Chapter 411: Liu Rushi Faces the Saint, Promoted by the Propaganda Department
The content of the imperial edict is very simple. Zhu Ma said that Liu Rushi was well-read and had great talent. If he wanted to give him an official position, he first ordered her to go to the palace to talk.
But this simple content shocked Qian Qianyi, Liu Rushi and others to the point where they could not come back to their senses for a while.
It was not until the second time that Eunuch Li said, "Liu Rushi should accept the order" that Liu Rushi came back to his senses and answered the order: "The civilian woman received the order!"
Only when everyone got up did Qian Qianyi come back to his senses.
He looked at what Liu Rushi wanted to say, but didn't know what to say, so he looked at Eunuch Li and asked, "Eunuch Li, did Your Majesty mention Qian?"
At the same time, it was signaled to the butler to give the money.
This time, Eunuch Li confiscated the cash and said with a faint smile: "Our family is just a eunuch, how can we know about this? If you are willing, please let Mrs. Zun prepare quickly and follow our family to meet the saint."
Qian Qianyi was reminded of this point, and realized that Liu Rushi entered the palace to meet the saint, and he was very good at seeing him. If he could really be appreciated by Zhu Ma, he might have the opportunity to say a few good words to him in the future.
Re-enabled.
So he said to Liu Rushi in a urging tone: "Go and change your clothes and enter the palace quickly, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time."
Liu Rushi was actually very nervous at this moment, mixed with expectations, excitement, curiosity and other emotions. He nodded and changed into a more elegant and solemn costume. Then he followed Eunuch Li to the Forbidden City...
Wuying Palace.
After Liu Rushi worshipped, he stood up and waited for Zhu Mai to ask questions.
Zhu Ma was looking at Liu Rushi, while Hao Guangming was also watching through the phone camera on the other side.
He found that although Liu Rushi is now twenty-seven and has a light makeup, his appearance is still very good, and he is worthy of being one of the eight beauties of Qinhuai in the past.
In addition, Liu Rushi also has a very obvious bookish atmosphere, which is not as strong as Liu Shuying, and the overall feeling is still elegant and gentle.
"Liu Rushi, do you know the news?"
Liu Rushi's real name is Yang Ai. After falling into the world, he changed his name to Liu Yin and took the name Rushi. Later, he became a famous prostitute. Most people at that time called him Liu Rushi. Even the name Liu Yin was rarely mentioned. As for Yang Ai's real name, he did not know.
many.
Although Zhu Mai knew about this, she followed Hao Guangming's habit and called him Liu Rushi.
"The civilian woman knows a little bit." Liu Rushi replied.
"Then you talk."
When Liu Rushi was still a famous prostitute, he liked to read the divine newspaper, and was very concerned about the important affairs of the court and the war, so he really knew the divine newspaper.
She said: "It is reported that there was a diary in the Han Dynasty. At that time, local counties and states set up a ‘dian’ in Beijing and sent people to settle in time to copy the news from the court and convey it to the local area, so it was called ‘dian’.
When we arrived in our dynasty, in order to avoid misinformation among the people and criticize the government affairs, the Tongzheng Department was established to be responsible for publishing the residence newspaper.
Most of the contents are briefly written in the red memorials copied by the Six Chronicles, and there are also words of encouragement and admonition from the court to local officials."
Zhu Mian smiled and nodded.
Liu Rushi is indeed knowledgeable, and his narrative of Di Bao is similar to the information Hao Guangming gave her.
"Do you know what newspapers are there in the folk?"
Although the concept of newspapers has been around for a long time, it was the first time that Liu Rushi heard the term "newspaper".
She thought for a while and said, "As far as the people know, there is a 'Beijing News' among the people, which mainly copy the content of the mansion newspaper, and adds some interesting news in the capital city, and even some business transaction information. It is a widely circulated type.
However, the "Beijing News" is said by the people that its printing is actually "Dibao". In addition, there are some other copybooks that also mainly focus on the content of the Dibao. It has very little circulated and is not as popular as the climate."
After hearing Liu Rushi's story about the Beijing News, Zhu Mo and Hao Guangming were both curious - the couple really didn't know about this.
Zhu Mai asked immediately: "Since I ascended the throne, will there be Beijing news circulating in Nanjing?"
Liu Rushi was actually an old customer of the Beijing News. He heard this and said, "It's true."
"Then how long will the Beijing News be issued? How many copies can be sold each time?"
Liu Rushi was slightly stunned when he heard this. Not only did he look up at Zhu Mai, but he obviously did not understand Zhu Mai's words as soon as possible.
