Chapter 15: Huaxia Library - Huaxia Historical District
Gao Yangjun pulled Tu Ying and took Qin Muen to the National Library in a hurry, Gao Yangjun looked at the library that was more luxurious than the palace and several times larger than the palace and said, "It seems that my father attaches great importance to education."
"Yes, the king said that nothing can be poor in education. The king is a great king," Qin Muen nodded, looked at Gao Yangjun and said
Gao Yangjun secretly thought, fortunately, my father built a good foundation for me and laid a good foundation, otherwise it would be impossible for me to unify this Lithuania in a short period of time. And I know that almost all the people know the Chinese language and are proficient in at least 500 simplified Chinese characters, and these people will be the capital of my future in Europe. The 250,000 literate citizens are terrible to think about in such an era. Even if I had a system, I'm afraid it would take ten years to civilize the people.
Gao Yangjun felt the greatness of the old king more and more. Gao Yangjun walked into the library with Tu Ying and Qin Muen. Gao Yangjun pretended to be casual as he walked, "Muen, did your father take you to the library?" ”
Qin Muen shook his head: "No, my knowledge was taught by the old king himself, and the king passed away before the national library could be opened."
Gao Yangjun said in his heart, It's okay, it's okay, otherwise I won't be able to explain it when he sees that the books in the library are different. Since my father didn't open it, then I'll open it.
"Let's go to the Huaxia Historical District first to see what books my father has collected," Gao Yangjun casually pointed to the Huaxia Historical District and said.
"Yes, Princess," they both nodded
The books included here in the Huaxia Historical District are famous for: Sima Qian's first general history of China. It records the history of more than 3,000 years from the era of the Yellow Emperor in ancient legends to the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
There is the "Warring States Policy", which mainly describes the political ideas and strategies of the Zongheng family in the Warring States period, and shows the historical characteristics and social features of the Warring States period, the author of this book is not one person, the book was not written for a while, and even most of the authors of the Chinese chapter of the book did not leave a name. It was compiled into 33 articles by Liu Xiang at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, and the title of the book was also drafted by Liu Xiang. Moreover, Liu Xiang also wrote a biographical history book about the deeds of ancient Chinese women, "The Biography of the Daughters", which is also in this list.
There is the Eastern Han Dynasty historian Ban Gu (Ban Chao's elder brother) compiled, his sister collated, completed the eight tables, and disseminated the "Book of Han". The Book of Han, also known as the Book of the Former Han Dynasty, starts from the first year of Emperor Gao of the Han Taizu in the Western Han Dynasty to the fourth year of Emperor Mangdi of the New Dynasty, a total of 230 years of history.
There is the "Book of the Later Han" compiled by Fan Ye in the Liu and Song dynasties of the Southern Dynasty. The Book of the Later Han Dynasty records the 195-year history of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty from Liu Xiu to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.
There is the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" compiled by Chen Shou during the Western Jin Dynasty, which records the history of the Three Kingdoms era in China. At the same time, it is also one of the highest-rated "first four histories" in the 24 histories. Of course, the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" in the library are now separated, namely "Wei Zhi", "Shu Zhi", and "Wu Zhi".
Gao Yangjun saw that "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was separated, and sent someone to call Li Xueru over
"Li Qing, this "Wei Zhi", "Shu Zhi", and "Wu Zhi", I plan to order you to arrange personnel to integrate them into one, and the title of the book is "Three Kingdoms".
Li Xueru trembled with excitement, thinking in his heart: This matter arranged by the princess is a major event that will leave a name in history, and in the future, the history books will definitely record that Li Xueru presided over the sorting out of the "Three Kingdoms". He hurriedly replied:
"Princess, leave this matter to the minister, the minister will definitely live up to the princess's expectations."
"Well, at this time, when my enthronement ceremony is over, you can start arranging for someone to do it, Li Qing would like to accompany us to browse this library?"
"No need, princess, the minister still has to arrange the affairs of the enthronement ceremony, please forgive the princess" Li Xueru refused Gao Yangjun's invitation
"It's okay, then you can go first. This princess will browse again," Gao Yangjun said with a wave of his hand
"The minister retired."
Gao Yangjun picked up "Wei Zhi" and glanced at it, and then asked Tu Ying and Qin Muen:
"Aren't you two going to take a look?"
