    Hubu Shangshu Ma Xingbang brought several civil servants out of Beginning-of-Creation Palace, Wen Miao was among them.

    After returning to the Great Zhou, this great Confucian did not return to the countryside as most people expected, but chose to join the Great Zhou court as an official.

    After the destruction of the Nanchen Kingdom, Nanchen's officials and soldiers originally intended to serve for the new dynasty more than Qin Nuo originally expected, and it was not because of his credit.

    Wen Miao smiled and greeted Fang Yuan.

    Fang Yuan noticed that they were holding things in their hands. Wen Miao smiled and said, “The charcoal pen and paper rewarded by the emperor are newly produced by the inner government. It is much more convenient to record things and calculate numbers without grinding ink.”

    Fang Yuan has seen it a long time ago. This thing was first popularized in the military and business travel. After all, walking outside is inconvenient. It is troublesome to arrange pen, ink, paper and inkstone. It is very convenient to use this to record something. This one newly produced by Neifu has exceptionally clear handwriting, and it will soon become popular among the people.

    Entered the inner temple. The young emperor was bowing his head at the desk, shaking the pen in his hand.

    Seeing Fang Yuan coming in, he irritably pushed the mess of paper on the table.

    "I'm talking about this year's spending plan with a bunch of old guys. It's troublesome to calculate."

    The young emperor complained that it would be great if there was a calculator. Praising modern technology, the ancient abacus is too difficult to use!

    Fang Yuan had become accustomed to the emperor’s inexplicable words that occasionally popped out. He stepped forward to tidy up the mess of papers and papers on the table for him, and scanned the pile of white paper in the corner of the table.

    The paper is delicate and white, and it is first-class. Fang Yuan asked: "This is the new white ring paper produced by Inner Palace before?"

    Recently, the Division of Gewu has made substantial improvements to paper, reducing the cost of fine paper by more than half and simplifying the process flow.

    "Yes, I decided to promote it to the world this year."

    "There is one more profit in the inner palace, and the emperor's inner library will soon be restored." Fang Yuan smiled.

    "It is not to sell paper to the world, but to promote the production process so that all paper workshops in the world can be upgraded. Only in this way can the cost of paper be reduced at a faster rate." Qin Nuo explained

    This answer was beyond Fang Yuan's expectations.

    To his puzzled expression, Qin Nuoxi said, "Different items have different disposal methods. Liuli drinks are not necessities of life, but luxuries. Rely on them to earn money and enrich my small treasury. And these are daily necessities, and putting it in the world will benefit the people. It will also help the spread of words."

    China has developed a farming society for thousands of years, and the progress of civilization has been slow. Qin Nuo feels that one of the main problems is that the efficiency of cultural inheritance is too low. In ancient times, books were not accessible to people who were not in the upper class. In addition, in order to save paper, many records were reduced as much as possible, and those that could be explained in three words were not used in five words.

    Pen, ink and paper are the carrier of civilization. Only cheaper and more convenient tools can spread knowledge more widely and accurately, and can create more talents. Otherwise, even if Einstein was reborn in ancient society and had no contact with words, he would only be a farmer all his life.

    "But the business in the inner palace can't be relaxed. I don't know how much money this trip to sea can bring back to me." Qin Nuo imagined the caravan returning home full of fruit.

    Since the return of the northern border and the beginning of the spring this year, the inner government can’t wait to reorganize business. Just last month, using the converted fleet, twelve large ships set off from Anton Port and sailed to Dongying. Next month the second fleet will set sail in the direction of Nanyang.

    This is Qin Nuo's first test of the sea trade business.

    There are many types of goods on board, but not many in quantity. The main task of this fleet is to get familiar with local culture and market, purchase local specialties, and open up commercial channels.

    Dongying and Nanyang have also been visited by adventurous merchants before, and both have fixed waterways, so Qin Nuo is not worried about the success or failure of this voyage. The difference is only in the amount of gain. In a few months, there will be a larger fleet ready to explore the remote western lands. That's a big project that takes a long time.

