After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 62: Reorganize the government system?

The atmosphere in the Golden Palace remained tense.

The death of Minister of Revenue Wei Taihe made many officials tremble in their hearts!
Especially those officials related to the aristocratic families, they seemed indifferent to this matter, which made them begin to hesitate whether to continue to favor the aristocratic families or simply turn to His Majesty!

"after all."

"If Chen Huaixin is recruited."

"Whether there is still a future for the aristocratic families, or whether we can live to see that future, is hard to say!"

The butcher knife that Ji Qingluo raised has begun to show results.

As for those ministers who had already recognized Chen Huaixin and chose to stand on the same side as His Majesty, there would not be so much hesitation.

Especially Prime Minister Wang Qianhe.

He looked at the newspaper that Chen Huaixin presented to him, his face full of amazement!

"This method!"

“Exquisite!”

"It's a pity that there aren't that many literate people in my country."

"Or you can start the newspaper together!"

Wang Qianhe felt helpless.

Even the future Yuguo only started to launch this kind of thing more than four years after it was founded in the school!
Nowadays, most of the lower-class people in Chengguo are illiterate, and most of those who can read and write are related to aristocratic families!
If they really followed suit and founded a newspaper, it would be unknown what the contents of the newspaper would be tampered with by the aristocratic families with the help of their scholars!
It may even be called second-rate, third-rate, or even not-so-high-end in the future!
"but."

"What are comic strips, then?"

Wang Qianhe sighed and turned his attention to another thing.

Of course he knew about novels. Some scholars wrote love stories or stories about gods and ghosts to make a living, and these stories were quite popular among the people.

But this comic strip... this is the first time he has heard of it!
"It should be related to the painting of Chen Huaixin conquering Tongguan without bloodshed!"

Ji Changling's voice also rang out at this time.

They all still remember the method of using hot air balloons to spread the paintings at that time. Some of the content on the paintings was even connected, so it didn't seem wrong to call it a comic strip!

"If it's really this thing."

“That’s even for the illiterate people.”

“It’s also easy to understand the content!”

"This Chen Huaixin... is creating so-called entertainment for the people?!"

Wang Qianhe suddenly understood!
But before this, no one had ever paid attention to whether the common people needed any entertainment, because for many people, the common people only needed to work in the fields, while the powerful and wealthy had their own enjoyment!
But after seeing the grand occasion of the martial arts examination, Chen Huaixin immediately realized that the people needed that kind of entertainment satisfaction!

It’s like the wealthy and powerful never pay attention to the people’s farming, but he is willing to take risks for the people and constantly improve the farming tools and methods!
"Chen Huaixin... is truly unique!"

【After a brief explanation. 】

[The Minister of Revenue immediately understood what a comic strip was! ]

[As for Chen Huaixin's request that the painting style be the same as that of the Battle of Tongguan, the Minister of Revenue did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed.]

【"because."】

[“The painting of the Battle of Tongguan at that time.”]

[“It is still circulating among the people.”]

[“Some painters imitated and sold the original paintings in order to make money to support their families, so it is not difficult to find the right person!”]

[The Minister of Revenue nodded and said.]

[He knew about the painting of the Battle of Tongguan, but he didn't know that his Majesty named it a comic strip, and he didn't think about delving into it. ]

【But now. 】

【After being brought up by Chen Huaixin. 】

[He immediately saw that there was a huge market here! ]

【Even comic strips are more popular than novels and newspapers because they are easy to understand!】【"As for the content."】

[“It doesn’t need to be that complicated.”]

[“Aren’t there some popular novels from the previous period? Just turn them into comic strips.”]

[“As for the new novel, remember to use new punctuation in it, so that students can understand it!”]

【Chen Huaixin said in an admonishing manner.】

[This sentence reading, that is, punctuation marks, was taught by him when the school was first established. ]

[Otherwise, if students are separated from their teachers, they will not know how to read and write, or they may end up with the Six Classics being all mine, or me annotating the Six Classics, which will be troublesome.]

[After all, he still has to carry out school reforms in the future. Some subjects cannot be interpreted according to one's own ideas like articles, but must be correct word by word! ]

[And the Minister of Finance suddenly realized that this novel should have the smallest audience, but in fact, His Majesty wanted to promote punctuation on a wider scale, so he launched it together with newspapers and comic strips! ]

【"I obey the decree!"】

【October, the sixth year of Jingping.】

[Chen Huaixin rarely drinks tea with Ji Changwei in the harem. ]

[Their eldest son is now two and a half years old and is walking around in the garden under the care of a maid.]

【And Chen Huaixin's gaze stayed on Ji Changwei.】

[“The novel you wrote recently should be almost finished.”]

【Chen Huaixin took a sip of tea and spoke.】

[After learning about the novel, newspaper, and comic book, Ji Changwei immediately became interested and approached him directly, asking if he could also write a novel.]

[“Before I got married, I liked reading folk novels.”]

[“I’ve seen a lot.”]

【“I wanted to write it.”】

[“It’s just that I never had the time and energy before.”]

[“Now that I have this opportunity, and can help Your Majesty, I am extremely happy.”]

[“I wonder if Your Majesty would allow me to fulfill my original wish?”]

[Ji Changwei said this to Chen Huaixin.]

[Chen Huaixin would naturally not refuse.]

[After reading the ghost stories written by Ji Changwei, he also thought they were quite good. Whenever Ji Changwei was lost in thought, he would use the stories in his mind to talk to her in his spare time. This seemed to inspire Ji Changwei to continue writing furiously.]

【And this communication. 】

[Not only did it make their relationship more harmonious, but it also allowed the ghost story to be completed.]

【"perhaps."】

【“This story written by the Queen.”】

[“It will be the first new novel since the founding of my country.”]

【Chen Huaixin smiled.】

[Ji Changwei's face was a little shy, but her eyes were full of anticipation.]

[She loves reading novels, and she wrote a novel herself. What a wonderful thing! ]

[She had a smile on her face as she chatted with Chen Huaixin about family matters, and occasionally talked about some matters in the court.]

【“I heard it.”】

[“Your Majesty seems to be planning to reorganize the government system?!”]
