At that time, the "History of the Yuan" was written by Song Lian, and it took nearly a year to write, with a total of 210 volumes. It took less than a year to write a dynasty, which was not hasty, but very hasty, so that there were inevitably too many deficiencies.

What was the situation like?

Just experienced the war, the world has just been calmed down, the information mastered by the imperial court is very incomplete, and even if it has the information, there are many inconsistencies, the same place name, the name of the person has a different place, the time is in a hurry, and the content is incomplete, the content is duplicated and so on.

In short, the Yuan History is full of questions.

All Hanlin knew that the "History of the Yuan" should be rebuilt, and after 200 years of collection in the Ming Dynasty, the corresponding information was already very complete, but why has it not been rebuilt?

Because this is a tedious project, it will take a long time. If there is no ten or eight years, don't think about rewriting the "Yuan History". This is to press Luo Xin in the Hanlin Academy and prevent him from participating in the government, Luo Xin understands Xu Jie's psychology very well.

Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing are also erudite people, so they naturally know the difficulties of rebuilding the "History of the Yuan", how many decades are there in their lives? When ten years pass, I don't know how many opportunities I will miss, and the hearts of the two people are full of gloom, only to feel that the sun and moon are dull and the future is bleak. Zhou Yu was already accustomed to looking at Luo Xin, although Xu Shixing did not have this habit, but he admired Luo Xin's knowledge very much in his heart, so he couldn't help but look at Luo Xin.

Luo Xin took over the task calmly, waiting for the three of them to leave Zhang Juzheng's room, and on the way back, Xu Shixing wanted to speak and stopped, but Zhou Yu, who was familiar with Luo Xin, couldn't help it.

"No, how can you take on this task? Not to mention that there are only three of us, even if all the people of the entire Hanlin Academy are gathered, it is impossible to complete this task without three or five years. ”

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and bowed deeply to Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing. Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing hurriedly dodged and said:

"No, what are you doing here?"

Luo Xin said softly: "It's my two brothers. ”

Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing both knew about the matter between Luo Xin and Xu Jie, in fact, no one in the court did not know, and when they heard Luo Xin's words at this time, the two such smart people naturally understood the cause and effect in an instant.

"Then you shouldn't say yes." Xu Shixing said angrily: "Could it be that he Xu Jie, can cover the sky with one hand?" ”

"But ......" Luo Xin's face showed a smile: "It is a great honor to be able to complete the "Yuan History", and it will leave a name in history, don't the two brothers want this glory?" ”

"Of course I want to, but ...... Ten years! No, it will take at least ten years! How many decades do we have? ”

"It won't take that long!"

Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing's footsteps were stunned, and they looked at Luo Xin with burning eyes and said, "No, you ...... What does that mean? ”

"Let's not sell it first." Luo Xin smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when the time comes." ”

Xu Shixing didn't know Luo Xin well enough, but Zhou Yu knew that Luo Xin never lied, so he asked with a bright eye:

"No, how much time do you think we need?"

"A year." Luo Xin said confidently.

"One year ......"

Xu Shixing's mouth grew up, and his eyes were completely incredulous. But Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, he believed Luo Xin without any doubt, Luo Xin said that it was one year, that is, one year.

"Really?" Xu Shixing asked uneasily.

"Don't worry!" Luo Xin said confidently: "You will know in a month. ”

"Why a month?" Zhou Yu also asked curiously.

"Because I need to send someone to Yanglin County to get some information."

Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing reacted immediately, and the two of them asked almost in unison, "You have already prepared to rebuild the "Yuan History" for a long time?" To what extent? ”

"You'll know when the time comes!" Luo Xin smiled mysteriously: "From tomorrow, we will first classify and sort out the Yuanmeng archives in the library, and then we will be able to speed faster." ”

"Good!"

Zhou Yu and Xu Shixing immediately became energetic, if the three of them could really rebuild the "Yuan History" within a year, this would not only be an honor that would go down in history, but also a legend that would be praised by future generations. It is of great benefit to their future careers.

Therefore, as soon as they arrived at the Hanlin Courtyard the next day, they took dry food and water and plunged into the Yuanmeng archives in the library. The three people stood outside the door for a full quarter of an hour before they walked in, in addition to the tables and chairs in the warehouse, the shelves were almost full of bookshelves in the warehouse, and the shelves were full of old and yellowed books and scrolls, so that the three people had a feeling that they were about to uncover the dusty history.

"Hiss......"

The three of them couldn't help but gasp, even Luo Xin was no exception. Even if Luo Xinzhong had been prepared for a long time, he was a little stupid at this time.

Luo Xin was indeed well prepared, and when he was still in Shanglin Village, he began to transcribe the articles in his memory, including the Qing Dynasty's supplementation and reconstruction of the Yuan history. It was written over decades over several generations, and the results were abundant.

For example, Shao Yuanping's "Yuan History Class Edition", Wei Yuan's "Yuan History New Edition", Hong Jun's "Yuan History Translation Supplement", Zeng Lian's "Yuan Book", Tu Ji's "Mughal Historical Records", etc.; There is also the "Secret History of the Yuan Dynasty" compiled from the "Yongle Canon". These books have made a lot of additions to the "History of the Yuan", but there are still many omissions. It was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China that Ke Shaoxen wrote the "History of the New Yuan Dynasty".

With these achievements, Luo Xin has enough confidence that he will be able to rebuild the "Yuan History" in a year, because he is standing on the shoulders of giants, and he is not yet a giant.

However, there must be a difference between the information obtained by these giants at the beginning and the information in the Ming Dynasty library today, and what Luo Xin has to do is only to further supplement them, and then synthesize the classics of those giants into a "Yuan History", which is much simpler.

Luo Xin took a breath and said: "A month's time, we only have one month to classify the classics here in detail, to ensure that we can find any information we want to find at that time." A month later, we began to rewrite the History of the Yuan. ”

After returning home yesterday, Luo Xin had already asked Lu Zhonglian to go to Yanglin County today to transport his big box back, and Lu Zhonglian had already left the capital early this morning. Therefore, if it is said to be a month, I am afraid that it will not take twenty days for Lu Zhonglian to return to the capital, leaving not much time for the three of them.