    What needs to be prepared is not only ships, but also various talents...Qin Nuo thought worriedly.

    Fang Yuan asked with a smile: "The emperor shouldn't be too irritable these days, and be careful of blocked meridians."

    Qin Nuo gave a noncommittal grunt.

    Packing up his things and putting them aside, Qin Nuo stretched out his wrist, Fang Yuan raised his hand and pressed it on.

    The warm internal force travels along the meridians, warm and comfortable. Qin Nuo was full of lazy tiredness, and couldn't help but fall asleep.

    "There is nothing serious about the emperor's injury, so that the minister can walk more easily." Fang Yuan smiled.

    He will set off to the south tomorrow. When entered the palace today, apart from reporting military affairs, was mainly worried about the emperor's power.

    "I said it was okay a long time ago. But you are still so worried." Qin Nuo complained.

    Fang Yuan glanced at him speechlessly: "If the emperor comes back again, I'm afraid that half of the court will be paralyzed by fright."

    He was talking about an Oolong half a month ago.

    Speaking of this matter, Qin Nuo was also helpless.

    It happened one night half a month ago.

    It has been a few months since returning to Korea, Qin Nuo successfully exchanged with Qin Zhi. After being bored in the palace for a year, Qin Zhi couldn't wait to visit the palace of Biezhuang, while Qin Nuo took over the government after a year of absence, and restored the boring time of criticizing Zhezi every day.

    During the busy interval, Qin Nuo did not put aside his martial arts cultivation. Since going out, Qin Nuo has fully realized the importance of martial arts, so he has become more diligent in his practice.

    He has long been accustomed to Fang Yuan's company alone. Now that Fang Yuan is not in the palace, he doesn't want to call others anymore, keeping the little secret of practicing alone.

    That night, when he was cultivating in the inner room alone, he was careless, and his inner interest went wrong, and he even got hot.

    Startled by the sound inside the bed, Xu Mincai stepped forward to check and found that the emperor's situation was not right, and was shocked.

    However, Qin Nuo was cold and unable to speak.

    The attendants in the entire Beginning-of-Creation Palace were scared to death. Everyone thought it was the emperor who had fallen ill. They rushed out and not only summoned the medical officer on duty in the Imperial Medicine Court, but also the Imperial Medicine Court officials such as Mei Jing who had returned home.

    Fortunately, Mei Jing and others are all familiar with martial arts, and the new deputy commander of the guards, Chen Changan, also noticed that the situation was not right. Everyone judged that something went wrong in the practice.

    With the help of Chen Changan, Qin Nuomian emphasized the movement of internal interest and suppressed the internal force that went wrong. He said that he was not infected with the wind and cold, and it was indeed something wrong with martial arts practice.

    There was another flutter in the inner hall, and Lee Maru hurried out to find Fang Yuan.

    Since Jin’s Fengzhennan General, Fang Yuan had dismissed the position of guard of the inner court, Qin Nuo gave a mansion outside the palace.

    Lee Maru rushed into the new Southern Defence General's Residence with someone, only to find that Fang Yuan was not in the house. These days, for the reorganization of the military affairs of the Southern Army, he was busy at the Ministry of War until midnight almost every night.

    Lee Maru had to turn around and rush towards the Ministry of War.

    When Fang Yuan heard the news, he entered the palace urgently and found that Pei Ling had also entered the palace.

    It turned out that everyone in Huo Youjuan was waiting for Fang Yuan in the palace for a long time, and was anxious to get angry. Thinking of the martial arts in the capital, General Pei was the master, so he sent Chen Changan to invite Pei Ling into the palace.

    A group of people tossed for a long time, and finally settled Qin Nuo's situation.

    "The emperor, martial arts cultivation requires gradual progress, how can you be so impatient?" Pei Ling said with a stern face.

    "Ha, I don't think that martial arts have been successful recently, so I tried to hit the meridian points." Qin Nuo was embarrassed.

