Chapter 25: The World Map Appears

[At that time, the six countries plus the Qin State, a total of seven countries had their own languages and scripts, and the shape of the characters was extremely chaotic, which caused great inconvenience to the issuance and implementation of government decrees and exchanges between countries. When a new country is established, a unified script is the general trend. After Qin unified the Six Kingdoms, the unification of writing became a top priority.

And in terms of unifying the text, thanks to our migrant worker Xiao Li and... That Zhao Gao, who suffered a thousand cuts. 】

(barrage:) "Is there still something about Zhao Gao?" Good guy, I really didn't expect that. ”

"Isn't he a eunuch, and he actually participated in such a big project?"

"yes, don't you know? Zhao Gao was appreciated and promoted by Qin Shi Huang because of his beautiful handwriting and cleverness. ”

In the Xianyang Palace, the First Emperor felt a tense heart after hearing Zhao Gao's name.

Tianmu actually commented on Zhao Gao like this, does that mean that this person is not trustworthy?

Will the death of Qin II have anything to do with him?!

The more the First Emperor thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, and he actually handed over his favorite Hu Hai to Zhao Gao, and asked Zhao Gao to teach Hu Hai.

Now it seems that he was really wrong, and he didn't see the true face of this traitor earlier!

Zhao Gao was originally a horseman who drove a car, but he saw that this person was proficient in the law and could be used by him that he rose step by step.

He really never expected that this kid would start to plan to seek power and usurp the throne.

"Someone! Call Zhao Gao over! ”

The First Emperor paced back and forth in the room, and it took a long time for him to gradually ease his anger.

At this time, he also calmed down, if it was just an ambiguous sentence from the sky to conclude that Zhao Gao was disloyal, it would seem that he was reckless.

Let's listen to what is said in the canopy, this is all about Qin's destruction of the Six Kingdoms, and it is estimated that Qin II will die soon.

Although the First Emperor was very reluctant to hear that his ancestors had fought hard to give up the world to others, only now that he knew why Qin died, he could let his Great Qin avoid the doom of a short life and pass it on to future generations.

......

"Zhao Gao, Your Majesty wants to see you."

Zhao Gaozheng was taking a bamboo slip and preparing to go to Hu Hai's dormitory to teach him to read and write, but he never thought that he would be stopped by the people around the first emperor halfway.

He had heard everything that had been said in the canopy just now, and he had seen all the scrolling words.

Obviously, it was a task he and Li Si did together, why was Li Si affectionately called "Xiao Li" by Tianmu in the end, and when he mentioned him, it was as if he was saying something despicable, and even added the words "a thousand cuts".

Even when it comes to the matter of "book with text", people only know Li Si but don't know him.

He obviously has merit!

Or is the world inherently unfair? Do people from humble backgrounds deserve to be humiliated?

When he was a child, he was born in the hidden palace because of his mother's punishment, and he suffered a lot of shame and ridicule.

Their feet trampled on his face, and their horsewhips whipped him on his back, making him a plaything in this forbidden palace.

Since then, he has sworn that he Zhao Gao must get ahead in this life! Become a Master! Trample those who have humiliated him one by one!

He relied on his own ability to get to where he is today, and was appreciated by His Majesty to serve as the commander of the CRRC.

None of the self-proclaimed ministers in the court, those self-proclaimed noble princes, took him seriously, no!

Right now, even the goddess he has been admiring for the past two days is going to step on him.

How? Do you want to be despised by them if you are of low birth?

He Zhao Gao, he must become the highest and highest Zhao Gao!

......

"See Your Majesty."

The First Emperor looked at Zhao Gao who was kneeling in front of him, he really didn't expect that it was this kid who destroyed his Great Qin.

But being angry is angry, and now it's just your own inference.

There is no conviction without empirical evidence, and he, as the emperor, cannot take the lead in violating the laws of Qin.

I can't understand Zhao Gao now, but it's okay to move him farther away.

"Zhao Gao."

"The minister is here."

"It's also a credit to you and Li Si to compile the small seal together, if it weren't for the Tianmu mention, I would have forgotten about it. You don't have to go into the palace to teach Hu Hai homework these days, so you can rest at home for a while. As for the position of CRRC Governor, I have other plans. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

......

Exiting the hall, Zhao Gao withdrew from the respect and flattery on his face.

His Majesty said that he should rest, but it was just a disguised dismissal.

It turned out that because of his low status, just because of Tianmu's words, he could negate his efforts for so many years.

The world wants to pull him into the water, he wants to go to the top step by step, he wants to make no one in the world despise him anymore!

[Qin Shi Huang ordered Prime Minister Li Si, CRRC Fu Ling Zhao Gao, and Taishi Ling Hu Wujing and others to sort out the existing texts. Based on the Great Seal of the Qin Kingdom, Li Si simplified the complexity, abolished the variant, and referred to the characters of the Six Kingdoms to create a new script, which became the "Qin Seal", which is the small seal we know today. The small seal strokes are horizontal and vertical, round and even, and the thickness of the lines is basically the same. The spatial layout is balanced and symmetrical, tight at the top and loose at the bottom. The original complex text has been simplified to make it easier for people to write and read.

The unification of writing changed the situation of different characters in various countries during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

In addition, a more simplified font was produced on the basis of the small seal, that is, Lishu.

The small seal is the official script, and the official script is used for daily writing, and both scripts are promoted throughout the country. 】

"So now there are more than 200 countries in the world, and more than 7,000 languages are not betrayal of the First Emperor." ”

"Which kind-hearted person can give the ancestor a map of the world, let's destroy the foreigners first, I'm not kidding."

"Ancestor, I don't want to learn English anymore, save the child."

"Did I say anything to Persian?"

Qin Shi Huang: "What is a world map?" ”

"Stop talking nonsense, quickly map the old ancestor!"

"The old ancestor remembered to destroy Goryeo and Dongying in the east first, and then build a ship to go to the West!"

"That's right! Small days and kimchi country, they don't talk about martial arts! ”

The First Emperor had listened to the world map so many times in the canopy, and for the first time he had seen it in its true form.

He stretched out his hand to touch the colorful and dense world map at the bottom right of the canopy, and was worried that the words were too small to read clearly, but he didn't expect that the map would be enlarged more than ten times by himself in the next moment.

"There are so many lands in this world that don't belong to my Great Qin! Wait, what about my Great Qin? ”

The First Emperor searched carefully on the map, but did not find the land of Qin, but found many familiar place names in an area on the map.

Could it be that this is Daqin?

The First Emperor looked at the size of the land in Great Qin, and then at the size of the entire map, and immediately became angry.
