Chapter 647 Border Conflict

The discussions of several people quickly attracted the attention of others. At first, these people wanted to make those people quieter, but after hearing the topic they were discussing clearly, they all curiously turned over the book they were in their hands, and then the entire library was in chaos.

"Oh my God, my book "The Analects of Confucius" actually costs only five cents. How is this possible!"

"What's the matter? My Thousand Characters Text only costs two cents."

"My luck is not good. "Shuowen Jiezi" actually costs 400 texts!"

"Four hundred essays are already the price of conscience. If you go out to see the "Shuowen Jiezi" outside, I will have as much as I want less than fifteen stans."

This person is right. The whole book "Shuowen Jiezi" originally contained more than 10,000 words. With the continuous expansion over the years, the number of words has increased to nearly 15,000. If the explanation and explanation of each word are added, the binding is almost one foot high, and the price of 400 words is not expensive.

After hearing the complaints from the people around him, the man did not refute it, but just smiled embarrassedly, and explained: "It's true that I am wrong with this matter. The price of 400 essays is indeed the price of conscience, but it is more visible than other books."

The guy who wants to have as much as he wants and smiled and said, "Hehe, just be fine if you know."

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore. Since the books here are so cheap, I'm embarrassed to read them here for nothing. Why buy a few books and take them home to read them."

"Yes, yes, we have to hurry up, otherwise we won't have to buy it in a while."

The two muttered, and soon found that such a debate was meaningless. It would be better to buy books quickly than to have the skills, otherwise God will know if there is still inventory after a while.

In this way, Wangfu Library became famous again within a few days after its opening. The ultra-low price attracted all the readers who could not afford to buy books because of their high prices, and almost squeezed out the door of the library.

On the other side, the major families and gentry were in a bleak state.

Li Muyun's killer move was really a big blow to them. Seeing that his library gathered the hearts of a large number of scholars in a short period of time, there was no solution.

Compared with the power, people are backed by the Supreme Emperor and supported by the emperor, so it is impossible to use official power to suppress it; and using underground forces is contrary to the glorious image of the aristocratic family that has been used to stay in the eyes of the world.

Besides, Li Muyun's rascal character, using underground forces will only make him even more crazy, so unless it is absolutely impossible, no one wants to break the rules and fight a madman to the death.

Some people from aristocratic families also proposed to compare their financial resources and pay for the purchase of books from the Wangfu Library, and they received as much as they paid, but soon this bad idea was rejected.

As long as you are a person in Chang'an City, you know that King Xiaoyao has always done business at a loss. Although the price of the book is very cheap, he obviously still makes a profit, and collecting his books will only help him.

Some people also suggest that it is better to reduce prices and fight price wars together, but this idea seems to be more bad than the one who received the book. You must know that the inheritance of knowledge is the foundation of the aristocratic family. If the price is reduced to the same as Li Muyun, or even lower than him, wouldn’t it be a self-destruction of the city wall, and in the end it would be a bargain for those poor guys.

I have to say that Li Muyun's move this time was too ruthless, and he completely caught several major families off guard.

At first, they realized that something was wrong with the printing of live printing, so they jointly elected the two heads of the Zheng and Lu families to discuss the plan with Li Muyun.

But unexpectedly, Li Muyun, a dilapidated house that was not taken seriously by the aristocratic family, did not buy the account of Zheng Shanguo and Lu Zushang. Not only did he not buy it, he also slapped them loudly in the face with his backhand.

The result of the negotiations at Juxian Pavilion surprised everyone. No one expected that the reputation of the aristocratic family could not suppress Li Muyun, a relative. When they realized that the relative was just a second-hand man, they had already become a big shot. It was impossible to change the way to build a relationship with him.

Besides, the heads of the Zheng and Lu families suffered such great "wrongfulness" from Li Muyun, and had long regarded him as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. There was no reason for the relationship between the two parties to ease. Considering their relationship, the other families could only give up pulling the cage and change to targeted countermeasures.

However, Li Muyun's actions once again exceeded their estimates. This guy actually took a direct blow to the bottom of the pot and hit them hard with a heavy blow, leaving them no chance to take action first.

Just when Li Muyun was about to kill the master's master by random punches, the news from Jiannandao made the family see the turning point. For a moment, the memorials impeached Li Muyun were almost filled with Li Shimin's tables, and even just impeached the memorials of his intention to rebel within one day, the eunuch Lao Long personally directed the burning of three major carts.

Prince Xiaoyao, who was enjoying his life, was summoned into the palace by His Majesty Li Er and stood on the hall of the morning court.

"Brother, you called me here early in the morning. What's the matter?" Li Muyun came to the hall as if he had not woken up. After seeing the ceremony, he asked in a daze. Before Li Shimin could speak, someone jumped out from below and pointed at his nose and shouted: "Dare you aware of your crime?"

