0118 Queen's Choice

These are the conclusions that Chen Jingke saw when he was studying history in his previous life, so he dared to fight against Li Shimin and the gentry for the right to speak behind his back.

But his real purpose was not to attack the nobles. Simply attacking the nobles would not solve any problems. If the nobles fell, Guanlong would still be there, and new nobles would rise.

His purpose is to use this opportunity to further popularize knowledge and allow more poor families and ordinary people to have access to advanced knowledge. As their group gradually grows, they will naturally strive for benefits for themselves.

At that time, either the nobles and Guan Long Jungui will change themselves, or everyone will change the dynasty with real swords and guns.

Who will win? History has already given the answer.

Of course, these are all things in the future. There is no shadow at the moment. Chen Jingke is just taking advantage of the confrontation between the two major groups to steal as much as possible.

He didn't even tell Sun Simiao about this plan, so Wu Shu was naturally even less likely to know about it.

But she could judge based on what she saw and heard that Chen Jingke's actions such as printing, compiling dictionaries, and making public the sentences used privately by the nobles were very dangerous.

(The ancients have long mastered the method of isolating sentence readings, but they only used it privately and were not allowed to be printed in books. The reason is worth pondering.)

In the past, she would have stayed far away from Chen Jingke and never ventured into this muddy water. But he had helped her, and she would need Sun Simiao to heal her mother later.

In addition, she had a deeper consideration. Judging from the queen's attitude towards Chen Jingke, if she chose to do this, it would be equivalent to renunciation from the royal family.

Even if the nobles knew about her behavior, they would not think highly of her. Even the emperor despised her, so how could they think highly of the daughter of Yu, a warrior who was a merchant?

After weighing it, she decided to side with Chen Jingke, as she would at least have her own place here.

Thinking of this, she warned: "The real person should be careful. Naturally, the nobles do not dare to do anything to the court, for fear that they will vent their anger on you."

Chen Jingke didn't know that she had just brainstormed a lot. He was very surprised when he heard the reminder, and then thought that she was like this because he was grateful to him for helping her.

I still feel very emotional in my heart. When she was young, Her Majesty the Queen was a good child with a clear distinction between kindness and resentment. However, her abominable life has changed her beyond recognition.

He is naturally very concerned about his own safety, but he is very afraid of death: "Thank you Madam Wu for your concern, I will pay attention to it. I almost never go out, and I will bring a few good hands for protection when I go out."

Then he said solemnly: "It is true that compiling a dictionary may be targeted by the nobles. Please think carefully about whether you want to participate."

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter what you choose in the end, I won't offend Mrs. Wu for this."

Wu Shu chuckled and said: "You really look down on people, how can I, Wu Shu, be the kind of timid person who is afraid of getting into trouble? If I miss something like this that will go down in history, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

Chen Jingke said happily: "That's great. You are welcome to join. We expect to start this plan after the Lantern Festival, so you can prepare in advance."

"Well, in two days I will take you to get to know everyone and familiarize yourself with the work in advance."

Wu Shu nodded and said: "Okay, I will follow the master's arrangements... Can you keep this book for me to read?"

Chen Jingke shook his head and said: "This book is for saints to read. There is also a manuscript and a large number of research manuscripts in the outer courtyard. You can browse at will."

Wu Shu's eyes flickered as if he was thinking about something, and after a while he said: "Do you want the saint to print this book and distribute it to the world?"

Chen Jingke said matter-of-factly: "Yes, the book has been compiled, so it will naturally be published and distributed throughout the world."

Wu Shu considered it and said: "I have a little suggestion, I don't know whether I should talk about it or not."

Chen Jingke suddenly became interested and said, "Oh, Mrs. Wu, if you have any suggestions, please feel free to tell me."

Wu Shudao: "This book can be shown to saints, and the saints should be informed in advance of the compilation of the dictionary, but it is best not to print and distribute this book."

Chen Jingke asked in confusion: "Why?"

Wu Shu said solemnly: "The release of Yuyun Notes to the world will definitely arouse the vigilance of the nobles and attract their attention to Zixiao Temple."

"If the secret of the dictionary is leaked by then, I'm afraid the nobles will take some bad actions and expose Guanli to unnecessary danger."

Chen Jingke immediately understood what she meant, and his expression became serious.

Never underestimate your opponent's sense of smell and methods. If the nobles know the existence of the dictionary, they are likely to take action.

Bookmaking and printing are different.

Sun Simiao also had something to say about printing. I improved printing for the purpose of printing Taoist scriptures. I was helpless when the emperor stole my teaching.

In fact, the first printed book was indeed Zixiaoguan's "Taomen Illustrated Manual", and it was not a lie.

The nobles did not have any doubts at all, they just complained about Li Shimin's good luck.

But compiling a dictionary cannot be explained by accidents. It is simply treating others as fools. The consequence of treating others as fools is often becoming a fool yourself.

The best way is to hold back and wait until the dictionary is compiled and then printed and distributed to the world as quickly as possible.

By the time the nobles realized that dictionaries had spread all over the world, it was too late even if they wanted to stop them.

Although it is inevitable to retaliate and vent your anger afterwards, whoever is afraid of you can come and do it.

After thinking about this, Chen Jingke sighed with emotion, Her Majesty the Queen is indeed worthy of being you.

"Okay, thank you Madam Wu for reminding me, otherwise it would be unknown if I made a big mistake."

Wu Shu was very happy to see that he had adopted his suggestion, and said: "As for the real person, don't forget that I am also one of the dictionary editors, and I should provide advice for our plan."

Chen Jingke smiled and said: "Haha... Okay, then I welcome you to give me more suggestions in the future."

At this time, Wu Chang came in with a tray and said: "The tea is ready. You have been chatting for so long. Let's drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat."

Wu Shu also smiled and said to Chen Jingke: "My little sister has no other strengths, except that she can make good tea. I really want to try it."

Chen Jingke smiled and said, "Oh, then I'm in a good mood."

As he spoke, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he said under Wu Chang's expectant gaze: "Well, the tea is good, not bad compared to the palace."

Wu Chang was very happy and said humbly: "Master, I'm so honored. How can I dare to compare with the craftsmanship of the people in the palace?"

The tea she brewed was indeed delicious. Chen Jingke couldn't help but take a few more sips before reluctantly putting it down.

Wu Chang quickly asked: "Why doesn't Zhenren stop drinking? But it doesn't suit the taste?"

Chen Jingke said apologetically: "No, I have a chronic illness and cannot be exposed to too much spices. I can only waste Sanniang's efforts."

"Ah?" Wu Chang was a little panicked and said, "I...I didn't know that was the case. I didn't mean to make tea."

Chen Jingke said: "If you don't know, don't blame me. If you want to blame me, you should blame me for not telling you in advance."

Wu Shu was also puzzled. Is there a stubborn disease? Why did the Taoist boy in the temple never tell him about it? And what kind of stubborn disease could not even be cured by Master Sun?

His mentality doesn't look like he's sick at all. Is he just used to it or does he have a good mentality?

But she didn't ask any more questions, since it was still a long time anyway, so she had plenty of time to understand.

After leaving Wu Shu, Chen Jingke went to see Sun Simiao.

I showed him the Yuyun note and gave Wu Shu’s suggestion.

After hearing this, Sun Simiao's eyes flashed with strange color, and he said: This lady Wu is so smart.

Chen Jingke didn't think much about it, he just smiled and said: "Well, Mrs. Wu is indeed very smart and knows a lot. Hey, I wish I had her brain."

After greeting Sun Simiao, he took his bodyguard to the palace.
