With Huang Ruliang's approval, this "internal reference" is basically considered to have obtained the birth certificate.
The Hanlin Academy has its own special printing house, and the printing house is not small. The most important thing is that the confidentiality here is relatively good, and when printing some sensitive topics, there is no risk of leakage.
The initiative must be in one's own hands. This is Feng Ziying's clear goal from the beginning. Such a public opinion weapon that may be of great significance in the future must not fall into the hands of outsiders.
Feng Ziying had to think more deeply. Xu Xie and Zheng Chongjian were not suitable for the time being, so they could only carry it on their own first and see if they could train a group of people. Fan Jingwen, He Fengsheng, and Fang Youdu could think about it carefully.
It's just that Fang Youdu ranks low among the top three Jinshi, and it's unclear whether he can stay as a Beijing official in the future. This is a problem. Feng Ziying couldn't have worked so hard to train him to take over, only to be released.
But there are too many variables and opportunities in two or three years, so Feng Ziying is still quite sure.
Three articles, thousands of words, turned into the first issue of "Internal Reference".
Feng Ziying, Lian Guoshi, Yang Sichang, Xu Xie, Hou Xun, Fan Jingwen, He Fengsheng, Fang Youdu, Zheng Chongjian and others almost stayed at the seal office of the Hanlin Academy, watching this fresh release of the Hanlin Academy's "Internal Reference"
.
From typesetting to printing, we also need to consider the paper surface and block size, and whether it is two-color overprinting. Many typesetting issues are studied one by one on site. Even though Feng Ziying has simulated a layout before, it is easier said than done.
When the printing office went to print, we realized that there were so many joints inside.
These days, movable type has evolved from wooden movable type to copper movable type and lead movable type, but lead movable type has not yet become popular. In the Hanlin Academy Seal Hall, copper movable type is still the main type.
However, the set of copper movable type in the Hanlin Academy is of extremely high standard. It is as famous as the time-honored Jiangnan Wuxi Huajia Seal Hall, Anjia Seal Hall, Suzhou Jinlan Hall, and Jinling Zhangjia Seal Hall, and is of particularly high standard. However, this set of copper movable type is not worth much.
Philippines, and its workmanship is exquisite, and the printed products are far better than ordinary wooden movable type, so there are few companies in Beijing that can compete with the Hanlin Academy Seal House.
The Hanlin Academy Press Office does not need other commercial press offices. It only pursues quality, not efficiency, which is what Feng Ziying currently hopes. Counting the first issue of "Internal Reference", only fifty copies have been printed, except for the six volumes of Jiuqingtang Shangguan.
, that is, the Hanlin Academy, the Fifth Military Governor's Mansion and the Emperor need to submit it.
Although there were only a few dozen copies, Feng Ziying believed that the storm caused by this "Internal Reference" would shock the entire Zhou court.
As the first issue of "Internal Reference" was printed, everyone couldn't help but feel excited. They gathered around and placed the foldable printing paper on the stone table outside the printing house, spread it out, and carefully
Take a closer look.
The entire layout still uses Feng Ziying's design. In the upper left corner are the two large characters "Internal Reference" in regular script, occupying the most obvious part from top to bottom, and then on the right are two lines of small characters, "Inner Contains Heaven and Earth, Comprehension"
The heaven and earth, the people's livelihood and the military situation are all hidden here." Then in Zheng Zhong is a dragon seal of the Hanlin Academy, and finally on the lower right are five large characters in Li style, "Hanlin Academy of the Great Zhou Dynasty".
On the upper right side, there are several slightly smaller official characters framed in a box: Confidential matters, please keep them carefully and do not disclose them to others.
Next, there are three titles, marked with title and page number.
Just the words "Inherent Heaven and Earth to comprehend the universe" seemed a bit empty, so Feng Ziying added eight more words, which were made up by herself. Fortunately, this is a political commentary publication, so there is no need to be too particular.
What a melodious rhythm.
The title written by Xu Xie is "A Brief Examination of Livelihoods along the Coasts of Fujian and Zhejiang" and is placed first. After the title is the author, which is quite eye-catching. He was a Jinshi in the second place in the fifth year of Yonglong and Xu Xie, a Shuji scholar. The page numbers are from one to nine.
Fang Youdu's title is obviously more sensational, "The Secret Hidden Behind the Bizarre Suicide Case of the Ministry of Punishment—Officials, Opinions on the Shortcomings of the Administration of Punishment", and then the author is the top three Jinshi in the fifth year of Yonglong, Fang Youdu, the Ministry of Punishment's observation of politics, page number
Marked as pages nine to seventeen
In the first half, Feng Ziying asked about the naming, which also aroused Fang Youdu's dissatisfaction, thinking that it was a bit sensational, but Feng Ziying insisted, thinking that if the first issue was to be memorable, there must be something eye-catching, and many
The question is too simple, so Fang Youdu needs to be more exciting.
The title of the third article was drawn up by Zheng Chongjian himself, "Trouble at the Elbow and Armpit - The Imminent Military Crisis in Ningxia Town". The author is Zheng Chongjian, a top-ranking scholar in the fifth year of Yonglong, a member of the Ministry of War, a second-ranked scholar in the fifth year of Yonglong, and Feng Keng, a shuji scholar.
