Cheng Zhijie has never been afraid of anyone, and he dismisses Cui Ze's so-called righteousness.

As soon as he said this, all the ministers present burst into laughter.

The Di Bao has evolved into the No. [-] newspaper in the Tang Dynasty, and everyone is not stupid, and they can see the potential value of the newspaper at a glance.

After talking for so long, everyone was very tired. After hearing Cheng Zhijie's remarks, they felt a lot lighter for a while.

"His Majesty!"

As soon as Cui Ze wanted to play, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Okay, you two are important ministers of the court, why are you arguing? How decent is it?"

Cui Ze glared at Cheng Zhijie fiercely, and stopped talking.

"Your Majesty, Consort Zhou has arrived outside the palace."

"Announce him for an audience."

"Xuan, Zhou Jinyan sees you!"

After singing three times, everyone looked outside the hall together, only to see Zhou Jinyan striding forward with his head held high.

There were a lot of whispers in the hall immediately.

"My minister, meet your majesty."

Zhou Jinyan saluted.

"Be flat!"

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, he suddenly saw a person jumping out and shouting: "Zhou Jinyan, are you willing to hand over the first newspaper of the Tang Dynasty to the court?"

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, they looked together and found that the person who spoke was Chang Sun Chong.

Having not seen Changsun Chong for a long time, Zhou Jinyan felt a little ephemeral when he saw this idiot again.

It's just that I didn't expect that when we first met, it would be a process of fighting each other again.

Interesting.

Zhou Jinyan turned his head, seeing that Li Shimin had no intention of speaking, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Changsun Chong again.

"Changsun Shaoqing, you said you want me to hand over the newspaper that was just started?"

"That's right," Chang Sun Chong raised his head and said, "Maybe you just want|to make a newspaper, but you may not know the value hidden in the newspaper and what it represents. So I hope you give the newspaper to Chao | Tingdai丨Office."

Zhou Jinyan smiled: "Sun Shaoqing, let me ask you that there is a residence newspaper in the imperial court. Do you look down on the residence newspaper? Or do you think that my number one newspaper in the Tang Dynasty will definitely surpass the residence newspaper?"

The crowd couldn't help laughing.

It was just two people talking, and no one else interrupted at will.

"The mansion newspaper is an official newspaper, and the first newspaper of the Tang Dynasty is a public newspaper. Naturally, there must be one. Please answer my question directly. Are you willing to hand over the first newspaper of the Tang Dynasty to the court?"

"Naturally willing."

Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "If His Majesty wants it, or if you think it is necessary, I will hand it over immediately."

There was an uproar.

No one would have thought that Zhou Jinyan, who was so rebellious before, would say such a thing.

For a moment, they were all stunned.

"Are you serious?"

Chang Sun Chong said in a daze.

"As long as His Majesty has a word, I will immediately hand over the first report of the Tang Dynasty to His Majesty."

Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "If you want to know about my situation, you should be very clear about it."

"To be honest, I'm not interested in politics. I just want to make money. So I tinkered with the Happy Chair and improved the woodblock printing."

"Now that the Xiaoyao chair is given to the second child, I naturally have to find another way. This newspaper is actually an improved version of Di Bao."

Everyone nodded, thoughtful, but they also admired Zhou Jinyan's brain.

Although these are all strange and obscene skills, no one will really look down on Zhou Jinyan because of his status.

"To put it bluntly, my newspaper is to make money. If I don't make money, will I always eat my own woman? I think you are not willing to stand in my position, right?"

"Who wants to eat a mother's meal?"

Cheng Zhijie said: "I'd like to say, Your Majesty didn't ask for this newspaper, and you don't have to give it out. I think this newspaper can make a lot of money."

Zhou Jinyan cupped his hands at him, and continued, "My purpose is that simple. As for what you all think, I have no choice."

"Consort Zhou."

At this moment, a half-baked man stepped forward, "As for the newspaper, do you know why there is only Dibao?"

