Chapter 132: I Didn't Hear It, I Want to Hear It
And the state of Qin is an abnormal country.
The First Emperor was an abnormal king.
Therefore, the courtiers were surging and attacked Li Si in turn.
Some are selfish, others are right.
But most of the generals felt that what Li Si said was right, because the Qin State relied on these to win the world.
These generals are not as able to speak as Wenchen, but the word "color" that they shouted below can go straight from the Xuanyao Hall to the nine clouds, which is enough to bring Li Si confidence.
This book-burning controversy, which was caused by the death of Confucianism Chun Yu Yue, lasted for about a stick of incense.
Then the ministers had a tacit understanding that they all stopped, and they all got up and saluted the First Emperor.
"Your Majesty, please."
Everything that needs to be said is almost done, and the final decision is still in the hands of the First Emperor.
During this period, the First Emperor listened carefully to the accounts of his subordinates.
If you listen partially, it will be dark, and if you listen to both, it will be clear.
Although the First Emperor had already decided, if what his subordinates said was indeed reasonable, the First Emperor would change it.
But in the end, the First Emperor didn't hear any opinion that would make him change his mind.
The First Emperor was an emperor, and what he pursued was the stability of Qin's rule and how to settle down in the shortest possible time.
What the ministers thought about teaching and educating people, freedom of speech, etc., were not considered by the First Emperor before the unification of the country.
Therefore, even though almost the vast majority of civil servants opposed the "book burning", the first emperor still wanted to do it.
Whatever is right, no matter how many people oppose it, do it.
The domineering of the First Emperor is more than ten times stronger than what Ying Fusu has just learned.
"There are constant controversies in various places, and the smoke is burning, all because it is not like the old Qin people, who only practice farming all their lives, and they are also wars. I have also made it clear what the princes want, but everything should be done after Daqin is stable. In this matter, according to what Zuo Xiang said, he burned the book of a hundred schools and left a lone copy in the doctor's office. ”
"As for the books on agriculture, medicine, and divination, they should also be burned together. All the old books, not a single one remains. ”
If Li Si said this, the voices of the ministers at the top of the Xuanyao Hall would be able to open up for him.
If you don't have a copy, what do you think?
In the future, it is really only based on experience, memory teaching, and hand-in-hand teaching?
Is it a madness?
Here's an example.
In the medical system, there are thousands of kinds of herbs, and the characteristics and curative effects of each herb are tried by the ancestors of the doctors.
These thousands of herbs are not written down to take disciples, but only taught by words and deeds.
How many years will this be taught?
Thirty or forty years of foundation.
In ancient times, the mortality rate was very high, the war was in chaos, diseases were rampant, robbers and robbers were killed, etc., even if the healer could live to sixty, he had to burn high incense.
After thirty or forty years of study, and then thirty or forty years of leading disciples, each generation of healers must ensure that they live to be 60 to 80 years old.
If you don't live to be sixty, it will inevitably lead to a mutilated inheritance.
This is still not counting the discrepancies caused by learning and the errors caused by word of mouth.
In fact, discrepancies and errors are bound to occur.
Is it difficult to live to sixty, but in the Qin Dynasty, it was difficult.
Due to the limitations of medical care, war, environment and other factors, the average life expectancy of the Qin Dynasty was only 20 years.
If the doctor wants to live to the age of 60 and above, it cannot be realized, which will lead to the inability of the doctor to pass on.
If doctors cannot be passed on, it will lead to the lack of medical care in the social system, which will lead to social collapse and life expectancy will continue to decrease.
What happens in the doctor's house will never be an exception, but a common thing.
Today, whoever says this sentence is not the First Emperor, and if it is replaced by any person, the ministers can directly scold.
But it was the First Emperor who said this, and he was making a decision, not the First Emperor who wanted the ministers to discuss.
Therefore, the ministers were silent.
In addition to the prestige of the First Emperor, there is also faith - the change of the Qin system, and the courtiers have doubled their love for the First Emperor.
"Bring it up."
The First Emperor gave an order.
At the entrance of the Xuanyao Palace, two eunuchs who had been waiting for a long time entered.
The two eunuchs were one after the other, with a flat pole on their shoulders, and in the middle of the pole was a big basket, and in the basket were dozens of bamboo slips.
"One for two, all the princes take their own."
Didn't you just say that you were going to burn all the books in the world, why did you put on another basket of books?
The ministers were puzzled, but they all had high execution skills, and they took the books on their own.
Soon, for every two people, Qin Chen had a roll of bamboo slips in his hands.
Ying Cheng restrained Ying Fusu and couldn't get it, but he also had a copy in his hand, which was taken for him by Ying Lu, the third prince of Great Qin.