.The page numbers range from 18 to 32, mainly citing excerpts from the Shaanxi Chief Envoy Department, Shaanxi Xingdu Department and Gansu Town, Ningxia Town, and Yulin Town newspapers.
Feng Ziying ranked her name after Zheng Chongjian. Zheng Chongjian also firmly disagreed with this kindness before, until Feng Ziying clearly told him that he did not need to worry about his appointment after two years in office, and Zheng Chongjian still needed to consider where he would go after his future appointment.
, Zheng Chongjian accepted this "gift".
After the fifty copies of "Internal Reference" were typed and printed, it was actually very simple. Seeing the printed paper printed page by page, the texture was clear and the handwriting was neat, while the laborers skillfully divided them into volumes.
Then it is glued with rice juice and tied with silk thread, and then numbered, and a complete "Internal Reference" is completed.
*******
Huang Ruliang was naturally the first to receive the first issue of "Internal Reference". It was a thin book of about thirty pages, which was quite different from a book.
But the cover is very stunning. Not only is the pattern of the design very different from the various popular books at the moment, but the dragon mark of the Hanlin Academy and a few large characters also make him, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, in charge of the Hanlin Academy.
I am very proud to be a bachelor's degree student at the Hanlin Academy.
Of course, what is more eye-catching are those few sentences. Huang Ruliang naturally knows the origin of the name "Internal Reference", but the addition of the words "people's livelihood and military information are all hidden here" makes this book seem to be full and real in one word.
stand up.
The words "Confidential matters, please keep them carefully and do not disclose them to outsiders" made this thing suddenly appear mysterious and unpredictable, and also aroused everyone's desire.
Although Huang Ruliang had read these articles several times, he couldn't help but read them carefully again. Needless to say, Xu Xie's articles were of course helped to revise and improve them himself, but the name was only
It can be carried by Xu Xie.
He was not very interested in Ningxia's military affairs. He would not pursue political affairs unless he was in his position. Moreover, he felt that Feng Ziying seemed to attach great importance to this article and even wrote it himself. This also aroused some of his curiosity.
But after reading it, he was a little confused. Is the situation in Ningxia Town really that bad?
So what are the Ministry of War and the Fifth Military Governor's Office doing? What are the Metropolitan Procuratorate doing?
If Ningxia Town is like this, what about Gansu Town, Yulin Town and Guyuan Town with three sides and four towns? Will it be similar? Huang Ruliang will probably have this doubt in everyone who has read this article.
It was Fang Youdu's article that interested Huang Ruliang the most, and it was also enjoyable to read.
The introduction to the case is concise and concise, but very clear. The key words are to discuss the case that produced such a wide-ranging case that lasted for several years and caused the anger of the imperial court. It was so simple and not as mysterious and complicated as outsiders imagined. Even in the
In Huang Ruliang's opinion, an official or even a clerk with a little knowledge of the Criminal Department's handling of cases can find out.
It is such a simple case, but due to the inexperience of the county magistrate who was investigated first and the carelessness of the prosecutor, the lack of investigation at the government level, the officials who promoted the case were self-righteous and self-righteous, and the Nanjing Criminal Department was lazy and followed the rules.
Using the original evidence and analyzing it piece by piece, one has to admire the author's efforts.
The key is that this article involves not only the issues of the Ministry of Justice, but also the selection and appointment of officials by the Ministry of Personnel and the inspection and assessment mechanism of officials by the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The author obviously has reservations in the article.
However, some looming doubts and concerns were still raised, and some directional suggestions and opinions were given.
However, in the so-called editor's note at the end, the tone suddenly became sharp and pointed, questioning several key issues one after another.
Why the county magistrate was directly appointed as the county magistrate after winning the election without engaging in any history, especially criminal law matters, and specifically hired a Qianliang master but not a criminal master is also a big problem.
In the county magistrate's rebuttal, he said that he had no money to hire two masters, and his salary was far from enough. He even owed the salary of the master of finance and grain, and had to wait for fees to be paid from the taxes and miscellaneous taxes of the year. This problem is the same.
Worth pondering.
Huang Ruliang was particularly interested in the editor's note placed at the end. He had only read the article before, but he didn't know that there was an editor's note of less than a hundred words behind it.
Just like the editor's note in Xu Xie's article, he pointed out bluntly and bluntly that the imperial maritime ban had brought huge losses to the coastal people, which had led to the hardship of livelihood for the people along the coast who lacked land and farmland, and in turn triggered the Japanese pirates
and the proliferation of smuggling.
The disfavor of the people is a major reason why the Japanese pirates are rampant and the court cannot restrain them. Then the court should either come up with necessary policies and systems to give these people an explanation, or it should consider whether the disadvantages and benefits of this system are due to the different times.
There are changes and improvements are made.
This editor's note, full of joy and sharpness of writing, is far better than the usual euphemistic and implicit words for the sake of face in the court, which makes Huang Ruliang feel so happy and happy.
