    "Your Majesty, the stores that Yinzhuang has opened in various places are still mainly concentrated in Suzhou and Hangzhou, the Grand Canal, and then spread along the main line from Luoyang to Chang'an to Dunhuang. Your Majesty, do you want to expand more stores to the north and south?  "

    "It should be expanded. At least every state in the Tang Dynasty should have it."

    "Yan'er should talk to Mr. Tang about this matter."

    "By the way, Sister Cui, Mrs. Zheng came to Chang'an today."

    "Oh, for the printing house?"

    "It seems that Zheng's books are indeed selling well. I want to open more printing shops and print more books, but the books on the market are always sold out."

    "Your Majesty, the price of the book should be lowered appropriately so that people who are determined to achieve fame can at least take this path. Today's books are something ordinary people don't dare to think about!"

    Li Zhi¡¯s hand stopped at this time and lightly patted Cui Yan¡¯s thigh.

    "This matter needs to be done slowly. Also, to lower the price of books, this matter cannot be said from me. Let them bring it up themselves."

    "By the way, Sister Cui, let's do one more business."

    "Your Majesty, are you making paper?"

    Li Zhi looked at Cui Yan, who also turned to look at Li Zhi.

    At this time, Li Zhi couldn't help but wrap his hands around the waist of the beauty sitting on his lap, and his chin rested on Cui Yan's perfect jade shoulder.

    "Sister Cui and I really have a good understanding of each other. Today, Mrs. Zheng came to see me not only about book printing, but also about the Lu family also wanting to get a share of the book printing business. I have already agreed to this."

    "Your Majesty wants us to make paper and reduce the maximum cost of raw materials for printing books, and then let the Zheng family and the Lu family slowly lower the price of books in the competition."

    "This can only be done slowly, and these aristocratic families have to do it themselves. You can just add fuel to the flames from behind."

    "The purpose of establishing the imperial examination is actually to suppress these aristocratic families. The more scholars there are, the less people from the aristocratic families will participate in political affairs through mastering knowledge. The influence of the aristocratic families will gradually decrease. Your Majesty, you still want these aristocratic families to give themselves to you  Be a gravedigger.¡±

    "It's not like they are gravediggers, it's just that the power of the nobles is too huge. If they don't suppress them, they will cause trouble sooner or later. I don't want to crush them to death, I just want to release some of the things they hold in their hands."

    "Sister Cui, you are from the Cui family in Qinghe. You should know to some extent that the nobles and I are not of the same mind. If nothing else, at least half of our Tang Dynasty is in the hands of the nobles. Even, I don't know at all.  They are still people of the Tang Dynasty."

    Cui Yan naturally knows what His Majesty is talking about. The nobles panicked and reported the population under their rule, erasing the people who should have reported. This directly caused the population of the Tang Dynasty to be reduced by more than half.

    Cui Yan, who was born in the Cui family, is well aware of these, and also understands that through these, the nobles can obtain huge benefits from them, and accordingly, the taxation of the Tang Dynasty will be greatly affected.

    That person actually exists, but is not registered or has a household registration, and taxes are collected from there.

    This is only one of the dangers of the nobles to the Tang Dynasty. In fact, His Majesty is worried about other things. Suppressing the power of the nobles is indeed a matter of urgency.

    Cui Yan naturally didn't talk to Li Zhi about this matter. Everyone knew this in their hearts. In fact, the royal family of the Tang Dynasty was originally from a wealthy family. In the Sui Dynasty, they had already thought about what the noble family wanted and did.  , also done long ago.

    "Perhaps the Li family of Longxi knows the best about the aristocrats.

    Naturally, there is no need to talk to His Majesty about this matter.

    "Your Majesty, I will let people do the papermaking. Wherever the Zheng family and Lu family's printing shops open, there will be papermaking shops there. However, the price of paper does not mean that it should be kept low. Your Majesty,  The raw materials, labor, and workshops for papermaking also require investment.¡±

    "Don't worry, I won't make a loss-making business, just go ahead and do it."

    Cui Yan nodded, she listened to His Majesty, and she would arrange whatever His Majesty ordered.

    "Well, there is one more thing. The Jiangnan Xiao family is planning to set up a branch in Chang'an to make silk materials for us. When the time comes, you can see if there is anyone who needs help over there and help them."

    "This Yan'er knows."

    "Sister Cui, it's great to have you. As long as you are here, I can save a lot of energy here."

    Li Zhi pressed Cui Yan's shoulder. Perhaps after saying this, his mood moved slightly. He raised his head, turned Cui Yan's cheek, and kissed it gently.

    "Your Majesty saved so much energy, where did he keep it?"

      Li Zhi laughed, hugged the beautiful woman's waist, and stood up.

    "I asked Sister Cui to see where the saved energy was used."

    It was already afternoon in Ganye Temple. The nuns here had just finished their fast meal and returned to their own homes. Huijing took Wu Meiniang, facing each other, sitting cross-legged. Huijing told her some Buddhist scriptures.

    Although it was His Majesty's wish to let Wu Meiniang follow him, Huijing still liked her very much after taking this apprentice for a while.

    If nothing else, Wu Meiniang learns things very quickly, and she can be said to have unique intelligence. If some things were not specially arranged by His Majesty, Huijing believes that Wu Meiniang can be the next one if she stays in Ganye Temple for a few years.  The abbot of Ganye Temple was trained.

    In fact, not only Huijing was amazed at her learning speed, but her senior sister also praised her several times.

    ¡°This is just Wu Meiniang¡¯s recent arrival at Ganye Temple. This really makes her stay in Ganye Temple for several years, and I really don¡¯t dare to think about her Buddhist attainments.

    At this time, after talking about some things, Huijing began to sit cross-legged, chant sutras, and cultivate herself.

    There, Wu Meiniang put away her things and walked out of the meditation room, but she stood there quietly, looking at the figure in front of her, her expression changing several times.

    "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

    "What's the matter? I'm not welcome to come?"

    "No, Mei Niang really didn't expect it. And there was no movement at the temple."

    "Looking at my attire, you should have guessed that my visit to Ganye Temple was not a big deal this time."

    "Your Majesty doesn't leave the palace secretly, right?"

    "What nonsense are you talking about? I want to leave the palace. Do I need to sneak out?"

    Wu Meiniang just smiled. Inside the Zen room, Huijing was chanting sutras and reciting the Buddha's name, concentrating on practicing. However, the words of the two people outside came in faintly, and someone's heart could not calm down at all.

    Huijing opened her eyes and sighed helplessly. After meeting His Majesty, her years of practice were completely shattered.

    Once the dusty mind is aroused again, it is really difficult to calm down.

    Every time Your Majesty comes here, it actually makes your cultivation path more difficult.

    Huijing sighed, loosened the rosary beads in her hands, and walked out of the house.

    "Your Majesty, Huijing is polite." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