    Azure Heaven Mingjian, he just wanted to operate the gong body as usual at the beginning, slowly trying to figure it out, but it was too comfortable when the internal energy flowed, like endless waves washing inside the body. Ghosts make a difference, and want to try to hit the pass, but didn't expect the reality to be so slapped.

    "The emperor has made great progress in martial arts because of the sharp increase in martial arts experience over the past year on the battlefield, not the increase in internal strength." Pei Ling shook his head, piercing Qin Nuo's self-righteous good illusion.

    Qin Nuo thought for a while, and realized that he was impulsive. There is really no shortcut to martial arts cultivation.

    A small storm passed through without danger, but Qin Nuo discovered that the storm was far from the simple one he experienced last night.

    Think about it, late at night, the palace suddenly sent an envoy to summon officials from the Imperial Medicine Court to enter, and then anxiously sent the new general Fang Yuan and General Pei Ling into the palace.

    The courtiers who didn't know their internal situation suddenly panicked. Could it be that something happened to the emperor's body?

    See pity in the sky! There is only one seedling left in the Great Zhou Dynasty! The emperor has no heirs yet! ! !

    Before the morning time came the next day, the important ministers poured into the palace, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

    At last Qin Nuo went to court in time and explained with a smile, "Last night, I accidentally thought of the improvement of military alcohol. On a whim, I invited all the adults to discuss."

    The officials were relieved to learn that it was just a false alarm.

    Fan Wensheng said that he really wants to sue his old man and return to his hometown.

    Many courtiers were filled with righteous indignation, and they were so panicked. It was because the emperor was young and weak, the royal bloodline was thin, the branches and leaves were scattered, and the blood was inherited. It is urgent! Please immediately draft women and serve in the palace!

    When this happened, Qin Nuo really regretted that his self-confidence had rushed forward.

    Fortunately, after two big victories, the emperor's prestige in the court is soaring, and it is almost the same without saying a word. It took a lot of hands and feet to suppress this wave of public opinion.

    "The emperor is now all involved in the safety of the world. It's no wonder that the adults are anxious." Fang Yuan couldn't help being amused as he recalled the incident of more than half a month.

    After carefully inspecting the emperor's martial energy status, he said: "The emperor's meridians have been fully restored, but don't be impatient when doing work in the next few months."

    "I see." Qin Nuo said boredly. Before reading martial arts fantasy novels, the protagonist had achieved great success in one or two years. After his debut, he blocked and killed the gods and buddhas, and cut down dozens of trainings every day. A century-old veteran master. But when you get to yourself, you have to go step by step and take your time.

    "The emperor's age is very rare to have such a cultivation base." Fang Yuan severely criticized the emperor's desire for quick success. Can the story in the storybook be taken seriously? The orthodox martial arts in the world are all gradual. Those who use shortcuts to advance by leaps and bounds do not follow the right path and are very easy to leave hidden dangers.

    After the master had taught him, Qin Nuo had no choice but to nod his head obediently, and immediately remembered that Pei Ling came again. Didn't he rely on Beidi Xuanzhu to achieve martial arts in a short time.

    "The Northern Emperor Xuanzhu is the strange number of the heavens and the earth, which can create miracles, but even with this kind of heaven and earth treasures, there are hidden dangers, otherwise the injuries of General Pei over the years will not be healed late." Fang Yuan sighed.

    Qin Nuo only recently learned that Pei Ling was really injured. He had retired due to the injury before, and it was not just an apparent rapid retreat.

    It stands to reason that with his power, any medicinal treasure in the world is easily available, but after several years of recuperation, although the injury can be suppressed, it has not been completely healed.

    Fang Yuan speculated: "It should be a person who has cultivated with the help of the Northern Emperor Xuanzhu. The meridian energy is dependent on the Xuanzhu. If you want to completely remove the hidden danger and repair the injury, you still need the material of the Xuanzhu. Other medicines are not for the symptoms. Cure the root cause."

