Zongwu: Give you a chance and get a 10,000 times critical hit return!

"Math problems? One hundred math problems?!"

"Is it true? One hundred thousand taels!"

"of course it's true!"

"Everyone knows that the Palace Gazette is the newspaper of Prince Jing's Palace. How could it be fake if it was printed and posted like this?"

The people of the entire Gusu city instantly burst into exclamations and great enthusiasm.

"What's the topic?"

"Where is the question? Copy it for me!"

Suzhou has always been prosperous and has produced many scholars.

Faced with a reward of 100,000 taels of silver, no one can sit still.

Even a great writer like Su Shi was very interested in this and got a copy of the question through his internal connections.

The reward of one hundred thousand taels was quite eye-catching and attracted everyone's attention.

"They're all sold out. Shopkeeper Bao from the south of the city wants another thousand copies!"

“The west side of the city is sold out too!”

At the government newspaper office, servants came running in one after another. The people in the newspaper office were so busy that they had no time to rest, but their faces were full of smiles.

“One hundred thousand copies!”

"In just one day, we sold 100,000 newspapers and earned 10,000 taels!"

Li Gefei was excited.

The daily newspaper sales of 100,000 copies are not even reached by the official newspaper!

Judging from the enthusiasm people have shown, the demand will be even greater.

"No wonder Prince Jing is so rich. He can make a fortune with any idea he has!" Li Qingzhao sighed.

From a long-term perspective, Zhao Wuxian's reward could be considered an extremely successful marketing strategy for the government newspaper.

It allowed the government newspaper to spread from Gusu to the south of the Yangtze River, and was also quickly delivered to various parts of the Song Dynasty by merchants from all over the country.

The Fubao leapt from a local newspaper to a major newspaper in the country, comparable to the official newspaper, crushing a number of private tabloids.

The value and influence it possesses cannot be achieved by force.

Chapter 438: Huang Su’s love, Demon Lord Bai Suzhen, and the Forbidden City duel are imminent!

Qianzhou!

White clouds are floating and mist is rising.

The winding path leads up to the towering mountains, which seem like a fairyland that is out of reach.

It was autumn.

In the early morning, dewdrops condense in the mountain stream, and the fresh air makes people feel refreshed.

The hazy mountains in the distance are shrouded in a veil.

Shadowy.

In the drifting clouds, it seems far away, sometimes near, sometimes close.

It's like a few strokes of light ink, smeared on the blue sky, and the details cannot be seen clearly.

A stone path winds down from the mountain, like a scene in a painting, with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

A sense of being in another world arises.

Valley Cottage!

"Peach plums and spring breeze, a glass of wine, and a rainy night in the rivers and lakes for ten years."

In a quiet and comfortable residence on the mountainside.

An elegant old man in his fifties holds a large wolf-hair brush in his hand.

He looked indifferent and carefree.

Wait until the pen tip starts to wave.

The whole person has a majestic aura.

A powerful force is bursting out.

Last year, Huang Tingjian was demoted to the position of Fuzhou Beijia and settled in Qianzhou because of the "Iron Dragon Claw Case".

However, Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and their followers believed that "Shenzong Shilu" contained many false accusations.

The former historians were ordered to stay in various places near the capital to be prepared for interrogation. More than a thousand items were excerpted and announced to them, saying that these had not been verified.

The sutras have been examined and reviewed, and they are all based on facts.

Huang Tingjian wrote in "Shenzong Shilu" that "using iron dragon claws to control the river is like child's play", so he was interrogated first.

Huang Tingjian replied: "Tingjian was an official in the northern capital at the time and witnessed this incident with his own eyes. It was indeed like a child's play at the time."

He answered all questions truthfully and without hesitation, and everyone who heard him praised him for his courage.

Huang Tingjian suffered another setback in his official career, but he did not become depressed. He opened a private school here and gave lectures.

There are more than ten students under his tutelage.

Cultivate virtue in Bashu and spread education in Qianrong.

"Teacher, teacher!"

Amid the sound of hurried footsteps.

A young man hurried in, his face flushed and full of excitement. He stopped when he saw Huang Tingjian writing.

