[It is recorded in the "Records of the First Emperor of Qin": "The ministers asked the historian to burn it if they were not Qin Ji."] If you are not a doctor, you dare to have a collection of poems, books, and hundreds of languages in the world. There are those who dare to say poetry and books to abandon the market. The ancient is not the present. Whoever sees that he does not raise the line is guilty of the same crime. The order is not to burn for 30 days, and it is a city. Those who do not go, the book of medicine divination and tree planting. If you want to learn the law, take the officials as teachers. ”

From this, we can see that there are three main types of book burning: historical books recorded by non-Qin historians, Confucian "Shangshu", "Book of Songs" and Baijia languages. However, there is also a sentence in front of it: "It is not a doctor's office".

Therefore, some people will understand that except for the doctor's officer, who can keep the "Book of Songs" and "Book of Songs", the rest of the people have these two books in their hands and will be burned. It is not to completely let the poems and books be lost, but to prevent people from privately storing these books. 】

[Of course, there are also scholars in modern times who hold the opposite opinion, they believe that Sima Qian wrote an inverted sentence in the historical records, and the correct word order should be: "Those who dare to have Tibetan poems, books, and hundreds of languages in the world are not doctors' official positions.] ”

They believe that this sentence means that poems and books are not in the hands of the doctor's office, so there is no such thing as an official collection of books that cannot be burned.

However, the doctor of the Qin Dynasty was already in charge of the country's ancient and modern historical affairs and books and regulations, so the second statement could not stand scrutiny.

We now know what books are burned, but why are these books burned? And why are these books burned? 】

Chun Yuyue was proud after hearing this, and he almost had to tell the reason for Tianmu. What else could it be? Isn't it that Li Si is a person who has no talent and no virtue to mislead His Majesty.

Li Si, you kid, you are finally defeated in my hands.

[There are two main reasons, one is because the people in the private school of the people are dying by themselves, and the other is because Chun Yuyue's thoughts cannot keep up with the advancing times. 】

Chun Yu Yue: ???

Didn't Tianmu say that Li Si had ulterior motives? Doesn't it say that the burning of books will leave a stench for 10,000 years? How can it be said that his thinking is not up to date with the times?

Chun Yuyue was a little difficult to accept for a while, but soon he made excuses for himself.

The canopy must be trying to rise and suppress!

What about his backwardness in thinking? Anyway, Li Si's idea of burning books is very bad.

Although I don't know what is going on with Confucianism, let His Majesty know that it is a wrong practice to suppress Confucianism, and the status of Confucianism will be mentioned in the future.

[First of all, those in private school collude with each other in private, they oppose the system of the state, and oppose the orders of the state. Even as soon as the emperor issued an edict, those who studied privately rushed up like flies seeing a ball of dung, trying to distort the opposition to the edict with the history books they had learned. What's even more odious is that they also do one thing in front of them and one thing behind their backs, and they are loyal courtiers above the court, and once they leave the court and enter the market, they become propagandists against the speech, and they wantonly smear the image of the Qin Dynasty.

Isn't this a proper reactionary? Such behavior and such remarks are not allowed in any dynasty or generation, who will the first emperor do if he doesn't do it? !

I don't believe it, if the previous monarchs of the six countries encountered such a thing, they could also sit idly by and ignore it? Or is it a little more outrageous, to be polite?

From this point of view, book burning is an ideological movement.

Another strong promoter is the debate between Li Si and Chun Yuyue about whether to teach the ancient or the present. Chun Yuyue was a traditional Confucian, and he believed that we should respect the ancients and implement the feudal system, otherwise even if the county system was implemented, the country would not be able to last for a long time.

Chun Yu is more straightforward when he speaks, but how can any leader like to directly scold himself and openly oppose his own policies?

On the contrary, Li Si is more experienced, the first emperor likes to slander, so he came to slander, coaxed the leader to be obedient, and finally agreed to his proposal.

Migrant worker Xiao Li once again succeeded in the office struggle. 】

Hearing this, Chun Yuyue sneered at Li Si even more. If he is not reused by His Majesty because he can't make sycophants, then he shouldn't be in this official position!

[Jokes are jokes, in fact, Li Si is also reasonable and very convincing when he refutes. He said: "If we blindly follow the ancient system, then we will really disturb the people's hearts and destroy the country." At that time, the power in the hands of the monarch will become smaller and smaller, and the power of the courtiers to form parties for personal gain will become greater and greater, and then it will become the next Zhou Dynasty, and the world will become a chaotic situation again. ”

Therefore, in order to prevent the people's disagreement, Li Si proposed to Qin Shi Huang to burn books, and the first emperor also adopted it. The infamy of book burning has spread ever since.

After that, the Qin Dynasty adopted an education mechanism with officials as teachers, sending officials to explain the law to the people, and no one could discuss Confucian poems and books privately.

In fact, the first emperor's starting point was good, but the means were still a bit extreme, and the "book blackmail" greatly restricted people's thoughts. It is not conducive to the prosperity and development of culture. 】

[From our perspective today, both Confucianism and Legalism have their advantages and limitations, and neither side is conducive to the development of the country. The two should be combined, and in simple terms, it is "Ideological Morality and Legal Cultivation." The law is the minimum standard for the norms of personal conduct, but it should not be the only standard. Morality is an internal norm of the individual, but it is not a substitute for the coercive role of law. 】

(barrage:) "Huh? How did Chun Yuyue manage to be so confident? The lessons of the Ming Zhou Dynasty are clearly laid out there, how did he say that the county system will destroy the country? ”

"There's some God's perspective upstairs. Chun Yuyue is a native of Shandong, and he can be regarded as a typical Confucian student. Confucianism pays attention to respecting the ancients and recovering oneself. It can only be said that his thoughts are in line with Confucianism, but they are not in line with the society at that time. ”

"Han Gaozu": "Who dares to oppose the county system?!" ”

In 214 BC, inside the Xianyang Palace.

The First Emperor hurriedly summoned all the doctors and officials, and even Li Si, who had just left, turned back at this time.

The canopy of heaven told the great events related to the survival and prosperity of the country, and these people hurriedly recorded what the canopy said with pen and ink.

The First Emperor still thought that Confucianism was a doctrine that disturbed people's hearts, and he did not understand what its charm was.

But since it was mentioned in the canopy, he had to pay attention to it.

It seems that Fusu must be summoned back as soon as possible.

This kid has always admired Confucianism, and I don't know what he will think about it.

The panic contained in the calm did not affect the controversy at the court banquet in 213 BC.

Chun Yuyue now seems to have been given a blow by Tianmu, he can't believe that his strategy has not been recognized by Tianmu!
