Chapter 34: Real Results
Fusu looked at the smashed "Thirty-six Strategies" that was torn apart by Huan Yan, and wanted to cry without tears, this is the first paper book in the world, he has been making four great inventions for so many years, and he has been torn up like this......
Fusu was collecting the confetti with his hands, and at the same time meditating in his heart, this general's temper is really stubborn. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But Huan Qi tore up the book, and it was not finished, and said loudly to Ying Zheng: "King, the old minister is not afraid of the Six Kingdoms, fighting for the Qin State, even if he dies on the battlefield, the old minister will never say anything." But every time the six countries are stronger, there will be one more variable on the battlefield, and if there is one more famous general in the six countries, our Qin country may have one more defeat. It doesn't matter what it does, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no matter how powerful a general is, he can't count it all and win undefeated, but in every war, it is not only the reputation of the general, but also the life of the soldier. I Huan Qi can be defeated, but I can't let my soldiers of Great Qin die in vain, and I hope that the king will think twice. ”
After finishing speaking, Huan Qi leaned down deeply, waiting for Yingzheng to speak.
Hearing this, Fusu was convinced, it turned out that this Huan Qi was a general who loved soldiers like a son, so he could only sigh deeply and look at Yingzheng quietly.
Ying Zheng was also moved by Huan Qi's words, and actually stood up from the throne, walked to Huan Qi's side, helped him up, and said with a straight face: "Thank you general for teaching me, these soldiers, fighting for my Great Qin, are worried about their lives at any time, and they are careless." After finishing speaking, he also bowed to Huan Qi to show his respect.
Huan Qi hurriedly bowed down, not daring to say anything.
Ying Zheng returned to the throne and said to Fusu, who was still gathering the pages below: "You care about state affairs, and your heart is commendable, but don't write this book for the time being, do you understand?" ”
Fusu had no choice but to bow down and obey.
The matter seemed to have been resolved, but Wei Yi didn't see it that way, only to see him slowly walk out of his position, bow to Ying Zheng, and say, "King, the prince still has something to present." ”
After speaking, he ignored Fusu, who was a little ignorant, grabbed the page in Fusu's hand, handed it to Zhao Gao, and motioned to him to present these things to King Qin in Zhao Gao's stunned eyes.
Ying Zheng looked at the scattered pages on the table, and couldn't distinguish the content inside, and he didn't quite understand what Wei Yi meant.
"Aiqing, what do you mean by this?"
"The king and General Huan only saw thirty-six strategies, but they didn't see this book." Even in the face of King Qin, Wei Yi was still cold-spoken, with a cold face, and after speaking, he was speechless, just signaled Fusu to speak, and then retreated to his position.
Fusu understood what Wei Yi meant at this time, and his mood became happy again.
"Father, what Master Wei means is that this book is not written on bamboo slips." Fusu explained.
"This is made by craftsmen in the palace, called paper, which can be used for writing, which is lighter and less troublesome than bamboo slips." Fusu didn't say at length how important the use of paper is, only an entry-level thirty-six tricks didn't have these "ancestors" to make so many twists and turns, he didn't believe in the benefits of paper, they couldn't see it.
Ying Zheng fiddled with the shredded paper on the table, thought silently, and soon ordered Zhao Gao to pass the shredded paper to the minister, but this time it was no longer limited to military generals, and Wenchen was also involved.
Fusu silently observed the reactions of these ministers, Huan Qi was not as excited as he was just now this time, staring directly at the piece of paper in his hand that was ripped by himself, trying to see what was mysterious in it, but he could only frown more and more tightly, beyond the things other than the war, he was a little confused.
Li Si stared at a piece of shredded paper in his hand, kept rubbing, and couldn't help but think of the days when a few years ago, when he was just a subordinate of Lu Buwei, he created italic characters with Fusu, and now that he thinks about it, Fusu's intelligence is not only far superior to ordinary people, but also frightening ordinary people. Over the years, strollers, italics, military chess, chess, small chess (backgammon), Monopoly...... and so on, even if it appears so often and so often, the "Thirty-six Strategies" that was just torn up by Huan Qi must be unusual, otherwise Huan Qi and King Qin would not have had such a big reaction, and Wei Yi would not have participated in it.
No matter what novel things he has come up with before, even if he adds the "Thirty-six Strategies" in Huan Qi's mouth, I am afraid it will not be as useful as this thin paper.
There was only a small piece of shredded paper in his hand, and he had just seen a neat book. The piece in his hand still has traces of cutting on the corners; There are also italicized characters on the paper that have become sentences, as if they were written in pine smoke ink; The paper is yellowish in color, and there are crumbs of bellflower in it, with a faint lime smell; It is slightly rough to start, much softer and more delicate than bamboo slips, and slightly brittle compared to silk silk, which can be folded or rolled into a roll.
Judging from these, the paper in Fusu's mouth should be used to replace bamboo slips and silk silk as new materials for writing, and the materials used should be bellflower or similar things, which are not difficult to manufacture in large quantities, so they should be time-saving and labor-saving than bamboo slips, and cheaper than silk silk; It can be mass-produced and easy to carry.
Thinking of this, Li Si couldn't help but think of the various changes that might occur after the appearance of paper: with paper, the transmission of government decrees was faster; The propagation of the Law was more effective; The dissemination of Zhuzi's articles is simpler; Students no longer have to sweat and learn to be rich......
If these speculations are true, then paper must be an invention that benefits the country and the people and has been passed down through the ages.
If Fusu knew Li Si's thoughts at this time, he would definitely be shocked, he relied on a piece of paper, not only guessed the production and role of paper, but also saw the historical merits of paper, although it was not complete, but it was not something that ordinary people could imagine, he himself had a foresight, a purpose, and a helper, it took several years to finally complete, were people in the pre-Qin period perverted?
The other ministers of civil and military affairs looked at the pieces of paper in their hands, some seemed to have gained, and some were puzzled, not knowing what Wei Yi and Yingzheng were doing.
Li Si looked around and found that no minister was willing to express his opinion, so he had to come out and open his eyes for his disciple.
"The minister congratulates the king, congratulates the Qin country, and congratulates the world."
After Li Si finished speaking, he didn't wait for everyone in the court to be stunned, so he re-sorted out his guess just now, and began to speak in the main hall, describing the grand scene of a piece of paper changing the world.
Li Si looked at the effect of his speech, and was moved, and in the even more stunned expression of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, Li Si continued: "Gongzi Fusu, born a sage; Its incarnation, thunder to help; The fame of wisdom is known and outside, and the act of filial piety is shown inside; If you are a disciple, you will be respectful, and if you are a slave, you will be righteous...... Therefore, the minister asked the king to seal the prince Fusu as the prince of Great Qin. ”
His set of praising Fusu's beautiful essay is catchy and done in one go, giving people the feeling that you have already been prepared. All the ministers in the court were thinking, could it be that this court captain was hinted by the king to have this discussion, but looking at the king's stunned expression, it didn't look like it at all.
But there was one person who didn't think about these things at all, and said directly: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”