Huang Tingjian remained unmoved.

The pen is still moving quickly.

Until he raised the tip of his pen and finally stopped.

"what do you want to say?"

Huang Tingjian put down the brush and ink, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.

The young man hurried forward and presented what he had in his hand.

"Teacher, Mr. Su from Gusu sent me the new issue of the government newspaper."

"Hmm? What's the news?"

Huang Tingjian put down his teacup and asked quickly.

When an official was sent to a distant place, the most important way for him to learn about state affairs was either through letters from close friends or the court bulletins.

Now Prince Jing's Mansion is suppressing the rebellion in Jiangnan.

The main force of the rebel army was destroyed in one battle and Lin'an was recaptured. The momentum was so huge that it attracted attention.

Officials from all sides are paying close attention.

The official newspaper issued by Prince Jing's Mansion became an important way for everyone to understand the movements of Prince Jing's Mansion and the progress of the rebellion suppression.

Huang Tingjian, Zhang Lei, Chao Buzhi and Qin Guan all studied under Su Shi and are collectively known as the "Four Scholars of Su's School."

Moreover, Huang Tingjian and Su Shi had a deep friendship, and they were both teacher and friend.

Among the poems and essays that were used to attack Su Shi in the Wudai Poetry Case, there were works by Su Shi and Huang Tingjian that responded to each other.

The situation was still unclear at the time. There were people who supported Su, but there were also many who opposed Su, and some who were eager to distance themselves from him.

Huang Tingjian, who had little influence as an official, could not do anything for Su Shi, and he also had to accept interrogation from others.

Huang Tingjian and Su Shi had never met each other at that time.

He could have easily said, "Su Shi and I are not in the same party" to avoid punishment.

But he insisted: "Su Shizhan is the most outstanding scholar. Su Shizhan is loyal to the emperor and patriotic."

Ten years ago, Huang Tingjian and Su Shi met for the first time in the capital.

Su and Huang entered into the happiest life of literary friendship in their lives.

Su and Huang worked together in Beijing for more than three years.

During their free time, they would gather together to preach and discuss art, exchange songs and gifts, discuss poetry and prose, appreciate books and paintings, and express their lifelong friendship with their teachers and friends.

According to incomplete statistics, there are nearly a hundred poems written in response to Su and Huang's poems.

All of them are elegant in tone, profound in meaning, similar in taste, and surprisingly focused and unified in theme, almost all of them revolve around friendship and the pursuit of nature.

Huang Tingjian, Qin Guan, Chao Buzhi, Zhang Lei and others gathered at Su Shi's school, worked together to make progress, responded to the cries of cranes, and followed their hearts.

Huang Tingjian's poetry and calligraphy were completely renewed and entered a new realm. People at that time began to compare him with Su Shi, and called them "Su Huang".

However, Huang Tingjian still maintained his original admiration for Su Shi and insisted on treating him as a disciple.

After Su Shi was demoted to Huidi, the two lost contact for a while.

After Su Shi was rescued by Zhao Wuxian and retired to Gusu, they were reconnected through the post station of Prince Jing's Mansion.

The young man held up the government newspaper and said excitedly, "Prince Jing has set out a hundred questions and is offering a reward of one hundred thousand silver taels to anyone who can answer them!"

"Oh? One hundred thousand silver taels and one hundred questions? Is Prince Jing trying to buy a horse with a huge sum of money?" Huang Tingjian asked curiously.

"may be!"

The young men's eyes flickered. People like Su Shi and Huang Tingjian were all people who had unhappy careers under Zhao Xu's administration.

Although Zhao Wuxian did not employ Su Shi, he ended his life of exile and allowed him to resign from his official position and live in seclusion in the countryside.

If Zhao Wuxian comes to power in the future, he may not necessarily employ Su Shi.

When Zhao Wuxian proposed the question and offered a reward, many scholars had the same idea as Huang Tingjian, believing that Zhao Wuxian was seeking talents in an alternative way.

The young man thought so too.

After the rebellion is quelled, Prince Jing's Mansion will control the Jiangnan area and establish its own separatist regime. Officials in the prefectures and counties under its jurisdiction will inevitably be replaced.
