"Your Majesty?" When I saw the person who came down with Li Xiu, Cui Gan and the other three hiding in the street carriage could not help but show a shocked expression. After all, Li Shimin would not leave the palace easily, but now he came here with Li Xiu, which is really surprising.

After Li Shimin got off the carriage, guards immediately took advantage of the defense around him, and then escorted Li Shimin and Li Xiu into the building being built. Although the building has not been completed, the rooms in some places have been capped, so you can go in and visit it.

Watching Li Shimin and Li Xiu enter the brick building, Cui Gan and the other two in the carriage fell silent. After a while, Cui Gan said, "Even Your Majesty is here, it seems that this place is more important than we imagined!"

"Check! You must find out clearly! In addition, I suddenly thought that Li Xiu built all the here with bricks. I am afraid that we will set fires again. It seems that the things placed inside should be more afraid of fire. In this way, the books meet this condition very well, but what is he doing for storing books here?" Zheng Zhong said at the end, his face also showed a confused expression.

"Is this the case? If the printing press wants to print a large number of books, it will definitely need to store the printed books in the place. Could it be that this is the printing press's warehouse?" Cui Fu'an also guessed at this time.

"Impossible. If it were just a warehouse, how could Li Xiu spend so much energy, and even His Majesty came in person? In addition, the seal and bookstore are obviously in the imperial city, and the warehouse is set up in the imperial city, wouldn't it be safer? Is it necessary to run outside the imperial city?" Cui Gan immediately denied Cui Fu'an's idea.

"Yes, Your Majesty and Li Xiu will never be here for no reason. There must be something we don't know about here, so we must find out clearly. But what I have a headache now is where should I start checking?" Zheng Zhong said again at this time. At the end of the conversation, a headache appeared on his face. Now he was extremely eager to figure out the purpose of this place, but this is probably not an easy task.

"Yes, since this place is so important, even Mr. Cui has not found any useful information before. I'm afraid that Li Xiu was deliberately blocking the news. In addition to him and His Majesty, only Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and other few people know that it is probably harder to tell the truth from these people than climbing the sky." Cui Fu'an nodded with conscientiously when he heard Zheng Zhong's words.

"Haha, there is actually no way. It's just that I didn't dare to make up my mind before, but now that even His Majesty is here, it's worth it no matter what the price it pays. I believe he will definitely know!" Cui Gan said the last time, especially when he mentioned the title of "he", he couldn't help but glance at the direction of the imperial city, and a very complicated look appeared in his eyes.

At the same time, Li Xiu, not far away, was introducing the unfinished building to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was also very excited to see it. However, because there were too many people around, they all knew that they did not mention the name of the building. Even when Li Xiu introduced the functions of each room, he tried his best to let the people around him retreat so as not to reveal the news.

After visiting the entire building, Li Xiu then accompanied Li Shimin back to the carriage, but at this time they did not notice that a carriage that was still on the corner of the street had disappeared.

"Li Xiu, this library is built quite fast, but you still need to pay attention to fire prevention. After all, everything is filled with books, and a little spark can be burned into a ball!" On the carriage, Li Shimin reminded Li Xiu again.

That's right, the building built by Li Xiu is used to open a library for reading. Because of the lesson that the book printing house was burned before, he attached great importance to fire prevention and abandoned the traditional wooden house and changed it to a full brick structure. After all, bricks and tiles are not so easy to light.

"Don't worry, your Majesty will have a special statement in the future, such as prohibiting the entry of flints, etc. In addition, there is a small pond behind the library, so even if there is a fire in the future, it will be convenient for rescue." Li Xiu smiled and said, in fact, although the library has hidden dangers of fire, the probability is not very high. It is mainly to prevent people with ulterior motives from setting fires again, so he made so many preparations in advance.

"Well, this library will be under the jurisdiction of the Imperial College in the future, so that the guards on the Imperial College can be divided into some places, and in addition, the students in the prison will also be convenient for borrowing books." Li Shimin nodded at this time.

"If the library can be placed in Chang'an, if it is promoted to the public in the future, libraries in various places can also be placed under the name of public schools in various prefectures. After all, most people who go to public schools are ordinary children. Compared with those children of aristocratic families, they are the people who need libraries the most!" Li Xiu nodded at this time.

The so-called public schools are actually schools opened by the court. For example, the provincial government is called the public schools, the lower-level county town is called the county schools, and even the rural schools are also there. These can all be called public schools. Generally, children from ordinary families want to change their destiny, the most likely thing to achieve is to study. However, because the Tang Dynasty invested in education, the conditions of public schools were not comparable to those of the aristocratic families, and they could not even meet the most basic books, so their knowledge was naturally much worse than that of the children of aristocratic families.

"That's right. The idea of ​​this library is really wonderful. It can make more books with more people, and the printing house does not have to print too many books. Why can't such a method be thought of before?" Li Shimin clapped his hands again and exclaimed. He almost fully supported the idea of ​​this library, and even hoped that Li Xiu would think of some similar methods.

"I used to think that it was because the books were too expensive, and no one would be willing to lend them to others. But now that the printing technology is released, the cost of books has dropped greatly. Even if the books are lent out and broken, it can be easily supplemented." Li Xiu explained with a smile at this time. The library's method was designed specifically for the aristocratic family. However, he didn't want to force it too much in the past to avoid the aristocratic family being killed. However, now he has no such concern.

Li Shimin nodded deeply about Li Xiu's explanation. During this period, he slowly walked out of the death of Empress Changsun. Moreover, the provocation of the aristocratic family gave him a new goal, so he was full of motivation.

Seeing Li Shimin's excited look, Li Xiu was also happy, but then he suddenly thought of Li Chengqian again, but he couldn't help but sigh. Compared to Li Shimin, the situation on Li Chengqian was really worrying.
