The First Family of Tang Dynasty

On the side, Wu Meiniang was sitting next to the desk docilely and softly, researching ink for the royal jewel in the palm.

Looking at the picturesque, but clever and clever Princess, almost no one dislikes this kind-hearted Princess.

And Wu Meiniang paid more attention to the princess. After all, this lovely and kind little princess was almost fattened by Cheng Saburo...

Hmm... when she thought of this, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but lowered her head and glanced at herself, her slim figure that was gradually becoming upright.

Of course, I also like the delicacies he sent. Always be able to evoke their own gluttons.

I still remember the days before, when the companions around me commented that not only did he grow taller, but he also became more mellow.

But it made Wu Meiniang nervous for a long time, for fear that if Cheng Sange liked thin women, what should I do?

However, she didn't feel uneasy for long. Last time, because of Wang Wei's fat man, Cheng Sange entered the palace for this reason.

After seeing myself, the still gentle and gentle gaze, and the sunny smiling face.

The important thing is that this stupid piece of wood not only didn't say that she was fat, but also offered herself new delicacies, which made Wu Meiniang finally secretly relieved.

An idiot like Cheng Sange who thinks and says whatever he thinks, if he can't see this girl, he will definitely say it directly.

Oops, why am I so concerned about the idea of ​​that stupid wood? It's not that this girl can't get married...

"Sister Wu, your face is so red..." A crisp and sweet voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Wu Meiniang was stunned for a while before she noticed that the Jinyang princess Li Mingda in front of her stared at her dark black eyes and looked at herself curiously.

Wu Meiniang also noticed that Empress Changsun's gaze shifted away. Now she became more calm and unable to, she could only raise her hand to cover her pretty face.

"His Royal Highness, you can't read it wrong... Well, it should be hot, it's hot..."

Fortunately, at this time, I heard the eunuch's report from outside, saying that His Royal Highness Wu came to see the mother's queen.

The Empress Changsun, whose eyes seemed to be able to perceive people's hearts, looked away, letting Wu Meiniang breathe a sigh of relief.

But in my heart, I couldn't help but gritted my teeth bitterly, and almost got embarrassed by the clumsy third brother of Cheng Cheng.

#####

I saw Li Ke, His Royal Highness King Wu, who looked so elegant in his manners, approached on foot, and then bowed respectfully to Empress Changsun.

"Children see the queen mother..."

"I have seen sister Sizi."

"Sizi has seen the third brother." Li Mingda put aside the pen and bowed to Li Ke obediently.

Empress Changsun smiled gently, beckoned Li Ke to sit next to him, and personally served him a bowl of iced lotus soup.

"Okay Saburo, don't have to be polite, come and sit down... There happens to be a soup to cool off the heat here, drink it quickly."

"Thank you, empress, for coming here today, one is to greet the empress, but for the second, there is one thing that I want to discuss after looking for the mother."

After Li Ke took it, he took a sip, and said with both hands the bamboo tube containing the paper pattern.

"This is..." Empress Changsun glanced at the bamboo tube in a daze. "Does Saburo have any good things to offer to your father?"

Sitting in front of the case obediently, Li Mingda, who had just brought up the pen, also looked over here curiously.

The corner of Li Ke's eyes swept past the doctor girl who had an unclear relationship with Brother Chu Bi, who was also a close-knit maid. Come on, just be there. Anyway, this is for Brother Chu Bi to show his merits.

"Mother Queen, the things here are not famous paintings and calligraphy, but paper samples trial-produced by Cheng Chubi..."

"Brother Cheng San did it?" Before the confused Empress Changsun spoke, Li Mingda's eyes lit up and grabbed the conversation.

"Yes, it is Cheng Saburo's handwriting." Li Ke explained the sentence towards the lovely and well-behaved girl and Yan Yueshen.

Wu Meiniang's eyes suddenly brightened, and her eyes were lowered again after she turned, but her gaze had been fixed on the bamboo tube in the hands of Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun raised her eyebrows lightly, and pulled out the paper pattern that was not soaked in ink from the bamboo tube. Then spread out in front of you.

"This paper, huh?..." After the Empress Changsun touched the paper pattern, her face changed slightly, waiting to see the poems and writings copied on the paper.

The point is that although the handwriting in these ink books is slightly stained in some places, they can only be regarded as minor flaws.

Seeing Empress Changsun's increasingly suspicious gaze and her increasingly solemn expression, Li Ke explained in a low voice.

"This is just the first batch of paper samples that Brother Chu Bi asked Cheng's Paper Workshop to try out. Brother Chu Bi said that there is still room for improvement..."

"This paper...what's the cost?" Empress Changsun took a deep breath, and asked with a somewhat cautious tone.

"According to Brother Chubi, the price of paper is almost the same as that of paper money."

"...Only eight or nine dollars?" Empress Changsun's solemn expression changed abruptly, and her voice suddenly rose by an octave.

The eldest grandson empress who is also very good at emotional control also realized that she was a little gaffe.

Settling down, he smiled sweetly at Li Mingda. "Good boy, mother wants to talk to your third brother about business..."

The Princess Jinyang, who is a wise and blue heart~www.ltnovel.com~ nodded sensibly, nodded and stood up and said.

"Mother, third brother, Xiao Sizi will go out to play first, and come back to practice calligraphy later, okay?"

"Go, Meiniang, stay with Jinyang..." Empress Changsun hugged this girl who she really didn't know how to praise, and then she told Wu Meiniang.

"Good maid, please come with your servant..."

Although Wu Meiniang regretted that she couldn't continue listening, the news that Li Ke and Empress Changsun had just received was shocking enough.

In those days when she copied books, she naturally inquired about the price of paper.

It is clear that there are several types of paper that can be written on the market today, and the price of each is ridiculously expensive.

Like the best paper in Xuanzhou tribute paper, I am afraid that without a hundred dollars, I can't buy a ten meter at all.

A little bit later, you won't think it is expensive no matter how you ask for seventy or eighty dollars.

The price of the most Xuanzhou tribute paper is also between 60 and 70 yuan.

And that hard yellow paper, the last hard yellow paper, cost about thirty yuan per zhang.

Only those papers that cannot be written, the price will fluctuate between ten to seven cents. After all, the usage is different.

Empress Changsun suppressed her excitement and asked after she calmed down a little bit.

"He, why would he think about making paper again?"

Li Ke touched his face, glanced at Li Mingda who was curiously looking at the pattern, and Wu Meiniang whose eyes were shining brightly.

"That... Brother Chu Bi feels that he is too poor."

"???"
