."

Li Junxian continued: "Your Majesty asked me to ask Mr., can you print it tomorrow?"

"An extra [-] copies will be printed tomorrow, so you can find a few more people to come and get the newspaper."

Li Yi'an nodded and said, "By the way, there is one more thing. Regarding the salt and wine, I will make some small adjustments."

He continued to briefly talk about Cheng Yaojin and the two of them.

"I see!"

Li Junxian nodded.

Soon the next morning, Li Junxian brought people over again and removed all the more than 2 newspapers.

"Newspapers are here again!"

When the people of Chang'an Dongxi and Xishi saw the people under Li Junxian's command appear, they knew that they could get another free newspaper, and they all surrounded them at the same time.

"Today's content is the issue of drought."

"The newspaper said that the drought in Hebei is basically under control, and the drought in Shandong is not a big problem. The imperial court has already shipped a large amount of grain to Shandong."

"Jinyang Dilong turned around, and the imperial court also compensated all the people affected by the disaster. The imperial court will bear all the losses. Your majesty is benevolent and righteous!"

"Your Majesty is truly benevolent and righteous. There were rumors that His Majesty was not in the right position and was not benevolent or righteous. In my opinion, it is all false."

……

Those people who got the newspaper were all talking about it.

Li Yifu, Gao Zhizhou and others gathered together again, a group of humble scholars were watching Chang'an Daily, and then let out a sigh.

They had just read the news about the drought, and their eyes fell on another board, which printed questions about Chang'an Bookstore.

"Your Majesty set up Chang'an Bookstore to print books in the name of the imperial court, for the sake of us humble scholars."

Li Yifu held the newspaper and said excitedly: "We want to buy a book now, and the ordinary ones cost several hundred dollars. The newspaper said that the most expensive book from Chang'an Bookstore will not exceed twenty dollars. This is really true. For us!"

Gao Zhizhou agreed and said: "Brother Yifu is right. The imperial court's move should be for the imperial examination in autumn and prepare for us scholars."

"We should work hard to study and obtain fame. We must not disappoint the court, and we must not let His Majesty's manpower, material resources, and financial resources for printing books be wasted."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately got the approval of others.

"The aristocratic family is too deceitful. To get a recommendation spot, I must help them copy books for free for three years. Now that the imperial examination system is in place, that is our chance."

"You have done well in the past three years, but I need five years."

"No matter what, we have to support the imperial examination and work hard to pass the imperial examination."

The determination of the poor people became more firm, and they all expressed their response to the court's approach.

"Look here, His Majesty really wants to fight the family to the end."

A humble man flipped through the Chang'an Daily, and on the back was the privacy of those aristocratic families. It was as explosive as yesterday, and the privacy of the Lu family and the Cui family was enough for Li Yian to prepare for a month.

"The family is also rebelling against His Majesty."

At this moment, a poor man came back from the crowd, holding a newspaper in his hand, and continued: "The number of Chang'an Daily printed and distributed today is several times that of yesterday, which shows His Majesty's determination, but the aristocratic family, Started to spread the news that His Majesty's position is not right, leading to heaven's punishment."

"The news can definitely come from the Cui family. They are focusing on questioning His Majesty's murder of his brother and prisoner of his father."

Everyone quieted down at the same time. Some things were not that they didn't want to discuss, but that they couldn't discuss at will.

Almost at the same time, Lu Yulin and Cui Mao also got a newspaper, and they got together to continue their discussions.

"If it weren't for the Chang'an Daily, we wouldn't know that Li Erlang is secretly controlling so many things about us."

Looking at the scandal of their two families, Lu Yulin felt chills down his spine. There was no privacy at all. The most important thing was that what was written above was all true.

"Although the imperial court is not as powerful as the seven of us, it has power and it is normal to be able to do so. However, we have been standing for hundreds of years, and these scandals cannot defeat us."

Cui Mao said solemnly: "It is said that there are more than ten thousand copies of newspapers printed by the imperial court this time, which should have touched Li Erlang's root cause. Even if they can print newspapers again, tomorrow may be the last day."

"As long as tomorrow is over, all speeches will be dominated by us."

He continued: "At that time, even if Li Erlang comes to beg for mercy, I will not forgive him lightly."

Lu Yulin laughed and said, "I'm afraid that those words have spread too much, and he hasn't had the chance to beg for mercy yet."

The spread of these remarks in Chang'an cannot be controlled, and it will easily cause panic among the people, and some people may overthrow Li Shimin.

The change of dynasty often starts with various rumors.

As for the scandal of the family, they don't care about it. The most convenient way to eliminate a speech is to use time to downplay it. They have plenty of time and are not afraid of scolding from outsiders.

They dared to scold too fiercely, and Lu Yulin and the others had plenty of ways to make them regret and shut up.

Besides, which family has no dirty deeds behind it?

In the following events, they and the court continued this invisible struggle.

Soon another day passed, and it was the third day of the newspaper's release.

"Brother Lu, the situation is not good."

Cui Mao frowned and said, "Why did they print and distribute tens of thousands more newspapers on the third day than on the second day? Our people outside saw that the imperial court arranged for [-] people to distribute newspapers outside. They all hold a thousand copies, don't they have no money?"

When things developed to this point, they were different from what they thought.

"Where did Li Erlang get the money to make so much paper and various engravings?"

Lu Yulin also couldn't figure it out, and quickly said coldly: "It must be Li Erlang's battle of trapped beasts. I don't believe it. They can still print it tomorrow."

However, the fourth day of the newspaper's release came in the blink of an eye.

This time, the number of free newspapers distributed by the imperial court has not decreased, but has increased to more than [-] copies. It contains not only the scandals of the two of them, but also various government orders that the imperial court can publish to the outside world.

Of course, the scandal between the two of them is still the most important part.

"Impossible, how can there be so much money in the imperial treasury?"

When Lu Yulin got the latest news, he almost went crazy, which was beyond their prediction.

There are more and more newspapers every day, even if it is their aristocratic family, it will be too much for several days in a row.