Zhou Jinyan didn't know him, and didn't want to talk, just shook his head.

"Because as a mouthpiece, newspapers are too important for public opinion. If public opinion cannot be controlled by the court, have you thought about the consequences?"

"As I said, I don't care about politics." Zhou Jinyan shrugged.

"You don't care, but politics does care about you."

Wang Hanwen solemnly said: "The so-called innocence of a man is the crime of a man who is pregnant. When the weight of this newspaper is not something you, a little son-in-law, can bear, it will become a deadly poison!"

Zhou Jinyan frowned and said, "If I run a newspaper, how can it become a deadly poison? If you have something to say, don't stick to words. If you work in a newspaper at your level, you won't even have a chance to work."

"Heh," Wang Hanwen sneered, "Then I'll just say it straight. If the court wants to control the public opinion among the people, it must not go beyond what may affect the existence of public opinion. Do you understand?"

"not understand!"

Zhou Jinyan said lightly: "I think what you said is very problematic."

"what is the problem?"

"The court wants to control the public opinion among the people? Is this to keep the tongue shut? There is a way to prevent the people. The mouth is stronger than Fangchuan. I think you should understand?"

Zhou Jinyan cupped his hands to Li Shimin, and continued: "Your Majesty is a rare and famous monarch in the ages. Could it be that you don't want to listen to the words of the people? Or can you just sit in the high hall and listen to the picky words of you officials? ?”

"Pfft!"

Wang Hanwen knelt down in fright, "Your Majesty, I have no such intentions."

Zhou Jinyan ignored him, let alone everyone's surprised expressions.

He said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, I think it is very necessary to run a newspaper. If it is possible, the mansion newspaper should not only be read by officials and others. It should be a large newspaper integrating the government and the people, and let the common people know about the imperial court from time to time. Ting's dynamics, listening to the voices of the common people, this is much more pleasing to the ears than the few memorials presented."

"As for the newspapers that everyone is worried about may mislead the people and guide public opinion, I think it is completely unnecessary."

Zhou Jinyan raised his hand, "I can swear to you, there must be a basis for any news about the court. I will not write any news that will have an extremely bad influence on the court."

"The first newspaper of the Tang Dynasty, I have already thought about it before. It will be a newspaper for everyone in the Tang Dynasty, and it will be a newspaper that everyone likes to read. Between courts, a tool for expressing wishes."

Zhou Jinyan talked eloquently, with smooth logic and clear conditioning. The entire hall was filled with his voice, and everyone listened slowly.

There was no sound at all.

"Zhou Jinyan, what you said is very good, but I think it may be better to hand over the newspaper to the imperial court."

"I agree with you, if His Majesty needs it."

Zhou Jinyan glanced at Chang Sun Chong, "But I think if the newspaper is handed over to the government, the hearts of the people at the bottom will not be able to be conveyed to the public after a long time."

"What do you mean?" Wang Hanwen said angrily, "Are you underestimating me?"

Zhou Jinyan yawned, "After talking for a long time, you still don't seem to understand what I mean, how about this, I am willing to hand over the newspaper, who will pick it up? Who can do it well?"

"As long as you hand it over, someone will naturally do it, and it will definitely be better than you." Changsun Wuji, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said lightly.

"it is good!"

Zhou Jin said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to hand over the No. [-] newspaper of the Tang Dynasty. You send someone to contact|contact me. I will give him the template of the newspaper."

Before Li Shimin could speak, Changsun Chong said again: "There are also movable type printing and small print models."

Zhou Jinyan blinked, "This one is fine too. If you want to buy it, it's [-] guan, and I'll give it to you from my seven printing shops. It doesn't matter if you do the newspaper business or not, I just want to make money."

"Why don't you go grab it?" Chang Sun Chong stared and said, "Dare to ask for one hundred thousand guan!"

"You beg for newspapers, I beg for money, exchange at equal value, why not?"

