Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 98 Punctuation
Just looking at the cover and the first page of the inside page, Ying Zheng was able to find many problems.

The texture of the paper is absolutely top-notch, and the effect of text printing is not twice as good as that of the bamboo slips.

Especially the weight, you have to know that the words carved on a catty of bamboo slips are comparable to the words on the page in front of you.

If all the memorials could be written like this, Ying Zheng's daily workload would definitely be reduced exponentially!

He doesn't have to look through hundreds of pounds of memorials every day to read the memorials he wants!

"Well, yes, keep up the good work, let's go!" Zhao Yi just flipped through it casually, nodded, and handed the completed book to Wang Chi. For him, this kind of book is just an ordinary product for later generations, and there is nothing to make a fuss about. .

But Zhao Yi is not rare, but Ying Zheng is very rare. Before Wang Chi can pick it up, Ying Zheng has snatched the book from Zhao Yi's hand, and opened his eyes wide.

"Hahaha... Okay, this is really good, this word, this paper, hahaha..."

"I didn't expect that papermaking and printing techniques are so miraculous that they can print such exquisite books!"

"I really lived for nothing for so many years, I didn't know there are such miraculous things in this world!"

Holding the book in his hand, Ying Zheng's eyes were greedy, like a beast seeing delicious food, so Wang Chi didn't even dare to ask for the book back.

"Huh?" Ying Zheng looked at it, frowned suddenly, looked up at Zhao Yi, pointed to the content on the book and asked, "Prince, what are these dots and circles on this book? Why are there such things?" many?"

Dot circle?Zhao Yi was a little puzzled by the question, and when he followed Ying Zheng's fingers, he suddenly understood.

It turned out that what Ying Zheng was referring to was the punctuation marks on the sentence breaks in the book. What a fuss, Zhao Yi rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"Father, it's my son who is dull. I don't know how to break sentences when I read a book, so I use these circles to break the sentences, so that my son can read..." Zhao Yi explained casually, naturally he would not explain these punctuation points to Ying Zheng The magic of symbols.

"That's it!" Ying Zheng nodded slowly and stared at "The Story of the Stone" again. He pondered it carefully for a long time. His eyes quickly became brighter, obviously realizing the beauty of these inconspicuous circles.

With these circles and dots, it is obvious that when reading, you can clearly feel that it doesn't take so much effort to read, and it is easy to comprehend the deep meaning contained in each sentence while reading.

It is no longer necessary to segment sentences by yourself when reading books as before, especially when reviewing memorials, you don’t have to think about whether there are mistakes in sentence segmentation in memorials.

"Okay, good stuff, okay, hahaha..." Ying Zheng praised repeatedly, and Wang Chi also echoed beside him, looking like a dog leg.

"Hehe..." Zhao Yi couldn't complain, so he could only give a hehe...

[Rare and strange, but Daqin's books really must have these punctuation marks, otherwise it would be laborious to read the memorial every time! 】

[Once you have these punctuation marks, you don't have to guess and guess when reading books. It will be much more convenient for popularizing education for poor scholars. Those obscure ancient books can also retain the original deep meaning to the greatest extent. 】

[The private goods hidden in the family are not worth mentioning in front of the punctuation marks...]

Zhao Yi's voice, hearing Ying Zheng's heart, made Ying Zheng feel enlightened in an instant, and immediately wanted to understand many things.

Although the classics of the aristocratic family flow out every year, few people can understand those classics, because they don't know how to break sentences, and they can't read them fluently, let alone figure out the meaning.

And with these punctuation marks, you can easily understand the deep meaning in them, and when you look at them again, naturally as long as you are a scholar, you can clearly understand the meaning in them.

Um!Ying Zheng nodded again and again, and then looked at Zhao Yi, and suddenly changed again.

This son of mine is truly extraordinary. He is truly blessed by God and the chosen one given to him by God!
Thinking about it this way, Ying Zheng felt that Zhao Yi was the best candidate for the crown prince and his best heir.

But Zhao Yi's voice at the moment has not stopped.

[Could it be that some officials, knowing that it is easy to cause confusion, deliberately wrote some incomprehensible memorials? 】

[After all, even if it is a classic handed down by a sage, different people will have different meanings after punctuating sentences in different situations. 】

[This is only about learning. If someone deliberately takes the content of the old things and misinterprets the content of the old things in government and military affairs, hiss... Then even if I am the prince now, it may be easy to be misinterpreted and killed by others! 】

[No, I must take precautions before they happen, but how can I tell the old man this? 】

Um!Ying Zheng was extremely shocked, and he took Zhao Yi's worry deeply.

Indeed, as Zhao Yi thought, the sage's words were misinterpreted in sentences, and it didn't hurt at all. After all, it was just learning.

But if the decree he approved is misunderstood, it will be a big trouble, especially in the will, once it is misinterpreted, it will be a world of difference, so we have to guard against it!
Therefore, these punctuation marks must be promoted immediately, so that no one can misinterpret their meaning, and no one can misinterpret the meaning of their decrees when they are uploaded and handed down.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng hated not being able to kiss Zhao Yi. Such an important matter was solved lightly by his punctuation marks. Zhao Yi, the prince, is simply too kind!

"Prince, tell me about these punctuation marks." Ying Zheng gave orders to Zhao Yi, and when it was time to show off, he still had to show off.

Seeing Wang Chi still standing there stupidly, staring eagerly at the book in his hand, Ying Zheng frowned, "Wang Chi, right? Hurry up and go back to your printing shop and do your job well!"

"Since the prince has entrusted you with such an important matter, you must work hard for the prince. If you really do well, I will give you an official title. Go!"

Wang Chi's eyes lit up as soon as he heard that he was promoted to a noble, and he really had a future after listening to the prince's words. The emperor is about to add an official to himself!
Wang Chi immediately bowed to Yingzheng Natou, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the grassroots will do their best to do a good job for the prince!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yi rolled his eyes again, the old man is not authentic, in front of his own face, he has already started poaching his own corner!
So Zhao Yi hurriedly waved his hands at Wang Chi, as if chasing flies away, "Hurry up, hurry up, if anything goes wrong in the printing workshop, I will ask for you!"

Wang Chi's expression froze, he got up quickly, bowed to Ying Zheng again, and then quickly ran across the courtyard.

Then, Zhao Yi dryly explained punctuation marks to Ying Zheng. He did not explain it carefully, but even so, Ying Zheng benefited a lot and nodded repeatedly.