But she was indeed smart, and she realized it in just two or three seconds, and replied: "Report to Your Majesty, there is no fixed period for the sale of the Beijing News. Generally speaking, it is at least once a month. As for how much it can be sold, the civilian woman does not know how much it can be sold.
, but there shouldn’t be many, after all, there are only some officials, scholars, and merchants who will buy it.”
After listening to it, Zhu Mai pondered for a moment and finally revealed the real purpose of summoning Liu Rushi.
"I need someone to run a newspaper, would you like to do this?"
Hearing this, Liu Rushi couldn't help but breathe slightly, and his heartbeat accelerated.
On the way to the palace, she guessed that Zhu Ma might be talking about poetry, music, calligraphy and painting, because her reputation in this regard was indeed widely circulated.
After meeting the saint, Zhu Mai asked the official newspaper as soon as he came up and asked about the Beijing newspaper. Liu Rushi felt that if Zhu Mai really wanted to be appointed as an official, he would probably be in the leisurely Tongzhengsi.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Mai was interested in asking her to run a newspaper. With her intelligence and keen political sense, she immediately realized that she was probably going to be reused this time!
Although he was excited and nervous, Liu Rushi did not react slowly and immediately bowed and said, "The civilian woman is willing!"
Zhu Meiyu smiled brightly, raised a simple hand and said, "Watch the Hanlin Academy, I want to point out, and I will be appointed as the seventh-rank official of the Propaganda Department, and will be promoted to the affairs of the "Da Ming Pao" and the editor-in-chief of the newspaper.
”
Liu Rushi was even more excited and her heartbeat was faster when she heard this - she didn't expect that Zhu Meiyu would come up and give him a seventh-rank official, and he also had an official position in the Propaganda Department.
She has also heard of a newly established propaganda department among the ten imperial court departments, and it is said that there is no one at present.
If she became the first official of the Propaganda Department, even if she was only from the seventh rank, she would have great prospects.
After coming back to his senses, Liu Rushi immediately knelt down and said, "I received the order to thank you!"
"Get up." Zhu Meisu smiled, "I will talk to you about the establishment of a newspaper and the "Da Ming Pao" again."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Speaking of which, the official position promoted by Liu Rushi, the Propaganda Department, is much lower than that of the head of Hao Guangming's initial suggestion.
The other departments were originally officials of the eighth rank. In order to show their importance to the newspaper, Zhu Ma was promoted to the next level, but he still could not compare with the head and the head of the official.
It was not that Zhu Ma was jealous because Hao Guangming praised Liu Rushi, but that after careful consideration and thought that she and Hao Guangming should not come up, they gave Liu Rushi an official position too high, which put too heavy burden on them.
Although the Ming Dynasty now has her, the empress, and the army also includes two female generals, Qin Liangyu and Hongniangzi. Her private organization secretariat and telecommunications office also mainly appoint female officials, it is the first time that arranging female officials in the position of civil servants in the court.
.
After all, this is a thing that challenges the thousand-year tradition and will definitely be resisted by civil servants. Even if civil servants do not dare to attack openly due to her prestige and strength, they will put pressure on Liu Ru in secret.
In this way, it is not good for Liu Rushi and the news bureau that he originally planned to host.
Therefore, Zhu Mai Yu simply asked Liu Rushi to be the editor-in-chief from the newspaper.
The newspaper is a new unit, and newspapers can barely be considered new things. On the surface, it cannot harm the interests of civil officials in the court. In this way, Liu Rushi and the Ming Pao will be under much less pressure.
Of course, her actions in this regard are so slow and gentle. If there are still people who are not conscious of their wits, make trouble or even obstruct them, she doesn't mind using the knife...
It was not until the afternoon that Liu Rushi came back.
Among them, the Imperial Guard came over to send a message saying that Liu Rushi was left in the palace for lunch by Zhu Mei.
This made Qian Qianyi tremble with excitement, and he felt that his turning point in his life was coming.
When Liu Ru returned home in the afternoon, Qian Qianyi immediately came up and greeted her with great sincerity, "Has Madam been back?"
Liu Rushi nodded first, then couldn't help but say, "Why did you come to the yard to welcome me? How bad is it to be heard?"
"What's wrong with that? I don't care about that little fame." Qian Qianyi pretended to be careless and asked immediately, "Are you having lunch with His Majesty?"
This matter is indeed meaningful, so Liu Rushi couldn't help but blush with excitement and nodded, "I'm too involved in chatting with Your Majesty. At noon, I ate some simple meals in Wuying Hall."
Hearing this, Qian Qianyi was even more excited than Liu Rushi and asked again: "What official position does Your Majesty give to Mrs.?"
