Li Shimin is not an idiot, if he engages in such a ostentation today, something unexpected must happen! !

And the next moment.

The worries of Pei Ji and others came true.

Li Shimin, who was on top of the giant's head, waved his hand, and the majestic voice resounded again.

"Of course! They were in the wrong position after all."

"I am the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty, and I am ordered by heaven! How could he and other caring people be able to resist, come, fetch books, sell books!"

"Today and even in the future, anyone who buys books in the Imperial City will be able to buy books at half the price of the market. I want Chang'an City, and even the entire Tang Dynasty, to have books to read!!"

Selling....books? !

boom! !

As soon as this word comes out.

Like thunder falling into the mortal world, thunder bursts sounded.

stunned!

Shock!

confused!

Can't believe it! !

Not only the officials of the aristocratic family were stunned, but even the common people were stunned.

Book? !

Where did the book come from? !

There are books in the imperial city? !

At first, the common people thought that if His Majesty personally talked about the imperial examination, at most he would punish the shopkeepers of those bookstores who did not sell books and let them reopen.

But I didn't expect that the imperial court could sell books, and it was half cheaper than the market price!

Unbelievable!

Incredible to the extreme! !

And the officials of the aristocratic family thought that they had heard it wrong.

Aren't the books all controlled by them?How could Li Shimin still have books?Did he take the wrong medicine and say the wrong thing? !

And even if there is a book, it is half the market price?

Books are scarce in this day and age.

The cost of making a book is extremely high. It can be said that bookstores do not make much profit from selling books. If they sell books for half the original price, it is a loss-making business.

Now that the Tang Dynasty has experienced natural disasters and man-made disasters, the treasury is empty, and there is not much treasury money, how dare Li Shimin do business at a loss?

This is so...

Li Shimin was stunned by the stimulation?

The first reaction of the family officials was disbelief.

And soon.

Their unbelief became reality.

I saw a Jin Wuwei, pulling an ox cart out of the imperial city in an orderly manner. The ox cart was full and covered with a white cloth, so it was impossible to see what was inside.

But when the first bullock cart lifted the white cloth, the family officials collectively crashed.

book!

It's all books! !

So many books! !

Densely piled up together, like cabbages that don't cost money, there are countless! !

this... this this...

What the hell?

What the hell?

What the hell?

The officials of the aristocratic family, and even the children of the aristocratic family outside the imperial city, their minds went blank, and all they could think about were these three words.

Hell, really hell! !

The bullock cart was full of books, piles of them, and the books were carried down and piled up together, and the thickness of the books everywhere was as high as Jin Wuwei's knees.

Oh my God! !

Where did so many books come from?How is this possible?

Even Pei Ji, who had already taken precautions in his heart, was dumbfounded at this moment. He would never have imagined such a scene.

I thought that Li Shimin was in public, and he wanted to use a few family officials to kill chickens and monkeys, but in the end he took out books.

This…….

Didn't it mean that Li Shimin didn't have a single book in his hand?Didn't it mean that all Chang'an City bookstores are closed?

What, this book in front of me is nothing! !

Could it be that, as Li Shimin said, it was given to him by God? !

Right now,

Not only Pei Ji, but other officials of the aristocratic family were also staring at the rows of books in front of them. The number of books was enough to fill the entire field of vision. They were short of breath and widened their eyes, wondering if they were dreaming.

shocked!

Senseless!

Also completely dumbfounded! !

They just stood there in a daze, looking at the ecstasy of the pro-Li faction officials with their eyes blank, and at the people who were so excited and frantically rushing into the queue to buy books.

Countless books appeared, as if they were the only ones who were unhappy.

They just feel that the whole world seems to be immersed in endless joy at this moment.

"This, what's going on here?!"

"Could it be that Li Shimin copied all the bookstores in the city?!"

Some family officials couldn't help asking.

His voice was choked and weak, as if he was about to cry.

Then there was no one who answered him.

Because the hearts of Pei Ji and others are also full of endless confusion at this time, this!what is going on! !

..............................

"Book, Lord, I want 【Book of Songs】!"

"Mencius, I want Mencius."