"What is the crime? Is it illegal to sleep?" Li Muyun squinted at the people who came out and said disdainfully. A small fourth-rank censor could not even catch his eye.

"King Xiaoyao, don't talk about him. The last time Your Majesty sent you to quell the rebellion in Jiannandao, you let the thief go, and then spoke cleverly and deceived the emperor and escaped. Now that the king rebelled again, what else do you have to say?"

"That's right, you are clearly with the thief's accomplice. Now that things are exposed, what else do you have to say?"

"Li Muyun, confess your crime quickly. Perhaps Your Majesty will give you a good performance and give you a complete body. If you continue to be stubborn, you will be punished by the stern.

As Li Muyun retorted, countless people suddenly surged out of the hall, and their mouths flew everywhere, as if they wanted to drown him in the hall with their saliva.

The people who had been swept through Li Muyun's cold eyes were still indifferent, and his heart was still beating. He had a cold look at the crowd. He grabbed a blank and said, "What are you talking about? Whoever rebelled or whoever rebelled? Should I kill yours or snatch your women? Come on, who will tell me."

When Zheng Shanguo saw Li Muyun speak, he strode out, and the rest of the people stopped. He was the only one in the quiet hall and said, "Li Muyun, don't be arrogant. Don't think that as the adopted son of the Supreme Emperor, you can do whatever you want. You need to know that the prince breaks the law and is also guilty of the common people."

Li Muyun obviously had no good attitude towards Zheng Shanguo, and he curled his lips indifferently and said, "Oh, isn't this the head of the Zheng family? I can't tell that not only has good ability to threaten people, but also has the ability to put shit pots on others. "

Zheng Shanguo's old face turned red suddenly. As the saying goes, "Don't slap people in the face, and curse people without revealing their shortcomings." Li Muyun's "threatening ability" reminded him of the last negotiation at Juxian Pavilion. That time his old face was beaten and "slap". This time he was brought out in public. Looking at the joking eyes of the people around him that could not be concealed, the old man was almost angry and congested.

After a long silence, the old man said panting: "Li Muyun, now that the Monseron of Jiannandao has rebelled again, do you have any explanation?"

"Explanation? What to explain?" Li Muyun asked with a slutty look on his face: "He is not my son, how can I know what he has done!"

"King Xiaoyao, the last time you recommended Mengshelong sent troops to Linyi, what explanation do you want to explain this matter?" Fang Xuanling couldn't stand them so much, and was afraid that Li Muyun would say something inappropriate again, so he reminded him next to him.

Speaking of Linyi, Li Muyun was stunned for a moment, and soon remembered that he seemed to have instructed Mengshelong when he left Jiannan Road to give him the opportunity to go to Linyi to take a look, and it would be best to bring back the rice seed that could be recycled three times a year.

Originally, Li Muyun thought that the guy had done this matter long ago, but unexpectedly, he delayed it for more than half a year, and the weather had already started to get colder before he started to move.

Seeing that Li Muyun didn't speak, Zheng Shanguo thought he was trying to get out of the way, and sneered and said, "Li Muyun, please explain why the Monsellon rebelled."

Although Li Muyun couldn't admire the old house, he was a celebrity around Li Er and he dared not offend him.

But he didn't have such a good temper for Zheng Shanguo, who had no good feelings for him, rolled his eyes and said to him, "Old Man Zheng, have you heard clearly that Lord Fang said that Mengshelong was just sending troops to Linyi? What a big deal? Isn't it just a simple border conflict? It's even a rebellion. Your head was pinched by Shuntian Gate or what?"

"You..." Zheng Shanguo didn't expect that the matter could be explained like this. In his opinion, sending troops privately is a serious crime, or a rebellion.

Li Shimin sat on top and looked at Li Muyun fighting the heroes alone below. At this time, he felt that it was almost done. He cleared his throat and said, "Li Muyun, since you said it was a simple border conflict, what do you think should be dealt with?"

Li Muyun turned around and was completely disheveled. He said to Li Er respectfully: "Brother, I have come into contact with him several times. He has a straight temper and has never read a book. He can't even write his own name. This time, the people of Linyi angered him, so this happens. Therefore, according to what I see, I will not scold you."

"I will raise an army without authorization to attack neighboring countries, and I will only scold you?" Li Er glared at Li Muyun.

"Then, then I'll get some more salary?" Li Muyun asked tentatively, but soon seemed to think of something again, and suddenly said to Li Er: "Oh, by the way, when the emperor issued an order to reprimand, don't forget to instruct that boy to bring back some rice seeds from Linyi Kingdom. I heard that the rice in Linyi can grow for three seasons a year, just like the weeds here..."