"Third child, it's futile for you to do this." Ying Chengcheng looked at Ying Jiang Lu, who was gathered next to him and did not leave, and said: "Uncle made it clear to you today, your eldest brother behaved very much to my heart today, and you have no chance with me."
Boom~
The meandering water has never stopped, and the delicacies and delicacies have been flowing with the waves.
Ying Jiang Lu took a bottle of wine from the running water and drank it all.
"It's better for the eldest brother to be Qin II than other brothers to be Qin II, at least I'm not worried about being killed, I'll still be a general, but uncle."
Ying Jianglu's face was filled with unwillingness.
"Can you let Jiang Lu understand in his heart, where am I missing? How many palace maids are missing? ”
Ying Chengcheng could see that the words of the third nephew who had no intention of taking the throne were sincere.
The last unwilling look on his face was just asking for an answer.
Ying Cheng ordered some bamboo slips and asked his third nephew to spread them out for him.
"You are a human being, I like to go sideways, and I don't want to climb high step by step with my feet on the ground. Acting like a royal brother, life and death do not need others to speak, but can be arbitrarily decided. But you didn't have the adventures of your uncle, and you didn't suffer from the chaos of your royal brother's childhood. ”
"I'm talking to you too much about your questions now, and most of them don't listen, so I'm just looking for a few answers. If you are the second emperor of Qin, your brothers and sisters will serve. ”
"If they are not convinced, they will be subdued."
"You see, the first thing you think about is violence, not why they don't obey you."
"I, Great Qin, am the world's most powerful martial arts, what's wrong with thinking about it?"
"Because you want to be a keeper, not a pioneer."
Ying Cheng squinted, but the words he spit out carried the breath of Jin Ge Iron Horse, which scorched Ying Jianglu's eyes.
"Your father and uncle are not dead, and the war will be over in our brother's generation. Qin II was not an emperor who expanded his territory, but an emperor who defended his business and construction. The way of civil and military affairs is to relax and relax, and the same is true for governing the country. ”
"For the sake of the unification of China, I can accept the implementation of temporary militarism in order to improve my combat strength. But militarism must not continue, because it is wrong, deformed, and will send the country to destruction. ”
"Then why didn't my uncle become Qin II? On the prosperity of the country and the strengthening of Qin, and the construction of the industry, even the father and the emperor are not as strong as the uncle. After the death of King Wuxian Juding, he passed the throne to King Zhaoxiang, and my Qin State has always had the tradition of brother to brother. ”
I am not the emperor, I have no official position, I am dashing, and I have everything in glory and wealth.
When I became an emperor, I didn't enjoy much at all, and I had to go to work every day, and there were no holidays for 365 days, I was crazy?
"Uncle is only four years younger than your father, and when your father is not there, there is a high probability that your uncle will not be there."
Ying Cheng Cheng is a serious way.
When the uncle and nephew whispered these few words, the ministers had already looked at the bamboo slips in their hands.
The content on the bamboo slips is very easy to understand, and it is not obscure at all, because they are all the simplest Qin characters.
This is a copy of the "Simplified Chinese Seal Comparison Table 1".
The ministers looked at the comparison table, and they were very clear about the big seal at the top.
But the "words" made up by a few strokes under the big seal are really a little ignorant.
Is this the word?
How could it be written like that?
Which country's script is this?
Is there a country in the world?
What does Your Majesty mean by what you want us to see?
After most of the ministers such as the First Emperor raised their heads, there was no need for the ministers to discuss this time, and the First Emperor directly came to a conclusion.
"This is a simplified Chinese character created by Cheng Chan, I think about it, within a country, how can the language not be understood? How can seven languages be used together in a country? Zhu Gong first learned simplified characters, and I wanted to implement simplified characters and abolish the original Seven Kingdoms script. ”
"In the future, in the territory of Qin, simplified characters will be used for writing. Those books on medicine and divination were transcribed by the government in simplified Chinese and then sent to the people. ”
I see.
Your Majesty is far-sighted.
It turns out that the main purpose of book burning is this.
In order to unify the text, it makes sense to let the world be unified as quickly as possible.
The simplified Chinese character invented by Chang Anjun?
What the hell is this!
Can this also be called a word?
Is this aesthetically pleasing?
Where is the word?
This character doesn't feel like a person at all.
The ministers' eyes were all projected on Ying Chengchan, and there was no trace of good emotion in their eyes when they looked at Ying Chengchan.
It's not happy, disgusted, it's okay, what kind of mess are you making......
"Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be carefully considered, can this also be called a word? Only Chang'anjun understands it, and it is not feasible. ”
"Your Majesty, the word Zhao is known for its strength, and the word Qin is known for its atmosphere. There are only a few strokes of this simplified character, how can it be called a word? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister is not opposed to the unification of the language, but why do you want to use the 'simplified Chinese characters' invented by Chang'anjun, the big seal is indispensable?"