"Hahaha, I want to buy [Sun Tzu's Art of War]!!"

Outside the imperial city, this is a frenzy of joy for scholars.

Countless scholars raised their gold and silver, scrambling to buy a favorite book.

The Jinwu guards didn't have any attitude when they saw such a commotion among the crowd.

They were ordered and that was normal and left unattended.

All they have to do is maintain the book buying process and protect the books.

That's it.

"I bought it, haha, I bought [Mencius], hey, what's going on, why are there so many symbols in Mencius's book, what do they mean?!"

"My fair lady, a gentleman is so good. Hiss! The symbols separated are very ingenious, very ingenious!"

"Brother said so, and I also deeply feel the same. These symbols seem to make it easier for me to recite."

"It's really become easier! Compared with the books in Chang'an City Bookstore, the imperial court's books are extremely easy to memorize. They can be entered step by step, and the price is cheap. Haha, even those bookstores will open their doors for the second time. I won’t serve you anymore! I won’t buy from their bookstore!!”

"That's right! Those broken bookstores beg me to go back now, but I won't buy them either!!"

"It's not easy. Fortunately, the imperial court has books in hand, hehe, otherwise, His Majesty will really be forced by those aristocratic families and have no choice."

"Yeah, yeah, I was almost going to be succeeded by those aristocratic families."

The common people and scholars present were discussing a lot, and they were all talking about the situation of the books, and they were very enthusiastic.

at the same time.

Inside the imperial city.

Changsun Wuji and the others were all smiling.

"Haha, Pei Sikong, what's wrong with you today? You don't look very well, are you sick, do you need to see a doctor?"

Changsun Wuji came to Pei Ji with such an insolent smile.

Pei Ji's face was ugly, and he forced a smile, and said: "Pushe, grandson, the old man is fine, thank you for your concern."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "Is it really all right? Pei Sikong is very pale."

"It just so happens that today, His Majesty has the foresight to know that many officials will get sick, so he dispatched many imperial physicians in advance to make it easier for you to see a doctor."

"How about it, Pei Sikong, do you want the old man to help you to see a doctor? The old man is afraid of you... I'm so anxious that I can't walk in front of the imperial doctor by myself now."

"You..." Pei Ji was so angry that his face was livid.

Looking at the eldest grandson Wuji who deserved a beating, he couldn't help feeling angry.

But what Changsun Wuji said was the truth.

There were already aristocratic family officials present, who were not strong enough to bear it, and fainted on the spot, fainted from anger, and needed rescue.

"Haha, Pei Sikong, don't look so ugly. After all, the implementation of the imperial examination is a blessing for the court and a blessing for the world. Pei Sikong should be happy."

Changsun Wuji spoke again.

As if he had endless topics to talk about.

Pei Ji's face twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's indeed a blessing, grandson Pushe, Pei has other things, so I won't chat for now, so I'll leave now."

"Hey~ Pei Sikong..."

Changsun Wuji quickly caught up, while Pei Ji quickly retreated, without even waving goodbye, and wanted to leave the place where things were right and wrong.

After he disappeared from sight, Changsun Wuji couldn't hold back the smile in his heart anymore, and burst out laughing.

Just two words today, Shu Tan! !

………………

National Supervisor.

This is Datang's top education center and a top academic place.

The Guozijian is closed for a day today, but it is not peaceful inside.

Yu Shinan looked excited, holding a [Book of Songs] bought from the imperial city, and quickly passed through every place.

When he came to one of the rooms, he knocked on the door quickly.

"Chongyuan, here I come! I have brought good news, great news, open the door quickly!!"

Yu Shinan was extremely happy.

"Oh?"

Inside, Kong Yingda was a little surprised, opened the door and said, "He came back from the imperial city so soon? But His Majesty decided to dispose of those shopkeepers who don't sell books."

"Punishment is fine, those shopkeepers of bookstores are all of five surnames and seven Wangs. They tried to use this method in vain to make my poor family in the Tang Dynasty no longer have any scholars. It's really abominable!!"

"Hmph~ The heart of a villain is also the way of a villain, and I am not ashamed by scholars of my generation!!"