Zhou Jinyan said with a half-smile: "Why, want to prostitute for nothing? I spend so much time and energy, but I get nothing, and don't compensate me at all. Do you think it's possible?"

"You are making a contribution to Datang, why is that impossible?"

Chang Sun Chong said seriously: "If you hand over this kind of thing, the world praises you for thinking about the court. If you ask for money, it will change the nature."

"Please," Zhou Jinyan said lazily, "I'm not interested in politics at the moment. I don't need others to praise me. I don't live in the eyes of others like you."

"I only want money now. By the way, since you have such lofty ideals, why don't you pay the 70 yuan to your eldest grandson's family. I think you have done this, and the people of the Tang Dynasty will praise you day and night."

Chang Sun Chong originally wanted Zhou Jinyan to give the newspaper for free, but he didn't expect to include himself in it, and he was a little confused for a while.

"My loves, do you have anything else to say?" Li Shimin said suddenly.

Yu Chigong said: "Since the eldest grandson's family is willing to take this matter over, one is asking for money and the other is asking for reward, I think this matter should be left as it is, and there is no need for us to fight any further."

"My minister seconded the proposal." Du Ruhui said immediately.

"I agree too."

"Seconded......"

Li Shimin couldn't help looking at Changsun Wuji, who frowned, cupped his hands and said, "Our Changsun's family can't afford so much money."

"I really don't know what you are thinking?"

Zhou Jinyan raised his voice and said, "Is there any difference between newspapers and books? The news that newspapers can convey can also be conveyed by books. If you think like this, why don't you have a burning book, pit, and Confucianism?"

"This kid really dares to say it."

Everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at several Confucian masters in the imperial court, such as Kong Yingda and Li Baiyao.

But they found that their faces were pale, and there was no facial expression at all.

"It's just a small newspaper, purely for entertainment, and even has many unexpected effects, which are extremely beneficial to the court. I said, why do you only see the disadvantages? Are you really so unconfident in me, Datang? Or When my Tang Dynasty reaches the sunset, do I need to cover up everywhere?"

The crowd was silent.

Such words are sensitive enough that everyone looks at Zhou Jinyan with strange eyes.

But the above did not speak, and they did not dare to make unreasonable comments.

Chang Sun Chong was even more like looking at a monster, he thought Zhou Jinyan was really ignorant and fearless, he dared to say anything.

To put it bluntly, this newspaper is afraid of causing wrong public opinion guidance to the common people, which is not good for the court.

But everyone is unwilling to say it clearly, just a reminder, after all, what they have said is dissatisfaction and worry about the current court.

The prosperous empire still needs to cover up the people's tongue?

"Cough cough,"

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Zhou Jinyan suddenly raised his voice and said: "Ministers, in about twenty days, the competition between me and the Wang family will begin, and the place is Qujiang Pond. discussion."

"The Wang family thinks that the sky is round and the earth is round, but I think that the sky is not round and the earth is not square. The bet is on Qujiang Pond and all the shops of the Wang family in Quchifang, as well as the three houses of the Wang family inside."

"If you are interested, you can go and see it when the time comes. This is a moment when I will definitely win and witness a miracle. Don't miss it."

In the entire hall, only Zhou Jinyan was speaking, and everyone was listening.

Everyone did not expect that he would advertise this matter in the court.

I was stunned for a moment.

Seeing that everyone still had nothing to say, Zhou Jinyan scratched his head, and said with a dry smile, "I don't know much about the rules in the court, and if I am rude, please forgive me. By the way, do you still want this No. [-] newspaper in the Tang Dynasty?"

Zhou Jinyan looked at Chang Sun Chong.

Chang Sun Chong gritted his teeth with hatred, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only pretend he couldn't hear.

"It's a pity, I'm still going to hand over the newspaper to the court. It seems that none of you have any intention of asking for it."

Zhou Jinyan said: "But having said that, if this newspaper is run by someone like Di Bao, I'm afraid it won't make a hundred dollars back."