    Qin Nuo's mind moved slightly, and he seemed to understand.

    After the two discussed military affairs, it was already dusk.

    Qin Nuo ordered the royal dining room to prepare dinner, leaving Fang Yuan to eat together in the palace.

    "It's me who did it for you."

    During the meal, Fang Yuan found that the emperor was looking at him with a subtle expression.

    "What's the matter? The emperor?"

    "Uh, I suddenly remembered something that Zhi'er told me a few days ago." Qin Nuo looked at Fang Yuan, not knowing how to speak.

    This incident actually made him very happy, and even regretted how he didn't find it early.

    I only blame myself for being too negligent before and failing to read the genealogy of Nanchen's many nobles.

    As a distinguished family of Nanchen inheritance for hundreds of years, the Bai family certainly has a close marriage with the Chen family. The most recent one was decades ago.

    At that time, the Emperor Shenlong died, Emperor Yong usurped the throne, and Prince Hongyi escaped from the capital. However, Emperor Yong treated courtesy to the dozen daughters left by Emperor Dragon. Perhaps it was because of the kindness of the dragon emperor's nurturing, or out of guilt in his heart. He treated these princesses as sisters, arranged proper marriages for them, and granted them honorable titles.

    Among them, the most prominent birthplace is the princess Minhe, who was born by the imperial concubine, who is also the same mother and sister of Prince Hongyi.

    Her Royal Highness, the princess, married the head of the Bai family after she became an adult, and gave birth to a son, Bai Feiheng, a famous general in Nanchen.

    Counting that up, Fang Yuan is also his cousin. My grandfather and his grandmother are brothers and sisters of the same father!

    I finally have a cousin who doesn't cheat myself, and I'm a little excited when I think about it!

    Just because of this... Fang Yuan has some black lines, "The minister thought the emperor had known it a long time ago."

    "Uh, I was negligent." Qin Nuo smiled and said, "When you come back from this trip, tell me about the old things that year."

    ...

    After eating a meal for more than half an hour, Qin Nuo personally delivered Fang Yuan to the entrance of Beginning-of-Creation Palace.

    "The minister will go south to Jianye this time and will return as soon as possible. If the emperor has any doubts about martial arts, you can ask General Pei or the adults."

    "I know, anyway, you will be able to come back three or four months after this trip. In the past few months, I will definitely take steps and practice hard. I won't be rushing forward anymore." Qin Nuo smiled.

    Fang Yuan leaned over and bowed, then got up and backed out, after going out of the hall door, he turned and left.

    Looking at his back in the distance, Qin Nuowei felt sad, the monarch and his ministers finally got together, but they wanted to part with each other immediately.

    Fang Yuan is an eagle flying in the sky, with amazing talent and mind. It is impossible for him to restrain him by his side, just as a guard escorting him.

    The difference in front of us is for better gathering, a brighter future and a wider world.

    ***

    The night breeze brought cold, Fang Yuan rode his horse on the official road, and the streets of the capital were bustling with people coming and going.

    Since the curfew was postponed, the night market has become more prosperous than ever.

    On the distant sky, a bright moon rose slowly, shining through thousands of lights on the ground, cheering and laughing.

    A young woman is standing in front of her restaurant, enthusiastically soliciting customers. She smiled brightly, her voice was loud, and her big bright eyes were full of vitality.

    There seemed to be a small figure, coming out of the counter behind, holding the woman's leg, her black croissant braid swaying, yelling: "Mother, Afu wants to eat maltose!"

    A smile appeared on Fang Yuan's face. He clipped the horses, the steed galloped, and a group of people galloped on the broad official road.

    The prosperous country that allowed the world to live and work in peace, still remembers the dream that the young emperor once promised so much in his ears.

    The world is Jingping, the swords and soldiers are not prosperous, Haiyan Heqing, the country is peaceful.

    He originally intended to overcome obstacles and fight hard, in order to make this beautiful dream come one day earlier...
