Chapter 2300: Chapter 2297: Invasion of Characters
These people did not forget to go to the bookstore and draw tickets to buy dictionaries and simple phonetic books at half price.
Ye Muyu was unaware that there were people secretly admiring her.
She wasn’t particularly busy and didn’t need to leave the mansion, as the bookstore’s affairs were already spreading throughout Great Chu.
With Emperor Xuanming’s support, Yonghe Bookstore took just three months to spread across Great Chu.
Even people from the Southern Border and Beirong sent spies to buy relevant books and take them back.
But unfortunately, these countries have their own languages, and it is not easy to learn Chinese characters simply.
Because of this, it stirred up their rebellious sentiments, compelling them to learn Chinese characters to attempt to steal Great Chu’s secrets.
When Emperor Xuanming learned of this news.
It was already December, and snow began to fall outside the hall. The entire Imperial Palace donned a silver robe, appearing somewhat misty with its icy, snowy landscape, carrying a unique beauty.
After looking at the superstitions.
Emperor Xuanming lightly coughed.
At some point, his cheeks had touches of white hair, not obvious, but he lacked the vitality of summer.
Li Dejiang heard the cough and was extremely frightened.
He hurried forward, bending over to advise, “Emperor, it’s time for your medicine. This old servant personally warmed it, drinking it warm is good for your health.”
“Bring it over.” Emperor Xuanming frowned slightly and did not refuse. He cannot afford to fall ill; at least, he is unwilling to fall before seeing the empire rise, all previous efforts would be in vain.
Li Dejiang quickly brought the medicinal meal over, relieved only after seeing Emperor Xuanming drink it.
Emperor Xuanming was not that old yet, but being Emperor is too taxing and often not resting well naturally affects lifespan.
His body is not as resilient as that of young people, even if he doesn’t want to concede defeat, come winter, he is more susceptible to cold and illness than ordinary people.
“Go summon Minister Chu and Elder Zhong into the palace.” Emperor Xuanming sat in the warm hall, glancing at the snow falling outside, decisively chose to let others toil.
He needed some advice and didn’t want to think too much; after all, subjects are meant to solve his worries!
Elder Zhong prefers to stay in the Official Gazette Office.
After all, the news in the Official Gazette Office is most well-informed.
He fears that this winter is excessively cold, which may cause people to freeze to death, always concerned with livelihood, if there were truly an issue, it is there he would know the earliest.
Upon receiving the news, preparations to resolve it could commence.
Therefore, despite being surprised at being summoned to the palace, he wasn’t slow.
But Chu Heng was still outside the city.
By the time he entered the palace, Emperor Xuanming and Elder Zhong had already finished talking.
Indeed, Elder Zhong was sitting on the bestowed chair, like Emperor Xuanming, holding several books in his hands, reading.
Chu Heng entered, raised his hand in salute, “I greet the Emperor.”
“Come, sit.” Emperor Xuanming put down the book in his hand, then looked up at him.
“How is the training going?”
“Against Beirong’s cavalry, at least evenly matched. Beirong’s elite cavalry units have not surfaced in a long time; I cannot guarantee, but based on previous intelligence, as long as Beirong’s elite cavalry has not suddenly made great progress, it should not pose too great a threat.” Chu Heng spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, not modest in his words, yet very meticulous and rationally analyzed.
Emperor Xuanming appreciated his straightforwardness. The civil officials of the Imperial Court mostly enjoyed maneuvering for benefits and would speak plainly when pursuing interests, forcing him, the Emperor.
However, when it truly concerned national matters, they were indecisive and hesitant.