One courtier after another began to speak.
When Ying Cheng received the angry eyes of many courtiers, he transferred all his angry glances to the First Emperor.
At the moment when Ying Jiang Lu helped him open the bamboo slip, Ying Cheng Cheng himself was a little sluggish.
He told the First Emperor that he wanted to change the doctor's signature, to become more in line with the times, and to be more acceptable to the people of the world, but to retain the original character.
Ying Chengcheng felt that he had gone too far.
Ying Chengcheng didn't expect his imperial brother to be even more excessive, his mother's words have not been changed and not moved, it is completely the modern words he handed over.
What are you playing, Brother Huang?
Can these people accept it?
That's spanning 2,000 years!
The First Emperor gave Ying Chengcheng a look of "peace of mind, everything has a brother", and then continued to listen to the speeches of the ministers, and continued to watch the ministers bury Ying Chengcheng openly and secretly.
Ying Cheng almost exploded.
You reassure me, you do things, you throw a look and are indifferent, what do you mean?
Wu thinks that this word is very good, and it can be implemented throughout the country. Chang'anjun has this merit, which is the luck of the world, and Wu respects Chang'anjun. ”
Meng Wu completely let go of himself, and got up in high spirits.
He can't say what's good, he can't see what's good, anyway, it's something that Yingcheng Cheng made out, and he Mengwu has to help the field.
Picking up the wine bottle, in front of the ministers in the palace, Meng Wu drank it in front of Yingcheng and cooing.
Uncle Wu, what kind of mess are you making!
Ying Chengsu pressed Ying Fusu with one hand and got up with a wine bottle in the other, and he was also in high spirits.
"Hahaha, thank you, General Meng."
Wucheng Marquis Wang Jian should have been the first to be sealed today, but he was stirred up by Chun Yuyue, and was interrupted by Yingfu Su, and now he is burning books to implement simplified characters.
This veteran, who has always been wise enough to protect himself, looked at his old friend Meng Wu who suppressed him a few days ago, and he couldn't get angry.
"Humph!"
Marquis Wucheng snorted coldly and threw his son Wang Ben and the bamboo slips he shared into the man-made river.
Boom~
The bamboo slips flowed slowly along the river with the delicacies, and the ink stained the water a little black.
"How is this kind of one-man son different from a child's graffiti? Brother Meng still wants to act cautiously, and the words can be practiced for thousands of years! ”
When the ministers saw it, their eyes lit up.
Wu Chenghou stood up?
That's with a wave!
Papa~
All the Qin ministers who opposed the implementation of the simplified Chinese character of Yingcheng Chan threw all the bamboo slips in their hands.
The running water is ......la-
Too many bamboo slips were piled up, and this man-made river was directly blocked.
Submit a book to break the river!
Wang Jian was stunned!
As the first person in the Great Qin military merit and the first Marquis of Great Qin, Wang Jian has a great and huge influence.
But no matter how great his influence is, it is also in the army, not in these civil servants.
The reason why these Wenchen are obedient is still the reason before, to find a head bird with enough weight to follow.
If there is something, His Majesty will hit the first bird, and everyone will be happy if there is nothing to do, just like Kui.
But Kui Xiang is a voluntary charge, Wang Jian is not.
The old general just wants to avenge Meng Wu, and he doesn't care if it's simplified or not.
The Wang family fights wars, not teaches, and likes to use whatever script they like.
When Wang Jian threw the book, he didn't think that there would be such a scene.
The soldiers are on the battlefield, and it is laborious to be in the officialdom, how could Wang Jian think that these civil servants are so shameless?
"What the Marquis of Wucheng said is extremely true! I'm not as thorough as Wucheng Hou. ”
"Your Majesty, the prince has made great contributions to the Qin State, and his meaning cannot be ignored!"
"The old general understands the righteousness and the righteousness."
“……”
Wang Jian never imagined in his life that one day he would be able to dominate the entire Wenchen.
These bastards!
Ying Chengcheng was originally very unhappy, but now that he sees Wang Jian unhappy, he is very happy.
It's not just me who is unlucky!
Tsk, this court has been so bloody from beginning to end!
What kind of dead advice, direct advice and the like are all fake.
Push a person of sufficient weight to the front, whether he lives or dies.
Ensuring one's own safety first, and then talking about appeals, this kind of gameplay is the eternal truth.
"Ahem!"
Ying Chengcheng coughed twice and looked at the First Emperor.
Hurry up!
Don't make fun of me!
The First Emperor ignored him.
I didn't hear it, but I want to hear it.
