Section 1164 Ambition (2)
Sima Ji and Sima Tan are naturally doing far more than compiling a new calendar. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, Liu Che had already promised and agreed to some of their conditions.
Sima Tan hopes to get the support of the state, so as to collect historical materials from all over the world, and record Chinese history, original and objective, starting from Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor to this day.
It's a huge undertaking.
Without the support of the state and the efforts of twenty or thirty years, it would have been impossible to do so.
In history, Taishi Gong wrote the "Historical Records" with great perseverance.
But in fact, the historical records are not finished.
And there are a lot of gaps.
Many famous characters and classic stories are not recorded.
But this can't be blamed on Tai Shigong, he used his personal strength, dragged his stump, and worked silently for decades to write a historical record.
And on this matter, Liu Che naturally agrees.
Documenting history and getting to the bottom of it is indeed what a country should do.
As for Lord Sima Ji, Liu Che promised him that he would help him compile a Book of Heavenly Officials and a Book of Laws.
And Liu Che naturally supported Sima Jizhu to do this.
The Book of Heavenly Officials, ostensibly a book of astrologers who recorded the gods of the stars.
But in fact, in China, the heavenly officials are often used not in the field of religion, but in the field of astronomy, and will even have a profound impact on Chinese philosophy, humanities, and geography.
Shun said: Xuanji Yuheng, Qi Qizheng.
In fact, the study of astronomy in China has always been closely related to philosophy, humanities, geography and even the governing strategies of the rulers.
It has even penetrated into the core of the Hundred Schools of Thought and has become an indispensable part of Chinese culture.
The unified collation and compilation of an official "Book of Heavenly Officials" can indeed stabilize the rule and further emphasize the legitimacy of Liu Che's rule and rule.
As for the Book of Laws, it is even more remarkable.
Since ancient times, the king has legislated for things, and the law is the foundation of everything!
For China, there is a narrow sense of law and a broad sense.
The law in the narrow sense is the law of twelve yin and yang.
The six laws of yang are called laws, and the six laws of yin are called Lu, which is the study of the sound rhythm of musical instruments.
That's tall enough in itself.
Because Chinese etiquette and music are not separated, etiquette and music have been the core of the royal road since ancient times!
This reason alone is enough for the ruling class to be cautious.
Not to mention, the law in a broad sense is all-encompassing.
It is the embodiment of the laws of the operation of heaven, earth, stars, and all things, and is a projection of laws, decrees and policies.
Therefore, when the Han dynasty was first established, the first thing Liu Bang did after becoming emperor was to sacrifice to the soldier master Chi You, the second thing was to reward meritorious deeds, and the third thing was to order Xiao He to 'sub-decree'.
One of the most obvious moves was to abolish the Qin Dynasty's holy number twelve and replace it with five.
This is very important, on the surface, the Han Empire and the Great Qin are not all the way.
In addition, the sun and the moon are the key to the normal functioning of heaven and earth, and the key to the birth of all things in the world.
This gave Liu Che a chance to exploit loopholes, a chance to dope with private goods.
Therefore, after chatting with the two elders for a while, Liu Che deliberately used the excuse to split Sima Tan and the others.
Only he and Sima Ji were left to sit alone in the room.
"Your Majesty, but what if, do you need the old minister to die?" Of course, Sima Jizhu is not stupid, he naturally knows that Liu Che has separated all the others, and even his cronies, there must be something, and it is a great thing for him to do.
So he immediately bowed and said, "If the minister can do it, please ask Your Majesty to command!" ”
Liu Che looked at Sima Jizhu.
After pondering for a moment, he then took out a thin piece of paper that had been treasured for a long time from his bosom, handed it to Sima Jizhu and said, "Please find a way to record the text and table in the future when the elder compiles the Book of Laws......
Sima Jizhu took the thin piece of paper and looked at it, a little unclear, but after observing it carefully, he looked at Liu Che as if he had seen a ghost.
After a long time, he asked, "Your Majesty, where did this thing come from?" ”
Liu Che smiled, pointed to the sky, and said, "The bestowal of the heavens!" ”
"Don't ......be excited, old gentleman," Liu Che told him with a smile: "Sir only needs to append this Chinese to any place when compiling the Book of Laws in the future, even if it ......is a corner."
Liu Che looked at Sima Jizhu's eyes burning.
What is written on this piece of paper, in the present, is nonsense.
It can even be said to be a big rebellion.
But Liu Che knows that in the future, it will inevitably become a guiding light for China's natural science and physical chemistry leap.
This can be regarded as a golden finger left by Liu Che, a traverser, to future generations.
Its name is the periodic law.
Of course, not completely, and there may even be a lot of mistakes.
After all, after decades, what I learned in school has basically been returned to the teacher, and what I can still remember is the basic law of the periodic law of the elements.
Then these things and the periodic laws of the prophecy are explained in words that people can understand today.
For example, as the atomic number of an element increases, its metallicity decreases and its non-metallic property increases.
It is used as follows: Where the yang of the five elements increases, the gold decreases, and the other elements increase.
Anyway, I use words that can be understood and comprehended as much as possible, but I can't see them for the time being.
By the time China advances enough to discover the microcosm of the microcosm and explore it, it will only take a long time for future generations.
These words will certainly become a golden finger, which will greatly reduce the time and cost paid by the people of later generations in exploring the truth, and can also become a guiding light.
Of course, in order to prevent future generations from discovering this text hidden in the law book, Liu Che also prepared a backhand.
In the future, he will leave behind some testaments, some revelatory texts, hinting at others.
Like One Piece's famous saying: Want my wealth?
Then go find it!
I hid them all in these places!
Look carefully, you'll find it!
A prophecy of the treasure left behind by One Piece made the entire One Piece world boil.
So, how many people will look for the wealth of a holy king, a pioneer of the times?
Liu Che didn't know.
But since Qin Shi Huang begged for the elixir of immortality, how many emperors in later generations have diligently pursued it, knowing that it is a dead end, and they still use iron head skills to hit it.
Anyway, Liu Che knew that there would be countless people looking for and studying the words and hints he left behind.
This is his ambition for posterity.
Leave a plug-in for future generations, so that they can avoid some detours and find the road of science at the fastest speed.
Thus truly elevating the civilization of this country to a height beyond the reach of all other peoples. (To be continued.) )
