CHAPTER XXII

With excitement, Kong Jia followed Wang Ben to drive to Qin Xi's courtyard, at this time it was already very dark, it was almost dark, and the room was also lit with lights.

Kong Jia tidied up his clothes, and then walked into the courtyard with Wang Ben.

The housekeeper was cleaning up in the yard, and suddenly saw Wang Ben coming in with a person, so he stepped forward and asked, "General Wang, what is the important matter for my son-in-law tonight?" ”

Wang Ben pointed at Kong Jia and said, "This is Dr. Kong Jia..."

"Come and visit your lord." Kong Jia rushed to speak, in Kong Jia's opinion, the talent who created simplified Chinese characters must be a hidden old pedant.

However, the housekeeper said, "My lord is not here. ”

Wang Ben said: "What we want to see is your son-in-law. ”

"Okay, General Wang, I'll go and report it." So saying, the butler ran into the house.

Kong Jia looked at Wang Ben suspiciously, a little unclear.

Wang Ben didn't see Kong Jia's puzzled eyes, isn't this the place where His Majesty let him bring Kong Jia.

After a while, Qin Xi came out with doubts. According to history, Kong Jia should have been in Weidi, why was he suddenly in Xianyang? He also became Dr. Daqin, and now he came to him without warning.

"The juniors meet Dr. Kong, I don't know what Dr. Kong has to say?" Qin Xi arched his hand and said.

Although Kong Jia was a little unconvinced, he still asked, "You created simplified characters?" ”

Qin Xi suddenly understood, it turned out that he was here for this, and said: "It is written by the juniors, I don't know what advice the seniors have?" ”

"I don't dare to advise, can you let me see if there are any other simplified characters?" Kong Jia asked.

"Senior, please come with me."

Qin Xi brought Kong Jia into the house, only to see that the room was full of papers. Qin Xi picked up a small pile and said, "This is just written by the juniors, and the juniors are working hard." ”

Kong Jia looked at the corresponding Qin character next to each simplified character on the paper, and immediately understood what this simplified character was, and suddenly became a little excited.

Qin Xi saw Kong Jia staring at the words on the paper intently, so he sat down and continued to write.

Qin Xi dared to say that this time was the most written in his life, and if he returned to the future world, he would definitely become a professor of ancient Chinese translation or something.

After Kong Jia finished reading, he saw Qin Xi writing word by word under the candlelight, and he didn't bother with words, just watched quietly here, wanting to see what kind of simplified law it was.

Qin Xi's simplified Chinese character has directly skipped the evolution process of more than 2,000 years, and it is too difficult to find the rules in it.

However, after Kong Jia looked at it for an hour, he actually picked up a pen and wrote a traditional character, which simply shocked Qin Xi's jaw. However, traditional Chinese characters are still complicated, which is not what Qin Xi wants, so he taught Kong Jia to simplify it, and taught Kong Jia some of the skills of simplification.

Kong Jia is worthy of being one of the representatives of Confucianism, and he quickly became familiar with it, and wrote several simplified characters at once, and it was exactly the same as that of later generations.

The two of them wrote in the room until dawn, whether they discussed it with each other, and even changed some simplified characters to make it easier to write.

Wang Ben couldn't stand the atmosphere, so he went back early, but he was bitter to the housekeeper, and he was changing the lights for the two of them all night, and he had a dark circle under his eyes like the two of them.

After dawn, Qin Xi realized that it was dawn, and the two of them had written tens of thousands of words overnight, and they felt tired and had back pain at this time.

Looking at Kong Jia, who was still a little bit, Qin Xi said, "Dr. Kong, take a rest, I'll ask someone to prepare a room for you." ”

Kong Jia said: "Brother Qin, let's go and rest first, when I finish writing these, I will go and call Han Feiye over, let him also look at this simplified Chinese character, he will definitely be able to cheer up." ”

"Han Fei is not dead!" Qin Xi exclaimed.

Kong Jia glanced at Qin Xi and said, "Han Fei is naturally not dead, how could Gongzi say such a thing?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm too sleepy, I'm a little dizzy, I'll go to sleep first."

Qin Xi realized at this time that he may have come to a Qin Dynasty where history was already a little different, Han Fei was not dead, and Kong Jia entered Qin, these are the best proof.

And the First Emperor doesn't seem to be as brutal as recorded in history, and he can still listen to the words of his courtiers, does that mean that the First Emperor will not die ten years later? Is the rebellion at the end of Qin going to perish a few years later, and even because of what he is doing now, the Great Qin Empire will not die at all?

Thinking about it, Qin Xi fell asleep groggily.

And at this time, the new Qin law had already begun to be implemented in the territory of Great Qin. Based on the law of the Shang monarch, part of the punishment was reduced.

Torture has been replaced by prison reform, the joint sitting system has been abolished, and a system of responsibility for sheltering has been implemented, whereby those who shelter prisoners will not be executed, but will be sentenced to prison for reform.

Private fighting is still guilty, but the degree of guilt is judged by the degree of darkness, and the light case is imprisoned and educated, and the serious case is imprisoned for reform, and the maximum is the death penalty.

······

Many punishments have been commuted, and the upper collar around the necks of people in the world has finally loosened a little, allowing the frightened people to breathe.

As soon as the new law was issued, it immediately caused a shock in the world, and the scholars who came to Xianyang were originally here to discuss the reform of the country of Great Qin, and now the promulgation of the new Great Qin Law also indicates the beginning of the reform of the country.

The new law of the Great Qin has been affirmed by most people this time, and the voices of the schools of Confucianism and Mohism criticizing the Great Qin law are much quieter, and the Legalists also praise it as the law of peace and security, the law of benefiting the people, and the law of governing the country.

And the leader of the new law, Daqin, claimed to be the prime minister of the dynasty Li Si, and suddenly Li Si's personal height rose again. What's more, the honorific title of plum was proposed.

On the other hand, Li Si has been keeping a low profile behind closed doors, and most of the scholars and everyone who came to visit him were turned away by Li Si because he focused on revising the governing law and changing the law.

In a mansion in Xianyang City, all the members of the former royal family of Han Guo live here, and their every move is monitored by Daqin, and the only benefit is that they live a stable life without worrying about food and clothing, and they still retain the temple.

Lao Han Wang and the others lived a comfortable life, and they also accepted their fate, but they looked much more energetic than when they were kings before.

Han Fei is the only one who wears his hair all day long, like a walking corpse, except for drinking, he drinks alcohol, and ignores his father Han Wang and others.

Han Fei now has a lot of talent, but after Han Guo was destroyed, Han Fei hid his talent and learning, and he only wanted to be a waste of wine bags and rice bags.

After learning that Great Qin had promulgated the new law, Han Fei took a sip of wine and said in a low voice: "Great Qin, Great Qin!" Great Qin's 10,000-year-old life is also counted. ”

raised his head and looked in the direction of Li Si's mansion, and said with a smile: "Li Si, Li Si, this change of governance is probably the last thing you will do in the position of prime minister." ”

At this time, a Han Guo eunuch came to report and said: "Childe, a gentleman named Kong Jia wants to see Childe. ”

"Kong Jia?" Han Fei immediately got up and said as he walked: "That's my senior uncle, you must not be rude in the future." ”