"We'll wait for Master Li to sort it out and then look at it," Tu Ying and Qin Muen said in unison
Gao Yangjun nodded and continued to browse
There is also the "Book of Jin" co-authored by 21 people including Tang Fang Xuanling. From the early years of Sima Yi in the Three Kingdoms period, to the second year of Emperor Gong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Liu Yu abolished the Jin Emperor and established himself, and ended with the Song Dynasty and Jin.
The historical books of the Southern and Northern Dynasties of China collected here in the Huaxia Historical Area include: the Book of Song written by Shen Yue of the Southern Liang Dynasty; The Book of Southern Qi written by Liang Xiaozi; Yao Cha, the Book of Liang written by Yao Silian and his son; The "Book of Chen" written by Tang Yao Silian and the "History of the South" written by Tang Li Yanshou, the "History of the South" recorded the 170-year history of the Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen kingdoms of the Southern Dynasties.
In the Northern Dynasties, there were: the Book of Wei written by Wei Shu of the Northern Qi Dynasty; the Book of Northern Qi written by Tang Li Baiyao; The Book of Zhou, written by Tang Linghu Dedi, Cen Wenwen and Cui Renshi, as well as the Northern History written by Tang Li Master and Li Yanshou and his sons, recorded the history of the four regimes of the Northern Wei, Qi (including the Eastern Wei), Zhou (including the Western Wei), and Sui dynasties for 233 years.
Finally, the history books of the Sui and Tang dynasties, which record the history of the Sui Dynasty, include the "Book of Sui" edited by Tang Wei Zheng, and the participants in the compilation are Yan Shigu, Kong Yingda, Xu Jingzong and other well-educated people, so "Book of Sui" is one of the historical books with a relatively high level of historical revision. It records the history of 38 years from Emperor Wen of Sui to the second year of Emperor Yining of Emperor Gong of Sui.
So far (875 AD), the history books of the Tang Dynasty include the "Notes on the Entrepreneurship and Living of the Tang Dynasty" written by Wen Daya during the Tang Gaozu period, which records the history of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan from the beginning of the army to the occupation of Chang'an and the enthronement of the emperor. There is also the "Zhenguan Political Dignitaries" written by Wu Jing during the reign of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, which records the problems of Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other ministers in governing the government, the controversy, exhortation, and discussion of the ministers, and also records some major political and economic measures in the Zhenguan period.
There are also some books that record the region and the culture of the time in the Chinese historical area. Such as "Wu Yue Chunqiu", "Yue Jue Shu", "Jialan Ji", "The Legend of the Ancient Taoist Fa Xian from Chang'an to Tianzhu", "Notes on the Water Classic", "Yi Zhou Shu", "Tang Dynasty Western Regions" and so on.
After browsing it, Gao Yangjun thought that he should order someone to write a "History of Memel", a book that records the book from the beginning of the founding of the Qin Dynasty to Memel to the eventual death in Memel. She hurriedly ordered someone to invite An Tao. As soon as Antao came in, he complained:
"Princess, I'm still waiting for you big chiefs, and now you've called me over, so who will greet you big chiefs?"
Gao Yangjun smiled embarrassedly, and then told An Dao her thoughts and said:
"Uncle Antao, I plan for you to arrange for someone to compile a "History of Memel" to record the customs and humanistic beliefs of my Memel country. Then he wrote a biography for his father and the ministers of the time. What do you think? ”
When An Dao heard this, he patted his chest like Gao Yangjun and promised:
"Ahh That's it, no problem, I'll do it well."
"This matter, don't be in a hurry, take your time, and keep writing that I will ascend the throne and change the name of the country, and change the customs until I change customs," Gao Yangjun said
Antao nodded in agreement, and then he went about his business
"Let's go, let's go to the Jiuliu Shijia District to have a look, and take a look at the most brilliant and star-studded era of the Chinese ancestors."
Gao Yangjun took Tu Ying and Qin Muen slowly walked towards the Nine Streams and Ten Families District. The "Ten Schools" in the "Nine Streams and Ten Schools" refers to the ten schools that developed into schools among the hundred schools of Zhuzi, and the "Nine Streams" refers to Liu Xin of the Western Han Dynasty who removed the novelists in "Seven Strategies: Zhuzi Strategy" and left the other nine. Therefore, it is called "Nine Streams". "Nine Streams and Ten Families" came from here. Among the hundred schools of thought, the most widely spread are: Legalism, Taoism, Moism, Confucianism, Yin and Yang, Famous Scholars, Miscellaneous Families, Farmers, Novelists, and Vertical and Horizontal Families.
