Inside the Royal Palace of Korea, in Princess Honglian’s annex.

At this moment, Guren was sitting boredly in the pavilion in the princess's villa, dazing there in a daze, and playing with the brush she used to draw between her nose and lips.

On the stone table in the pavilion are scattered a pile of bamboo slips and messy cloth smeared with red lotus.

"your Highness...your Highness......"

Honglian's little maid ran over here at a trot with a lot of things in her arms.

Bada~!

The writing brush fell from under the startled Honglian's nose to the stone table, splashing little ink marks on the cloth and letters.

Honglian turned to look at the little maid and scolded:"What happened? You are in a hurry."

The little maid ran to Honglian and said aggrievedly:

"Someone outside the palace brought in some interesting things. Let me bring them to you, Your Highness."

"Interesting stuff? Honglian's attention was instantly diverted and she asked curiously:"What is it?" Where?"

For Guren, who is still childish, now is the age when she likes to have fun the most.

So after hearing the little maid say that there was something fun and interesting, she instantly forgot her unhappiness.

The little maid hurriedly walked over Next to Honglian, after cleaning the stone table, she placed a bunch of things in her arms in front of Princess Honglian.

Then the little maid said charmingly:

"There is a new store [Qingpingzhai] opened in Xinzheng City. These books and scrolls were bought from that store and specially given to Her Royal Highness Princess Honglian."

"what the hell? Honglian looked through the books and scrolls that the maid had just put down with some disappointment,"Although the material is a bit novel, aren't these still books?""

"No, Your Highness Princess!"The little maid quickly opened a scroll and unfolded the paintings inside in front of Honglian.

Then she boasted:"The paintings sold by this [Qingpingzhai] are so real and beautiful."

"If people outside the palace hadn't used your identity as Princess Honglian, they might not be able to grab these scrolls."

Looking at the vivid flower and bird paintings on the scroll in front of her, Princess Honglian's originally indifferent expression suddenly became surprised,"This...The flowers and birds on this scroll......The painting is so realistic and expressive."

Then Princess Honglian snatched the scroll from the hand of the maid and examined it carefully.

After a long time, Princess Honglian exclaimed:"Awesome~Awesome~! This princess has never seen such a beautiful painting."

After Princess Honglian felt that this scroll of flower and bird paintings was almost done, she directly pushed the scroll to the little maid, and then opened another scroll to enjoy it.

Landscape painting and figure painting, these are the other two scrolls brought by the little maid.

Landscape painting is red Lian just glanced at it, but Hong Lian was fascinated by the character painting,"Who is the person painted in this painting?" Why does it feel like a real person has been imprinted on it?"

The little maid poked her little head and glanced at the figure painting next to Honglian, and shook her head in confusion,"I don't know!"

"But I heard from people outside the palace that someone in Xinzheng paid a lot of money to ask the owner of Qingpingzhai to paint his portrait."

"After the portrait was drawn, it looked exactly like him."

The little maid made an exaggerated gesture cutely,"The man was so satisfied with the portrait that he immediately rewarded the owner of [Qingpingzhai] with hundreds of gold coins."

Honglian was very surprised when she heard this!

After she woke up, Honglian immediately pulled the little maid and walked outside the Han Palace:"Let's go to [Qingpingzhai] to have a look."

The little maid was stunned,"Your Highness Princess,...your Highness...What are you doing at [Qingpingzhai]?"

"Of course, I asked the little boss of [Qingpingzhai] to draw a portrait for me. Hong Lian asked the little maid in a charming manner,"What?" Am I not beautiful, my princess?"

"Isn't this princess' appearance worthy of being painted on a scroll as a souvenir?"

"Of course the princess is beautiful!"The little maid nodded hurriedly,"Of course the princess's appearance must be recorded."...

Almost at the same time, in the palace where Mrs. Mingzhu of the Han Palace was located.

Wearing a purple court dress, a platinum necklace around her neck, and a pearl hosta on her head, Lady Mingzhu is looking at a figure painting in front of her with a curious look on her face.

"interesting!"Mrs. Mingzhu closed the scroll and showed an interested expression,"I didn't expect that such an interesting painter would appear in Xinzheng City."

"Chen Hao, it’s incredible that a fifteen-year-old boy has such superb painting skills."

"There is also this kind of paper that can carry text and paintings. I really don’t know what the purpose of his coming to Xinzheng is?"

Ms. Mingzhu showed a thoughtful look.

Then she frowned and shouted outside:"Come here!"

"What are your orders, madam?"

Soon a maid came to Mrs. Mingzhu's side, lowered her head and asked respectfully.

"Make arrangements, I want to meet the painter named Chen Hao."Ms. Mingzhu ordered without hesitation:"Just say that I want him to draw a portrait for me."

"yes!"

The maid hurriedly responded......

Zhang Mansion, where the Prime Minister of Korea is located.

After finishing his official duties for the day, Zhang Kai was currently kneeling on his desk and looking through the various books purchased from [Qingpingzhai].

Compared with the various paintings circulated in [Qingpingzhai], Kaifang paid more attention to the books in it.

After a long time, he put down the book in his hand and asked Zhang Liang, who was kneeling respectfully opposite him:"Zifang, what do you think of these new books?"

Zhang Liang pondered for a moment, and then said:"Paper The emergence of , making written records more convenient"

"For various factions, the emergence of paper is even more important. Such easily disseminated books can increase the influence of their teachings"

"Especially for Confucians."

Having said this, Zhang Liang stopped talking and looked at his grandfather carefully.

"That's right!"Kaidi stroked his beard with a heavy heart, and said with some worry:"It's just that such an important thing suddenly appeared in our Korea. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."

"grandfather means......"

Zhang Liang asked tentatively,"Is there anyone in South Korea who has the idea of ​​making paper?"

"They don't dare to do this yet!"When Zhang Zhang said this, he showed a heavy power,"If those people don't want all the schools of thought to join forces to deal with them, they will never put their ideas on the paper."

"The emergence of paper is a rare opportunity for various schools of thought, but they will never allow anyone to desecrate such a sacred object as paper."

"Grandpa, what do you mean?"Zhang Liang was confused.

He stood up worriedly and sighed helplessly:"After the news of the appearance of the paper spreads, it will inevitably attract people from various sects and schools to come to Korea."

"The whole of Korea will be lively by then......"......
